Chapter 886 Second Opportunity
Alex understood what this meant. If he had passed the test, then he could go visit Elder Xuan.
"Wait, when is Elder Xuan leaving for the Dao mountain?" Alex asked. The Dao mountain opened up the day after tomorrow, so Alex needed to go meet her immediately.
"You don't have much time," the elder said.
"I need to leave," Alex said and tried to move, but a wave of nausea hit him all of a sudden. Not only that, his entire body was extremely fatigued, and with no Qi, his Undying physique wasn't working too.
"Don't worry. I will take you to see Elder Xuan," the elder said and took him.
Pearl and Whisker jumped into their beast space as Alex was taken away from the building.
The land was clad in darkness, but the sky was still a little alight. The sun had set for the sect, but the clouds could still be seen illuminated it the light.
Below the elder's tower, in between two of the bridges that led down to the sect, a group of 100 girls was gathered, along with about 60 elders.
They were a few minutes behind on schedule to leave, but because Elder Xuan had told them not to leave for a while, they had to wait for whatever was going on.
Far in the distance, they suddenly noticed two people flying towards them. Actually, it was more like 1 person was flying and she was carrying the other person behind her.
The elder landed in the snow, in front of the group, and so did Alex.
"Elder Xuan," the elder called out. "He's done it."
The elderly woman's eyes went wide in surprise. She turned to look at Alex who was seriously out of everything be it Qi, stamina, or mental strength.
"You really did the impossible. I… I didn't expect that at all," the elder said. The other elders looked confused as they weren't in the knowhow about what went in between Alex and the elder.
The elder that brought Alex walked up to Elder Xuan and handed her the storage bag to show everything that Alex did.
"You really made 1750 pills in the span on 3 days. That too while having it all be above Heaven grade. That is very commendable," she said. "You did well to make proper use of the opportunity I provided you with, regardless of it being an impossible task."
"Does that mean I can join you on your way to the Dao mountain, elder?" Alex asked.
"Not yet," the elder said. "As you may remember, what I gave you was an opportunity for an opportunity for an opportunity. You did well to seize the first opportunity. Now it's time for you to do the same again."
Alex waited patiently to hear what she was going to say.
"We are only allowed to take 100 disciples over to the Dao mountain. That is the agreement the 5 of our sects landed upon," she said. "So, there must always be 100 disciples."
Alex was trying to use as little spiritual sense as he could as his mind was still in pain, but when the elder said that he had to check.
There were exactly 100 disciples there. Which meant that if he were to go, one of these girls must stay back.
"Choose one of them. If you can defeat her in combat, you may take her spot," the elder said.
He sighed. As expected, he had to fight someone to take away their opportunity for himself.
"Elder, that's a little…" the elder close to Alex felt that this was a little wrong. Alex was not in the shape to be fighting anyone. He had no qi, his mind was in chaos, and his body was fully fatigued as well.
"Her!" Alex spoke without hesitation. The elder had well intentions, but he needed to accept this offer.
He saw anger flash on the pretty face of the girl he chose, and he did feel a little bad about taking away her spot, but his needs came before anyone else's.
"This one? May I ask why you chose her?" the elder Xuan asked.
"No reason, aside from her being the closest to me," Alex said.
The elder smiled. "Very well. Elder Bing, will you please officiate this match between the juniors?" she asked.
"Yes, elder Xuan," the elder next to Alex spoke.
All the other girls, both disciples, and elders moved back to make room for Alex and the girl.
The girl moved forward and brought out a weapon from her storage bag. It was a spear, made up of some sort of wooden shaft ad a blade that almost seemed to sparkle.
Alex tried to feel the girl's cultivation base but was unable to do so as he didn't have any Qi in his body right now.
However, given that she was given such an opportunity, she had to be no weaker than True Emperor 9th realm.
