Chapter 28 - Journey to the Runes

This beginner cultivation technique he got from the old man might be stronger than he initially thought. It's possible that the cultivation technique Thale learned from the old man is more advanced or has unique abilities that allow him to move his Qi to different parts of his body more easily than other cultivators. It's also possible that Thale has a natural talent or aptitude for cultivation that allows him to manipulate his Qi in this way. It's worth noting that cultivation techniques and abilities can vary greatly between different sects and individuals, so it's difficult to say for sure without more information. In any case, it's clear that Thale has a unique advantage that he can use to his advantage in his cultivation journey.

The cultivators introduce themselves as members of the White Lotus Sect, led by Vivian. They thank Thale for saving them and offer to bring him back to their base to rest and recover. Thale agrees, hoping to gather more information about the other sects and the trial taking place on the island.

As they journey together, Thale learns more about the White Lotus Sect's focus on spiritual enlightenment and their strong code of honour. He also learns about the other sects and their various specialties and philosophies.

As they near the White Lotus base, Thale can sense a powerful aura emanating from it. He realizes that the trial on the island must be a highly competitive and dangerous event, and he begins to consider whether he wants to participate or not.

Thale decides to join the trial and compete against the other cultivators. He knows that it will be a difficult and dangerous journey, but he is determined to become stronger and avenge Elara. As he trains and prepares for the trial, Thale continues to experiment with moving his Qi to different parts of his body, discovering new abilities and powers that he never knew he had. He is excited to see what he is capable of and what the future holds for him as a cultivator.

Thale tells them about his encounter with the pirates and how he ended up stranded on the island. He doesn't mention Elara, as the memories of her are still too painful for him to talk about. The other cultivators nod sympathetically and offer to help him get off the island once the trial is over. Thale is grateful for their kindness and decides to join them in the trial, hoping that it will give him the opportunity to become stronger and take revenge on the pirates that caused him so much pain.

The group of cultivators they encountered had a logo of a green tree on their robes, representing their focus on nature and healing techniques. The teacher was a kind-looking man with a gentle smile and a warm presence. His name was John.

Thale was intrigued by the different cultivation techniques and philosophies of the various sects. He wondered how his own cultivation journey would unfold on this dangerous island.

As they continued on their journey, they encountered more sects and schools, each with their own unique logos and teachings. Thale was fascinated by the diversity of cultivation practices and couldn't wait to learn more.

Eventually, they reached the runes, which were ancient symbols etched into the ground that had powerful spiritual energy emanating from them. The cultivators from each sect had to perform a series of tasks and challenges in order to prove their worth and earn the right to use the runes.

Thale watched as the other cultivators performed their tasks, showcasing their skills and abilities. He couldn't wait to participate and prove his worth as well.

The tasks were a method designed to only allow the strong to enter and benefit from the ancient runes. It seems that Thale and the group of cultivators he joined are not the only ones competing for the ancient runes. It is likely that the other cultivation sects are also competing for the opportunity to obtain the ancient runes and gain their benefits. Thale's group must be careful and prepared for any challenges or obstacles that they may face as they make their way to the ancient runes. It will be important for Thale to use his cultivation skills and abilities to the best of his ability in order to succeed in this competition.
