《Epic Of The Second Strongest Demonic Blade King》Chapter 145 - Arriving Before The Sect's Gate

"Haha. I will, fellow cultivator" The short and bald cultivator before Xiao Lin said.
He then continued, "Now, why I said I feel deeply sorry for you guys is because of the elements that are included in the first trials for the discipleship admission exams."
"In that trial, you will be facing the arrogant seniors of the sect. I mean, disciples who are one to two layers above each and everyone of you that will partake in that really difficult exam."
"What? Really?" Xiao Lin asked to confirm what the older, bald cultivator before him said.
"Yes, really." The older, bald cultivator before him said with a nod of his head.
"Hmm. I guess that is why it's really difficult for non-genius cultivators to become actual members of the sect" Xiao Lin said with a light of comprehension shining forth from within his eyes.
"Yes. That's why." The cultivator said.
"Hmm. Thank you for this information. I really appreciate it." Xiao Lin said.
"Haha. Don't mention, fellow cultivator. So, just give it a rest for sometime. Then when it's a few days later, you can start preparing to head down to the location of the Celestial Dragon Emperor sect" The cultivator said.
"Alright. I will. Thank you for the advices and suggestions so far" Xiao Lin said while the older, bald cultivator before him only slightly shook his head with a smile appearing in his face.
Then once Xiao Lin said that, he turned around and headed back for the inn that he came out from to appear in the street. And immediately he appeared in the inn, he calmly walked towards his room to resume his comprehension.
The moment he appeared in his room, he sat down in the cross-legged position to resume his comprehension. And this he did for more than six days before standing back to his feet from his seated lotus position in the ground to leave the room that he was in. Then immediately he came out of the inn feeling calm and inspired within, he headed for the garage where numerous beast-drawn carriages were parked at.
Not long, he appeared there. Then when he chose one of the wild beasts-pulled carriages to transport him to his desired location and entered it, the carriage driver immediately started whipping the wild beasts which howled in pain and immediately shot out from where they were towards the massive, widely-opened gate of the garage. Then once they came out of it, they began to dash in the direction that their rider guided them by whipping to go in.

...
After many hours of moving at high speeds since the beasts possessed great stamina, endurance and strength, they arrived at the location of the Celestial Dragon Emperor sect. And once they appeared in this location, Xiao Lin could immediately feel that he had appeared in another region, despite the windows of the carriage shut tight with thick and silver-patterned curtains that hung down from a thin cable fully obstructing his view.
However, he was able to instantly understand that he had gotten to a new area because of the life and vibrancy in the atmosphere. It wasn't dull and slightly chaotic like the one that he could experience back at the town that he took a beast-drawn carriage from. Besides, once they entered this location, a really thin mists that was white in color and transparent, fully permeated the whole region where the sect was located. And once one inhaled this particular thin mist, it brought down a feeling of coolness, calmness, ecstasy and delight upon the mind, body and soul of that person that inhaled it.
Xiao Lin who could see the thin mist due to his powerful vision, shook his head in awe.
He then said with immense happiness in his tone, "This is the right place to be. I can feel and smell it at the same time."
Then once he thought this, he swung open the windows and pulled the curtain up. And the instant that he did so, he looked outside only to become amazed by what he saw.
At the moment, the carriage that he was in was moving through a wide, straight-line path that stretched into the far distance, for as far as the eyes could see anyways. Then by the sides of this road were chains of towering mountains that also went on into the far distance for as far as the eyes could see too.
"Wow. This is really great." Xiao Lin said with a marveled expression in his face.
Then a thought suddenly flashed in his head when he thought of something, "With where this sect is actually located, like as if in the wilderness, it wouldn't ever occur to Nine Calamities and the rest that I could have come here to enrol as a disciple. They wouldn't even think about it. Besides, it's possible that they won't accept the idea that I could choose to join a sect."

