The Story Never Ends

Seeing Davion coming, Thaddeus's mood became a little better.

"Sect Master, who were they?" Davion was puzzled.

"Oh, they are from the Blood Saber Sect. They were here to tell us about the Conference which is in a month's time. Don't think too much. Just focus on your cultivation," Thaddeus replied mildly.

"Yes." Davion nodded his head.

"So how was your experience outside? This was your first time in the city." Thaddeus asked.

"It was pretty good. I managed to learn a lot of things outside." Davion smiled.

"Ok. Now come two hours earlier than the usual time in the morning lecture starting tomorrow. I have some more things to teach you." Thaddeus slowly left.

"The disciple understands." Davion bowed towards the direction Thaddeus left.

***

Far away, in the Blood Saber Sect,

In the main hall, there was an old man with a long beard sitting on a throne. He was wearing a red robe and had two large sabers hanging on the side.

Below him, was a middle-aged man reporting all the matters that transpired today. Indeed, that man was Edgar. After Edgar finished reporting, the old man finally stood up and said in a deep voice, "It looks like we still need time to capture the grounds of the Bone and Devil Sect."

"That old man is really foolish. I don't know why he still wants to run the sect when all his disciples have left. Even the remaining disciples don't get resources. I even took a lot of trouble to persuade those other sects to help us. We had to give them a lot of spirit stones just for this."

"You have done a good job, disciple." The old man looked at him and felt proud.

"But master, there is one thing that I do not understand. What is inside that sect that deserves so much of our attention." Edgar was puzzled.

"You don't need to know much about it. Just time will tell. You can leave for now." The old man waved his hands.

Edgar bowed and left the hall.

Making sure nobody was around, the old man came behind the throne and put his hands on the wall.

The wall was slowly pushed back and a hidden passageway was behind it. He walked inside it and a small room came into view. There was only a pillar with a strange orb in the middle of the room. There were strange characters and symbols on the pillar. If Davion was here, he could recognize some of the symbols as they were the same one Thaddeus showed him in the scroll.

He came infront of the orb and poured his Qi inside it. He started chanting a strange language. After a while, the orb started glowing and a black projection was seen above it. But the facial features were not seen properly. Only a pair of eyes were seen.

Seeing the projection, the old man immediately kneeled.

"So, did you capture those grounds?" a strange voice which was neither male nor female was heard.

"No, we did not manage to capture it. But it will be done in a month's time." The old man didn't even dare to look at that projection.

"Humm, make sure you do it properly. Our majesty cannot wait much longer. You will definitely be awarded."

"Also, don't let anyone know about it. If those sects get the gist of it, it will be trouble."

"Yes, your servant understands."

The projection slowly faded and finally, the old man stood up and pondered, "What is inside the pool in the Bone and Devil Sect?"

***

One week later, inside the Cultivation Pool,

Everyone was closing their eyes and cultivating when a handsome young man suddenly jumped out of the pool. He came infront of a big rock and punched it. The rock immediately broke into pieces.

Listening to this commotion, everyone opened their eyes and looked at Davion in surprise.

Isla looked at him for a while and asked, "Junior Brother, did you break through?"

"What do you think?" Davion smiled.

"Davion, did you really breakthrough?" Thaddeus immediately came into the cave from outside.

"Yes, I just finished tempering my organs." Davion bowed and replied.

Everyone got shocked while looking at Davion. How long has it been since he joined the sect? Only the disciples in the inner regions might be as talented as him.

Thaddeus didn't even know how to react. Only after a while, he took out a golden badge from his space ring and said, "You can take this and enter the Secret Arts Hall in the library. Inside there is a Qi refining manual and lots of immortal arts of our sect. Previously, only one art could be chosen by a disciple. But for you, I have made an exception."

"Even though I have made an exception for you. You should not waste your time learning more arts. Cultivation is the most important thing. You are talented, so that's why I allowed you to enrich your knowledge. Now, you can go. You should not slack," after reminding Davion, he left.

On his way, Thaddeus was a little worried. Hendrix still hasn't returned for a week and only Isla was a Qi refining disciple. So, she could only take part in the conference battle.

He sighed thinking about these things, "Why didn't I find Davion, much earlier?"

Davion had a sharp and keen mind. With most things, it took only a little bit of teaching before he mastered them. He showed great promise in terms of talent as well. The more he spent time with him, the more he liked this lad.

"I will just let him escape if something happens.." Thaddeus made up his mind.
