Immortal Supreme: Sovereign of the Grand Dao

================¶¶================

Arthur left the arena and returned to his residence.

He thought about the events today and also the last battle he had with Mark and the friendly warning the young man gave to him.

It has been over fifteen years since his rebirth into this world and Arthur has been limited in his experience of this world.

He spent all his days within the Hartfield Empire and this was the first time he had been away from the empire's territory.

Even though he knew of this world's cruelty, he had yet to experience it for himself.

'I haven't been as thoughtful about things as I should.'

Arthur felt that he had been a bit lax in his plans and maybe actions.

He had just realized that if it wasn't for the help of his Fate Sense, he would not have a specific direction to work towards.

'This can't continue any longer. The Fate Sense ability is only there to assist me and not dictate things.'

'How I use it will be what matters. And besides that, my goals... I made them up on a whim. That's not good is it?'

Arthur questioned himself like this.

His goal to establish a force of his own was not because of benefits, but simply because he felt like it. There was not much thought put into that decision.

His goal to get stronger was pushed by a necessity to survive any confrontation with the Eye of the Heavenly Dao and not really because he wants to be the strongest as he claims.

'My drive for strength isn't all that much.'

Arthur let out a sigh.

'Well, it was a good thing I thought of these things now, or else, it might be detrimental later on.'

'Alright then, it is decided. I will make out time to go on an adventure of this world to gain experience and train...and see the dangers of this world first hand.'

Arthur's thought process became clear as he knew what he needed to do, as he finally noticed the flaws in his mentality.

'Now, to train...'contemporary romance

Arthur entered a meditative state and brought out his Devouring Martial Spirit and began to absorb the world's elemental essence energy.

Fully focused on his cultivation, Arthur's cultivation began to increase.

In the Gold Core Realm, it was all about absorbing and compressing essence energy into your core and after it reaches a certain level, the core will increase in purity and quantity.

It will undergo such tempering ten times before you can reach the peak of the Gold Core Realm.

If Arthur had only one core he would have reached the peak of the gold core realm by now, but he had to absorb and compress ten cores instead.

Moreover, elemental cores are harder to temper than non-attributed gold cores.

Time passed and by the next morning Arthur broke through to the next realm.

"Fifth Rank Gold Core Realm!"

Arthur opened his eyes and exhaled. His breath carried more power and Arthur also began to gain comprehension of the next path of the Dao that came after the comprehension of Intent.

The comprehension of any Dao path such as the Sword Dao for instance starts with Intent.

After comprehending the intent of a Dao to the peak the next realm on the path of said Dao is called, Concept.

When you comprehend intent and use it in battle it gives you a power boost and also suppresses your opponent.

At the next realm which is Concept, your intent can begin to materialize.

Take for instance the Flame Dao. At the intent realm aside from the power boost and the boost with flame-attributed techniques, it can only make your opponent feel some heat.

But when you comprehend the Flame/Fire Concept, you can gather the surrounding fire elemental essence to cause flames to appear.

Although a technique will be needed to execute this properly it is still very powerful.

Arthur left his residence and met with Luke to discuss the matters concerning his faction.

At this time, a lot of the new disciples like them had applied to join Arthur's faction and he needed to set criteria for the members.

Before now, Arthur had not been able to set up a base for his faction in the sect as only inner court disciples and above are given that privilege.

After discussing with Luke, they decided to let all new disciples join and as for the old ones, they set some restrictions.

First off there will be different Tiers in the faction and the ability of any disciple to be ranked higher will be based on talent, age, and cultivation.

This will separate the elite from the canon fodder and also encourage those who were weaker to strive to get stronger because of one thing...benefits.

Obviously, there will be benefits to being ranked high in any faction.

After making such decisions, Arthur discussed with Luke how to spot spies that he believes will be sent by his competitors.

Luke was just as inexperienced as Arthur concerning such matters and they couldn't think of something at the moment so they left that for later.

Although, they decided to be cautious with the information about their activities as much as possible.

When Arthur returned to his residence that day he met the inner court disciple, Matthew who had come to ask him to move out to his new residence as the current strongest outer court disciple.

Luke was with him at that time, so he excused himself and went to handle the matters concerning Arthur's faction.

"So shall we?" Matthew asked.

Arthur nodded as he didn't need to take anything from the now-previous residence as all his belongings were in his storage ring.

Leaving the old place, they walked on the paved pathway ahead.

Walker deeper into the Outer Court, Arthur could sense the increase in the density of the essence energy.

'This would be helpful for my cultivation,' Arthur thought as they walked.

Soon, they arrived at the courtyard that was assigned to him.
