Talent Swallowing System

Chapter 777 Grade 8 City

The distance between Silvermoon City and the Lunar City was more than 10000 kilometers and even with the help of the Wind Sparrow, it would take two days for them to travel.

'Screech'

The Wind Sparrow was quite fast; however, it needed a break from time to time since it was only a mid-level rank 2 Moon Beast and didn't have the stamina to carry three cultivators on its back and fly at its full speed all day.

Hence, after travelling for six hours, they would take a break of one hour in some cities.

Along the way, Elder Declan didn't bother to talk to Leo; however, from time to time, he would explain to Novan about the Lunar Sect and try to make him interested in the sect.

"The Lunar Sect has three sections and they are Outer, Inner and Core Sections. I am a Golden Core Realm Cultivator and I am just an Outer Sect Elder and you can imagine how powerful the Lunar Sect is."

"Little Novan, with your cultivation talent and the Golden Grade Foundation in his dantian, can be directly placed into the Inner Section of the Lunar Sect."

"Of course, if you can maintain your cultivation speed and break through to level 5 Foundation Establishment Realm within three years, you will be directly promoted to the Core Section of the Sect where you could become one of the personal disciples of the Core Elders."

"As long as you become a disciple of a Core Elder, you will have access to many cultivation resources and you can smoothly become a perfected Golden Core Realm Cultivator in no time and even breaking through to Nascent Soul Realm won't be a problem for you.

"If you can become a Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator before the age of 500, you will become one of the Sect Leader Canditates and eventually become a Sect Leader of the Lunar Sect."

Obviously, Elder Declan was only speaking about the good things that might happen to Novan and omitted the negative things that could happen to him in the sect.

'If his cultivation speed was not on par with other cultivation geniuses, he would be demoted to the Outer Sect Disciple.'

'Even if his cultivation speed continued to be good, he would become an eyesore to the other cultivation geniuses who had good backgrounds and eventually, he would be bullied or even killed.'

'So, instead of becoming a sect leader of the Lunar which only had a probability of less than one percent, Novan getting involved in many bad things was very high.'

On the other hand, Leo silently muttered the bad things that would definitely happen to Novan as long as he maintained his cultivation speed.

Of course, how could Leo let Novan go through all that? He had already planned something for Novan that would shake the entire Lunat Sect.

'As long as he becomes the personal disciple of the Sect Leader of the Lunar Sect, who would dare to bully Novan?'

When Leo planned to send Novan to the Lunar Sect, he had already planned many things for Novan and one of them was making him the Sect Leader's Disciple.

'Even though the other elders who were aiming to become the sect leader, in front of absolute power, no one would try anything funny unless they wanted to get killed.'

Just becoming the personal disciple of the Sect Leader, won't completely make Novan loved by everyone in the sect; however, it would make no one harm him.

'But, still, I need to give him some things to protect himself.'

Leo silently made a mental note in his head, 'Buying rank 3 items is completely out of the equation as it would cost me a fortune; instead, I can create my own Rank 3 Talismans and merge them before giving it to him.'

After thinking for a moment, Leo decided to buy the materials for the Rank 3 Talismans when they flew above a Grade 8 City.

By consuming the Spiritual Essence Pills, Leo became enlightened into Alchemy for the first time and when he consumed the pill for the second time, he was enlightened into Talisman Making.

Currently, he is a High-level Rank 2 Alchemist and a Mid-level Rank 3 Talisman Master.

Time continued to pass and one passed by in a flash as they took four one-hour breaks in a day and all the stops they made were Grade 9 Cities.

Buying a Rank 3 Talisman material in a Grade 9 City would attract huge attention which Leo definitely didn't want.

Moreover, Leo was with Elder Declan and with that commotion, he could easily find out that Leo bought those things.

'I hope we fly above a Grade 8 City today.'

Leo not only had to buy the materials for the Rank 3 Talismans, but he also had to merge today's slots using the [Fundamental Merge].

To merge them, Leo didn't require much time; however, he could not do it in front of Elder Declan unless he wanted to become a slave for the Lunar Sect for his entire life.

After six hours, they passed by another Grade 9 City and took a one-hour break in an inn just like always.

'Let's merge.'

Without thinking much, Leo directly started merging.

100 Low-level Spirit Stones → 10 Mid-level Spirit Stones.

100 Mid-level Spirit Stones → 10 High-level Spirit Stones.

In a flash, Leo used up the 20 slots for his [Fundamental Merge] and didn't use the remaining 10 slots as he planned to create some mid-level rank 3 Talismans before merging them into special high-level rank 3 Talismans.

With such talismans, Novan could not only protect himself from the Nascent Soul Realm Cultivators but he could also kill the low-level Nascent Soul Realm Cultivators.

Time continued to pass and another 5 hours passed by as Leo saw a city that was bigger than a Grade 9 City.

'Finally a Grade 8 city.'

Even though it was not the time for their break, Leo decided to ask Elder Declan about the stop in the Grade 8 city.

"Elder Declan, Novan is feeling a little tired from flying all the way. Why don't we take a break in that Grade 8 city?"

Of course, Leo didn't dare to use his name because he knew that the moment he used his name, Elder Declan would directly reject the idea. Hence, he used Novan's name as Elder Declan valued him a lot.

"Also, Novan had never visited a Grade 8 City, if possible, let's stay in the city for a while longer to let Novan look around."

Since buying the materials for the Rank 3 Talismans and making them would take quite a long time, Leo requested Elder Declan stay in the city for the night.

"Do you want to see the city?"

Elder Declan glared at Leo before looking at Novan with a loving smile on his old face and asked him.

"I have never seen a Grade 8 city and I don't know how long it would take for me to venture into the outside world and even if I got out, I might look at the outside world in the same light as now."

By joining the sect, it was known that the disciples would look at the world outside the sect in a new light and thus, Novan used that to make Elder Declan agree to Leo's request.

As Leo's disciple, Novan could tell that his master had something to do in the city and he went along with Leo's word and requested Elder Declan about it.

"Alright! However, a Grade 8 city is quite dangerous for you to venture alone. When we look around the city, you should be by my side all the time."

Elder Declan didn't have any rules regarding bringing the newly recruited disciples back to the sect within a certain time limit.

Moreover, Novan has the potential of becoming a Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator and thus Elder Declan believed that a single drop of his kindness would be repaid with a fountain of Reward.

It was not that he valued Novan a little too much, it was Elder Declan's habit of being kind and generous with all the cultivators he recruited into the sect and he was waiting for one of these disciples to become bigshots in the future and help him with his cultivation.

Even though he disliked cultivators like Leo who sold their disciples to the sects, he was also not much different from them.

Nevertheless, it was just his hypocrisy as he guided the Wind Sparrow into the Grade 8 City.

'Swoosh'

"I am an elder from the Lunar Sect. I will be staying in the city for a while and I don't want to be disturbed."

Before the cultivators who were protecting the city could attack them, Elder Declan took out a Bronze Token, making those protectors bow to him before returning to the works.

Of course, one of the protectors informed the city leader; however, after learning that the elder was just an Outer Sect Elder, the city leader didn't bother to pay a visit.

On the other hand, Elder Declan and others bought a few rooms in the inn.

While Elder Declan and Novan were resting, Leo silently left the inn found an alley to cover his face and changed his attire before entering the Infinite Treasure Pavilion of the city.

Compared to the branch in Silvermoon City, this branch of the Infinite Treasure Pavilion was much bigger and there was a wide range of items in the store.

'If only I had my Gold Membership Card, it would have been better.'
