"It’s impossible that I will die, right?" Yuan Bei tightly clenched his jaw, his face showing signs of fear as he fled from the pursuit of a fierce beast.

Seeing the tiger’s steps getting closer, Yuan Bei, unable to do anything, chose to enter an ancient cave in front of him. But to his surprise, the tiger continued to follow him.

"I can't... There’s no way out," his body trembled as the sharp fangs of the tiger came into view before his eyes.

"Mom... Dad, Yuan Bei is truly unfilial, a worthless child like me has such a terrible fate... Please forgive me." Closing his eyes in resignation, the tiger leapt toward him.

BAM!

But strangely, Yuan Bei only felt his body being pushed and then crashing into something hard. When he opened his eyes again, his vision blurred, and black and golden smoke billowed from an ancient stone that had accidentally shattered upon striking Yuan Bei’s body.

The tiger, wanting to toy with its prey, shook its body. As it prepared to pounce, an explosion of energy spread, followed by the destruction of the tiger's body.

BOOM!

The event happened so quickly, but Yuan Bei didn't realize it. Instead, he felt a pain unlike anything he had ever felt before.

"Ahhh!"

His blood seemed to be boiling, and the sound of bones cracking within his body rang in his ears. This intense pain continued for some time.

"W-what is happening to me? This pain..." Rolling on the ground, Yuan Bei didn’t understand what was happening to his body.

However, inside his body, his meridians—those once considered defective—suddenly began to connect. Yuan Bei didn’t realize it at all, and the pain had left him helpless, lying on the ground.

Five hours later.

He regained consciousness, as though nothing had happened, and tried to rise. He felt lighter than ever before and could sense the natural Qi energy enveloping his body.

"Warm and gentle." This expression was something Yuan Bei didn’t realize as he had now understood the basics of Qi energy.

Swuuuuuuung!

However, another surprising event occurred. The pain in his body had ceased, but now it transferred to his head.

"Akkkh!" He screamed inside the ancient cave.

The pain suddenly began to subside. Strangely, in his mind, he received vast knowledge about the Cultivator world. From combat techniques, alchemist knowledge, to even the fundamental stages of cultivation.

"Where is this knowledge coming from?"

He received no clear answer, until suddenly, the roar of a tiger echoed through the cave.

Groooooooarh!

"Damn..."

Hearing the sound of the tiger’s steps approaching deeper into the cave, Yuan Bei's expression grew worse. Soon, a tiger appeared clearly before his eyes.

"Is my fate truly this bad?!" Yuan Bei shouted, which made the tiger leap and swipe its claws at him.

BOOM!

But when Yuan Bei closed his eyes again, a golden-red fireball shot out from his body. The fireball instantly destroyed the tiger’s body with a single sweep.

"Why is my fate so miserable! I ended up with a master who doesn’t understand anything about the Cultivator world! Even unable to face a beast!" A young girl's voice echoed in the cave.

Startled, Yuan Bei opened his eyes. He looked around for the source of the voice, but saw no one, except for a black and golden fireball floating in front of him.

"Who are you looking for?"

Yuan Bei, who was already terrified, began to sweat coldly.

"Tchh! Tchhh! Damn it, I really met someone like you... Now how am I supposed to show you the true nature of this fire..." The fireball spoke dismissively.

"What do you mean?"

"You should be proud. Not only did you get me as a destined partner, but you also possess the knowledge of the Dragon Emperor from the past! But seeing your stupidity, I’m truly disappointed!"

Yuan Bei paused, processing the words, and then suddenly, a memory flashed in his mind. This memory was none other than the tragic event that led him to become a useless person who couldn’t cultivate.

"My parents sacrificed themselves so that I could live well... If that event hadn’t happened, I would’ve become a Cultivator like everyone else! Do you know how hard I’ve tried to recover my damaged meridians? But until now..." Frustrated by being belittled, Yuan Bei responded with many curses at the fireball.

"Didn't I just reconnect your meridians?"

"Really?"

"Just check for yourself, but you don’t know anything... Use the knowledge left by the Dragon Emperor to guide yourself!" The fireball replied, clearly irritated.

Yuan Bei tried to follow the strange fireball’s instructions. He fell silent, contemplating how to examine his meridian condition inside his body.

"Why? You've figured it out, but you still can't use it? Never mind, anyway, there are plenty of wild beasts in this forest that could kill you... So I’ll just wait for a powerful person who can properly use the Heart of the Dragon Flame."

Swuuuuush!

The fire known as the Heart of the Dragon suddenly entered Yuan Bei’s body on its own. Although startled, this made him snap out of his daze.

"My meridians have really healed..."

Realizing that when a Cultivator could feel the energy of Qi, it meant they could cultivate. A look of happiness appeared on Yuan Bei's face. His hope for revenge surged as he recalled how his parents had been killed before his eyes.

