…
Leylin got off the Cyan Blood Bat, and smiled to Neelam, “Good to see you, miss Neelam. Why are you still here?”
“We are just on our way home.” Neelam pouted, while looking at the Alaister Family warrior beside Leylin in awe, and said in a low voice, “Berkan, who are they?”
From her teacher, Ben Parks who previously met with the Shura Blood Guards on their search for Leylin, she had already learned of the abilities of the Shura Blood Guards, yet Yamadūti’s imposing attacks in the sky astonished her and made her belief that he’s probably stronger than her master as Ben claimed.
Therefore, standing in front of the Shura Blood Guard of the Alaister Family from the Endless Sea, even Neelam was anxious.
“Well they are the Shura Blood Guards and that’s all you need to know for now. As for why they are here, let’s see.” Leylin said leaving Neelam who felt confused.
“Bang!”
Just then, a frightening explosion came from the sky.
In the middle of the blood sea, Elrod’s body exploded while his head and limbs fell to the ground.
The blood sea started to disappear.
‘Such a waste’ Leylin could only look high above and sigh.
The hideous looking Shura King, Yamadūti, descended from the sky to Leylin’s side, with a bloody jade bottle in his hand.
Inside the bottle, Elrod’s spirit was struggling in hatred.
“Young Master Berkan.” Yamadūti walked up to Leylin, the smell of blood wafting from his body, and smiled, “I didn’t prepare any gifts for our first meeting. But this guy is at the First Sky of the Sky Realm. When we get back to the Alaister Family, I will refine a weapon with his spirit as a gift for you.”
“Well…” Leylin scratched his head and smiled, “I am very gratified to have you kill someone who was after my and my family’s life and as for the gift, although I don’t know why you would gift me something so valuable. Thank you very much.”
“It’s not big enough.” Yamadūti shook his head, and said rigidly, “Young Master Berkan will be the hope of the Alaister Family. I have to be good to you before you go back to the Alaister Family in the Endless Sea, or you will forget me, hehe.”
Everyone else stared at the jade bottle in Yamadūti hand, and went blank seeing Elrod’s struggling spirit.
“Master, who on earth is Berkan?” Ben Parks asked after a short silence.
Yamadūti frowned, and took a glance at him coldly, “None of your business.”
Ben smiled embarrassingly, and stopped asking, before he looked at Leylin in surprise.
“Young Master Berkan, Let’s find a better place for talking.” Yamadūti suddenly suggested.
“Yeah sure, but before that I have a small request I don’t know if it’s appropriate for me to say this after all that you have done for me?”
“Please, don’t hesitate and tell me Young Master. I would try all I can do to fulfill your request.” Yamadūti immediately intervened and saw Leylin turning his focus to the bottle.
“Can you please give me this bottle?” Leylin said with a visibly embarrassed expression but inwardly his mind was working at lightning speed. Leylin already had his eyes on Elrod’s soul from long ago.
‘If I get his soul, then I can possibly do some research and even probably find a way to use it against that ‘person’. And more importantly if kept in your possession such a great thing would be destroyed.’ Leylin thought, as kept his eyes on the bottle, the reason why he wanted to have the soul in his possession is to not only study the sea of consciousness that’s formed at Nirvana Realm but also to prepare for a Trump Card for himself.
Yamadūti looked at Leylin for a while nodded, as he walked aside with him, handed him the bottle nonchalantly and looked directly into his eyes, “Young Master Berkan, could I check your body?”
Leylin hold the bottle and seeing Yamadūti not questioning him for his request, he also didn’t refused and said, “Sure!”
Yamadūti reached out his red hand and put it on his shoulder, then a stream of dense profound Qi went into his body.
That agile profound Qi moved all around his meridians. Leylin wasn’t worried about his secrets being seen through because the arrangements of a God is not so easy to be seen through.
After that, Yamadūti finally nodded joyfully, “Well, it seems you did inherit the Immortal Martial Spirit of the Alaister Family!”
“Young Master Berkan, here’s an immortal pill made by the family head, which is one of the seven famous medicines in the Endless Sea. It can clean your meridians and your whole body. The Immortal Pills are Spirit Level medicine, and sometimes can make a commoner into a warrior, by triggering his Martial Spirit. Once you take it, your meridians will expand and your Immortal Martial Spirit will develope more. Hmm, since you’ve reached Disaster realm, you might have reached the second stage of the Immortal Martial Spirit, although you can’t advance much through the pill. But it would benefit you a lot, so take it now.”
