《Primordial Kingdom》 Chapter 1/Prologue : The New beginning "Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth." Gautama Buddha¡­.. Renaissance Era - 5666 years AP (After Pangu) ''Where am I?'' a being with natural ancient and domineering aura woke from his eternal sleep. As the ancient being looked around his newfound world, the being soon came to the realization that his vision failed to make anything out of this tangible world, as if the whole world around him were blurry. Whilst he was looking around, He saw a blurry silhouette looking at him with a curiosity shown in its eyes as if the silhouette was distinguishing his gender merely based on his mortal anatomy. The silhouette shouted something in a foreign language he never heard of " Er ist m?nnlich!". The ancient being felt humiliated, he felt as if he couldn''t resist the temptation to punch this silhouette in front of him since the mortal saw something he should''ve never ever seen, the most sacred part of his body, the bodily part that made these lowly mortals. ''I the Pangu have never ever felt this humiliated in my life. I''ve forever lived in solicitude because of these foolish mortals in the past. So daring yet weak. You''ve now committed a sin, unforgivable sin. A sin heavy enough for your soul to be imprisoned in my heavenly treasure ''Hell''. You''ve just opened your path for eternal suffering¡­blah¡­blah¡­blah¡­.'' The ancient being was in midst of his thoughts on how to make the mortal in front of him suffer the eternal suffering but he was disrupted by the sudden gesture of a woman like a mortal, carrying him onto her bearing. The ancient being for the first time in his perennial life saw the light, a Celestial like gaze filled with unwavering love look at him. He felt the world spinning around him as the gaze intoxicated him with love. His body felt warm as love swelled up from his inner being. The woman looked lovingly at the baby and said "˽¤Î¥Þ¥ó¥³¥Ü¥Ã¥µ¥Ü¥Ã¥µ(He is so cute)" In the next moment, the ancient being glowed with golden divine light. The being''s body was reconstructed from that of a mortal to immortal. But the golden divine light was invisible to mortals surrounding him. ''Is¡­. Is this the enlightenment I needed¡­..How could it be so simple¡­.My life¡­..My perennial life¡­..was wasted just because I couldn''t attain this enlightenment¡­.Because of this world shattered¡­¡­.I¡­I have no words to describe this feeling¡­.'' What the ancient being didn''t know was that the surrounding ''mortals'' were in a great stupor as the newborn baby in front of them didn''t make a single sound ever since its emergence in the world. As if the god himself has descended the room was in complete silence. The ''mortals'' were looking at the baby in a new born respect, every single ''mortal'' had a hint of respect and admiration in their eyes. There was two exception, though, the woman lying in the bed and the man who covered himself with the most expensive and extravagant attire. They both looked deeply into each other''s eyes and soon started laughing in a wholehearted manner. The laughing woke the ancient being from his inner thoughts, he looked around the room with a questioning gaze ''why in the world are they laughing?'' The ancient being noticed that his vision had turned normal, while he was looking at the female mortal who was holding him. The female mortal in front of him wore a lavish dress made out of rarely seen silk, with a red lavender petals decorated around the dress, outlining her body. However with all that said the almighty being only felt son to Mom kind of love for her, not a single bit of what people call lust. ''Wait, something is wrong here. I know this one was reincarnated to this baby but why was my vision blurry at first and I''m the master of all how come I can''t understand the language of these lowly ones? I should check my soul'' the ancient being suddenly sprung with the question and started scrutinizing his soul. He soon found out that there was a large crack in his soul. ''Hmm, I must have gotten this injury after I failed the tribulation. Unfortunately, I can''t heal it now but looking at the severity of it, I probably won''t be able to heal it until I reach Undying being level or find some miraculous healing treasure.'' The almighty being couldn''t help but sigh in his mind as words won''t come out his mouth. While he was lamenting over his ''tragic'' fate, the world around him was thrown into yet another chaos. In certain ancient dynasty, another baby was brought on to this world. It brought storm on to the world with its appearance. The storm was so powerful it brought many kingdoms to their demise as it was swallowed by the intense flood. And Billions of mortals fell to their last breathe. The world turned chaotic and nothing seemed to survive, it felt as if the heaven itself was announcing the birth of the calamity himself. ''I shall endure this inhumane torture as I shalt banish from this world, But beware as I bring with me the most nefarious of devil onto this world!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA (deranged laughter)'' I opened my eyes to see that I was still alive, and the first thing I felt was nothing but regret, the regret of being unable to break my shackles, shackles of tragic destiny. The destiny which was bestowed upon this righteous one by the heavens. My last words still lingered in my mind and the death felt so real. ''I thought I could finally rest but unfortunately, heaven has a different fate set for me''. I scanned the surrounding to see what happened to me and how am I still alive. Surprisingly my arms and legs were back to normal, normal and small?? Wait small? I brought my hand to my face. I became shocked, it felt so surreal. Did the Grimgar finally found the way to restore person''s age? Many questions started swirling around my mind but I was woken up by the sudden shout of a creature in front of me "¥¦¥ó¥³¤·¤Æ©` (Congratulation, it''s a boy, your highness)" Love what you''re reading? Discover and support the author on the platform they originally published on. ''¤ªÇ°³ô¤¤(The world outside has become chaotic with the storm hitting the three realms. Maybe the heaven itself is celebrating the birth of the new emperor, The one that shall bring the dynasty to a whole new prosperity.)'' The old man with a domineering and powerful aura answered the creature in a very profound voice with a hint of dao leaking through the fissure of his existence. The heaven and earth qi revolved around spawning the most spectacular tornado which then formed into the most dazzling mirror, which reflected the newborn baby and the seemingly unconscious woman behind it. ''Is that me in the mirror? And who''s behind me, a dead mortal?'' I saw my reflection in the mirror and some bleeding female mortal behind me. ''Is that the woman that allowed me to reincarnate back onto this fallen world if so I must thank her by avenging your death.'' I was sure that the domineering guy behind the creature in front of me is behind the death of my ''mother''. As I resolved on killing the culprit of the female mortal''s death I