Forbidden Seal

Smith Gigo's attack directly hit the shield created by the finger of Tiberius Julius's hand. The shield formed a bright white light. The brilliance of the shield made Smith Gigo's almost three-quarters of the deployed attack disappear instantly. The attack was like a drop of water hitting the ocean, leaving no trace.

Experiencing this event, Smith Gigo was truly surprised. He did not expect that his launched attack could be blocked by Tiberius Julius. In fact, Smith Gigo had no idea what technique Tiberius Julius used. He had never seen the Tiberius family use a technique that could summon a shield in the form of that light.

It wasn't just Tiberius Julius who made Smith Gigo appear shaken. Even Smith Gigo's assistants were intimidated by the young master of the Tiberius family. They never expected that the young master of the Tiberius family could defeat their leader. Being mostly low-level cultivators, they could gauge the power possessed by Tiberius Julius. They guessed that Tiberius Julius was at least at the ninth level of the heavenly spiritual realm to perform such a technique.

Miller, who was Tiberius Julius's personal assistant, also experienced a similar confusion. He had never anticipated that the young master possessed the power to easily break Smith Gigo's attack. Even the young master seemed to smile as if belittling the attack by Smith Gigo. From this incident, Harris was convinced that his young master harbored a mysterious power unknown to others.

Although the previous attack had proven that Smith Gigo's strength was below Tiberius Julius's, Smith Gigo did not lose hope. He then directed his power to its peak. Smith Gigo unleashed the forbidden technique of summoning a spiritual beast, a technique forbidden in his family. This technique was only allowed for Smith Gigo to use when facing an enemy that threatened his life.

A greenish circular portal appeared right above Smith Gigo's head at a distance of about 10 spears. Suddenly, a giant black bird emerged from the circle. The bird was a soul-eater originating from the power of the underworld. Using this technique, everyone in that place became extremely frightened, except for Tiberius Julius, who remained calm.

No wonder, the soul-eating bird from the dimensions of the underworld could destroy someone's soul, making their death very gruesome. Because those killed by the soul-eating bird could not reincarnate. That's why this technique was strictly prohibited in the Starfall family except in desperate situations.

"You foolish child! Why would you use that technique to spar with young master Tiberius? Quickly retract the summoning technique of the soul-eating bird from the underworld. If not, I will personally end you!"

In this critical moment, a sudden appearance of an old man, along with Tiberius Julius's grandfather, the leader of the Tiberius family, occurred. The old man was the leader of the Starfall family, the same age as Tiberius Julius's grandfather. They happened to meet and decided to tour the city, stumbling upon their two grandchildren engaged in battle.

Initially, the leaders of the two prominent families in the city allowed the fight between Tiberius Julius and Smith Gigo to continue. However, when Smith Gigo began to use the forbidden technique of summoning the black soul-eating bird from the underworld, the leader of the Tiberius family urged the leader of the Starfall family to have his grandson stop the attack. Both of them knew how ruthless the soul-eating bird could be.

Hearing his grandfather's reprimand, Smith Gigo withdrew the spiritual beast he had summoned earlier. By writing several mantras and seals around the portal he had opened, the bird suddenly soared upward and entered the portal again. Smith Gigo then approached the leader of his family, kneeling to show respect. Similarly, Tiberius Julius paid his respects to his grandfather.

"Let's go home!" the grandfather invited Tiberius Julius.

After bidding farewell and exchanging pleasantries with the leader of the Starfall family, Tiberius Julius, along with his grandfather, left the place, followed by Harris. During the journey, the grandfather regretted what had happened earlier. He mentioned that Tiberius Julius had been too impulsive in facing Smith Gigo with the abilities he currently possessed. In terms of strength, Tiberius Julius was still superior to Smith Gigo. However, the spiritual beast he owned could easily eliminate Tiberius Julius if the fight had continued.

The leader of the Tiberius family explained to Tiberius Julius about the uniqueness of the spiritual beast owned by the Starfall family. While they didn't have such a spiritual beast, the leader of the Tiberius family explained that they possessed a spiritual weapon stored in their family's secret chamber. However, no one had ever been able to retrieve the sword.

"May I try to retrieve it, Grandfather?" Tiberius Julius asked, curious about the Tiberius family's weapon when his family's leader explained.

"It is not yet time for you to attempt to retrieve our family's ancestral sword. It would be very risky if you were to take it now. You should at least be at the ninth level of the heavenly spiritual realm. Otherwise, your body and soul will be destroyed facing the guardian of the ancestral sword," replied the leader of the Tiberius family to his beloved grandson.

Tiberius Julius, the newly incarnated deity of light, furrowed his brow. He was unaware of what kind of weapon could be so dangerous as to destroy someone's soul and body. However, Tiberius Julius did not want to contradict his grandfather's words. He didn't want to arouse suspicion about his current existence.

"In that case, I will train harder and more diligently, Grandfather. So that I can break through to the ninth level of the heavenly spiritual realm and be able to use our family's heritage. That way, no one will dare to oppress our family. They will see how the Tiberius family rises again and dominates the cultivation world."

Tiberius Julius appeared enthusiastic as he spoke these words of encouragement before the leader of the Tiberius family. In reality, the words spoken truly originated from the thoughts that once existed within Tiberius Julius's original body. As a deity of light capable of delving into the depths of the will and mind of his new physical form, he revealed this to the leader of the Tiberius family. He genuinely considered himself as Tiberius Julius, thus regarding the leader of the Tiberius family as his true grandfather.
