Dark Side of the Azure Province

"Murdered you say?!"

The Sword Alliance Leader's cousin frowned.

The Sword Alliance Leader nodded," I am incapable of going out of the sect right now due to my bottleneck, but I hope Cousin can avenge my people!"

He even sneakily handed him a few medicines which could be used to boost his cultivation which was already in the mid-stages of the Origin-Realm.

"Fine, I will go to the border of the Azure Province to check on these foolish people who killed my juniors."

It was safe to say he never returned.

~~

Feng Xiantian stretched his limbs once again. His Martial Skill had reached a new level of mastery, he could reach up to a thousand slashes without any problem. The Martial Skill was called,"Infinity Blade Slash".

His earlier skill capable of summoning bolts of lightning had also reached the second stage, the name of that Martial Skill was "Roaring Thunderstorm".

He had previously ranked it as a skill of the 7th rank, but to be more exact and sincere the maximum output of it was easily capable of reaching Rank 9.

His current arsenal was quite limited, he had a total of 3 Martial Skills and one Slaughter Spirit Formation. The third Martial Skill was his cultivation technique.

The Silver, Gold and Red Dragons made out of Aura were easily capable of battling people. Although their abilities were limited, they could still fight with commands from him.

"Are you still fighting for your decision you lazy bum?"

Ying Yue snorted as she spoke.

"I've already decided what I will do. I might join the Lingyun School or go rogue. Although Azure Dragon School is nearby, the gains I can get there are lower and I don't like having to struggle"

'Not after what happened in my first life at least…'

Ying Yue played with her hair and narrowed her gaze. "I see, when you become a Blue-Cloaked World Spiritist I'll teach you something."

"There won't be a need for you to teach me anything, there is my master to do that."

"Brat…."

'That bitch master is getting on my nerves, she's messing up with my plans as well.' Ying Yue internally frowned. To widen her influence in Feng Xiantian, there was a need for her to have him depend on her.

Yet, he was showing that he knew many skills, which he brought out of nowhere. Not to mention this new master of his was also a troublesome rival she'd have to fight for the full attention of the boy.

This was also going to lessen the chances of him willingly signing a Contract, different from the average World Spirit Contract.

~~

Weeks passed quickly before Feng Xiantian could even notice there was only a week before he made his final decision.

In this short duration of four weeks, his cultivation had risen to the eighth layer of the Origin-Realm.

Such a monstrous rise for others would mean an immense decline in their foundation, and their power wouldn't steadily keep up with their actual realm. But for him it was different.

His power now was equivalent to an apex Profound Realm expert, he could not be too sure of himself despite that. He was not sure of how powerful Profound Realm experts were in the first place.

He finally decided to return to the home of his adoptive parents for the last week. They were a bit annoyed he was away for the last four weeks or so but they did not make a big point of that.

This was a very hard period for him because choosing the sect he was going to join eventually affected one's future prospects. If only they knew….

Feng Shan plowed the ground using his Martial Power. Cultivators saw it beneath them to use it for such an action, but he did not mind it. It earned his family an income.

Wiping his sweat he noticed Feng Xiantian nearing him. "Oh, you brought me lunch." A grin emerged on his face as he quickly devoured the food.

"For someone nearing his mid-thirties you sure have a lot of energy father." Feng Xiantian remarked as he put a hand below his chin in the shape of a fist.

"Are you trying to compliment me or make fun of me?" Feng Shan gained a tick mark on his forehead.

"Both."

Feng Xiantian's answer was both short and ruthless. Feng Shan's left eye twitched as he put down the lunch box.

"Why do you have to be so mean to the one who raised in this evil and not safe world?!" He complained as he scratched the back of his head.

"Who is that? You? Father… Don't forget that I was alone most of the time since I was 5." Feng Xiantian stated as he took out his own lunch and took a bite.

"That is because you somehow always succeeded on sneaking past your mother, or even in occasions I was at home at the time you still somehow managed to sneak past both of us!"

A roll of eyes was soon acquired.

~~

"So? Did he accept the deal we had with him?"

A man with the robes which belonged to the Lingyun School revealed a smirk as he spoke.

"Yes, it took a bit but he accepted the offer as long as we made him an Inner Disciple immediately. He refused the offer to become the disciple of our Headmaster though"

"That cocky bastard, well with his talent he probably has the right to be that arrogant. It could be considered our win no matter how much effort we had to give him.

"Yeah… When I gave him our final offer, I was able to barely see through his cultivation. It was at the late stages of the Origin-Realm. His foundation was as sturdy as ever."

"What did you say?! That's literally just a realm lower than our strongest disciple's current prowess… That little monster might even surpass the Heaven Realm."

"Not to mention that he was purposely revealing his cultivation otherwise I would be unable to see through it."

The man from the Lingyun School shivered, a figure appeared from the darkness. It was a man covered in a black cloak

"Our Lingyun School is destined to rise apart from the other sects, who would ever think that our Lingyun School has more than triple the number of Profound Realm Experts compared to the other schools.
