Alex, currently cross-legged, was in enlightenment, contemplating his sword.
"I want a sword that can vanquish all darkness threatening to consume me and absorb the shadows of the world," he thought.
Alex began his cultivation technique, drawing in vast amounts of mana.
As Alex absorbed the mana, Elder Robert, accompanied by two guards at the Golden Core 7th stage, entered the courtyard allocated to Alex.
Initially dissatisfied by the apparent absence of anyone, Robert's gaze fell upon a young man seated cross-legged in the training grounds beside the courtyard, completely absorbed in absorbing the surrounding mana.
Robert sneered at the sight, noting the young man's Golden Core 2nd stage cultivation. Despite any potential backing from an influential family, Robert felt no need to fear him.
