The Story Never Ends

Two days passed by,

The day of the Conference was finally here. Davion was making some preparations in his cave before leaving. They had to go to Lilium City which was near the sect. Other sects which were far away might have already reached there.

Today is the most important day for each and every sect in the outer region. Everyone will try to get higher rankings so that they can get more resources. If they get lower rankings, then they have to give away their resources to the higher ones. So, by the next conference, there will be a certain gap between these lower and higher-ranking sects.

This was the same for the Bone and Devil Sect. When they came last in every Conference, they slowly lost resources day by day. As a result, the gap between them and the higher-ranking ones got very big. Not only that, they became very weak to even try to challenge their position. Now they don't have anything remaining except the sect's ground which was not even safe anymore.

Making sure everything was ready, Davion left his cave. But before leaving, he looked at it for the last time with melancholy. Even though it has just been two months, it felt like a long time ago. With the interaction with the sect master these two days, he got some hints from him.

"The Sect Master is trying to send me far away from here by giving me a task. Even though I haven't opened up the ring, I could make some guesses." Davion thought.

"I was planning to leave this sect from the start. But this task makes it much easier, I guess."

"During this month, I finished reading almost all the books in the library. Not only that, I have been brushing experience points from the pool at night. Yesterday, the Sect Master finally finished teaching me about the Devil Language."

"Now, there is only one thing remaining for me to do here before leaving."

Davion came infront of the Cultivation Pool with a serious face.

"I have been killing those devils every day. Nearly all of them are killed. Today is the day when I see what's at the bottom of it."

He immediately dived into the pool. This time he went 200 feet deep without anyone interrupting him. When he reached there, he could finally see some devils. Some looked like the ones Thaddeus summoned the other day.

He didn't care about them and started going deeper to the pool.

When he reached near these devils, black energy started coming out from his body. The water 5 meters around him all turned black. When these devils touched the black water, they all started corroding and finally turned into dust.

If Thaddeus was here, his eyes would surely pop out. Because this spell was none other than the 'Dark Domain' inside the secret arts hall. But it should not be so powerful. The only thing Dark Domain could do was create a dark field around the user. This darkfield would take away the opponent's vision and the spells which depend on energies except Dark energy would weaken greatly.

If you wanted to make your darkfield corrosive like Davion, then you need to use at least half of your Qi. That's the reason why nobody wanted to learn this art.

But this is not a problem for Davion, whose spiritual energy always becomes stronger every time he levels up. So, even the normal field released by him becomes so corrosive. Because the quality of his energy is higher.

After leveling up, his body has also become stronger. So, now he could easily handle the pressure. In this way, Davion easily came to the bottom of the pool.

He stood on the ground and looked around him. There were only big rocks and strange plants around him. After making sure there were no devils here, he stopped the Dark Domain. He then used his Mind-Eye and found where the breath came from. He swam in that direction and found a strange altar over there. Above the altar was a huge skull that looked different from the human's skull. It had two horns but one was broken. Not only that, the skull was cracked in the middle. And in the same cracked place, a huge sword was inserted. There were strange symbols on that sword and that sword produced strong dark energy.

"Eh, these are the devil symbols." Since the sword was inserted into the skull and only the remaining half of it was seen, Davion could only understand what the remaining symbols meant.

"Suppress" He read it out.

"It looks like someone is suppressed down here by the sword. The disgusting devil's breath is coming from it. This breath is trying to pollute my mind. So, it might be the skull of a devil. Not only that, this sword produces strong dark energy.. It looks like the dark energy in the cultivation pool comes from it."
