"It looks like becoming popular is not good." He picked up those jades and checked their information even though he had guessed what they could be,
"As I thought." He shook his head and put them in his spirit ring. Like Milia, there were four more invitations similar to her.
"Haiz, am I that handsome? But I haven't even shown my face." While thinking about this, he returned back to his courtyard.
"They took a lot of my time, and I got delayed. However, this is not a problem for me as I can simply visit the library tomorrow morning. Moreover, I can buy pills from the exchange hall too," He smiled.
He had received a lot of contribution points from all the disciples he had rescued today. So, he was rich right now.
He then took out the cleansing pill and some other pills that were gifted earlier from his spirit ring and began swallowing them.

The next day, early in the morning,
"Haha, I've leveled up to 36. Cultivation is really easy for me." Davion laughed inside his room. Not only did he learn powerful spiritual arts in a jiffy, he even unlocked a bloodline while leveling up in just a day.
"Now, time to go." He stood up and left his room. He saw Joanna cultivating near the pool and Danny standing there looking at her closely.
"Father!" Danny called out immediately when he saw him and ran to him.
"What is it?" Davion asked.
"When will Ryland come out? I'm getting bored without him," Danny spoke.
"I don't know. He is cultivating, and I think it will take a long time," Davion replied. The energy contained in those treasures was too large for someone in the Qi refining stage to absorb. If it was anyone except Ryland, they would surely die due to excessive energy.
"Is that so?" Danny became sad.
Seeing this, Davion took out a bow and some arrows from his ring and said, "Why don't we play a game?"
Danny's eyes lit up when he heard it.
"Try to shoot down that bird," Davion pointed his finger on the roof of his courtyard.
"So far!" Danny exclaimed.
"Yes." Davion nodded and fired an arrow straight in that direction.
"Swish."
The arrow brushed past the bird and it became alerted due to this sudden movement. Thus, it flew away in fear. Nonetheless, it couldn't escape due to the formation and could only hide in a tree nearby.
"This is how you should fire an arrow. But it's too difficult to hit it even for me. If you can do it then I will give you something good." He passed the bow to him and patted his shoulder.
"Yes." Danny had a smile on his face.
"Ok! I am going. I will be coming late," Davion waved his hand and left.
***
On his way to the elders' peak, Davion deeply thought about Danny.
"According to my guess, he definitely possesses the Heavenly Body. But I don't know his grade. The other question is whether he can cultivate or not? However, I don't think this matters much as he can simply become stronger by consuming treasures."
A few minutes later, he arrived at the bottom of the peak and saw those halls. He first entered the library but didn't see anyone except for the jade slips on the shelves.
"Is there nobody in charge here?" He muttered as he went through the shelves.
"Eh!" Suddenly one of the jades caught his attention.
"Jade slips and ways to inscribe upon them" He saw this written above it.
"Good one." He picked up and instantly infused his spiritual energy. But nothing happened.
"Damn, how could I forget about the contribution points?" He cursed and took out his token. The projection of his points emerged, and the jade finally shined. The points decreased, and lots of information were poured into his mind. Since he was wealthy, he didn't even bother counting how many points had been deducted.
"Oh! So, there are two methods to do it. One can either use an inscribing brush or their soul Qi and Divine Sense. With the help of an inscribing brush, even a weak cultivator would be able to record information in the jade while the other method requires one to have reached at least the Nascent Soul Stage."
"Interesting." Now, he finally knew why there were books instead of Jades in the Bone and Devil Sect.
"Without the Divine Sense, one wouldn't be able to write the characters in a uniform way. There would always be at least one character containing inappropriate Qi."
"Thus, controlling your Qi is the most important thing. It sounds similar to how the Alchemist and Artifact Masters have to control their flames and Qi with their Divine Sense during pill refining and artifact manufacturing. A slight mistake would ruin everything."
"Although I don't possess Divine Sense, I have perfect control of my spiritual energy due to the panel. So, I should be able to handle it."
Then he gathered his spiritual energy into his fingertips and began writing in the air.
"I would have liked to hang out with you today. But your other friends also invited me and this made me quite conflicted. I thought for a while and couldn't make any decision. So, it's better if you can come up with something."
This text was flickering between silver and gold just like the color of his spiritual energy.
He then took out the jades he had obtained from those girls from his spirit ring and flicked them into the air. They floated and didn't fall down.
