Path of Absolute Transcendence

The Shrine Mountain is one of the most historical places in the whole Enlightenment World. It was the birthplace of the first emperor of the world. He is called the Shrine Emperor.

He was the first one to reach the emperor realm in ancient times, and he chose the emperor title of shrine to honor his birth place.

He was born as a mortal who didn\'t have any qualifications to cultivate, but a heaven-defying treasure was born in the shrine mountain, and by using that treasure, he became the first emperor of the whole Enlightenment world.

He may not be the strongest person in the emperor realm, but his contribution made the whole cultivation world one step higher. Now Kai is now on his way to visit the legendary birthplace of the Shrine Emperor.

"There are also rumors about his inheritance being on the shrine mountain, but nobody has ever found it until now. So it may be just a rumor." Alex suddenly spoke.

Kai also thought that this may also be a rumor since nobody has ever found it until now.

The shrine mountain is located near the capital, so they reached it in one day.

"Sir, the carriage can only reach this far, and to reach the mountain, you need to walk by yourself, as it isn\'t suitable for riding the carriage to the peak." Said coachman.

"Okay, you can go back; we will manage it from here." Alex said this to the coach man.

"Dad, how can we climb this mountain? It\'s too big," Kai asked because the mountain is very tall; it looks like it\'s more than fifty kilometers in height.

He was amazed by the grandeur of the mountain. Its appearance was simply majestic, and the height of the mountain can only exist in a fantasy world like this.

"Well, it is one of the tallest mountains in the entire world, and the only way to go up is by flying. But you don\'t need to worry; I will take you up in no time." Alex said it in a proud tone.

After he said that, he took Kai on his shoulder, started flying straight to the peak. Then, after 10 minutes, they reached the peak. Riya also followed them closely to the peak.

\'I also need to fly on my own after I start cultivating,\' thought Kai.

After Alex reached the peak, Kai stood up from his father\'s shoulder and was amazed by the view.

\'The whole world is entirely different, and for the first time, I felt like I was in a different world.\' thought Kai.

There are only a few people at the top because, other than the scenery here, there is nothing special about this place. But this place is very good for relaxation.

Then the family enjoyed themselves in the mountains and ate the food that Riya made. It was a rare, peaceful time for their family. After enjoying the place, they decided to go down.

"Kai, the next place we are going will broaden your horizons," Alex said in a mysterious tone.

"Where are we going, dad?" Kai asked because he was curious about the place.

"I won\'t tell you; we will go and see tomorrow."

Then they flew down the mountain before night came and reached an inn to stay for the night.

The next day, Alex took another carriage for travel, and they started their journey. This time, they reached the destination in half a day. Kai was very surprised by the destination that Alex took him to. Because he took him to the sect.

[Slaughter Palace] is the name of the sect where Alex is working. The sect leader is in the saint emperor realm and is about to break through to the supreme realm; if he breaks into the supreme realm, the sect will be renamed as [Supreme Slaughter Palace].

But that is only if the sect leader breaks through the bottleneck.

The Slaughter Palace is named because the majority of the people here cultivate slaughter dao. It fully focuses on pure killing to prove dao. Other than the sect master, there is also a great elder in the saint emperor realm.

The Slaughter Palace is divided into an outer sect, an inner sect, and a core sect. The outer sect can be joined by anyone with the required qualifications, and for the inner sect, only the top talents of the outer sect can join.

For the core sect, nobody can join other than the blood descendants of the elders and sect master.

"Kai, come in; I will show you around the sect." Alex decided to become guide for Kai.

"Okay dad."

Then Alex showed Kai around the outer sect, and there is nothing special about the outer sect. The purpose of the outer sect is to filter out the talented individuals for the inner sect, so there isn\'t anything special in the outer sect.

"Dad, show me the inner sect," Kai asked, as he saw nothing interesting in the outer sect.

Then Alex took him to the inner sect and started showing around for him.

"Kai, this is the most important place in the entire sect. It is one of the foundations of the sect." Alex pointed to a building named Refining Tower.

