This Story follows the Journey of Caroline Warren who is tasked the impossible.

The three-legged cauldron was a million miles tall. No ordinary human being could ever imagine that height, or climb to the top of this cauldron in a lifetime.
The cauldron was more towering than any mountain in Pu Ban City; the power it released was old, mighty, and noble, as if the holiest human emperor walked up from his time and returned to the human world, looking at all human beings in Pu Ban City with the gentlest, mildest eyes.
This tremendous cauldron stood in Pu Ban City, but strangely, it did not block the sunlight.
The sunlight poured down from the sky as usual, warm and gentle, nourishing all living beings and generating new lives. The golden sunlight flowed on the surface of the quaint cauldron like water, rimming this gigantic and magical cauldron with a beautiful, golden edge.
The cauldron stood firmly in Pu Ban City. The ones right under the cauldron, the ones surrounding the cauldron's legs, or the ones by the edge of the city who were thousands of miles away from the cauldron, all saw this cauldron, no matter which direction they were facing. Some stood with their backs to the cauldron, but still, they saw the cauldron immediately.
The cauldron stood in Pu Ban City, also in the heart of every human being.
This was an unimaginably enormous cauldron, yet all people, even the weakest ones, clearly saw all of its details in one glance. From the top to the legs, from the inside to the outside, this cauldron was thickly covered in inscriptions.
These inscriptions didn't exist when the cauldron descended from the sky. But the moment it landed in Pu Ban City, a cyan-colored light sparkled and chiseled countless characters on the cauldron. These characters looked like the dragons, the phoenixes, the swimming fishes, unsophisticated and lively. Over ninety percent of Pu Ban people were illiterate, not to mention these old sacred characters which were used only by the top-grade powerful beings in this world.
Nevertheless, the moment these characters appeared, everyone 'saw' them and directly figured out their meanings.
'Saint Pan Gu created the world. The saint's body became dragons, soul became phoenixes, bloodline generated human beings...'
'Without strong scales, sharp teeth and claws, fragile human beings struggled in the prehistorical world for survival. In the daytime, they were hunted by fierce beasts and birds, and in the night time, they were attacked by poisonous snakes and bugs. Human ancestors begged powerful creatures for protection and lived a hard life...'
'The wise and powerful human ancestors learned from nature, from all living being in the world, and broke open a way through brambles and thorns, enlightening and uniting human beings. Weak human clans gathered together like streams merging into creeks, creeks into rivers, rivers into ocean...'
The surface of the enormous cauldron glistened. While more characters slowly emerging from the cauldron one after another, magical and magnificent images were showing up as well, telling the stories of Pan Gu world.
A colossal axe split the world. The clear mist rose and the cloudy mist descended, as the natural powers were separated. Numberless Chaos monsters attacked, but all died under the giant axe. The blood of the Chaos monsters dripped into the boiling natural powers. A powerful being with a human body and a snake tail descended from the sky and created all living beings in this world. Instantly, the chaotic primitive Pan Gu world became colorful, surpassingly beautiful, full of life-force.
Seeing these images, countless human beings exclaimed. Spirit Wa always lived beyond the noisy world, that human beings hardly heard of her. But at this moment, she was formally known by millions and millions of human beings.
Finally, these ordinary human beings found out that back when Saint Pan Gu created the world, it was Spirit Wa who protected the entire world with her magical power of creation.
Saint Pan Gu fell, and the dragon-kind, phoenix-kind, and humankind appeared. The dragons rambled in the sky and the oceans, phoenixes lived upon divine trees, and human beings struggled on the primitive land. Countless small human clans survived under the protection of powerful creatures, worshipping these creatures as totems and serving them generation after generation.
...
Through the changing images and scenes, the cauldron showed the entire history of the humankind, from the human ancestors struggling to live, from the wise and powerful ones who strove to enlighten and strengthen human beings, to the humankind growing stronger and stronger, until the establishment of the alliance of human clans.
All human beings who saw these images burst into acclamation. The ones showed up in the images were unfamiliar, but these Pu Ban people immediately recognized them and shouted their names out with the great pride and delight.
Emperor Fuxi, as the first human emperor, enlightened human beings and created the Magus cultivation system, opening a source of the human power.
Emperor Suiren created fire, which drove away the dangerous beasts and bugs, scared off the fierce birds, and opened up the human territories.
Emperor Shennong tasted all herbs himself, detoxified poisons and conquered diseases, and led human beings to a healthy life.
Emperor Xuanyuan was fierce and decisive. He fought the non-humankind, cut the monsters, and allowed human beings to raise their heads high.
Wise and dedicated human emperors were numberless. Their stories were told by old people. When their faces were shown on the cauldron, countless human beings loudly shouted out their names with laughter, even though these human beings had been busy at farming in the fields, fighting in the forests against wild beasts, mining, or firing porcelains...They said it out loud even though these people had forgotten about the old stories in their ordinary lives, as they rose with the sun for the daily meals and went to sleep when it got dark.
The human-kind was so amazing!
Back in the prehistorical era, among all living beings in this world, human beings were the weakest, that even a bug could easily kill a human being. Nevertheless, the ones who used to trample upon the world had died, the ones who used to run amok in the world had disappeared; the evil ones had fallen long ago, and the rampant ones had been forgotten.
But, the humankind had been developing thrivingly. Human beings remained standing in the world, without bowing to the divine gods or the ghosts or the spirits, without being destroyed by the non-humankind or any monster...Through all kinds of difficulties, the humankind continued surviving in this world, with pride and dignity, like the strongest old vine in the forest.
Human beings weren't as arrogant as dragons or as proud as phoenixes, or as glowing as the natural stars. Human beings lived a simple life in this world, on Pan Gu Motherland, strongly, steadily, always pressing forward with indomitable will.
"Humankind!"
Some people stood up, raised their heads and arms, and roared out loud. For some reason, their faces were covered in tears.
"Human ancestors!"
Some young men pulled out their weapons and wielded strongly towards the sky.
"Yah, yah..."
The children didn't know what to say, but they felt their hearts and bodies were burning, sensing an indescribable power urging them to shout towards the sky, towards the enormous cauldron.
A deep buzzing noise could be heard from the cauldron. The sun and all the natural stars shone upon the cauldron, while the earth meridians rolled and moved windingly over, connecting with the cauldron.
On the surface of the cauldron, the images of the sun, the moon, the natural stars, and the mountains and rivers had been flashing. A mighty power flooded out of the cauldron, spreading towards all directions as it rolled the souls of all dead eagle-headed creatures into the cauldron. The souls were screaming.
The hazy figure of an eagle-headed creature turned clearer and clearer on the cauldron. It was flying swiftly on the surface of the cauldron with panic, but could not break out.
Surrounding Pu Ban City, numberless eagle-headed creatures glanced at the cauldron from great distances away, then all died. Their souls flew into the cauldron, being sealed forever.



