“Although the power of heaven and earth exists in many ces, even supreme saints are unable to


    wield it. It is only by entering the sacredke that it would be passible to train and be a supreme


    saint,” Fend exined. He then opened his mouth and devoured the strands of light. “The sacred


    lake is the sole ce in the entire Southsky region that contains the power of heaven and earth. It is


    jointly owned by the four major sects, including the Grandiuno Sect.”


    Fend’s narrative allowed Severin to grasp the uniqueness of the sacredke. Making a breakthrough


    to supreme saint necessitated an understanding of the power of heaven and earth, followed by


    condensing one’s power to produce the primal soul. The sacredke was shared among the four major


    sects and thus was not exclusively owned by the Grandiuno Sect. However, the Grandiuno Sect was


    the most dominant


    of the four.


    Severin took a deep breath after digesting the information. Just as he was about to respond, Fend


    added, “By the way, the four major sects tend to recruit disciples during the time that ess is granted


    to the sacredke. If you sessfully make a breakthrough to supreme saint, you might have the


    chance to awaken a spiritual vein or an exceptional martial soul. That would pave the way for you to


    join one of the


    four major sects.”


    This revtion shook Severin and he replied immediately, “Thank you for informing me of that.”


    Fend waved his hand and offered a word of caution, “Don’t thank me just yet. Your eptance


    would


    depend on your performance.”


    Severin nodded in agreement and understood the implications of the situation. Fend’s words came


    as


    a timely reminder to him. Though he and his group could continue to remain unaffiliated practitioners


    after making a breakthrough, resources were much harder toe by at thetter levels. Without the


    support of an established force, their progress would be stuck at a snail’s pace. If one of the four sects


    epted them as disciples and provided them with the necessary support, it would not be that difficult


    to gain some resources.


    More importantly, Severin wished to be a greater alchemist who could craft much higher–grade


    pills. Normal families could not possibly possess such pills, and only prominent sects had the capability


    of


    producing them.

    With that understanding, Severin exchanged nces with his group and nodded. Severin had decided


    to enter the Grandiuno Sect after he made a breakthrough at the sacredke.


    For the remainder of the journey, Severin and the group did not ask Fond any further questions and


    simply waited to reach their destination.


    Every half an hour, the airship made stops in different cities and took on new passengers–those were


    th victors of each city’s tournament. The number of people on the hundred–foot airship gradually


    numbered in the hundreds.


    The group finally reached Southsky’s sacredke in the evening. Fend used a que to activate a


    seal covering the sacredke before flying the group in. Before them was ake nestled within a


    mountain. Theke was several miles wide, and the sky above theke was veiled in white mist


    In that split second, an immensely powerful spiritual energy began enveloping Severin’s body. A deep


    breath rejuvenated him and left him feeling incredibly refreshed.
