Clarissa splashed into the lake. She looked around and saw that she in the middle of the lake. She called little panda to teleport her to the shore. After changing her clothes she continued practicing her teleportation directions. After mastering her teleportation she started practicing her telekinesis which was also one of her abilities. Telekinesis was the ability to move objects or people others could even attack people without moving their bodies. She started with small objects then moved to large objects. Then she started using it to form attacks when she was battling the shadows. Her soul gave her mind great powers that within a month she could already attack using both her mind and spirit. Clarissa didn't know that she would be considered a monster if it was discovered that she could use spiritual attacks. Only those in the spirit realm could achieve this.
After horning her other abilities Clarissa concentrated on her cultivation and martial arts. Master long taught her on how to fight without depending on weapons or fighting techniques. This was a difficult training but it was also the best solution for her. She had more than three elements so she couldn't just use any weapon. The battle with the shadows was very beneficial for her because they fought with different elements which increased her comprehension.
After one month was over clarissa exited her space and went to look for grandmaster josh. Grandmaster josh was drinking tea while talking with leah and George. Grandmaster josh was quite happy to see her finish her closed door cultivation. He was shocked to see that she was at the ninth stage of qi condensation realm that was because she was just at the fifth stage of qi condensation realm when she entered closed door cultivation. The truth was that clarissa was at the ninth stage of qi transformation realm but master long gave her a storage ring but it was also able to hide her real cultivation level. Master long was worried that her speed in cultivation would bring her some danger.
Actually this speed was very slow to clarissa if not for having an unstable foundation she would already be in the core realm. Master long told her that she should stabilise her foundation in order to avoid future problems in her cultivation. Therefore she practiced her other abilities and fought numerous shadows before increasing her cultivation level. Grandmaster josh was excited to see her because he missed her but also because he would like her to participate in a secret realm trial. This secret realm was located at a neighbouring country the fire dragon dynasty.
It was said that this secret realm appeared out of nowhere. The fire dragon sent some people into the secret realm but those people never came back. They sent another two teams but those people never came out of the secret realm and so they sent invitations to other dynasties to send their geniuses to participate in the trial. Many times when a secret realm is discovered the dynasty will not allow other people inside that's so that whatever treasures they acquire inside will automatically belong to them. But this time fire dragon dynasty had invited the phoenix dynasty, golden dynasty and qilin dynasty. These three dynasties discovered that there was a problem with the secret realm and that's why the fire dragon dynasty invited them.
The secret realm allowed those below the core realm to enter. Therefore every dynasty chose some of their geniuses and those with potential to go into the secret realm. Grandmaster josh wanted clarissa to go but he also feared the dangers in the secret realm. He decided to let her make the decision of whether to participate or not.
Grandmaster josh: "Clarissa it's good that you have progressed so fast in your cultivation but be sure to thouroghly stabilise your levels first."
Clarissa: "yes grandpa."
Grandmaster josh: "there's a secret realm that has appeared in the fire dragon dynasty and they have invited us to participate with them. I was thinking that this would be a great opportunity for you but this opportunity will come with great dangers as well. The people of the fire dragon are known for their treachery so we are sure that this secret realm is not safe but their are those that wish to go. If you'll like to join them I can get you a spot."
Clarissa thought of how a great opportunity this is for her. Those that wish to become stronger have to go through many hardships. With great power comes greater pain. She decided to go to this secret realm and challenge herself plus there were probably many treasures. She's going to be rich.
