92 The Culpri (2/2)
”There is a traitor in the Sect and he has eliminated numerous disciples...”
”No Sect is free of traitors, even we have spies in other major Sects...”
”Let's gather the young disciples together and end this once for all...”
The one who seemed to be the leader of the three elders pulled out a medallion and used a spiritual energy thread to activate it, immediately the position of all the remaining disciples appeared in a sort of 3D map.
”There's a disciple near our position, maybe he saw or heard something about the struggle.”
After nodding to the first elder's comment, the three quickly flew in search of Rainer.
...
After using Void Step several times, he noticed that the amount of spiritual and spatial energy in his Astral Gate had nearly doubled!
This growth would not only allow him more flexibility in using his techniques but also gave him the option to learn even more about spatial energy from the Space-time Monarch cultivation manual!
Now that he had surprisingly advanced to the Core Formation stage, Rainer was able to learn even more powerful new techniques.
Trapped alone in an unknown epoch, it was best for Rainer to increase his individual strength rather than depend on Lerna or other external factors.
”I should also learn some techniques which use my spiritual energy, I used to be on a journey but now that I am in a Sect, there should be a lot of spiritual techniques to choose from!” Rainer thought before three figures landed in front of him.
”I just escaped from a night of distress and now this... It seems that the heavens do not want a Rainer beneath them... ”Rainer thought when he noticed that these three figures were not as simple as they appeared.
”Hey lad, what do you know about the wasteland behind you, did you see or hear something? ”Asked the shortest of the three elders, the hoods that covered their faces prevented any kind of recognition.
”Wh-What wasteland?” Rainer asked, pretending ignorance.
”They'll keep all my treasures if they're discovered, they don't seem to be after me!”
”But it's a good opportunity to get rid of everything that happened with Kirios.”Rainer thought before he spoke again.
”The truth is that I saw someone suspicious in the area yesterday, I found it strange because I recognized him as soon as I saw him, he was the one responsible for our Novice Mountain, Kirios!”Rainer tried to dramatize his argument while the elders listened attentively, he looked like a child telling the last blockbuster film to his grandparents.
”And that's it...” Rainer drank water after all the paraphernalia he had just spoke, he had mixed truths with lies and even if they proved it, they would be unable to relate him to what had happened.
The leader of the elders took a slip of jade and murmured something before putting it back away, a while later the jade slip lit up and a message appeared.
Kirios hasn't been seen for two days! The last time he was seen was near the Sacred Land.
The eyes of the elders became icy after discovering that a traitor had been hidden in the sect for so long, and Kirios was in the Core Fragmentation stage and had managed to breakthrough, how did he do it? They had a lot of work ahead of them....
