Chapter 616: Embarking On The Shameful Way...
“Tell me, Kenji, how does one embark on the second way—the shameful way, according to your words?”
“Really simple. Just go to the inner sect area and ring the bell at the far end. Wait, what!?” Kenji asked, in shock, his brain finally able to process Zeras’s words, as Zeras tapped him twice on his shoulder before moving on to his mountain abode.
“Thanks for the tips, my loyal General...” Zeras said, waving to him from afar as his back rapidly disappeared into the distance.
“What did I just do?” Kenji asked himself in shock as he looked dumbly at where Zeras left before swallowing and entering his own cave abode.
In the middle of the pitch-dark night, a figure could be sighted sitting at the highest point of the mountain, his eyes calm as he looked into the distant meandering stream.
“So that’s what they are all planning, huh? For me to take the shameful way of joining the inner sect, so I earn the ire of all elders and also that of the remaining inner sect disciples...” Zeras mused with a gentle smile on his face.
He had absolutely no idea that he ought to have received some sort of invitation to join the inner sect, nor had he even had the thought of joining the inner sect come into his head. The only reason why he needed to right now was because he had achieved the peak in his manuals and he would have to gain access to higher floors of the Martial God Hall to collect the next level manuals. He also needed access to the Shadow Oppression Valley for those in the inner sect area.
“How stupid. They misunderstood my intention of wanting to become an inner sect disciple. I don’t care about being an inner sect or not. If I could have access to the highest levels of the Martial God Hall, and the inner sect area Shadow Oppression Valley, while still being an outer sect disciple, I wouldn’t even consider the inner sect at all...” Zeras murmured to himself.
“It’s as if I came here only a minute ago...” Zeras mused to himself as he arrived before the elder, who had drool all over his table.
Once more, instead of waking him up, Zeras simply stretched his hands towards the bottle, as the man reflexively shifted the bottle away from his grasp, now raising his head.
“It’s bloody you again, now what do you want this time...” The elder said with a grumpy expression as Zeras smiled shamelessly and placed the three manuals in front of him.
“I plan on returning these...” He said as the man looked at the manuals, wanting to roll his eyes, but stopped as he stared hard at the manual covers before turning to Zeras, a strange glint in his eyes.
“Have you cultivated these manuals to their peak?” He asked, as Zeras couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow at the man’s sudden liveliness, but he replied to him.
“Yes. The Nine Star Hegemon Arts only have two stages though. The Desolate Star Body and the Angered Defier Star Body. That’s the only two stages there are, and I have practiced them already,” Zeras said, as he closed his eyes and opened them once more, but this time they were pitch black, with two stars revolving in them.
He could see the shock that flashed through the elder’s eyes on sighting the stars and Zeras shut his eyes close once more before opening them as the stars disappeared.
“You were able to practice a forbidden art?”
