Se connecterChase could tell how quickly Nigel was advancing."Stage three… Stage five… Stage seven… Stage nine!"As Nigel's follower, Floyd was the most excited among them."Congratulations to you for returning to your peak, Elder Nigel!" he shouted at Nigel.Everyone else noticed it as well. Besides Barry, the Desolate Ancient Sect now had its second stage-nine martial god king elder.Congratulations filled the air.Chase was to congratulate Nigel as well when he realized Otto was being silent. Topher was smiling, but he also stayed silent.He found this strange and asked, "Isn't this supposed to be a happy occasion?""The real happy occasion will be happening later," Topher turned to him and said."He's right. Besides, this is all thanks to you," Otto said as he went over to them."Thanks to me?" Chase was puzzled."Elder Nigel knew long before this that he could achieve a breakthrough and ascend if he could gain enlightenment on the Water and Earth Orders of the Path, or the Life an
"I didn't know you had such a deep understanding of the Orders of the Path, Chase. I've learned a lot!" Nigel had benefited greatly from listening to Chase's long speech. He looked forward to the day he would achieve a breakthrough, and he gave Chase a fist and palm salute with admiration."You're too kind, Elder Nigel. You're the senior. I can't accept such a great gesture from you." Chase quickly stopped Nigel from giving him the salute.Nigel was old and senior enough to be his ancestor. It would be rude to accept a salute from him. Chase did not want to show any disrespect."How fortunate we are to have a genius disciple like you in the Desolate Ancient Sect. Please allow me to show my respect," Otto gushed with admiration as he bowed at Chase too."Please. You're much too kind. You don't need to do this. Master, help me talk some sense into them." Chase got flustered as he tried to stop Otto from bowing at him while looking at Topher for help."Chase, you're my master from no
Nigel and the other elders would probably let him off if they came to him for compensation.Topher, Otto, and the other elders would speak up here and there when they saw what was happening.Chase answered every question thrown at him. He was feeling guilty and could only leave a positive impression on his sect master, master, and the elders by maintaining a good attitude.The question and answer session lasted a day and a night.Chase initially felt annoyed.However, the questions were about the Order of the Path Intent. The answers required long explanations to be understood.Besides that, the elders from the Desolate Ancient Sect had been cultivating for years. They had accumulated deep questions that required answering.Some of these questions sparked inspiration in Chase. He even spotted blind spots in his enlightenment. However, he would always quickly find the solution due to his high intelligence.Besides answering everyone's questions, Chase managed to deepen his under
"Yes, I've mastered it." By this point, Nigel's face has practically collapsed. Chase backed up two steps before confirming his success."Well, let's see it, then!" Topher also zipped forward and planted himself right in front of Chase.Chase felt crowded and retreated another step."Sure thing, Master." He raised his hand. A stream of Five Colors Divine Light burst forth like a five-hued laser beam, drilling straight through the hall's floor.Staring at the bowl-sized hole that appeared to tunnel toward the earth's core, Nigel lost all restraint."He really did it! Chase actually mastered it! This is incredible, absolutely incredible!" he bellowed with pure elation while attempting to sling his arm around Chase's shoulders.Chase felt a bit alarmed and backed away several more steps.This time, though, having just channeled the Five Colors Divine Light, his retreat activated the Five Element Escape Technique.Nigel, a stage-three martial god king Supreme Elder, could not eve
Normally, disciples only restrained themselves and minded their manners when elders came to inspect them.When disciples approached elders, the elders typically acted rather dismissively.Why did everything seem backward today?Seva could not make sense of it at all.Still, her beloved arrived looking as elegant and poised as always. She rushed forward eagerly. "Chase, welcome!"Chase gave a polite nod. "Master, Sect Master, esteemed elders. I'm here. Did you need something? If not, I should probably go."Before Topher and Otto could answer, he turned to leave. Spotting this, Nigel shot forward and caught his arm.Chase felt the pressure rolling off him and realized things just got exponentially worse. His master looked so anxious. He was definitely going to pay big time for this."Mas... Nigel!" He spun around, nearly calling out 'Master' before realizing it was Nigel instead!Thank goodness for his quick reflexes. He corrected himself immediately.Was the medicinal field he
At this moment, Nigel found Otto far more agreeable.Of course, more crucially, Nigel glimpsed hope for his own advancement through Chase.As a Supreme Elder, his cultivation remained stagnant for countless years. Advanced age had caused his realm to plummet from stage nine of the martial god king realm all the way to stage five.He could not even match the newest generation of stage-three martial god kings anymore.With his lifespan nearing its end, anxiety consumed him.Originally, Nigel made peace with his fate, planning to dedicate himself entirely to nurturing younger Garth family members.Now, Chase actually demonstrated potential to master the Five Colors Divine Light and fuse different Orders of the Path to boost cultivation.More importantly, Chase had grasped both the Life and Death Order of the Path and the Destiny Order of the Path.These two Orders of the Path carried immense importance for Nigel.The cultivation method he practiced was the Desolate Ancient Evergr
