Chapter 331

The leaves are to be placed on air to form a large piece of floating leaves causing a strong and thick layer in the same form which are to remain underneath the rings as shields from beneath during combination to avoid any obstruction from underneath.

Such a process needs no obstruction of any kind from any direction. This whole process is a crucial one. It needs more concentration than you think, any distraction could set off the alarms leading to the attack of so many traps all at once, and one would not be so lucky to avoid it all.

Inside the rings are tiny keys hunged.When combined and placed on the step of the ten lords. It breaks out a large key pulling out frozen pearls which will each fit in the spaces in between the cave and have the rest transferred to that of the seven dragons.

According to study, it could be noted that such a process takes a week in the human world to complete before the lord's awakens but seems like some minutes at the mountain. it can take even a second depending on who the lead for the process is. And since it was the old man it took just a jiffy.

Such a process will take place at once in different time durations and intervals causing a drastic change in the appearance of the cave. To the normal humans if they do come across this cave they would find nothing wrong with it. They wouldn't notice a thing at all.

 

It wasn't a new thing to the old man though it's been decades he carried such activity out.He was used to it and conversant with it. He didn't plan for this at all, this was unexpected. There weren't things the monsters couldn't handle by themselves he was surprised they had to seek him out. This made the old man very curious to know what was behind it.

Seeing how powerful he can be, waking up the ten lords could all depend on him as desired.

He could choose to do so if it pleased him to carry it out or not to carry it out..it's all left to him.The old man isn't known for such, when he takes up a task, he finds an incredible way to make it happen. He has been tested countless times before he became a ruler over it. 

He is not such an immortal that makes ill negative use of his position in the mountains.He makes use of it positively.

"Old master, it's very nice to honour our invitation, it was urgent" They Said 

With a weird smile on his face…he replied to the seven dragons.

"Hmm, indeed your memories are still very good. I am indeed your old master and you ran to me for help I can tell the cause for which I was summoned.Though it's been quite a long time since I visited the mountain".

"We should have called you earlier, not suddenly, " they said, sounding really depressed. They had no choice 

"It's all okay, You're welcome at any time. I actually mind the urgency because I had something very important." He said with an evil smile "Here are the rings right before you.Before we proceed..I have a question to ask.."The old man said, holding firm the rings with powers demanding answers to his self pondered question. These rings were his masterpiece, they were so important to him that he had second thoughts bringing them with him.

(Silence)

(Voice in threes) "Haha ..we have read your mind.You don't need to ask…we have answers to your question.We know what you're seeking for.The cause for which we summoned you is known to you yet you have a lot if questions to ask.Seems someone wants to know the one whom it's to be gifted. We summoned you here so we can fulfill the rights due to the chosen ones. Old Master, we know how very important they are to you but trust us it's for a greater good and you wouldn't be disappointed"

The old man was speechless at the moment. It wasn't surprising that they could read his mind, they still had a stronger connection as Master and Pet. In the immortal world there is a strong connection which exists between a master and his pet, they could reach each other easily through the mind link, this gives them the ability to read each other's mind. There was no one who could read the old man's mind without his permission, that's only because the seven dragons were no longer under him. This rule only applies to other Immortals but when it comes to the Supreme and the seven dragons are exceptions. Even the Seven dragons would be limited to his mind if the bind 

Hearing the seven dragon's reply got him silent for sometime he had his own plans and these rings were something he had created himself. It had a lot of prowess worth a thousand years in it. He earlier had some things computed within him which he couldn’t give answers to himself. Since they had mentioned it was for the greater good, then he has to give in..

Based on their response they didn't want to let out what and who the rings would be gifted to. They would want to keep it a secret between them, if they really wanted to tell him who it would be gifted to, they wouldn't have to assure him that 'it is for the greater good' he felt he had to ask them who it was meant for. 

But keeping such questions to oneself wouldn't pay, It is preferred to ask and be clarified then face consequences if there's any. They wouldn't be on a mission, except if they had received strict instructions from a colleague of his who happens to be their new master. When the new steps in, the Old had to give way. He had some limits now when it comes to giving them orders. He decided to let them out for answers.

"Begin the process,new gifts have been issued from the immortal's treasure already. And it happens to be one of my greatest collections as well" The old man said smiling cunningly. He was waiting patiently for their reply.

"It is true old Master, but we weren't the one who issued those gifts and we have no idea about it and why it was sent out " One of the Seven Dragons replied. Even if it was, such vital information wouldn't be given to them except of course, if they were the messengers. 

“Is that another reason for the urgent call?”The old man questioned while he had his eyes on the rings held on air. If he had to give it out, it would definitely be out of his own free will.

(Silence)

"(Voice in threes) You've decided to question us but unfortunately we don't have the answers to your question. This was the mission given to us, we have no idea about what would happen next."

(Laughs) “We all know how stubborn I can get with something that belongs to me. It's somebody's else's mission but it happens to be my precious hand made models." He said with a smile as bright as the sky.

"There are some information we are limited to and some visions we are blocked out from seeing" They echoes 

(Smiles) "That I know, the treasury has been shut since the fallen. And after a thousand years, a gift was given (smiles).Who has received a gift from the immortal treasures after so long? We all know what the fact is. The first set were the necklace, who would be the second set lucky enough to take the rings? I want to know the lucky ones” The old man questioned with a look full of surprise knowing fully well that when the six rings are being requested for…there is definitely a welcoming of a new immortal who has to be gifted, It wasn't anything new. This was the normal code, and yes he has every right what so ever on his own modules. But who was the second gifted one? This time…there is a slight difference in preparation for the welcoming.It was quite unique compared to the usual.Never for once has it appeared the way it appears this time, It was an urgent call and this made it more special.

