Yin & Yang Pleasures of Cultivation

Chapter 297: Elder Yang



'I-I couldn't sense him at all!' 

Darcel, Aniela, and Masami all stayed completely rooted to their spots. They all brazenly gazed at the sudden appearance of this Elderly man as if they have just seen a ghost.

With their recent breakthroughs, the trio was at their utmost confidence. Their repeated breakthroughs allowed their Senses to improve beyond what they could ever imagine.

As of now, Darcel, Aniela, and Masami could easily perceive Siren Blade's Magical Aura. 

His Magical Aura was calm and still, similar to his indifferent personality. But above all, the three can perceive that Siren Blade specific tier of Magical Energy.

It was, of course, near-identical to their own. Although, Darcel, Aniela, and Masami detected that their Magical Energy has a more dense quality. 

Their Magical Energy was like a hundred miles deep ocean compared to Siren Blade's calm stream of Magical Energy.

Considering all of this, the trio assumed they could possibly sense power greater than them.

However, neither Darcel, Aniela, or Masami could detect even the slightest trace of power from this elderly man.

And as the seconds slowly trickle by, the trio realized they would never be able to perceive his realm at their current realm. 

Dissasatfication grew within Masami; curiosity swelled in Aniela's mind while Darcel regained his calm.

'To think there would be this level of power here….' Darcel mused to himself, focusing more on this Elderly man. 

In terms of appearance, this man wasn't anything special to gaze upon.

His face was full of wrinkles, showcasing his old age and his hair and beard were a light gray color. 

From just looks, this man was no different from any other old man.

However, what distinctly separates him from other old men was his unfathomable temperament. His eyes exuded a dignified aura that would tell anyone he has years of experience under his belt.

His expression was indifferent, almost aloof in a way. He seemed complete like was he's separated from any mortal problems. 

This expression may show no emotion, but it was terrifyingly intimidating. 

"Elder Yang! I didn't expect you to immediately come here." Siren Blade kept his head respectfully bowed down. 

Against Elder Yang, he dared not even breathe wrong. This was an expert that commanded respect no matter where he goes in the whole Icy Cloud Province.

Elder Yang neither responded nor even spare a glance towards Siren Blade. His eyes immediately fell on Darcel, Aniela and Masami. He bore his sights straight into the trio without any reservation.

Darcel, Aniela, and Masami attempted to keep a brave front. However, under Elder Yang's indifferent and aloof eyes, they all felt a shiver crawl down their spines. 

Those eyes were making it seem like he was staring directly into their souls.

For a few seconds, nobody made any sounds or movements. 

And when the silence was becoming suffocating for the trio, Elder Yang's spatial ring suddenly ignited. 

As items started to materialize in his hand, he finally opened his mouth to say, "Blade, there will be no need for any other extra steps. These three can become Spirit Siren Mages right now."

Elder Yang's tone was firm and resolute. There was no argument or discussion to be had. 

And after saying so, Elder Yang tossed three crismon badges and three crimson robes towards the trio.

"Ah." 

Darcel, Aniela, and Masami instinctively caught the badges and robes, not fully realizing just what was going on. 

They all trailed their eyes down at the items, immediately noticing that they held a highly similar design to Siren Blade's clothing. However, these robes and badges carried more star designs, appearing even more special than Siren Blade's. 

"E-Elder Yang?" 

Siren Blade was shocked at such a sudden decision. He kept his sights on Elder Yang and at least wanted to know why for such a hasty decision. 

In the end, he knows he has the absolute authority to do this but rarely would this ever happen even if that Mage is more special than him!

Even Darcel, Aniela, and Masami were a bit taken aback at the abruptness. 

But, in the face of everyone's confusion, Elder Yang's expression never wavered. He simply glanced at Siren Blade, telling him, "Show them to the Spirit Rank quarters. Their room is inscribed on the badge." 

Without waiting for their reactions, Elder Yang then vanished in a faint crimson flash.

Once alone, everyone blinked their eyes over that sudden encounter. 

Although it wasn't before long they all came back to their senses, and Masami immediately erupted into a loud voice.

"What the hell?! If he's one of the Elders here with that much authority, why the hell didn't he give us any explanation or anything? That was just being mysterious just for the sake of seeming like some mysterious expert!"