    "With the abilities left behind by others... I will surely rise and find out who killed my parents in the past..." Yuan Bei said with a firm vow. Suddenly, the Heart of the Dragon Flame spirit within his body muttered curses in its mind."Hahaha! With just you? Do whatever you want, I can only remind you that there are some wild beasts in this forest. But that’s not the problem, it's the Demon Beasts, from level one to three.

    Hearing the words of the Fire Spirit, Yuan Bei, who was in the middle of his attack, momentarily lost focus."What did you just say? Weren’t you the one who wanted me to master the techniques left by others?!"Receiving no response from the Fire Spirit, Yuan Bei regained his focus to face the black-horned tiger before him. His flexible movements, perfectly timed strikes, and seamless tempo were mesmerizing, but the tiger did not feel admiration—it felt fear, knowing the flaming sword could pierce its body at any moment.Sriiing!The tiger’s claws clashed with the flaming sword, producing a sharp, piercing sound. Yuan Bei spun his body, rolling forward, and slashed at the tiger’s leap with precision.Slaaaash!Groaaaarh!The tiger roared in shock as its front legs were severed from its body. Its footing faltered, and it collapsed, letting out weak growls toward Yuan Bei.Slaaaaash!"Click, click, click! Your way of killing the tiger is quite brutal..." The Fire Spirit remarked to Yuan

There's no way I could be from the place you're talking about, right?"Cai Lin paused momentarily before explaining. The Moon Palace was an incredibly mysterious place, known only to a select few."But your abilities are still too weak right now. I can't reveal its location yet... When the time comes, I will personally take you to the Moon Palace."Yuan Bei nodded in understanding and continued his journey. Before he knew it, he had arrived at the gates of Shang City just as the sky turned dark.Quickly entering the city, Yuan Bei headed straight for a tower known as the Tower of Information. Suddenly, a servant stopped him."Sir, is there something I can assist you with?""Could I request some minor information?"The servant nodded. "It depends on the complexity of the information you require, but naturally, we charge an appropriate price for our services."Yuan Bei clenched his fists tightly. H

    “Why has my legacy been passed on to a worthless young man?” The Ghost King’s spirit looked visibly bewildered as it observed Yuan Bei’s cultivation domain.Hearing the scornful remark, Yuan Bei drew his sword, pointing it forward. Clearly, he wasn’t going to tolerate words that pierced his pride.“Worthless? I’ve merely been delayed in restoring the damage to my meridians… Senior, discard that word—worthless…” Yuan Bei’s eyes turned sharp and piercing.“You are worthless... If you are truly a genius, then learn one of my secret techniques. If, within a year, you fail to master it, I will be gravely disappointed. Why has heaven’s fate tied my legacy to someone as pathetic as you?”“Legacy?” Yuan Bei raised an eyebrow.“Hahahaha! What else were you expecting? To fight me? A single breath from me would kill you!”“Fine. Let’s begin with the technique you’re offering. I, Yuan Bei, refuse to accept the label of ‘worthless,’” Yuan Bei’s voice grew cold and resolute.The Ghost King smirked

    "All of you on that eagle’s back, get down!"Swuuuuuuung!A circular formation suddenly appeared in the sky, as if it had been a trap meticulously set for them. The eagle that Ling Ying rode was bound by chains. Instantly, the eagle beneath Yuan Bei began to rebel, throwing all the cultivators, including Yuan Bei, off its back and plummeting toward the ground.Baaaam! Baaaaam!Struggling to steady himself, Yuan Bei noticed more than thirty practitioners at the Five-Star Foundation Establishment stage emerging from behind massive trees, led by a cultivator at the Two-Star Core Formation stage."Why can’t I see the cultivation stage of their leader?" Yuan Bei communicated with Cai Lin through his mind."The greater the gap in cultivation stages, the harder it is to perceive. The man you’re referring to has reached the Core Formation stage... Though it’s the early stage, it’s enough to kill a Foundation Establishment cultivator like you. Be careful…"Yuan Bei nodded, his gaze locking ont

His graceful movements weren’t a spectacle to admire but rather a source of terror as his strikes relentlessly aimed for his enemies’ vital points.Moments later."Trying to kill someone as handsome as me? Cai Lin, they truly don’t know their limits..."After swiftly dispatching twenty practitioners, Yuan Bei sat down to restore his depleted Qi energy.Five minutes passed.Boom!Ling Ying was suddenly thrown back, crashing into a large rock beside Yuan Bei, who was meditating to recover his Qi.Opening his eyes, Yuan Bei looked at Ling Ying’s battered and bruised body with a concerned expression."W-what's your name?""Yuan Bei..." he replied.Before Yuan Bei could process the situation, fi

