“In the Fire Worship Sect, even someone with the worst potential with a green Innate Spiritual Root can still become a Bronze Flame Elder… Based on Senior Brother Gu Li’s talent, it’s not impossible for you to become a Fire Worship Sect’s Silver Flame Elder!” Duan Ling Tian said.

“Junior Brother Ling Tian!” Gu Li’s expression turned solemn when he heard Duan Ling Tian’s words.

“What?” Duan Ling Tian’s heart skipped a beat when he saw Gu Li’s sudden solemn expression.

“Junior Brother Ling Tian, I want to leave the Fire Worship Sect for the time being… There’s something I need to do,” Gu Li said after he took a deep breath.

“What happened?” Duan Ling Tian asked, confused.

“It’s inconvenient for me to explain it to you now… However, this matter is very important to me! I originally planned to leave after bidding you farewell. However, the Yuan Brothers kept a close watch on me so I didn’t have a chance to find you in the Black Turtle Sanctum,” Gu Li said, “Who knew you’d come today and even killed the Yuan Brothers to avenge me… I think it’s time for me to leave.”

“Senior Brother Gu Li, no matter what you intend to do, you’ll always have my support.”

Since Gu Li said it was inconvenient for him to explain the matter, Duan Ling Tian did not persist in questioning him. After all, everyone had their own secrets.

Did he not keep secrets from Gu Li as well?

A smile instantly appeared on Gu Li’s face after he listened to Duan Ling Tian’s words.

“However, if you intend to leave, Senior Brother Gu Li, it’s best you do it as soon as possible… In fact, now would be the best time! Otherwise, the Black Turtle Sanctum’s First Silver Flame Elder Li An and Yang Cong, the fifth elder of the Northern Plethora Sect, might tail you,” Duan Ling Tian said solemnly.

“That’s what I thought as well.” Gu Li nodded. He seemed to have thought of something, and he said, “I hope Junior Brother Ling Tian will help me inform Palace Master Zhu of this.”

“Alright!” Duan Ling Tian promised without any hesitation.

Following that, Duan Ling Tian sent Gu Li all the way till the north of the Vermilion Bird Sanctum before he finally stopped.

If they go further north, they would be considered as leaving the Vermilion Bird Sanctum.

“Senior Brother Gu Li, please take care,” Duan Ling Tian said to Gu Li.

“Junior Brother Ling Tian, you have to be careful while you’re in the Fire Worship Sect… When I’ve dealt with my matter, I’ll return and help you! Perhaps, at that time, I would be more of a help and not as useless as I am now!” Gu Li said with a nod as a self-deprecating smile appeared on his face.

“What are you saying, Senior Brother Gu Li? No matter what happens, you’re still my senior brother. Nothing will ever change that,” Duan Ling Tian said seriously.

Under Duan Ling Tian’s watchful eyes, Gu Li finally left. After Gu Li’s figure disappeared from his sight, Duan Ling Tian finally regained his senses and left the Vermilion Bird Sanctum to return to the Black Turtle Sanctum.

What Duan Ling Tian wanted to do most now was to cultivate!

With this blue Innate Spiritual Root, his cultivation speed was more than one fold faster than what it used to be!

“I’d need half a month at most to breakthrough to the Mastery Divine Saint Stage… Give me another month, I might even break through to the peak of the Divine Saint Stage! After three months when I’ll have to serve my sentence at the Four Symbols Sanctums’ First Mine, my cultivation base might even be at the Exemplary Saint Stage.”

During Duan Ling Tian’s journey back, he was dreaming about his bright future. With that thought in mind, he was even more eager to return to cultivating.

While Duan Ling Tian returned to the Black Turtle Sanctum, Gu Li had also left the Fire Worship Sect.

After leaving the Fire Worship Sect, he picked a direction and moved in a straight line as though there was something guiding him.

During the journey, Gu Li muttered to himself, “Thirty years… It has been thirty years…”

There was a secret in Gu Li’s heart that even his father, Gu Ci Yun, was unaware of. He had obtained an incomplete inheritance in the Dao Martial Saint Land thirty years ago. It was only a small fraction of the inheritance.

According to the records in the small fraction of inheritance, he must head to the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land to find the entire inheritance. That was the reason why he had always wanted to go to the Upper Province!

However, he did not leave immediately to look for the inheritance as soon as he arrived in the Upper Province in order to understand it more.

His competitiveness was only sparked when he was tormented by the Yuan Brothers. He had desperately wished that he had the complete inheritance at that time.

He did not tell his father, Gu Ci Yun, about the inheritance due to a warning left behind by the senior who had left the inheritance. He had warned him against sharing the news of the inheritance with his family and friends. Unless it was someone who was suited with the inheritance, he must not pass it on!