Long ago, there were people who stood upon the earth with their heads held high. They never bowed to anyone because of their indomitable spirit. They were capable of controlling wind and lightning, and conquering dragons and serpents. They seemed strong enough to split the earth and shatter the stars with their fists. They traveled throughout the land and called themselves Magi. Eventually, one of them would become a Supreme Magus! These men are the ancestors of human beings. Their blood is what we all share today.

Qing Long is the former strongest man in the world. He traveled through space and time and was reborn as Ji Hao in the Fire Crow Clan of the Southern Wasteland. It’s a complicated world. Forces from both inside and outside of the clan want this young and talented boy to die. Under great pressure, Ji Hao makes a deal with a mysterious man, who resides in his spiritual space, never showing his real face. He gains two drops of blood from a dragon and phoenix. Afterwards, Ji Hao becomes increasingly more powerful.

Releasing: Everyday

The thing was massive.
Black leathery skin that shone like scales against the moonlight, hung on its massive thick flesh. Sharp and deadly spines protruded on the length of its back with an even deadlier set of fangs fixed on its upper jaw on the front of its mouth.
There were seriously no words to explain how grave and overpowering the creature was. Truth to be told, just the size was enough to let Leila know the thing was a mythical creature.
And a hungry one, that is.
Now, envision a black-skinned cobra. Quite nice, right? Beautiful, deadly, and absolutely not suitable for humans to deal with, unless they're wearing long-sleeved protective clothes that cannot be pierced through and a protective face shield, like the ones you see in apocalypse movies.
Now imagine it as tall as an electric pole, the same width as your house, and as long as the seven-car train. With fangs as thick as the largest ivory tusks of a mammal and as sharp as a surgeon's scalpel with ends as a pointy as a needle.
That was the crisis Leila was currently facing at the moment.
It slithered towards her, towering her with its majestic crown that looked armored. Its ruby eyes pierced her with a predatory glare.
Leila's hands instinctively lowered to her blades. She did it as slowly and as cautious, as to not attract the creature's attention of what she was planning on doing.
But somehow, something feels off. It was a feeling Leila couldn't quite put her finger on. Amidst its overpowering presence, she thought she felt nervousness. Almost as if the creature was afraid of her.
It could be just her imagination, or the little tricks people's mind makes as a result of how they react to fear, but it wouldn't hurt to make sure, right?
If it was a creepy, hairy insect, Leila would've burst out running on full speed. It was almost funny because normal people would rather risk insects than snakes. However, to Leila, a giant hungry-looking snake is much, much better than seeing a small flying cockroach.
When her fingers reached the handles of her blades, she pulled her right leg backward, positioning her body in a crouching fighting stance. Like a runner's starting position.
Of course, such an obvious movement would grab the serpent's attention, as it immediately showed hints of striking.
However, she who strikes first wins the battle, and that was exactly the advantage Leila needed.
With the speed that rivals the Flash, Leila shot up to the sky, jumping unto the serpent's body to boost herself upwards.
It would've been better if she lightnings crawling on her body as a power effect, but as she flew mid-air, Leila took the opportunity and spoke the words she has always been wanting to say.
"Kaminari no kokyu," Leila whispered, her hand preparing to unsheathe her blade. "Ichi no kata: Hekireki Issen!"
In a flash, she drew her blades and sliced off a huge part of the serpent's body into pieces. 

With nothing to propel its head upward, the serpent hissed in pain as its giant head dropped and rolled on the ground.
Seeing what she had done, Leila took efforts to suppress her surging emotions and kept herself from jumping up and down in excitement.
Even with her artificially enhanced body from her past life, Leila wasn't able to achieve the movements she always witnessed whenever she watched anime series.
The feeling of staying in midair for more than fifteen seconds, accompanied by her super-duper improved body that was much more flexible and stronger than what she was used to, Leila finally achieved one of the things hardcore otakus desperately dreamed of: Imitating an anime character's infamous attack moves.
Though he was a very annoying and coward male character, Leila couldn't help but amaze Zenitsu's first form when he had first shown it in the anime, Kimetsu no Yaiba. It was such a phenomenal scene that just by thinking about it gave her goosebumps.
Thus, when the perfect opportunity arrived, she was able to easily envision the giant black serpent as one of Kibutsuji Muzan's demons and imitated Zenitsu's attack.
To a lifetime hardcore otaku like Leila, the move she just did was more awesome and pure bliss than achieving sexual orgasm. Not that she had the experience anyway.
Leila may be foul-mouthed and a honeypot assassin in her last life, but she never went past the line other than kissing. Hence, just another one of the things Liese would always wonder and nagged her about things like finding a boyfriend or getting married.
It was a ridiculous thing to argue about as Leila had always been contented living with just her sister her whole life. She had never imagined herself in the arms of a man or falling in love because what she had experienced is more than enough to scare them away.
But seriously, who on earth would want to be in a relationship with someone who is no different than a monster? A man marrying a woman much stronger than him is definitely a huge turn-off, for the guy.
Leila was in the middle of losing herself in a joyful, idiotic grin with her otaku self fully satisfied when she heard it.
Leila immediately dodged at the sudden attack. It was a close call, but thankfully she was faster.
She frowned and narrowed her eyes. Though it looked pretty smooth and smaller than it usually was, the serpent had regenerated most flesh it had lost.
"Right," Leila sighed. "It's a fantasy world, of course, it would have regenerative skills. Who am I kidding, thinking this guy would be so easily defeated?"
The giant serpent struck again, this time, it blew searing black colored flame towards her. 

"Shit!" She cursed, quickly moving out of the way. Leila glanced at the part of the forest roaring in inferno and blinked. "Now that's impressive."
It seemed to be annoyed by her excellent agility and nimble steps that were more silent and slippery than the serpent itself, so it changed its attacks into ice.
Hundreds of sharp icicles started raining from above her. Leila dodged, jumped, and ran as she calmly slashed the ones hindering her way while engaging a full-frontal assault, charging head on to the creature.
For a moment, the serpent's ruby eyes widen with surprise. Though Leila was oblivious to its reaction, she didn't fail to notice the serpent's attack patterns waver. Almost as if the creature was panicking.
Glancing at a particular huge icicle coming her way, an idea popped on her mind and she grinned. 

When it comes to fantasy worlds, there is this one thing that would always be present as its existence is considered vital to the world itself.
And that is magic.
One of the things Leila found out about herself the past few days was that she had the power to manipulate things.
In other words, telekinesis. Not to mention a very powerful one.
Her bejeweled crimson eyes glowed red as she activated her power. A crimson-colored aura with a smoke-like effect began to envelop every icicle, big or small, which were stopped, floating midair.
With a thought, rather than attacking Leila as the serpent thought would happen, it let out shrieks and hiss of pain as it felt the icicles raining down on the creature and piercing through its newly formed skin.
It was a momentary thought, so Leila would naturally accept if her idea failed. But as she expected, the serpent wasn't immune if attacked by its own powers, and thus, its usual ultra-speed regeneration was greatly affected. 

