1 PROLOGUE

"Mom, why look at this empty book all day without rest?" the whole beautified Chinese ancient-styled room echoed with a child's voice. The voice was unique and captivating.

A charming goddess stared lovingly at an open book. At first glance, the book looked empty, but the lady made it apparent that she could see written letters in the book. The lady had a noble air around her; at the same time, she looked empty and lonely. It was like she desired something she couldn't grab. The young lad, who clocked about ten years old, looked at his mother cutely and lovely. However, the lady only smiled at her son. The child laughed like the gate of heaven had opened, and the light of the nine angels had bathed him anew.

After staring at the book, the lady closed the book gently and sighed. She petted the young lad on his accumulated long hair that beautified his face. She looked at him dotingly and pulled him closer as she kissed him. The boy was neither confused nor unwilling; this exercise must have been pretty normal to him.

'This was the same as what his mother did with him when he was a child; she never allowed him to lose the will and environment of love. I missed him so much, but it is never easy for him to appear around. I will give your child all the love and teach him in your stead.' The lady sighed. Her expression became more lonely.

"Karl Tian, who told you this book is empty?"

"Isn't it?" the boy asked back childishly.

"Mother, if it isn't—what is it, then?"

"This book contains a great legend and mystery of your father."

"But mom, that's what you tell me every day. What's the book about?"

"It's about the mission handed by the king of heaven to your father, who was his priest and prince. That's how I met your father. I know you want to know more, but you're still immature, unfortunately." The lady said.

Mother and child stood from their position and went out to have a walk in the whole yard. The warm sun lighted the place like the city of gods. Gold light descended unceasingly on the surrounding. The trees were unique and full of life, and the creatures all had warm air around them. The whole atmosphere befitted peace. Karl Tain left the mother and ran around on his own. He moved to a golden python that curled its body around and allowed him to climb in peace. The most intriguing thing was the sharp eyes of Karl Tian—it was full of life and divine. His laughter was cute and charming. The snake carried him at full speed. It looked like the snake was walking in space.

"This child." The lady gently laughed. Her aura was rich and animated, and her silver robe made her more dignified. She looked more mature and serene. Her eyes looked lonely and yearning. She walked around, inhaling the freshness of the environment.

At this moment, there was vibration; brilliant light quickly followed. This quick change in the situation immediately alerted the lady. She vanished like a puff of wind and appeared in the unique greenery. This forest looked like it was alive, and it was uniquely beautiful. The rare grasses scattered like the bridge of gods. Completely awesome! Sitting on this grass was Karl Tain. Heavenly light surrounded him, and the ground rippled non-stop. He was in a tinge of pain as he moaned in a low tiny voice.

The lady appeared a few meters away from him; she saw her son awakened his heavenly trait. His eyes bled blood. However, ten golden rings sat brightly on his pupil. The edges of the rings connected themselves externally.

"This…" The lady was surprised, but she quickly relaxed. It was not something that was out of the norm. After all, who was the father of this child? It was the priest and prince of heaven. If this child had a lousy cultivation spirit—that would account for a ridiculous joke.

At this time, a golden eagle shot like a rifle toward the mother and son. On top of the golden eagle was a charming lady with a warm temperament. She was calm, and one could regard her as a classless beauty, especially with her dazzling white robe. However, this person had no cultivation, unlike the lady before the child. As the eagle landed, the lady that stood a few meters before the child bowed humbly.

"Mother."

"What happened here, Zera?" The arrived woman asked gently. Her voice was surprisingly soothing to the ear.

"Tain had awakened his heavenly trait. His visual prowess is heavenly zone: ten paths."

"Hmm! Not bad."

"Mother, when will he come back?"

The woman looked at the other person she called Zera with a complex expression. Heaven could tell that she was helpless around her. Realistically, the attitude was more like she felt pain for her. She sighed with distress as she tapped her shoulder gently.

