A few hours later, Mira and the disciples made it back to the Battle Maiden Sect without any trouble. Things looked pretty much the same as they did before. Well, it would be weird if things weren't the same since only three months have passed in the outside world, unlike the 3 years that went by in the Secret Realm.

Throughout their journey back to the Sect, the disciples started talking to each other about their experiences in the Secret Realm. Maria and Celaine were no exception as there wasn't much to hide except for Kayda the Magma Dragon, and Elenei.

Mira didn't really care, but she was also a bit interested to hear about the other kinds of worlds in the Secret Realm and the more she learned, the more she understood that the Secret Realm is definitely not simple. She already knew that with how many worlds she visited during the final 3 months of their stay there, but knowing that there were even more unique places only reconfirmed her suspicions. Right now, she just felt lucky to be able to get out of there alive.

p Maria and Celaine, however, were jealous of their fellow disciples and how 'easy' they had it. Most of the other disciples were able to just sit and cultivate while picking up treasures after the initial scare when they got teleported. Either that or they were transported into easy to medium level difficulty worlds and were able to progress at a steady pace while collecting an abundance of resources.

This was nothing like Maria and Celaine's experiences in those that could be classified as 'Hell' or 'Impossible' level difficulty!

Although they complained, it seemed like Maria was having a good time sharing her experiences with the others.

Once they all made it back to the Sect, it wasn't an exaggeration to say that most of the surviving disciples felt like a weight was lifted off their shoulders and that's when they fully understood just how relieved they are to be back home and how exhausted their bodies and minds were.

"I'm sure you're all tired so before we discuss your future, why don't you all take the week off to just rest or do whatever you want. We can deal with the serious stuff after you all get a good rest. Off you go!"

Sect Master Jane smiled and waved them off when they reached the entrance of the Sect. Everyone slowly made their way towards their rooms as they all felt a wave of fatigue wash over them.

Mira was no exception as she also started to feel mentally exhausted from staying on guard for the last 3 years. She can finally let her mind and body relax a bit before going right back into training!

A few minutes later, Mira and Maria made it back to their room, and thankfully everything was exactly as they left it.

"Vulcan!"

*Arf*

Maria yelled as she ran and picked up Vulcan, her Beast Companion, who was now slightly bigger and now a Mid-Stage Rank 5 Beast. Vulcan was also extremely excited to see his Master and jumped into her arms and started whining in delight!

Mira ignored the two of them and walked into her room where she found Rhydian, her Golden Empyrean Winged Wolf Beast Companion, still sleeping in the same position she left her in. However, her aura told Mira that she had advanced and become a Late-Stage Rank 5 Beast. That's pretty much the same as herself!

Mira walked over to Rhydian and started stroking her fur as the little wolf let out a low growl in delight that its Master was finally petting her again. However, the little wolf never opened its eyes as she was still in a deep sleep, cultivating.

Mira laid down on her bed next to Rhydian with a slight smile and was about to go to sleep, but was rudely interrupted by the Phoenix in her Soul Sea.

"Ummm… Mira, what the hell kind of beast is that and why does my bloodline feel so afraid?? What the fuck did you do?!"

Elenei asked while on the verge of freaking out. She didn't know what was going on and only knew that she felt an instinctual fear towards this sleeping winged wolf, something that shouldn't even be possible! She's a Frost-Fire Phoenix, a mix between an Ice Phoenix and a Fire Dragon! Something that is already almost impossible to exist in this universe and reigns at the top of the food chain in terms of bloodline and power! How could a puny Rank 5 beast cause her to feel such fear?!?!

Mira was confused for a second before she finally understood the problem.

"Ah! You mean, Rhydian? While I wasn't 100% sure what her species was, hearing you now I think I can confirm my previous suspicions. If I'm not wrong, Rhydian should be a Golden Empyrean Winged-Wolf."

Mira said indifferently as she was too tired to care right now and just wanted to get the conversation over. However, fate has different plans in store for her.

"A Golden Empyrean Winged-Wolf?!?! Are you fucking kidding me right now, Mira?! This is no laughing matter and must be taken seriously!! There's almost no chance this creature is a Golden Empyrean Winged-Wolf! They haven't been seen in millions of years and were thought to be extinct! But there's no way this bloodline suppression is fake and if this truly is a Golden Empyrean Winged-Wolf then this is definitely not good! Not to mention you tamed the damn thing!! What the hell were you thinking?!?!"

"Haaa? What are you talking about? How was I supposed to know anything about a Golden Empyrean Winged-Wolf? Much less she hatched out of an egg! I thought she was going to be a bird or something!"

"You! You ignorant mortal! You basically painted a giant target on your back by making 'Rhydian' your beast companion! In fact, that makes things worse! If Rhydian was just your friend or companion then it wouldn't be that big of a deal, but you are basically her Master. That essentially means that once Rhydian reaches her peak, you will be able to command a being who could reign supreme in the Immortal Realm! At that time, even if all of the top Beast Clans and Sects in the Immortal World try to take down you and Rhydian, their chances would not only be slim, but their losses would be severe! That only means that once they find out you are the master of a Golden Empyrean Winged-Wolf, every Clan, Sect, cultivator, and beast will strive to hunt you down! You will be the most wanted person in the entire Universe at that point!"

Elenei slowly explained but seemed to be losing a part of her rationality the more she talked.

Mira listened to her whining but didn't really care about all this nonsense. Sure, she might be hated and wanted by every cultivator in existence, but so what? If Rhydian really will get to be that strong in the future, then it's definitely worth the risk. Plus, she's sure that if such a time ever comes, Rhydian will be the least of everybody's worries. Mira's goal is to become invincible! An existence that even the Heavens themselves can't touch! Wouldn't she be hated even more than Rhydian if someone caught wind of her goals after she reaches a certain level of strength?

"I see… Whatever set that aside for now. Why don't you tell me everything you know about Golden Empyrean Winged-Wolves?"
