Chapter 2 : illusion or was it delusion ?

"Baam" the table was slammed by an old man in his 60 . He was wearing a very luxurious robe , decorated by golden patterns .

He looked ordinary but if someone just took him as an ordinary old man than they would regret for their entire life .

"That damn brat dare to run away from me , I will rip him alive " he said in anger while gritting his teeth . His name was Long Song.

Watching him , a middle age man in his 35 was scared so he hastily tried to calm Long Song " Your Highness , please calm yourself. He is still young and hot blooded which is why he don't understand the true value of your Teaching " this middle age man name was Ravi Rai , Chief of the Rai Village .

Long Song , inhaling long breath he exhaled it out before claiming his mind and saying in frustration " if that brat didn't had the most Supreme Talent in Cultivation amongst everyone even when compare it to Geniuses in Heaven , I would had not even bother to put my attention on him "

Listening to him , Ravi Rai felt awkward . This damn brat !! Why is he so stupid ? He has got such a huge opportunity but he doesn't wants to grasp this golden opportunity.

Years ago , Long Song had came to Mortal World just to look around but he found a young man in his 7 that possessed a Cultivation Talent that could even shame the Geniuses even from the Heavens .

But after he took this young man as his personal disciple , he soon regretted his decision. This ungrateful disciple of his was so stubborn that he didn't even wanted to learn basics of basic when it comes to Cultivation. It has been so long yet he still hasn't Cultivated to even lowest of lowest level in Cultivation.

As a Dao Saint Emperor , Long Song was feeling quite embarrassed just by thinking how he can't seem to Cultivate his personal disciple of his .

Inferior , Upper , Superior , World Class , Heavenly , Divine , Supreme and Pinnacle.

This are the Ranks that are used to measure someone's Cultivation Talents. And as a Dao Saint Emperor , a Pseudo Immortal that is not that far from achieving True Immortality , he could also see someone's Cultivation Talents just with his eyes yet he wasn't able to even measure the Cultivation Talent of Samundra Rai !!

"This little brat " Long Song just gritted his teeth while cursing Samundra Rai .

**

Opening my eyes , I felt a headache like my head is gonna get destroy. Looking around , I saw everything dizzy and spiny , grabbing my head tightly , I moaned in pain .

"Ah , shit like life….wait ! Am I still alive ?" if I am still alive than …haha…

**

Samundra was sure he was dead but now after knowing that he somehow survived , he was feeling more than just happy .

He unintentionally screamed out loud while raising his right arm up " fuck !! How can a handsome youth like me die in such a young age ? Haha…." But suddenly he noticed something was wrong here . He looked around and saw lines of young and beautiful maids , holding costly plates where they had different types of delicacies.

The room was huge and very noble , decorated by paintings and flowers in vase . Mats blanketing the floor , tables and desks around with sofas . It looked like a room of some noble .

"Am I somehow in Heaven ?" For a second , he thought that he was in Heaven because of such environment and beautiful maids .

But suddenly , a very beautiful and seductive voice filled with grace and nobility was heard from his behind " so you are finally awake "

Turning behind to check who it was , Samundra felt curious but the moment he turned his head back , he was stunned.

There was a beautiful young woman in her 24 , long black silky hairs reaching her back . Delicate looks and graceful charm , it seem like Celestial Aura are surrounding her . Her pair of refined black eyes could devour anyone like a black hole.

Her slender and snow white figure , sultry waist and luxurious fragrant , she looked a True Enchantress. She has pair of two Heavenly Peaks that bounce a little in her every moves , wearing long black dress , she was so hot that it felt like the Queen of succubus has descended on the world of Mortals.

'Such a beauty ' Samundra thought in his mind but suddenly , it was only for an instant but sure enough he saw someone else in her .

The long and silky black hairs that reached her waist was now a fiery red hairs , those refined black eyes were now crimson . Her graceful and noble looks was now ferocious and tyrannical as if she was the most barbaric woman in the world . Other than that everything were same as before while he felt like he was a bee that was looking at her with complicated emotions.

He felt like he was a bee while she was a princess of some powerful dynasty but it was just an instant.

While he was in shock , he heard the noble lady ask him " hey , are you here ? Hey " only than did he regained his sense and hurriedly said " ah ! Yes , I am here ….but who are you all ? "

the noble lady , in a graceful manner walked to him and said sweetly " my name is Di Long Yin , second young lady of Di family in Celestial County. May I know who you are ?"

Samundra Rai gulped his saliva while looking at her seductive body . He replied " me…i am Samundra Rai , by chance , are you the one to save me ?"

He was sure he was dead but he was also sure that if someone were to save his life than it makes logical that he has chance of living.

Did this Immortal Beauty saved his life ?

If so than …..fuck !!

No , no , how can it be ?

But not only was Samundra feeling panicked but even maids and Lady Di were panicking right now.

