The Wizard Path From The Simulator

All those who were still lingering in the beam of light felt a sudden pulling force, and the next moment, they disappeared within the beam, only to reappear atop the White Jade Immortal Mountain.

When there was no one left inside the four beams of light, the pillars gradually began to fade away.

This signified that the Mystic Realm had completely closed.

The next opening might not be until two hundred years later.

The expressions of these people varied, their eyes looking towards Milton Cheney and the others with respect, admiration, and a hint of fear.

They were well aware that the individuals before them were all Golden Core True Immortals.

“Let the sects begin choosing the disciples for this Ascending Immortal Meeting.”

Milton Cheney spoke softly.

As his words fell, a sigh of relief arose in the hearts of the leaders from the other three sects.

They were genuinely afraid that Milton Cheney would use his strength to recruit disciples first, and although it would be somewhat against the rules, who could argue against Milton Cheney’s power?

Even if Milton Cheney had done so, they would have had to hold it in.

After all, in the Cultivation Realm, the strong are revered.

Luckily, Milton Cheney didn’t do so and adhered to the usual rules.

The sects competed fairly for disciples, relying on their own abilities.

Milton Cheney had given these people face, and naturally, they all gave Milton Cheney face in return.

Therefore, when the communication started, everyone ignored the cultivator with the Thunder Spiritual Root.

After Milton Cheney’s words fell, he did not continue to take the initiative to speak; nor did he send any messages to anyone.

As for the other two from his sect who had come with him, they had already begun to send messages to recruit disciples.

However, they also did not send a message to the cultivator with the Thunder Spiritual Root.

When Milton Cheney had taken the initiative to speak just now, they all thought that Milton Cheney valued the disciple with the Thunder Spiritual Root and wanted to take him as a direct disciple.

Therefore, they naturally would not overstep their boundaries.

As time passed, the cultivator with the Thunder Spiritual Root started finding it difficult to maintain his composure.

From time to time, he cast sidelong glances at those around him, only to realize that he seemed to be the only one being ignored.

Could it be that everyone else’s talents were better than his, and he was the worst?

How could that be?

He was well aware that his Spiritual Root was comparable to a singular Earth Spiritual Root.

At this moment, the genius with the Thunder Spiritual Root began to let his thoughts run wild.

Actually, according to his previous thoughts, even if he had truly failed at the Ascending Immortal Meeting, he would not have been too emotional about it.

Although the likelihood was small, he had considered it.

After all, joining the Four Nations sects wasn’t only through the channel of the Ascending Immortal Meeting.

But now it was different, for he had obtained a great opportunity in the trial.

If under such circumstances he failed to pass the trial of the Ascending Immortal Meeting and join a True Sect, his memory would be completely erased.

Even the possibility of being discovered by the Great Immortals present and losing his life over his opportunity was real.

After all, cultivators are not saints; those who could become Golden Core True Immortals have had an unimaginable number of lives in their hands.

So as time continued, Octavius Yarrow indeed found it harder to restrain himself.

“Esteemed True Immortals, I…”

Just as he spoke up, the gaze of every True Immortal present simultaneously shifted towards him.

Everyone had a different expression on their face.

Seeing this scene, Octavius Yarrow was somewhat baffled, and the speech he had prepared became stuck in his throat.

“Boy, the Purple Melody True Sect has already reserved you.”

With Milton Cheney’s words falling, a look of joy also appeared on Octavius Yarrow’s face.

He did not go on to say more and relaxed a bit, returning to the calm demeanor he had before.

At this moment, Octavius Yarrow sighed with relief in his heart.

Just now, he really thought he was going to be abandoned.

Fortunately, reality was as he imagined, the probability of a talent comparable to an Earth Spiritual Root being abandoned was too small.

Now he knew that he had already been reserved.

Purple Melody True Sect?

It seemed that the Purple Melody True Sect was in charge of the Ascending Immortal Meeting this time.

But why had none of the True Immortals from Purple Melody True Sect communicated with him just now?

He could not figure it out and decided not to think about it anymore.

