Chapter 415 Black Petal Sect's World

??Heath eventually got up after sitting by the three for a few minutes.

He then patted himself off before dashing off into the trees, spitting blood out from his mouth.

About 10 miles away, soaring across the tree branches were four figures that moved fast enough to look like blurs.

Jue, his two servants, and Lyrian moved with quick speed across the trees.

As the lifeless Lyrian followed in the back, Jue spoke to his lower-level Cadets.

"That is my final Mind Controlling Gu. I will need to retrieve more from the capital." Jue thought out loud.

After a few seconds, one of his accomplices spoke up, "Hey... looking at this kid. Don't you think that Gu didn't work or something?" He turned his head past his shoulder and spoke while looking at Lyrian's blank expression.

Chills ran up his spine. He couldn't help but be slightly creeped out.

"Pfft!" Jue suddenly scoffed at that moment, which seemed out of character for him.

"Listen to me carefully..." He said as the accomplices both turned toward him, all ears.

"That Gu wasn't a normal one. It was my last one, and I always save the best for last. The strongest Mind Controlling Gu at my disposal is something that not even the Sect Leader can escape, once already caught." Jue smirked.

His companions gasped in surprise.

"Well... of course... I would never do such a thing. Plus, that is only if the Gu is able to control his mind in the first place. I don't think any Gu in the world is possible of that, hahaha!" Jue laughed, causing his accomplices to awkwardly laugh alongside him.

"Anyways... the point is that after someone is controlled by the Gu, there is no sort of power in this world that can free them. These Mind Controlling Gu's are created by the Black Petal Sect specifically suing Dark Energy from the Dark Ore. No spell from the open world has figured them out yet."

Jue's tone was confident, leading his accomplices to feel more secure.

'I see... interesting.' Lyrian suddenly thought to himself at that moment. 'Good thing what I have isn't a magic spell, but rather, an infinite consciousness. Isn't that right, Gear?'

[Correct]

Minutes earlier, when the Mind Controlling Gu had first entered Lyrian's body, it attempted to take over.

However, Gear was able to override the Gu's intentions by deeming it as a poison and confining it to a certain part of Lyrian's body.

This way, the Gu couldn't control Lyrian's mind and was instead forced to become a parasite-like being inside of Lyrian's body for a temporary amount of time.

This was the same process that Gear had used on the Molten Essence when Lyrian ate the Earth Guardian's golden liquid all the way back in the entrance exam.

Currently, Lyrian has full control over his body. With Gear's help, he could even make use of the Mind Controlling Gu at any point.

However, he didn't know how it worked yet, so he decided to let it be for now.

After another few minutes of traveling, Jue leads everyone to a seemingly insignificant, unsuspecting patch of forest land.

There, Jue dropped to the ground, as did everyone else.

He walked forward and then moved to the left, then the right. He did this multiple times, sometimes jumping up, and then strafing right, left, sideways, and down.

Lyrian found this very complicated but mimicked Jue's movements to the best of his ability.

Finally, with the last sway to the right, Lyrian's surroundings completely changed.

He took one step forward and entered a brand new domain. It was an underground passageway lit up with torches.

As the others walked forward, Lyrian took a peek behind himself one more time.

Behind him, there still existed the outside world. It was as if he was standing in between a portal connecting two different realms of existence.

However, instead of the normal forest land, Lyrian saw a giant transparent maze made of a purple aura.

'A pattern... once solved, this portal opens up, but only for the person who solves it. It looks like one needs to have every single movement memorized completely to be able to solve it, as there is no way to know whether it is there or not or solve it otherwise. It's an impressive defense array.'

Lyrian thought to himself before quickly catching back up to Jue and the other two.

They soon arrived at a staircase descending downwards in a spiral motion.

Each stair was an irregularly shaped piece of giant amber that was over 10 feet in length.

After 10 minutes of walking, Lyrian arrived at the bottom of the staircase.

There, he followed Jue to an absolutely enormous opening that stretched on for seemingly miles!

A brilliant, bright, and ginormous civilization filled with buildings high and now.

Trees underground, waterfalls, and giant ponds and rivers. People flying across the underground 'sky' using giant birds and ravens.

Buildings of various sizes, shops, training houses, and much more.

It was an entire society. Sol followed Jue into the well-lit domain which was as bright as day, or even brighter--thanks to the uncountable amount of giant crystals of various colors that were found on each crevice in the wall.

They entered a busy street, where the passerby quickly greeted Jue and the others by promptly stopping whatever they were doing and stepping to the sides of the street and bowing.

Lyrian looked around and saw what seemed to be normal people. Women, the elderly, children, working men.

Horses and carriages roaming the streets, young boys running around and causing a mess.

Vendors yelling their prices at those in the streets.

Everyone was just like the normal world, except there was one difference. This was the underground kingdom, where all lived with no Sun for their entire lives.

Jue walked with his chin head high, as did the other two.

"Lyrian Theageld. Look and witness. This is the Black Petal Sect; the realm which will one day take over the entire world."
