Atticus knew that he wasn't going to remain safe for long if he kept being in such a passive position. Li ming who was in his arms had long since passed out, this can be seen as a small blessing for her as she would not have to experience whatever catastrophe occurred next."Rhea, isn't there something I could do. I mean I was brought back for a reason and I refuse to believe that I would just die this fast!"[Void energy has long since been detected, the spatial crack is fueled by it, its source being the peculiarity of the mutated red plume spirit tree][Master Atticus just needs to absorb this energy, and this will lead to the closure of the crack.]"Wait, so all this time I could just have absorb the energy?"Atticus stared at the waves of power that flowed all around the red plume spirit tree, it was so dense that trying to absorb something like this was akin to madness.[You had imposed restrictions on the system on absorption master Atticus] Rhea retorted, referring to Atticus'
The casualty of this years hunt was unprecedented and no one would ever have guessed that something like this would have happened. In fact sect had tried to make sure something like this never happened and it could be said that their very act of trying to prevent this also led to the very thing they were trying to prevent.Every year before the traditional sect hunt, Core formation experts would scout the entire forest pruning the beasts and reducing their numbers if it surpassed the amount they had set in stone.This led to the beast breeding immense hate for the cultivators and they and their offspring were being used as a whetstone to temper their young cultivators.Gorgon and the others had tried to fight back but they could not hope to win against the cultivators. The bloodhound sect isn't the only one they would have to face even if they won. The sect was built near the forest for the sole purpose of keeping the beasts in the forbidden forest in check and that was how this tradi
Atticus found himself in a dimly lit hall, surrounded by elders. The cold chains held him in a kneeling position, triggering an unsettling wave of déjà vu. The stark resemblance to his past life, where betrayal led to his beheading, struck him with an intensity that made his breath erratic. Flashes of memories, both from his current and previous life, haunted him."Atticus, I would have to apologize for the chains and awkward position you are in, but we have to take precautions," Elder Chen said, feeling complicated with how Atticus was being treated as a criminal immediately, even though it was not voiced. He didn't know what happened, but it was certainly clear that his granddaughter was only alive due to Atticus's interference, as that was the only logical explanation."Unchain me!" Atticus, whose breathing had become erratic, screamed loudly. This caught everyone off guard as they did not expect Atticus to immediately take an aggressive stance. But the position Atticus found himse

Are speaking of that entity? Is that a demon? How the hell did I even absorb energy from it?" Atticus asked these questions in confusion as he tried to make sense of his situation.(The death of the other cultivators was due to the demon absorbing their vitality. The system activated your bloodline potential as a defense mechanism. This in return unlocked one of your bloodli
In the heart of the Blue Sword Academy, a bright room with intricate design served as the meeting ground for Master Lin and his soldiers to report their findings to the enigmatic Dean. The room was adorned with ancient tapestries and shelves lined with dusty tomes, creating an atmosphere of silent wisdom. This was the Dean of The blue sword academy's office.Dean Feng, a figure draped in unassuming robes, sat behind an intricately carved desk. His eyes, however, held a keen intelligence that transcended the mortal facade. The soldiers, attired in the academy's regal blue, filed into the room with disciplined precision.Master Lin stepped forward, a crisp salute accompanying his report. "Dean, we've thoroughly investigated the scene of the incident as per your instructions."The Dean gestured for him to continue, his eyes betraying a spark of interest beneath their calm exterior.Master Lin cleared his throat before delving into the details. "We discovered evidence of a spatial anomaly
Master Lin and Atticus left the dean's office and Atticus was escorted by one of the soldiers to an inn located in a town near the academy. There was were he was going to stay until the day of the 2nd phase Blue sword academy's entry exam, Which was in a weeks time.Having only a couple of clothings and nothing else there wasn't so much to unpack when he got to the room assigned to him.Mentally Atticus felt exhausted and at this point he thought it best to start mapping out his goals and plans, also reading up on information about the entry exams from the information scroll given to him by the soldier.There are 5 academies that hold the power over the Azure sky continent. They basically represent the position of a First grade on this continent but with there joint power there can be said to be many times more stronger, but of course with great power comes great politics. So while each academy has no monopoly over the power of resources in this continent, they are still on the exact
A week passed by in a flash and over this week nothing much happened as Atticus only focus of studying the new knowledge he had gained.There was a good reason why Atticus had asked for arcane studies from the system initially. It was the only branch of cultivation study that he had come in contact with regularly in his past life and it had always fascinated him.In this pugilistic world there isnt just one path to power. While the most common one was becoming an essence cultivator, which is basically the absorption of spirit qi to nourish the body and soul but mainly to increase a person sensation to qi and be able to manipulate it using different techniques.There are also different paths to power, and one of such is to become a mage.Some may say that there isn't much difference between a mage and cultivator as they both use spirit qi in their advance, others may argue that they weren't the same.In both school of thoughts there is an evidence of truth as mages do manipulate spirit
Entry exam in mind Atticus quickened his pace as he finally got near the academy, reaching the imposing gates of the Blue Sword Academy, Atticus was stopped by a pair of stoic guards clad in light blue armor. Their gazes were sharp, scrutinizing every applicant."Are you an applicant?" one guard asked, his voice gruff.Atticus held out the token , the polished metal glinting in the morning sun. "Yes, I am."The token had been given to him by one of the soldiers by the order of the dean. Everyone who passed the first phase of the exam or possess a slot will be give a token imprinted their aura for identification.The guard retrieved the token, his spirit sense sweeping over it. A curt nod confirmed its authenticity, and with a gesture, he ushered Atticus through the gates.Inside the academy grounds bustled with activity. Students, some older and some barely teenagers, hurried towards designated areas, their faces etched with determination. Atticus felt a surge of energy course through
