Chaos Devourer System

Chapter 616: Embarking On The Shameful Way…

“Tell me, Kenji, how does one embark on the second way—the shameful way, according to your words?”

“Really simple. Just go to the inner sect area and ring the bell at the far end. Wait, what!?” Kenji asked, in shock, his brain finally able to process Zeras’s words, as Zeras tapped him twice on his shoulder before moving on to his mountain abode.

“Thanks for the tips, my loyal General…” Zeras said, waving to him from afar as his back rapidly disappeared into the distance.

“What did I just do?” Kenji asked himself in shock as he looked dumbly at where Zeras left before swallowing and entering his own cave abode.

In the middle of the pitch-dark night, a figure could be sighted sitting at the highest point of the mountain, his eyes calm as he looked into the distant meandering stream.

“So that’s what they are all planning, huh? For me to take the shameful way of joining the inner sect, so I earn the ire of all elders and also that of the remaining inner sect disciples…” Zeras mused with a gentle smile on his face.

He had absolutely no idea that he ought to have received some sort of invitation to join the inner sect, nor had he even had the thought of joining the inner sect come into his head. The only reason why he needed to right now was because he had achieved the peak in his manuals and he would have to gain access to higher floors of the Martial God Hall to collect the next level manuals. He also needed access to the Shadow Oppression Valley for those in the inner sect area.

Only now did he know there was an ongoing plot of some elders visibly targeting him, and was he so stupid that he didn’t know it was probably Grand Elder Celestine and probably those two others. And if he remembered well, he had also offended Vegax, whom he promised to kill in the most brutal way possible one day, and Vegax’s father was also a grand elder. With four grand elders not finding him pleasing to the eyes, they all hold enough power to control all elders to not hand him an invitation card.

“How stupid. They misunderstood my intention of wanting to become an inner sect disciple. I don’t care about being an inner sect or not. If I could have access to the highest levels of the Martial God Hall, and the inner sect area Shadow Oppression Valley, while still being an outer sect disciple, I wouldn’t even consider the inner sect at all…” Zeras murmured to himself.

“I have a war with death and I only have two years now. I don’t have time for some stupid petty sect conflicts.

If anyone dared block my way because of something as stupid as their useless ego, I will sever that stupidity away from them and continue on my way…” Zeras said, as his eyes flashed brightly with a silvery light, an otherworldly aura emanating from him that caused the flowing stream below him to screech to a stop and the air itself to stop moving.

But everything, after five seconds, once again continued as he withdrew his aura and took a deep breath in. Immediately, the ginormous ring once again appeared mid-air, the starlight in the sky congregating on his figure as he began his nightly cultivation until the morning sun once again broke out.

At the early morning of Zeras, the outer sect disciples all wake up very early, full of energy, as they all wanted to witness the new hero of the outer sect area passing by on his way to his bold work.

But today, they found out the young man didn’t pass by at the exact time that he had always passed by for more than 300 days. Immediately, rumors of today being the ultimate day that they all have been waiting for quickly spread through the sect grounds, as the outer sect students all stayed at their homes with none of them leaving for their work too.

The first thing Zeras did, immediately after the sun appeared over the horizon, was to immediately jump down from the mountain peak and instantly run towards the Martial God Hall.

According to the sect rules, the various manuals and the battle arts must be returned after a year of possession, and today makes the year. To avoid breaking a sect rule, which might have calamitous effects on him, he first headed towards the Martial God Hall.

Unsurprisingly, there was almost nobody inside, since no one comes that early to the place, but surprisingly, Zeras could still see the scruffy beard elder and his strange bottle beside him.

“It’s as if I came here only a minute ago…” Zeras mused to himself as he arrived before the elder, who had drool all over his table.

Once more, instead of waking him up, Zeras simply stretched his hands towards the bottle, as the man reflexively shifted the bottle away from his grasp, now raising his head.

“It’s bloody you again, now what do you want this time…” The elder said with a grumpy expression as Zeras smiled shamelessly and placed the three manuals in front of him.

“I plan on returning these…” He said as the man looked at the manuals, wanting to roll his eyes, but stopped as he stared hard at the manual covers before turning to Zeras, a strange glint in his eyes.

“Have you cultivated these manuals to their peak?” He asked, as Zeras couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow at the man’s sudden liveliness, but he replied to him.

“Yes. The Nine Star Hegemon Arts only have two stages though. The Desolate Star Body and the Angered Defier Star Body. That’s the only two stages there are, and I have practiced them already,” Zeras said, as he closed his eyes and opened them once more, but this time they were pitch black, with two stars revolving in them.

He could see the shock that flashed through the elder’s eyes on sighting the stars and Zeras shut his eyes close once more before opening them as the stars disappeared.

“You were able to practice a forbidden art?”
