Early in the morning, there was a youth staring out at the wet concrete. It rained the night before, and the ground was still slightly wet. The girl was wearing a bright smile as her expressions changed every now and then.
A small tear dripped down her face, she quickly wiped it off before getting up.
This youth was named, Liu Lihua. She had waited multiple years for her master to come back. She still remembers the day, when her master Zuhn told her he was going to be away for a while.
She knew her master was strong, and that he needed to leave to get stronger. Though, she didn't think it was going to take this long. It's been ten years since Zuhn left.
White Roses as a sect as changed, everyone and everything in the sect changed. New people joined over the years, powerful ones at that. Liu Lihua herself achieved the rank Martial Sky Lord. Making her one of the most powerful people on the Ziom continent.
Around five years after their master and leader left, White Roses were put under the control of Liu Lihua and the rest of the disciples. The roundtable, only having two members were still completely loyal to Zuhn.
No one knew of their existence besides the two members and Zuhn. They still kept in the shadows, becoming respected elders in the sect. White Roses grew from a small number of members to a grand number.
White Roses now as reached four hundred thousand members in total. White Roses had a total of 380,000 outer core disciples, 19,000 inner disciples. The other one thousand represented the original members of White Roses that have survived to this point.
White Roses have fought with multiple other sects, gaining tons of resources and land during the fights. Even though White Roses doesn't have their leader, only the original members of the sect know the real reason their master won't show his face.
On the Ziom continent, White Roses has been formally known as a 3.5 Star sect. The meaning of a Star as changed over the years, making it harder to become a one-star sect.
The requirements to become a rank one-star sect were extreme. The sect needed to have someone that was at least Gold Ranked to become a One Star Ranking.
Other than having someone that is at least Gold Rank, the core disciples need to beat special trials.
Liu Lihua walked out of the core building and made it to the inner core's walls. Looking out she saw multiple students running around. Some students were practicing sword arts with each other.
Liu Lihua was very happy with the result of the White Roses Sect. The name White Roses is known throughout the whole continent. When people hear the name, it makes their whole body tremble in fear.
"I miss you..."
Small tears rolled down Liu Lihua's face.

A couple of years?!?!
Zuhn looked at the man in the suit with a cold stare. Even though he couldn't move because of the pressure on him, he was pretty mad. What felt like a couple of months, Zuhn has really been gone for multiple years.
"Ho-How long?"
Zuhn asked with a shocked expression as he spoke.
The man in the suit looked back with no emotion.
"Around ten years...Also, don't you know my name? It's De Chen."
Zuhn nodded at De Chen before he calmed himself down. Moving to a sitting position.
De Chen stood up and looked at the youth beside him then back at Zuhn.
"Well, I can't believe I'm doing this."
De Chen took a long breath before he stuck out his hand and pointed it at the youth teen next to him. A bright red glow started to form at the tip of his fingers.
The young teen let out a small scream before the glowing light engulfed her body completely. Once the glow started to fade, small bits of flesh remained along with small bits of clothing.
De Chen stood motionless for a couple of breaths before turning his sights to Zuhn. Zuhn took a long breath before looking De Chen in the eyes.
Zuhn didn't notice this before, But De Chen now had bright golden eyes. They were pure and smooth, not having anything that was affecting them.
"Well, I was originally going to have you take another two trials. Though, the chances of you beating them were very low. So low, that I didn't want to wait another million years for someone else to come and try the trial. "
Zuhn was quite confused about what was going on, but he kept quiet he kept his eyes glued on De Chen. De Chen started to create a bright purple light in his hands.
While the purple light was getting bigger, De Chen started to speak to Zuhn.
"It's been a fun trip, I've been living this life for a little bit over thirty million years. Lots have happened, it was quite fun. Though I will have to say, this Ancient Trial was the best one. You were also the closest one to ever almost completely the Trial."
The pressure around Zuhn's body started to slowly release. Slowly letting Zuhn to move his body around.
"As you may not know, I'm the key holder for the end of the trial. Meaning I decide if you complete or fail the trial. Now, of course, I could kill you on the spot and you would fail the trial. Or… I can have you beat the trial, rewarding you with countless rewards and privileges."
Zuhn lowered his head slightly to show his respect to De Chen. With an amazing loud whisp, the light covered every inch of De Chen's body. De Chen didn't scream or anything, he stood completely still. Burning flesh could be smelled throughout the whole room.
Once the light faded away, all that was left was De Chen's ashes and a couple of equipment left behind. Zuhn moved from his original spot and collect multiple of the treasures that were on the ground.
*Boom*
The room started to shake violently, causing Zuhn to almost fall over. Above the building, a large eye came out of the ceiling. Looking down, the eye saw Zuhn.
Zuhn couldn't move in fear of the eye. He let out small short breaths trying to control his breathing. Each time he looked at the eye, it felt like the eye was getting closer and closer.
After a couple of breaths, the eye disappeared and the scene around the Trial came to a peaceful ending.
