The Story Never Ends

Hendrix was also looking over at Davion with strange eyes. "It looks like he might have really come for the secret art. But why did he only start attracting attention today, rather than yesterday? It looks like I have met a new foe. I think I should keep an eye on him. If he dares to come for the secret art then he can forget about living."

Everyone started cultivating again and Thaddeus gave some pointers to everyone. A couple of hours later, he tapped his finger on the table and all the black smoke returned back to where they came from. "This is all for today. You guys can leave."

Before everyone left, he smiled at Davion and said, "You did well today. But remember cultivation is a long path and you should not loose focus."

Davion bowed and nodded.

Seeing this Hendrix got a little bit angry.

Time passed, day by day.

Davion had the same routine every day; go to the lecture hall in the morning and stay in the library after finishing the lecture and return to the cave at night.

With extreme speed, he had flipped through all of the books in the library about cultivation. But there was very little information about Nascent Soul State and the Domain Realm. He still had not found any books that talked about the cultivation above those realms. It looked like the information about these things got destroyed many years ago.

He had spent 5 days in this same routine. But in these mere five days, some bad news has been spreading in the sect. The fellow disciples who showed up for morning lessons decreased again.

So today, when everyone showed up in the lecture hall, there were only 5 disciples including Davion.

Thaddeus looked at everyone calmly as nothing had happened. But deep down he was very sad. He could see that some other disciples were also anxious and in a gloomy mood. They were also not focusing on meditation. Only Isla, Hendrix, and the new disciple were serious and working hard.

These days he was keeping an eye on Davion. The more he watched him, the more he got impressed by this new disciple. He always works hard in the morning and goes to the library to study the whole day and returns back to the cave at night. There were also no suspicious activities about him. He also asked about Davion with the elder in the library. The elder had no suspicion and also praised the kid.

He checked everyone's progress and finally asked Davion, "How is your progress?"

"I have already tempered my bones and now I am on my way to tempering the muscles. But this process is rather difficult. I think I need more time." Davion calmly answered by hiding the truth.

"Oh..It looks like you are already trying to temper your muscles. Indeed, this is a difficult task." Thaddeus played with his long beard and thought, "Damn, this kid is really evil. It takes at least half a year for even a talented disciple to start tempering their muscles. But he has already tempered his bones and even tried to temper his muscles in just a week."

"I even kept an eye on him for a whole week and couldn't find anything. I heard from Isla that a large battle between the four sects and Heavenly Demon Sect happened there. Due to those shockwaves, did something wrong happen in the testing phase? Is he a genius having high-grade spiritual roots?"

Thaddeus sighed and said, "It's been a week since we last went to the Cultivation Pool. Now I will take you there. Follow me."

While following the Sect Master, Davion came near Isla and asked in a low voice, "Senior Sister, you said that the cultivation pool contains strong dark element particles with strong corrosive energy. Then where does this pool come from?"

"I don't know and the Sect Master also doesn't know. Even a cultivator with Golden Core won't be able to stay there long. I heard that even your mind will get affected if you stay there long." replied Isla.

Davion nodded in understanding and thought, "Is this related to the devils?"

While following they came to a huge cave which was several dozen meters tall. There was a huge pool in the middle. Thaddeus came in front of the pool and said, "You guys can stay here and meditate. But don't try to go deeper." he warned.

"I will call you guys out when it is time."

Everyone dived into the pool and selected their spot to meditate. Davion chose a place in the corner and dived straight into it. After coming into the pool, he could see a large number of dark particles trying to flow inside his body. It was also trying to corrode his body.

But after learning the Body Tempering Art, his body has become strong to an unprecedented level. So nothing happened to his body. Such energy is really strong for those disciples, but it is nothing for him. He used his Mind-Eye to analyze the pool. After being level 15, the range of his Mind-Eye has become larger.

He could see dark breath coming from everywhere around him. At the center of the pool, he could see a concentrated dark breath coming out from it. "This might be the source."

Seeing that everyone was closing their eyes and meditating, he slowly went deep into the pool and tried to see if there was anything.
