Life After Prison by Silencieux novel Chapter 1642

It stunned Severin for a second. He then said, "Master-uncle, you're giving me a lot of pressure. I'm sure there is at least one disciple among the 2400 people who are eligible to enter the secret realm that is stronger than me. Why don't you ask a level nine saint to do this task? I'll be lucky if I can become a level eight saint in less than two months.

Wuhlrict smiled and said, "Take it. I trust you and your ability. I don't feel safe entrusting this thing to someone else. Your mission is to search for the miniature black tower where everyone else has only one aim which is to search for treasures. Nevertheless, it is a good thing too if the twelve Hall Masters accidentally found the miniature black tower."

"Alright. I can already feel how much weight the pressure is." Severin smiled bitterly.

"Remember to keep the function of the miniature black tower a secret. We don't want other first-tier sects to know about it and try to steal it from us. Before we find the miniature black tower, this should remain a secret," Wuhlrict emphasized.

After a deep thought, he said, "I will tell the rest of the disciples to help locate the miniature black tower too but I will not tell them the actual usage of it. They will only know it is an important treasure. This secret stays within everyone here."

After Severin and his group of people left, the Third Elder frowned. "Mister Wuhlrict, I know your senior's disciple is gifted with great talent and he is quite strong. But he is just a level seven saint for now. Leveling is not easy in the saint stages. Even if he takes the fourth-grade low-rank alchemical pill, I don't think he's going to become a level nine saint within two months. Just how safe are you to entrust the Soul Compass to him?"

Another guardian also voiced out his thoughts, "I can understand you wish to take care of Severin and his people. I don't have a problem with that because he is your senior's disciple and a fourth-grade alchemist. But I think the Soul Compass is safer being in the hand of a level nine saintman or saintwoman such as Kara Tapia."
