Chapter 98 - True motive of the Evil force (1/2)

(Do take note that the whole chapter would be from the view of Orochi reading to Nightin)

This would have to date back to a thousand years ago, this happened on one of the Overlord realms where the weak are meant to be slaves since birth.

Any mortal or anyone born without the qualifications to cultivate would immediately be killed, all those who fail to achieve the Martial Emperor by the age of eighteen would be killed and those who don't achieve the Martial Saint realm by the age of twenty five would face the same fate.

That was however a hidden truth to those from other ranking realms, even those from the high grade realms didn't know about the cruelty going on behind the scenes.

It was truly a world where people experience the true meaning of despair, their cries and plea turns into nothing but hopelessness.

It was a common sight to see cultivators walking about with slaves serving their every needs, the slaves were treated inhumanely and were only given life resources when they truly needed it just to survive, they were always starving and dehydrated.

They were trapped in the bottom of the ocean where light was blocked off from them, no matter how much they try to rise up, the suction force would always pull them deeper in.

This resulted in many youths already being matured at the young age of six. In the Overlord realm, maturing at six means that you're only average and that the only way to breakthrough to the Martial Saint realm before the age of twenty five, would be to put in much more effort than others.

Those geniuses would already be mature at the age of three, some already knew how to cultivate at the age of one, they didn't know what it means to rest which is why they despise cultivators from lower ranking realms.

That's why you'll never see anyone waking about in those Overlord realms without a cultivation of at least the Martial Saint realm, that's because those below are already living in hell.

The Evil Overlord was one of those slaves himself, he was enslaved at the young age of eight because someone crippled his cultivation, he was the shining star in everyone's eyes when he made it to the Martial Emperor realm at the age of seven, many were still struggling at the Martial Spirit or even Martial Master realm at that time.

Yet his beloved parents actually betrayed him as they poisoned him, his father even forcibly extracted his spiritual root from his body and shattered it into energy for his own personal gains before throwing him onto the streets.

It was a old auntie who found him, the auntie who found him was just a mortal as well who has been living in the slums ever since birth, they had formed a small village of mortals secretly of about a few thousand in these years.

When the old auntie brought her back, many people scolded her with the same comment ”What do you think you're doing by bringing back a stinky brat? What if he turns out to be a traitor!”

The old auntie ignored those scoldings and cared for him truly from the bottom of her heart, she would always give him the best food and best clothing she can, she placed herself before him and gave him the chance to experience what love felt like.

Yet this blissful love was short lived, news of their village had somehow managed to spread to the outside world as they slaughtered each and every single one of the old and young.

Those females with prettier looks were kept alive to be used by them, those males who were fit enough were enslaved by them, youths who weren't willing to give in were treated as child slaves and were used for menial tasks.

The Evil Overlord at that time was one of those child slaves, he hid in the dark and managed to find another way of cultivation without any spiritual root, he made use of the spirits of those people who died innocently as they willingly use their last strand of life to help him build up a catalyst to hold spirit energy.

This was however unknown to the slave traders as they made him do every task which a child shouldn't be doing, from mopping to sweeping to washing the toilets and even carrying heavy loads and many more, all these were already too much for even the fittest males, not to mention a young child like him.

This continued on until he reached the age of twelve, he smiled to himself and prepared to embrace the world with his newfound strength, a early stage Martial Emperor realm with the ability to kill anyone at the Saint realm, including those at the completion stage.

Many people treated him as a genius and many forces tried to rope him in, but he rejected all of them and even built up his own force which he names the Evil force.

Many objected to this name and said that it brought about a ominous feeling, but he would always rebut by saying ”There's nothing wrong with a name alright? Has my sect done anything wrong?”

When he first created the Evil force, no one was willing to join him for ten years straight, but he wasn't willing to give up to fate as he finally stepped past the Martial Saint realm and entered the Great Saint realm.

At the age of twenty, he was walking down the streets every single night and found eight child slaves within that year which were suffering from the same fate as him ten years ago, his eyes watered as he felt pitiful for them. Curse his world, I'll destroy all these corrupted humans one day!

He took all of them in and even helped them to build a spiritual root with the same method, the child slaves learnt from him and soon, their fame resounded across the whole Overlord realm as well.