"All that will be in their minds now is that I am on the run for my life due to the horrific things that they would believe that I boldly and fearlessly carried out. Well, if that is truly what they would think, then I guess I just got more lucky. Haha!" Xiao Lin said with a contemplative look in his eyes and then ended it with a chuckle.
He then kept quiet and rested his back on the soft, leathery seat that he sat upon within the carriage. And once he did so, he began to greedily inhale the mist that saturated the entire atmosphere in this region.
Then after the carriage that he was in journeyed for many minutes more, forty minutes more to be precise, the carriage finally arrived before the large gate of the Celestial Dragon Emperor sect which was golden in color, and had images of all sorts of fierce, dragon-looking creatures engraved into it.
Then once they came before the massive golden gate, the carriage immediately came to a full halt, instantly forcing Xiao Lin awake from his deeply relaxed state.
Then immediately this happened, with Xiao Lin coming out from his relaxed state, the voice of the carriage driver at the front rang out, "We have arrived before the Celestial Dragon Emperor sect"
"Oh. That's awesome" Xiao Lin immediately responded with a delighted look in his face.
He then produced the amount of coins for the journey which the driver actually told him about from his spatial ring and then gave it to him.
Then once he did so, he opened one of the doors of the carriage and climbed down to the ground using it steps. And immediately he came down from the carriage, he was greeted by hundreds of people that were also cultivators like him, and seem unaffiliated with a body or an organization.
"Wow. So many people have gathered here already" Xiao Lin said with shock in his tone as he looked at the back of the large numbers of people that were gathered outside the huge golden gate of the sect.
He then went to meet one of them and asked with a polite tone in his voice, "Fellow cultivator, have any of the elders conducting the admission exam come up yet to say anything of great importance to all of us that are gathered here?"
"No. Not yet. It isn't time for them to say anything to us yet. Not a lot of cultivators have arrived."
"Although we look large in number at the moment, we are however not that many in their eyes. So, probably not until this place is filled with people for many miles down the road, will the sect elders deem our numbers large enough to say anything of importance to us."
"Therefore, we would have to wait many days more. Probably two to three weeks later when everyone have arrived."
"The thing is, they are giving chance to other cultivators from far and really distant towns or cities to arrive here in time and be able to participate in the admission exams. So, if they initiated the exams now, with other cultivators from faraway places still journeying down here and then miss out of it due to their lateness, it would seem that they are biased towards only the people from this town and hence, could have their ratings lowered. So, they want to give everyone a fair chance of being able to participate in the exams" The person that Xiao Lin asked, said.
"Hmm. I see." Xiao Lin said with an appreciative nod of his head.
However, he knew these things already. Majority of what the cultivator here told him, had already been explained to him by the bald and short cultivator that he met at the town that he took a carriage to this place.
Then just before Xiao Lin could turn around to go find a place, like a cave or somewhere similar to stay till two weeks or three weeks was over, the cultivator that spoke to him said, "Since you are all by yourself, why don't we band together so that we can move mountains together? With our combined strengths, we would be able to go further in the tasks set for us by the elders of the sects. Or what do you think?"
"Hmm. That's good" Xiao Lin said with a nod of his head.
He then continued before the cultivator could say anything else, "I would love to join your group, but I have made up my mind to work alone."

RE: Souls War Apocalyse
When I and every other humans on earth have been summoned to the cursed world of Yvelmore, to serve as a front-line soldier in an impossible war against an invasion of nightmarish creatures, I knew right away that something was going to go wrong. I was right. The war? Hell, we lost it so much all the nations of the world have been destroyed and all the races have disappeared. Me? I was a veteran who survived until the end. Was I strong? Fuck yeah of course I was, except ... it was useless, I died like everybody else. The bad news? When I thought it was finally over, I woke up in the past, the moment I was summoned to the beginning of the war. Come on, seriously? Do I really have to go through all that again? What? And everything restarts every time I die? No... are you fucking kidding me? Right? Genre: Action, Adventure, Medieval Apocalypse, Times Loops, Progression, War & Fantasy, Grimdark, Magic, Horror, LitRPG (but RP). Tone: Despair at the firsts chapters (which makes sense for a story that begins with the end of the world, doesn't it?), and lots of humor and stupid situations after to lighten the tone of the story. (Oh, and the MC is NOT a psychopath, a rapist, a hypocrite, or human garbage, so sorry for those who like that, because I don't like that). Note: Expect this story to contain grammatical errors and occasional random conjugations. I am learning English, and I have made a lot of progress, but I still have some gaps. So if you're allergic to it, don't read this story, you would inevitably be disappointed.
