Volume 3 - Chapter 28(Martial Universe(Part 2))

Moving his gaze towards one side, Primis saw a huge river in the sky. The river was red in color and was emitting huge amounts of reddish and goldish color Qi. There were many floating platforms near it. Many disciples could be seen meditating on those platforms as their bodies were absorbing those Qi's.

Primis: Pill River.

Exactly. That was not a normal river, but one made of countless red color pills instead of liquid of some sort. Pill River is an artificially created river that contains Nirvana Qi and Nirvana Golden Qi. It can only help "Nirvana Stage(Level 8)" experts to advance deeper into their realms. Only large sects could waste such an amount of Nirvana Qi in such manner because it's basically useless for those who are lower or higher than "Nirvana Realm(Level 8)".

Turning his gaze away, Primis kept on moving.

'Primis: I must increase the range of my Elemental-Sight since in future I will for sure travel to worlds who covered the area of millions of kilometers. That time a mere 500 Km range won't be enough.

Finally, after strolling for some time, Primis reached the deeper part of the mountain. The population of disciples here was almost non-existent. Then a huge Pagoda appeared in sight. Without stopping, Primis kept on walking and entered its vicinity. The Yuan power in this Pagoda was too abundant and thick. Truly one of the best places for cultivation.

Stepping inside, Primis saw many maids going here and there doing their work. These maids were also "Nirvana Stage(Level 8) experts". Still, they know their place and didn't show any arrogant expression. Primis noticed something within his range and moved there. Soon, he reached the top floor of the Pagoda and entered a specific room.

Two maids were cleaning that room hurriedly. There was a nervous expression on their faces. Ignoring them, Primis' gaze fell on a bird cage on the floor near the opened window. The cage was broken and at the side there was a small dead bird. Approaching it, Primis crouched down and picked up the dead bird.

Maid 1: Let's hurry up and take care of the bird before Young Heir returns.

Maid 2: Um. Let's go. Huh?

Maid 1: Hmm? What's wrong?

Maid 2: Where is the bird?

Maid 1: What?

Turning both maids turned to where that bird was but found nothing. Only the bird's cage remained. They turned and looked outside as wind entered the room from the window.

Behind the Pagoda, there was a huge garden where you could see many plants, flowers, and even some herbs. There was also a big pond there. The water in the pond was very clear and fish could be seen swimming in and jumping out. Some more distance away, there was a river. And at the one end of the river there was a huge waterfall.

CHURN!!!

BUBBLE!!!

CRASH!!!

...…

...

…

The sound of the waterfall was so loud that it will be difficult for others to hear anything else unless they use their cultivation. Because of that, you can't hear the heartrending cry of a little girl. Behind the waterfall, there was a little girl with blue hair, blue eyes, and white clothing. Both her hands and head were on the wall as she was crying as loudly as she can.

Little Girl: WAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The girl had been crying for the last 30 minutes yet wasn't showing any sign of stopping. It was like she wanted to pour out all her feelings.

???: What's happened, Little Girl?

Little Girl: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A Sudden voice behind snapped the Little Girl out of her thoughts. She hurriedly turned back in panic. She chose this place specifically so that no one could find her and see her current condition. Yet, someone found her. The moment she saw the person, her eyes opened wide. As an heir of Nine Heavens Supreme Purity Palace, she had seen many people, but no one was as handsome as him. Still, for someone reason she felt that she knew him but couldn't recall from when.

Primis had a gentle smile on his face as he approached the little girl. Lowering himself to her eye level, he looked into her eyes.

Primis: So, what happened?

Little Girl: *hic* *sob* C-Chirpy *sob* *hic* *sob* died. *hic* *sob*

The Little Girl didn't want to show her current appearance to anyone. But she didn't know why she had a feeling that she could tell him everything without any need to hide anything.

Primis: Chirpy. Huh.

Primis smiled didn't change hearing this.

'Primis: Just like Twilight said. Except the limit of 1,500 per stats per level, Battle Maids are just like my Permanent-Members. That's why Ling Qingzhu could trust me on this first meeting, and I can also feel the pain in her heart.'

Extending his hand forward, Primis touched Ling Qingzhu's tear-stricken face and wiped her eyes. Tears showed no sign of stopping while Primis kept on wiping them without pause. Ling Qingzhu remained silent and let Primis do what he was doing while sobbing in between. Once her crying stopped, Primis wiped the last tear and stood up.

Primis: Shall we go for a walk?

Ling Qingzhu: ............…Um.

