pplicable to him.

Words could not express how troubled Phantom was when it came to seniority.
He and Xia Fei might not be master and disciple, but he was more or less Xia Fei’s first mentor, yet he had somehow become his student’s junior.
Phantom just could not accept it, and to make things worse, Xia Fei kept using it to tease him.

Craneshadow already knew that Xia Fei was leaving.
He appeared as soon as Xia Fei set his feet on the thirteenth level and brought him to Shadowless’s place.

They went past an arch door and saw Shadowless struggling to sweep the courtyard.
Xia Fei immediately went forward to lend him a hand, but the man insisted on doing it himself, claiming that cleaning the courtyard was part of his duty.
He would not allow anyone to do it in his place.
Xia Fei had no choice but to wait quietly at the side.

There was a tall cedar tree in the courtyard that had been around for a long time.
Under it were a square table and four chairs made of stones.
Shadowless waved his hand, signalling Xia Fei and Craneshadow to take seats as he went to brew a pot of tea.

The snow was heavy on the mountain.
Luckily, there was not much wind.
It was not too cold; thus, it was quite relaxing to enjoy some tea amid the heavy snow.

“Master, I must leave tonight if there isn’t anything else.
I will pay you a visit again after I’ve done settling the matters in the mundane world,” Xia Fei said respectfully.

Xia Fei did not harbor any malicious intent against the old man.
Either way, they were now master and disciple, and the old man was quite easy to get along with.
He seemed quite harmless, too.

Shadowless nodded and said, “I wonder when we are going to meet again after today.
You’ve done the sect a huge favor, and you’re my new disciple, too.
I should express my gratitude.
Why don’t you tell me what you want?”

Craneshadow was suddenly overwhelmed with grief.
Only Shadowless himself and he knew Shadowless was soon reaching the end of his life.
Xia Fei would only see Shadowless’s memorial tablet the next time he came.
Craneshadow was emotionally stirred as he thought about his old brothers who had passed away one after another.

Even though Xia Fei claimed he was too embarrassed to ask anything from Shadowless, he briefly mentioned the Nether Bell.
He clearly remembered how Darkshadow had used the Nether Bell to summon troops of Deathguards in the dark.
Now that they were at the crucial stage of inventing the super radar, the little communication device that could overcome the environmental disturbance might come in handy.
It would be the best if he could acquire another copy of it, too, since it would greatly help with the invention of the super radar.

However, Xia Fei could not explain it in detail, for it was Darkshadow who told him about the nether bell.
Xia Fei would struggle to explain himself if Shadowless asked where he had learned the existence of the nether bell.

Therefore, Xia Fei slowly led the conversation to the topic on the nether bell.

Shadowless nodded and said, “The thing you described is called the nether bell.
It’s a tool for disciples of the same faction to communicate with one another.
Shadowless rolled his sleeves up to reveal a little bell on his left arm.
“It’s only given to the disciples who are qualified.
Since you’re my disciple now, it won’t hurt to give you one.
You can also use it to contact the others, who happen to be nearby, if necessary.
Most surveillance systems won’t be able to pick its signal up.”

Shadowless turned to Craneshadow after he was done talking.
Craneshadow knew he was asking for the sect master’s permission as a way of respecting him.
Nevertheless, Craneshadow was extremely impressed by Shadowless after what happened yesterday.
He agreed to gifting Xia Fei a complete set of nether bells without any hesitation.
It would also help them to stay in contact.

Xia Fei was overjoyed.
He briefly asked a few more questions about the origin of the nether bells.
According to Shadowless, they had acquired these special communication devices from the ruins of some alien civilization.
They only found around three hundred sets of them, but ever since the Assassin Sect was established, they had yet to break even a single set of the nether bells, which clearly indicated how well-built these devices were.

However, there was only a limited number of these communication devices left.
Every set lost was gone forever as it was impossible to replenish them.
The disciples had to return the bells after they were dead, so the rest of the disciples could use them, too.

Xia Fei came to a realization.
It turned out that these bells were not a product of the Pan-Human Alliance, which explained why their quality was so impressive.

A moment later, a pair of oddly shaped bells flew into Xia Fei’s hands.
Nether bell was only its name.
It was actually a communication device set that resembled a pair of bells.
One was black, while the other was silver.

The black bell was called the source bell.
It could transmit messages to every silver bell nearby.
It was like a megaphone to all channels, while the silver bell could only be used for direct messaging.
It could not deliver a message to everyone at a time.

The range of these bells was not fixed since it also depended on the strength of the signal disturbance from the environments.
However, after years of testing by the Assassin Sect, they know that the nether bell could still transmit a message over a million kilometers away.
If the signal disturbance was not too strong, the transmission distance could reach a few lightyears.

The thought of a pair of tiny bells being able to communicate over a distance of a few lightyears without relying on any external networks was astounding, a testimony to how ridiculously advanced this device was.
Even though they were still incomparable to the super-radar system on Titan, they were still a lot stronger than the communication devices the Pan-Human Alliance was currently using.

Xia Fei put the bells away with a smile.
Shadowless let out a sigh and suddenly mentioned something that took Xia Fei by surprise.
