Tap! Tap!

The Principal entered the infirmary followed by Wang Guozhi and Ling Yu behind him. Their expression was a little bit off as the Principal quickly asked Duan Li.

"Duan Li, is what Ling Yu just reported to me true? You encountered one of the Guardian of the Eternal maze who was at the immortal ascension realm?"

Hearing this question, Duan Li whom was glued onto the bed could only nod his head slowly as he replied, "En! There was no mistaking it because I've once achieved the same state and knew of its spiritual Qi fluctuations!"

"Furthermore, it appears that the cultivation realm doesn't just stop at immortal ascension realm!" continued Duan Li as he explained the realm beyond the first shackle.

The trio was shocked as they listened to these realm states known as the 'shackles' that was even more heaven-defying than the immortal ascension realm that they heard of.

Within their eyes, an old flame that was previously like the small kindle flame of a candle, suddenly burnt furiously like the hot blazing sun! They found their motivation to cultivate was re-ignited as they realized these new possibilities!

Duan Li had opened an entirely new horizon for them to achieve!

"If... If what you said is true, then... the first shackle is actually the first step to true immortality!" said the principal as he clenched his fist tight in agitation.

Even Wang Guozhi and Ling Yu was equally astonished and excitement filled them. "In your opinion, if you achieved realms beyond the first shackle, will you be able to prevent from what is about to come within 7 years?" asked the principal with a serious expression.

Duan Li shook his head and replied, "No... But! If everyone were to ascend beyond the first shackle! Then we would have that chance!"

Duan Li didn't want to give them false hope with a false statement. The feeling of despair that he got from the sun god, it doesn't look like he himself alone could stop it.

Hearing Duan Li's answer, the principal nodded, feeling very satisfied!

He now knew that Duan Li was truly destined to fight against the end times. If the latter were to answer otherwise, then even if it were the case, his opinion of him would definitely plummetted to rock-bottom!

A destined person to fight alone while leaving everyone else in the dust was just sending people to their inevitable curse of eternal damnation!

Sure, even if they managed to achieve it, would history not repeat? Then, when the same thing happened again, would they have to continue depending on the power of a single person once more?

Thus, Duan Li's answer meant that the other party aimed to bring them along the ride and not left them behind instead!

This was the true definition of what a leader is!

"Good! Good! Hahahaha! Then we shall strive to ascend beyond the first shackle together!" the principal laughed out loud before he continued, "But how are we going to achieve this within 7 years? We would need tremendous amount of resources that would be unimaginable to supply, even for the Jiu empire!"

"About this... I have a rough idea of where to start!" replied Duan Li with a confident look.

"But first for a start... could principal please remove your spatial magic on me?" Duan Li smiled awkwardly.

Oh!

The situation suddenly dawned onto them as they looked at the state at which Duan Li was currently.

Pu!

Hahahahahahaha!

They all laughed out loud seeing how comical the entire situation was, looking all serious and pumped up to ascend beyond the first shackle when their 'hope' in front of them was locked to the bed, mummified with several needles poking at the other party's acupoints as if being experimented with.

After suppressing themselves hard to not laugh any further, the principal was the first to spoke out again to explain.

"Duan Li, you can't move yet! Right now, a lot of your meridians and pathways had ruptured and was contaminated with your blood. These needles on your acupoints serves to contain these contaminations before the chief doctor from the imperial palace could arrive to treat you further!"

Chief doctor from the imperial palace?

A sudden thought struck at him as he quickly asked the principal, "If I remembered correctly, the Chief doctor was also a master in the arts of concoction other than the arts of medicine right?"

"En! That's right! In the whole Jiu empire, the Chief doctor, Ju Zhianhu is well-known for his mastery in concoction arts besides his doctor occupation!" answered Ling Yu by the side.

Awesome!

Duan Li's eye sparkled. He couldn't wait to learn the arts of concoction so that he could make all sorts of pills and elixirs!

The trio then conversed with Duan Li including the retelling of his adventure back to the principal and Wang Guozhi. When they listened, they couldn't help but to feel their blood boil with excitement!

As both martial artists and cultivators, they all dreamed of such an adventure that could make their adrenaline pump in the heat of danger!

Because with danger, comes great rewards!

This iron law is truest to its extent, and Duan Li's adventure was just part of the evidence for that!