looked up and stared deeply at the creature in front of me. "Your majesty I see intelligence in the baby''s eyes, he must be a natural born cultivator" the beast said in delight. What it didn''t know at the time was that the baby in front of him already determined him as a dead man together with his highness behind him. The beast felt a sudden chill and started sweating profusely, but in fear of angering his highness the creature decided to keep quiet about it. "You are born as my heir, as my slave. You are nothing but another political tool that I have spawned, you better engrave this in mind and not have any weird thoughts" the domineering old man said so and threw inscription engraved talisman onto the head of the baby. This was a talisman used to enslave people, even effective to those at the level of immortal experts. Unfortunately for the old man, baby in front of him was unlike the usual ignorant baby full of innocence but a vengeful reincarnation of one of the greatest generals that fought alongside the gods against the evil of the world. And so unknown to the old man, moment after the talisman touched upon the baby it was repelled and destroyed since the soul of the general was too strong for this low-quality restriction talisman like this to enslave him. ''Humph, this old bastard sure is cautious one, unfortunately, you met me.'' thinking so and feeling satisfied with himself he closed his eyes embracing the fatigue that was eating up his consciousness and fell into a deep slumber. As the night descended, the world turned silent murmuring over its dreary fate of never ending labyrinth that shalt befall against the true fate himself. Wheel of fate-defying the silence of the world started rolling and sewing karma. The sky became dark and vengeful. Steaming shrouds of cloud coil and writhe. Then an unearthly caterwauling sound fills the air. The wind whips up into a frenzy. It is a shrieking, keening omen of the carnage to follow. The clouds race across the sky, thrumming with the charged energy they are desperate to release. "This must be the judgment day! Gods have descended! This must be the punishment for the sinful ones! Oh people understand or not the world has brought retribution to those who opposed the Gods!" the storm swirled washing away houses and living organisms. A beggar stood up bewildered by the sudden storm and a sudden dazzling light circled around him covering every inch of his body transforming him into that of the supreme cultivator. He has suddenly risen from a mortal to Immortal in the embryo stage. This unbelievable phenomenon transpired across the three realms, causing major and minor world''s power balance too greatly change. Sudden emergences of supreme cultivators started popping out of nowhere in the world. Some evil and some righteous others neutral. This day was remembered as an Awakening Chaos, with hundreds of supreme cultivators into the emergence and hundreds and millions of cultivators and countries were demolished by the storm. The new Kingdoms established over the disseminated kingdoms new replacing old. What used to be the weakest of the kingdom became the strongest. But the most detrimental and deathly change it brought onto this world was the evil and righteous churches. Grimgar and Saintly Monarch, these two churches with the same names of the most primordial churches good and evil materializing in three realms. Causing unprecedented chaos and distress. Many kingdoms which were peaceful suddenly engaged in world scale campaigns causing the downfall for superkingdoms, such that even two primordial kingdoms fell to their collapse. However, with all these changes in kingdoms two, one dynasty and one backwater small kingdom remained unfazed. Surprisingly none of the kingdoms surrounding the backwater small kingdom, High El Kingdom, attacked or even tried to invade the kingdom. As if there was an invisible line blocking other kingdoms from having any feeling/greed over the land. The other kingdom which used to be an Ancient Empire became a strongest Mortal Empire with an ancient kingdom under its banner, Celestial Chaos Dynasty and it became the most prosperous and powerful Mortal empire in a matter of a year. Chapter 2: Five years later "Man is by a nature Political animal" Aristotle Renaissance Era - 5671 AP (After Pangu) It was the day of the examination, a check up to see your talent in cultivation. In this small kingdom ignorant to the worldly chaos, a peaceful examination for the younglings were about to take place. In the city center, hundreds of children lined up waiting excitedly for their test to determine their position in society and thousands of people gathered to see the spectacle that was about to reveal as their beloved one''s ultimate fate reveals. The most exciting and at the same time depressing day for these benighted kids full of nothing but anticipation. First, one to set foot on the podium was the third son of the King, J a famous youth who birthed onto this world without shedding a single tear. A man of all men, a boy born to cultivate. The most likely boy to become the crown prince, attracting many of envious gazes upon him. He walked upright with the noblest like posture emitting an aura for a powerful cultivator. He was a boy who entered the ranks of cultivator when he turned three. A kingdom''s most renowned genius a love interest to a woman of all nature. He was named after the god of three realms Pangu, El Pangu. This backwater kingdom did not have any efficient high-tech device to determine the specific and sophisticated talent but a basic measuring stone shared by all. El Pangu walked up nearing the stone plaque and after closing just enough distance he extended his jade like white hand placing it on top of the stone. After few seconds of silence, the stone started to shine and displayed 10 colored columns showing the heaven-defying talent he had. The crowd went silence for a brief moment digesting the new unbelievable info and soon after people went berserk as they started chanting his name, the greatest of all talents in the kingdom, ''Pangu!'' ''Pangu!'' ''Pangu!'', the world turned upside down with the loud roars of thousands of citizens shaking the earth and air with the loud stomping and shouting. "He is our son, my husband" a woman first seen in the previous chapter who showed a great love for her newborn son which allowed him to get enlightenment spoke to her husband. "Yes indeed my wife, he shall bring our kingdom to a greater prosperity" answered a man with a Hitler-like mustache making him look more dictator-ish than ever. However, under his guise, there existed a hidden a worry that was causing great distress and troubled for over a long period time. The worry started ever since he found out about Pangu becoming a cultivator just after turning 3, as this was a ridiculously early age to become one. Normal people enter the ranks of cultivator after turning 5, while 4 being a genius. When people are born they start absorbing the heaven and earth qi naturally, and mostly it takes 5 years to form a string which acts as a qi container allowing the storage and usage