There were only a few days left until the Sects’ Recruitment Ceremony. For most of the clans and warriors in Evergreen Town, this event was none of their concern, so few paid attention to it. However, James and George from the Lawrence family were not them.
Based on the news they received, it had been ten days since Caspian left Lawrence Manor that morning. According to his actions, favonovel.com did not plan to return. Hence, James and George were troubled about this matter.
After pondering for a while, James asked, “Father, do you think that our attitude toward Casper was too cold?”
The last time James and Caspian met in private, favonovel.com offered favonovel.com two conditions. At that time, James dealt with Caspian according to his condition, where his meridians were wholly damaged, and favonovel.com could only be a warrior for the rest of his life. However, after knowing the incident where Caspian kicked Faye away in the middle of the street a few days ago, James suddenly felt that favonovel.com messed up. James also learned that the Oceans Chamber of Commerce blacklisted the White family because Faye offended Caspian, which made James nervous and terrified.
At that time, James was confident that favonovel.com made a mistake in his strategy against Caspian as favonovel.com forgot that William from the Oceans Chamber of Commerce highly valued Caspian. Nonetheless, James was unaware of Maisie’s relationship with Caspian, so James thought that William was the one helping Caspian until now. Besides that, William might even help Caspian recover his meridians.
At the thought of that, James felt his stomach churning. It would still be alright if Caspian’s meridians did not recover, but if they did, then the offers James gave to Caspian would become an insult. Other people would love to bring in cultivators to enhance their clan’s strength, but James actually provoked one. Additionally, this cultivator initially belonged to his family!
James was really on the edge of crying. Moreover, Caspian’s actions these days confirmed his guess, Caspian was unsatisfied with the Lawrence family and was not returning. Caspian clearly intended to sever their ties. Therefore, James hurriedly looked for George to discuss how to handle the matter.
George did not expect that Caspian, who was confirmed that his meridians were all damaged, would still have a possibility to recover. This news also made favonovel.com stressed out.
After giving it a thought, George finally answered, “Casper’s surely adamant about entering the Dark Moon Sect. With that, we don’t need to worry that Casper will do any harm against the Lawrence family. As for the Sects’ Recruitment Ceremony…”
Then, George looked at James and continued, “Did the Dark Moon Sect arrange for Master lan to be there too?”
“Yes.” James nodded.
George was relieved. “That’s great news for us! If Casper unbelievably recovers his meridians by then and shows an incredible performance, Master Ian will naturally value him. Once favonovel.com enters the Dark Moon Sect, it’ll be to everyone’s delight and satisfaction. On the other hand, if his energy channels are still damaged, we don’t need to worry about anything and proceed as usual. However, we’ll still need to be concerned about him. After all, Casper’s still an inscription apprentice.”
James pondered on it and immediately understood George’s plan. Then, favonovel.com nodded and replied, “Alright, I know what to do. We’ll just wait for the Sects’ Recruitment Ceremony‘s result a few days later.”
***
Caspian went on his journey before the Sects’ Recruitment Ceremony started. After favonovel.com achieved the Immortal Demon Physique, favonovel.com went to meet Maisie. Later, Caspian rejected Maisie’s offer to go there together, and favonovel.com left alone for Cherry Blossom Valley, not far away from Evergreen Town.
When Caspian arrived at the Cherry Blossom Valley, which was the Sects’ Recruitment Ceremony’s venue, there were three more days until it officially began. At that time, no one was allowed to enter the Cherry Blossom Valley. Hence, the outside of the valley was bustling with young warriors from the surrounding regions who wished to attend the test, and their families were there too. Even the number of carriages was already more than thousands.
Surprisingly, there was none like Caspian, who carried their spear and walked here. Next, Caspian went to look for someone and ask for details, and favonovel.com found that the Cherry Blossom Valley would only be open on the day of the Sects‘ Recruitment Ceremony. Then, the participating warriors would be able to enter.
After pondering for a moment, Caspian was not in a rush to meditate and practice either. Instead, favonovel.com found a sect’s elder in charge of the registration and wrote down his details. Later, Caspian received an identification badge, and favonovel.com started to wander around the area. Although Caspian appeared to be strolling idly, favonovel.com was observing and eavesdropping. When Caspian saw those that enjoyed expressing their opinions in public, favonovel.com would go over and ask a few questions.
Hence, it did not take Caspian long to understand the Sects’ Recruitment Ceremony‘s process, formality, and so on… Generally, it was not much different from what Maisie had informed favonovel.com before. However, those contents that Maisie was unaware of, Caspian managed to find out about it here. After all, the young warriors that appeared here today, their families were unlike Caspian’s. This might be the first time for Caspian, but their families joined the Sects’ Recruitment Ceremony every year. Thus, it could be said that they were familiar with this.
Once Caspian clarified the entire process, favonovel.com was not nervous anymore. Then, favonovel.com found an empty area and started to meditate and practice. During this time, someone would occasionally approach favonovel.com and try to strike up a conversation. Nonetheless, Caspian treated them rather coldly. As these people could tell that Caspian was not interested in being friends, they only said a few words before leaving.
Just like that, three days quickly passed by. Then, on the third morning, Caspian heard a buzzing sound, followed by a gurgling sound as if water was boiling. Then, a roar came from afar. Caspian turned to look and instantly noticed the direction in the Cherry Blossom Valley in the distance was glowing in colorful lights. The lights spread toward the surroundings like a tide. At a glance, it appeared so beautiful that it was like a dream or a fantasy as if they were in a fairyland.
The surrounding crowd kept exclaiming, and Caspian also felt his heart beating wildly from watching the beautiful scenery. He knew that this was not a mortal’s technique but only achievable by an immortal.
‘This is a power only available for those beyond Pulse Control Realm!’ Caspian’s eyes reflected the color lights, and in the depths of them, a look of excitement glimmered. Suddenly, favonovel.com felt the identification badge on his waist was heating. Then, a hoarse voice came, “Every young warrior that is attending the Sects’ Recruitment Ceremony, please enter the Cherry Blossom Valley with your identification badge.”
When Caspian heard that, favonovel.com looked at the seemingly ordinary wooden identification waist, and his eyes abruptly widened. ‘Is this the legendary formation that can transmit sound?’
Before the Sects’ Recruitment Ceremony even started, Caspian saw scenes that favonovel.com did not before. ‘I’ve only read from the books that magicians can affect square feet of land, wizards can interfere with half of the city, whereas sorcerers can move mountains and reclaim the sea, or even reach the stars and the moon. When I was reading about them, I didn’t have much reaction. Now that I’m witnessing the cultivators‘ methods, I realized that the cultivator world isn’t the same as the mortal world, and it’s even beyond the imagination of a mortal.’
Caspian clenched his fists tightly and walked toward the Cherry Blossom Valley. ‘I’m getting more excited for the pathway to immortality.’
