THE REBIRTH OF A GENIUS. CREATOR/DESTROYER

Chapters 396. Occasions

Back to Sam's town.

Arc is still in the meeting room with Sam. He wanted to persuade Sam not to push too far, but he felt that his words made sense, but he quickly sunk into thoughts about his own weakness.

If he was really strong, he should have been able to not care about the entire situation of the great association at all and let Sam do as he wished.

The tower was indeed arrogant for their own good. They control a lot of things in society.

And all of that comes from this association. His father tried to free the empire from the influence of the central continent. He did not like being subordinate to the thunder god temple.

But he died of old age. Cultivators would not have children when they were in their twenties, with a breakthrough past the Nascent stage, their lifespans changed and they had a completely different view of their youth.

A transcendent will stay in his youth for more than a century.

Arc also wanted to try his best to get out from the influence of the thunder god temple.

But for that, he had to reach Perfect realm. With all his abilities, all he could achieve was a mid-level Transcendent Peak.

He saw an improvement, but he was unable to find himself breaking through any faster.

But is just breaking through that realm enough? He doesn't know. Because the weakest head of the main force was a perfect mid-level realm cultivator.

Even if he reached the early stage, he would not stand a chance against the thunder god temple.

As he was drifting in his mind, the sound of a small knock brought him back.

Sam's finger knocked on the table and he asked Arc.

"What do you think?"

"Not much. How sad I am. Sam, tell me. Am I destined to stay like this? Become emperors only in name and just do their orders."

Sam did not answer and just looked at her. Arc began to chug down glass after glass of wine and let it go to his head without using his spiritual energy.

He was thrown around the thunder god temple and almost turned into a lackey since the Old One incident.

He wants to get drunk. Drown your sadness in wine.

He stopped the drink and said to Sam.

"Sam, you are the person I envy the most. You are actually, a young, weak teenager who came this far alone. Not even a great power would dare to mess with you.

If only I had the same level of ability that you have and the same level of intelligence that you have, I would have managed to change my fate.

I'm sick of being a doll."

He drank another glass. Sam didn't say anything to her. He also did not drink wine. He usually won't drink alcohol. Only when he thinks too much and his brain and the thoughts in it master it, will he drink so that he can shut off his mind and rest.

He looked at Arc deeply and thought for a while, before finally opening his mouth.

"What about the chance to escape this fate?"

Arc was stunned and shook his head. Trying to be conscious.

"Did I hear you right?"

"opportunity. How's it?"

"What do you mean?"

"I will give you the opportunity to become a Perfect realm, to create a power led only by you. I don't care how you rule or what you rule. All I ask is that I want to use that place as my headquarters. .Hows it? Do you want it?"

"A chance like that won't come for free, right? How much?"

"Loyalty."

Arc frowned; he did not know how to prove his loyalty. But he could understand where Sam was coming from. Right now, all Sam needs are loyal people around him.

Even if it was loyalty, the extent to which he had to be loyal to Sam.

If he had to maintain the same relationship with the thunder god temple, then he wouldn't need to do that right? He could only survive in the present situation.

Sam put down the Crimson red pill and placed it on the table.

"This is the Pill of Servitude. If you want to stay loyal to me, take it.

Because, for example, I have no intention of controlling territory and ruling an empire. I prefer business.

As for what I will give you, it is only natural that I explain it as well.

From what I observed, the main thing that makes a Transcendent stage cultivator lacking is not talent or resources. But guidance.

There were not many Perfect realm cultivators in the world and in every generation, only less than ten cultivators appeared.

Anything regarding nature was completely sealed by a great power making it difficult for a normal Transcendent stage cultivator to breakthrough. In fact, it became almost impossible.

But, I have a way to give you that guide and I'm pretty sure, even large countries won't have access to that guidance level."

Arc went inside and took a deep breath.

"If you don't believe me, why should I trust you?"

"I don't have an answer to that, you might feel this is unfair, but there's one thing I'm sure of, If I want to destroy you, I don't need to play a game of trust and everything, I'm sure, I can kill you anytime I want and if I really want to take over the empire, I will take over now.

What I really want is a peaceful residence and if you become a Perfect Realm cultivator, you will act as a form of deterrent.

So, simply put you can't do anything but trust me.

The same cannot be answered for obvious reasons. My enemy is too big. So, it's ridiculous that someone my age and strength become their enemy.

If I put my trust in you and you betray me, I'll lose everything I've worked so hard for.

Even if you are an Emperor, it makes you more vulnerable in the face of threats. In the end, you will think of me as a single young man. And if the question comes if you have to sacrifice me or your imperial family, it is easier to see who you will choose.

My mistrust of You lies in Your weakness. I hope you understand."

Sam did not speak any further after this.

He explained the situation completely.

Sam gets nothing from the empire even if he destroys it. There was nothing the empire could offer that he could not obtain on his own.

But he really needed a Perfect realm cultivator. He could have brought Raiju to the city, but that would have made it difficult to keep the valley of the tempest secret, and even like that, he did not want to use such power for trivial matters.

He will try his best to get out of his own situation. Unless he was completely cornered, he would not use the power of Raijus directly.

But Arc is experiencing a rollercoaster of emotions.

He didn't know what to say, actually, he had no words to refute Sam. Because he's so precise.

Right now, it was still fine since they did not have too close a relationship. It was only Arc's naivety to vent his frustration in front of Sam.

But if Sam really helped her and trusted her, she would become vulnerable to Sam.

Because, on the surface, he still had to follow the orders of the thunder god temple. Sam can't be sure without any guarantees.

But he also has objections. What if Sam really wanted to rule the empire.

If he really used the pill effect to obtain it, then Arc would be the losing party.

Sam looked out the window and saw the sunrise.

He stood up and stretched his body a little.

"I have something to do. If you agree, you can take the pill, and if you don't, hand the pill over to Philip before you leave."

Sam then goes to the Arena where Arman is. By this time, Arman had already lost his will. He lives like a dead man.

And now, Sam not only beat him up, but also bully him. Forcing him to do something and punishing him if he does not do what he is told.

It happens every day in front of the audience.

Today was just like any other day, but this time Arman couldn't help himself and started crying.

Sam kicked his head and said.

"Who said you could cry? I don't want to see those tears?" Arman hurriedly wiped his eyes.
