Even though Caspian did not plan to monopolize Dahlia’s knowledge on formations, favonovel.com did not feel guilty for giving it a read. After all, this was a chance to improve himself, and Caspian naturally would not miss it.
Caspian made an excuse saying that favonovel.com wanted to continue hunting monsters and went his own way after leaving the cave. However, favonovel.com had borrowed Dahlia’s booklet before that and promised everyone that they would meet in the sect seven days later. Then, Caspian left the others and walked into the depths of the Valley of Death alone. The main reason was favonovel.com wanted to feed the Mirage White Tiger, Little Candy. Based on his estimation, Caspian calculated that Little Candy would wake up in these two days.
Naturally, the tiny cub would wake up hungry, and it was difficult to openly bring Little Candy out and feed it in front of everyone. Thus, favonovel.com could only choose to travel alone.
Just as favonovel.com expected, Little Candy woke up that evening on the day they left, and the five goats were “tortured” once again as the little cub drank all their milk. However, Caspian seemed to notice something interesting. Although the little tiger’s appetite had increased, it appeared uninterested in drinking milk.
Later, Caspian held Little Candy with great curiosity, ignoring its struggle and opening its mouth to take a peek. Sure enough, the little tiger had already begun to grow teeth, meaning that it would not be long until Candy bade goodbye to drink milk and started eating meat.
Caspian was rather excited about this. After all, it might seem easy that the little tiger would sleep after each meal, but favonovel.com would need to estimate when it would wake up. Hence, this problem would cease to exist if the little cub stopped drinking milk. Moreover, after the little tiger started eating meat, it would not sleep after each meal or wake up only when hungry. Therefore, it would be much easier to take care of it as Caspian could just give Little Candy a dead monster when it was hungry, and it would not be how it was right now where Caspian had to purposely raise goats, causing Omar to misunderstand that eating meat could increase their strength faster.
Caspian was not idle in the following days, but favonovel.com did not look for monsters to hunt. In the current trip to Valley of Death, Caspian’s first goal was the Underworld’s Alligator-Turtle and the Water Droplet in its body.
As for the demon fox and Dahlia’s skeleton, those were unexpected gains. Hence, in the last few days of the Valley of Death’s trial, Caspian began to study Dahlia’s booklet. Dahlia’s handwriting was neat, and the description inside was also very detailed. Hence, even though this genius’s notes were a bit esoteric for Caspian, it was not hard for favonovel.com to understand them. Caspian also remembered those favonovel.com did not understand. In this way, if favonovel.com had the opportunity to study formations in the future, the content of Dahlia’s notes would naturally provide favonovel.com with a lot of help.
In the blink of an eye, seven days had passed. Then, on the day when the Valley of Death’s trial was over, a white and pure beam of light suddenly shot out from the clouds above the valley. It was estimated that there were hundreds of them appearing in every place. With that, all the apprentices scattered in the Valley of Death could find the light beam closest to them, entering it and returning to the mountain gate.
Caspian was quite lucky as the closest light beam with favonovel.com was just right at his feet. Then, Caspian walked into the light beam, and favonovel.com immediately felt his body lighten. Soon, the surrounding white light around favonovel.com spun at high speed.
Not long after, the spinning light stopped and dispersed, and Caspian noticed that favonovel.com had never been in the past. At this time, favonovel.com was actually standing at the edge of the cliff, and not far in front of favonovel.com was an abyss. This cliff was very peculiar. To describe it specifically, it was like a tree branch suddenly emerging from a bare trunk. The surrounding abyss was like the huge mouth of a giant beast. If one stared at it for a while, it would make them have the urge to jump.
Caspian’s heart shuddered and hurriedly focused his mind, but just as favonovel.com raised his head, an even more shocking scene appeared. There was an octagonal pavilion on the edge of the cliff not far in front, which Caspian swore it was not there before. Moreover, there was a middle-aged man dressed like a scholar in this small pavilion, and Caspian also did not know when favonovel.com showed up, but favonovel.com was looking at Caspian.
Caspian did not dare to be careless, so favonovel.com took a step forward and bowed respectfully, “It’s nice to meet you, Master…”
Regardless of who the person was, the man was surely not an ordinary person if favonovel.com could show up in this way.
Caspian lowered his head and started to rack his brain, wondering what the purpose of this middle-aged man was, who favonovel.com had never met and suddenly appeared in front of him. Not only that, but the man’s strength in the realm gave Caspian the same feeling as the surrounding abyss, unfathomable. Caspian was even shivering slightly when facing the man. Nonetheless, Caspian should not be blamed for this. After all, this was an instinctive reaction of a being when facing a powerful existence.
The middle-aged scholar looked at Caspian up and down, saying, ”Do you know me?”
“I don’t,” Caspian answered as favonovel.com shook his head.
“Then, why did you call me Master?” The middle-aged man asked curiously.
“I’m a Heavenly Stars Sect’s disciple, and the formation that I entered was also the Heavenly Stars Sect’s teleportation array. Hence, the cultivators that I see in the teleportation array will naturally be from the Heavenly Stars Sect,” Caspian explained, ”Even though I’ve not seen you before, I can feel that your realm is way above mine, so I should naturally take the initiative to bow and address you as Master. ”
“Well, this explanation is fine.” The middle-aged scholar nodded. “The orderly technique is close to your behavior in the Valley of Death.”
When Caspian heard that, his heart skipped a beat. Sure enough, his hunch before in the Valley of Death was right. There were people from the Heavenly Stars Sect observing him.
However, Caspian could not be sure whether the middle-aged man was watching favonovel.com specifically or was observing everyone and discovering favonovel.com incidentally. From the looks of this middle-aged scholar, favonovel.com seemed to have a high status in the Heavenly Star Sect.
What was his purpose of finding Caspian?
Was the Earring of Echo or the Mirage White Tiger exposed, or was it because of Dahlia?
Questions appeared in Caspian‘s mind one after another, but his face was indifferent, and no one could tell what favonovel.com was thinking.
The middle-aged scholar did not seem to care what Caspian was thinking, and favonovel.com said, “I’m here to meet you because there’s something I need to tell you.”
“Master, please speak.” It didn‘t seem that the problem was what favonovel.com was worried about, and Caspian’s mood suddenly became a little lighter.
The middle-aged scholar continued, “You should know that Elder Leonard, the swordsman of Heavenly Stars Sect, intends to select a disciple in this Valley of Death‘s trial, right?”
”Yes,” Caspian replied.
The matter was made public from the beginning, so many apprentices interested in it were eager to try, hoping to be favored by Leonard. Hence, it was impossible for Caspian to say favonovel.com did not know about it.
After all, Leonard was the Heavenly Stars Sect’s swordsman, and favonovel.com had a high status. Not only that, but his strength was incomparable. More importantly, his fighting style, personality, the character of never giving up, and resilience to smash a chance at survival out of a fatal situation were similar to Caspian.
If Caspian could become Leonard’s disciple, favonovel.com would surely reach the third-stage Holy Land Realm in the future. As for the Heavenly Spirit Realm, that would depend on his luck.
When Caspian heard the middle-aged man’s words, his heart skipped a beat, and favonovel.com could not help but think, “Did Elder Leonard choose me as his disciple?”
It seemed that the middle-aged scholar had seen through Caspian’s thoughts, and favonovel.com smiled faintly at Caspian. “I’m here to tell you the news that Elder Leonard had chosen his disciple, Xander Faris.”