of the qi. When the kid formed his first string, the natural absorption of heaven and earth qi stops and are forced to start cultivating a cultivation technique in order to absorb more qi. It is widely known fact that houses of nobles and rich people have a denser qi concentration as they place a qi stones in their houses. This allows the division in the society as this forces the richer to grow stronger as times passes. Making it mostly impossible for the poor to get stronger than nobles, which allows a stable kingdom with little to no rebellion from the peasants and common people. However this, in turn, causes great corruption and discrimination against the common people but the Royal family don''t have time to fret over things like this as they are all preparing for any incoming future invaders. All this is a matter of common sense, what truly affected the mindset of the king was the jealousy and envy his first and the second son feels for the third son. The king can''t help but get ominous feeling from these sons of his and with the grand revelation of the third son''s talent today, something bad ought to happen. "Big brother, what do you think should we execute our plan today?" the youth hidden by the ominous darkness asked toward the figure next to him. "It is not a good time yet, our father is feeling slightly suspicious of us so we better keep low for now" a figure slightly taller figure answered with a hint of anger hidden behind the words. Noticing the anger deep inside his big brother he decided to keep his mouth shut and resumed his observation of the even transpiring in front of him. He couldn''t help but feel jealous and clicked his tongue in frustration. " Tch, this son of a bitch just you wait you may have all the attention for now but it won''t be for long" No one noticed but under the mask of darkness, a hidden silhouette readied his dagger locking onto the two youth in front of it. With a great caution, he casted an illusion array around this room blocking the place from the crowd''s sight. He deeply exhaled and made his move. The man dashed toward smaller one with a godly speed exceeding the speed of light and slashed his dagger right at where the neck used to be. Noticing the sudden disappearance of his target, the man panicked for a moment but regained his composure and looked around the room but to his surprise, no living being could be seen. This eerily disappearance of his targets startled the assassin, and by the time he was about to escape, a sudden slash divided his upper and lower body. By the time the assassin noticed his bodily change he had his eyes wide staring at the great abyss of darkness in front of him. This content has been misappropriated from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere. Thud. The sound of a body falling on the floor could be heard inside this confined space. Confirming the death of their assassin two youths reappeared back in the same spot they disappeared. "Humph, to send such a weakling to kill us, nobles sure has fallen so low to the point of being dumb like a mutt" muttering without hiding his contempt toward the hirer of the assassin, and spat on the dead body. "He must''ve been one of the loyal supporters of my beloved third brother, I wonder what caused them great worry to the point of attacking the crowned prince without caring for the consequences" "I''m pretty sure those old fogies are scared of what we might do to that son of a bitch tch, they sure have fallen low" the two silhouette discussed as if the mutilated body behind them meant nothing. "Ugh¡­." The younger youth collapsed and soon his head fell off. Blood splayed everywhere around the room dyeing the room redder than ever. "I''m sorry my beloved second brother but you are nothing but a nuisance to my grand scheme, at least you could be of good use to me with your death" sighed as he looked at his small brother''s dead body and soon he walked out of the room. "Destroy my footprint in this room, make sure that I was never here!" The man spoke his command toward the empty air. With that said he disappeared into the nothingness. "Your Majesty" a man covered in all black suddenly emerged beside the king on the balcony where King and his wife the queen watched the spectacle of seeing many genii of High El Kingdom coming to the spotlight. King furrowed his eyebrow obviously feeling dissatisfied with the sudden disturbance in his peaceful time with the beautiful wife of his. "What''s so urgent for you to barge in here without gaining any permission" to the king''s answer man in black answered calmly "Majesty, your second son has been assassinated, his remain exists in second prince''s room." "What! Who dares to kill my El Clan''s descendent so openly! Catch and execute the culprit this instant!" the king shouted in rage as he stood up face fuming with anger. "Your majesty, the culprit was also found dead lying behind the Second Prince, our guess is that the assassin was not strong enough to escape the final blow of the second prince causing a mutual destruction." "Investigate the dead body and make sure to find the culprit no matter who the culprit are, bring his/her head in front of me!" the king commanded and fell to his chair. "I have to return back to my chamber" saying so he left the balcony and headed for his room while feeling dreary over the sudden death of his son. The queen also followed after and headed back to her room while seemingly normal at first glance but servants and maid heard the intense crying of the queen while passing by her highness'' room. Change of POV ''What''s wrong with these mortals, if my soul wasn''t this injured I would already be in undying being level.'' feeling sorry for myself I walked to my room feeling tired. Yes, tired, the great Pangu feeling tired after the grand ceremony in testing the talent. As soon as my result showed up people went berserk, with that said I had to be escorted by dozens of guards just so I could return back to the palace. All this was good but what made me tired mentally was the nobles and grand family members started sending me gifts and presents while wishing me luck for my cultivation. I as a man of honor and dignity couldn''t turn away these pitiful mortals so I had to greet everyone one by one. But I saw many with a hidden agenda and to them, I turned them away without any courtesy. As soon as I was about to start cultivating I was disturbed by the sudden news, news of my second brother''s death. I feel a bit sketchy about his death, rather I''m more surprised at the fact that crowned prince survived. Change of POV However, all this worldly affair didn''t affect Pangu''s mentality on cultivating as he started absorbing the heaven and earth qi while on meditation pose. The great Pangu is cultivating using the world first and most supreme manual Pangu''s Godly cultivation manual ranked Genesis Supreme grade. The absorption speed is stunning as his cultivation rose from qi condensation 5 to 6 in a matter of an hour, then 7 in no more than 3 hours. Just before he was about to break through from qi condensation 8 his soul started crackling forcing Pangu