Now, the creature was dissolved into nothing more than an ordinary large snake. Basically, kebabbed by its own icicles.
Leila took one look at the state of the serpent and her stomach grumbled hungrily. She blinked, glancing once again at the large snake and grinned.
At her approach, the creature began to snap its jaws and attempted to strike at her, only to be hindered by the large icicle that stabbed its neck and pinned the creature unto the ground.
The serpent's display of feral aggression and fierceness was enough to scare anyone out of its way, even in its current pitiful state. However, in Leila's eyes, the creature was nothing but pathetic. Rather than scaring her away, the way the serpent tries to fight back and flails its body made her hungrier.
To Leila, this large mythical creature was nothing but an impressive prey waiting to be prepped and cooked into a lavish feast.
Just to give the creature hints of whatever's going on inside her abnormal mind. Leila used her magic to press its head firmly to the ground. She raised her right foot, stepped unto the creature's head, and grinned.
"Cornmeal crusted snake," Leila whispered to the creature. Her mind immediately began to envision how she would prep the large serpent. "Grilled snake, stir-fried, sweet, and sour snake soup..."
The serpent's tail flailed wildly as she continued, "Roasted, snake Takoyaki, fried snake innards marinated in soy sauce and lemon, snake meat skewers, full snake curry..."
"Indian snake gourd, Chinese snake hotpot, mapo tofu with ground snake meat..." Underneath the mercy of her hungry gaze and ridiculous strength, the creature started groaning and whimpering, almost as if it's crying.
There were a couple of strange hissing sounds followed by a sobbing voice. "Uwaaahh! Spare meee!"
Leila's head snapped in all directions, trying to locate the source. But no matter how much she searched, there was nothing or no one in the area who could've emitted such sobs. "What in the world?"
"I---hick! promise not to do it again! Please stoop! Have meeerccyy!" Someone wailed so loudly that Leila's brows shot up higher and higher by the minute.
She heard a loud sniff, "I knew I should've--hick! just avoided her. What the-hick! hell is this girl made of anyway? She's so ridiculously strong!"
With those words, Leila's head snapped back to the creature suffering underneath her foot. "You-Don't tell me---!"
She might've thought she was going crazy and hearing voices from the hunger, till she saw a crazy huge blob of tears flowing from the creature's ruby eyes.
Leila blinked in disbelief, those eyes which stared at her as if she was a hungry meal ten minutes ago, was trembling and gushing out tears. "Argh! Ouch! Ouch! Fuck! Gerroff me!"
Leila removed her foot from its head and crouched in front of it, "You...you can talk."
"Well, of course, I can talk." The black serpent sniffed. "It's you who's weird. People aren't supposed to understand superior creatures like me, yet you can. Who the hell are you? You ruthless barbarian."
"Wow, you talk as if you're not the one who attacked in the first place." She pinned the creature with an odd look. "So, what do we do? I'm hungry as fuck and there is a lavish feast waiting to be cooked in front of me."
"Y-you monster!" The creature screamed. The words made Leila's eyebrow twitch upwards. "Muttering those things while sending me images of what you were talking about...you're an even more of a monster than I am!"
"Sending you images? What are you talking about?"
"Huh?! You didn't even know?! Just how clueless are you?"
"Got a death wish, kid?"
"Alright, alright!" The serpent muttered. "There is only one logical explanation of how you can send those gruesome things and understand me. Girl, you may have telepathic abilities."
"Hmm...telepathy and telekinesis." Leila pondered. "Throw in the fiery red hair and a badass costume and I'm a fucking Wanda."
"...You, what the heck are you talking about? Who's Wanda? Is that your name?"
Leila sighed, "No, my name is Leila, not Wanda. I don't do crappy names even though she was an awesome Avenger. Wait a minute, isn't rude to ask for other's name when you haven't even introduced yourself? Who's the barbarian now?"
"...I don't have one."
"Why not make one?"
Its large head, freed from Leila's power, slumped back to the ground. "I'm a superior being, and names are only given by masters I've chosen. For that, I have spent centuries trying to find myself one. But the people here are so weak, they disintegrate just by being in my presence, it's really annoying."
"Heh, sucks to be you."
The serpent blinked, "You really are a weird one, are you? You're the first one able to stay alive in my presence longer than a minute. Let me see...the last one to hold the record was a guy. I think he died after 46 seconds."
"That's awfully specific. So, what are you planning to do now?"
The serpent's ruby eyes stared at the ground. After moments of peaceful silence, its gaze returned back to Leila. "Girl, won't you form a contract with me?"
"Ha? I don't wanna."
If the creature was human, his jaw would've dropped in shock and disbelief. "Eh? Why not?"
"I don't really like troublesome things." She placed her hands on her chin. "I worked my ass off in my past life, so I'm trying to do things I haven't done before...like being lazy. Even if I did name you, what's in it for me?"
"Well, I am a very powerful superior being that mastered all elements."
"And?"
"...I can fight off your enemies, be your personal bodyguard, stuff like that."
"And?"
"I can do household chores, budget management, first aid, and uh...I can cook like Gordon Ramsay."
"And?"
The serpent's tail began to furiously beat the ground in desperation to think of other things that were more effective. When it found the answer it was looking for, the creature's eyes lit up. "I can do maths. Statistics, Algebra, Geometry...you name it!"
"Senpai." Leila snapped her fingers in approval, "You're hired!"



Author's Corner:
- 'Senpai' or 'Sempai', is a japanese word that means 'a schoolmate that is one/two/three year/s older or a senior student' (I used only three because Japan's school system are composed of only three years in high school, unlike some countries.)
- "Kaminari no kokyu, Ichi no kata: Hekireki Issen!" is a breathing technique from the anime Kimetsu no Yaiba. Our dear FL here is an otaku, so to you, my readers, be prepared for some japanese words. Mind the word 'some'

- Gordon Ramsay is a well-known British chef granted with Michelin star medals. He's well-known from television series 'Kitchen Nightmares', 'Hotel Hell', 'Hell's Kitchen' and etc. (Watch his series, they're very addicting!)

That's all, see you soon my darlings!
Lady Cappucino

Leila, an infamous female assassin who has lived her life embraced by darkness was killed by an explosion that was orchestrated by an enemy who also murdered her sister. 

Driven by rage, she swore a blasphemous oath and had opened her eyes once again to find herself in the body of the heroine's older sister. Who happens to be  same Liese of her past life.

However, there was a new enemy who threatens everyone she cared about. Hence, Leila prepared herself to her biggest, most dangerous undercover mission yet.

One where she would become the greatest villainess the world has ever seen.

The battle broke out, and the three males were pushed back. They were at Shattering the Core realm. 

'system, you said the reason why it's easier for one to reach Shattering the Core at age 20 and up is because of their souls, right? that will make sense as Linda just so happened to get an orb that strength her soul.' Wudi thought as he watched the fight.

*yes, host, the soul will help you with sensing the soul. The weaker the soul is, the less one would sense. As a cultivator get old, their soul gets strong, and when it reaches a point, they can breakthrough to Shattering the Core.* the system said as Wudi entered the system.