"(Voice in threes) This was quite a topic to discuss with questions. Save yourself the stress old master, let's carry out the process, we all know those rings wouldn't get to us without having to leave you willingly"

Though no one could question them for any action but the old Master could.The old man has quite some grace to do so being the one capable of setting them out which was why he was bold enough to ask questions.Though he was no longer their Master, but the fact was that he was, once. He knows too well the duration of time it takes to grant a gift no matter how little it is.

The Old man had a wonderful smile on his face, they were right. The couldn't force him against his will it had to be done willingly. But not withstanding he is the one who made it so he could track who has it if he wants. He just thought about asking them and now he was convinced, they really had nothing for him, they knew nothing about who the rings would be gifted to.

Looking at the floating diamond stone…he could see three empty treasures which he never saw earlier before seeking answers to his question.Seeing three emptied treasure seat.. he wondered why all three will be gone at the same time when a single one leaves after centuries or even in a millennium. It was to be that three treasures leave their treasure seat after Centuries. But this time…three left at once which was quite unexplainable because law has made it a single gift to render.He titled the child a special child to have been gifted three at once.

It was quite surprising to him.It is impossible to be stolen.No one dares to near the mighty diamond stone nor take away a treasure from it. As it applies…He knows that no one comes to the mountain with the intention of theft without being noticed. Be it a mortal or immortal.Whereas,no mortal can find his or her way to the mountain,Such can occur if and only if he or she possesses powers.

The mountain is like a scanner that carries out blood tests from underneath a living thing as long as it has lived in it.It also reads one's intention and future dreams to come. The seven dragons were not just mere Immortals dragons, they are bound to see the future of mortals and some Immortals as well. The word some meant they had no access to all Immortal's future. There were some immortals that they couldn't access their future neither read their fortune.

The old man cannot in any way question the seven dragons now as to why they gifted three treasures to someone at once when a single one leaves after Centuries, he knew well that they had no idea. He wasn’t above the law but was privileged processing such grace.

“Are these three gifted to one?”

“(Laughs)”

"They were given to three in one"

"(Surprised) Three in one? As in Triplets?"

"Yes"

"How?"

(Laughs) "That was the only information we could gather. Just as we said, we know nothing about it. Our past relationship together has made us connected. If not you know that no one except our Master can question our mission. That has always been the rule, but old master we still have a strong connection and you are indeed the best Master so far. You would always come to our aid whenever we call and so we have you in our hearts" 

"To bad I let you all down"

(Laughing) 

There was continuous laughter at the mountain.The sound of the laughter was like a thunderstorm that could split open a rock.It was so strong,loud and echoing .

The old man wasn’t in for anything light at the moment.It was more like laughter wasn’t what he expected from the seven dragons but answers. But did they know Lark Fire so well?Did the know who he really is?

It never for once occurred that three treasures of the immortal left the treasure stone at once.It seemed to him like a new rule was conveyed.He couldn’t remain silent but talked about it.

He wasn't just the chosen one to wake up the ten lords, he was ince their ruler. Any other than him cannot carry out such.This post given to him is one of the greatest.He would have to be at the mountain for seven days (A week) according to the time factor in the human world which means Kent and friends would remain at the mansion for seven days.

(Sound and solid vibration)

Using his index and middle fingers..he carried out some power filling into the rings causing them to switch places and begin the combination.The rings spined spin and spin so drastically at a spot causing it to change places and connect with the required ones so as to combine and make whole.Then moved the red rings which was spotted with some white sheep’s skin to the yellows ring which has tiny rings within its circle.When clinged to the red ring, it forms a mighty orange ring about twice the size of the earth which are capable of compression into smaller size.

After the red and yellow ring combined.. the blue and green ring cling together forming a mighty violent ring. Each ring has glitters around it shining erect to the cloud causing rays of light.During combination..they make loud glittering sounds that cannot be withstood by any human.It could lead to damage of the ear bud.No human can withstand it.Such sound is heard on earth like the sound of an airplane heard on earth while in the sky.Since the six rings became two, it was high time for the two mighty rings (orange and violent ring) to cling together to create a single ring and then form divers colors releasing dust to the area which are to be placed on the step of the ten lords using powers to move it before it finally produce the key.

The old man carried out the first stage of preparation (the preparation of ring combination) Heading to the next stage which is the process to activate the two rings in combination to form a single mighty ring for a successful formation..the ground began to shake.It shook like though there were natural disaster occurrence which  was strong enough to cause a quake.Which couldn't come to place because the floor cannot be split open by any serious scene.It was a symbol to them being that something went wrong.Not in the process ongoing but the one ahead which turns out to be a shocking.

(Panic)

“What would have gone wrong now?This has never happened.Not ever since my existence.No such occurrence have I encountered ever since my life as an immortal.I have been doing this for decades. "What has gone wrong?' He said with a wondering face.

The old man tried to figure it out ensuring there was no mistake from the first stage which was confirmed clean and clear,It worked out well.While he had that checked..he looked around and then noticed that something was missing which is 

’The book of confused characters’ A book which existed since the mountain and kingdom creation placed at a fixed location to avoid misplacement.