After all, being able to join a True Sect was good enough; other matters were not of great concern to him.

With the opportunity he had this time, his future might very well soar to the heavens.

His gaze shifted slightly before finally settling on the figure of a young man.

This one must be the person in charge of the Purple Melody True Sect for this event.

He pondered to himself.

His ability to read people was not weak; he could vaguely tell that all the True Immortals present were looking to this young man as their leader.

But unbeknownst to him, as he observed Milton Cheney, Cheney was also using his spiritual awareness to unabashedly observe him.

“Indeed, the spiritual power has almost been completely replaced.”

Cheney muttered to himself.

At the moment, with his back to everyone, he seemed to be completely indifferent to the Ascending Immortal Meeting taking place.

But what he was truly pondering over, none of those present could guess.

This young man with the Thunder Spiritual Root is too anxious.

Others may not have noticed the change in his spiritual power, but Cheney had been intentionally paying attention to him from the start; how could he not be aware of the anomaly in his spiritual power?

Such a change in spiritual power, one hundred percent, indicates a switch in the cultivation method.

“Does that mean he has obtained a cultivation method?”

“Is there even a significant possibility that it’s a cultivation method from the White Jade Immortal Sect from a hundred thousand years ago?”

Cheney thought to himself, speculating about the young man’s opportunity.

If it truly were a cultivation method, then Cheney was undoubtedly interested.

However, he did not particularly wish to get involved in causal entanglements.

Thus, Cheney found himself deep in thought at this moment.

After a moment of reflection, Cheney decided to take a risk.

Because he was eighty percent certain that the cultivation method the young man had obtained was far from ordinary.

Observing how that young man had just behaved, it was clear that the upper limit of this cultivation method definitely reached the Deity Transformation Realm.

Cheney was currently cultivating the [Great Flame Red Fire True Scripture], a method that would allow him to cultivate up to the later stages of the Nascent Soul.

This was already one of the most powerful cultivation methods of the Purple Melody True Sect, and even among the Four Nations, it was one of the strongest.

Even so, this true scripture could only take him up to the later stages of the Nascent Soul.

In this world of reincarnation, Cheney naturally could not be satisfied with just reaching the Nascent Soul stage.

So if this opportunity had presented itself, then he could not let it pass.

As for causal entanglements, Cheney could only try to avoid them from the beginning.

Because he did not plan to seize it by force; he intended to trade for this opportunity.

After all, if it really was just a cultivation method, then both individuals could cultivate it at the same time.

In the Cultivation Realm, there’s no rule that says Immortal Techniques cannot be cultivated simultaneously.

But if this young man with the Thunder Spiritual Root refuses to cooperate, then there would be no other choice but to forcibly search his soul.

After countless simulations, Cheney never considered himself a good person.

Or rather, it seemed that from some point on, Cheney had become somewhat indifferent towards human life.

……

At the gates of the Purple Melody True Sect.

“You all go ahead and bring the new disciples into the Sect; Octavius Yarrow, you stay behind.”

Cheney, looking toward the mountain gate, spoke softly.

“Right, Sect Leader, we’ll head off first.”

When the two Golden Core True Immortals and the other new disciples left, only Cheney and Octavius remained.

At that moment, Octavius’s gaze towards Cheney was filled with respect, but also curiosity.

He now knew Cheney’s identity; the Sect Leader of Purple Melody True Sect, a Great Cultivator with Golden Core Great Perfection.

And the foremost person beneath the supreme Elders of the Purple Melody True Sect!

“Did you obtain a cultivation method during your trial?”

Cheney spoke softly, getting straight to the point.

But this statement struck Octavius like a thunderclap.

His complexion first underwent a drastic change, then he grew despondent, finally revealing a bitter smile.

Because he knew all too well there was no need to wonder how this great figure knew he had acquired an Immortal Technique.

In front of a Golden Core Great Perfection True Immortal, there was no chance he could escape.

The once eagerly anticipated rise to greatness now seemed like a mere joke.

“What are you thinking about?”

Cheney asked with a smile.

This kid is quite interesting; that certainly must have given him a fright.
