The Dungeon Conquerors: Journey to the Peak

Rein asked the sect master what he was planning to do with this person. It was extremely hard to kill a true god but this senior Longevity had weakened too much so killing him should not pose much trouble. But he was a treasure trove of ancient information so just killing him would be a waste.

For that reason the sect master decided to hold a meeting amongst the higher ups of the sect to decide the future of this person. Rein had expected that at least some people would have something positive to say about this person but he was surprised that it did not happen.

When he asked the sect master about it he replied that almost all the elders had their suspicion about this person and all of them were cautious about it. He actually did not only want to stay in this secret realm but had the intention of going out and taking part in handling the sect's matters. But he had no intention to officially become a part of the sect.

There was a special rule stone in the sect. An elder needed to touch this stone and had to make a vow to truly become a part of the sect. If anyone broke the vow then that person would immediately die a gruesome and painful death. The vows were not too strict though and only having no bad intention toward the sect was enough to not worry about it.

The unwillingness of this person to make this simple vow in a sect that saved his life was very suspicious. And he had been taking some secret actions which were also closely monitored by various elders. He was a troublesome person but he also had his uses. And so far he had actually not done anything too suspicious so the sect allowed him to stay.

But now he had crossed a line.

After a lengthy discussion it was decided that a very rare one time use item would be used on him. This item could make a person's mind to go blank and in this situation he would answer anything that he was asked to. This was how the Divine Scale Pavillion was planning to make use of his ancient knowledge and after they had extracted all the knowledge he had, Senior Longevity would be killed.

Keeping this type of person alive would only invite dangers for the future.

...

The sect master and there of the highest tier elders did the interrogation. It took almost three days for them to extract all the information and then senior Longevity was killed. Even his soul was destroyed to make sure that he was really dead and would not appear again in the future to cause trouble.

Rein was given a book where all the information that they managed to gather from this person was written. Rein was not supposed to get his hands on a book of this value but as he was one of the main reasons why the true nature of this cunning person came to light and also because the sect wanted to groom him as the best successor, he was given this top secret and valuable information.

What he read really surprised Rein. This senior Longevity whose real name was Han Guxing turned out to be a very evil person. His nature was evil and he had been this way since his youth. He had killed his whole sect off because of a treasure once. For his own greed and wishes he was willing to do any steps.

Then he was asked about various events that happened in the past and he told everything he knew about them. Rein did not read these parts too carefully for the time being and he was planning to check it once again with more concentration later on.

He was also forced to confess about what type of plans he had for the Divine Scale Pavillion and his plans for it were horrible. He wanted to slowly make this place his own property and then he was planning to sacrifice this whole sect to use a secret art that could give him a few extra centuries of life.

Among the advice he had given to the people who actually had a chance to break through, he always gave them some small untrue hints that would make the process of breaking through to be harder. Most of the things he told were true and among these truths he mixed in some very clever lies. And this was the reason why he was so troublesome to deal with.

That way he was planning to use a perfect chance to take control over the whole sect and then to sacrifice it. Unfortunately his anger got the better of him and he made a hasty move. And at the same time the members of the Divine Scale Pavillion were stronger and more vigilant than he had expected them to be.

He had really thought that his killing of a disciple would not be a big deal. It was clear that the value of a current true god powerhouse and a person who might or might not become a true god in the future was different. But it turned out that he had judged his value to the sect wrong and had made a huge mistake.

Rein did read all this information but these were not the main thing that he was after. After going through almost three fourths of the books he was finally able to find what he was looking for. It was information about the Dimensional God temple.

There was not a lot of information about this extremely mysterious sect but Rein was happy to find any information at all. Rein went through all the things written there and fell into a deep thought. He was able to learn even more than what he had expected and if this information was true, then he needed to drastically change his future plans.

Other than the generic stuff that Rein already knew about, Han Guxing had also written about a method using which the Dimensional God temple recruited disciples a few thousand years ago. Rein did not know if the temple was still using the same methods or not but there was no problem with him trying it out.

Other than this selection process, Rein was able to learn a little more about the inner structure of this mega sect. There were two halls in the temple, the earth hall and the heaven hall. The people of the earth hall were still a member of the sect but they did not know much about the true secretive things. Only the people who were part of the heaven hall were aware of the true powers of this sect.

So even if Rein could somehow join this sect, he would still need to get in the heaven hall to get the achievement that he was trying to get.

The future plans that Rein had in mind became more complicated but Rein was still happy as he at least managed to find some clues that would allow him to solve a big problem.
