War chariots tore the sky and stormed into the immense starry sea like lightning strikes.
Experts from the three big forces also released their surging powers, rocketing into the sky from the Heaven Punishment City, chasing after pirates who were going into the Land of God Punishment.
There were so many forbidden lands outside the Land of God Punishment. The forbidden lands were also star areas with hidden dangers. Some had disorderly energy. Some had so many barriers and restrictions that even the Original God Realm warriors couldn’t get through.
The pirates took risks and flew out of the Land of God Punishment because they were confident of their understanding of the situations of the forbidden lands.
Leylin didn’t leave with the pirates as previously planned, it seemed as if he didn’t care about the star map. Pirates also didn’t look for him or made any excessive attempts to get in contact. In actuality they didn’t really cared except for concerns and hesitation from Fatima and Kato, no nobody even thought of Leylin who actually contributed the Star Map.
Kato and Fatima both tried to get in his contact but after a few failed attempts and under constant persistence from other pirates they were binded. In the end, before their take off Leylin himself notified them to go on their way without him.
Instead of moving with others Leylin decided to accompany Leona and Fiona back to their base, learning more about them and their relationship with the bloodthirsty force.
Leylin doesn’t have much information about this extremely strange yet exceedingly dominant ancient force, and finding some inheritors of Bloodthirsty’s cortege of eight he couldn’t help but inquire about this inheritance background.
After a long discussion although Leylin wasn’t actually able to figured out everything yet. He did discover new information about both of them as well as the evil inheritance of Bloodthirsty force.
A long, long time ago, Leona’s ancestors were just common people living in a small life star of Dark Firmament Divine Nation.
They were fishermen. They didn’t know power Upanishad. They didn’t have any warriors at that time.
This continued till one day… her ancestors found a floating man on the sea. He was wounded and in a fatal condition. He was going to die at any moment.
Leona’s ancestor brought him home, trying his best to take care of him. Gradually, he restored his consciousness. When he woke up, he hastened to leave.
However, he was grateful to Leona’s ancestor. For the assistance, he left his inheritance to them. It was the Dark power Upanishad inheritance.
Before he left, that strange man told her ancestor that he would go to an ancient continent, his homeland, to impart the inheritance of his Master. He said that he couldn’t live any longer and that he would possibly die soon. He asked us to cultivate the Dark power Upanishad and maintain his inheritance.
He didn’t mention his name, but he bestowed a name to her family. They were the bloodline of the ‘Dark Sky.’
The Dark power Upanishad was strong and subtle. With this power, her ancestor soon become the overlord of that life star.
With another lucky encounter, Dark Sky family ancestor became the First Imperial Master of the divine nation. He gained fame and high ranks. The power of the Dark Upanishad threatened the entire star area.
However, due to his innate endowment, that ancestor couldn’t reach the peak. He passed away after establishing Dark power Upanishad is their family’s foundation.
The expert who had taught them the Dark power Upanishad was— Leonidas Larrington.
Anything related to him, was deemed a family secret by the Dark Sky family not to be shared with anyone but they always knew they would be someone who would know about him.
Many years later, a mysterious expert appeared in the Raging Flame Star Area. He cultivated Dead power Upanishad. He had cleaned up many life stars, turning them into barren and desolate areas.
After he had appeared in the Raging Flame Star Area, he was wanton, not afraid of anything. He destroyed dozens of life stars just to recover from his wounds. Forces from everywhere gathered experts to kill him. Another ancestor of Dark Sky Family, also an Imperial Master of the Dark Firmament Divine Nation, had joined this operation.
But after the hotshots of the entire Raging Flame Star Area saw that man, they immediately knew the difference between their realms. They weren’t strong enough to even have a chance to defeat them. They thought they were going to die immediately.
But the invader recognized the Dark Upanishad and stopped attacking.
The invader was actually from the same orthodoxy like the Dark Sky family’s ancestor. Like him, he had one of the Eight Great Inheritances.
And that man was going to give the Dead power Upanishad inheritance. He came to the Raging Flame Star Area to rescue his brother who was another Inheritance. His brother cultivated Chaotic power Upanishad. He was imprisoned in the God Perishing Land inside the Land of God Punishment.
