Chapter 1172: Chapter 1172: Clearing Suspicions_1

Although he passed the examination, Peter Brown knew in his heart that the suspicions about him had not been completely removed; his cultivation was still a point of doubt. If he could quickly advance to the Immortal Realm, then those suspicions might truly be lifted.

Confined to this room day after day, not even Benjamin Woods and Huxley Brown were allowed to enter. Given several bottles of elixirs, Peter didn’t need to think too hard to understand that they were waiting for him to recover his cultivation.

After all, Leo White had been at the Immortal Realm rank before his fall. It should be relatively easy for someone to recover their former strength in such a scenario, provided they had enough elixirs. Now, they had handed him a few bottles of elixirs, clearly to see how long it would take for him to recover.

However, whether it was his storage bag or the elixirs provided, there were no Breaking Barrier Pills inside. Without the Breaking Barrier Pills, if he could naturally recover with such elixirs, that would prove his fall in cultivation was genuine.

Without any investigation, Peter knew that everyone was watching him. If he couldn’t recover in a very short time, he believed he would face endless troubles.

Peter had even checked the storage bag he received from Leo White upon acquiring it, which had contained a bottle of leftover Breaking Barrier Pill. Yet, now the storage bag lacked that bottle of medicine. He had searched himself, but also didn’t find any such pills on his person.

Fortunately, he had already placed all of his storage bags in the Ruyi Furnace a while ago; otherwise, it really would be hard to solve this puzzle!

Using Divine Sense to scan his surroundings, Peter knew that with his current level of Divine Sense, he could not detect what was happening. He then turned his attention to the Ruyi Furnace within his Elixir Sea.

Throughout his journey, Peter had indeed eliminated quite a few people and collected numerous storage bags. Of course, in order to upgrade, Peter had purchased many items before coming to this mining area, including Breaking Barrier Pills.

At that time, Peter had thought that since no one knew when they would return from the mine or whether it would be possible to buy Breaking Barrier Pills there, he would waste time if he reached a critical point in his Inner Qi and lacked the necessary elixirs to upgrade. Thus, he had bought a few and carried them on his body.

Only now did he realize how prescient that purchase had been.

Since everyone was secretly observing, it was time to upgrade!

With this in mind, Peter did not wish to wait any longer. Entering the Immortal Realm a day earlier would be beneficial, as the true cultivation in the Immortal Realm began at that level.

Being in the middle stage of Peak Ascension, Peter took several bottles of elixirs out of his storage bag and deliberately consumed them one by one.

He guessed that Divine Sense from outside was monitoring him. Peter wanted to show everyone that he was recovering his cultivation, not making a breakthrough.

After consuming one bottle of elixirs, Peter distinctly felt his cultivation entering the late stage of Peak Ascension.

Then, after another bottle, his cultivation had reached the level of complete perfection.

Recalling that Leo White’s immortal root required four types of elixirs to be effective, Peter consumed another type of elixir, which of course, he had transferred to the Ruyi Furnace.

At that moment, Peter also took out the Breaking Barrier Pill from the Ruyi Furnace and merged it into the energy of his Elixir Sea.

Immense Inner Qi was being generated. Peter did his best to maintain his composure, and under his intentional suppression, his body underwent earth-shattering changes.

A soft sound emitted, and then Peter distinctly felt every acupoint in his body open up.

An endless stream of Celestial Energy surged towards Peter.

Immortal Realm!

He strived to control his expressions, presenting an indifferent demeanor to those witnessing his breakthrough.

What Peter didn’t know was that not far from his location, Harry White and the elders were using their Divine Sense to monitor him.

When Peter had entered the Immortal Realm, the eyes of the elders reflected a tinge of complexity.

After a while, one of them said, "He didn’t use the Breaking Barrier Pill; it seems there’s no problem."

"We’ve been monitoring the consumption of elixirs; he indeed hasn’t used the Breaking Barrier Pill. The upgrade seemed natural, and I think there is no issue."

"Considering the amount of elixirs consumed, it’s appropriate. Indeed, these types of elixirs are necessary for recovery. I agree that he’s clear."

One after another, they began to express their agreement.

Head Elder said, "Various tests have shown this young man is a True Master and there’s no deception involved. Let’s put this matter to rest."

Harry White snorted, "Just hope that some people won’t remain skeptical."

Some of the elders blushed, and one of them said, "After all, it’s the Sect Leader’s Ring, which everyone values highly. Helping you validate it is also beneficial. Now we can confirm there’s nothing wrong with your son."

Harry White said, "Even if someone were to impersonate him, they couldn’t possibly replicate all the unique marks of the person being impersonated in such a short time. I’ve already checked that thoroughly, and there’s indeed no problem."

"Old Harry, your son is too precious. I think it’s best to send him back to the Sect. If there’s another mishap, no one will be able to save him," said another elder.

With a snort, Harry White asked, "So, what does everyone think now?"

The elders glanced at each other, and the head one spoke, "Harry, you can’t really blame everyone. Better safe than sorry. Besides, if someone had really impersonated your son, that person would be your arch-enemy, right? Getting to the bottom of it is a good thing. Everyone, from now on, we should no longer doubt Leo White. This young man has proven himself to be genuine."

"Indeed, everyone has observed secretly. If it were an impersonation, some symptoms would definitely appear. His entire condition shows no issues at all. I concur that he is genuine," another elder agreed.

They nodded in succession.

Harry White said, "What if, with so many participating in the validation, the boy never came out and hid in the mine instead?"

"Our Demon Beasts have arrived, Old Harry, one final check — we need the beast to sniff him again. After that, if there’s no problem, this matter will be settled once and for all. That’s settled then," said an elder.

Having no choice, Harry White acquiesced, "Very well, after that’s done, I’ll send him back to the Sect."

All present nodded their agreement.

Harry White didn’t object to the idea of the beast sniffing, considering it was a critical matter and if it offered another layer of validation, he was willing. He was just seeking to secure as many benefits as possible for his son.
