Chapter 35: Chapter 35
Pausing for a moment, Allen boldly voiced the speculation in his heart. "Your Majesty, do you think this young man might also become such a figure in the future?!"
"His cultivation becomes so overwhelmingly powerful that he can sense the past. When you pried into this person, Imperial Master, his future self sensed it! Thus, he unleashed a divine ability, crossed the long river of time, and obscured the face of his past self!"
The Silver Willow Imperial Master was dumbfounded. He had not expected Allen’s imagination to be so wild.
"You old servant, you actually believe such baseless records from unofficial histories."
"The First Heaven and Earth Upheaval was so ancient. It must have been right after the creation of heaven and earth. There might not have even been living beings on this land, so how could there be official historians to record it?!"
"Furthermore, crossing the long river of time? How could anyone possess such heaven-reaching mighty power? Even a Heaven and Earth Deity is far from being able to cross the long river of time."
Pausing for a moment, the Imperial Master seemed to find a reason to convince himself. "This final Soul-Channeling Ancient Jade has been stored in the Silver Willow Imperial Palace for hundreds of years."
"Over these centuries, it is entirely possible that the jade suffered some slight degradation and damage."
Hearing this explanation, Allen could not help but reveal a bitter smile. He clearly knew his previous words were too wildly fanciful, and the Imperial Master’s reasoning aligned much more with common sense.
"Imperial Master, since you did not see this person’s face clearly, how are we going to find that young man?!"
"Without the ancient jade in his hands, how are we supposed to seize the opportunities within that secret realm?!"
Allen’s eyes were full of worry, e knew the Imperial Master was nearing the end of his lifespan.
Without the immortal herbs and immortal pills in that secret realm to extend his life, he feared the Imperial Master would not last more than a few years.
"Hahaha! Although We could not see his face clearly, based on his build, We can roughly deduce that this person is a youth, twenty years old at most, and he favors wearing white robes and is tall."
"Allen, investigate secretly. Ask the Imperial City Guards if any youths matching these characteristics have left the city in recent days."
"If not, have the Night Watch Bureau secretly investigate all youths in the capital who match these traits. We must find this young man before the Heaven and Earth Upheaval arrives."
"Yes, Imperial Master. This old servant will definitely not fail his mission."
...
Inkwood Academy, by a window.
Adam was entirely unaware that danger had already descended upon him.
At this moment, he was leaning by the window, reading the historical text in his hands with great relish.
The text recorded the deeds of a youth who defied the heavens and proved his Dao in the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
Ten thousand years ago, an infant was born into a primitive tribe in the Hundred Thousand Mountains of the Southern Ridge, the tribal elders named this child Ren.
The Hundred Thousand Mountains were incredibly perilous. Great Demons roamed everywhere, and demonic beasts were numerous, and creatures like wolf demons, leopard demons, and tiger demons frequently attacked human tribes.
Therefore, although this primitive tribe was small in number, every single one of its members was exceedingly brave and skilled in battle.
When Ren was born, his vitality and blood were incredibly thick, far surpassing adult warriors.
At merely seven years old, he became a tribal warrior, entering the Hundred Thousand Mountains to slaughter wolf and tiger demons in close combat.
Ren possessed astonishing comprehension. While fighting life-and-death struggles with the wolf and tiger demons, he could often learn a move or stance from them.
As he grew older, he fought and killed more and more demons, learning increasingly more moves and stances. His combat prowess grew increasingly tyrannical, and at the mere age of eighteen, he became the number one warrior of his tribe.
However, after reaching adulthood, Ren’s strength grew slowly. Although wolf and tiger demons were plentiful, the current Ren could exterminate them with a wave of his hand.
In pursuit of powerful strength, Ren ignored the dissuasion of his tribesmen and resolutely stepped into the depths of the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
The depths of the Hundred Thousand Mountains were the core zone of the Demon Domain.
Great Demons appeared frequently, and there was no shortage of Demon Lords.
There were even a few Demon Kings. And in the very deepest parts, rumor had it there were existences even more powerful than Demon Kings.
After stepping into the depths, dangers arose frequently, and Ren nearly perished several times.
Although he was the number one warrior of his tribe, the wolf and tiger demons he usually killed were merely the lowest grade of demonic beasts, and compared to Great Demons, the difference was like heaven and earth.
Fortunately, having fought tiger and wolf demons for over a decade, Ren possessed extremely rich combat experience. Relying on his highly skilled battle instincts, he not only turned danger into safety, but his slowly growing strength also experienced a massive boost.
Ren was overjoyed. His thirst for strength continued to drive him deeper into the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
Finally, one day, Ren encountered the greatest fortuitous opportunity of his life. He saved the Divine Elephant, one of the two Great Supremes of the Demon Domain.
While competing with the other Demon Race Supreme for the position of Demon Lord, the Divine Elephant Supreme had been ambushed by his subordinate Demon Kings, ultimately suffering defeat.
Perhaps because he was betrayed by his followers and deserted by his allies, leaving him completely disheartened, the Divine Elephant Supreme did not attack Ren despite being of a different race.
However, the Divine Elephant Supreme’s injuries were too severe, and he ultimately perished.
But before he fell, he imparted the Divine Elephant Clan’s supreme foundational technique to Ren.
The Divine Elephant was of the demon race, so its clan’s supreme technique was fundamentally unsuited for human cultivation.
But Ren was born with immensely powerful blood qi and an astonishing physique.
Relying on his shocking comprehension, he actually successfully cultivated the Divine Elephant Clan’s supreme technique.
