Attribute Farming System-Chapter 106: The Lineage Treasure of the Falazars
Sensing something that tried extremely hard to keep itself hidden, Knox activated his System Sight without turning around. A System Interface then flashed before his wary gaze:
{[Leera Lawson (Aqua Arbiter)]}
[Cultivation: Early Soul Transformation Realm]
[Age: 528]
[Cultivation Talent: Early-Heaven]
[Main Technique: Aquafina Armageddon]
[Mood: Intrigued]
'There's actually a Soul Transformation Realm Expert here???' Knox questioned, a bit of uncertainty festering inside his heart. 'This definitely complicates things.'
However, that was when he saw a segment of her System Interface that related to relationships. At first, he thought nothing of it, but that was only until he came across a name that couldn't be any more familiar if it wanted to be.
[Special Profession: Master of Nyx Falazar (the Eldest Daughter of the Falazar Count Household)]
'That woman is very, very powerful, Master.'
Rayzer's concerned voice came from the Spatial Sack that Knox carried around. The existence of the Aqua Arbiter put him on edge.
'Tell me something I don't know, numnut,' Knox rolled his eyes. 'Even with the addition of my Sword of the End, Partial Lesser Dragon King Bloodline, and Sky 1 Lower Outer God Physique, I highly doubt I'm her match. After all, from the looks of it, she can even fight above her Realm.'
To make matters worse, the Aqua Arbiter wasn't even the only Soul Transformation Realm Master hiding among the crowd. A closer look around was all Knox needed to discover multiple such hidden powerhouses.
The Sword Saint, the Blade King, and the… King of the Water Kingdom…?
Putting aside the surprise he felt upon seeing an inconspicuous hooded man covertly blending in with the sea of Cultivators, Knox confirmed the existence of four Soul Transformation Realm Powerhouses. Although this included the Aqua Arbiter, it was still an amount that astounded Knox.
'I was under the assumption that there were no Soul Transformation Realm Cultivators in the Water Kingdom, but this little gathering has opened my eyes to the truth.'
Upon further inspection, Knox realized something else.
They were all… staring at him…
'Well, shit,' he cursed. 'Staying low-key has been thrown out the window. Then again, with that mysterious Void Refining Realm Grandmaster now hunting me, I suppose my low-key career in the Elemental Nations ended right then and there.'

Now Knox had no choice but to showcase all that he was worth. He did this in hopes of making his ascension to higher heights all the smoother.
Either go big or go home!
It was around this point in time that people began noticing the arrival of the other Devilstar Secret Realm Trial Takers.
"They've returned!"
"Nala, Princess Maya, and the rest have made it back from the Secret Realm!!"
Hearing the name of his daughter, the disguised King Waters shifted his gaze in a particular direction. "Where did the Secret Realm go…?" he wondered. "Could it be…?"
King Waters glanced at the nonchalant Knox but saw no indication of him having done anything with the Secret Realm.
Was it just his imagination?
He himself wasn't sure, but he knew without a doubt in his mind that the young, otherworldly genius was concealing innumerable secrets.
It was just a gut feeling, but for some reason, it was more fact than mere conjecture for him.
"Dear Daughter," Count Bonanier called out as he flew up to a girl with crazy-looking black eyes. "Come and give Daddy a hug."
Without sparing him even a single glance, Cela passed by her father's outstretched arms, where she then started fervently screaming.
"Where's my Darling~!? Darling, where are you~!?"
"No, Big Bro… Crazy lady incoming," Lily cautioned from inside Knox's Spatial Sack. "Be careful. Protect your rear."
"Why my rear…?"
Lily's expression suddenly turned very serious. "Uncle Ray told me the crazier the woman, the more likely they were to get you from behind with a sword of their own! Must be wary, he says!"
Silence…
"M-Master, you have to believe me, I—"
*Thwack!*
A gigantic illusory gold Innate Energy palm flattened Rayzer into the artificial land that Knox had placed in the Half-step Saint Grade Spatial Sack he picked up from the Moleseum on his way out. It was fair to say that Unc Ray was knocked out cold, froth leaking from his mouth.
"From now on, don't listen to that Uncle of yours," Knox instructed the innocent, baby-faced Lily. "He's not right in the head, you see."
Lily was a little puzzled, but she nonetheless nodded. "Uncle Ray shtupid, yes?"
"Yes."
'Boohoo!' Rayzer cried with a mouthful of dirt, grievances flooding his heart.
Ignoring the idiot, Knox refocused on the tumultuous matter at hand. The Water Deity was looking at him as if he were ready to dig in, and as a straight MILF lover, this was simply inexcusable.
'Even with the arrival of those kiddos, these older brats are still dead set on gunning for me.' Knox's hold on his nagikatana tightened. 'Should I attack them first? Or would it be wiser to wait for them to strike, then strike back and dub it self-defense—'
Before he even finished the thought, a crazy amount of cackling came from the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect Leader. His previous fright was seemingly nowhere in sight, with his aura pulsating like the beating of a heart.
Blood stained the skies, worsening with each further heartbeat.
"Foolish Count!!"
Sect Leader Ten Thousand Poisons ascended above Count Falazar, a wide, evil smirk twisting his wrinkled face.
"For years, I've been preparing for this moment! It didn't have to come to this, but the miraculous change in your eldest boy steered everything in a direction of no return!! And whether you like it or not, that cube will be mine for the taking!!!"
The mention of the item that originally pushed the three Counts against Count Falazar made all their faces light up in realization.
"Sect Leader Ten Thousand Poisons, You!!!" Count Roderick pointed fingers in the direction of the rapidly transforming old man. "You've known about the Lineage Treasure of the Falazars since the very beginning, haven't you!? You tricked us!!"
