Chapter 565


    Even though he mastered the basics of the Eye of Insight, he still needed a rich imagination and huge


    amounts of practice if he wanted to use it proficiently.


    It was understandable that he would need a lot of practice.


    Through tens of thousands of times of hard practice, Caspian could now unleash the Water Shade


    technique in the blink of an eye.


    The Eye of Insight was no exception.


    If he wanted to be able to wield it with ease, he would need repeated training as well.


    Caspian would have no problem in terms of his perseverance in that aspect.


    As for a rich imagination, since Caspian wanted to use the technique for investigation or even spying


    purposes, he needed to ce the eyeballs formed from flesh and blood in well-concealed ces that


    would not affect its effectiveness.


    Imagine if someone saw an eyeball staring at him from a piece of wood close by.


    One did not need to be an idiot to know that there was something wrong with that eyeball.


    However, if the eye could be disguised, for example, by hiding it in a pile of fruits, it would not be so


    easily discovered.


    Caspian led soldiers into battle in the past so he knew how toy traps and hide his tracks.


    Now, as he put these ns together, idea after idea kept popping up in his head.


    Through that point, even though ordinary people were not as strong as cultivators, they were equal or


    could even surpass them in terms of intelligence.


    Caspian integrated his experience with the power he mastered to be more powerful.


    For the next couple of days, Caspian and Maya continued to rush on their journey.


    After they entered North Earlington, there were visibly more cultivators on the road.


    They came from various sects of all sizes.


    Some of them were family cultivators and there was no shortage of rogue cultivators.


    Even though these people were not qualified to take part in the nation’s official religion election, to


    cultivators, the event was a great opportunity to observe and learn cultivation methods and spells from


    the six most powerful sects of the country.


    It would be a huge boon if one could learn from the event.


    After all, there have been cases of cultivators in the past who gained insight from thepetition


    between disciples of the sixrgest sects and became stronger.


    They did so well that the sects even made an exception and admitted them after the age of sixteen.


    Even if one did not gain anything, the nation’s official religion election was Earlington of Efrax and the


    neighboring counties’rgest gathering of cultivators.


    It was an honor to be able to be part of it.


    Since the capital of Earlington of Efrax is situated at North Earlington, to some extent, North Earlington


    was also the political, economic, and cultural center of the whole country.


    That was why Caspian realized after arriving there that it was much more prosperous here than he


    imagined.


    There were many forests in South Earlington and many mountains in the north.


    Even so, after entering North Earlington, Caspian found that even in extremely mountainous areas,


    there were wide and t government roads and post houses along the way.


    Even in the remotest ces, these post houses were sturdier and more spacious than those at the


    border of South Earlington.


    The post houses near the border of South Earlington were more akin to shacks made of nks and


    mud than a post house.


    Once they arrived at North Earlington, Caspian and Maya reverted to being treated like disciples of the


    Heavenly Stars Sect Caspian could now acutely sense how much attention the disciples of the six


    great sects received in Earlington of Efrax.


    No matter where he and Maya were, they garnered a lot of attention.


    Ordinary people looked at them with eyes filled with respect.


    Other cultivators looked at them with some admiration and awe.


    No matter who they were, other people would speak to them respectfully.


    Once Caspian and Maya revealed their identities, no one else dared to pick a fight with them.


    Their Heavenly Stars Sect robes were their travel pass.


    They arrived at the capital on the sixteenth of July without any obstacle.


    Looking from a distance, Caspian thought that the city was like a dragon holding the earth.


    It looked ancient, grand, and majestic.


    He could even see the city faintly up in the sky, emerging among golden light where it connects to the


    heavens.


    “The capital of Earlington of Efrax is many times more magnificent than Salleria.” Caspian could not


    stop himself from mumbling to himself when he saw that sight.


    The feeling of awe intensified as they entered through the city walls.


    The great sense of history emanating from the city wall itself was enough to strike fear in one’s heart.


    Caspian and Maya soon met up with the designated Heavenly Stars Sect disciple who was sent to


    receive them.


    Caspian met the disciple who greeted them once before, Noah Abbott.


    It was also Noah who told Caspian to seek out Elder Wesley when he went to Darnley Valley in the


    past.


    Back then, Elder Wesley gave Caspian some advice.


    So, it was natural that they could make conversation when they met again that time.


    Back then, Caspian was only an apprentice disciple.


    Now he was an outer disciple just like Noah and also representing Heavenly Stars Sect for a spot in the


    nation’s official religion election.

    Noah looked at Caspian admiringly.


    Through Noah’s exnation, Caspian and Maya learned that they were the first to arrive in the capital.


    The others would arrive the next day.


    Even though the nation’s election was meant to be on the eighteenth of July, which was the day after


    tomorrow, the realpetition would be held in seven days on the twenty-fifth of July.


    Even though Caspian and Maya were early, it did not matter.


    An extra day could be used to familiarize themselves with their environment.


    They also learned from Noah that even though the election was said to be held in the capital, the real


    ce where the cultivators would rest andpete was outside the capital.


    “Where is it?” asked Maya curiously.


    Noah pretended to be mysterious and said, “Why don’t you take a guess?”


    Maya blinked her eyes but could not figure it out, so she turned to look at Caspian pleadingly.


    Caspian was deep in thought for a moment.


    He recalled the scene back when they were far away from the capital then smiled and looked from


    Maya to Noah, then pointed up into the sky.


    “The sky?” Maya instantly understood and looked up into the sky, but all she saw were white clouds


    and nothing out of the ordinary.


    Just as she felt puzzled, Noah said in amazement, “As expected of Junior Montgomery.


    You guessed right.


    The ce we’ll be heading to is the sky directly above the city.”


    “But there’s nothing there…” Maya blinked her eyes but before she finished speaking, she immediately


    figured it out.


    “It’s a formation!”


    “Not bad.” Noah smiled as he nodded.


    “This year, all the cultivators here for the nation’s election include those from the sects in Earlington of


    Efrax, the family disciples, rogue cultivators, and even cultivators from the neighboring countries


    including Ucror.


    To prevent any unintended incidents since there are so many cultivators all gathered in one ce, they


    ced countless formations over the entire city.”


    “Of course, our Heavenly Stars Sect is in charge of at least ny percent of these formations.” Noah


    looked extremely proud as he said thatst sentence.