    "Miss Ling Ying, I, Yuan Bei, never intended to take advantage of you while you were unconscious," Yuan Bei said calmly."What proof do you have? Look at me—my clothes are gone!" she retorted, her tone filled with frustration.Letting out a long sigh, Yuan Bei, sensing movement around their hiding place, replied, "They’ve already found us... If you don’t get dressed quickly, I’m afraid they’ll be the ones taking advantage of you!""You...!" Ling Ying stammered, flustered and irritated.However, Yuan Bei wasn’t bluffing. A barrage of Qi energy spheres started crashing against the cave walls."Come out of your hiding place, both of you! If you want to die, I’m ready to bury you here in this cave!" a man’s voice boomed, issuing a warning.Hearing this, even Yuan Bei could gauge their cultivation levels. Wasting no time, he activated his Thousand Phantom Steps technique, swiftly leaving the depths of the cave.Outside the cave."It seems they’re stubborn! Destroy it!"The man who had shou

However, amidst his unhindered strides, a girl’s voice suddenly reached his ears, causing him to stop abruptly."Young master, help me! Please, help me!"Focusing his spiritual awareness, Yuan Bei tried to locate the source of the voice. Suddenly, Cai Lin's warning echoed in his mind."The ghostly aura here is dense and powerful... Bei, be cautious.""Ghostly aura? I can’t feel it... Could it be—""Because you’ve absorbed the soul of the Ghost King, no ghostly aura in this realm, no matter how strong, can affect you. And if I’m not mistaken, the girl you escorted earlier planned this trap.""A beautiful woman always brings trouble... Tonight’s events remind me of the words my father always used to say," Yuan Bei muttered with a long sigh.Despite the warning, he moved toward the voice’s source. When he found it, Yuan Bei didn’t immediately rescue the girl, who was bound by black chains cov

    King Tian's eyes widened in shock. The moon pendant in the young man's hand was exactly the same as the one shown by the Fire Emperor. For a moment, he stared at Yuan Bei's face. But in the end, he had to accept the reality that his life was now in the hands of the very young man he had been searching for all this time."Y-you...""Your comrades are all dead. How about you join them in the afterlife?!"King Tian shook his head and quickly spoke in a desperate tone."N-no! Didn't you say you would consider sparing me if I told you who ordered me?"Yuan Bei smirked and replied, "What I meant was, I would consider how you die under this flaming sword..."Slaaaaash!"K-King Tian is dead?!""Oh no! This is the first time I've seen a young man kill the strongest King in the Eastern Region... Who is he really?!""Whoever he is, he must have an extraordinary background!

    "Looking for the King? Then step over my dead body first!"General Yuan dashed forward with her sword. As she arrived in front of Yuan Bei, the woman immediately thrust her sword forward.However, Yuan Bei did not move an inch from where he stood. Instead, he raised one hand and opened two fingers, pinching the blade between them."I am looking for KING TIAN!"Swooooosh!He unleashed the Dragon Heart Flame, burning the sword trapped between his fingers. Instantly, the black-golden flames spread and began consuming General Yuan’s body. The woman’s eyes widened in shock as she hurriedly tried to let go of her sword’s hilt."It's... it's burning!"She frantically waved her hands, desperately trying to extinguish the flames. But the Dragon Heart Flame could not be put out. Slowly, her eyes remained wide open as she watched her fingers and arms turn to ash."Pl-please help me... this fire won’t go out at all..."Swuuuuuuush!A blood-red shadow flashed through the air, speeding toward the p

    Yuan Bei stared at the middle-aged man in front of him with sharp eyes. He then responded to the question in a flat tone."I did it because he made a mistake against me...""A mistake? In this city, I make the rules… Since when does a young cultivator dare to act so recklessly here? And you even dared to injure my son's wrist!"Yuan Bei's face turned red with anger. The hatred and resentment that had consumed him after discovering the mastermind behind the destruction of Cenayang Village only fueled his frustration even more."So, what do you want to do about it?""Break both of your hands and leave this city immediately!""Father, isn't that too lenient?! Wouldn't it be better if you broke both his arms and legs instead?!" Qing Tian's demands became even more outrageous."Hmph! Do you even have the power to do that?"Uninterested in engaging with them, Yuan Bei prepared to use his Qi wings to leave the city. However, before he could take off, Qing Lao suddenly leaped toward him using

With ease, he caught Qing Tian’s fist in the palm of his hand.Kraaaaaaack!Qing Tian's eyes widened in shock as he felt the bones in his arm snap when Yuan Bei twisted it clockwise."Y-you broke my arm…" Qing Tian staggered backward, his face turning red with a mix of pain and frustration."Next time, don’t act recklessly if your skills aren’t enough." Yuan Bei spoke coldly before turning away, leaving Qing Tian behind as he made his way toward the grand Information Tower.The surrounding cultivators who had witnessed the brief confrontation murmured among themselves."It wasn’t Qing Tian who was reckless, but that young man… Offending Qing Tian in Black Rain City might bring serious trouble upon him.""True,

