Chapter 518 The Independent Faction

Before Dawn could even feel surprised by Daniel's sudden appearance, she looked down at the hand hich she was holding his odd rock a few seconds ago, and noticed that now, she was his wrist instead ” Sorry” She o

”Don't worry about it” said Daniel with indifference before casually floating in front of the four young women He then added with newfound interest, ”So that is the inter-dimensional portal”

Rose and the others looked at Daniel with the ued to regain her wits, and ask him, ”What do you mean? Isn't that the portal you've used to enter this universe? And how did we How did YOU get here so fast?!” In her tone, Daniel could sense a hint of exasperation, a feeling that her three co

To their surprise, instead of answering these questions, Daniel began to giggle An action which they had believed to have been caused by their helplessness and desperation for answers, but that in reality, had nothing to do with the in his mind, while they wouldn't have joined hi

-----

Meanwhile, In a sector of space tens of ht years away, three blood cultivators were floating in a still circle Two of theh expectations, while the third, was standing still with his large back pointed in the direction of his coer cultivator with sheer rage

The other two cultivators approached their now shaking companion, and the shorter of the two placed his hand onto the latter's shoulder before asking, ”Did you kill hie cultivator chose to answer by sie blood cultivator looked at the Daniel, or at the very least his dead body, the large cultivator was holding a well defined hand-shaped rock with four out of five fingers closed into a fist, and the fifth one straightened into a vulgar gesture

”I had hie blood cultivators as his blood e it co a fewthe pictures that appeared in his mind, Daniel felt more at ease His separation from his family had caused him to allow the worst possible scenarios to take a prevalent spot in hisaround with blood cultivators had been the first time since he had come to this universe in which he had been able to enjoy himself

Now more relaxed and confident, he turned to look at Rose and the others, and said, ”To answer your questions without explaining to you the full extent of my capabilities would be useless, and since I do not intend to, save yourself sos in the future”

Daniel's response left the four young wohout their entire lives, their questions were always met with a satisfactory answer, and that was because their fa they knew As blank slates, they would be filled with notions andessences andtheir power, they could start learning how to use it efficiently

That had not changed when the four of thee was secret Each student was allowed to learn whatever piece of knowledge the sect possessed, and their standing would change based on the result they would show

While being curious would have aided these four young women in their path of cultivation, that was only provided that they would rereed was not a passive state ofand hatred, but a reason for challenging and stealing from one's peers

Unfortunately, in the vaster world of cultivation, this mentality was extremely flawed In other domains, martial arts and the concept of mana were personal experiences And as such, one would not share them with the first person that would ask for them Daniel had discovered this flawed mentality in the society of Co his stay in this universe, but due to the ti women No cultivators of his universe would have dared to ask for another cultivator's secret, and that was a crucial and unspoken rule throughoutone's cards close to one's chest' was a philosophy that wasn't used in this universe, that did not mean that it was unknown This was shown by Rose's reaction, who instead of showing annoyance caused by Daniel's lack of willingness to share his knowledge, showed a realization that, ht have not been appropriate

”Very well” She said before turning towards the planet, which could be barely seen through the fleet of shi+ps and artifacts used by those ished to use the inter-dimensional portal, and added, ”What do we do now?”

”I heard that these portals are guarded by a fourth-ranked group that belongs to the independent faction” Said Cassie, aware that that would be a piece of inforh, at the roup, Daniel raised his broith interest, and asked, ”The independent faction What is that?” At the same ti, placed it in the space in front of hi the question, Cassie turned to look at Lilith, whoeable in the political sphere of Co to share what she kneith Daniel, but after she noticed the expecting looks on Dawn's and Cassie's faces, she let out a helpless sigh, and began to explain ”The independent faction is the only faction that does not compete for universes But despite their passive attitude, they boast the strongest entities in our domain Their job is to policy the other factions, and roups is maintained”

”Isn't a lack of competitiveness considered cowardly behavior, in this universe?”
