Chapter 606: Small Cultivator in a Large Sect

All the cultivators on the teleportation pad stared at Hui in open amazement. A few exchanged glances. One or two stepped forward, adjusting their robes with self-importance.

Tian Honghua looked at the shattered crystal in her hand. This orb measures ones karma with cultivation and Eight Tiers Palaces techniques. No matter how high this child cultivated in the other sect not that it appears to be high, butregardless of his cultivation, it shouldnt influence the light this crystal generates. This childs potential to say he has the potential to become the Sect Leader of Eight Tiers Palace isnt an exaggeration! No thats aiming too low. Immortality isnt out of his reach. Even, perhaps, the Heavenly Emperor

Er, I wont have to pay for that, will I?

Pay? A talent like yours? Tian Honghua murmured, startled out of her thoughts. The urge to cry welled up again, but for an entirely different reason than when Gu Liyuan died. Rather than worry about paying for the crystal, wont the Tier Masters be outdoing one another to claim this child as a disciple?

Small cultivator doesnt have any spirit stones, the child, Gui Hui, said nervously.

Tian Honghua stared at him. What happened to this child that hes so worried about spirit stones, even in this situation? Is All-Heavens Sect in financial trouble?

From the massive tower of Eight Tiers Palace overhead, brilliant beams of sword light shot down toward them. In front of her, Gui Hui huddled, putting his hands over his head. He trembled bodily, shaking like a leaf.New novel chapters are published on

She nudged him. Stand up straight. Here they come. Why am I reassuring the hostage?

Then again, when the hostage has this much talent I think hes going to become a true disciple immediately. Forget about being treated as a hostage, hell probably end up as a Tier Masters beloved disciple and outrank me! After all, talent like this rarely shows up, even in a century no, a millennia! Its likely theyll treat him well and try to win him over to become a true Eight Tiers Palace cultivator, not handle him as a hostage. I should reassure him now, to get some good points with whatever Tier Master takes him on as a disciple!

Horrified, Hui stared at the sword lights hurtling down. Should I play dead? No, no, I cant! Er, but, those cultivators all greatly outrank my true cultivation! Did my plan go too well, somehow? Oh no, oh no. Quickly, quickly. Lets make sure my cultivation is properly hidden!

Hui checked his body. Good, good. The phoenix flame has completely rejuvenated me. I am as truly ten years old as its possible to be, as a fully grown adult. As for my cultivation

Hui quickly touched his life qi with his phoenix flame, converting it, then sent the phoenix flame to his souls cultivation, leaving only ordinary qi in his bodys cultivation. On top of suppressing his cultivation, he quickly checked over his entire qi system. Yes, yes hmm, good! The phoenix flame also altered my bodys qi structure to be that of a low-realm cultivator, in keeping with my apparent bodily age. Good, good. It will take a few second to convert it back to my true cultivation, but thats fine. I can play dead, then use my playing-dead timeframe to switch my cultivation back to seventh stage using life qi, phoenix flame, or whatever I happen to have on hand.

Excuse me, Elder Brother, but are you a high-tier gacha game character? Hui wondered, barely resisting the urge to quirk a brow questioningly. He pressed his lips together, suppressing a retort. What a mobile-game-character-like existence! I havent seen anyone quite like him since Ive arrived. Honestly, Elder Brother, Im amazed! I bask in your overwrought character design! What do you even use those swords for? Its not like you have twenty-some hands!

A man with rainbow-colored hair and tie-dyed fingernails, a wild looking woman with tangled hair, riding a giant cat, and a woman wearing black and red with sinister eyes and long, dark-red nails, all joined the other cultivators on the teleportation pad.

Hmm, a pill cultivator, a beast cultivator, and a demonic cultivator? Well, I suppose the Eastern Alliance did combine all the local cultivator sects into one giant conglomerate sect, right? And because of that, they allowed demonic cultivators to be foundational members of their sect. The beauty cultivator and her poison and hidden weapon tier is already pretty demonic, so its not like I didnt know, but still.

One, two six, seven. All but one of the Tier Masters, Hui thought. He cowered, not really sure what to make of it. What summoned them, the light from that crystal I touched? Er, sorry, Elder Martial Siblings, but Im a seventh stage cultivator masquerading as a child, not an actual child disciple. Im quite happy to learn more about Eight Tiers Palace and the tiers techniquesafter all, thats why Im herebut at the end of the day, Im still a hostage. When they discover my identity, will they still be so excited about taking me as a disciple?

Er, my identity as a hostage, that is. I dont think any of them are going to discover my true identity right now.

So, this is the one who broke the crystal? He doesnt look like much, the demonic cultivator murmured, looking down on Hui from behind her long, dark eyelashes.

Eighth didnt come? the burly man asked, pursing his lips in disapproval.

The Palace Master is still in secluded training, the pill cultivator responded flatly.

Huh. The way he said that sounds like theyve had this conversation a thousand times. Though, actually this sounds almost like when I joined Starbound Sect, and they were wondering what had happened to Weiheng Wu, my Master! Does every sect have a distant expert who dislikes human contact?

not that I expect such a miraculous event to happen a second time. In any case, Master didnt teach me much, so its not as if I want another experience like that. This time, I want to get taught techniques! I want to learn!

Besides, Master wasnt in secluded cultivation. Master was just being antisocial.

Hui peered over the gathered cultivators. Okay. Of all the cultivators which one should I learn from?