Rai Tribe came from the Tribe of EarthenEye Clan , EarthenEye Clan used to follow 5 Laws and they were Loyal , Brave , Power , Calm and Belief . The Progenitor of the Rai Clan was part of EarthenEye Clan and he also believed those laws created by EarthenEye Clan .

Let's not talk about the 4 Laws and let's talk about Loyal Law , Loyal , it is symbol of remaining always true to someone. If someone gave you one Gold Coin when you are in need , and you happens to be from Rai Tribe than you need to return the favour by Hundreds of Thousands of times - in short , forever. The motto of Loyal Law means , don't forget who helped you in your worst time ?

And this Law is known to everyone in the world , if Samundra tried to go against this Law than he will be punished by the Progenitor of Rai Tribe . Progenitor of Rai is rumoured to have ascended as something beyond Mortal's capabilities.

Di Long Yin hesitated but decided to ask " Did…did you really said that your surname is Rai ? One of the Five Tribe that came from EarthenEye Clan " she was feeling very complicated since she knew about Rai Tribe's Golden Law that can't be defied by anyone

Samundra wanted to deny it but fear kept running in his vein , it was as if he lied to her and tried to run away from responsibility than he will have to face a Tribulation !!

Responsibility of repaying the favour that she did for him by saving his useless life .

He hesitated and hesitated before accepting the fate " yes , I said that my surname is ….

Rai " after hearing his conformation , Lady Long too was feeling very hard to accept the fate . All of people , why did she saved a person from Rai Tribe ?

She wanted to tell him ' let's forget that we had every met before ' but she didn't know how she should tell him ?

***

"Even though , I don't need to do anything in return for saving my life , I still ended as a Librarian in Library " Samundra was feeling glad that he didn't had to do anything for Di Long Yin even after she saved his life before and instead she gave him a job with a fixed salary of 3 Gold Coins.

Sitting on a chair while relaxing his both foots at the desk , he watched the empty room while feeling bore. He was the Librarian of the lowest floor where only Warriors would come to read some Arts and Techniques but since they are normally busy in learning in classroom from teachers , they don't have to visit the Library and only needs to visit Library when they advances from Warrior Realm to Higher Realms . So normally , Warrior Class is empty in Library.

"Sigh*" sighing in both relief and disappointment , Samundra couldn't help but feel very bore so he decided to just lay his head on the table while nestling his arms around his head .

He said lazily " fuck !! When will I be able to return back in my village ? " it's not that there are friends or families waiting for him back in his village but there is an old man waiting for him . This old man happens to be someone very strict , if he didn't return soon than Samundra was sure that this old man would peel his skin , alive .

He rolled his head left and right on the wooden table but couldn't entertain himself but just for once his eyes landed on the bookshelves placed inside the Library.

"Should I just pass my time by reading some books ?" He asked himself while feeling lazy . He has never liked to read Cultivation Books but right now he was so lazy that he didn't even cared about the way he could pass the time .

Standing up from his seat , he walked slowly toward the bookshelves and saw some signboards around.

[ Warrior Rank ; Low Grade ]

[ Warrior Rank ; Middle Grade ]

[ Warrior Rank ; High Grade ]

"Low , Mid , High ?" He didn't care about the Grades and picked one book from [ Warrior Rank ; Low Grade ] , the book was made of papers while on it's cover was written few words [ Fire Palm ].

" a [ Warrior Rank ; Low Grade ] Fire Element Art that could help you circulate your Fire Element through your Cultivation Meridians on your Palm and use for offense " he just kept reading and reading. If it was an ordinary Mortals than they would need their whole life to understand the Profound Truth held in [ Fire Palm ] . But it wasn't the case for Samundra , he was born with an Innate Dao Ability known as [ Dao Seeking Truth ].

[ Dao Seeking Truth ] is not very powerful or strongest when compare to those other Innate Dao Abilities but still it is very useful since it could aid you in comprehension and understanding about Dao . Even though Samundra is only a Mortal , his Comprehension Ability of Dao is in the same level as Dao Saints by the aid of [ Dao Seeking Truth ].

"What a wasteful Technique ." He disdainfully said before placing the Book back to where it was ? He couldn't help but feel disdain for this [ Flame Palm ]. His Comprehension Ability in Dao is at the same level as Dao Saints so he could clearly see countless flaws in this [ Flame Palm ] so he truly felt disdain.

He continued to pick up more and more books from the bookshelves and kept feeling disappointment . With the help of [ Dao Seeking Truth ] , he could feel Dao so he is very sensitive toward Dao .

But when he was reading all those books , he picked a book covered in wooden covers that had bamboo leaves as a pages . On the cover was written [ Wood Dao ; Wood Deity ]. This got his interest so he decided to use his precious time on this book .

He walked back to his seat since this wooden book was very fat , it at least contained 1000 pages , it's frame was covered with roots while vines were decorated on it's outer lines.

He couldn't help but flip the first page . The first thing he saw were numerous things written on the page , and on the top was [ Basic Wood Art ; Wood Qi Cultivation ]