to stop because of the intense pain. Feeling something was not right Pangu scrutinized his soul, this time, he found a lightning in a shape of snake whirling around causing damage to his all mighty soul. ''what is this little snake doing in my soul'' feeling annoyed Pangu sent his powerful and purest qi attacking the snake, however, little lightning snake opened its mouth and absorbed all of what came gushing at it, allowing it to grow ever so slightly. "Humph to dare enter my soul you are courting death" feeling slightly humiliated Pangu chanted one of his most powerful restriction array ''Pangu Restriction array''. A golden web like chain sprung onto the Snake, even after a severe resistance, It was able to somehow able to shackle the snake''s movement but failed to completely destroy it. Feeling defeated Pangu had to stop with his meditation as he stood up from the lotus position and went to the library in order to gain more knowledge of this world. This was the first time he was going to get more detailed information about this world he was reincarnated into since library was locked to those younger than 5 who haven''t taken the talent exam. Chapter 3: The World and the Sect Renaissance Era - 5671 AP (After Pangu) ¡°Flow with whatever may happen, and let your mind be free: Stay centered by accepting whatever you are doing. This is the ultimate.¡± -Nan Hua Ch''en Ching Nothing seems to deter too much from the ancient past. My soul must''ve slept for quite a bit of time, around 5671 years to be exact. Well, I do kind of feel sorry for this shattered world but I found something quite interesting information in one of the text. It said that many of supreme cultivation manuals and techniques got lost during the shattering of the world. I see that''s why my parents who are supposedly a king has that low cultivation level, I guess the deterioration was quite powerful for them to be able to rule a kingdom with a mere spirit severing cultivation. All in all, this is a very good thing for me since I will be able to cultivate slowly with a damaged soul not worrying about others killing me. Change of POV Feeling quite satisfied with the result of his death Pangu left the library and went back to sleep in order for him to heal his wounds inflicted by the lightning snake. While Pangu was sleeping soundlessly another unbelievable incident unfolded hidden behind the curtains of darkness. "Thou art shall Summon the great force. Bring forth the blood rain SUMMON HEAVENLY SQUADRON! Bring down this insolent arrogant bastard! Show him no mercy!" however the shout of the king didn''t reach anyone as the castle in itself was covered in the illusionary array and a powerful one at that. " Hahahaha, were you calling these guys?" the man covered in all black asked in great contempt. As soon as the words came out of the man, ten soldiers all emitting a powerful aura materialized out of thin air wearing all white celestial like clothing. The celestial soldiers wore a mask covering their jade like smooth faces, the mask that depicted a sly fox with royal character engraved between the eyebrows. "Ha, how could the heaven squadron betray our El family? They are our most cared and matured by the most highest quality cultivation materials just so our royal family could have an elite soldier" the king realizing the grave situation he was in, staggered back nearly falling to his butt cheeks. "Who are you and what did you do with them!" feeling overwhelmed with the sudden tragedy he was facing, the king failed to keep his calm. But behind his dramatic display of emotions lay hidden a motive unknown to the enemy. The man in black raised his hand indicating to the celestial soldiers to accomplish their goal and get this whole thing over with. But just before the celestial soldiers initiate their attack to the king, the king''s hand had a massive qi gathered to shape ancient dragon. "Ancient tyrannical El Dragon strike!" with a loud shout came a gigantic twin headed azure dragon sweeping through the white clothed ex - heavenly squadron members. The attack was too fast which allowed no resistance from the celestial soldiers, with that all of them fell to their last breathe. However, this technique used his life force which completely depleted the kings remaining cycle of life. "Kuh, " *puh* coughed mouthful of blood "Who sent you here" The face paled and his eyes turned lifeless. With his remaining breath he could only ask this as he fell on the floor lifeless. "Tch, such a stubborn bastard killing our hard earned soldiers. How am I supposed to explain this to the higher ups" the man in black seemingly annoyed at his loss disappeared from the place leaving nothing but dead bodies of celestial soldiers and the king''s. But naturally, he made sure to take the interspatial rings of the king and the soldiers containing most of the wealth the king and the soldiers hoarded. Sun rose as it brought the sunshine over the calm kingdom bringing light to people''s sight together with the great tribulation for the kingdom. "Every now and then I guess we all think realistically about that day when we will be victimized with what is life''s final common denominator--that something we call death. An enemy of all mankind, even the greatest of experts are vulnerable to it. Four decades ago, our fathers brought forth upon this continent the most prosperous of all the kingdoms the High El Kingdom. We cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this ground he has founded for us. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the great task remaining before us. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here." A man was wearing a crown which had great El family''s symbol engraved on it. That man kowtowed to the statue in front of him, his own father. Showing his utmost sincerity he can muster from the faultiness of his words. A seemingly real tear fell down his cheeks as if begrudgingly cursing the heaven for the unfairness. Pangu looked at this foreplay in front of him with a smirk on his face, disdaining the act of Patricide the man in front of him had kept hidden behind the nobleness of his action. Today held a great funeral for his majesty El Jian and a greater ceremony of crowning the crowned prince, placing him on the throne. This caused many controversy topics to arise among the citizens of High El kingdom. "did you hear about that?" man in common uniform murmured to his friend next to him, "about what?" his friend answered with uncertainty, "about that man, that Crowned prince, El Hectic killed his highness the king", "what is that for real?" "Probably, look didn''t he become the king even though a new genius emerged within the El family" "True that" "Shush, don''t talk shit about our new king" man who was standing in front of the two shushed them as it might cause their heads to fall off if any soldiers of El family were to hear of it. Stolen from its rightful author, this tale is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings. After a peaceful and uneventful ceremony came a sudden decree from the new king and the changes it brought within the kingdom was