Glancing at the expensive techniques, artifact and physique, Wenbo though of his pitiful fate points and shook his head and asked, " System aren't they any cheaper ones?, qi techniques covering defense and movement?"
The system briefly closed and open, the list now changed to cheap qi techniques covering defense and movement.

" Though they're cheap, they're still..." Wenbo words trailed off as he stared at the price of the qi techniques and stared at his pitiful fate points and sighed, " Being a villain really isn't good ".
" Master " Yunxi called out as she approached Wenbo.
" Are you through?, how's the cave" Wenbo asked.
" Hmm, I have checked my cave master, it's good" Yunxi said.
" Hmm?" Wenbo raised an eyebrow in confusion as he flicked his hand producing a jade stone which glowed, infusing his true qi eight words were transferred directly to his mind:
' All elders come immediately to the spiritual hall '.
Wenbo frowned slightly.
" Master is there anything wrong ?" Yunxi asked nervously, the Immortal hadn't said a word since which had scared her.
" Nothing" Wenbo said as he shook his head. gritting his teeth he still purchased some of the qi techniques-----Buddha's bell and shadow step mirage.
" Here " Wenbo said as he tossed two jade stones to Yunxi, " I expect you to enter the initial stage by the time I'm back"
Before Yunxi could react, Wenbo had already used Void step, disappearing.
' He isn't like what father said ' Yunxi thought as she stared at the jade stone, closing her eyes she infused her spiritual qi on the jade stone.
Influx of knowledge surged towards her brain, causing Yunxi to snap her eyes open with shock.
"This....!" Yunxi gasped as she stared at the jade stone, " An earthly-mid and low grade qi techniques?!"
Qi techniques were mainly divided into 7 grade; Mortal grade, yellow grade, profound grade, earthly grade, heavenly grade, saint grade and divine grade, each divided into low, mid and high.
Yunxi had only been able to practice yellow-high grade techniques, even her father the patriarch of the Wu family practice a profound-low grade qi technique.
" What am I thinking, for an Immortal this techniques must not cost much " Yunxi said as she sat on the floor in a lotus position, " I shouldn't delve much in it but try my best to meet his expectations ".
Yunxi closed her eyes and soon the spiritual qi from heaven and earth soon rushed towards her.
For one to fully master a technique he must pass through five stages, initial, apprentice, mastery, profound and perfection.
The higher the grade of a technique the harder it is for one to master it, achieving initial level in a short while is hard, but Yunxi still want to try.
...
Spiritual hall.
The spiritual hall, made specifically for the gathering of the elders and sect leaders in decision of the cloud blossom sect, it was located on the summit of a peak; informally known as the tenth peak.
" Second elder "
Two disciples stationed at the spiritual hall cupped their hands in salute as they watched the approaching figure of Wenbo.
" Hmm " Wenbo curtly nod as he went inside.
" Is that the immortal?"
" I heard he killed an immortal the day he ascended "
The two disciples conversed as they stared at the receding figure of Wenbo with admiration.
....
The spiritual hall, being a place for the gathering of important figures for the cloud blossom sect was naturally opulent.
The walls were white, and the tiles sparkled slightly, and the spiritual qi was denser, forming a white mist.
Wenbo pushed a large door, revealing a luxurious hall with a round table at it centre surrounded by nine chairs, already occupied by the elders from the nine peaks with only the chair beside Yingxue empty.
" Junior brother Wenbo you're here " An elder said with a warm smile.
" I'm sorry for being late " Wenbo said with a smile.
" Hahaha, don't worry, don't worry " The outer sect elder said as he waved his hand nonchalantly.
" Hm, but still leaving the disciple selection like that isn't it a bad thing?" Wenbo asked as he sat at the empty chair beside Yingxue.
" We've left the disciple selection to the core disciples; this matter is of utmost importance it can't wait " Yingxue said.
Wenbo frowned slightly, " What is this matter really?"
" The Xuanhuang empire has discovered an immortal secret realm " Yingxue said.
" This....!"
The elders gasped as they stared at Yingxue in shock.
A secret realm, a realm created in the void, by a semi-immortal usually used to pass on inheritance, and then they was the immortal realm, something created by only immortal beings containing treasures even Immortals will kill for.
" The Xuanhuang empire let this news spread?" The eight peak elder asked with a frown, the Xuanhuang empire was known for it greediness hardly sharing anything.
"Hmm, it is really shocking especially when it is the Xuanhuang empire itself that spread the news" Yingxue said with a grim expression.
" The Xuanhuang empire popularise their discovery of a secret realm?!"
The elders gasped again, their face filled with shock and disbelief.
" Hmm, they sent a letter to all sect and clans that possess an Immortal class being" Yingxue said as she brought out a red envelope with an imperial seal.
" They wish for all the Immortals to embark on this journey with them, and in return they will let the junior generation to enter their secret realm " Yingxue said as she stared at the elders.
" This sound fishy to me "