"What is the use of [Refining Tower], dad?"

"The refining tower helps to temper the body by using a heavenly fire."

"Dad, what is a heavenly fire?" Kai asked, as this was a new term to him.

"A heavenly fire is a natural fire that is bred by the heavens, and they have their own ranking based on their uses and power."

"Then, what is the rank of this fire, dad?"

"This heavenly fire is called Red Scarlet Flame, and it is ranked 86th on the list. There are a total of 100 heavenly flames on the list, and don\'t underestimate this flame just because it is 86th on the list because it can easily turn you into ashes if you reach it.

It can even damage me, if I am careless, and this would be the case if it didn\'t have any owners. If a heavenly fire is owned by a powerful cultivator, then its power will increase tremendously." Alex explained about the heavenly fire.

"Dad, tell me about the top 10 heavenly fires."

"1. Chaos Flame

2. Green Lotus Flame

3. Karma Flame

4. Holy Sacred Flame

5. Golden Flame

6. Hell Demon Flame

7. Dragon\'s Heart Flame

8. Burning Soul Flame

9. Endless Blue Flame

10. Myriad Beast Flame.

For the uses of the flames, I will give you a book, and you can read the information." He handed a book that contains the information to Kai.

"Okay, dad, let\'s go to other places."

Then Alex showed him all the important places in the inner sect. There is a Sutra or scripture Pavilion that consists of all the techniques of the sect.

There are seven floors in the pavilion, and the first three floors are for the outer sect disciples, and the next three floors are for the inner sect disciples. The last floor is only for the core disciples.

The techniques in the Sutra Pavilion isn\'t free; It requires some contribution points to exchange for the desired book, and the contribution points are like the currency in the sect. It can be obtained by completing the task given by the sect.

Then there is the Alchemy Pavilion, which makes pills. They make the pill using medicinal material and some heavenly material if required. The pills are divided by grade.

They range from Grade one to Grade six, corresponding to each major realm. Each grade of pill can only be made by corresponding realm experts. The Alchemy Pavilion also requires a contribution point to exchange the pills.

The sect isn\'t some charity that gives everything away for free. It requires the disciples to pay something for the benefits enjoyed by them in the sect.

Then there is Mission Hall, which assigns missions for contribution points. By completing the mission, the contribution point can be obtained, which can be used for desired purchase.

"Kai, now I am going to take you to a very important place in the inner sect, and it is also a place where everybody in the sect will train, even the core disciples."

Then Alex took Kai to a place called Hell Field. After they entered the field, Kai felt very nauseous.

"Kai, close your nose with your hands. You need some time to adapt to the smell."

"Okay, dad." Kai replied, and Alex bought three tickets for them to see the match that was going in Hell Field.

"Come, we will sit there as it is near the field," Alex pointed to the seat near the battlefield.

Then the fight started between two people, and as the fight happened in the field, Kai watched them with interest. But suddenly, one guy swung his sword at his opponent\'s head, and his head flew away.

The blood splattered on Kai\'s face, and he was horrified, as it was the first time he had seen someone kill. Also, the fresh blood on his face made him vomit.

"Kai, are you okay? Did you feel dizzy?" Riya asked him worriedly.

"Hey Alex, why did you bring our child to such a place? Did something go wrong within your head?" Riya questioned Alex angrily.

"Riya, you know our child has to go through this challenge eventually. So I was preparing him for his future, and I didn\'t do it on purpose. I was also helpless." Alex said it with some pain in his tone.

"Mom, what dad did was correct. So don\'t scold him this time because he is helping me this time. But you can let him sleep outside for a few days because he didn\'t say it before."

"Yes, Alex, you need to sleep outside for one week," Riya also agreed with his opinion.

"But I didn\'t do anything wrong. I just forgot," Alex said in a pleading voice.

"No, what I said was punishment, and I won\'t change it." Riya didn\'t hear to Alex\'s pleading voice.
