CHAPTER 285 - A PLAN OF ACTION

Noah looked at the sight of the Sect Master of the Profound Astral Sect showing extreme goodwill towards the disciple that would soon be leaving their sect to traverse the stars to join a cause for something greater. Noah’s heart remained calm as his face showed extreme emotions, his voice ringing out dramatically in the Ancestral Hall.

"This disciple will always remember the favors of the Profound Astral Sect!"

The words were the key to open the floodgates of happiness as this was the only thing that the Elders and Sect Leader were looking for, an acknowledgment that this disciple would provide them backing once he obtained a place in the Celestials’ ranks!

"Haha good! Now go and prepare. We will modify one of our small vessels to protect you as you traverse through space."

Noah nodded his head as he recalled the first mission he was given by the Celestial Grandmaster- to arrive at the Celestial Star safely and by any means necessary!

He was only a ’cultivator’ at the Saint Realm, and shouldn’t have been able to easily travel through the void of space without quickly suffocating, yet his first mission was to get past this issue and successfully arrive for him to be considered a full-fledged disciple.

He could complete this mission a couple of ways, and one of the easiest would be to use a small vessel that was powered by the essence of a Void Realm being in the form of Spirit Stones that his Profound Astral Sect would even provide for him!

Of course, with the sub-abilities in the [Lesser Cthulhu] skill tree, even at Saint Rank, traversing through space was not a problem for him, and he would not even need to expend energy while he did it. But he would be playing along with the normal and ingenious means that a cultivator would use in order to safely arrive at the extremely dangerous location that was the Celestial Star.

Noah had been thinking very deeply about this invitation to become a Celestial Disciple, which provided the amazing opportunity of allowing him to infiltrate these extremely dangerous enemies as one of their own.

He held many ideas on how he could possibly match the Celestials, but what better way was there to do it than taking down your enemies from the inside?

It would be extremely perilous though, and he would be walking on a very tight rope. He had to prepare extensively before he even stepped foot into that dangerous star. The first phase of these preparations was this Absolute Space Technique of the Profound Astral Sect that was just handed to him on a literal platter, along with an abundant amount of refined [Cores]that ranged from Phantasmal to Saint which the cultivators called Spirit Stones.

He made the technique that would allow him to escape any situation where space was locked down and no teleportation was permitted his goal when he returned to the World of Cultivation, and he had successfully achieved it.

But this would only be used in the worst-case scenarios, when everything had broken down and he could do nothing but escape. When it came to this new path that led to the den of the Celestials, he had to obtain covert techniques that could counteract the mysterious techniques of the Celestials!

He had to be absolutely sure that when his body landed on that Celestial Star, the terrifying powerhouses situated all over would only see him as nothing more than a genius cultivator with a lot of potential.

When his thoughts came towards this road, only a single image popped in his mind.

The Pureblood Vampyre, Prince Cassius! Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

Cassius had been able to evade the detection of the powerful observing Celestial Grandmaster while he killed his disciples through the use of a mysterious skill that Noah would only be able to find in the Vampyre’s homeworld, the Underworld.

So before he even went near the Celestial Star, he would first pay a visit to the Prime World that held beings which were situated in the Light Expanse where Celestials controlled, and yet they were hidden enemies of the Celestials.

He would go there to obtain more information about the Celestials and the powers that opposed them, as well as use the chance to learn the stupendous skills of the Vampyres that allowed them to escape the detection of Celestials right under their nose.

Many plans flowed in Noah’s mind as there were also a few other things he had to do before he set off on a brand new adventure. He turned to his smiling ’father’, Elder Baldwin, who was shaking emotionally, and left the Ancestral Hall with him as the Elders and Sect Leaders began to buzz with discussions for the future. It was a bright atmosphere as at this moment in time, the future of the Profound Astral Sect looked extremely bright!

The emotional Elder Baldwin continued to look at the ’Crixus’ in front of him as he saw the young man turn and speak to him as they flew back to their Pill Pavillion Mountain.

"Father, I want to undergo closed cultivation for at least a few weeks as I prepare. I want to be at my best before I begin traversing through space to go towards the Celestial Star."

The proud father looked at his son as he nodded emotionally and said,

"I’ll make sure not a single being bothers you in your cultivation abode. Take as much time as you need, and only come out when you are ready! I’ll make sure the Sect Leader prepares for you the best Interstellar Ship to guarantee your safety."

Father and son looked at one another with tears in their eyes as they came to an understanding, with Noah ignoring the buzzing disciples on the Pill Pavillion Mountain as he went inside his Cultivation Abode and watched the ancient cavern door close behind him.

The emotional and proud face instantly wiped away as it turned calm and calculating, letting out light breaths as he finally got a break from being surrounded by powerful beings on all sides.

The stupendous set of events that led to a Celestial Grandmaster sending him an invitation that at the same time didn’t feel like an invitation played in his mind as he breathed out once again and calmed himself.

He was already making plans on top of plans on how he could handle the many possibilities that could come out of this as he sat down. He would take things step by step, and do what he could do for now.

The thing that he could do now...was to enjoy the success of obtaining the Absolute Technique that even the Devilish Time Unveiler was not given access to when he was still a member of the Profound Astral Sect.

There were many secrets and behind the scenes movements when it came to the Devilish Time Unveiler and the Profound Astral Sect, but none of this mattered for now as he had already obtained what he wanted.

He wouldn’t delve into the politics of how the being he had seen in the devoured memories who had hunted down and heavily injured the Devilish Unveiler until the schemer faked his death was actually the current Sect Master of the Profound Astral Sect. There was no time or luxury to dwell on all this information at this point in time, as a whole new path had already opened itself up for him.

The words of the Sect Master indicated that these exquisite treasures were obtained from the Letalis Expanse where the powerful Ancient Races resided, but that was also a subject and an adventure for a whole other time as at this current moment, Noah focused on the pristine book situated on top of the silver plate as he placed his hands on it and watched it disappear into particles of light.