The fight wasn't something he could help with. He was still at level 6 foundation establishment. He wanted to break through to more realm soon.

"I never even heard of a way to strengthen the soul," he said softly as he looked at the orb that belonged to Linda.

Wudi had asked Linda to keep the orb within the system so the system can continue its scan none stop.

"by the way, how strong are the demon beast?" Wudi asked as he remembered about the demon beast.

*due to the strong energy and the food they eat, their cultivation is fast. At the moment host has 100 level 10 Core realm demon beast.* the system said

"then send 75 of them out to help Rui. He isn't a melee fighter." Wudi said as he began cultivating.

Outside, a small tiger walked out of the carriage as its size increased. Everyone fighting sensed this through their spiritual sense, but they notice it was just a level 10 core realm.

Suddenly the hawk appeared at its side, which flew up into the sky, the 3 makes didn't put much thought into this. But their face sent pale as they sensed many hawks falling from the sky falling towards them.

They also sensed many demon beasts surrounding them, as they ran towards one of them.

Linda, Rui, Ren, and the other 3 stopped fighting as they defended against the beast. If they had continued fighting, it would have just lead to their death.

But something happened, which angered the 3 no names guys. The demon beast and Rui turned towards one of the no-names and attacked.

The no-name didn't think Rui would be so stupid as to attack at the moment. There was 75 demon beast working together, so it was obvious there was a stronger demon beast waiting to make its move.

Different types of demon beast don't work together. But once a strong demon beast arrives, which can make all other demon beasts follow its orders.

There were many types of demon beast before them. Obviously, they were taking orders from some by how while they moved.

There were also more things to worry about. These demon beasts were not weak. Just around 20 of them were enough to hold them off. Also, demon beasts are stronger than human cultivators of the same level.

Them fighting among each other was stupid. They should team up to deal with this before killing each other.

"are stupid!" one of the no-names yelled, seeing one of them getting taken out by an underhanded move like that. 

Linda took this chance as her hair turned red. He punched forwards, making a snake making out if resentment energy fly forward and **** around him.

Wudi appeared at this moment, picked up the body of the person Rui killed, and left. He didn't want Linda to breakthrough at the moment. He didn't know if he could really breakthrough without needing to strengthen her soul.

The rest was easy as Linda and the others quickly killed them and put them into the system.

"so, this is everything we got from them. The only thing useful was the grade 3 Qi stones," Linda said as she went through all of their storage rings.

"I'm close to breaking through to level 7 foundation establishment, but I need at least 1 day," Wudi said as he walked towards the carriage.

*the system is now able to make formations. The system has scanned the 5 cultivators. The host needs to wait until he can use the unique energy.
Rui needs to wait until he is 15
Ren can do it at any moment he wishes.
Linda doesn't need to worry about it.* the system said

'good, what do you mean by use?' Wudi asked

*the energy will be to be mastered. Its power should be powerful. Far higher than all other forms of energies.* the system said as Wudi nodded.

"who was that?" Ren asked in shock.

"my martial spirit voice. You should breakthrough. Your soul is more than powerful enough," Wudi said calmly

"...then I will go and see," Ren said as he grabbed Rui's arm and pulled him away.

Wudi watched as they entered the animal space. Just as he was about to leave, Linda hugged him from behind.

"Why don't you trust?" Linda asked softly

"what do you mean?" Wudi asked as he got out of her hands.

"From day one, you always had a hawk follow me around, not letting me out of your sight. At first, I thought you were perfecting me. But now I notice that you don't want to get too far." she said with a lowered head.

"this world is all about benefits," Wudi said coldly

"not everything is about benefits, I could have removed the brainwashing my mind using the orb, but I didn't because I didn't mind it. you were my lifeline when I was at my lowest, but now I feel like you are just using me." Linda said as tears ran down her face.

"..." Wudi looked at her as images of the past entered his mind.

"you trash!" Wudi father yelled as he kicked Wudi access the room. Wudi hit the ground hard as he held his stomach and coughed up blood.

"all that time, you were just nice to me for benefits," Wudi asked as tears ran down his face.

"who in their right mind would be nice to trash. get out of this house." He yelled in anger as Wudi quickly ran out of there with his injuries.

The images of his father outlined with himself, and the image of his young self outlined with Linda.

"..." Wudi went quiet, as he just looked at Linda

Those with no talent have no place in this world. Those who can't see the truth of this world will only be used until they are dry.

The only thing that matters is strength. You have power, then your world is the law.

‘Accept!’ With a thought the cow horn bugle in Leylin’s hand was enveloped in  a layer of light that slowly turned it to ashes. 

Many images and words appeared in Leylin’s mind, getting recorded and analysed  by the A.I. Chip. Soon after, the same happened to the pink shell. 

Two new documents were stored in the A.I. Chip after this process, making a  look of satisfaction to appear on Leylin’s face. 

The little person, however, looked heartbrokenly at the pile of ashes.  Gathering the complete set of information, as well as finding an expert to  record it into a storage system, had taken a large amount of effort and wealth.  [Beep! New folders recorded: ‘Path of Offerings’ and ‘Beast Spirit magic’  (incomplete)] The A.I. Chip’s prompt appeared. Leylin could understand the  incompleteness, after all a tiny shop like this wouldn’t normally have such  profound information. 

When he saw that the techniques led all the way to the Morning Star level,  Leylin was slightly shocked. In the Magus World it was extremely rare to own a  high-grade meditation technique with four complete layers. This was certainly  the greatest treasure you could find within a small scale shop like this. 

On the surface, however, Leylin still furrowed his brows in dissatisfaction.  “This information seems to be incomplete…” he said, causing the little person  to quiver in fear. 

“My lord, my lord! These two sets of information were sent over from the Hail  Continent. Both have been inspected by the Holy Land, and are most certainly  complete. With these, one can cultivate to the Morning Star level. There’s no  doubt about it!” The little person exclaimed resolutely. 

‘Morning Star? It seems as though the Purgatory World follows the Magus  World’s ranking system.’ Leylin nodded and asked, “Then how would I be able to  get techniques above the Morning Star level?” 

This question seemed to put the little person in a difficult spot, “My lord,  there are various races with techniques above the Morning Star level, but these  are considered absolute secrets. Even getting this set of information was quite  risky.” 

The little person had spoken immediately upon seeing the grim look on Leylin’s  face, and he continued, “Wait, my lord, I know! You can definitely find  something within the Holy City of the Hail Continent, which is also the city of  the Snake Dowager’s descendants. Furthermore, you belong to the Alabaster  Devilsnake clan, so you’ll make it inside without any problems.” 

‘The Snake Dowager’s Descendants? Holy City?’ These names surprised Leylin.  This was probably the Snake Dowager’s base camp. 

Though Leylin still needed more information, revealing his unfamiliarity with  the Holy City would raise suspicions. Moreover, killing this little person to  shut his mouth would attract guards and make things even more difficult. 

