To Walk The Mist Chapter 56

Ed had been led by the beautiful looking assistant towards the first section . He had never bee in this part of the great spill before, but then again, he had never been in much of the great spill since his arrival . He looked at the greatly spaced caves .

The first section must be the elite section . The astral energy Ed felt here, was as thick as back in his old cave . Then one could only imagine how thick it would be in these caves .

The assistant glanced back at Ed to see his reaction, but she was disappointed when he did not have any expression at all . She could tell he was only at spirit picking . At this stage, a normal cultivator would be shocked by the purity of the energy in the area . But he was not . Even though she had heard that Ed killed so many people in the battlefield, she did not think him anything great . After all . Those killed were mostly spirit picking and he himself was just a spirit picking junior .

He looked to be no older than twenty five . Still a spirit picking junior at this age, his future was limited . She knew that most on the top ten were all young and had not hit twenty yet . Yet they were at least on the spirit merging stage . Still, they could be seen as the lowest of geniuses . She had travelled the world with the first elder and knew that such people on the top ten were very many in the world . Those classified as geniuses here, are nothing but ordinary outside .

Compared to Ed walking behind her, there was nothing special about him . He could be classified to be the lowest in this world just after the mortals .

Ed did not know that this girl was analysing and already looking down on him . He just followed behind her quietly till they reach a dark building . Well, it used to be dark, as the red and almost white sands of the grounds have coloured it over the years . The great spill was also a desert plane, so this was normal .

He was led into the inner most room . The astral energy in her, was pure and strong . It was as though the buliding was constructed upon the main astral vein it self .

Inside was a woman seated in lotus fashion . He had expected the first elder to be a man, but this did not at all shock him . This worlds was not ruled by men . There were women just as scary as men . Like Madam Ge he had met before . This woman before him did not give out half the aura he perceived from Madam Ge, but he was strong . She was at the mid spirit awareness stage .

He almost nodded at this . He had heard about the clans outside and knew that even the Ah clan ancestor was at peak of spirit awareness . For the south side to control the great spill, they did not need someone that is more powerful than their city lord .

"You are Ed?" the woman's calm voice entered his ears . This voice could calm even the wildest of men . It did not help that she was stunning either, but this did not work on Ed . Calm? He had heard calm . Beauty? Nothing in the world is as beautiful as the sister in white . After one looks upon her, it is impossible to see anyone as truly beautiful . She was his quest . He had to return to her . all the women in this world could never compare .

Seeing Ed completely unfazed by her charm, she smiled . Very few men in the world would be unfazed in the presence of a beautiful woman .

"Come . Sit . " she offered him a seat . Ed sat before her in silence . She too, said not a word .

"Is there a reason you called me?" Ed asked after a while .

"Insolence!" the assistant bellowed at Ed . It is okay if this man was not fazed by master's beauty, but to talk to her that casually? He was asking for death! Ed completely ignored her .

"That's okay, Ntia . You may leave . " the first elder said . She calmed her self, before leaving after a bow .

"Ignore her . she is not used to people talking to me casually . " the fist elder said, but Ed did not answer .

"You want to know why I called you? Your actions are commendable . "

"Is that it?" Ed did not believe she called him here because his actions were commendable .

"Because of this, I am making an exception . I will accept you as my disciple . " she said and he paused .
