Chapter 969 - Restoration project
First of all, Jason didn't really understand what Kiat wanted from him.
However, after he threw him a quizzical look, Kiat explained to him a bit which made Jason understand the task, if only partially.
"We love nature, and don't líke to greedily utilize all the natural resources just because we can.
Because of that, we leave behind large fields of land to allow other beasts including Rocs to inhabit freely.
This, however, leads us to require far more places to inhabit than other races that don't allow wild beasts to inhabit their planets.
You might not know about it, but our race started to expand in multiple Stellar systems a century ago.
As you already saw a few days ago, we even built a base on Manyr as the livable space is beginning to fall short in comparison to our ever-increasing population.
However, the base on Manyr is not the only one we've built. In fact, we even expanded our territory to the Keriac Stellar system.
I'm not sure if that tells you something about our progress, but you might have heard about the Home of the Beast Gods, Tagran? It's the second biggest planet in our Universe, rich in the three cultivation energies and it is under the control of several Beast Gods!
Based on our sources, not a single intelligent race reigns the tiniest piece of land there.
But that's not exactly important for us right now, because the planet we wanted to reach is not Tagran, but one of the planets in the same Stellar system!
Unfortunately, Lyina, the planet we found a world bridge to, is mostly corroded by dark and impure energies that are decaying the pure and overflowing cultivation energies on the planet's surface!
As such, no intelligent race that lives above the surface was able to settle down there, even though the entire planet was decently developed.
There are multiple things we don't know about this planet, but what we have figured out is that you might be able to help us cleanse the dark and impure energies, thereby freeing the overflowing cultivation energies of the pollution.
Through this, we would be the first race to colonize Lyina, and have an upper hand over the other races that would possibly help us gain supremacy over this planet.
The size of the planet would be enough to allow our race to not worry about expanding our territory for several thousand years!"
It looked like the Sacred Elvyr wanted to divulge much more, but after seeing Jason and Jennifer's expressions, Kiat quieted down.
He was sure that the mass of information he had bombarded on the couple was quite a lot.
As such, he gave them some time to process everything.
Several minutes passed in silence, but Jeniffer knew that Jason's brain was rattling.
"So, the Queen believes that my Divine energy can clean the dark and impure energies?"
Jason's conclusion was simple, and it hit the bull's eye.
"You could say so. Our energy is similar to divine energy, but it's certainly not on par with that of the Celestia race. If you want to put it like this, our Lesser Divine energy is barely potent enough to cleanse some of the impure energies.
It is not enough to allow Elvyrs, the younger generation, let alone the older generations to live on Lyina!
We, Sacred Elvyr can stay there for decades or even centuries, but cultivation on Lyina is not possible in the planet's current state, either."
Jason nodded his head before throwing a short glance at Jennifer, who returned his gaze before forcing a smile on her lips.
A moment later, he turned his head back to Kiat,
"So you want me to cleanse the dark and impure energy all over the planet which would be sufficient enough to allow you to inhabit a gigantic space and continue to expand for thousands of years…in exchange for a few rare and exotic materials and the SMALL favor, I owe your race…is that correct?"
Initially, Jason had been quite fond of the Queen, Kiat, and possibly even of the entire race, but what they demanded from him was simply too much.
If the information about the size of Lyina was correct, it would take him centuries to clean the entire planet and get rid of the dark and impure energies.
And that was under the condition that his Divine energy could really cleanse all of the impurities in a perfect manner!
It was not like he had many things to do to begin with as he wanted to become stronger, and nothing else.
However, he was pretty sure that pursuing a mundane task for centuries was not what he wanted to do.
Kiat could roughly follow the train of thought Jason was likely to have in mind.
This made him nod his head before he tried to convince him,
"I know that we ask quite a lot from you, but if everything goes according to the plan we had in mind, you will only require a century to cleanse the entire planet in a perfect manner!
The vast majority of Sacred Elvyrs have already cleansed a large portion of the dark and impure energies, and you would be the final piece we need to make it work.
It is obvious that this task is daunting, considering that you are a single individual, but your help would elevate our status exponentially.
Lyina would become the biggest planet under our reign and control as long as you decide to help us!
Please help us with the Restoration Project!! It means far more to our race than you might think!!"
For other Cultivators, a century might not be considered much, but Jason had yet to reach the age of 30.
As such, he couldn't help but knit his brows when he looked at Kiat.
'The materials Jennifer and I require need, at most, a few decades before I can acquire them with my own efforts…'
Jason knew that he was being greedy right now, but wasting a 100 years just to return a small favor and receive some ingredients he could procure without anyone else's help in a shorter period was certainly an unprofitable deal.
It was easy to read Jason's thoughts, and, in fact, Jennifer too seemed to agree with him.
If they were to focus on cultivating for an entire century, they would be able to reach the Specta stage easily as their cultivation speed was already high.
In fact, they could accelerate it by practicing the Kanadi of a Primordial technique for a decade, before continuing to cultivate.
This would allow them to cultivate at a speed that was manifold higher than it was currently.
At the same time, Jason would be able to search for the necessary items to allow Solaris to evolve to a Tier-2 Origin flame!
Thinking about all the things Jason required, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly, but suddenly he got a simple idea!
After giving it some more thought, his golden eyes began to gleam up.
"I'm in!"
The simple words he said astonished not only Kiat as he suddenly blurted them out, shocking Jennifer as well for she had been certain that Jason would reject their offer!
"Really? You're willing to help us?? That's great!!" Kiat exclaimed, but immediately shut his mouth and attempted to put on a poker face.
However, it was just a moment later that he seemed to recall something.
"Of course, we will provide you far more resources than the items you just named..ahh and by the way, Jason…Do you want to talk to your father? The Queen told me that she can establish a connection to Celestia Yaldra, if you are willing, that is!"
