Upon returning to the Purple Heart Two Flames camp, without uttering a word, Zilan returned to his chambers and sealed it. He walked around the room piecing together what he had gotten from delving into Zest’s memories. At first, he was slightly confused as to why someone like Kring would pay so much attention to him. If he didn’t like …

Moments earlier, With Fujo tailing, Kifo silently led the scary calm Zilan towards the spot where Mo was located. Before they even arrived a great number of voices echoed out, “Truly despicable. So, what if he’s a top rookie? Disregarding our traditions and continuously slandering us Beasts is something we cannot forgive.” There was a crowd of people standing in …

“What?” Zilan awoke back in the chamber, stunned. “A day in the Cloud Inheritance Palace has passed and four hours have gone by in the physical world.” Repeated Hihi. Zilan was about to nod in understanding when Hihi following words caught him off guard. “Four hours since you got back from Origin that is.” “I don’t understand.” Said Zilan. “Your …

“Empress?” whispered Zilan, confused. He then shut his eyes and took in a deep breath, “It shouldn’t come as a shock to find out that someone with Grandmother’s abilities has such a high status. But…. the Rain Dragon King was actually her subordinate? And that ability…. how can something so rule-defying exist?” He then remembered his eyes and kept his …

“Hurry up and speak then.” Said Zilan. “Yes, yes…. Since you’ve successfully broken through to the soul-compression stage, you should now be able to gain access to most of the Second Level’s resources and abilities.” Hihi’s words flowed rapidly from his mouth fearing Zilan would fault him if he was too slow. “Most?” If Zilan said he wasn’t disappointed after …

Advancing to the soul-compression stage is an evolution of life itself. Zilan had now truly separated himself from mortality. He was now officially walking along the long, long, seemingly endless road to immortality. His soul had just experienced an evolution. Due to the fusion of his attribute along with the soul, what he currently possessed could be considered a ‘Water …

A blink later and Zilan was back in the cultivation chamber. However, before he could even heave a sigh of relief, he heard Hihi’s voice. “Finally, we’re back.” A red light then flashed out from the mark on his shoulder of the cloud Inheritance palace. The light then charged into his back where his wings were located before disappearing. “In …

As Zilan’s body was undergoing changes, his mind was also experiencing its fair share of developments. His consciousness stirred and in the next instance he woke up in a space that aside from being extremely bright appeared rather empty. There was nothing to see, nothing to marvel at, just emptiness. “Even I couldn’t foresee that we would be meeting so …

Zilan’s eyes immediately snapped open. Only this time, two glowing golden stars could be seen within his pupils. The scorched gates had been opened. A new world unravelled before Zilan as he stared at his surroundings however, his shock did not last long as the ‘pool’ or spring did not take kindly to its secrets being seen. This was against …

Zilan felt like he was in a dream yet he was conscious within this dream. He could feel himself trapped unable to wake up for some odd reason, no matter the strength or will power with which he commanded his eyes to open, nothing happened. His dream was filled with darkness. No sound, no light, it was like the birth …
