Chapter 34

Itachi looked at the former sect leader, Feng Qianhui.

Noticing Itachi's gaze on her, Feng Qianhui nodded, she was pleased with Gong Yuxian's son. She felt that Itachi was the one who would protect the sect in the 1000 year calamity, and for this reason she allowed Gong Yuxian to live with her son in the sect. And looking at Itachi's cultivation, she realized that she wasn't wrong, with only ten years he reached the Emperor Profound Realm, something that she herself only reached after hundreds of years.

Turning her gaze to the huge staircase, she felt quite surprised, this was because she knew where this treasure came from, but she didn't know how Itachi had gotten it.

Seeing Feng Qianhui and her mother's doubt, Itachi decided to explain how he had gotten this treasure that would be kept under lock and key in any sect.

"Ling Yuefeng trusted me so much that he ended up giving me the device to control the Profound Stairs."

His words seemed to make that it was the easiest thing in the world to get a treasure like this, but all the people around knew that things could not be as simple as Itachi said.

"This is an excellent treasure for the sect, but it's a pity that it only has benefits for cultivators who are below the True Profound Realm, above that the Profound Ladders are useless, but it's still good enough to increase the sect's strength." He said calmly.

Feng Qianhui nodded, she was happy that Itachi was willing to give the sect this kind of treasure, even if it has no benefits for cultivators above the True Profound Realm, it would still be useful to raise hundreds or maybe thousands of True Profound Realm cultivators.

"With that this treasure, and our cultivation techniques it won't take more than a few years before we have a few ranks of Heaven Profound Realm cultivators." Feng Qianhui thought.

She was increasingly relieved that she had allowed Itachi to remain in the sect, moreover, she was increasingly furious with the sect elders for almost expelling this young talent who could save her sect from a huge catastrophe.

...

A month had passed since Itachi had returned to Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace, currently he was residing his old room which seemed to have undergone a major renovation since the last time he came to this place.

Moreover the smell of his mother still permeated his room, which was a sign that she had been sleeping here for the past few years.

This past month he had spent helping the female disciples of the sect climb the steps of the Deep Staircase, he realized that this way they would all make progress more easily instead of being left alone. This was something he realized when he was still in the Heavenly Sword Villa.

If the Heavenly Sword Villa elders helped the disciples in the Deep Ladders, then their sect would be even more powerful than it already is, but it seems that they hadn't realized this and just let the disciples do whatever they wanted.

Itachi also told his mother to create a reward system for those who climb higher up the steps, this would make a healthy competition happen in the sect, and would only make the disciples strive even harder, after all who wouldn't want to receive more benefits or resources for cultivation? The person who refuses this is definitely a fool.

But after he gave this idea to his mother, he regretted it, this because the first place prize was precisely, himself...

When Itachi found out that the first place reward in the Deep Stairs was him, a shiver went up his back. He doesn't remember sticking himself as the prize, so this was definitely some other person's idea in the sect, and when he questioned his mother, she said that this would motivate the female disciples to achieve first place.

At first he thought this was nonsense, but seeing the Deep Ladders completely packed with female disciples fighting for first place, he realized how wrong he was. Seeing that they were trying hard enough, he left it at that, only slightly modifying the shape of the first place prize.

Every month the top 10 rewards were updated, except for the top 1 prize which all the female disciples wanted to be Itachi causing him to have a huge headache to deal with this situation.

"Just say that I will give pointers to the girl who ranks first in the Deep Ladders."

Those were the words he said to his mother, before he went back to his room. In the last few days, he realized that his universe seemed to have spawned a planet in his first galaxy, which made him very happy.

The only problem was that the planet seemed to be very close to the black hole that was at the center of his galaxy, but when he realized that it didn't seem to be approaching the black hole he breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking more closely at his planet he noticed that it was filled with ice as if it was frozen, perhaps this was due to the fact that there was not yet a Sun in this galaxy that could warm the planet.

"That is a bit sad, I would like to take a look at a more living planet, but it looks like I will have to wait." He thought.

Just as he was about to stop looking at his universe, he realized that there was something inside the huge black hole, and since he knew this was inside his body, he didn't hesitate to enter the event horizon. He quickly found himself in a dark place filled with white things that emitted a powerful aura around him.

He didn't know what this meant, but knowing it was inside his own body, he knew it wouldn't be harmful. Scanning the darkness, he realized that there were only these things floating in the dark space, and since he didn't know what to think, he placed his hand on one of these white 'things'.

"What?" Itachi exclaimed.