massive. "Beheading of all the ''rebels'' of the Royal family is to be executed (named all of the Pangu supporters), as a replacement of them we brought in our allied countries'' second in power great Tian family elders to become a part of our great El family! This is to support stability and form a better foundation for our great kingdom" "The new king is really bold! To dare even invite a foreigner to govern our kingdom!" unfortunately with this happening Pangu lost all his supporters and the king further solidified his place in the royal court. Pangu as a five years old in this world was entitled to enter a sect to further improve his cultivation, however, as an ex-immortal, he felt great disdain toward these degenerated sects filled with nothing but greedy bastards killing fellow disciples for any benefits they can acquire. However with all that said with an injured soul he needed a vast amount of medicines and pills in order to move forward in cultivation quicker. After that night Pangu''s cultivation rose from qi condensation peak 7 to foundation building by forming a Perfect pillar indicating the vast talent had. He had to stop there as the snake resumed its attack on his soul. Feeling slightly dissatisfied with the snake disturbing his cultivation to greatness tried once more attacking it. This time, Pangu succeeded in forcing the snake to decline its length by a millimeter. As a newly formed foundation expert, he used the ''Hidden Pangu technique'' to hid his cultivation and lower it down to 6th level in qi condensation. As a third son of the king, he got a special treatment in entering the Soaring dragon sect. He went inside as an outer sect disciple rather than a handyman whom must enter first. "Young master this is the sect you are entering from today onward till age 13" a person in a butler costume bowed down respect toward Pangu. "This is it, I was feeling confined in that boring place so it might as well be a good vacation for me" feeling elated from leaving the castle where every movement of his was monitored by the guards and maids. In front of Pangu laid a large Chinese like ancient castle with a large Board in the gate with a Soaring Dragon Sect written on it. The place was far bigger than the castle in High El kingdom. This place contained many of the young masters from nearby countries since this was one of the strongest Ancient Sect nearby the kingdom with Supreme Spirit severing masters as their ancestors. You could hear a loud roar of students practicing Heavenly Dragon Kung Fu style fighting technique in a mob. The scene was spectacular as thousands of students lined up in a war like formation while practicing at an exact time and speed with the same posture and movement trying to follow along with the teachers in front. And when thousands of people those the same exact poses it creates a grand and imposing aura. There existed a variety of people in a different age group, some were tall and looked old while others looked small and young. "Young Master, this is the Heavenly Dragon Kung Fu style one of the supreme human grade fighting techniques in this world! As an outer sect everyone is obliged to study this Fist martial art, and if you want any other techniques you must enter into the inner disciple." "Humph a mere human grade technique no matter supreme or not are but weak martial art for mortals," Pangu said so while feeling humiliated from being shown such a weak and incomplete martial arts. "Tch, young master you better not underestimate this martial arts since it is definitely better than the martial art you were given in the kingdom." The servant said so without any courtesy since he felt nothing but a disdain and maybe a slight pity to the boy in front of him as only a tragic fate awaits this young genius after entering the sect. ''Heh, you can act all high and mighty now but just wait till you get in this sect, there are many allies and spies my master has paid to destroy your cultivation'' After crowned prince ascended to the throne he implanted many of his people near Pangu as a spy and an informer on the latest course of action Pangu is taking. This so because the new king is afraid of Pangu being too talented and might shake his position as a king. So before anything might happen the king decided to kill him in the sect, since if he died in the sect no one in the kingdom would be able to blame him for killing him. The new king even bribed many teachers and disciples in the sect to spy on him while announcing that he is willing to reward anyone who was able to kill Pangu a 100 thousand lower human grade spirit stones. So from the standpoints of the servants and maids, Pangu was destined to die without any chance of survival since he is too young. Knowing the thoughts of the servants next to him Pangu ignored the contempt they had for him and just walked into the sect after showing the letter of introduction to the disciple working as a guard. Pangu stepped foot inside the sect while admiring the hard work the disciples were showing with their rhythmic practice of their martial art. He saw some talented disciples showing a one with a world level, quite good for a retrogressed world he now lives in. While in midst of his thoughts, many disciples looked up and saw Pangu. they matched his appearance with the jade slip they were given by the King El Hectic and got excited since they found an easy money bag they can use to earn big money Chapter 4 What makes a genius a genius Renaissance era 5671 AP (after Pangu) ¡°Leave behind the passive dreaming of a rose-tinted future. The energy of happiness exists in living today with roots sunk firmly in reality''s soil.¡± Daisuke Ikeda......... "Yes father, I understand I won''t dare go against your order." Wearing what most people call it as the highest quality silk designed by the best designer in the dynasty a dressing for the royals, the youth kneeled in one leg and showed his absolute obedience toward the emperor in front of him. "You have shown your heaven-defying talent to our clan, however, don''t get arrogant and foolish as I can squash you like an ant anytime I want! Leave I don''t want to see your filthy face again in front of me!" with an absolute grace the emperor reprimanded the prince who beaten up one of his favorite concubines. This was the dynasty which placed strength above anything since the prince''s mother died soon after giving birth to him, she was seen as fragile and weak. Which in turn caused the clan members to disdain and scorn the mere existence of the prince. But this all changed during the testing of talent in the clan where all five years olds similar to High el kingdom were tested for their talent. Compared to the High El Kingdom the testing of the imperial clan was far grander and imposing as millions of citizens came as an audience to witness the rise of uber geniuses. This testing only included the main house members and first in line branch members, this was to clearly demonstrate the terrifying strength of main house compared to the branch members and at the same time show a distinctive difference in power between other powerful clans. Even