Ye Tian and Ma Qian both left the shore and explored deeper within the adjacent forest. They walked for quite a while but there was nothing but the forest until they found a river. There were still stains of blood on their body and clothes, so they decided to freshen up. They took off their clothes, Ye Tian was a bit pissed off that Ma Qian was so close to him while naked. He was already in a bad mood from the endless walk, and had an idea! Water from the river started gathering around him and formed a little tornado below his feet. Suddenly the tornado below his feet lifted Ye Tian high up in the sky!
When Ma Qian saw this, he thought Ye Tian had a very rare ability controlling nature elements of water. He also seems to recall Ye Tian could control fire. A True genius! He also couldn’t detect Ye Tian’s cultivation. Meanwhile Ye Tian was lifted high up in the sky, he was finally able to see a small city north of where they are. He controlled the tornado to carry him below.
Ma Qian was looking at the sky, but suddenly the only thing he could see were two shapes rapidly approaching him and is getting bigger. It was round and wrinkly as it got closer and bigger. When Ma Qian finally realized what it was, he was horrified. Just at this time, Ye Tian landed in front of him and saw his awkward face, but he didn’t think any further and continued to clean himself.
Ma Qian was still frozen for a while until he came back to reality. He quickly clean himself and get a new set of blue grey robes. “Why the fu$k did I have to see his bal…,” Ma Qian whispered to himself and almost threw up. He didn’t want to think about this any further but the flashbacks kept coming to him again and again. Ye Tian was still taking his time cleaning himself up and did not finish until a while later. Ye Tian wore a new set of blue robe.
“I found a small city nearby. We’ll reach the place in two hours. Let’s go,” Ye Tian said. Along the way the met a few wild beast. Some were more powerful than Ma Qian, but Ye Tian was able to handle them. The ones they have killed, they took out all the monster cores hidden inside their forehead. The monster cores could be used to progress their cultivation. The stronger the monsters are, the more benefits they will provide for cultivators. By the time they got out of the forest, they have killed 4 supreme dao monsters, and 6 great dao monsters. Ye Tian was thinking of giving one of the supreme dao cores to Ma Qian, so that he can become stronger faster. Ma Qian would be a bigger help in future battles to come. However, after thinking it over, he whispered, “Fu$k that.” Ye Tian decided not to give one to Ma Qian. He also needed to become stronger…..the faster the better. This is a new journey and a second chance at life!
Before they departed, Ma Qian took out a huge turtle beast that he was able to tame a while ago. “Let’s ride this to the city” Ma Qian said. Ye Tian nodded.
As they rode with the turtle beast, Ye Tian recalled about what had happened last night when he entered another dimension.
“My name is Tian Ren. What is your name young man?” the old man asked.
“Ye Tian. Elder, what is this place?” Ye Tian countered.
“This place? It’s a special kind of dimension that only I can enter and now it seems you are the second one. How did you get in?”
“I’m not too sure…..,” Ye Tian murmured.

“Perhaps did someone gave you the a little pearl?” Tian Ren asked.
“….Yes, my father did….is this why I can enter this dimension?” Ye Tian replied.
Tian Ren nodded and asked, “If your father put that pearl inside you, then that would mean something happened with the Ye clan?”
Ye Tian kept quiet. Only he knew what had happened. He couldn’t trust this old man yet.
Tian Ren sighed and strongly said, “Young Ye, the pearl that you have, you must keep it safe at all cost. The Ye clan have been protecting this pearl for a very long time. Longer than some of the empires that have existed today. If someone tries to use it for selfish reasons, the world will be in chaos.”
Ye Tian still kept quiet and was thinking on how this old man knew about the Ye clan. It seems this old man knew about this pearl more than himself. Ye Tian finally asked, “how do you know if this pearl can create chaos?”
“Hehehe, I’m like the spirit of the pearl. I’ve seen many have used it for good and bad. I’ve seen civilizations wiped out and some flourished. This pearl was not meant for people to build civilizations, so it was finally given to someone who could protect this heavenly treasure from any further abuse,” Tian Ren replied.
“But….I’m still too weak….there is no way I can protect it once a powerful cultivator knows about this pearl,” Ye Tian gloomily said.
“Hahaha, don’t worry. This pearl is integrated with your heart. If you call upon it, a heavenly divine beast will come out and help you. At the least, it will help you escape for sure,” Tian Ren confidently said.
“How do I call upon it?” Ye Tian asked.
Tian Ren got up and walk towards him. He lifts his finger and gently touches Ye Tian’s forehead. Ye Tian’s body shakes a bit but nothing harmful. This was a sacred method to transfer knowledge unto another. A divine technique that no one knew except Tian Ren. Ye Tian opens his eyes with satisfaction, but also asked, “Can you teach me how to use this transfer technique?”
Tian Ren thought a bit and approved it. His face slowly gets closer to Ye Tian to the point of almost being kissed! Ye Tian rolls backward, and asked, “What are you doing?” Ye Tian felt a tingling chill when his face got close to Tian Ren.
“Relax, I can’t transfer the knowledge using the previous technique. If you want to know how, your forehead needs to touch with mine!” Tian Ren grudgingly replied. Who the hell does this kid think I am. I’m no pervert, little brat!
“..Fi..Fine,” Ye Tian agreed. Tian Ren moves forward and touches Ye Tian’s forehead with his. Meanwhile, Ye Tian felt disgusted. Good thing no one else is seeing this.
As their forehead touches, a glow appears with strings of light going inside Ye Tian’s head. It took about several breaths, which was long enough for Ye Tian to smell the old man’s heavy breath. As soon as it was over, Ye Tian moved back quickly and started hugging himself a bit. He felt like he had been abused. Tian Ren saw this and was a bit angry, but he sympathized with Ye Tian. After all, Ye Tian is now the sole protector of the pearl.
“Ye Tian, come visit me when you have problems. Maybe I can help you,” Tian Ren said, then walked back to his original position. While he turned around, his face was also blushing. He has lived for a very long time since ancient times, and he has never been so close to another except his wife. Ye Tian and Tian Ren couldn’t looked at each other but the feeling they had felt a bit like adultery!
With the inherited knowledge, Ye Tian left the dimension and opened his eyes. He could see they’re now within a closing distance from the city. Ma Qian said, “We should walk from here. This turtle is too big to go inside the city.”
Ye Tian nodded. From the distance, they could see the city was situated on top of a huge hill surrounded by rivers. It almost seems the city was built to become a fortress ready for war.
What will happen inside the city?
