Eternal Ascendancy

Shocking the Sect Master

"So, which talent did you want to introduce to me? And before you say anything, remember, if it's not worth my time, you will face the consequences."

Sect Master said with narrowed eyes as he looked toward Kai Ren, At first, he had hoped that they might have found an unrivaled genius, but after looking at his meager, low-level Qi Practitioner Realm cultivation, he became disappointed.

"Surely you, Jest Sect Master, we would not dare disturb your peace without a solid reason." Elder Liu immediately said as he saw the sect master's narrowed eyes,

"This is the lad we wanted to introduce to you."

"Disciple Kai Ren greets the sect master." Seeing that everyone was focused on him, Kai Ren immediately bowed toward the sect master while paying respect to him.

"So what's so special about his low-level Qi practitioner realm cultivation?" the sect master replied in a neutral tone.

"Sect master, his cultivation is indeed not worth much, but what if I told you that when we first met him, he was just in low-level Qi's apprentice realm, but after cultivating just for a few seconds, he reached his current realm?"

Elder Han replied in a boastful tone again, as if he had not just threatened to kill Kai Ren when they first met.

"Oh, show me then how fast his cultivation speed is."

After hearing Elder Han's reply, the sect master's interest peaked, and he asked in an intrigued voice.

"Well, boy, you heard the sect master." Elder Liu turned toward Kai Ren after hearing what the sect master had said.

"My apologies, Elders, It's not that I don't want to show you; it's just that I have already cultivated to the limits, and if I try to cultivate anymore, it will do more harm than good to my body,"

Kai Ren said in an apologetic tone while bowing his head.

"Ho, why so?" The sect master asked after hearing Kai Ren's response.

"Sect master, as you already know, this disciple has broken through from the low-level Qi apprentice realm to the low-level Qi practitioner realm, and I have expelled a large number of impurities from my body, and even though they were harmful to my body,"

"they were still a part of it, and my control over Qi is still not good enough for me to use it as a replacement for them." Kai Ren explained the reason behind his inability to continue the cultivation.

Just as Kai Ren finished speaking, he saw the sect master waving his hand and immediately felt a warm flow entering his body, compensating for all the energy he had lost during his breakthroughs.

The flow created a pleasant feeling in his entire body, which made him close his eyes.

After a few seconds, the flow receded, and Kai Ren opened his eyes to see the sect master standing up from his seat and walking toward the door. "Follow me." The sect master said this before he went out of the room.

The trio looked at each other briefly and hurriedly followed behind the sect master. After taking a few turns, they arrived at a door above, where "Cultivation Hall" was written.

The sect master took out a token from his ring and placed it in the section specifically made for the token on the door.

After which, the door automatically opened, and a huge amount of Qi gushed out of it.

The Qi inside the room was so concentrated that it was hard for Kai Ren to look a few meters ahead of him.

The sect master entered the room like it was no big deal to see this amount of Qi concentrated in the room. It was his residence, so it should not be a big deal for him.

After everyone entered the room, the door closed behind them. Just as Kai Ren was wondering why the sect master brought him here, he heard him say,

"Now that you can continue cultivating, show me why Elder Han and Elder Liu think so highly of you."

"Very well, elder, then this disciple will try his best to not disappoint you."

After saying that, Kai Ren immediately sat down and entered the right state of mind. After that, he started reciting the Celestial Genesis technique in his mind.

Just as Kai Ren started reciting the technique, he started devouring the Qi in the room, akin to a hungry beast, which shocked the sect master as the speed at which Kai Ren was devouring the Qi was ten times faster than the best genius he has ever seen.

While the sect master was in shock, profound changes were happening in Kai Ren's body.

The Qi he absorbed was running through his entire body, nourishing it and making it stronger continuously As he kept taking in the Qi, his bones started to change color, and a hint of golden hue appeared within them.

Visible muscle appeared on his body, and his body became well-toned. Even his mind was enhanced as the Qi continuously nourished it, making his brain work twenty times faster than before.

Only after all of this happened did Kai Ren make a breakthrough in the mid-stage Qi practitioner realm.

But after making a breakthrough, Kai Ren stopped cultivating after Azarion said, "Kid, stop cultivating now, or if you continue, you will damage your foundation, and it will become increasingly hard for you to continue in your cultivation journey in the future."

After Kai Ren opened his eyes, he saw the three older men staring at him with wide eyes, and the concentration of the room went down by a large percentage as he could finally see more than ten meters ahead of him.

"Elders, did I do something wrong?" Kai Ren asked after seeing their shocked expressions. Hearing his words brought the trio out of their reverie, and the sect master said

"Heavens! The amount of Qi this boy took to break through from the low-level Qi practitioner realm to the mid-level Qi practitioner realm is enough for a mortal to reach the Qi adept realm."

The sect master took a deep breath, turned toward Elder Liu and Elder Han, and asked,

"Just where did you find this little monster, and does anyone else know about his talents?"

"Sect master, you have to believe us that we found him in the vicinity of the sect,"

Elder Liu hastily said, and Elder Han continued from where Elder Liu had left.

"Except for us three, only that old man, Bleda, also knows about his existence. but he doesn't know about his talent and just knows that he is a genius we found on our way to the sect."

"Good, no one, and I mean no one outside of this room, should know about his existence, or not only him but our Emerald Peak Sect will be targeted by all the other sects and powers in the mortal realm,"

the sect master said to them with a smile, but the elder expression turned grave after understanding what his words implied.

Kai Ren, after all, was a once-in-a-ten-thousand-year genius, and any power will be weary of his existence as he can easily grow strong enough to overpower them in just a few years.

In simple terms, Kai Ren's existence was like a hanging sword on the neck of all the power, and they would do anything to remove it.

If word ever got out that the Emerald Peak sect had such a genius in their ranks, then even their allies would not hesitate to target the sect.

If all the great powers in the moral realm decided to ally against the Emerald Peak sect, the only fate that awaits them is absolute annihilation.

While the Elders were still reeling from the shock, the sect master turned toward Kai Ren and said, "Disciple Kai, I would like to take you in as my disciple. Are you willing?"