Yamadūti smiled, took out a jade box and opened it, inside which was a pill.
That pill was shining with beautiful colors, and from the small holes on it, wisps of pleasing and refreshing scents wafted out.
“This Immortal Pill is very strong, and may torture you for days. But it does not harm your body. Young Master Berkan, take it and I will protect you here. No one would dare interrupt you in the Dead Swamp.” Yamadūti handed the pill to him with a serious face.
Leylin nodded, and picked up the pill gauging it carefully.
“Bum-bum, bum-bum, bum-bum!”
As he held the pill in his hand, he felt the beats from an infant’s heart. And the holes were producing a pleasing smell.
A Spirit Level pill.
‘It’s made with a fraction of drop of immortal blood which has outstanding recovering ability and although it’s processed, I can still use it to heal myself to a huge degree which would help me to advance smoothly in Teimon City to set off for Endless Sea.’ Leylin thought with a serious expression as he consumed it without hesitation.
Leylin expression remained solemn bringing surprise to Yamadūti and others from Endless Sea, he didn’t show a single frown as he felt a burning sensation in his stomach. Without any further considerations, he sat down, cross-legged, and began to digest this Spirit Level pill from the Endless Sea.
Leylin sat on the ground, with his legs crossed and eyes shut. His body was starting to turn red as the temperature of his body slowly increased.
Drops of sweat appeared on his forehead, but they were evaporating very quickly, due to his high body temperature, and changing into water vapor.
Soon, around his body, there appeared a circle of mist. The mist kept increasing, and then evaporating from the increasing heat. But still the mist ceased to disappear.
Leylin’s expression refused to budge, it looked as if he was just indulging in a simple cultivation exercise.
Yamadūti stood astonished next to him, his eyes focused on him, watching Leylin’s every movement while clenching the Ice Pill in his possession.
In the Alaister family, there were many children who wanted to absorb all of the power of the Immortal Pill, and willingly chose to give up on the Ice Pill.
However, rarely could any of these people bear through it. Most would give up in the middle of the process, and couldn’t help but ask for an Ice Pill to ease that frightening pain.
But, once the Ice Pill was used, the medicinal effects of the Immortal Pill would lessen by 20%. While the Ice Pill could remove some of the pain, it will also remove some of the medicinal power of the Immortal Pill.
On the other side.
Ordell was watching everything, and a trace of surprise flashed through her beautiful eyes.
She was the young mistress of the Omega family, and the relationship between the Omega family and the Alaister family had always been close, so she knew about the secrets behind the Immortal Pill and the Ice Pill.
Seeing Leylin so calm and collected made her surprised and astonished, adding more to the mystic that was this person before her.
Days quickly passed as Leylin swiftly used the innate power of the immortal pill breaking it down inside his body and further using it to recover from his previous self imposed injury. In actuality, he easily and quite quickly dealt with all of explosive power of the Immortal Pill but if he were to end this session quickly it would seem very odd hence, he deliberately kept going as he used the collected reservoir of devour energy he gathered from the death of his victims in God Area to cultivate.
Finally, Leylin opened his eyes which were shining brightly as smiled widely, “Remarkable!”
Yamadūti expression froze, as he stared at Leylin in daze, “Wasn’t it painful?”
Leylin shook his head, the redness on his face slowly disappeared, he smiled: “The pain is reality, reality is cruel and hard, only through hardship real men are born, and to accept pain is to accept yourself and only through that shall you emerge anew, and now I’m at peak of third sky of the Disaster realm. This Immortal Pill sure is remarkable.”
“The third sky of the Disaster realm!” The Alaister family warriors all yelled out, their faces full of astonishment.
Seventeen years old, Disaster realm third sky!
Even for those who grew up in the Alaister family and the central disciples, who have consumed countless elixirs, could rarely break into the third sky of the Human realm at seventeen years old.
Leylin had always been in the Merchant Union, without the assistance of the powerful resources of the family, but he had stepped into the third sky of the Disaster realm which is a whole realm above it and much more difficult to achieve at just seventeen years old!
Such talent, such cultivation speed, it was utterly too good to be true. It can easily put him up against the best and brightest heaven shaking geniuses of the Endless Sea.
