Raven knew that he had no choice but to leave the sect as soon as possible for his mission . He had time but it was not wise to offend the Disciplnary Authorities for such small matters . Back on earth the people with authorities would usually bend laws and torture their opponents and rarely kill . But in this world as long you have power whether it be a force or your own strenght , the opponent had no choice but to die in grief .
Raven being sensible, immediately packed a few sets of clothes in his space ring and left his residence . There was no fear of any thief targeting his residence anyway so Raven left with a peaceful mind . Right now it was night time So the disciples were less in number while on the road . Raven easily came back at the familiar gate and flashed his Token towards the guard who was clearly bored .
The gate opened and Raven immediately vanished with fast speed because with his Divine Sense , he saw someone trailing him in shadows . Raven remembered the warning of Mark that many factions would try many means to rope him in so Raven chose to escape quickly to avoid direct encounter with then . This was the best way to avoid trouble after all .
Cultivators would use Divine Sense only occasionally because this was their soul power and overusing it will cause severe pain but magically Raven had no luck with pain so he kept his Divine Sense all the time . He himself did not think that even if his soul has the power of being immune to pain but his thoughts were proven as he experimented with overusing his Divine Sense according to the limits mentioned in books but he did not feel any pain . He has not slept since then and kept Divine Sense On but the result was same
. This discovery was a good one as he will have time to avoid ambushes most of the times as even if would be helpless if his opponent's cultivation was too higher than him .
The familiar Outer Court came in sight but Raven was only focused on leaving the sect mountain so he dashed towards the Sect Entrance . He reached there in minutes and successfully left after flashing his Token . Disciples leaving the sect for missions was a common matter so nobody dared to halt him for chats .
At his right side was the neverending mountain range which reminded Raven of the month he spent there . His hard fought battles with hoards of demonic beasts could never be forgotten as he experienced growth in strenght and his Martial Heart there . Raven shook his head and climbed the stairs down from the left which lead towards barren plane extending forward for thousands of meters but soon city walls were in sight and Raven felt happy to experience civilization different from the sect once again .
This road was no man's land but the presence of The Floating Cloud Sect nearby caused it to become a safe place because no body wanted to die and be chasen by thousands of cultivators. Raven arrived in front of the gates of the city walls and was politely greeted by the guards because he was wearing white robe uniform of The Floating Cloud Sect .
The culture only progressed similar to that of the medieval age on earth so the city did not impress Raven much except the fact that he could see many shops still open at night time while the atmosphere was lively. He had missed bustling cities very much because the disciples were always busy with cultivation . The feeling of back on earth caused Raven to feel a little nostalgic.
The city was the border city of Vermillion Empire and was named after the sect . White Cloud City also served as a merchant city because this area was almost devoid of bandits due to the presence of the sect thus ensuring smooth trade route . Despite being night time , mercenaries and merchants were entering the city for various purposes like return or rest . The number of hotels was good so Raven managed to find a perfect place to settle for the night . Raven wanted to went some accumulated steam in a brothel so he booked a room in a small inn nearby .
He changed into common clothes and with his average looks, nobody would suspect him to be a dignified cultivator belonging to the esteemed Floating Cloud Sect . Naturally the brothel was filled with sounds of pleasure and Raven smelled the fragrance of feminine perfume lingering in the air . In this world the average lifespan of humans was longer due to the baptism of energy and they could reddem youthful traits for longer especially for women
. Raven's taste was busty milfs so he immediately asked the old madam to introduce him a nice lady . Milfs were not popular with others it seems so Raven met his partner for the night quickly and enjoyed fleshly pleasure for the next few hours . Now Raven had graduated from being a virgin and became a man in both body and mind .
He returned inside his room in the inn and decided to cultivate the whole night . Naturally due to the absence of Energy Gathering Formation , the speed was slow but Raven did not mind much as he would advance much faster now with the help of beast cores which he would acquire in good amount inside the forest located next to the city through hunting. Level 2 and higher beasts have beast core condensed inside their bodies which contains pure essence of their energy . These cores are really sighted cultivation resource because absorbing the energy from them resulted in faster cultivation . These cores naturally contain a little chaotic force which causes pain but for Raven this method is much better than cultivating normally . He was not afraid of pain if something doesn't harm his body .
He did not need to eat food but Raven was used to eating 3 meals a day for so many years on earth so the habits will take time to change . He ordered only heavy stakes and ate them after garnishing the dishes with his own spices . The atmosphere of city suited Raven much more than the Sect .
In the morning he toured the small city and finished in just a day . There were many interesting things like Mercenary Guild and Auction Houses . These two were foreign subject for Raven so his interest was piqued.
After gathering information through conversations he came to know that these 2 establishments were the branch of huge organizations that were funconting word wide in all of the regions . This shocked Raven because the power behind these two must be much much stronger than the Floating Cloud Sect then . His Sect Leader was only a Martial Peak Realm expert while there were many powerful realms after that . Raven now decided once again to visit many places in this world while expecting new things on the way in future . He had no interest right now in becoming a mercenary and he had no spirit stones either so Auction House was also out of question. So Raven decided to spend the night medidating and cultivating and continue his journey tomorrow.