thought the prince showed his might he still was seen as a collared dog who was under absolute control by the emperor since it was a wide known fact that since birth he was forcibly placed an enslavement talisman on his body. This made him completely unable to defy the orders of the king with that no one in the main house was scared of ''disgracing'' him. Especially, Chaos Vlad who was an adept at bullying the disgraceful rat, Chaos Ares. As a son of Supreme Elder who held great power and influence, the emperor had to turn a blind eye upon the harsh tormenting things he did towards the prince. "Ey You little missy Ares come here and let me teach you some good lesson!" soon after exiting the emperor''s room a fat youth with an ugly face filled with disgusting pimples which seemed to be ready to burst out anytime soon, called Ares who ignored the ugly taunting the little fatty did. This little fatty was known as one of the biggest debouche of the Heavenly Chaos clan, an only son of Supreme Elder, Chaos Vlad. "Fatty fuck off before I knock your head off your neck" Ares transmitted his irritated voice over fatty making him shiver with fear. It was unknown to the public but fatty was once was under Ares''s feet as it crushed his bones and inner organs. This caused a great fear to sprout inside fatty''s mind and ever since then he was acting in all accordance to the orders of Ares. ''This dumb son of a bitch, if I didn''t have to create a careful plan in order for me to completely take over this empire without a hitch, I would''ve had executed your ugly and fat life of his.'' grunting inside his head Ares kicked the fatty which caused the fat body of his to be blasted a kilometers far crushing the tiles under. "Ouch, I''m the sorry boss I won''t ever be arrogant in front of you again" touching his painful buttocks fatty apologized in a seemingly miserable and humble look. Despite the act of being humble and all, he despised this bully of his to the core. Ever since that incident, he couldn''t sleep without having a nightmare of being under the stinky foot of the rat prince. ''grr, this bastard I''m going to torture and kill him after this stupid curse of mine wear off!'' swearing to the heavens while believing in his great luck, fatty trusted that the binding that bounded him together with the rat prince would come off sooner or later. Disheartened by his tragic fate fatty could only curse in his mind since if any of it ever spill out of his mouth he will be under an intense pain which would then cause him to have absolutely horrifying never ending diarrhea for weeks. This would continue on until he repents on his action and apologizes wholeheartedly to the prince. "Humph, feel lucky that you are still alive" Saying so the prince left the hall, walking toward his room while feeling irritated at the recent incident which caused him to nearly be caught by his tail on his great plan. Luckily enough, he was quick witted and blocked the absolute disaster by punching concubine of the emperor to the point of her collapsing and losing her memory. The prince entered his room and locked the place with an illusionary array so he could completely concentrate on his cultivation. "I need to hurry my cultivation before that old man catches the sight of my plan, just a little more and I can do my first Spirit Severing" feeling threatened by his old man, he cultivated frantically contrasting to the leisure and chill cultivation method of Pangu. This clearly showed a great difference in their cultivation method and their mindset. Him being a supreme commander didn''t mean he was the strongest as there were millions of immortals way stronger than him. However, for Pangu who reached the pinnacle of cultivation in the Three Realm, there was no one above him. However, with all the advantages Pangu had with cultivation methods and techniques, Ares didn''t lose out when comparing their cultivation resources. As a prince born in a powerful dynasty, he was granted millions of spirit stone every day which greatly accelerated his cultivation. And unlike Pangu he was solidifying his position in his clan allowing him to have a better living condition and status than Pangu. "Mordred clan has been reported recently for suspicious activity, Prince has been obedient and dares not disobey your majesty''s orders, we were able to gain a secret information from our greatest espionage, Chaotic Stealth that the Ancient Kingdom in the northern border was preparing a great military campaign against our first and second rate cities. The leader seems to be an Immortal Genesis cultivator of demonic martial arts" man in a butler uniform read out the lists of the recent news happening around the dynasty. The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation. "Command the troops of Chaotic Heart level to defend our great dynasty and annihilate the demon race, let none survive!" the emperor with domineering and chaotic aura commanded his new decree. Him hating the demon race was no secret since he was one of the instigators of the terrifying massacre of foreign races throughout the Dynasty. This exterminated many of the prominent clans that were ruled by a foreign race other than humans. All this was successful with the help of Saintly Monarch church. However, this angered the nearby demonic kingdoms and as a result one of the prominent ancient kingdoms decided to launch a secret ambush. However, this secret information was caught by the Saintly Monarch church in which informed the great espionage of the Chaos clan. No one knew how and why the emperor started hating the demonic beings. It''s as if his possessed by a ghost. His dedication to annihilate the demonic tribes and clans reached the heaven. What''s surprising was that one of his concubines was a demon but she was killed during the demonic hunt. The changes in the king''s attitude could be seen after the prince turned 3 and reached the peak qi condensation. Some even speculated that the prince was the cause of all this, however, this sort of rumor was brushed off as an impossibility. As if any rumor that was about the prince disappeared like a vaporized water. Grand army of hundreds of thousands started their march on their campaign to annihilate the enemy force the Dryad ancient kingdom ruled by the demons. The commander of this war was a Supreme cultivator in Chaotic soul level, Chaos Python a heroic general who brought great victories to the Mortal Empire. Chaos Python was one of the most trusted generals the emperor had. (Chaotic heart level = Nascent soul or higher) (Chaotic soul = Immortal Genesis) The emperor has already judged the outcome of war, decisive victory over the demons. But this was to say a bit too overbearing. Unbeknownst to him the prince already made a contact with the demon patriarch in the ancient kingdom and gave him a massive amount of war materials to further strengthen the massive army of the demons. In exchange, he asked the demonic patriarch to spare the kingdom and kill the Emperor while allowing me to ascend the throne. Many of the Chaos clan members saw the shortsightedness of the emperor and felt