The one he wanted to rescue was the one from whom Kato’s chaos Upanishad originated.
He also said that he had a brother who cultivated Corrosive power Upanishad. But that man was dead. He said that he wasn’t sure that he could survive after this rescue mission. He wanted to impart his brother’s inheritance. So, he gave another inheritance: the Corrosive power Upanishad, which is what Leona’s aunt Fiona is cultivating.
He wanted Dark Sky family ancestor to impart and maintain this power Upanishad in the family, and keep it from extinguishing.
He gave him a Blood Shield and said that it was one of the Master’s precious objects. He advised that if the Dark Sky family descendants had a chance to meet his Master’s heir, they should give him that Blood Shield.
From that man, they knew that people from the Eight Great Inheritances had a blood mark and the Master that the Eight Great Inheritances serve possessed a ring. His heir would also have that ring. It’s a sign.
Leylin is that master, whom they are eternally bounded to serve!
In the past the Dark Sky Family thrived because of the intimidating Dark Upanishad and Corrosive Upanishad. And then, they manipulated the King of the Divine Nation becoming real owners of the divine nation.
The family had become stronger and stronger. They controlled endless sources and fester wild schemes.
They growed unceasingly until one day, when the seniors of the family felt that they were equipped enough to explore the God Perishing Land, they went there to reveal the secret of the Eight Great Inheritances.
That was why they got the star map after years of exploring that area. Until the last generation of the family, Leona’s father cultivated the Dark power Upanishad, and her Uncle cultivated the Corrosive power Upanishad. They were really powerful. At that time, no one in the Raging Flame Star Area could resist them. Leona’s father was the hidden hand that manipulated the divine nation.
He held the true power of the divine nation. Her Uncle stayed in the Land of God Punishment to conquer all the Pirates. The powers and forces they had controlled were enough to defeat the entire Raging Flame Star Area. One day, when they had broken through to the Ethereal God Realm, they couldn’t hold it anymore. They used the star map made by Dark Sky family ancestors to explore the God Perishing Land.
As they left, they brought many hotshots of the family. They all disappeared. Leona family then declined. Since their power had decreased tremendously, the Dark Sky couldn’t control the divine nation anymore.
Then, the hotshots of the Raging Flame Star Area joined hands to destroy the remaining warriors of our Dark Sky family. Finally, they were uprooted. Fiona had taken Leona, a little girl at that time, to the Land of God Punishment to avoid this coup. The large Dark Sky family, which used to be the real overlords of the Raging Flame Star Area, was reduced to only Leona and Fiona.
They had been waiting, patiently and hopefully that something would change someday and that wish came when Leylin emerged with the star map. This was fate and the destiny, something that not even Fiona, an esteemed Eternal Realm warriors who touched the boundaries of law couldn’t deny.
Leylin didn’t immediately ask them to swear allegiance to him abiding by the ancestral teaching, neither did he inquire about their stance nor commented on their rather guarded and unsure behavior.
He instead absorbed the vast information and invited them to accompany him to the destination of star map.
Leylin knows that he doesn’t need to convince the two, they were already left without any option.
Leona was someone who took the teaching of her family and ancestral code very strictly, it’s just a moment of time before she swear to Leylin. Quite in fact she is already convinced, she knows Leylin undeniable talents and have seen his unwavering stance when she entered a paramount obstacles in her cultivation.
As for Fiona she just can’t resist the idea of reuniting with her man. Although the chances are slim, someone like Fiona who loves her husband so much, can never sit still knowing that there is a place where he might still be alive.
Even if Fiona looks nonchalant and seem to not care about worldly affairs but from her love for Leona and the countless times she protected the Heavenly Punishment City, it’s easy to decipher that she is an emotional women. The type who can even risk her life to save her people.
With that Leylin left the Heavenly punishment city, although he doesn’t have the map anymore it’s easy for him to tail the pirates.
Leylin had a beam of Kato’s Original Soul in his God Soul. As soon as his thought flickered, he could use that Original Soul to connect and trace down Kato.
