Chapter 164: Heaven Impacts once more (1/2)

Alex and the rest of the group fell into thought. Finally, after a while, Alex said, ”Will the Elders do something to me?” he asked. He was afraid that if the Elders themselves get in the way, then he would have little way to get out of the situation.

Even his nigh-invincible Immortal Concealment technique could be detected if it were the Elders. They were after all a major realm higher than him.

”No, that won't happen. The Elders care either too much about the sect, or at the very least too much about their face to something so underhanded. However, they would start sending their disciples to mess with you. They won't let you learn or train the entire week, and continuously register you to battles, trying to tire you and maybe eventually beat you.”

”If they do that, you won't have enough time in the day to focus on yourself and go do something productive or maybe register your own fight to get to a higher rank. Who knows honestly what they would do? But they will try to hinder you, that's for sure. Especially to not let the other Elders have you.”

Alex thought for a moment and said, ”That should be fine then. At the very least, I am confident in beating any of the students I meet in the sect for now.”

Wen Cheng got a little surprised at such an ostentatious statement from his disciple. ”What do you mean you can beat anyone? You think you can beat the core disciples?” he asked.

”I should be able to, but that would be revealing all my secrets, master,” he replied.

Wen Cheng started getting more and more curious. ”What do you mean? What other secrets do you have?” he asked.

Alex stopped talking for a second and thought for a while. 'Should I tell them?' he contemplated for a bit and said, ”Let's go inside first.” He walked into the training hall where nobody could eavesdrop into.

”Here is the thing master,” he said as he brought out an old, dusty-looking book. The moment they saw it, both Wen Cheng and Luo Mei were surprised. ”The book from the auction? You got it?” he asked.

”Yes. Master bought it for me since I could read it,” he said. The moment he said that both Wen Cheng and Luo Mei's eyes turned wide, while Liu Xin looked at them wondering why they reacted in such a way.

”Wait, did you say you can read it?” Luo Mei asked in surprise.

”What is the book about?” Wen Cheng asked, accepting his disciple's words without questioning. He had seen enough to be deterred by such small things at this point.

”It's a technique called Heaven's Impact, that lets you use Spiritual sense to attack the other people's mind. Depending on how different our mental capacity is, I can make them faint like I did Huo Tu back in the fighting stage today,” he explained.

”So, you really did read that language,” Wen Cheng said in shock. ”Does that mean you've read the language in the black stele as well?”
