Chapter 1388: Someone Definitely Not Suspicious
Feeling like the three elders now looked at her with even more suspicious than before, the old wandering cultivator could not help cursing at herself for her bright idea of going up and asking to look around the Star Shattering Sect.
Although this was pretty harmless on the surface, she just now remembered that the Star Shattering Sect was a bit different from the other sects that she had encountered so far.
Even if they were easy to contact and becoming a member of one of their branch sects would be simple, the main sect of the Star Shattering Sect located at the Shattered Star Peaks was shrouded in a veil of mystery and little information about it ever leaked outside.
The only real thing she knew about the Shattered Star Peaks was from information about the place before the Star Shattering Sect had taken over the place, a time when the Shattered Star Peaks was hard to live in and the only really useful locations were the Ninth Star Peak where spiritual herbs grew and the Third Star Peak where people went to undergo a death cultivation to try and reach the Nascent Soul Realm.
The Third Star Peak didn’t change a lot, and people still went there to undergo death cultivation when their lifespan as Core Formation Realm cultivators were about to run out. However, different from the past, the Third Star Peak now seemed better than in the past.
Not only had the Star Shattering Sect upgraded the place and made it easier for those going there, but those breaking through the Nascent Soul Realm would also have a chance to officially enter the Star Shattering Sect.
Of course, the status of those entering the Star Shattering Sect in this manner changed along with the growth of the Star Shattering Sect.
She had originally intended to check out the Third Star Peak first, but ended up deciding against it, as she learnt that the entire Third Star Peak was blocked off by some kind of barrier that prevented those on the Third Star Peak from looking into the interior of the Shattered Star Peak, while also stopping anyone from wandering into the Shattered Star Peaks through the Third Star Peak.
In the end, this was what caused her to end up in her current situation where she was being looked at rather suspiciously by the three Star Shattering Sect elders.
“Ehm… Might I ask if you know anyone in the Star Shattering Sect or just want to take a look around?”
In the end, as the silence lasted for a little over ten seconds with nobody saying anything, the Domain Lord Realm Elder spoke up to break the silence, causing her to breath a sigh of relief. Not just because the silence was broken, but also because she could sense that the elder from the Star Shattering Sect wasn’t hostile towards her.
Not just that, but from his words, she saw that she might actually have an opportunity to look around the Star Shattering Sect, something she had not expected to get given that the Star Shattering Sect didn’t seem to easily allow others inside their sect outside of those belonging to different powers that submitted to the Star Shattering sect and even then, only those more powerful among them.
Forgetting the fact that she herself was rather powerful as someone in the Later Stages of the Domain Lord Realm. Even inside the Star Shattering Sect, she could be considered among the strongest people in the sect.
“I don’t know anyone in the Star Shattering Sect and just want to look around!”
So, without remembering how strong she was, the wandering cultivator excitedly responded to the Domain Lord Realm Elder, causing him to frown slightly before taking out a communication talisman to contact someone.
Seeing this happen, the older wandering cultivator showed an excited expression on her face. Understanding that the elder should be contacting a senior in the sect about the situation.
Doing something like that at the very least meant that the three elders of the Star Shattering Sect didn’t view her as an enemy, something positive, as it meant she wouldn’t end up attacked by the Star Shattering Sect, something she had experienced in the past when asking a similar question.
The only difference being that the place she was asking to enter back then was some kind of imperial palace she had grown curious about after hearing about the place through rumors about how magical and mysterious it was-
“Do you want to visit the Star Shattering Sect because you want to become a member of the Star Shattering or is considering becoming a member of the sect?”
Interrupting her thoughts at this moment, the Domain Lord Realm Elder suddenly stepped forward and asked her this with a somewhat serious expression on his face for the first time since she had seen him.
“Huh? Joining the Star Shattering Sect? Mabye… I guess?” Hearing what the elder said, she showed a somewhat confused expression as she said this.
Joining the Star Shattering Sect was not something she intended to do, but if it was as good as she heard, she wouldn’t really mind joining the Star Shattering Sect, as she had been looking for a place to settle down now that she was starting to become old.
Not to mention, with the recent surge in demonic cultivators, it would be far safer for her to join a strong power and hide with them, as heading to the core region wasn’t really something she wanted to do. Having done so in the past and faced no small number of life and death situation in the short time she was there.
“I see… you can enter the Star Shattering Sect and look around, but it will be under the guidance of an elder. Wait a bit and someone will come to act as the guide.”
Nodding his head in response to the old wandering cultivator and what she said, the Domain Lord Realm Elder took out his communication talisman and contacted someone before putting it away.
Leaving the old wandering cultivator overjoyed that she had actually managed to succeed in being able to enter the mysterious main sect of the Star Shattering Sect.
