The Story Never Ends

"Damn, this kid is really evil. He even managed to have a breakthrough while fighting." Thaddeus was totally shocked.

"If I had gotten him earlier. Our sect wouldn't have fallen so low." he sighed.

Then he looked at Davion for a long time and finally made up his mind.

"Davion, you did a really good job. You will stay with me after the lecture tomorrow." he smiled.

Davion didn't understand what the Sect Master wanted him for. So, he just nodded his head.

Hendrix, who saw everything, got really angry.

He then jumped onto the platform and confidently shouted, "It's my turn."

Then he gazed at Isla directly as she was the only person left in the sect who was at Qi refining state.

Isla also looked over and slowly stood up and walked to the platform.

"Isla, how close are you to the middle stage of Qi refining?" Thaddeus suddenly asked.

"Not yet.."

Davion clearly saw a trace of disappointment flash across the Sect Master's eyes.

"It looks like we will again take the last place in this Conference." Thaddeus became sad.

Then he looked at Davion and said, "Watch them how they fight. Cultivators at Qi refining state can use Qi and cast various spells while fighting. This is what separates the Body Tempering State and the Qi refining state. This is the state where cultivation truly starts. You have a long way to go."

On the platform, Isla and Hendrix were looking at each other. Hendrix said, "You are only at the early stage of Qi refining. You can't beat me. So, just give up."

"Even though I can't beat you, I am not willing to give up this easily," Isla said as she poured her Qi into her hands.

"Shadow bind," as she said, a black smoke floated out of her body which turned into small tentacles and it shot straight towards Hendrix.

Seeing this he said with anger, "You have not even understood this technique properly. Let me show you how it's done."

He channeled his Qi into his hands and said, "Dark Hands". Both his hands were covered by black smoke and he easily caught those tentacles coming towards him. When he was trying to show off his skills to the Sect Master, he saw that the Sect Master was not paying much attention to him but rather was explaining something to that kid. Huge anger immediately flared up in him.

On the other side, Thaddeus was explaining these techniques to Davion, "As you can see, Shadow bind and Dark Hands are the techniques that you can obtain from the secret hall in the library. One of them is used to bind the enemy and the other is used to deal huge damage. The Dark Hands also have corrosive property."

Davion nodded and asked some questions. Thaddeus smiled and was about to answer it when they heard a loud grunt coming from the platform.

Isla fell heavily to the floor. Half of her face was corroded. Blood was spilling all over. She took a last look at Hendrix and fainted.

Seeing this, Hendrix got really scared. "I'm sorry, Junior Apprentice Sister… I…"

He continued no further. A match in this setting should have at most been a friendly spar, and blows should not have been followed through. But now, he had just destroyed her face and injured her. Even though this could not severely injure her, he had still managed to cross the line.

Thaddeus was emotionless. Without paying attention to him, he was looking at Isla. He took out a pill from his space ring and passed it to one of the disciples at his side.

"Give this pill to her and take her back to her room. That's all for today's sparring. Disperse." At that, he turned around and began to leave.

Even though he didn't have much interaction with Hendrix, he could tell that Hendrix was narrow-minded and extremely aggressive. Moreover, he was selfish, bearing a grudge at the slightest offense against him and thinking of taking revenge all the time. He merely kept up a good front before the Sect Master.

But now he had dealt such a severe blow to his own Junior Sister by accident. Although Sect Master did not exhibit any reaction, that in itself was the greatest reaction.

He looked at Hendrix for the last time and returned to his cave.

Thaddeus came out of the sect and again came infront of the graveyard. This time he went a little bit further. There were many black ancestral tablets packed densely together. Infront of these tablets was a large lifelike black statue. This was the statue of the founding ancestor of the Bone and Devil Sect.

After standing there for a long time, he took out a dark yellow scroll from within his sleeve. The scroll was tattered and torn, but the two large words on its surface remained clear; "Devil Summoning".

This was the Secret Art that he had intended to impart to Davion today. He was also a little hesitant about it because he had previously wanted to pass it to Hendrix. But today, he had witnessed the anger and aggression that had been hidden deep in Hendrix's heart for such a long time erupt from concealment.

"I had thought about imparting this to Isla as she is naive and hard working. But her talent is really too weak. She can't even learn the normal arts in the library properly. Let alone this Secret Art. It looks like Davion might be the only candidate."

He had no idea how long he could still keep this sect running. His only wish now was to pass down this Secret Art.. "This is the only inheritance left from the disaster a thousand years ago," he sighed.