“The Holy City is too far away. Are there no other methods?” Leylin’s eyes  narrowed as he sized up this little person in front of him. 

“I’m sorry my lord, but there really are no other ways!” The little person had  a suffering expression, and Leylin confirmed that he was telling the truth and  did not pressure him any further. 

Immediately after, Leylin proceeded to wipe the store clean. The little  person’s life was in Leylin’s hand, so he could do nothing about it. 

‘Hm? A map of the continent? Though it doesn’t seem to be very detailed, it  will still prove useful… 

‘This should be the beast spirit of a Godric. So even souls of Morning Star  beings can be collected? Though it’s only in its infancy, this spirit can still  be used.’ 

“I’ll also take this, and this, and that,” Leylin’s insight allowed him to  eliminate all the good things from the shop. 

“My- My lord!” The little person called out in a sobbing tone. He felt  desperate as he saw all his collection of treasures disappearing, and he  secretly regretted letting Leylin even enter his shop. 

Leylin found the little person’s manner hilarious, “Who do you think I am? Do  you really think I’d rob you and have you call for the garrison or the guards?  After all, I know the rules of Port Elias well!” 

Leylin’s words frightened the little person even further, “Respected lord!  This little one didn’t mean to…” 

“Alright, alright! I already told you I’d pay, so just take this,” said Leylin  as he threw a bag of pink pearls to the little person. 

Neither magic crystals nor astral stones could be used as currency in the  Purgatory World. Thus, Leylin wouldn’t take them out and risk revealing himself. 

Since the Purgatory World was not unified, there were all sorts of currencies  and measuring systems in the different dignitaries’ territories. Consequently,  bartering was still the main strategy in long distance trading. 

While on Geiger’s ship, Leylin had gathered many deep sea items using his own  strength. Although it was just for fun, he had collected quite a few good ones  with the A.I. Chip’s assistance and his soul force. Geiger was left stunned  when he discovered this, and ended up purchasing most of Leylin’s items with a  pile of pink pearls. 

Leylin was also willing to sell them, and in exchange receive items of  equivalent value that could be used in this world. 

These pink crystals were very popular here and had very high value. One small  bag was enough to buy everything in this shop. 

“Many… Many thanks, my lord! Oh, my lord, you are like the stars in the sky,  the darling of the many dignitaries! Your greatness, selflessness, impartiality  and fairness will be immortalised in song and spread throughout the myriad of  worlds…” 

Seeing that Leylin was serious about a fair transaction and was not  threatening him, the little person became emotional. A song of praise for  Leylin sprang from his lips immediately, but that only made Leylin shudder with  goosepimples. 

“Alright, alright, now our deal is complete, I’ll be off!” Unable to tolerate  the little person’s singing, Leylin took his items and left. After all, sound  transmitted through soul energy was worse than harsh noise. 

*Crash!* After he left, the two large shells outside the shop closed and  abruptly began to move, falling into the ocean nearby and splashing water  everywhere. 

“Hm? Why is Old Cripple’s shop closing so early today?” A few passersby were  astonished, “Doesn’t he find joy in prying into his customer’s secrets? There  was even that saltwater octopus who was scared to the point of going mad…” 

Soon after, they seemed to have thought of something, and they looked at  Leylin, who had just walked out of the shop, with reverence. However, he  quickly squeezed into the sea of people and disappeared without a trace. 

“It seems like this shop has quite a reputation? Though it doesn’t seem to be  a particularly good reputation,” Leylin shook his head speechlessly, and went  further inside the port. 

He could now confirm that the Snake Dowager was the dignitary that ruled over  the Hail Continent. He had to thoroughly plan how to conceal himself from her  and how to break his bloodline shackles. 

The first thing he had to do, however, was to settle down in Port Elias. The  night curfew here was very strict and if he did not get proof of his residence  before night fell, he would probably be forced to leave. However, he was only a  pink pearl away from resolving this issue.  …… 

When night fell, Leylin was standing on the balcony of a luxurious private  room in a hotel. He was gazing at the specks of light in Port Elias, and the  faraway lighthouse in the distance and the pitch-black sea. 

Near the port, many bright and beautiful images of every kind appeared, filled  with enchanting splendour. 

“It really is a prosperous and beautiful port…” Leylin’s eyes seemed to be  filled with a deep expression as he sighed lightly. 

After closing the curtains, he laid half his body down on the soft sofa and  sank into deep thought. The Snake Dowager was an unavoidable obstacle he had to  overcome if he wanted to break the bloodline shackles. Fortunately, she resided  in the Hail Continent. 

‘With my concealment techniques as well as the cover provided by the Mask of  the Dreamless, I should probably be able to hide from any large-scale soul  sweeps she attempts. Even within the Hail continent’s Holy City of snakes, I  might be able to hide myself as long as I don’t meet her personally…’ Leylin’s  eyes glinted. 

Not even beings who comprehended laws could quickly scan an entire continent,  let alone detect the life of every creature within it. Only if she reached Rank  9 would the Snake Dowager be able to do so. 

Right now Leylin was emanating the aura of an Alabaster Devilsnake. With this  layer of concealment, he could travel through the Hail Continent as if it was  his own back garden. 

Due to his research into bloodlines, Leylin was confident enough that even an  Alabaster Devilsnake itself would not be able to unveil his disguise. Unless,  of course, he came across a Rank 7 Alabaster Devilsnake or an Emperor. Leylin  knew, however, that the Snake Dowager would not allow the existence of such a  creature. 

“It looks like it’s necessary to risk entering the Hail Continent! I’ll need  to change my appearance.” Leylin had not altered his appearance on Geiger’s  ship, and afterwards he had just hid under his cloak in Port Elias. 

To be safe, he decided to change his appearance to sneak into the Hail  Continent. 

“I’ll need to add another layer of concealment to the Mask of the Dreamless.  In the Hail Continent, there will definitely be descendants of the Alabaster  Devilsnake with mixed blood. I just need to keep resembling them completely…” 

After thinking it through, Leylin looked gloomily at the large gray animal  statue on the tall mountain through his window, “What does the existence of the  Nefarious Filthbird here signify?” 

This was a port that belonged to the Hail Continent, yet people still followed  the Nefarious Filthbird. Leylin could not understand it, but the implications  presented here were worth ruminating over. 



Leylin is transported from an advanced technological era into a medieval world— except there’s magic. Equipped with only his quick wits and an A.I. chip fused to his soul, he sets out to become the most powerful magus the world has ever known. In a land divided into the Light and Dark Magi, the weak can either be cattle or disposable slaves. Only the strong can determine their lives, and only they have the luxury for virtue. Yet strength is only a tool for Leylin, like any other. His goal, in the end, is his own.

What happens when a scientist from a futuristic world reincarnates in a World of Magic and Knights?

An awesome MC — that’s what happens!

A scientist’s goal is to explore the secrets of the universe, and this is exactly what Leylin sets out to do when he is reincarnated. Dark, cold and calculating, he makes use of all his resources as he sets off on his adventures to meet his goal.