Following that connection, he maneuvered, crossing the group of people fighting each other. His figure moved further, leaving the Land of God Punishment, flying toward the forbidden land where Kato was hiding.
Forbidden lands in the Land of God Punishment had layers upon layers of dangers. It wasn’t a surprise as to why the three big forces couldn’t clean up the pirates. Quite the contrary, they had to bear great losses.
The pirates stood for so many years. Besides Fiona protection in the Heaven Punishment, they had depended on countless barriers and restrictions around the place to survive. They were familiar with those forbidden areas. After years of exploring, they knew the characteristics of those places and made them their shelters.
The three big forces were not used to these places. If they made even a mistake, the magical power of the forbidden lands could kill even Original God Realm experts.
This was also the reason why many madmen and thugs in the Raging Flame Star Area would come to the Land of God Punishment after committing so many crimes.
As long as they hid in those restricted areas, others wouldn’t be able to use Soul Consciousness to sense them. Entering those places was like joining a vast maze. Besides just being unable to finding their target, they would end up caught within some barrier for a long time. It wasn’t worth it.
But for Leylin they weren’t that much of an issue. He has the assistance of A. I. Chip and mastery of formations, rune and barriers. It’s just a matter of moment for him to maneuver through the restrictions.
…
While flying towards the sea in front of him, Leylin suddenly stopped with a peculiar expression on his face. He looked around carefully as an azure hue flashed past his eyes and he understood something.
His eyes were sparkling with strange light. He recognized that the barriers protecting the forbidden lands around the Land of God Punishment hid many big secrets.
This place consisted of shattered mountains, abandoned lakes, ruins of palaces, intent domain generated by God Domain of deceased warriors, man-made and natural barriers… This place shouldn’t be remote and isolated. It should be a busy place packed with experts or probably even hiding a past secret.
With this thought, He observed the forbidden land again. Seeing the many strange things and their statuses, he had an answer for himself.
A long, long time ago, those mountains, lakes, and ruins should have belonged to one or more continents.
After the continents exploded, the fragments created the current scenery. There should have been many experts who could build barriers and restrictions on the continents. When the continents exploded, the barriers and restricted were also fragmented and scattered in the immense starry sky of the Land of God Punishment.
The continents that exploded with its many mountains, lakes, and palaces were protected by barriers and the intent domain created by God Domain of the deceased experts… Which level was this life star before it got burst apart? How prosperous and luxurious did it use to be? How many mysterious experts did it use to have?
“Amazing isn’t it? I have been here before but mostly there are just dead ends.”
Leylin who was observing around the shattered plane, turned his head looking at a blank space in the void. There seemed to be nothing and no one there but he could feel an unending cold darkness that seems to veil something domineering inside it.
“There would be no dead ends this time, whatever secret this place has would be discovered by us.”
“Do you really think those nitwit brutes would be able to decipher the star map and breakthrough uncountable challenges to reach the core zone?”
“Well I am not very optimistic about them, but don’t they have us as their guiding angel? They would be just fine.”
“Whatever… ” The voice in the void disappeared as if it was just Leylin’s imagination.
Leylin shook his head and moved forward, “Let’s go then..”
It was much smoother entering the sea. Leylin didn’t encounter anything much. He continued to fly quickly.
After an hour, he saw an islet. As soon as he arrived, Leylin could feel Kato presence immediately but he didn’t show himself instead he observed from the sidelines.
“He’s about to breakthrough to Original God Realm. His path is no longer clogged..”
“It’s about time, his diverged Chao path has already been corrected by me. He just needs a good enough chance or lucky encounter to step through that dragon gate.”
“Are you optimistic for him?”
“I guess… He’s not that bad but even if he breakthrough it’s not gonna be anything game changing. Well I guess I am not that worried, because I know in the end only your personal strength matters doesn’t it?”
“Says the brat with two overpowered bodyguards. Hmph!”
“Hahaha…. ”
Leylin laughed and conserved with the voices in the void as they waited for Kato to continue his journey. Soon enough after a while, Kato moved forward and entered a thick misty area with the wind howling violently which implied some invisible dangers.
