Arriving, Shen Yue changed his clothes when stopping at the outskirts. He ran into a bit of trouble while moving here, but it was just so easy to deal with. Killing them before any others arrived on the spot was the way to go.
Activating the Talisman given by the Skyblaze Sect Ambassador, he was transported directly to the Skyblaze Sect Outer Area. His own improvement of the Talisman with Flame Vortex Core energy helped to mask the trail.
Calling his people out, Long Sha, Ye Han, Duan Jian, Yun Ling, and Zhang Ming. The other Officers that came with were already inside the place studying and learning with Wei Nan, Maynard, Hua Huo, Yu Yan, and Hongyue.
Greeted, they were escorted to the area set up by the other Ambassador, who received a notification when the Talisman was put to use. He came through in getting him a fairly decent place.
As everyone moved out to find a suitable room for themselves, Shen Yue spread his Astral Sense out and checked over the formations inside. A pulse from the Heart Method (Maxium) afterward revealed a small insight.
"Well, I would be disappointed if they didn't take certain precautions." Mixing some changes inside each of them to give him control of the formations, he added Rune Formations from Star Martial God Technique to help his people understand them better. "This will take some time."
Working away, Time passed quickly. The Flame Vortex Core refined the resources away, but Shen Yue held off on absorbing the abundant energy just yet. No sense in wasting some of the Support Energy yet.
"That is done; now I can take a simple bath before moving on to my next task." Stretching his legs, the sight of the room really was not bad at all. "Even has a fireplace. How interesting."
Before he could start, Yu Yan came around. The others already went to check in properly instead of checking out the living situation. He, however, still needs to. Finding out that he was outed by a slip of the tongue by someone, it was best to make minor appearances.
"Why, oh why did you idiots mention my name so openly?" Shen Yue frowned while they moved. The sound Seal prevented anyone from hearing the conversation between the two. "I was only hoping to pop in every now and then after finding out anything worthwhile in the Sect as the Ambassador as it was, now a few appearances as myself is needed."
"It was an accident." Yu Yan apologized for the 4th Time already. Their was a reason it was only her with him and not the one who let it slip out, which was all the rest of them. It was really on accident due to them not liking the way the new disciples insulted their master. "You have the respect of so many already; you just need to show your face."
"Hey, isn't that the girl with all the fire moves?" A disciple pointed at Yu Yan, seeing the two walking so carefree. "Who is the person with her?"
"Maybe its the Enforcer that has been in hiding or the Young Master of the new disciples they were talking about?" Another disciple who was a bit stronger said, but he to couldn't tell what Realm Shen Yue was at due to the clothes for one.
The little gossiping disciples only increased as the two moved. Even a few Outer Area Elders had taken notice. Yet neither moved to make trouble.
At first, anyway.
Having learned what craziness he showed from the Divine Feathers Sect when getting checked on his Spiritual Root, Shen Yue made sure to limit it to only showing a Spiritual Root at the Heaven Type.
At Grade 9 and really dark, a few people shot off to go inform what they saw.
The tester smiled, showing more respect than he already was. To keep from wasting Time so much, Shen Yue took out a Board with Caligraphy on it. The wood was aged by his Time energy, increasing the age when checking it.
"What did you give him?" Yu Yan asked as they walked away. 'I didn't sene anything out of the ordinary when it came out the storage ring.'
"A Purification Sutra." Shen Yue had written a good portion of what he learned from the refined remains from the Spiritual God War. It was best to put it into more practice to deal with the unusual energy in the Divine Feather Sect. "Helps clean the energy in an area and promote .. peace in a person. I duno for certain."
He shrugged. The memories gained said so, but he didn't practice it himself. Getting the remainder of what was needed, it was well enough that he was put in the Gifted Class and would not have to report for everything.
It just meant he wouldn't get any of the small rewards they handed out for a time. Walking around the Sect with Yu Yan giving a tour was distracting enough. It felt really normal, as if he was sightseeing or an a tour.
"You are going to draw.... right here and now?" She asked, seeing him so relaxed.
"Yeah, I like scenery. I can't believe I left all my recording orbs while traveling. Will have to make more later." Having a few pieces of paper was also bad. Then he rembered he used it a lot when at the Divine Feathers Sect. "Need to go to the market soon."
Yu Yan, like several other people, was watching. It didn't take long for Shen Yue to forget about everyone present and focus on the piece. Using his various Laws instinctively while working, the images looked almost alive.
The view was close to that of a trip he had in Venice. Bustling people in the area with a backdrop of a large mountain. The clouds in the distance obscured the mountain in an odd way. Almost dancing between the crevices.
"What's going on?" Duan Jian and Sikong Hongyue came up behind them after some time. The lovers openly cause a few to have heartbreak.
"He just started this a few hours ago. Anytime he finishes one sheet, he just moves another over." Yu Yan was impressed at first, not that she wasn't finding it odd. Each piece finished kept moving to his left side, making a portrait. "If you look close, you can see people inside."
