Chapter 3 (1/2)
“Kill!!!”
A deafening shout filled every corner of the city.
Outside the city moat, banners fluttered in the wind, and troops rushed forth along with the heavy rumbling sounds by the horses' hooves. Far away, there still seemed to be countless troops which were rapidly heading towards the huge city’s moat.
At this moment, the city was like a small boat in the wind and rain, with a possibility of being destroyed at any time.
Up in the sky, there were around 10 powerful cultivators fighting. Among them, at the core was a middle-aged man who was wielding a sword and was soloing 5 old men dressed in different colors.
Boom!
Followed by the fierce and violent sword fight with the core, there were instantly many terrifying energy fluctuations one after the other that spread to all directions. At this time, the sky was filled with sword lights and sword qi. The collision of the sword lights caused surges of turbulence, changing the color of the sky and the ground!
Though the middle-aged man was fighting against 5, as the fight progressed, he was finally at a disadvantage. It was at that split second that one of the 5 old men seized the opportunity of the crack in the middle-aged man’s defensive light barrier, and the long sword in his hand instantly thrust towards the middle-aged man’s chest.
This sword was completely unavoidable.
Upon seeing this scene, two mournful screams suddenly sounded from above the city wall.
“No!”
It was from a youth and a beautifully dressed pretty wife. Their complexion was bleak and effusing out from within their eyes were an endless despair and madness.
“Qing Xue, bring Yu’er away! Bring him into that place and use that secret technique…” The middle-aged man seemed to have already known that that sword was unavoidable so he abruptly turned his head and shouted to the beautifully dressed wife.
In a flash, that sword was already before the middle-aged man’s chest.
……
“No! Don’t! Don’t!”
Su Yu abruptly opened his eyes and then rose to sit up on his bed as he gasped for breath.
“It’s this dream again! Why am I familiar with the scene?”
“What kind of past experience did this body’s owner have? Why was he buried in the G.o.d Burial Desert? Why do I always have that dream? What’s the relations.h.i.+p between the middle-aged man in the dream and the body’s owner?”
These were the questions Su Yu would ponder over ever since he had exited the G.o.d Burial Desert. Till now, although he asked himself these questions every time that dream ended, he did not think too much about it because he knew that overthinking it was useless because the current him was simply unable to think of an answer.
From then, it had been close to half a month since he had come out of the G.o.d Burial Desert. He remembered the moment he walked out of the G.o.d Burial Desert, he was half-dead, but fortunately, he had succeeded in walking out.
Su Yu shook his head then got out of the bed. He then walked to the table and leaned his head forward. Through the water in the wooden basin, he saw the face of a youth. The face of the youth that was reflected on the surface of the water was naturally the current Su Yu's.
“Were the scenes in the dreams your past memories?” Su Yu looked at the unfamiliar face reflected on the water surface and absent-mindedly murmured.
Correct, he had transmigrated. Even if he didn't want to believe it and was unwilling to admit it, the facts before him were like this.
In his past life, due to a traffic accident that occurred during his childhood, his parents left him at an early age. Afterward, he started to live by himself. When he graduated from a university, he entered an archaeology inst.i.tute. Who knew that during an archaeology expedition, he would unexpectedly transmigrate to this kind of world and that his soul had attached itself to a stranger’s body.
Unfortunately, he only inherited the body of the original owner and not together with the original owner’s memories.
Hence he did not know the status of the original owner.
However, through the dream, he was very grateful to the original owner as he would very naturally have a touched feeling as if the youth in his dream was he himself! Hence he was able to once again feel the paternal and maternal love.
Su Yu shook his head again and forcefully pushed his doubts and questions aside.
He began to ponder how he was going to survive in this world.
Through his previous meeting at the G.o.d Burial Desert with Ye Jian Xing, who had used the spiritual technique to forcefully impart information into his brain, he knew that the continent he was currently in was called Endless Continent.
Endless Continent, limitless and boundless. On the Continent where the imperial stood, the imperial is supreme!
On this continent, there were 5 regions which were known as Northern Profound Region, Southern Profound Region, Eastern Profound Region, Western Profound Region, and the Central Province. These 5 big regions were ruled by the 5 big imperials, namely Northern Yan, Southern Chu, Eastern Yun, Western Qin, and Central Yuan.
These 5 big imperials governed around 100 large and small dynasties. The deceased Ye Jian Xing was from the Da Xia Dynasty, and it was affiliated with the Southern Chu Imperial in the Southern Region.
In the Endless Continent, the path to be a cultivator was the norm as the strong were respected!
Cultivators were able to guide the spiritual qi in the heaven and earth into their bodies to continue tempering and refining themselves. Those cultivators who were able to cultivate to the profound level were able to cause mountains to collapse and great rivers to run dry. Those who cultivate further would be able to comprehend the laws of heaven and earth. They would be able to fly a hundred thousand li in a flash, and their fights would cause the heaven and earth to change.
That being the case, Endless Continent had billions upon billions of people who might possess the apt.i.tude to be a cultivator, but those people were extremely few that they numbered one in a million. Therefore, in this continent, cultivators were an existence to be respected by mortals.
Of course, these things had not the slightest bit of relation with the current Su Yu because he was simply unable to determine whether he had the apt.i.tude to cultivate.
Thus when he thought up to this point, Su Yu had a headache.
He recalled that at the G.o.d Burial Desert that Ye Jian Xing had already entrusted his little sister to him, wanting him to find her and take care of her. However, with the current him, don’t mention finding Ye Jian Xing’s little sister, Ye Wan Qing, but rather, what was he going to do after finding her? Did he even have the power to?