"Why did you have to persevere this suffering? You knew my son made an exception because of me and other things: probably because of the situation of the other elemental gods and you too to make that concession. I know you love him, but he already went out of line to leave you with something."

"Mother, it's not like I am willingly greedy; I just can't help it," Zera said with a tinge of sob. Her eyes turned red and teary.

The woman sighed again.

"Anyway, now that his son has awakened, he must need to visit and pass some wisdom to him. However, I don't know his method of appearance. After all, immortals and gods aren't supposed to interfere with the activity of mortals. It doesn't matter if his child is a demigod."

"Okay. I'll listen to you." Zera finally conceded.

"Now that he awakened, why don't you tell him everything recorded in that book. You should know the other three children might have also awakened. I will arrange for everyone to convene in the next few months."

"Alright."

"Don't be sad. You came really late, whether in mortal life or immortality. The person he loved was always ahead of you. Let's not dwell on it."

"Mhm."

The light that surrounded Karl Tian faded together with the vibrations. He staggered as he attempted to walk but fell on the shoulder of a squatting woman. The woman was graceful and graceful. As his gaze concentrated, he saw the person. This situation jolted him awake.

"Grandma!" Tian called childishly. This uniqueness made the woman helpless.

It was natural for Tian to recognize her grandma. Why wouldn't he know someone that her statue was almost everywhere in Jankao, including the small world where they stayed. Karl Elizabeth: a legend that gave birth to the prince of gods. A kind and humble woman. Who doesn't know her in the whole Jankao universe? She was an exemplary figure, and the world respected and held her in high esteem.

"My good boy is growing well. Does your body hurt?"

"Mhm!"

"It'll be okay. Grandma will massage your body."

"Grandma, will you play with me?"

"Of course. You are my darling." Elizabeth Karl said dotingly.

At this moment, Tong Zera came to her son. "Tian, your grandmother is really busy. Now that she wants to play with you, treasure it well."

"Don't worry, mom. I won't force grandma too much."

The three people stood and left the place; however, Karl Elizabeth took Karl Tain on her golden eagle and disappeared. They flew around various states and cities in the Jankao universe. They went to museums and other historical places. However, Karl Elizabeth covered herself very well because she was pretty popular. Also, Karl Elizabeth and Karl Tian looked even more like mother and son. She was aging incredibly slowly. The cloud covered itself with the weak setting light of the sun not long after. The golden eagle carrying Tian and Elizabeth brought them back to the ancient world. However, Tian was already asleep.

The next morning.

Just as Karl Tian opened his heavy eyelid, he saw his precious mother guarding his bed. His large king-sized bed unfolded wide and neat—it was magical. His room looked clean and refreshing—it was designed simple but charmingly. The patterns and accessories were enriching to the eyes.

"Mom, how long have you been here?" Tian Jerked up.

"Rascal, you won't greet your mom? What's with that reaction?" Tong Zera said with a joking voice. Her eyes stare dotingly at the young lad.

"Sorry, mom. How was your night?"

"See, my little boy still cares."

"Of course I do. I have to protect you now that dad is nowhere around."

"It's not that he's nowhere. After all, he's in the eighth heaven."

"Hmph! Why would I care? He is a bad man for making you helpless."

"It's not like you think. Don't let your grandma hear you. That's right; show me your eyes quickly."

"Mhm!"

At this moment, Karl Tian activated his heaven zone: ten paths. Ten edges of tiny golden rings connected themselves externally in an orbital configuration. Simultaneously, heaven pressure descended in the room; Zera inadvertently wanted to knock her kneel on the ground. However, before her kneel could touch the tiled floor, Tian helped her up. His speed was incredibly fast, and not even Zera noticed when he held her kneel. He finally stopped as he saw his mother's suffering because of his action.

"I came today to tell you about your father. You need to have deeper knowledge. Not just an external story. It'll be a long story; you listen very attentively." Zera said with heavy breathing.
