Dyon shook his head and explained. “There’s no need to be confused. Isn’t it your family that said that your Peak Heaven technique couldn’t be used by anyone without your bloodline?”
“This…” The family head burst into a cold sweat because this wasn’t entirely the truth. He didn’t know whether he should tell Dyon the reality or not.
However, Dyon only chuckled. “I know that this isn’t the whole truth. The reality of the matter is that your Caedes family and anyone else can use these core teachings. It’s just that your family has the highest affinity for these techniques due to your special manifestation, the blood heart.”
Of course, Dyon didn’t magically come to know these things. He had his master with him right now who was originally from this quadrant, of course she would know these things.
“The truth is that the best candidates to become the next Master of Slaughter Peak come from your Caedes family. No other family can help this peak to reach its full potential.
“By that same token, only the Jafari family’s expert use of time and darkness will can fully realize the core teachings of Unseen Peak.
“The Caedes family of Slaughter Peak. The Jafari family of Unseen Peak. The Sanctus family of Holy Peak. The Stivus family of Blooming Peak. The Lapsu family of Gliding Peak. This was the original structure of the sub peaks.
“However, during the war, three of these five powerful families were completely eradicated while your Caedes and Jafari families were terribly crippled. In fact, I’m impressed that you’ve somehow managed to become a third-grade celestial. It’s clear that your family still has some remaining heritage hidden that helped you along.”
“If this is the role you’ve chosen for me, I humbly accept.” The Caedes family head lowered his head in a deep bow.
Dyon nodded. “Don’t misunderstand. I’m not choosing you to be master of Slaughter Peak. However, I do hope that one day one of your descendants will qualify. That said, you are qualified to become an outer elder of Slaughter Peak. Normally, you would be too weak, but advancement in the sub peaks is also heavily reliant of affinity and master of their core teachings.
“Disciples won’t be allowed to learn core teachings until they become core disciples, but you’ve clearly skipped this step. So, you’ll be granted a position as outer elder.”
The family head nodded, not showing a hint of dissatisfaction. It was clear he felt that this was more than he deserved.
“For the sub peaks,” Dyon continued, “Working disciple elders will receive 5 top-grade celestial condensing pills and 5 saint stones a month plus one grandmaster weapon. In addition, you’ll receive 10 hours of mediation in the Mystical World per month.”
The hearts of the former core elders warmed. Ten hours of mediation in the Mystical World may seem like nothing on the surface, but the reality was that to them, elders who were already nearing the end of their lives, this was more valuable than any of the other treasures combined.
The life energy in the Mystical World so dense that it could even heal the lands outside of it with just the energy that happened to leak out. If they mediated within for a few hours a month, it could extend their lives by precious decades. The gift of life was far more than they could have wished for.
The four elders fell to their knees, tears in their eyes. Others didn’t understand the value of the gift Dyon was giving them, but they did.
Dyon waved his hands, sending out and invisible wind will to help them up. “There’s no need to kneel to me. As long as you treat me well, I will treat you well.”
The four elders still profusely thanked Dyon be re-entering the crowd. They couldn’t help but wonder how their dead friend would have reacted to this news.
“You elders will also receive free reign of common level techniques and the right to rent three earth grade techniques at a time.
“Outer elders of the sub peaks will receive one 4th stage grandmaster weapon. In addition, they’ll receive 5 saint stones, but 10 top-grade celestial condensing pills a month. Elders of this rank will have the ability to browse core teachings, however this will be limited to the heaven grade core teachings. In addition, this browsing is limited to a three-day period per month, occurring within Soul Rending Peak. This is a temporary measure for now until the appropriate hierarchy is formed.”
The crowd trembled. What did Dyon mean “limited to the heaven grade core teachings”? Could it be that those core teachings included divine grade techniques?! Did that mean if they became inner elders they could practice techniques of that legendary grade?!
Dyon smiled. “The potential of our peaks is far beyond your imagination. We have a mighty history that I plan to rebuild. Others may believe that the soul path is weak, but we’ll show them the truth. There’ll come a day when Soul Rend Quadrant will become synonymous with the rulers of the cosmos, and you all here, along with me, are the foundations of this future.
“As long as you all work hard and display your loyalty, I can hand the world to you. I promise that there is no one who can bring you to greater height.
“Soul Rend Quadrant will rise again.”