Face? Who needs that… Hmmm… that guy seems too powerful for me to take on now… I better keep a low profile for now.

You want me to help you? Sure… but what benefit can I get out of it? Nothing? Bye. 

Hmmm… that guy looks like he might cause me problems in the future. Should I let him off for now and let him grow into someone that can threaten me….. Nahhh. *kill*

The Hidden Territory is an enchanted Cosmo where threats and opportunities coexist.
One may come face-to-face with their greatest fears but also capture their greatest victories. In this magical universe, their lives countless beasts of the ninth-realm as well as a handful of creatures of the eighth-realm whose names send shivers down the spine of every cultivator.
This is a terrifying universe for any being that dares to venture into it.
After leaving the peak where he battled the great Xuan Ming Snake, Ling Xian, accompanied by his new pet, headed straight towards the location the defeated snake had revealed to him. The first day was rather uneventful. Most beasts scattered in fear at the sight of the great snake.
However, Ling Xian knew that in the days that followed, his will and skills would be tested like never before.
On the path between them and their destination, three horrendous beasts of the ninth-realm awaited them. All three both loathed the snake and were immune to its venom.
Backed by the snake, Ling Xian nearly defeated the Golden Tiger before the beast escaped, heavily wounded. However, the tiger returned, seeking revenge, with two more beasts of the ninth-realm.
Leaving the snake to battle the injured tiger, Ling Xian faced the two new threats himself.
With his sword in one hand, and summoning the Flames of Purity with the other, Ling Xian defeated the beasts after a bloodbath from which he emerged wounded.
A sixth level cultivator slaughtering two beasts of the ninth-realm, a stunning triumph!
Unfortunately for Ling Xian, he was unaware of what was coming for him. 
The beasts of the Hidden Territory enjoyed a close camaraderie, especially when confronted with outside intruders. The news of the beasts’ death began to spread like wildfire, sending shockwaves throughout the area. It stirred up a passionate thirst for revenge amongst the beastly occupants of the Territory. A terrifying beastly army had been raised to hunt down and slay Ling Xian and his companion.
More importantly, a powerful beast of the eighth-realm was amongst them!
To make matters worse, Ling Xian was not wounded lightly. His only chance for survival was to hide for the time being. Fortunately for him, the Hidden Territory was a massive area of intricate ecosystems and complex geographical ranges. He easily disappeared inside an empty cave.
If he was discovered, there was nothing else to do but to battle the beasts to the death. Using all of his magical weapons, creatures of the ninth-realm were not of an immediate concern. However, the one beast of the eighth-realm remained a real threat to Ling Xian's life. 
Despite his injuries and the imminent threat on his life, Ling Xian hoped to find opportunities from this seemingly hopeless situation.
Where there were threats, there were opportunities.
First, Ling Xian had slaughtered many beasts in the past few days. He had also inhaled their souls and powers as nurtured by the magical Qi of the Hidden Territory. Breaking through to the eighth level of cultivation was only a matter of time.
Second, the constant battle had awakened the untapped potential inside Ling Xian. His sense grew keener, and his skills sharper. He had become a veteran. 
Throughout his cultivation journey, Ling Xian has engaged in several battles. However, never once did he achieve victory through combat. Through the experiences of the past few days, he has become a warrior.
The moon shone brightly over the corpse-infested waters of the magical Cosmo.
Ling Xian stood underneath his bloodied cloak, surrounded by a deathly aura. 
Around him, the rivers have turned into the color of blood and corpses were scattered everywhere. It was hell on earth.
A vicious battle had apparently taken place here.
"Ooooohhh, hhooooo…"
Ling Xian breathed heavily, body bent, clutching a bloodied chest covered in open wounds.
Moments ago, he was confronted by a dozen revenge-seeking beasts. 
Following a brutal battle, he managed to slaughter all of them. However, he did not escape unscathed. He had consumed nearly all of his powers, broken at least five ribs, and suffered what felt like significant nerve damage.
"Adding fuel to fire." Ling Xian shooked his head. "Look at me, any beast could finish me off." Looking up at the Xuan Ming Snake, wrapped around a wooden branch of an ancient oak tree, he felt a hint of uneasiness. "Little snake, this is your chance, finish me off." He chuckled. 
The snake looked down, shocked and confused. 
It didn’t wish to submit to a human. It chose submission because the alternative was death. Now, there was nothing left for the human. Its inner demons began to hijack its thoughts. 
However, seeing the soft smile on Ling Xian’s face, and the dismembered corpses scattered all around them, it remembered how the human had fought all those beasts at once. The snake knew how strong and special this human is. 
The snake thought back to the earth-shattering battles of the past few days.
15 minutes!
He used only 15 minutes to slaughter a dozen beasts of the ninth-realm!
The snake could never forget the bright silvery flames, the determined glares that shot out of his eyes, and the sword that constantly replaced old blood stains with fresh ones.
Nor could it erase the image of a warrior holding his sword, a hero, and a story for the ages.
A divine figure, the pride of nations, and a myth feared by gods and devils alike. 
For the Xuan Ming Snake, these memories brought him unrelinquishable fear, but it has also ignited within it uncontrollable adoration. The snake could not decide.
However, it had a choice to make.
Kill him, regain freedom, return home, and continue to rule its land and subjects. However, even by doing so, it would never become more powerful than it already was.
Follow him, lose freedom, and do his biddings until death. This human had displayed powers beyond what anyone would have imagined possible. One day he will become great, and perhaps rule the known world. It could be a part of that.
Seeing the indecisive snake, Ling Xian lowered his voice. "Still thinking about whether you should follow me or kill me? Don’t trouble yourself. Just swing that tail and kill me. However…"
"...even if you try, I am not sure you can actually kill me." Ling Xian continued with a warm and inviting smile.
However, his smile was darkened by his sad state. His dark hair danced in the wind, and he was drenched in blood from head to toe.
The snake couldn’t help but recount the images of Ling Xian mercilessly slaughtering one beast after another, layering their pitiful bodies on top of the shattered corpses of their dead comrades. Still sweating ice buckets, the snake slithered down the tree towards Ling Xian. "Master, you are speaking nonsense. I would never hurt you when you’re in this state."
"Oh? Is that so? Then why were you hesitating just now?" Ling Xian continued to smile, but the snake could swear it saw a killer's intentions behind that smile.
"That… this…" the snake muttered. "Oh yes! I was lost in the depth of my thoughts. I was recalling your warrior-like skills and bravery and… a dozen beasts! Perhaps not all of them have reached the ninth-realm, but you slaughtered so many of them! And you, master, slaughtered them all without breaking a sweat! My admiration for you is like… the waves of the ocean that never stops crashing down on top of…"
The snake paused, suddenly noticing the deadly glare it was getting from Ling Xian. The creature swallowed its words and began to fidget uncomfortably. I couldn’t help but wonder how Ling Xian would punish it this time.
The Xuan Ming Snake understood perfectly that Ling Xian saw right through its thought process and erected a wall of distrust. However, since it had made its choice, there was no going back now.
No matter what the human wanted, the snake would oblige.
"To tell you the truth, that is rather regretful. If you had chosen a different path, I would be having some delicious snake stew by now." Ling Xian feigned a sigh.  
Deep down, he was relieved. Three days of bloody battles, and although he was victorious, the victories came neither easily nor swiftly. In the process of slaying all those powerful beasts, Ling Xian had been forced to use every last drop of his spiritual energy. Not to mention a beast, in his current state, any human could easily finish him off. 
However, he had no choice but to continue pretending as if he was only exhausted, and that he could still summon his powers if he so wished. He could not show even the faintest hint of weakness in front of the snake. 
Hearing this, the snake became petrified. It whispered a little prayer, thanking the heavens for the smart choice it had just made. Had it chosen poorly, it would be a skinless meat stew by now. 
The Xuan Ming Snake was indeed quite stupid. Even though in the creature’s early days, it had gained some human wisdom, its current level of intelligence was equivalent to that of a ten-year-old child. Hence he believed, wholeheartedly, what Ling Xian had just said. To kill it, Ling Xian would only need to raise one finger. 
"Get up! Stop lying there like a useless toolbox. Find me a cave. If more beasts smell blood and come this way, I’ll kill you first," Ling Xian demanded impatiently. 
"Yes, yes Master. I know a hiding place not far from here. You stay and wait right there." The snake then moved quickly towards Ling Xian and secured him on its back. Then it morphed into a flash of light and disappeared under a cloud of dust. 
The snake was taking him to a place it had once called home.

