Chapter 456: Tread Careully

"Alchemy Hall is in Emerald Province, which is almost in the center of all the provinces, while Heavenly Flame Palace is in Phoenix Province, which is slightly farther than even Jade Province..."

Sun Xiurong finally finished her explanation and looked at Lin Feng curiously.

"So, have you decided which sect is perfect for you, Immortal Lin?"

Lin Feng nodded and smiled slightly. "Yes, I will just stay with you..."

Sun Xiurong got bewildered as she didn’t understand what he was saying, but suddenly realization dawned upon her. "You mean Mysterious Heaven Sect?"

"Yes..."

"But wouldn’t it be better for you to join Alchemy Hall? You can get a lot of exclusive resources for your alchemy, which are rarely found in other regions or sects. Also the cultivation technique of Alchemy Hall gives insights into improving the control over flames..."

She really felt Alchemy Hall was the best option for him. It was the most famous of all the strongest sects in this world, and their disciples enjoyed a higher status than their peers from other sects.

"Fairy Sun, why do you think I am an alchemist? Also, do you really think that Alchemy Hall will be able to help me create a pill with five or six Dao Runes?"

Sun Xiurong got stunned before becoming shocked upon hearing him mention five to six Dao Runes.

Till now, the highest number of runes someone had achieved was five, and it was when an elder of Alchemy Hall created a lower realm pill.

That’s why she was absolutely shocked to see Lin Feng create a peak Initiation Realm pill with four Dao Runes, even when he was only at the early stage.

As for six rune pills, she doubted that anyone had created one, or else it would be known throughout the world.

"Immortal Lin, your standards are really higher than the heavens, but it’s a good thing, since only ambitious people have a chance to succeed in doing something extraordinary..."

Sun Xiurong felt that given his talent, his dream of creating a six Dao Rune pill was only natural.

Her master also told her to have the ambition to tear the heavens apart with a single strike of her sword, a task which she wholeheartedly thought was impossible to achieve.

Lin Feng became a little amused about her talking about ambitions. He wondered if she would believe that he had already created six Dao Rune pills in the past.

"Anyway, it seems your mind is made up, Immortal Lin, so let me tell you in detail about Mysterious Heaven Sect.

As I said, it follows almost all the paths, so we have pavilions for each path, which are almost independent of each other. There is the Alchemy Pavilion, Weapon Pavilion, Sword Pavilion, Battle pavilion and few others.

Every pavilion has a head elder, and they are equivalent to the sect master of the pavilion. The real sect master of the sect is always from the Origin Pavilion, which was the first foundational pavilion of the sect.

Only truly exceptional disciples are chosen to become part of the Origin Pavilion when they reach the Manifestation Realm.

I am from the Sword Pavilion, and the head elder of my pavilion is Cui Shuyin. She was one of the elders who came to this town after getting news of my disappearance... Sigh, she always worries about me even when I don’t want her to do so..."

"Isn’t it a good thing to have someone looking out for you in this world?" Although Lin Feng said that, he already got the feeling why she was reluctant.

Sun Xiurong took a deep breath when she heard that. "I-I don’t hate it, it’s just that my master says that given Elder Cui’s talent, it won’t be long before we get separated..."

As she said that, Sun Xiurong was reminded of the family she had left behind in the lower world. It had been many years, and although most of her attachment had long since faded, a small lingering desire to see them again still remained in her heart. That was why she never wanted to form familial bonds in this world. She did not wish to experience that sense of loss again.

Lin Feng was right in his assumption. This is the phase everyone has to go through. Some overcome these emotional bindings very easily, while some are burdened by them for eternity.

Sun Xiurong shook her head and cleared her thoughts before smiling slightly. "So, when are you planning to go to the sect, Immortal Lin?"

"I will stay a few more days in this town, after that I will head out. If you want, then you can leave, Fairy Sun, there is no need to burden yourself unnecessarily for my sake..."

He hadn’t saved her while expecting anything in return. So he wouldn’t mind if she wanted to leave now. She had already given him enough knowledge for him to understand the basic structure of this world. Not to mention, she always mentioned her master, which made him a little worried inwardly.

The fact that her master thought that Thousand Sword Sect, one of the strongest sects in this world, was crude, and that she could see through the talents of cultivators to judge their fate, was enough to tell him that she wasn’t ordinary.

He would rather stay away from such mighty figures for the time being. If she was even a little temperamental and decided that he might become a hindrance to her disciple, then who knows what fate she would decide for him.

Right now, he didn’t want to risk his life in any way. His dreams of becoming immortal aside, he had a big family to take care of now. He had to tread the path a little more carefully from now on.

His previous world was very weak, so he was confident in his survival one way or another even when he was at the lower realms. Here, things were different.

Node worlds are like gathering points for cultivators, and sometimes even cultivators from higher worlds pay a visit to these worlds.

So, laying low was the better option for the time being.
