The Story Never Ends

Later that night,

Davion, as yesterday, came infront of the pool. "I just need a few experience points to level up. I don\'t know what these creatures are. But I will regard them as a devil for now."

He took out a sword from his ring and dived deep into the pool. He went in the same direction where he battled yesterday.

"I killed a lot of them here. So, I might be able to go deeper today."

He again met with some weak devils like yesterday. But with a single slash of his sword, they would be cut in half and swept away. He started going deeper into the pool.

When he was about to reach 100 feet below, he saw several black giant snakes with dark spikes on their backs swimming towards him. When they came near to him, they immediately pounced upon him.

Before one of them could get near, Davion immediately used some part of his spiritual energy and swept his sword straight to it. Like those small devils before, it didn\'t cut into half and died. But only a large gash was made and blood splattered out.

After getting injured, it wanted to flee. But how could it be the match for Davion who got more serious? He used more spiritual energy this time and came straight to the head of the snake and pierced it with his sword. Making sure it didn\'t have time to react, he took out the sword from its head and cut the whole snake in two halves.

Black blood splattered all over the pool. Although this process looked long, it only took a couple of seconds. Seeing this, the rest of the giant snakes fled hurriedly, no longer daring to approach Davion.

But how could he let those experience points get away?

The next morning, Davion came out of his cave as usual and was on his way towards the lecture hall.

"Those snakes were a little troublesome. But I managed to kill a lot of them. I also leveled up to 16. Not only that but one-fourth of the experience bar is already filled. I got a good harvest. But there are many things that I couldn\'t understand."

"These snakes were different from the weak devils that I used to kill. Those devils were made up of energy, while these snakes were made from blood and flesh. Not only that, but they had minds of their own and were intelligent. It looks like these snakes got contaminated by the negative energy in the bottom of the pool. What lies in the bottom of the pool?"

While he was thinking he saw Isla already waiting outside of the lecture hall. The pill given by the Sect Master has managed to cure her face and injury. But she still looked pale.

"Senior Sister, are you ok?"

"Yes, thanks to Sect Master. I still need a week\'s rest, if I want to recover completely." Isla replied.

"Junior brother, congratulations. It looks like you have won the favor of Sect Master yesterday. He asked you to stay with him after the morning lecture." She smiled.

"Oh! How could I forget about that? Haha.." Davion laughed.

"Senior Sister, do you have the map of Dark Moon City? I am getting a little monotonous in the sect. I want some fresh air outside."

"I forgot that you are new to the sect. You haven\'t even gone outside once. Let me give you the map of both Dark Moon City and Lilium City which are near to the sect." Isla took out two maps from her space ring and passed it to Davion.

Davion took it and thanked her.

While they were talking, they didn\'t notice that Hendrix was also listening to their conversation from the corner.

"It looks like that brat wants to leave the sect. This might be the only good opportunity to strike him." Hendrix had a sinister smile on his face.

So, he didn\'t attend the Lecture and immediately went out of the sect.

A while later, in the Lecture Hall,

All the disciples were sitting on their mats cross-legged. Thaddeus looked at everyone while sitting in the front of the hall. He looked at a certain corner and saw that the mat was empty. Seeing this he was very disappointed.

"Hendrix didn\'t come today. I had thought that he would ask for forgiveness. Forget it, I don\'t want to think about him anymore."

Same as usual, the lecture continued and everyone meditated as usual. When the time was over and everyone turned to leave, Thaddeus eyed Davion and said, "You will stay, Davion. Others can disperse."

Everyone bowed and left. Only Davion was sitting on a mat. Then he said to Davion, "Follow me to my cave. I have something to show you."

Davion nodded his head followed behind the Sect Master.

Inside the Sect Master\'s Hall,

Thaddeus sternly said, "I will show you some things and teach you about them. But you should promise me that you won\'t leak it."

Davion bowed and replied, "Sect Master, I promise."

Then he saw that the Sect Master went to the corner of his cave and put his hands on the wall.. The wall came infront and a secret passageway was seen in the back which led to the bottom of the cave.