He accidentally acquired a painting inhabited by nine souls that claimed to be immortal.

"where am I" Williams sits while glancing at his surrounding, which appeared to be pitch black "hello anyone around"

"What lurks in the dark, are said to be ancient and never to be revealed" a loud deep voice echoes the surrounding

"hello, " turning around to find the source of the voice but to no avail

"But the ignorance of man is his destruction and also his salvation" the voice echoes again

"Okay you can stop the jokes now, please put on the lights it's quite scary and cold here" trying to cave in the heat from his body while snuggling the blanket 

" JOKES....YOU THINK THIS IS A JOKE, DO YOU KNOW THE PRESENCE OF WHOM YOU ARE IN AT THIS VERY MOMENT" the voice echoed more loudly causing Williams to muffle the loud sound with his hands as the raging cold assaulted his every being

"So you basically have amnesia...well it doesn't matter....what can I call you......and why cant I see you...that's very creepy"

"IN DUE TIME MR WILLIAMS, IN DUE TIME"

"What do you mean by that , you saying I'm still not worthy" William shrugs off the blanket as he gets up from the bed" I would let you know, I won first places English decathlon  7 times , so I don't think I won't be able to process anything you say " standing with his chest while expressing pride"

"HA HA HA" the laughter resounded "YOU ARE THE FIFTH TO MAKE ME LAUGH IN YEARS, ALL MY MASTERS SOUGHT AFTER  WERE POWER AND RICHES," the darkness began to swirl taking the form of a human cloaked in darkness as it began to approach Williams "BUT FROM YOU I SENSE OTHERWISE.....IF YOU WISH TO KNOW MY NAME, YOU MUST FIRST KNOW THE ORIGIN" As a blinding light shone

"Drekanic is a language, in history it's said to be the gibberish the early cave men spoke,  but it was so unstable, as the only language then it was spoken by all man, animal, Angel's, gods and Demons, then civilization came in and with it new languages until it was forgotten and became nothing more than a tale" he replies while watching the door"I'm afraid what we are dealing with here is way older than we can imagine", he shows utter seriousness "and the term greater evil  is an understatement here"

Inside the monitoring room, Wang Liang was looking at the screen showing the images of Liu Yang's group, he and Liu Xia were the students who piqued his interest. One reason is that he has been approved by the teacher named Cao Wen, and the other is because she has a master's control of the elements, which is also why Liu Xia has caught his attention. Luckily, they were both a couple, and it was easier to watch them both.
 
"Commander, look. It looks like this group has found an adult Verdant Snake and it looks like the snake is almost reaching rank 3 for now, the snake is only in rank 2 and is equivalent to a level 9 intermediate mage. This is going to be dangerous. Commander, what are we going to do? "One of the soldiers asked.
 
"Keep Watching" Wang Liang was also paying attention to Yao Mu's group.
 
When they saw Liu Xia attack with her ability to try to immobilize the snake, the soldiers understood that the group was able to locate the camouflaged snake.
 
Then all the members attacked the snake's head together, it made it furious and went out of hiding to see its prey. The next scene was Yao Mu and the other students running away, leaving only Liu Yang and Liu Xia in place.
 
"Interesting, it looks like this couple intends to fight the Verdant Snake" Wang Liang praised, he was surprised to see that Liu Yang and Liu Xia were willing to fight the snake, but how? He didn't know, because the gap between the two sides was too large.
 
According to the information that Wang Liang received from the East School, Liu Yang was just a level 5 novice mage, while Liu Xia was a level 1 intermediate mage. Even using magical equipment, the two would have no chance against the Verdant Snake.
 
"Commander, do you think the couple has a chance of winning this fight?" A soldier asked curiously.
 
"I do not know. The two may just be trying to buy time for the others to run away, and they must run away later. Let's keep watching and see what they will do. "That was Wang Liang's opinion.
 
Then the images showed Liu Xia running first to somewhere, Liu Yang attacked the snake and started running in the same direction that Liu Xia had gone.
 
But a surprising thing happened soon after, when the little robot that was transmitting the images arrived near where Liu Yang and Liu Xia were, the images disappeared from the screen, the screen went black and the soldiers went into shock.
 
 
 
"What happened??!!!"
 
"Why did the images disappear ?? !!!!"
 
"Commander, something wrong may have happened !!"
 
…
 
"Keep calm!! Let's keep watching. We don't have to worry about that. "Wang Liang said solemnly, he realized that someone had done something with the camera or a barrier was raised to prevent the camera from the record.
 
(Looks like the couple is hiding something… They must have done it so that no one saw what they were doing, what are they going to do? Do they have enough power to defeat the snake?) These thoughts came to mind Wang Liang when he thought about it.
 
A few minutes later, the images came back.
 
The only things they could see were the destroyed trees, the flat ground and a large hole in the ground. Blood was scattered and the giant snake's body was completely cut and skinless, the head was opened and something inside was removed, the belly was cut long and all the organs were cut and missing some pieces. The snake has been dissected.
 
"Commander, this is…" The soldiers couldn't believe the scene they were seeing, it seemed like a big dream. The scary snake was dissected.
 
"Looks like they're hiding something ..." Wang Liang muttered, but then he issued an order.
 
"Commander, this is amazing. This couple must be hiding their cultivation level or they have some kind of powerful equipment. "A soldier said.
 
