32 Arc 2-chapter 13

Tian saw 3 remnant pages of Temporal demon spirit book inside the chest along with a chunk of crystals. He can feel his soul tremble seeing the blood of the primordial beast.

He immediately absorbed the pages and sat on meditative state refining the blood Essence of the beast. The pages once again turned into nothingness while the runes turned into a blood mass as the Quetzalcoatl bathed in the blood.

This time the blood expanded and contracted as the Quetzalcoatl Devoured the essence of the blood. It gained pale Golden fur on its scales .

Tian doesn't know it yet but he stayed in the same position and Cultivated for days.

The same pain assaulted Xiao Tian but this time , he felt he is feeling it forever until he opened his eyes suddenly , shock visible in his face.

At the same time at another part of the ancient orchid ruins.

Xiao Ninger felt exhausted, she's been staying active all this time avoiding traps inside the trap door she entered into . She also ran away searching for Tian , she's aware that Nie lie is with Ziyun so, she's not worried about her.

She activated the Gem and was safe during the whole ordeal. After few hours , the beasts actually became extremely tired after causing destruction. When she's searching for her brother, she came across a trap door and went inside of it. She Instinctively know all the abilities of the Gem once she activated the Gem so, trusting the barrier ability, she went to search for him. Knowing him, she thought he'll definitely explore this kind of place .

She's been traveling here in circles for days but nothing is special here apart from traps that can kill you. Getting to a safe place she began Cultivating her soul force . She's already at peak of 4 star Bronze rank, if she could break through now , she can be extra energitic. She's not eating anything for days but soul force can nourish her for few days and it is running out now.

She began Cultivating the Technique and as the same time she broke through to the 5 star Bronze rank.

Xiao Tian completely refined the essence of primordial beast .

Xiao Ninger saw visions , visions of a strong woman whose face is severely disfigured. Seeing it , she actually didn't feel pity ...no...she felt ... anger , incredible anger at her own fate .

Xiao Ninger : Wait? my fate ?

She lost the connection to the visions the moment she thought out loud.

Xiao Ninger couldn't understand why she felt anger when she saw those ...visions instead of pity . She somehow felt like they are not just visions but.. something precious to her.

She didn't think much of it at the moment , she thought she's just hallucinating. Feeling stronger than before she continued the walk , she still needs to find her brother.

Back to Xiao Tian.

Tian opened his eyes wide as he got a new ability from devouring the blood.

Xiao Tian : Holy crap! I can stop time !!!

Tian gained this ability as his bloodline got strengthened significantly as a bonus. He can stop time inside a certain radius depending on his personal strength but once the Time domain is activated , he can stay there for centuries yet not a single second passes in reality.

The only drawback is he can activate it only once a day .

Xiao Tian : It got an annoying drawback but shit! I can now control time ! I can do a lot with this ability! I'll name this ability 'Time domain' short and sweet. For now , my radius is just 10 meters but it is fine , I can use it as final trump card in battles but the sheer amount of things I can do normally !

Tian ventured happily around the palace , he didn't care about the rest of the treasures , they are just summoning rocks and they demand ridiculous sacrifice just to summon them . As for the warning, he erased it before absorbing the pages. He don't want others to comprehend the words , there's a chance that some language in another world might be English and if they are somehow here ...he don't want to deal with the consequences. As for the unknown entity , he can't do anything about him now. So, he just kept it in back of his head.

As he's Venturing, he found a traces of his soul force. Knowing , Ning'er is near by . He activated his overdrive mode boosting his senses to inhumane levels , a 3D model of entire structure including the scents and sound appears in his mind.

He found Ning'er and directly Teleported behind her , Ning'er sensing someone's stare which flared her Instincts due to her Technique got in offensive stance and once something just appeared behind her back. She used full force high kick but Ning'er never used kicks in her attacks even when practicing martial arts.

Xiao Tian easily blocked the kick and was impressed by it because it has considerable power even for a bronze rank.

Xiao Tian : That was an amazing kick, Ning'er.

Xiao Ninger: oh ! brother! I'm sorry! I thought it was something dangerous!

Xiao Tian : It's fine, I am actually impressed that you didn't hesitate to attack but that kick though, I never knew you use kicks too . I only thought you were more of a hand fighter.

Xiao Ninger: Haha , I began practicing with legs after I realised I'm limiting mysel-

Xiao Ninger paused , she never actually realized this , heck this is the first time she used a kick in her life. She's just good with fists so, she never really cared to fight with legs too.

Xiao Tian : is something wrong?

Xiao Ninger: No, it's just...I'm hallucinating things. I'm not sure but let's get out of here , I came here searching for you..

Xiao Ninger didn't think much of it , thinking may be it was just due to staying awake for few days without sleep.

Xiao Tian : oh! Then let's go , I actually found the treasure , I have everything with me.

Xiao Ninger: Really! Then let's get out now and sa-You don't want the others to know about it right?

Xiao Tian: yep, it's just gold and jewels anyway and I'm not sharing it with anyone else other than you.

Xiao Ninger: But that's not fair, the efforts of everyone will be wasted!

Xiao Tian : Geez , I only have items from main vault. There are many small vaults here and I'm sure , they already find something.

Tian is not wrong , there are other vaults but mostly what they contain are just junk with the exception of jewels from his perspective . He made sure to sweep all the jewels in this city before searching for Ning'er. At most others will get 1/10000th of gold he pillaged and some low grade Spiritual weapons.

This is already him being extremely Generous .

Ning'er don't like this part of her brother , as much as she loves him , he's sometimes too selfish but that is just how his situation is so, she let it slide.
