A sharp light appeared in the eyes of the Scarlet King as he heard those words. The way the old man spoke could be considered rubbish since it was already an iron rule that dual cultivation was a dead end, but he felt the certainty in the man's words.
"Well, that is all I had to say."
The old man stood up and turned around, walking into the forest, but he threw an object before leaving the Scarlet King's sight.
The Scarlet King caught it and saw it was a starry gem, the object cultivators use to store Saint Techniques.
"It will only open once you've washed it with your Essence and Astral Wave after both paths reach the Apotheosis Realm." As those words reached the Scarlet King, the old man suddenly vanished with the current of winds.
"Apex?"
Although the Scarlet King had absolute confidence in his skill and path, the sudden appearance of the old man and the starry gem were shocking enough for him to ask for advice from his ancient partner.