"No way." Hongyue blinked as she focused on one of the pieces. "The detail.. is really great." She looked pass the piece toward the mountainside. Focusing as much as she could. "There is actually someone moving out there, just can't make it out with my own eyes."
"That is scary considering you have some of the best eyesight among us." Duan Jian rubbed his chin, turning to his boss thoughtfully. Looking at him closely, he could see the different Runes and Inscription Patterns moving under the hood. "Is he training his "Senses" higher?"
"Maybe." Yu Yan voiced after taking in the situation fully. 'Where did that Sash go from that life of his?' She didn't notice it was missing when they left the dwelling at first. 'Maybe it was put away to help difference between himself and Shen Yue because of our loose lips.'
Exhausting his Heavenly energy took a while. Once it ran out, Shen Yue blinked while rubbing his eyes. The purple glow disappeared after some time.
"That was odd." His Astral Sense supported the pieces in the air still. He was just about to put it all away when someone stopped him.
"How much?" A somewhat dope-ish youth asked. Hands are already on one of them. "These look really good."
The watching disciples were jealous. The young man was Ye Xuan of the Ye Clan. A bit of prat but not to bad when he got his way. Didn't mean his intentions didn't cause trouble. Plus, he had his eyes on the wrong people in Shen Yue's party.
"50,000 spiritual stones apiece." Shen Yue was weirded out about the drawings and not paying much attention. Very weirded out by it, actually. The lingering traces contained small traces of Law Energy and Heavenly Energy on their own. 'Some of this .. is in the past. Stupid crazy cultivation revealing shit I know nothing about. Not even a full picture either forming in my mind.'
Besides what he saw with his eyes, mentally, something kept forming up between both the pieces and the view before breaking apart almost annoyingly at that in his head.
"I will pay... 75,000 for the whole lot." Ye Xuan smirked as he thought the newcomer would agree. 'Even if he is the Young Master of those new disciples, he is still just a person from the Tiny World.'
The brat was in for another surprise, the same as most.
"No." Shen Yue rubbed the brow of his nose while placing all the pieces into his Security storage ring on the left hand. he was not putting this in his Internal Space. "It is so late, and I am wasting Time. Going to take a nap or something." Walking off, his people followed along, making idle chats.
"Hey!" Ye Xuan shouted angrily. He was ignored entirely, which only made him more upset. "These newbies need to be taught a lesson!" Humiliated, he walked off.
An Elder had watched everything take place from a distance. As a longtime member of the Sect, he noticed a few differences in the mountains and the pieces. Centuries-old, he caught that the images contained parts of the mountain that no longer existed.
*Woosh!* Vanishing on the spot, it was best to learn more about the new Ambassador and his Top Disciple.
.
Lodgings-
.
Resting until the next day, Shen Yue finished his final preparations. The Formations were all altered under his control, and the method to head towards the Outside was ready just in case an accident occurred.
Astral Sense picked up movement on the border of his property. Someone had kept tabs on him ever since making it back to the housing area. Only able to tell he was in there, it was not good for them to return to report without a bit of information.
*Schlick!* With his Sword Attainment, it was easy to strike marks against the observer harmfully. He carved the message he would kill the person next Time.
They left getting the message loud and clear.
"Its about time." Shen Yue's eyes flared open. His people came around to him. "How are you feeling?" The Scarlet Flame Snake nodded it was ok. More than ready to get started on getting stronger. "The rest of you?"
"We are ready to go." Duan Jian answered. The others nodded, feeling the same. Passing over a storage ring of purchases completed, it was best to get started soon. "Maynard is the only one we are waiting on." Mentioning the Fiery Elf Tribesman, he actually made it over to them. Hua Huo and Yun Ling was moving with him.
They coraled the cultivator from his fun.
*Shine!* Activating his Aspect of Time with his Flame Vortex Core Energy, they disappeared into the 2nd Dream Bowl. Leaving the Scarlet Flame Snake to guard the home with the others. The Officers only knew they needed to hold down the fort for now if someone tried to enter unannounced.
*Doop!* As if a waterdrop left from the very floor itself, everyone appeared on a small spot surrounding Shen Yue in a circle. The sensation was somewhat jarring but not to different than the Teleportation pads in Dark Moon City.
The floor lost its glow and returned to normal. Rune and Inscription marks are visible on the surface that matches the 2nd Dream Bowl. The location they needed to be in to exit the stationary Subsidiary Dimension to return.
"What a large library!" Hua Huo remarked first. "Is this how you know so much?" Turning back to look at the puzzled awestruck group, she was suprised at the different states of everyone.
"Nope. I haven't read anything in here yet." Shen Yue shook his head. A lot of them were suprised this was the case. "We will stay here for seven years for now. I want you all to develop mentally by finding something you like yourself here from the different Manuals."
"What about on the outside?" Long Sha asked. "The time difference has to be worthwhile right? To bring us here to study during this Time."
The answer was suprising to most but Long Sha and Ye Han for some reason.