    Flashback.When Yuan Bei was just five years old, on his birthday, a great tragedy befell his family. A group of people suddenly came and destroyed their modest home.At the same time, both his parents were killed by a technique eerily similar to the one Bai Chen was now using."Bei, what are you thinking?! Your opponent’s technique isn’t ordinary!" Cai Lin quickly reminded Yuan Bei.Snapping out of his thoughts, Yuan Bei realized too late that the lightning attack was already upon him. He hastily created a shield using his fire element.Craaaaack! Boom!Although he managed to block it, the stream of lightning energy kept surging forward. Bai Chen, seeing his opponent struggling to withstand the attack, smirked faintly and said,"Do you think you can stop it? Tch! Why bother watching someone who’s about to die? I’d rather…"He paused mid-sentence and turned around, now gazing passionately at Ling Ying’s figure. Slowly, he began walking toward her, licking his lips as he went.But in t

    "Although he was only pushed back a few steps, this was enough to prove that the young man in front of me must have obtained unimaginable fortune. With such terrifying growth, I cannot afford to let him become my enemy in the future!" Bai Chen muttered to himself before quickly dashing toward Yuan Bei, forming a sword of lightning elements from within his body.Observing Bai Chen's movements, Yuan Bei swiftly summoned a sword of flame elements. Instantly, the two elemental swords clashed with each other.The resulting energy fluctuations filled the air, but both combatants pulled back their swords and began engaging in an intense exchange of sword techniques. The graceful yet lethal movements displayed by Yuan Bei left Bai Chen in awe. For a moment, he admired the beauty of Yuan Bei's swordsmanship. However, he quickly snapped out of it, realizing the danger in underestimating his opponent."Damn it, I let myself be mesmerized by his sword technique..." Feeling cornered by Yuan Bei's

It’s a good thing your dragon soul didn’t shatter, considering how strong it is. Be more careful next time—every extensive use of the soul in creating a formation always reflects its destructive power. You’re not yet accustomed to it, so train yourself to become proficient."Yuan Bei nodded, then resumed practicing the Divine Slayer Palm Formation under Cai Lin's guidance. This time, he didn’t repeat his previous mistakes. By nightfall, he had improved significantly."Restore your Qi energy, then begin cultivating by absorbing the Sky Demon Crystal."Over the next six months, Yuan Bei delved into rigorous cultivation training. Finally, he opened his eyes, a wide smile forming on his face."A Level Five Spirit Core Realm?"Swuuuuuung!A powerful surge of energy emanated from his body, creating fierce winds aroun

    "When did you awaken?" Yuan Bei asked the voice in his mind."I'll answer that later. For now, step away from where you're standing," the voice warned. Without hesitation, Yuan Bei quickly created a safe distance from the altar where the Sky Demon Crystal resided.Swuuuuuuung!As expected, the warning was no trivial matter. The ancient altar holding the Sky Demon Crystal began to tremble, and a barrier of energy resembling a thick mist formed around it, radiating immense power."I woke up the moment you started cultivating... Bei, the treasure before you is enough to push you to a realm beyond anything you've ever imagined. Now, look—the Sky Demon Crystal is reacting," the voice, Cai Lin, explained.Yuan Bei turned his gaze back toward the altar, surrounded by hundreds of demonic beasts at levels six and seven. He quickly realized their cultivation energy was being absorbed into the crystal. Cai Lin elaborated that this forest might be under the control of someone from a mysterious De

    "Hmmmp!" Yuan Bei snorted in frustration, stomping his foot on the ground. A sudden surge of energy rippled through the air.Knowing that even a seventh-level demon beast like the giant white ape struggled against the pack of blood-fanged wolves, Yuan Bei stretched both arms, preparing for battle.Swuuuush!A flaming sword materialized in his hand. Just as the weapon took shape, one of the wolves leaped at him, its claws aiming for Yuan Bei's back."You dare try to wound me?"Sriiiiiiiiing!Spinning around swiftly, Yuan Bei blocked the incoming claw strike with his flaming sword. Without hesitation, he unleashed a flurry of attacks aimed at the wolf's lower body.Slaaaaash! Swoooooooosh!The sword embedded itself in the wolf, and a split second later, flames erupted from the blade, consuming the beast entirely. Within moments, it was reduced to ash."The Heavenly Flame truly is remarkable... No matter how tough the body, as long as these flames burn it, it will turn to dust!"Auuuuuuu