Even though she was legitimately taken aback by Elder Yang's unfathomable aura, Masami was still daring enough to rain down her frustrations. 

Honestly, she wouldn't even be this annoyed if they had gotten more than two-sentence from Elder Yang.

The way Elder Yang handled things reminded her too much of the high-rankings Elders in her sect. And she holds a considerable amount of resentment towards those people.

"While I can assume he's busy with other business, that indeed was too abrupt. Moreover, he obviously spied on us since he came right on time here. If he just would've spoken a little bit more then…."

Aniela sigh towards the end of her words. Previously, she already made several expectations about this Mage group before coming here. 

And it seems like her guesses are right on the money.

Not even an hour into joining this organization, and already she, Darcel, and Masami are going to cause massive waves. 

One part of Aniela was intrigued about how this will develop, while another part grew increasingly cautious over inevitable trouble.

Either way, she knows their time here won't be quiet at all. 

Darcel was the only that chose to stay quiet. In the depths of his mind, he picked up on faint permeation from Elder Yang.

Beyond just instantly granting them great titles and positions, Elder Yang most likely has something brewing for them. After all, with the phenomenon he and the girl's caused, it would be weirder if the higher-ups had no opinions at all.

At this thought, Darcel mentally prepared himself for whatever schemes these old figures have storming in their minds. 

"Haah….so it's really like this." 

Siren Blade quietly muttering, gaining the trio's attention. Shaking his head, he then continued to say, "Since it has to be like this, follow me to your quarters. In there, we have everything you need to know about our organization."

Now, Siren Blade's tone almost sounded tired, as if he just experienced several heavy loads of news. And in a way, he indeed did undergo several twists and turns in just a span of minutes.

After this, he certainly needs a long moment to himself to deeply contemplate all of these matters. 

For now, Siren Blade simply suppressed the waves in his mind, walked over towards the door, and promptly left the room.

As he left, a collective sigh exhaled from Darcel, Aniela, and Masami simultaneously. Even though so much happened at once, the tiro at least saw this as a positive direction to go into. 

"Alright, cmon. Let's get all rested up. By then, we'll have all the room to think and talk." Darcel told while walking up to the door. 

After sharing a brief glance between each, Aniela and Masami promptly followed behind him.

….

Under Siren Blade's lead, the trio was swiftly taken to the second floor of their organization. 

This place was for all the Spirit Ranked Mages within the organization. 

Darcel, Aniela, and Masami initially found it a bit incredulous that despite having far fewer Spirit Ranked Mages, they still have a whole floor dedicated to them. 

According to Siren Blade, they learned that their organization was separated into four levels.

The first level is for the thousands of normal ranked Siren Mages. These Mages realm vary from High Mages towards the Gold Mage realm. Their numbers were quite plentiful, but this building could fit them all.

Compared to cultivators building, the way Mages run there is quite different. 

They could create numerous more rooms and small paces through the application of Formation Spell Magical Marks.

While Formation Spell Magical Marks are generally used for combat, comprehending Magical Energy or any other action related situation. These Magical Marks are also perfect for daily necessities. 

The power contained inside these Magical Marks is enough to create a small yet stable pocket dimension, where most if not all rooms are made. 

At first, hearing Magical Marks had this kind of ability was certainly impressive to Darcel, Aniela, and Masami. 

However, they quickly learned these pocket dimensions are very limited.

Firstly, these pocket dimensions run solely off the Formation Spell the Magical Marks were imbued with. Meaning, these rooms will be like any ordinary room, and if the Magical Marks are even slightly ruined, the pocket dimension would collapse and immediately kill whoever may be in the room at that time.

Thankfully, these Formation Spell Magical Marks are in a perfectly secured place that's guarded by the Elders of their organization. 

With all this in mind, their structure began to make more sense to the trio.

Beyond the first level is Spirit Ranked Mages quarters. The third level is for the senior Spirit Ranked Mages, and the fourth level is for the Elders, Vice Leaders, and Leader.

Truthfully, it is a simple structure yet made highly complex by the addition of Magical Marks. 

And as Darcel, Aniela and Masami rummaged on these thoughts, they didn't even notice that Siren Blade had suddenly stopped.

Right then, Siren Blade called out to the trio, causing them to snap their attention towards him. 

"Going off from your badges, this will be you three sleeping quarters. I assume there's no issue with you three staying together?"
