''A Dao King? Is that the stage above the Spirit realm?''
Little Black nodded his head as he started explaining
''Right! I forgot that master doesn't have any memories regarding the cultivation stages. Above the Heaven grade is the Spirit realm and above that is the Nascent soul stage. Then, above the Nascent soul is the Dao King.
Master knows that when cultivators enter the Heaven grade, they then start comprehending a Dao that they has an affinity with. As the cultivators advance deeper in the Heaven grade then, their affinity and control over their Dao becomes stronger and stronger.''
Shun Long nodded his head as he already knew about this as little Black continued explaining
''After that, comes the Spirit realm. In the Spirit realm, a cultivator has to strengthen his spirit sense and spiritual strength, all in preparation for the Nascent soul stage.
When a cultivator enters the Nascent soul stage, their spiritual sense then transforms into soul sense and can finally leave their body, much like my soul sense can.
Not only that, but a cultivator in the Nascent soul stage can even send his soul to possess another body, if his own body has already been killed but his soul has survived.
That is why the Nascent soul stage is also called the Nirvana stage. Because even though this isn't true rebirth, a cultivator can still regain a new chance in life.''
Little Black then took a moment to stop speaking as he allowed Shun Long to digest all the information about the cultivation stages.
After a while, Shun Long sorted out his thoughts and asked
''Then what happens in the Dao King realm?''
Little Black then answered seriously
''In the Dao King realm, a cultivator has already attained control over their Dao. In other words, if a Heaven grade expert who has comprehended the Dao of Water can bombard the enemy with attacks, a Dao King realm expert can summon a tsunami with a wave of his hand and drown an entire city. This is why Dao King realm experts are also considered kings, among cultivators.
Powerful Dao King realm experts who reach the end of their lifespans, will sometimes opt to open a secret realm and leave behind some of their treasures behind some trials.''
Shun Long was shocked after hearing little Black's words, when Liu Jian's voice suddenly brought him back to the present, as he pointed at the white-haired man next to him and introduced him to everyone
''This is my son, as well as the young lord of the 'floating cloud sect', Liu Changpun.
Since you are all members of my 'floating cloud sect', I expect that all of you will listen to his orders inside the 'Vermilion realm'.''
It wasn't just Shun Long's brows who frowned as he heard this, but everyone else in the top 10 of the arena rankings as well. It was obvious that Liu Jian wanted everyone here to become lapdogs for his son inside the secret realm.
Liu Changpun then took a step forward, and looking at the 'outer disciples' in the top 100, he introduced himself in a proud voice
''I am your future sect master, Liu Changpun.
Although father has said that he expects you to listen to my orders, in reality, most of you will be dead weight when we enter in the 'Vermilion realm'.''
Then, pointing at 3 people he said
''Aside from Wen Zihao, Kang Sun and Tong Yueying, the rest of you 'outer disciples' can move as you please when we enter inside.''
Most of the outer disciples had their faces painted with anger after being called dead weight, but the angriest out of everyone was Wen Zihao and one other man who had both stood up. Wen Zihao then, looked at Liu Changpun as he asked in a loud voice
''Why do I have to listen to your orders when I enter inside? Do you think that my life belongs to you to order as you please, just because you are the young lord of the sect?''
Shun Long also saw the other man that Liu Changpun had pointed at earlier, who was now looking at Wen Zihao and nodding his head at his words. This thin and bald young man, who seemed to be around 25 years old and was a head shorter than Wen Zihao was Kang Sun, the person ranked 2nd in the arena rankings.
Then, turning his head, Shun Long also saw Tong Yueying, a somewhat pretty short-haired young woman who was looking at Liu Changpun with infatuated eyes.
''INSOLENCE!''
The same Elder Qiu that had mocked Hou Yuan before now shouted at Wen Zihao in rage.
Displeasure had also filled Liu Jian's face, but Liu Changpun simply smiled as he said
''Today, I, as the future sect master of the sect have offered you a chance to become my followers in front of everyone here, because I recognize your strength.
If you agree, then there will certainly be bouts of good fortune waiting for you in the future.
However, don't misunderstand things!
It is the sect that has offered you the chance to enter the 'Vermilion realm'. If you don't agree to become my followers, then you can sit outside as you watch the rest of us enter.''
Liu Changpun saw that every outer disciple had been shocked by his words but he didn't seem to mind, as he looked at the top 3 of the arena rankings and waited for their response.
Become his followers, or lose their chance to enter the secret realm? Liu Changpun was certain that they knew what the best choice was.
The first one to step forward was actually Tong Yueying who was ranked 3rd in the arena rankings. Looking at Liu Changpun she smiled coquettishly before she bowed and said
''I hope that the young lord can take good care of Yueying from now on.''
Liu Changpun laughed as he heard this, while a burning gleam flashed through his eyes as he looked at Tong Yueying's body and said
''Of course! Don't worry, as I will make sure to personally protect you.''
Tong Yueying had a bright smile on her face, while Liu Changpun then turned his attention to look at Wen Zihao and Kang Sun as he waited for their answers.
Shun Long was also curious to see what the 2 of them would choose, but he was also shocked by the brashness that Liu Changpun showed when he asked the 3 of them to follow him. It was obvious to everyone by now, that in Liu Jian's eyes, everyone that wasn't Liu Changpun was expendable.
Wen Zihao and Kang Sun were now staring at each other, before they both gave their answers at the same time
''I agree!''
''I refuse!''
''A Dao King? Is that the stage above the Spirit realm?''
Little Black nodded his head as he started explaining
''Right! I forgot that master doesn't have any memories regarding the cultivation stages. Above the Heaven grade is the Spirit realm and above that is the Nascent soul stage. Then, above the Nascent soul is the Dao King.
