Zhao Hai nodded. After hearing the little doll, he finally understood a bit. He turned to the little doll and asked, “What’s the name of the cultivator I fought against? Which sect does he belong to?”
The little doll replied, “Young master, that person is named Lu Wei, and he is a cultivator from the Five Absolute Sect. He is also an elder of the Five Absolute Sect.”
Zhao Hai frowned and asked, “What kind of sect is the Five Absolute Sect?”
The little doll explained, “The Five Absolute Sect was originally founded by a cultivator named Five Absolutes Sage. This person was exceptionally gifted; due to his poor family background, he became a monk in his childhood. Later, because of his remarkable innate talent, he was chosen by one of the most famous Buddhist sects in the cultivation realm, the Golden Light Temple, and became an outer sect disciple. Unexpectedly, his talent exceeded everyone's imagination, and after three years of cultivation, he reached the twelfth level of the body refinement stage and smoothly advanced to become a formal disciple. Five years later, he broke through to the foundation establishment stage and became an inner sect disciple. After another ten years, he successfully formed his core and became a core disciple of the Golden Light Temple. This is the general ranking division of disciples in typical cultivation sects: those who enter the sect with good innate talent can become outer sect disciples, while those with poor talent can only become miscellaneous disciples. If one can reach the ninth level of the body refinement stage within five years after entering the sect, they may be promoted to formal disciples. If one can reach the qi refinement stage within ten years of entering, they can become inner disciples. If one reaches the golden elixir stage within a hundred years, they can become core disciples. At that time, Five Absolutes Sage was known as the greatest cultivation genius of the Golden Light Temple.”
The little doll paused here and glanced at Zhao Hai, noticing he wasn't impatient. It continued, “However, later on, while carrying out a sect mission, Five Absolutes Sage was betrayed by a fellow sect member and was severely injured. Although he managed to survive, he lost all his cultivation. The person who betrayed him had a strong background within the Golden Light Temple, and ultimately Five Absolutes Sage was expelled from the Golden Light Temple.”
Zhao Hai nodded, understanding that even though this cultivator had been impressive, he had experienced betrayal and cruelty; such things could easily happen among those people.
Seeing that Zhao Hai seemed very interested, the little doll continued, “But who would have thought that after being expelled, Five Absolutes Sage encountered a noble benefactor, who was the Five Absolutes True Immortal. This person was a famous loose cultivator in the cultivation realm and practiced a technique called the Five Absolute Demon Technique. To practice this technique, one must eliminate five types of emotions: familial love, friendship, romantic love, gratitude, and righteousness. It can be said to be a truly heartless and ruthless demon art. After Five Absolutes Sage met the Five Absolutes True Immortal, it’s unknown what kind of spell the True Immortal used, but it completely healed Five Absolutes Sage's injuries, and his cultivation surpassed his previous level. Later, after the True Immortal passed away, Five Absolutes Sage began to make a name for himself in the cultivation realm. He was originally a cultivation genius and eventually mastered the Five Absolute Demon Technique to its peak, becoming a powerful practitioner in the tribulation stage. He later founded the Five Absolute Sect and became its leader, something even the Five Absolutes True Immortal had not accomplished.”
Zhao Hai nodded, realizing that Five Absolutes Sage was indeed impressive to reach such heights. He then looked at the little doll and asked, “What is Five Absolutes Sage doing now? What is the strength of the Five Absolute Sect? What is Lu Wei's status within the Five Absolute Sect?”
