After one week, Sam finally saw some results, he was at least able to resist and let the lightning energy stay within his body for a second without letting it damage him or dissipate. But that is only for the outermost lightning strike.
Even if he wants to move inside, there is actually no chance for him to do so, because the time to visit the Palace of Inheritance is here.
He is looking forward to meeting these people from the previous time, those that had tattoos on their backs are just like him and Arman, from what Ling Tian said, they would become stronger only after the Nascent stage and he shouldn't take them so lightly.
But he really wants to see if it is the truth.
At this moment, while he is making his way towards the Space gate leading to the Beast faction, all the other candidates in the major powers are gathering near the entrances.
Particularly, those candidates who are able to acquire tokens are extremely excited for two reasons, one of them is that they can go into the Palace again and another one is that Sam is barred from entry through the thunder god temple.
The thunder god temple just banned him from entering without any rhyme or reason just for the sake of it.
Since they are the only ones who are at the top of the world, they are the ones who make the rules, so they can justify themselves for being petty.
The major powers all wanted to do something against Sam, but they are unable to retaliate, so they have to deal with this no matter what.
The candidates couldn't forget how Sam sold the battle techniques previously. At that time, their faces are blurred. But Sam's overbearing nature is not something that could be easily hidden.
In fact, he was quickly known among themselves, because the young talents of the major powers all have interactions before.
They are familiar with each other and to be honest every knew who got what in the previous palace of inheritance.
The same is true in the Beast faction.
In the previous time, the candidates of the beast faction are not the top-notch experts. The thunder god temple is the only one who sent their top-ranked talents, as for the rest, they sent only the secondary ones and that is mainly because the thunder god temple pissed off the Avatar Sanchez and thus they were all captured to be taught a lesson.
That is why the thunder god temple didn't cut any slack, they sent their best of the best.
But for the rest of the major powers, they didn't take that risk and didn't want to risk their top talents either, but since they also understood that the other entity is a stronger being, they sent the secondary elites who are just raising in their positions and coincidentally the people who are chosen just like Arman and Sam are all just raising in their ranks and were selected to go to this place.
It is almost as if the whole this planned and it should be set in this place. Sam is sure that if the objective given to the rest of these chosen ones is the same as the one given to him by Ling Tian, that is to become stronger and reach the peak of the world, then they wouldn't take unconventional routes like him.
They would definitely reach the major powers to reach their objectives.
Anyway, the appearance of all twelve candidates in the first palace of inheritance might not be a pure coincidence, it could probably be some kind of premeditation but Sam doesn't know.
Sam had all these thoughts in his mind, after he crossed the Space gate and appeared in the Beast faction, Sai is waiting for him.
He led Sam to his room for the temporary stay.
"There are still two hours for the Palace of inheritance to open. How are you going to enter it?"
Sai asked.
The situation is a bit tricky at the moment, all the major powers acted pettily to stop him from coming to the thunder god temple, but it showed up in this place out of nowhere, then there is no way they could answer the remaining powers.
Sam's Space gates are still a secret.
The business with the Beast faction is also a secret.
The recent cleansing of the Beast faction made them lose the spies of all the other powers and things are extremely tight. There is no leak of information. Although the beast faction is extremely weak at this moment, when they counted the strength of the lower level cultivators, they are at the moment the cleanest major power without any moles and spies.
Sam doesn't want to break these secrets at least not yet.
He should maintain this secret and for that, there is only one way, he has to enter the palace but none shall recognize him.
Sam changed into a new set of black clothes and wrapped his face with black cloth. Only his eyes are visible outside.
But that is not all, he etched the concealment formation on the cloth and even enchanted it with a spirit to make sure that he stayed concealed all the time.
He willed and the token which was in his spiritual consciousness appeared in his hand.
Sai left the place and went away, an hour later Sam sneaked out and came to the entrance of the Beast faction. This is the main entrance used by the people of the Beast faction territory.
He was stopped by the guardian and Sam showed him the token. The guardian is an elder of the faction and knew that the token is special, so he immediately went to get the higher-ups.
An old man came, he is the Grand Elder of the faction, whose son troubled Philip, he took a look at the token and then asked.
"Where did you get this?"
Sam spoke in a different voice, it is easy for him to change it with the skills from his previous life. He used that in many assassinations.
"I am a stray cultivator and was traveling through the world when I chanced upon some ruins, the will of a very strong cultivator is stored there along with this token, and that person's will guided me here."
The Grand elder frowned, he very much wanted to grab the token, but the powerful figure who is in charge of the palace laid strict rules that the token holders must not be attacked.
Sam is already in their territory, so if he attacked things would get tricky.
He returned the token and said. "Follow me."
Whatever Sam said might be true but there is a possibility that it is a lie and he might have hidden somethings about how he got the token, but they couldn't do anything to him since he is already here.
In fact, they couldn't do anything to Sam is he was present here, that is why the thunder god temple directly issued a ban by not allowing him to come to their territory.
To prevent the Avatar from interfering.
Sam followed him and soon they are in the hunting grounds, where a lot of people are gathered. Many people are there and many of them are only at Great realm cultivation.
Only a handful of cultivators are of the Nascent stage and Sai is also standing there. The grand elder whispered something and they talked for a bit.
Then he came back and said to Sam.
"Since you came to this place and able to obtain the token, then you are eligible to enter. Whatever you obtain in that place is yours and no one would take it away from you."
Sam clasped his hands in respect as he bowed his head slightly.
Soon, there is a rumbling sound from the cave and the palace of inheritance finally opened.
The first people to go inside are obviously the juniors at the Great realm and then only the Nascent stage cultivators are allowed to enter.
The people from the Beast faction are only four people.
One of them is in the initial stage of the Nascent Realm, the remaining three are in the middle-stage. The three of them are obviously the senior members of the faction and this newly acquired member might be the one who visited last time and that means, he is also one of the chose just like Sam and Arman.
Sam couldn't recognize all the others directly, but the others could identify him because he beat the crap out of all of them and thunder god temple didn't keep it a secret they learned about his name, but he doesn't have any connections in the major powers, at least in the same level.
But he is not in a hurry to find out. Since he found one of them now, he can find others later.
The young man also looked at Sam and sized him up, his spiritual sense swept over Sam's face and Sam's face became colder. This is obviously a rude thing to do as they met for the first time, the young man looked at Sam and his expression and said.
"What are you looking at? You want a piece of me?" He is obviously arrogant and particularly when he found out that Sam is a stray cultivator.