Yamadūti’s eyes glimmered with light, he took a deep breath, and said in a deep and respectful tone, “Young master Berkan, it seems that I’ve underestimated you. Absorbing all of the Immortal Pill’s power within three days of time, without any external help, is extremely shocking. If the head of the family knew about your performance just now, he’d be very pleasantly surprised. If young master returns to the family right now, you might just be immediately rewarded one or two island and a level six demon beast, the Twin-headed Dragon.”
The island mentioned by Yamadūti isn’t just a small piece of land but quite in fact is bigger than Teimon City. Leylin would be able to do whatever he wants with it, this just shows how wealthy and powerful the family is. Alaister Family, controls almost a thousand islands, some of which are even bigger than the entire Merchant Union.
“I’m looking forward to going there, my ambitions can’t be met here.” Leylin nodded, his expression tranquil.
“Young master, may we go to the Endless Sea now?” Yamadūti pondered for a second, and said, “Young master Raymond does not wish to return, and there is no need to go to Teimon City, we should just leave now. Right now the Fourth Demon Area is ready to make trouble, and I shouldn’t stay out for long. The sooner we go back, the sooner we’ll be able to contribute a little more power to the family. Young master you also need to be tested by the family, and cultivate the ‘Immortal Rebirth Creed’ so you can quickly become a pillar of the family.”
“I would love to go but my duties as a filial descendant of Lenoir family doesn’t end just yet, especially when the whole Merchant Union is in chaos!” Leylin frowned and preached passionately in a serious voice.
“Young master is an affectionate man. I understand” Yamadūti nodded, and said, “Then we will go back to Teimon City.”
“Uncle.” Ordell suddenly spoke up.
“Alright, you can come along too. We won’t stay in Teimon City for long. Once the business is settled, we’ll immediately go back to the Endless Sea, how’s that?” Yamadūti said.
Odell agreed and looked deeply at Leylin. She hesitated for a moment, then said, “Uncle, Young Master Berkan, still has the Star Martial Spirit of the Three Gods Sect on him, don’t forget.”
“This will be handled by the head of the family.” Yamadūti grinned. “The Three Gods Sect has always been in conflict with the Alaister family. If they knew that Young got the Star Martial Spirit of Aibek Orpheus. I wonder what their faces would look like. Haha, young master truly has the best fortune. He even obtained the original seal of the Martial Spirit. This time, the head of the family will laugh until his mouth is crooked.”
As the two conversed they kept using respectful young master term to address to Leylin, Yamadūti is a vessel of the Alaister family so despite his Sky Realm cultivation it’s rather obvious that he would be respectful to a direct descendent of his master, Alaister Abaddon the master of Alaister Family especially when the said descendant is so talented.
But Ordell as someone from the same generation and same position as Leylin don’t need to be very respectful, but she decided to be because Leylin is a mysterious entity to her brining many surprises and secrets and his cultivation is also higher than her, a feat that truly astonishes her.
His future is destined to be remarkable standing at the summit of Endless Sea at some point if nothing disastrous happens, with a character so tough and unpredictable as well as possessing heaven defying cultivation speed, three Martial Spirits and the backing of Alaister Family. Leylin is a force to be reckon with!
“Let’s go.” Without further ado, Leylin took the lead and walked towards the level six Cyan Blood Bat.
—————–
After a few days passed, At dusk.
The sky was dull, with heavy dark clouds, as if a storm was about to come, dreary and depressing.
Cyan Blood Bats were flying in the sky in a line, and slowly descended upon Teimon City.
Ten minutes later, the Cyan Blood Bat arrived at the Lenoir Family’s residence.
There were white cloth rags hanging everywhere in the residence, and the air was filled with a dismal and gloomy feeling.
All members of the Lenoir Family were in agony, as wailing sounds could be heard coming from many rooms.
Sitting on the Cyan Blood Bat, Leylin expression turned frosty as a freighting aura radiated from him, even the experts of plundering, killing and mass murdering Shura Blood Guards were astonished by the sense of dread he was imposing.
After glancing down, everyone realized that they were holding a funeral. According to the ritual, it must be someone important.
In the spacious land of the Lenoir Family, all the family members were wearing uniforms, and drowning in sorrow. Thomas’s (Leylin uncle grandfather) descendants all looked mournful.
The Cyan Blood Bat landed in the yard, which drew their attention, and they walked out to watch.