quite a big dissatisfaction toward him. It could be seen on many occasions such that two of the Supreme elders didn''t participate in the talent examination event, showing an unwillingness to comply. It was estimated that the confrontation between the two sides will partake in another 3 - 4 days. Many high echelon clan members viewed this as a perfect opportunity and gave Demons many benefits so that they had more chance to win. The biggest supporter was the prince and the younger brother of the Emperor, Chaos Darth who boasts of his power which might rival his brother. As the instability in the clan continued, Ares meditated in the middle of the day while gazing at the beautiful sunset. "Weeds by the Flower Bridge blossoms, At Heavens below me, the setting sun hangs above. The swallows of the former noble families, Has now flown into the homes of the common people." A light revolved around Ares as he received a great insight to the true primordial chaos energy. "I am all evil and righteous, righteousness will not hinder my inner devil as well as my devilishness won''t affect my righteousness. Yin needs Yang and Yang supports Yin." "What is the meaning of all this foolery in this world. Am I truly able to truly discard my revenge for a greater power?" Ares questioned his resolve as it became shaky with the new enlightenment he just received. Even an almighty being one day has to fall. So what''s the point of becoming strong? The powerful resolve in him circulated out an aspiring answer: Immortality is when revenge becomes our Karma. Revenge is what fuels the power at the same time and its need. With this new enlightenment, he was able to successfully jump from peak nascent soul to 3rd spirit severing. He severed his hindering emotions and successfully elevated his revengeful ideas to an extreme. The youth stood up from the lotus position as he had all his filth removed from within his body and meridians as the ooze filled his clothes and skin. He smelled like a beggar who hasn''t showered for months. Feeling exhausted he dragged his fatigued body to the shower and slept there. "I shall execute my plan after entering the ranks of Immortals" Keeping that in mind his consciousness left his mind as it wandered around the world of unknown. As he was floating in the spiritual world, Pangu entered the spiritual world at the same time. Karma of the Primordial world was about to be sewed together forming the ancient cycle of fate. The spiritual consciousness of the two primordial beings who reached their supreme level in their own rights was about to be bundled together forming the ever eternal chaos. Chapter 5 Floating in the Void Renaissance era 5671 AP (after Pangu) "A gem will be polished without carving and polishing, nor a man perfected without trials." -Chinese proverb Nothingness spread around this intangible world filled with the spirits of trillions of cultivators many unconscious and some cultivating their spiritual self. As a creator of this world himself, Pangu has the very right to administer this virtual spiritual world used by the cultivators to strengthen their spirits. So using this he spreads his awareness around the sect he is disciplined under. Looking through fellow disciple''s spiritual awareness, Pangu came to know of many things. Such as the people who were bribed by his mortal brother. Feeling nothing but scorn for these foolish fellow disciples, Pangu decided to them with his divine sense. Unfortunately for them the world they lived in allowed for them to study the third rate cultivation methods which clearly failed to protect them from the impending disaster as their mind fell into disarray causing them to become a cripple. The divine sense for the Pangu reached 10km while being in a foundation building expert, compared to other foundation experts this length could be said to be a heaven-defying level. As their divine sense could at most reach 1km while being a foundation building expert. "They sure are ignorant, and unfortunately for these fools that their target was this great me" Pangu muttered it under his breath hiding no contempt toward them. While being the world greatest expert Pangu, he felt that this reincarnation of to this world was too easy with no fun. Feeling slightly bored with his new life with no real challenge Pangu decided to gift his brother yet another chaos. "Maybe this will teach my ignorant of brother some lesson" Pangu made some movement with his hand depicting symbols after symbols. And soon enough a light fell upon the High El Kingdom. The light pillar hit one of the child female beggars who was about to die of starvation. "You have been chosen as the next great ruler of this Kingdom! I shall grant you with the right to become a JADE EMPEROR!" the sound echoed inside the beggar''s head as the pillar of light surrounded the little girl. The pillar pierced through her inner workings, bloating the body with a holy light reconstructing her body inside out. She advanced from a mere mortal lying down waiting for her death to an immortal with vast fortune and talent awaiting her. As new information surged into her mind, things like mid grade Mythical cultivation methods and techniques. Her mortal bloodline was replaced with that of Apostle one of the greatest natural cultivators after Fiendgods. Her ragged and unwashed blonde hair turned blue with great luster shining like a bright star as if she was a Nuwa herself, her eyes color changed from brown to green mystifying her whole character with ultimate beauty. Her appearance as a whole changed, she now looked more Goddess like that has the appearance to cause thousands of countries to fall. With her aptitude remolded she became one of the heaven-defying talents that pierce through this continent causing further change into the degenerated world of hers. Using up most of his energy in the spiritual world, Pangu had to shut off his connection to the world and place a restriction array to protect him from any harm from spiritual world or physical world. "This damn snake, if only you weren''t here I could''ve just destroyed this puny mortal for even having a thought to kill me. Now I can only cripple them for about a year only and they will return normal." While feeling really dissatisfied with the snake and its interference toward his advancement in cultivation, Pangu had to admit that this little snake inside of him was really resilient and patient. Hidden in a dark array, a little girl no older than 10 was unconscious. And behind her muddy face lay hidden a heaven-defying beauty unknown to all. She bore a blue hair which seemed to have lost its godly luster hidden beneath the dirt, and green eyes under her uncut hair that seems to be seeing the truth of the world. Waking up from the unconsciousness, she looked around feeling sluggish and tired. Nothing unusual from her usual life With her skinny legs, outlining the bones inside, she dragged herself to the well. However, unlike every other day, she felt the trip to the well seemingly a lot easier. Her body barely being able to support her undernourished body, the leg started shaking from trying to carry