Chapter 3840 Cream Of The Crop
Besides, Gloria’s position within Void Sect has slowly risen, and she has gotten into Primo’s good graces. It wouldn’t make sense for her to go around recklessly devouring the powers of others because that’s unnecessary. Rumor has it that Heptino has the ability to examine spiritual ley lines and provide the best spiritual ley lines as cultivation resources.
There’s no need for him to reject what is near at hand to seek something that is far away. The same logic applies to Xylas and the few elite fighters from the Glorian Order. With Gloria’s support, they don’t have to devour other cultivators’ powers to boost their cultivation level.
“As you wish, Lord Garrison. I’ll lead the way,” said Cheriette, not daring to probe further. The pair set off immediately, making their way swiftly toward the headquarters of Bluesky Sect.
At the same time, the area was abuzz as two pieces of news circulated among the various sects. The first was that the Dark Demon had appeared in Yannopolis, committed a widespread massacre, and nearly wiped out the entire city.
The second was that no one had heard from Eclipse Academy’s vice-chancellor and dozens of its elites for some time. The rumor was that they were dead at the hands of a powerful fighter.
On top of that, the powerful forces who had tried searching for the missing people had been slaughtered, including those from the notorious Crimson Shadow Pavilion.
That news created an even greater stir, and many sects wondered whether some mighty being had returned.
The fact that a dragon ley line had appeared on Tragora Mountain also further fuelled speculations that it had most likely attracted the attention of powerful fighters.
Over at the headquarters of Void Sect, Primo was stunned when he got wind of those updates.
He inhaled sharply, then said, “Eclipse Academy belongs to the top sect in this area. Who would be crazy enough to attack them?”
Santino said sadly, “What’s more, Mr. Lohse possesses superior strength. He had dozens of elites from the academy with him, yet they were all killed. One can only imagine how powerful the attacker had to be to do that.”
“With Yunus’ cultivation level, not many people could stop him if he decided to make a run for it,” Gloria added.
At her words, everyone fell silent again.
Some of them even looked terrified.
As Gloria pointed out, Yunos was a force to be reckoned with. Had he been determined to escape, the perpetrators who wanted to stop him would have had to push their cultivation level to its breaking point to succeed.
Only that would be enough to eliminate Yunos and the others quietly without alerting anyone, so much so that there were still no traces of them until now.
“Have you thought that perhaps that person could very well be the mysterious elite who appeared during the conflict at Tragora Mountain?” Primo asked softly.
Suddenly, everyone felt as though their eyes had been opened.
Gloria immediately recalled how that mysterious person had used up all the energy of a large dragon ley line in just one night. That’s something only a powerful elite can do.
“Issue an order that all the Void Sect apprentices must be on high alert at all times. If there are any unusual occurrences, they are to sound the alarm at once,” Primo commanded in a deep voice.
In the end, Void Sect has also gotten involved in the battle for dragon ley lines. Our initial intention may be to look for clues related to the killings of Yunus and the elites from Eclipse Academy, but what if that makes us the target of that mysterious elite? That’d prove disastrous for us. However, there’s a high chance that’ll happen.
“I’m actually rather interested in the Dark Demon. Gloria, don’t you think his cultivation technique is somewhat similar to yours?” Primo asked suddenly.
Gloria was momentarily stunned. Then, she answered frankly, “There are some similarities indeed. However, absorbing powers is ultimately disadvantageous, and the side effects are too severe.”
Despite the sudden change of subject, Gloria’s thoughts still dwelled on the super-powerful fighter.
Despite feeling shocked, she also felt a sense of anticipation. Only a person with such a cultivation level would be worthy of becoming Kenfort’s cream of the crop!