"Go"
He swept his hand forward and the text slowly entered into the jades. He kept his focus and didn't dare have any thoughts.
A minute later, Davion stood there with the jades in his hand. Next, he came out of the hall and gazed in the direction of the Core Disciples Peak.
"This should settle this matter for the time being. I wouldn't do this if they didn't have Elders behind their backs. It's just a courtesy after all." He thought and threw them in the air.
Afterward, he immediately took out his bow and fired three arrows made from spiritual energy.
"Swish...swish...swish"
These arrows took those jades along with them straight ahead.
"This should be enough." He withdrew his bow and went inside once again. He then put his attention on the shelves containing information about souls and restrictions.
***
Milia who was sitting in her room abruptly sensed something outside her courtyard.
"This.." She rushed out without any delay and saw an arrow coming towards her.
"Bang"
The arrow collided with the formation and stopped. Nevertheless, it didn't vanish but rather stuck on it.
"Isn't that my jade?" She could finally see what it was. So, she took back her formation. Only then did the arrow fade and the jade fell in her hands.
"Did he send some message?" She went through this jade, and she became angry right away.
"Ahh"
"How dare they? Who could they be?"
One could hear such similar shouts coming from five different courtyards in the Core Disciples Peak.
***
A week passed by in the blink of an eye,
During this time, the sect was peaceful as before the Devil Invasion. This was because no Devil Kings and Devil Emperors intruded the territory of the sect after that incident a week ago. It seemed like they had suffered heavy losses. Not only that, most of the devils retreated back and the remaining ones were easily taken care of by the outer and inner court disciples.
Thus, the disciples were happy thinking that they had won, and the sect had become quite lively. However, this was not the same for the higher-ups of the sect. They knew that this was just a calm before the storm. Who knew what those three old men and Devil Emperor Conard were planning.
As for Davion, he leisurely spent this week in the library. He would stay inside the whole day and only leave when the sun was about to set. After returning he would then consume pills that he had exchanged from the exchange hall.
But the sad thing was that the Soul Qi Refining pills were not available in a large amount. He could only get them when the elders had finished making them. This was why he still hadn't leveled up again. Nonetheless, he was getting closer.
"Today is the day.." Davion muttered while looking at the clear blue sky from his courtyard. He was currently wearing a loose black robe instead of the sect's usual robe. Inside a white cloth was wrapping up his upper part. This made one think that he was injured.
"Humm" Suddenly his expression changed as he sensed someone on the roof of his courtyard.
He disappeared and appeared there at once.
"Elder!" Davion saw an old man standing there with a smile on his face. Indeed, it was Elder Vance.
"Kid, your senses are terrifyingly sharp. Deserving to be the disciple who slew every single devil king a week ago," Vance praised.
"It's nothing," Davion replied.
"Haha, but it looks like it was not easy for you." Vance eyed his white cloth inside.
Davion awkwardly smiled and didn't explain it. But rather asked, "Why are you here Elder?"
"It is to reward the disciple who had ranked at the top of the ranking list," Vance answered.
"Oh!" Davion understood it.
"But I should not be rewarding you. After all, you had hidden your cultivation base. So, wouldn't it be bullying to take part in the rankings of the inner court disciples?" Vance explained.
"Of course." Davion could only nod his head.
"Hehe, but since it's you, I have decided to let it go," Vance chuckled. He had become very fond of this kid since he saved those disciples.
"Then what will be the reward?" Davion got excited. How could he let the free reward go to waste?
"It's becoming the disciple of the Sect Master. But you can forget about it as you have already taken Liliana as a Master." Vance reminded him.
"Does this mean that I won't be getting anything?" Coldwater was poured all over his head.
Seeing his reaction, Vance generously said, "No. You can ask for pills, artifacts, and any other things in exchange."
"Really?" Davion felt that he had heard wrong.
"Why do I lie to you?" Vance looked impatient.
Davion thought for a while and spoke. "I want a powerful fire-attributed spiritual art."
"Eh! Didn't Liliana give you any spell? This is not something you should be requesting from me. Not only that, why do you want a spell of that element? As a disciple of Liliana, shouldn't you have a Thunder spiritual root?" Vance was confused.
Davion pointed towards his garden and Vance glanced in that direction.
"Damn, are you joking with me?" Vance nearly coughed out blood in anger. How can a demon beast cultivate a human spell? Yes, Davion was pointing his finger at Joanna.