In order to avoid putting himself in a tough spot, he had kept this a secret.

“According to the records in the inheritance I obtained in the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land, the inheritance I’m about to obtain belongs to an ancient sect known as the Seven Absolutes Sect! The Seven Absolutes Sect has Seven Absolutes in total… The inheritance I found is the Third Absolute, the Kratos Progeny! I’ll be the current heir of the Kratos Progeny!” Gu Li’s eyes brightened. “As long as I’m able to obtain the third Absolute, the Kratos progeny of the Seven Absolutes Sect, my strength would improve greatly… At that time, I might be able to help Junior Brother Ling Tian in rescuing his wife when I return to the Fire Worship Sect!”

The Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land was very vast. It was far bigger than the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land.

…

In the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land, in the North Polar Region.

It snowed there all year long. The sky and the ground seemed hard to differentiate since they were all white.

At this moment, an old figure stood on a snow-capped mountain in the North Polar Region. Although his clothes were thin, he did not seem cold at all.

As the old man’s clothes fluttered in the wind, coupled with the falling snow, he seemed like a celestial being.

If there was another person there, they would discover that the old man’s feet did not touch the ground. In fact, the snow did not even fall on him. It was as though there was an invisible shield around him.

Hu! Hu! Hu!

The cold wind blew continuously at the old man, but he continued to stand there motionlessly.

His eyes were looking in the distance in the southwest direction. His fingers were moving as though he was calculating something as he muttered under his breath, “The heir to the Fog Rain Progeny has grown stronger… Moreover, the heir to the Kratos Progeny seems to have appeared… It seems like the day when the people of the Seven Absolutes Sect gather isn’t too far away!”

“The gathering of the Seven Absolutes? Old Prophet, that’s a fanciful dream you have.” Without knowing when, a beautiful woman had appeared on the snow-capped mountain as well. Although she was walking on the snow, there were no traces of her footsteps at all.

The beautiful woman had an exquisite face. Her near-perfect features were unforgettable once one had seen it.

She could not help but laugh when she heard the old man’s words.

“As far as I know, the sixth absolute, the Didymus Progeny, still remains unfound, right?” The beautiful woman said.

“The Didymus Progeny is in my hands… I’ve chosen the heir for it. Looking at the time, Wu Ying should be bringing that person here now,” the old man said.

“Yue Wu Ying? That wretched ladyboy?” Upon hearing the old man’s words, a hint of disgust flashed in the beautiful woman’s eyes.

As soon as the beautiful woman finished speaking, a feminine voice said, “Widow Hua, who are you calling a wretched ladyboy?” There was a hint of anger in that voice.

The voice seemed to come from nowhere. It did not seem like there was anyone else on the snow-capped mountain.

“I’m referring to that person with an androgynous voice! What? You’re upset? Don’t forget that your cultivation base is far beneath mine… You can fight me if you’re unhappy.” Upon hearing the feminine voice, the beautiful woman seemed to turn into a vixen.

“Humph!” The feminine voice only snorted. It seemed to have disappeared completely.

“You’re his elder. Why can’t you just leave him alone?” The old man sighed.

If Duan Ling Tian’s father, Duan Ru Feng, was here, he would definitely be able to recognize the old man. It was none other than the Old Prophet. In fact, he was also no stranger to the feminine voice from earlier. It belonged to Yue Wu Ying who had spent some time by his side.

The Seven Absolutes Sect had Seven Absolutes. The fourth absolute was the Dark Shadow. The heir to that progeny was good at assassination. They could be considered as the Kings of Assassination.

Yue Wu Ying was currently the heir to the Dark Shadow.

“Since the wretched ladyboy is here, I assume the heir to the Didymus Progeny whom you’ve chosen is here as well… Let’s go and meet them together!” The beautiful woman said.

Based on her words, it was obvious she was interested in who the Old Prophet had chosen to inherit the Didymus Progeny of the Seven Absolutes Sect.

At the same time, in the main hall of a palace that stood on a broad platform in the snow-capped mountain, two women’s voices sounded in surprise at the same time.

“Miss Xue Nai?!”

“You… Why are you here?” The young lady was also stunned when she saw the pair of twins before her eyes.

The young lady who walked into the main hall was none other than Han Xue Nai who was brought to the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land by her master. She was also the Eldest Young Miss of the Greenwave Mansion in the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land.

“Both of you are the ones whom the wretched ladyboy, Yue Wu Ying, brought?” Han Xue Nai asked in surprise after a few moments when she seemed to have recalled something.

“Xue Nai, I’ll say this again… I’m not a wretched ladyboy! My name is Yue Wu Ying… You can address me as Senior Brother Yue Wu Ying or Lord Yue Wu Ying!” The feminine voice sounded in the main hall again. It sounded terrifying.
