Path of Absolute Transcendence

Kai was practicing his talent in his room. Since he removed the restriction on his talent, he needs to familiarize himself with it.

"All disciples should assemble at Hell Field tomorrow morning."

The voice of the grand elder echoed through the sect.

'Well, it is a surprise,' thought Kai. The sudden announcement was a bit of a surprise for Kai, but he thought it had something to do with the secret realm.

The next day, Kai arrived at the location. There are already a lot of disciples who have arrived at the location and are discussing the announcement.

"I heard this time there will be competition for entry into the secret realm."

"How did you know about it ?"

"My father works as an inner sect elder, I got the information from him."

"How does the competition work? Is there any format ?"

"I don't know about the details. My father only told me this much."

Kai overheard the discussion between the two disciples.

'It seems there will be a lot of changes from now on.' thought Kai. There was no change in the entry for the secret realm last year, but this time there is a change.

Soon the grand elder and group of elders arrived at Hell Field.

"Today there is an important announcement to make, so all disciples keep quiet." Said an elder.

All the disciples became quiet after hearing the voice, and the grand elder spoke next.

"As you all know, our Slaughter Palace will open the secret realm on special occasions for all disciples. This time we will open the secret realm to celebrate the coronation of the holy son.

But there is a change this time, the spots for the secret realm are only limited for each major realm, and others have no chance for this chance."

The disciples started murmuring about the decision, as it caused a lot of dissatisfaction among them.

"Don't worry about the limited spot. Since there are only limited spots, the resources available are abundant, and the sect personally added some treasure from the treasury to add more resources for cultivation." The grand elder said it with a smile on his face.

After hearing this, the voice of the disciples subsided a lot. Seeing this, the grand elder continued his speech.

"The spot for the secret realm is decided by a tournament among yourself. The opponent will be in the same major realm as you and the top 100 from each major realm will participate in the expedition into the secret realm. There are also additional prizes for the top 10 in each major realm."

Hearing that there is additional praise and extra resources for cultivation, all the disciples become excited, and no more complaints arise. They all understood that only the strong could enjoy the benefits, and the weak would be suppressed everywhere.

"Yang Wudi is a genius, his idea is really good. With this, we can only train elite disciples at a lower cost on our side." Said, Grand Elder.

"Yeah, making Yang Wudi the holy son is the best decision that we made." Replied another elder.

There are a total of more than a thousand disciples in the outer sect alone, and the inner sect also had about a thousand disciples. The resources these disciples used in the secret realm are enormous.

By only allowing hundreds for inner and outer sects, the resources can be reduced by a large amount, and they will be able to only use them for elite disciples.

'This move by the sect is really good. It seems Yang Wudi took a chance to make a positive change as soon as he took the position. I need to be careful in executing the plan.' thought Kai. With this move, Yang Wudi's position in the upper echelon will also be stable.

Kai decided to meet Anna to talk about the adjustment to the plan.

"Anna, you need to make Williams fall in love with you. I don't care what methods you use, but you need to do that in order not to be found." Kai said to Anna as he saw her.

"I already planned to do that when I first saw him; he is very easy to manipulate, so don't worry about it," Anna said casually. She did not mind manipulating a pure person's heart for her safety.

'It seems she is more ruthless than I thought. But it is better to be like this, as it will give her a lot of chances to survive. She is a very useful tool.' thought Kai.

Anna's POV

Anna went to visit Williams after meeting with Kai.

"Senior brother Williams, junior sister Anna is here for a visit." Said Anna from outside.

"Junior sister Anna, what a surprise! Come in."

Williams came out of the room and invited Anna with a happy smile.

"What is the reason for your visit, sister ?" Asked Williams in a humble tone. He did not give her usual smile but asked with a serious tone.

"There is no reason, senior brother. I just wanted to visit you." Replied Anna. Her tone is a little girlish, not like the commanding tone that she used before.

William became excited as he heard the voice of Anna.

"Did you come to visit me, sister Anna ?" He asked the question to make sure he had heard it correctly before.

"Is senior brother not like my sudden visit? Maybe I should only visit you for official purposes." Anna said it in a sad tone. She seems to be hurt by his words.

"It is not like that, sister; I am just surprised by the sudden change in attitude." Replied Williams. He had already seen Anna's attitude in the previous meeting; the sudden change confused him a lot.

"That was when I came for official duty. So I had to maintain my character to avoid any trouble." Anna said it in a pitiful voice.

"I can understand it, sister." Williams also believed her lies.

" You don't need to call me sister, instead, call me Ann from now on."

"Sister, is it appropriate ?" Asked Williams doubtfully. He never thought she would ask her to call intimately on their second meeting.

"Yeah, you can call me from now on. But only when we are alone."

"Okay, sister Anna, s-sorryy Ann. I will call you that from now on." Williams replied in a happy tone.

"Senior brother, do you know anything about the tournament ?"

"This tournament is newly introduced by the sect. I also heard that this plan was devised by the holy son, Yang Wudi. He is a threat to us, we need to eliminate him as soon as possible before he becomes strong and changes the status quo." Williams blurted out all the truth without even hiding a bit.

"How did you know about the involvement of Holy Son's senior brother? "

"It was my father in the sect who told me the information, and he also praised the holy son a lot. He never praises anyone unless he is really good. So we need to eliminate him soon to avoid getting caught."

"Thanks for the information, senior brother."

"You don't need to call me as a senior brother from now on. Just call me 'Will' ."

"Okay, Will, I will call that from now on," Anna said in a happy tone. Her expression seems genuine, without any flaws.

"Ann, can we go outside for a walk around the sect? I will show you around the inner sect."

"Okay, Will, I didn't visit the inner sect before." Replied Anna. Outer sect disciples are not allowed to visit the inner sect other than visiting the living area of the disciples. Anna never went to other places in the inner sect, so she accepted the invitation.

Then both Anna and Williams visited all the places in the inner sect. William was really happy to spend all the time with Anna.

"I am very happy today; we should go like this another time," Anna said before leaving for the outer sect. She was smiling all along when she told her about the news.

"Thanks, Ann, we will visit outside the sect next time."

Both Anna and Williams parted ways after their unusual date.

'He is very ignorant about feelings between men and women.' thought Anna. During their date, Williams never even took the initiative to hold hands together.

Kai's POV

Kai was spying on Anna during their date.

'It seems she did not do anything stupid' thought Kai. He thought Anna might do anything stupid to avoid his clutches, so she decided to spy on her using the insects.

Since the insects can fly, he was able to completely watch their date without going out.

'I should not use my will path during the competition.' thought Kai. He does not want to reveal the existence of Will's path unless he is strong enough. The heavenly dao only concealed his will cultivation, not willpower.

He will be found if he uses willpower before a strong cultivator, so he cannot use it in this competition. He also won't be able to use his sword intent and [Freedom scripture] to their full potential, as they need the assistance of the will path.