her light weight body. As she was moving toward the well, she felt a strong migraine in her head as foreign knowledge started to unfold inside the tiny head of hers. Her eyes shone with luster coming back alive from the dead. "Ugh, it hurts, mommy¡­." feeling nothing but miserableness and pain in herself she fell to the floor. Nearly losing her consciousness from the surge of a huge migraine, she looked up at the sky. "I curse you! I curse you the heavens for ever giving birth to the pain itself!" the young lady fell unconscious with her last words outlining the hate she had for heavens. "¡­.Jade void transformation¡­¡­." in her sleep unknown to her, the body cultivated by itself, absorbing the heaven and earth qi like a vacuum. The heaven and earth qi started rushing like a tsunami waves to the little girl''s body as it greedily absorbed every single one of them. Feeling the sudden disturbance in the surrounding qi experts started to wake up from their cultivation and looked at the direction it came from. Since the beggar had no experience in cultivating she didn''t know the great disturbance she caused would greatly change the course of her future. This text was taken from Royal Road. Help the author by reading the original version there. Nearby clan experts started emerging from their bases and started to investigate the reason for such disturbance. But many experts came back empty handed as they couldn''t pinpoint the origin of this disturbance as they only saw some beggars on floor sleeping or living a beggar life. "Somebody must''ve broken through, hmm well I might as well as check it out since the occurrence is really close to the clan base and I might get a chance to get an enlightenment myself" Feeling slightly curious over this sudden disturbance Xia clan patriarch went outside to see the source of this sudden disturbance. And just as he left the door he saw a female beggar on the pavement sleeping or seemingly unconscious. Looking at her with pity he checked her pulse to see if she was still alive. But to his surprise the moment his finger placed onto her neck, a dense qi surrounded her petite and fragile body, girl protecting her from any outer harm. This caused him to feel slight something familiar emitting out of her body, something only strong has. An aura of an expert. This new discovery truly put him into a stupor as he unblinkingly looked at the little girl in front of him. He as an old cultivator he understood what this truly signified. It meant that beggar in front of him is a heaven-shattering genius who will in future control winds and rains moving mountains killing the evildoer. He felt ecstatic at the unearthing of the unpolished jade destined for greatness. W ith a quick though he placed a restriction talisman he got as a gift from the contribution during the war, onto the girl''s neck. This was an enslavement talisman used to enslave young and innocent kids to follow every order allowing no disobedience. The downside of this low-quality talisman was that it will become ineffective when the enslaved person reaches a certain level in cultivation. But it is far more than enough item to control the little beggar in front of him. "Heh, I can control this beggar by giving her a shelter and food since she will be thankful to me and be indebted to help. But just in case I shall bestow upon her a title of a slave." feeling great with his intelligence Xia patriarch laughed his ass off. Xia patriarch then picked the little beggar off the floor and went straight back home. "Call the Rem&Ram twins, and tell them to take care of this little girl she is now going to be my daughter" commanding his servant for the new task, Xia Patriarch called upon his two sons. "Sons I have adopted a new girl into our clan, she will become one of you fool''s future wife so you better take care of her" "But father, why did you adopt a filthy beggar into our Xia clan?" "But dad, I don''t want to marry a filthy beggar!!" Two of the Xia patriarch''s son complained as they felt humiliated to even thinking of marrying a beggar. "Shut up you fools, I will change my mind if that little girl doesn''t reach foundation stage in another year, now go back to what you were doing. Wait, Jian." "What dad?" "Next time I see you fucking around with those filthy prostitutes I will disown you, now fuck off" slightly pissed at his debouche of a son, Xia patriarch scolded his youngest son. ''with this, our Xia bloodline''s talent will increase for sure hehe hehe'' ??? "Hmm it seems like a little girl got the power, her destiny has changed and now her tribulations will be greater" profound words filled with greater dao came out of Pangu as he opened his eyes. "I am heavenly dao himself, as I rule the world!" as soon as those words came out of Pangu, heavenly dao of three realms fell towards him and formed a heavenly dao core, elevating him from a mere foundation expert into core formation. ''Heavenly dao is a true peak of the dao of heaven as it far more profound than a greater dao'' ??? Ares woke up from the virtual spiritual world and felt strange that every cultivator he saw had no protection or whatsoever for their soul. "hmm, did the cultivation method degenerated to the point of missing the crucial spirit resisting techniques? Well, this is a good thing for me for now" feeling contended with the worldly degeneration, Ares resumed his cultivation. ??? "We are the grand army of heavenly Chaos Clan! We allow no intruder into our homeland, and advise you fools to back off from the border!" a man seemingly a messenger shouted these lines as he stood in front of the massive army of heavenly Chaos clan, feeling proud. And in front of them was another grandeur army consisted of demons all wearing extravagant golden armor showing off their great wealth. Pew An arrow flew in a light speed and hit the messenger, killing him in a single strike! ??? "Where am I" an unfamiliar roof was seen as soon as she opened her cute petite eyes. Feeling uncomfortable she got up and soon she noticed that she was actually sleeping in a bed, a comfy bed. "What? Why am I in such a place?" feeling curious she looked around the room trying to find any clue as to why she was ''teleported'' or ''transported'' to this unknown room. Few minutes after her awake, two people came knocking on the door and entering the room. The two people wore a maid like an outfit and were both female. One had a blue hair similar to the beggar''s new hair color and the other one had a red hair. They both shared a similar haircut, as both were bob cut. "Umm, why I am here?" the curious girl asked the newly entered couple. "Young lady, master has felt pity for you and your miserable fate" a red haired maid answered her question "Sis, don''t be so mean...She is just a little girl" the blue haired girl feeling a slight familiar connection with her rebutted her ''sister'' for being harsh. "Humph, a mere beggar should be feeling happy our master even took a look at her" "Shush, what if master heard that, you will be punished!" The maids had a hard time trying to adopt to their new young lady who had a worse background than them.
