Outside the tournament site.
A strange aura had descended on the scene since the angry cultivator had cursed at the newcomer earlier. To the low-level cultivators present, it was akin to the sensation of having their skin scraped off layer by layer, and excruciatingly too.Meanwhile, the sensation was super magnified in the senses of the more powerful cultivators on the scene, especially the elder overseeing the tournament. In his mind, he cursed the foolish disciple who had no idea of the immensity of heaven and earth.The Chancellor glanced stonily at the elder and said, "Is this how you train the students of our Astral University, to lack manners and basic etiquette? It seems I've been away for too long."The elder shivered at these words. Although he hadn't met the Chancellor face to face before and only knew about him from rumours, the reputation of the Chancellor who also held the title of Supreme Elder in the Law Enforcement Offices acrossLatest Chapter
Little Fao
The scene in the cultivation field was very harmonious as the couple hundreds of youngsters moved and breathed in sync under the morning sun, all proactively circulated the Red Yang Furnace Art. On close inspection, one could make out a thick sheens of reddish-gold mist enveloping their bodies and tempering their constitutions as they exercised.By the time the sun loomed brightly overhead at noon, most of the youngsters had ended their practice. Although cultivating the Red Yang Art still yielded gains after the purple Qi of the morning sun had passed, it was negligible in comparison, and a smarter investment was to consume Yang Pills directly instead. However, there were still a couple of youngsters who remained in the yard to practice.One of them was a handsome young man who had a dazzling sun mark on his forehead. On the surface, he was Zhao Fao, a genius cultivator from the House of Zhao who recently apprenticed under the Vermillion Sunfire Sect, but unbeknownst to anyone, he wa
Parting
Two days later, Zhao Fao glanced speechlessly at Jiang Ping who was in high spirits. Somehow, the latter had stumbled upon a hidden legacy in the mortal district of unknown origin and gotten himself an unparalleled art of concealment, unique enough to fully eliminate the Slaughter Maniac's influence on him. "I told you so," Qing Qing mumbled to the surprised Zhao Fao. At the same time, she pestered her husband to share the inheritance with her."I can't, it's soul bound and the content can't be replicated," was his reply.Meanwhile, Zhao Fao was secretly communicating with his system, "What kind of physique exactly does he have?" He was talking about Jiang Ping.[It's the Ominous Harbinger Body, a one in a million occurrence. Your father has quite the fortune] It went on to explain that this rare physique was no less significant than the top physiques.Apparently, this physique typically appeared once every thousand eons. Generally, the environment of the host determined its expressi
The Harbinger's Uniqueness
Ultimately, Zhao Fao's sixth sense, honed by his Heart as Arrow, Will as Bow intent, allowed him sense the situation of things even before he arrived on the scene in person.The situation seemed dire; Jiang Ping lay convulsing on the ground while Qing Qing's aura was raging violently as she held Aunt Wang in a tight grip. Zhao Fao sucked in a cold breath."Undo whatever sorcery you just performed!" Qing Qing's fury was palpable as she screamed at the older lady. "NOW!"Aunt Wang looked lost for words, "I....I..... I""What the hell happened?" Zhao Fao felt a pang of discomfort seeing Jiang Ping writhing in pain. While he had speculated on the possibility of an incident in two hours, he hadn't thought it would manifest as an accident."She inflicted him with some unknown curse, it's presently corroding his true soul!" Qing Qing explained. Her voice held a tinge of desperation and helplessness.If she were here in her alternate body, the Spirit Queen, it would barely cost anything to el
Mission Completed
Strangely, Zhao Fao did not burst into expletives at the random mission announcement. Instead, his forehead creased into fine lines as he furrowed his eyebrows, lost in thought.In itself, the mission details were not at all pleasant, but he was more concerned at the obvious discrepancy in the reward and mission duration included. Having had the system for a while now, he was well aware that it wasn't one to exaggerate mission penalities for no reason.In other words, it was very likely that the seemingly casual mission had some hidden significance. Putting two and two together and analyzing the mission details, Zhao Fao began to suspect that something was probably bound to happen to Jiang Ping within the next two hours.Actually, these tidbits of details were not enough to jump into this conclusion, but Zhao Fao had the passive enhancement of the Divine Wisdom Skill which granted him terrifying intuition that bordered on deductive foresight. Hence, he was almost certain his analysis
Returning to the Mortal District
During this time, Zhao Fao's parents had left the room so he could meditate in quiet. Now that he was awake, he got up and went in search of them.To his suprise, he found them sharing a romantic moment as they gazed at the sunset outside. Instinctively, Zhao Fao recoiled and made a U-turn."Hehe, how do you think you were made?" Qing Qing was apparently a very mischievous woman as a nasty smile appeared on her face when she noticed the cringe on her son's face.Zhao Fao's expression was dark and he stole a glance at the man's whose face was a perfect, albeit older replica of his. Jiang Ping's cheeks were flushed, clearly embarrassed."By the way, your father and I were discussing the future," Qing Qing suddenly turned serious and spoke with a heavy tone.Zhao Fao noticed Jiang Ping's gaze turn downcast at this moment and could not help but ponder if this was because his mother had said 'the future' and not 'our future'. After all, going by the plan, he and Qing Qing would bought leav
Universal Obelisk Function
It turned out that the Universal Obelisk had the function of binding fate. In other words, once the wielder utilized it, it could bind to the fate of any target without any consequences or backlash, and even when the bound target experienced any setback, the connection could be reset and the wielder could move on without worries.While the concept of fate-binding did not exactly sound overpowered, it actually was. Fate was an abstruse domain with extremely potent potential.If the target of the fate binding was set to a golden-tier world for example, cultivating within it made one the equivalent of a Son of Heaven, having no setbacks in cultivation and enjoying the perks of being the luckiest in the realm, unlocking opportunities left right and center. With this treasure, one was guaranteed to grow to the peak without fear of falling.For those cultivators hoping to break through to the ninth cultivation realm, they had long strengthened their foundations