Ling Qingzhu nodded and grabbed the hand he offered. Next, they both walked out from behind the waterfall and took a stroll in the garden. Ling Qingzhu was still depressed as she walked with her head down and red eyes.

Primis: So, Little Qingzhu, do you have friends?

Ling Qingzhu: Friends?

Raising her head, she looked at Primis before shaking her head.

Ling Qingzhu: I don't.

Primis: Oh............ Then have you ventured outside the clan before.

Shaking her head again, she spoke.

Ling Qingzhu: I didn't. Master is strict. So, I spend most of my time doing training. Next week, I am also going to take my first step into cultivation.

Primis: Is that so? Then let's go outside today.

Ling Qingzhu: Wha----- No. No. No. I can't. Master won't let me.

Ling Qingzhu started panicking and hurriedly shook her head in denial.

Primis: Why don't we just ask her?

Ling Qingzhu: Huh?

Under Ling Qingzhu confused look, Primis glanced behind them.

Primis: You have been following me since I passed by your palace. Why don't you show yourself now?

Ling Qingzhu: .........

There was silence for a second before space distorted. In the next moment, a figure stepped out of it. The instant she appeared, the sky and earth seemed to have suddenly darkened. An invisible fluctuation radiated out, which can cause people to feel an impulse to kneel. Ling Qingzhu's face turned pale as she gasped. She hurriedly tried to separate her hand from Primis hold but to no vail.

There were no Yuan power fluctuations radiating from her body. However, a faint pressure spread outwards, making it seem as if even the area would be able to solidify. She was an extremely beautiful woman with black hair and emerald color eyes. She was wearing a white and golden robe. She was the Sect master of this Nine Heavens Supreme Purity Palace, Shen Qing. One more thing, she was also Ling Qingzhu's master.

Seeing her Ling Qingzhu face was filled with horror. On the other hand, Shen Qing ignored her for now and was glaring daggers at Primis with her cold eyes. Next, she spoke in an icy tone.

Shen Qing: Who are you? How did you trespass into Nine Heavens Supreme Purity Palace?

Primis: I have no obligation to answer your question, little girl?

Ling Qingzhu: ...............

Shen Qing: ..................

Ling Qingzhu became dumbfounded hearing how Primis addressed her master as 'little girl'. On the other hand, coldness increased in Shen Qing eyes. Well, not her mistake though. Cultivators can see the bone age of any person and can roughly guess their age. Hence, even though Primis was more than billions of years old, his body was forever 19. So, to her it was Primis was just a baby who had just started learning how to walk.

Even if you are the most talented person of the generation. Even if you are a member of Super Sect. Even if you have all the high-level treasures and resources. At most you can reach "Form Creation Stage(Level 5)" under 20 years old. Hence in her eyes it was impossible for Primis to be beyond "Samsara Stage(Level 11 Pseudo-God)".

Heck, she was even thinking that Primis was not even at "Form Creation Stage(Level 5)" and was using some kind of heaven-defying treasure to trespass the formation that was protecting the sect. And that's also how he was also able to sense her presence.

Too bad, she didn't know the truth. Unlike Akame ga Kill world, in this world Primis wasn't not facing any world's suppression. So, he can use his full strength here. The power of Dimensional God. Power higher than what this Great Thousand World could handle.

Pulling Ling Qingzhu behind him, Primis spoke.

Primis: I will say this once. I am here for Ling Qingzhu because she belongs to me.

BOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!

A violent Yuan power released from Shen Qing body towards Primis. Fear was visible in Ling Qingzhu eyes as she saw the power approaching. But when she saw Primis back, for some reason her heart calmed down. Next, when the yuan power was about to touch Primis, it turned from violent to gentle as breeze and passed by them.

Ling Qingzhu's hair flew in the air as she felt the gentle touch of yuan power on her face. On the other hand, Shen Qing became even more enraged.

'Shen Qing: Just what kind of treasure he is using. To be able to stand against "Samsara Stage(Level 11 Pseudo-God)" expert like me. This must be a high-ranking one. But which one. No matter how much stronger a treasure is, one can't bring out its true power unless you are a high-level cultivator yourself.'

As she was deep in her thoughts, Primis decided to move. However, the moment he did so, he stopped. Looking back, he saw Ling Qingzhu holding his hand tightly this time while showing an extremely worried expression. Showing a light smile, Primis crouched down and patted her head.

Primis: Don't worry, everything will be fine. Just leave it to me.

Kissing her forehead, he turned towards Shen Qing again.

Primis: Let's begin.
