Chapter 159 159 – Leaving The Mystical Chasms

?

After Andreas explained to Ken the way the minds of the people at the top worked, he continued his former explanation.

"As for why we bonded together to create the Bloodthirst Sect, it was for the benefit of evil cultivators. We theorized the existence of Bloodlust Qi, which would allow manipulating others directly, including creating illusions, making others go berserk, generating fear, and even self-regeneration by robbing others' Qi. It'd be a great addition to our forces in the Immortal Realm, thus we wanted to see if we could guide anyone to cultivate this type of Qi."

"Did you succeed?"

"No. People should start to cultivate at an early age if they want their future to be limitless, no matter how many pills you support them with. Since you developed Bloodlust Qi, you must be aware it requires killing a lot of humans from a young age until it becomes part of your entity and doing so usually resulted in the kids becoming indifferent to human lives."

"And they lost the ability to develop bloodlust."

Ken remembered his thoughts when he planned to develop Bloodlust Qi. Humans normally didn't develop bloodlust by killing animals since they didn't perceive it as anything wrong, and if someone made a kid slaughter humans, the kid would treat it the same way as they treat slaughtering animals, making them lose the ability to develop bloodlust.

"Exactly. I don't know how you kept your morals while doing so. Most of them turned into psychopaths or worse, which was why we abandoned the sect members and created this secret realm to pass on the treasures the seven of us accumulated throughout our lives as well as those that the former members collected."

"I have… a strong moral code."

Ken said with a straight face. He found it laughable that Andreas talked about morals after he casually admitted to taking the treasures of the former sect disciples and storing them in the secret realm which they had no access to, only because he didn't like them. Not to mention they were abandoned to get hunted and killed by the righteous sects.

"Indeed. During the Challenge of Cruelty, you've performed well. You gave up your advantage to help your friends but didn't agree to lose your life for the false hope they will be spared later. The disciples we tried teaching how to cultivate Bloodlust Qi always failed it and never cared about anyone else but themselves."

Andreas praised the young inheritor for his choices.

Ken now got the gist of things. The seven supreme elders were trying to find future comrades also within the evil cultivators; hence, they opened the Bloodthirst Sect with the agenda of producing a cultivator with Bloodlust Qi.

"Young boy, don't limit your vision to the Mortal Realm. You seem to be talented enough to become immortal one day; don't forget that your time in this realm will be shorter than your time in the next. Unfortunately, there's no connection between this strand of consciousness to my real body, so I can't tell you how it is to live in the Immortal Realm."

"All right. So what else does this token do?"

"Most importantly, we will be able to locate it when you ascend. You will be new there and having us to back you up might increase your survival chances greatly. Other than that, every elder left a strand of consciousness in a different site in the secret realm, and it will let those strands know you arrived whenever you enter a site."

Andreas' voice was turning weaker as they talked, and his figure turned more ghost-like. They both understood the strand would dissipate soon.I think you should take a look at

"Well, it seems like I must leave now. Anything before we part?"

"Yes, look after my friends, Alaric and Tiara. One is a male Lightning Qi, Sound Qi, and Spear Qi cultivator while the other is a female Ice Qi and Saber Qi cultivator. Also, tell them I'm going to the Abyssal Armory next."

Ken said and waited for the portal to open.

"I can't look after them; the trials are impartial. But I will let them know of your destination. Good luck in the next sites, Inheritor."

With those words lingering behind him, the young boy entered a portal next to the central pedestal and left toward the next site. 

The new site wasn't as mystical and roundabout as the Mystic Chasms. The surroundings were completely bare, and there were several large halls scattered across the armory grounds. 

Ken deduced the place got its name because of its location as it was in a large valley surrounded by a few mountains.

'The local elder just tried to make it sound cool with the word 'abyssal', or maybe he wanted it to fit the theme of the secret realm created by an evil sect.'

Ken said inwardly while taking in the views. The portal made him land on the peak of a small mountain several kilometers away from the closest building, and he hoped that whoever managed the portals was smart enough to drop him by the building meant for sword cultivators.

He could see a few skirmishes going on, but overall, most disciples preferred to just enter the site and compete for resources there. He noticed that there were a few teams that lurked and waited for potential victims to cross their paths, but they only attacked those who walked solo.

'They probably don't have enough BP to claim any useful reward, so they try to earn some easy points first.'

Ken thought to himself as he watched one team opens an onslaught against a couple of cultivators passing by. It was a five-against-two fight, and it ended soon with the victory of the bigger group.

'Only the weak need to move in groups and share the loot. It means they're too weak to survive here on their own.'

With this conclusion, Ken left the mountain. He was under the effect of Sheathed Man and thus wasn't afraid of being caught.
