Chapter 111 Journey to the small world
"Here it comes !". I thought inwardly .
I have always known that there must be some kind of motive behind the actions of the old man . He wouldn't have taken me here to talk about the past or exchange theories of life .
I was not flattered at all by his bowing but I was inwardly alarmed because what will make a supreme king realm being to bow down to me must be very dangerous .
"There is not need for that , senior ". I hurriedly stood up and bowed too .
' Was he trying to guilt trap me '. I rolled my eyes . The old man was rendered quite speechless when he saw me hurriedly standing up and bowing too . We formed a comical sight as we both maintained our bowing posture .
The old man sighed softly and straightened his posture "You fought one of the members of the fog race , right ?".
"Yes , I did ". I confirmed .
"After being corrupted by that devouring aura , they obtained this near immortal body that made them very hard to kill . Even though that many of them died in that war some of their wills were not totally extinguished ". The old man explained .
"Yeah , I noticed that the corpse was controlled by some kind of will ". I said . "Are they trying to resurrect !". I shoot a questioning look at the old man .
The old man sighed and said "I am afraid that's the fact , ordinary gods don't pose a problem because it will be exceedingly difficult for them to come back to life but the problem is that it's a king realm being that is trying to resurrect . It's not a normal king realm powerhouse but the monarch of the green fog race ".
My eyes widened explicably as I said " A king realm is trying to resurrect ?". My heart shook furiously as I was already planning which region I will escape to with the Pagoda .
The old man nodded and said " In the recent years , he have devoured quite a number of powerhouses from your world , barely nourishing his divine will . Due to the fact that the corpses here have long lost their vitality and was useless to him , he would have devoured all the corpses here ".
"Can't you stop him ?". I asked the old man . He was a past monarch , surely he must have a trump card or two.
"I can barely maintain my divine will ". The old man shook his head and said .
"So there is nothing that we can do ?". I looked at him and said .
"That's why I need your help ". The old man looked at me and brought out a sliver seal that was shining brightly . "This is my monarch seal and it can help me to display my peak strength once ".
"That means you have a way to deal with the monarch of the fog race ". I said with confusion because with such a means , he wouldn't be in a dilemma on how to deal with a weak king realm being that just awakened .
"The seal is incomplete ". The old man said with regret .
I noticed that the dragon ingraving on the seal was actually halved which showed that one part was missing . "So you need my help to find the missing part ". I quickly connected the whole dots and figured out his intentions .
"Yes , I need your help ". He answered frankly .
"What's in for me ?". I blinked my eyes innocently and asked .
The old man was stunned at my question and said "But dealing with the monarch of the fog race will also benefit you ".
I shook my head and said "I can always run if he resurrects , am just risking my life for others ". I smiled slightly and said with a cunning light in my eyes .
The mouth of the old man twitched as he said "Why didn't I notice that you were this shameless before ".
I shrugged my shoulders and said "Benefits bring more motivation to things ". My eyes was already on this palace . I rubbed my hands together as I surveyed the interior of the vast hall that will soon be mine .
"What do you want ?" . The old man said with a defeated expression when he discovered that he could not trap me with the motion of world saving .
"I want this palace ". I said calmly .
"Okay , no problem ". The old man outrightly agreed without batting an eyelid .
I immediately heightened my vigilance because of how the old man immediately agreed to my request without much resistance .
Was the old man trying to send me to a forbidden zone ?.
"You don't need to worry , the place you are going will not pose much threat to you considering your demigod cultivation ". The old man said with a smile .
"Oh before then , can I ask you something ?". I said .
"Go on ". The old man nodded and said .
"Why is the heavenly way of my world incomplete ?". I looked at the old man and asked .
"A god from the green fog race survived that battle and was hiding on this battlefield to treat his injuries . Your world had Pinnacle tribulation demigods then and they clashed with the green fog god which lead to a terrifying battle back then .
Normally , they wouldn't have been a match for that god but due to the fact that it was severely injured, it died in that battle but the battle severely damaged the heavenly way of your world ". He explained.
"So this was what happened ". I nodded inwardly , having dispelled my doubts .
"The remaining demigods of your world joined hands together and created a small world for their descendants ". The old man said .
"Oh! , a small world actually exists beside the martial world ". I exclaimed with suprise because I have never discovered it's existence despite the fact that my comprehension in space laws was quite high .
"Yes , the small world is actually located not too far from the battlefield , it will be very hard for them to make contact with your world due to the existence of the battlefield that served as a barrier " .The old man said .
"Actually , I also helped them in the creation of that world as a form of compensation for the damage to their heavenly way ". The old man smiled slightly . "They begged me to help them and relocate the small world to a hidden place in the void and that's the reason you can not sense it's existence ".
I nodded in understanding because since the old man who was a peak expert have acted personally , it was indeed hard for an average being to locate the world .
"Thousands of years ago , a fellow from your world was saved by me in the ruin and he called himself the 'Sky king ' ". The old man chuckled for the first time .
"He was quite a character and I sent him to the small world with half of my seal in order for him to bury the seal in heaven and Earth vein . The heaven and Earth vein will help to nuture and replenish the energy of the seal although it will take a long time ".
I was really surprised when I heard the name of the sky king . This fellow seems to be leaving his footsteps everywhere .
"So you want me to go to the small world and take the seal back ". I said .
"Yes , having been nutured by the heaven and Earth vein for long , it would at least have regained some part of it's energy "The old man waved his hand and said " Don't worry about any danger , only few demigods exist in that world ".
"Okay , I will go ". I agreed immediately . The demigods there must be quite strong so i intend to bully ... ahem ! exchange pointers with them .
The old man smiled and said "Before then , I will show my sincereity ". Boooom!!! he waved his hand as a vast amount of divine energy started entering my body suddenly .
I immediately closed my eyes as I circulated my cultivation technique rapidly absorbing the divine energy. My body was emitting bright sliver light as I cultivated . The world in my dantian was rapidly strengthened and was transforming as I charged towards the middle stage of demigod realm .
Boooom!!!!
My body shook slightly as i promoted to the middle stage of the demigod realm . I opened my eyes as spat out turbid air . I quickly retracted my aura and became normal again .
The old man who was looking at me with a shocked expression said " Are you really at the Demigod realm or tribulation demigod realm ". Because my aura was really terrifying .
I smiled slightly and said "I am still at demigod realm , quite weak ". I shook my head and lamented .
The mouth of the old man twitched as he decided to pry into my secrets . Boooom!! a spatial passage appeared behind him as he said "This is the entrance to the small world ".
I nodded and walked towards the passage "How do I get back ?". I turned and asked .
He threw a token to me and said "Just pour your divine energy into it and it will build a spatial passage connecting to this place ". He instructed me .
I thanked him and calmly stepped into the passage , leaving a sentence behind . "Don't die before I come back because I will not be able to receive my payment ".
The old man shook his head and ignored me . He then frowned because his body became more blur . "It seems like I don't have much time left ". A cold light flashed in his eyes . "Before then , i need to fortify the seal ". His figure vanished and disappeared from the palace . Download Novelah App