"Congratulations."
Zuhn quickly turned around.
There was an old man looking at Zuhn. The man was wearing a black robe, the man also had semi-long white hair. From the looks of the man, Zuhn thought for sure that this man was the owner of the Ancient Trial.
Zuhn respectively bowed down then looked at the man. The man didn't move after Zuhn bowed, just kept his eyes on Zuhn.
"Anway, You are quite young from the looks of it. You've been in this Trial for a small number of years. With your current cultivation, it doesn't really matter how long you last. Though, to a mortal, this long would mean a whole lot to them. Anyway, enough with this. You passed the trial, you now gained the access to come back to this realm once every ten years. Inside this realm will be a huge amount of mysterious and rare resources that will help you cultivate."
The room around Zuhn started to slowly disappear. Before the room completely disappeared it stopped.
"Ah, before I forget. We moved your body from your original position. Meaning you won't be waking up in your room. Also for a bit of fun, you are around 26 years old in the mortal world."
All of the walls and the parts of the castle completely disappeared as Zuhn was tossed back into his original world.
***
*Boom*
A large thunderous explosion came from the hall where Zuhn was when he left for the Ancient Trial. Liu Lihua heard the explosion and rushed over to room along with multiple elite guards and disciples.
When they got to the room, black ashes swallowed the room. The walls looked like they were melting off, along with everything else in the room.
"He's dead..."
***
Outside of White Roses Sect in a local forest was a young youth. The boy didn't look older than 18.
The man moved his hands and checked his condition before getting up. This man was, of course, Zuhn, Zuhn looked quite different from when he left the world.
Ahead of Zuhn, there was a large metal wall. The wall had a bright red and white Flag. In the middle of the flag was a White Rose will small amounts of blood on the rose.
Zuhn smiled after seeing the flag.
'White Roses Sect...'
'Why do I… Look so different?'
"Zuhn, long time no see!"
Zuhn stepped back at the sound of the voice. He then looked around multiple times trying to find out where the voice came from.
Suddenly, Zuhn figured out who the voice was.
"Maximus..."
"Oh! You still remember my name. That's great, it's been quite some time. After I left you in the Ancient Trial. Looks like you have gone up in cultivation..."
Zuhn nodded his head. The two talked for multiple hours about what has been going on in both worlds. Zuhn kept out about being able to return to the Ancient Trial because he wanted to see what it was about before he said anything.
Zuhn learned from Maximus that White Roses was one of the Top 3 sects on the Ziom continent. Zuhn also learned that his five disciples still control the sect.
When Zuhn heard that four hundred thousand members were in his sect, he almost fell over from the news. He coughed a couple of times before smiling brightly.
When Zuhn came back from the Ancient Trial, his mind filled up with multiple spells and tricks that the old man gave him.
'Cultivation Manipulation - Has the ability to change one's cultivation to anything lower than it's own.'
'Modified Dark Fireball - A basic spell turned into an extremely strong spell. The Modified Dark Fireball, can do wide area of damage. Anyone within 8 meters will take fire damage. While anyone inside three meters will die if they are under the cultivation rank of Martial Sky Realm.'
When Zuhn noticed the Modified Dark Fireball, he couldn't believe how powerful the spell was.
'Water Jet - A simple stream of water, with enough pressure, can do slight damage to an enemy. Great against fire attribute cultivators.'
'Invisible Energy Forcefield - Can defend any attack from anyone below Martial Sky Emperor. Can be used once every 24 hours.'
Lastly, on the list was another Forcefield.
'Simple Energy Forcefield - A forcefield that will be on one's body all the time. The Forcefield can defend against any attack from someone below Martial Sky Realm.'
When Zuhn saw that he can defend against anyone under Martial Sky Realm, he got a little bit excited. Reading closer into the skill, he found out that it didn't cost him anything.
Besides the spells, he learned a new word.
'Mana - Needed to cast spells.'
"Maximus, Do you know anything about Mana?"
"Of Course! You need mana to cast any time of spell. Didn't you know this?"
"Nope..."
"Oh… Well, let me see how much mana you have. For your cultivation, you should have around 40 ish mana."
Zuhn felt a small prick on his left arm.
"W-What!"
Zuhn heard Maximus yell in his head.
"What is it?"
Maximus didn't speak for several minutes. Zuhn kept asking what caused Maximus to scream.
"You… You have 300 mana..."
"300?"
Zuhn didn't know much about mana, but he knew that he should have around 40ish around his cultivation base. This shocked Zuhn slightly but shocked Maximus much more.
***
One Day Later
Zuhn switched his form and made his body look a lot different. Changing his body was one of Zuhn's main goals. Zuhn wanted to check out White Roses and see how they have progressed.
Zuhn now had bright white hair, he also had blue eyes with a small hind of gold in them. He was quite muscular and moved his cultivation base to Peak Of Gold.
Liking his appearance, Zuhn started to walk to the front gates of The White Roses Sect.
