Chapter 1724: Reincarnation Sutra—Could It Really Be Possible?
CHAPTER 1724: CHAPTER 1724: REINCARNATION SUTRA—COULD IT REALLY BE POSSIBLE?
Threat?
Isn’t this a blatant threat?
The middle-aged man wanted to slap Carson Flores, but he hesitated, unsure what to do.
He believed him!
He believed Carson really had a terrifying weapon!
Suddenly, Carson had become quite a hot potato.
Kill?
Dare not to kill?
Not kill?
Even if treated as an ancestor, that wouldn’t work either?
Carson acted as if he didn’t know what he had said, curiously asking, "What I just showed you isn’t top-tier, but it’s not small either. How about I add a bit more and take a look at that Reincarnation Sutra?"
The middle-aged man smiled a bit unnaturally, "I need to ask for instructions on this one. Let’s go have some tea first, you need to take a break."
Carson chuckled, "Guest follows the host, it’s up to you."
The middle-aged man led Carson into a secluded secret room, where he really brewed a pot of tea to entertain Carson.
Carson drank the tea without a care, showing no concern for being in the Heavenly Alliance branch, in the midst of danger. Daniel Patel watched this with silent admiration.
This young guy is really good at adapting to situations, his mind works quickly. Previously, they had only agreed to pose as Adventurers to investigate, but as soon as Carson noticed someone secretly watching them, he changed his lines directly!
Not only did he create the persona of a reckless, wasteful young master for himself, he also made up a story about having an Exploding Talisman capable of destroying a Heavenly Immortal, speaking with such calmness and even a hint of arrogance, that the middle-aged man was left bewildered.
The fellow had just emerged with a false smile, obviously intending to lure the two inside to kill them, but now he didn’t dare, instead sipping tea to gauge Carson’s depths!
"Sect?"
Carson, sipping the tea, casually replied, "Can’t say, my mom told me never to reveal my identity easily when outside, as it can invite trouble... Even though our Sect is powerful, we have many enemies, so it’s better to be cautious. You won’t blame me for not saying, right?"
The middle-aged man internally cursed, thinking this guy acted like an arrogant spendthrift, yet said nothing critical, as slippery as an eel.
Could it be this guy is just pretending?
The middle-aged man couldn’t help but doubt, but he had no evidence!
"Brother Chen, drink some tea first, I’ll go ask for instructions."
"Alright, just tell them the elixirs aren’t enough, the magical treasures aren’t enough, I can add more, but that thing, I really can’t give."
The middle-aged man turned and left, signaling the two following him to keep an eye on the doorway, before going off to report.
The elder teaching was Charles Roth, the deputy Alliance Hierarch of the Southern Branch, an aide to the Immortal Monarch of the Four Seas.
Together with the Immortal Monarch of the Four Seas, he obtained the Reincarnation Sutra from the main Hierarch, and repeatedly leveraged it to attract many Cultivators to join, always effectively.
Few Cultivators could resist the lure of the Reincarnation Sutra!
With the Immortal Monarch of the Four Seas often absent, Charles Roth managed operations here, teaching the Reincarnation Sutra to these people.
Charles Roth was holding a Jade Slip, contemplating the Reincarnation Sutra, when the middle-aged man entered.
"Killed them?"
The middle-aged man awkwardly shook his head, "No."
Charles Roth frowned and looked up, "What happened?"
The middle-aged man relayed the situation, speaking with difficulty, "That old servant is a Peak Golden Immortal, I’m not confident to kill him instantly, so I didn’t dare act..."
Charles Roth pondered for several seconds, "Perhaps he’s just deceiving you, and doesn’t actually have such a magical treasure?"
The middle-aged man smiled wryly, "I thought of that, but I didn’t dare take the risk!"
Charles Roth laughed, "To have a Peak Golden Immortal as a servant, to possess a destructive magical treasure capable of threatening a Heavenly Immortal, this youngster likely hails from a force like the Top Ten Immortal Sects. In that case, why not absorb him into our ranks, it might actually be a good thing."
The middle-aged man asked, "Then the Reincarnation Sutra?"
Charles Roth smiled, "Give him the second volume, let him read it. After all, he’s already inside, he can’t just walk out, can he?"
The middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief, "Alright."
Charles Roth instructed, "He can read the second volume, but you have to discover his identity. If necessary, use the Bloodline Gu to control him."
"Yes!"
In the tea room, Carson slowly drank tea. When he saw the middle-aged man return, he smiled, "So, is it fine?"
The middle-aged man laughed heartily, "I have asked for instructions, my superior agreed to give you the Reincarnation Sutra, without asking you for anything in return, but there is one condition..."
Carson asked, "What condition?"
The middle-aged man smiled, "The Reincarnation Sutra belongs to all of us and cannot be spread beyond us. If you want to learn it, you need to join us and become one of us, otherwise, if we give you the Reincarnation Sutra and you leak it out, it could cause massive trouble."
Carson was slightly surprised, could it really be possible?
He had been making things up earlier merely to bluff the other side, not really expecting to learn the Reincarnation Sutra, but the other party actually agreed!
Carson asked, "How do you join?"
At this moment, Carson instinctively recalled Xander Frost’s son, Arthur Frost, thinking if this was how he joined the Heavenly Alliance too?
The middle-aged man smiled, "There is no rush to join, it’s not too late to discuss once everyone is more familiar with one another. For now, you just need to swear not to share the Reincarnation Sutra outside, then I can pass it on to you..."