They were also quite shocked to learn of Duan Li's realm that have reached all the way to the middle stage of the Foundation establishment realm in just a single day at the Eternal maze!

Such cultivation speed was out of this world and could only be described as beyond heaven-defying!

If he was left minding his own business for a year over there, would Duan Li had already become the heavens itself?

They chuckled to themselves when they thought along those lines, it would perhaps be possible if it was this fella!

...

"By the way boy, you had also told us that you obtained a legendary sword? Can we have a look?" asked Wang Guozhi as he was someone that was very fond of weapons.

Nodding his head, Duan Li willed for the sword to reveal itself.

Clink!

Duan Li's earring began to detached from his right earlobe as it expanded out to its original size.

Wonggg!!

"Hello, I am the sword of the Young master!" greeted the sword with a simple, single sentence.

Duan Li sweat for a bit as he listened to the sword greeting them with such an attitude.

This sword had the personality to look down on every single thing in the world with disdain other than Duan Li whom it was scared of for some reason. Thus, when the trio heard its greetings, being experienced, they naturally knew what that eye signal of Duan Li meant.

Fortunately, the sword doesn't appeared to be too overbearing perhaps due to being near with Duan Li. Otherwise, with its savage mouth, it would be hard to say what could have happened next.

...

After a while...

Duan Li requested for Wang Guozhi to help him borrow a few books from the library. This was because according to the principal, the Chief doctor would only arrive three days later due to his busy schedule and Duan Li himself was already out of danger. Thus, there was no emergency to this and Duan Li only had to continue and lie down to wait.

Therefore, rather than wasting his time just laying around to eventually be bored to death, he could make use of the time to learn some stuff.

Although Wang Guozhi was shocked with the amount of books Duan Li requested for him to borrow from the library, in the end, they were still delivered to him in batches every few hours.

The range of books that Duan Li was currently reading, were mainly in the field of concoction arts, related to ingredients such as herbs, plants and other materials from the body parts of numerous creatures.

It took him one whole day to completely memorize several books that could be combined together to form more than 20 thousand worth of pages!

As of now, Duan Li could perfectly identify all sorts of herbs, plants and more without needing the Identify ability of the Tetra Unsealing to do such a menial tasks for him.

Furthermore, these also helped with his cognitive and critical thinking speed, thus he could only be said to gain immense benefit from it with zero losses.

Duan Li was doing all these so that it could increase his chance to be accepted as the direct disciple of the Chief doctor later on.

After all, who wouldn't want to nurture a genius? Thus, he planned to become one!

Besides books regarding the arts of concoction, Duan Li was also interested in studying the arts of medicine. Therefore, by the end of the second day, his understanding regarding the field ofmedicine had increased basically from zero to hero. Such a terrifying degree of learning shook the trio whom witnessed Duan Li's progression first hand.

Not to mention, Duan Li had actually already understood the way to treat the hemorrhaging inside his meridians and pathways. If it was not because the method required a very dense amount of spiritual Qi that he lacked however, he could have actually treated himself already!

During the span of these two days, Duan Li had also released the cub to play around inside the academy once in awhile. It was not such a strange sight because there were many cultivators who had pets as their companions roaming around the acadrmy.

Some female students that had took a liking to Duan Li's little cub even went so far as to come to the infirmary to play with the cub and feed it.

Witnessing such a scene, Duan Li could not help but lament his fate, totally being ignored by these female students.

At least you guys should have brought me some gifts or food! I am the master of the little cub okay?

Duan Li was also thinking to release the Komodo at this stage, but in the end, he refrained from doing so. Because not only the Komodo was huge and could cause apprehensive atmosphere in the academy due to its sheer appearance, he was also worried that someone would try to attack it because the Komodo was categorized as a one star monster.

...

The third day...

Tap! Tap!

"Are you the student called Duan Li?" said an elder that wore a royal white robe with an insignia of the royal emblem on his left chest, a symbol of his status as the Chief doctor of the royal palace.

"Y-yes.. I am Duan Li!" replied Duan Li sounding a little bit nervous.

This was because the expression on the face of the elder right now was one of serious and a little bit unfriendly. Even a trace of annoyance could be seen from his face.

Fortunately, the elder didn't seem to be too haughty. "Don't move as I diagnosed your current condition first."

After a few breaths of time, this serious elder's expression slowly turned a little bitgrim.
