Nightin lay down on his bed as he looked up at the ceiling,thinking to himself "It has already been one month ever since that day,to think that even someone like me will have a day where I start to rise up..."
The next day,Nightin was woken up by Lancelot who had a scroll in his hands. In the middle of the scroll was the lion seal which belongs exclusively to the sect a.s.sociation. The a.s.sociation which rejected him when he attempted to register his sect.
Lancelot pa.s.sed it to Nightin with both hands respectfully as he said "Sect master,a messenger who claimed that he"s from the sect a.s.sociation told me to pa.s.s you this scroll."
Nightin took the letter over casually with one as he opened it up: I"m the a.s.socation master of our branch in the Cloud Moon city, I"ve heard of what has happened and would like to deeply apologise for the rudeness of our worker. Now to the main point,we hope that you"ll partic.i.p.ate in the minor grade sect tournament where eight grade one sects including yours will partic.i.p.ate in. It will be held in the Cloud Moon city battle arena."
Nightin wrinkled his eyebrows, seemingly in deep thoughts as he asked Lancelot "Did the messenger who pa.s.sed you the scroll make any weird actions?"
Lancelot pondered carefully for some time before shaking his head while saying that the messenger was behaving normally.
Nightin informed Lancelot of the minor grade tournament which their sect will be taking part in one month from now.
Lancelot looked at Nightin as he said "Don"t worry sect master, I"ll work hard in this one month and won"t let you down." After finis.h.i.+ng he had to say,he left the room as he closed the doors up before heading to cultivate.
Nightin destroyed the scroll in his hand after Lancelot left the room as he started to think to himself "Why would the a.s.sociation head suddenly contact me and know about what happened? Since I can"t figure it out,the only thing I can do right now is get stronger."
Leaving his room,Nightin heads towards the desolate mountain area to the northwest of the sect.
With Nightin"s current cultivation at the second realm of the martial master realm,he arrived at the foot of the mountain shortly after.
Nightin started to ascend the mountain while heading towards the inner area of it. At the start,countless beasts attempted to make him their meal of the day,only to be killed by him instead.
The strength of the beasts started to increase gradually until the second cla.s.s fourth grade demon beasts appear on a regular basis.
Just when Nightin had decided to stay here,around the middle area of the mountain,a demon ape appeared in front of him. The demon ape had a menacing look with four arms as it bellowed at Nightin. Nightin didn"t had to think,that demon ape must be the ruler of this area. Nightin continuous killing of its servants must have angered him.
Nightin took his blade out as he got into battle stance,waiting for the demon ape in front of him to make the first move. If only he had been more careful,this might not have happened. Taking a deep breathe to calm down his thoughts that are running wild,he decided to make the first move. Circling to the back of the ape,his sword stabbed straight into its back with the first sword of the nine mystic swords.
Nine mystic swords,a self created technique of his in which only the first move has been developed. In this technique of his,the increase in every sword layer will be double of the previous one.
Even though his cultivation is only at the second realm of the Martial Master realm,his strength is comparable to that of the fourth realm. With the increase in strength with the first of nine swords,the attack power can be compared to that of a average fifth realm martial master.
Even so,his attack was futile as the sword attack was destroyed without even leaving a scratch on the back of the demon ape.
The attack of his enraged the demon ape as it swung its arm towards Nightin. Before Nothing blacked out,he saw a man holding a zither plucking one the strings...
When Nightin woke up,he was in a cave with a campfire lit out as the only light source providing warmth as well. The sun had set down already as the night moon hanged high up in the sky.
Seeing that Nightin was awake,the man asked him "Young man,what are you doing in such a dangerous place like this? You should know that one wrong move would cost your life,just what are you doing this for."
Nightin look at the eyes of the man,trying to understand his motive,yet all he could is that the man has experienced a life filled with ordeals...
Shaking his thoughts off,Nightin told the man "My name is Nightin,I aspire to become a sect master,if I"m not strong enough,how will I be able to protect the disciples of my sect? I appreciate your effort in saving me, but just what do you want?"
The man laughed out loud,his laughter resounding off the walls of the cave,echoing throughout the area. "I"m Liam,a seven star musician and one of the ten experts in this world. I"m sure that you are wanting me to join your sect by now,but I"m afraid that I"ll have to reject your offer. I can stay here to help you out for half a month with your cultivation if you want to though."
Nightin half kneeled on his knees as he thanked the senior for his kind efforts. He understands that as a person with such a high status,he must be busy enough in life to barely have enough free time.
Just like this,Nightin started to undergo the demon training under the man who claimed to be a figure who stands at the peak of this world...
Back in the sect,Lancelot actually picked the spear as his weapon and actually condensed out his first spear energy. From what Nightin had told him,the limit is 999 of these energies,only then will one be able to condense out the strongest intents.
Be it rain or s.h.i.+ne,day or night. Both the sect master and disciple were undoing training which can be described as h.e.l.l at every single moment. Today is the last day before the arrival of the minor grade sect tournament.
Nightin"s cultivation arrived at the seventh martial master realm,while Lancelot arrived at the half step martial master realm. Not only that,Lancelot had managed to condense out twenty spear energies in total while building a strong foundation. With his current strength,winning this tournament will be a breeze...
