Ascension of the Immortal Asura

Chapter 926 Sect Leader Furi



John cocked his head to the side, not accepting the offer given to him right away. He had no idea what a Tier One Genius meant, and no idea what the requirements to obtain a Holy Transcendence Pill were.

He was sure the man’s offer was not a terrible one, but wanted to know exactly what he was getting into before accepting.

“You don’t have to accept my offer right away,” the man said to John, noticing his hesitation. “Speak to my son about what this offer will entail, and then provide your answer when you are ready. Oh, and so that you can address me properly, my name is Furi, so you can call me Sect Leader Furi, or just Furi, it does not matter to me.”

With that, he turned around, moving towards one of the rooms contained within the luxurious ship. John gave Luri a sideways glance.

‘Furi!?’ his gaze seemed to say loudly. Furi, Luri, Suri. It seems their fathers creativity was even worse than they had initially stated. Luri shrugged at John’s gaze, his face slightly reddened from obvious embarrassment.

“Wait,” John called out, looking back at Furi.

“Yes?” Furi stopped, turning around to meet John’s eyes.

“How did you know I was not from this world?” John asked curiously. Furi had discovered the truth almost immediately, and John needed to know if there was a way around being discovered by others, as it surely would bring nothing but headaches in the future.

“The composition of your Qi,” Furi replied evenly. “The Qi you used to cultivate with on your homeworld is slightly different from the Qi of this world. That difference is unmistakable if you know what you are looking for.” .

John frowned, but quickly understood how he had been detected so quickly. It was like he was naturally giving off a beacon of energy, one screaming that he was from a foreign place.

“You don’t have to concern yourself with this issue,” Furi said, turning around and walking to his room. “This world’s Qi will fully replace all the Qi in your body before long. Once that happens, no one will be able to tell you are from another world.”

The door closed behind Furi, leaving the three youths in the common area of the ship. John turned his gaze to the youths, no longer concerned about what he had just brought up with Furi, as it would resolve itself before long.

He noticed Luri and Suri standing next to each other, looks of eagerness on their faces. They rushed up to John after their father closed the door, nearly crashing into him from their excitement.

“A Tier One Genius!” Luri exclaimed, “Father also believes you can become one! How amazing!”

“Our sect has never had a Tier Two Genius, let alone a Tier One Genius,” Suri added, her voice soft yet also bubbly with awe and excitement. “For father to request such a thing from you, he must believe there is a chance.”

“Of course, there’s a chance,” Luri said confidently. “You saw him fight just as I did. He slew five cultivators two or three minor realms above his own cultivation. Surely that puts him at the level of a Tier One Genius, if not higher!”

“Higher!” Suri exclaimed with disbelief, as if the thought never occurred to her. “But there’s no tier higher than Tier One.”

“Yes, I know,” Luri said, slightly exasperated with his sister’s naivety. “I mean he might be more talented than the Tier One Geniuses.”

“Oh,” Suri nodded her head, understanding her brother’s meaning. She cast a sideways glance at John once more, her eyes filled with wondrous awe.

John scratched the side of his head, standing there silently as the two bubbled over him and his talent.

“What exactly is a Tier One Genius?” John asked.

Luri gave him a glance as if John was an idiot, then quickly reddened with embarrassment. Clearly he had forgotten that John was not of this world, and John couldn’t blame him really. It was most definitely something that did not happen often, even for a stronger world like this. Otherwise, the idea would have been considered by the youths previously if it were a common occurrence.

“Right, right. We have a lot of explaining to do,” Luri said, pulling on John’s arm towards an area that contained several comfortable looking sofas. The three each sat on a separate sofa, while Kirii materialized once more, lying on the ground next to Suri.

Suri giggled with happiness at Kirii’s arrival, and started to pet his head with a smile on his face. John eyed the two for a moment, noticing just how close they had gotten in such a short span. He smiled for a moment, as he could tell Kirii was very happy with this situation as well. With how cramped Kirii had been feeling as of late, this was no doubt a good thing for his mood and happiness.

“I already explained some of this world’s power structure to you,” Luri said, getting John’s attention. “But now that I know you’re not of this world, I guess I left a lot out that I assumed was common sense. So I’ll start from the beginning, and explain in detail.”

John nodded his head thankfully and leaned back on the sofa, ready to listen to a long winded explanation of the details of this world. His gaze flickered for a moment as he felt the material of the sofa, which seemed to embrace him like a loving mother.

‘Good quality stuff!’ he thought, welcoming the comfortable embrace of the high quality chair.

Without a moment’s hesitation, Luri started his long detailing of the world, known as the Nine-Dao World due to the nine hegemon powers that dominated the world, three belonging to each of the dominant races of the world; the human race, the devil race, and the beast race.

“The nine hegemons are known as the Nine Dao Powers, or Tier One Powers,” Luri continued his explanation, while John listened intently. “For our human race, the three hegemons are the Sword Dao Sect, the Mage Dao Sect, and the Yang Dao Sect. The Sword Dao Sect is the strongest of the three hegemon sects, while the Mage Dao Sect and Yang Dao Sect occupy second and third. Their peak cultivators are relatively even, so the difference is decided by comparing the genius of each sect.”

“I see,” John nodded, “and the Sword Dao Sect are number one permanently?”

“Yes,” Luri nodded his head. “Not only is their patriarch the strongest human cultivator in this world, but the geniuses they produce always claim first place in the annual Dao Tournaments. They are without question the number one human power in this world.”