"I think it's the first option, the couple must be hiding their cultivation. Because there is no trace of equipment being used, it proves that they used only magical power to beat the snake. "Wang Liang deduced that when the equipment was used, a special type of energy could be detected. Since there was no such energy in place, Wang Liang deduced that the couple defeated the snake using only magical power.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
"Commander, this is amazing. If they are hiding their cultivation, they must be extremely powerful, and they are only first-graders and only sixteen."One soldier spoke impressively, this was the first time he had seen this kind of situation.
 
"That may be true, but you still don't understand that there is probably some extremely powerful teacher teaching the couple? It is impossible for someone who has come from a common background to achieve these achievements without a teacher.
 
Also, there is one more thing, although the couple has the same surname, they do not have the same blood, the girl was adopted by the boy's family. I don't think it's a coincidence, I think the girl must have an extremely powerful master. I guess that this master has at least one Great Mage's cultivation. "Wang Liang spoke solemnly, from the information he received, he was able to deduce a few things. But it was a pity that there were right and wrong things.
 
"Commander, having a Great Mage as a master is incredible, but someone of this caliber must be someone you know. Do you have any idea who this might be? "
 
"No, within the country there are many Great Mages, but many are unknown, they prefer not to reveal themselves and this is not something we should intrude on. If the couple is hiding their cultivation, they must have a good reason for it. Our job is to watch out so no one gets serious injuries. Let's try to locate the couple, they made a great fortune by skinning the snake. As they left the meat, let's take it to sell, we also need some extra money. "The commander said cheerfully, as the couple left the snake meat behind, they were happy to take it to them.
 
"Yes, commander !!" The soldiers shouted with joy, the snake meat was worth a great deal of money.
 
(Where did you go? It seems like you two are the luckiest participants in all these years that I'm the camp's watchman.) Wang Liang wanted to find out where the couple hid.
 
…
 
Several soldiers were dispatched to take the snake meat back to the base.
 
To drag the body of several tens of tons was extremely tiring, the soldiers had to ask for help to take. This took several hours to complete.
 
…
 
 
In a place a little distance from where the snake was defeated, the place was a big tree twenty meters high and two meters in diameter, the branches were as thick as an adult's arm, the leaves were as big as a double bed.
 
In the middle of the tree trunk, fifty feet high was a large hole fifty inches across. Inside there was nothing but dirt and dust, some fruit remnants could be seen.
 
But inside the tree, it was possible to hear strange sounds like something breathing heavily. Where was this sound coming from?
 
Going down to the ground inside the tree was a couple intertwined, they were kissing and naked, their bodies were connected. The gentle movements of the man and the seductive groans of the woman were like a heavenly song. The couple was Liu Yang and Liu Xia.
 
After dissecting the snake, the couple fled the scene and hid, they were exhausted, their magical energies were almost over, and the one who was suffering the most was Liu Yang because he needed to keep Liu Xia in the real world if his magical power runs out, she will be sent to his spiritual space. This was something Liu Yang didn't want to happen. Because of this, Liu Yang used what little magical power he had to carry Liu Xia to safety, as in the worst-case their secret would not be discovered.
 
After finding a good place to rest, Liu Xia carried Liu Yang to the big tree hole, they hid inside for a few minutes to regain some energy.
 
Liu Xia used some power to create a hole inside the hole to the underground, the trunk of the tree descending a few meters underground before reaching the roots. To avoid leaving clues, Liu Xia used the power of wood to regenerate the parts she destroyed.
 
In the end, all traces of magical power and alterations have been hidden and cleared, no one will know that the couple is inside the tree doing activities.
 
Liu Yang and Liu Xia were doing activities for several days, but they only did for an hour or two before stopping, they used the double meditation method at the same time.

Liu Yang is a young mage who managed to awaken his powers later. Because of this, he was considered trash by others who woke up earlier. On the day of the awakening of his powers, he summoned a beautiful girl who became his partner.

She was beautiful and powerful, all she did was a hundred times as much as he did, but to her, everything he did was the most amazing thing in the world. She didn't have a name, so Liu Yang gave her that name, Liu Xia.

Liu Xia became his master and taught all the principles of magic to Liu Yang, all he needed to know, she taught. And the most important thing in training was her most important principle.

Her principle was: Be frugal when using magic.

Because of this, Liu Yang has always used the least amount of magic power possible when casting his spells.

Always using this principle in his training and life, Liu Yang has been nicknamed the Frugal Mage.

Ron gave an evil smile to them and he changed his form into a large snake and he crawled towards Maria to eat her up but she saw him and jumped aside.

Kayra looked towards the net and shouted," It's not Ron it's an image, Ron is trapped by us mistakenly, run Maria!!". 

While Maria was escaping from the snake Kayra was busy to somehow take out Ron from the net and she was successful but Alas! The other two images were also released.

And one of them took the form of a huge Centipede and moved towards Kayra, the other of a tiger and it ran towards Ron.

Actually the images have taken a form to which they feared the most. The fight was now with their own deadliest fears. 

Ron," Remember these are not real creatures they are just their images and if we be brave then we will definitely find a way to defeat them." 

The centipede was so fast that it suddenly appeared in front of Kayra, she screamed but then she remembered that if she will burn it, it will be killed, so, she ran as fast as she can and there appeared a fire fish( hypothetical fish which can produce a fire that can stay in water too) infront of the centipede, it was called by Kayra, and then she ordered the fish to produce it's all fire and burn the centipede and so did the fish, when the beast was very close to Kayra just then the fish attacked it and it started burning, Kayra was relieved.

Maria was running hastily, Kayra came near her and said," Maria Don't panic the snake will be defeated like the centipede just think of a way it could be defeated with."

And Kayra disappeared from there and reached the palace as she was successful. 

Maria started thinking and then she remembered that on land every snake was controlled by snake charmers by their Pungi. But how can she get it there, but suddenly an idea came to her she threw thorns at the snake to keep it busy. 

And then she made a pungi of plants with her magic and then when the snake was about to reach her she started playing it and the snake lost it's control and started dancing, she played it unless the beast fell down and disappeared.

Ron was still followed by the deadly tiger. Maria came to her and said," Brother, remember you were given a sword by Miopione before we have come here, you may use it now to kill the tiger."

Saying this she also disappeared and reached to Kayra in the palace. 

Ron," To summon the sword I have to enchant a mantra but if I will stop it's gonna eat me up." 

Thinking of something Ron turned towards the tiger and created a huge wave of water and threw towards the tiger, it was trapped inside that water ball. 

Ron began chanting that mantra and within few minutes he was having the sword in his hands. 

Till then the tiger also escaped from the water ball and it was staring angrily at Ron, Ron was looking in his eyes bravely.

The tiger jumped at him and Ron held the sword vertically towards the tiger and he closed his eyes. He gave a strong hit in it's stomach and the tiger fall down and lay dead infront of him.

He was breathing heavily and then he came back in the palace. The sisters were overjoyed to see him amd they all hugged each other. 

They were all dead tired since morning and now it was evening. They sat down and took some rest and then they went down to have their dinner. And they were talking and eating and the day passed by...
