Chapter 4. Talent

Zhou Ye, couldn't see it but Tang Xuan saw it as simply as he could, the young girl had an Inborn Body! It was actually also attributed to both Ice and Fire meaning it was a Dual Inborn Body. 

Whilst the World did have five elements as its core it also had other elements serving as the foundation or pillars of the Core such as Ice and water. 

Tang Xuan when exerting his vision before being obstructed by the throne sitting man was able to see just for a few seconds the entire Continent and even if it was a mere second, Tang Xuan had virtually perfect memory and could recall faces.

What he saw wasn't actually the girl but rather the boy next to her whom had Innate Body for Lightning which would be a perfect conductor or catalyst for Celestial Origin. 

Tang Xuan was now slightly overtaken by greed and actually attempted to exert his vision once more, this time a man on a throne coughed out even more blood than before than threw a Spear to the sky to go to Tang Xuan and to protect himself. 

Tang Xuan saw the Spear coming towards him and attempted to stop it but he was quite weakened and just managed to do so with it stopping in mid air. 

His body moved towards the two children then but all of sudden, invisible chains came from the Spear, surprisingly it was an Immortal Artifact!

Tang Xuan was truly surprised, a Third Transition who could move at the speeds of the Sixth Transition and an Inborn Talent for Lightning and even a Dual Aspect and Immortal Artefacts. 

Such things in an old Mortal World should not have existed unless it was the home of an Immortal that lived and died. 

Tang Xuan resisted the spear, but what came falling down was the World suppressing powers which pushed him down, but no one could notice not even Zhou Ye.

Tang Xuan then said "It appears I'm getting a bit greedy, hahaha" he then looked to Yuan Li and said, "Here take this and show it your council". 

What he gave was a tiny bit of his essence in the form of an hourglass and it would project himself but it wouldn't have a single bit of power and only could be used as a messenger or the alike. 

When it was turnt upside down, a spirit avatar of Tang Xuan would appear and when the sand all fell down then Tang Xuan would disappear.

Yuan Li was just about to leave before he heard a voice "Wait.... Take these two kids with you... have them be neighbours of the Zhou Family Household of Zhou Shan and live with them for a bit in disguise with the surname Ye until I call for you again...." 

Yuan Li was surprised at how specific Tang Xuan was about especially with the name of the person and why the two siblings would now have the same surname as the person in front of him, he merely shrugged and listened.

Yuan Li then nodded and disappeared with the two children and within mere moments arrived in side a Council room, Yuan Li looked at the hourglass and flipped it before entering the room. 

All of a sudden a bright light enveloped the entire outer room and a figure entered the Council Room with an old man with the name of Zhenren Ling and said "It appears we have an distinguished guest?" 

The old man actually sensed Yuan Li the moment he entered the Council room and he himself was at the Sixth Transition and was amongst the most powerful of the Zhenren Empire. 

Other old men then said "What do you mean Ancestor Ling?" "Who is it?". Zhenren Ling then replied "Look who Yuan Li, the person we were just talking about brought with him". 

Tang Xuan was somewhat feeling weak as he was suppressed by the natural forces of the World and would continue to do so until he withdrew or became stronger.

If he was at full strength then the suppressing force could be ignored and if he was able to use Celestial Origin even not at full strength then the World wouldn't even suppress him.

But how weakened was he right now? It was far to much, all he could do as simply leave a simple projection and then he withdrew all the aura and said "We're, I have to go to "sleep" for a while.... Once you reach Perfect Soul Stage you'll be able to awake me but, until then goodbye....."

Zhou Ye was quite confused but he then was suddenly influxed with some information "Ye'er, if you wish to ascend higher in the Celestial Origin method then simply draw upon the essence of the Heavens and you will arise in time, You may have also noticed I didn't let you see all my memories but only the pivitol parts of my life (excluding family) and so when the time comes when you have an experience simmilar to my one it will be unlocked.

Zhou Ye then looked at Small Azure and said "Alright let's go home!" It was far to much to take in, he simply decided to just go home and recollect his thoughts slowly. 

Meanwhile, at the Council Room, Tang Xuan's projection explained a few things about what has transpired before disappearing with the wind.

At that moment all the Elders within the Council were shocked and they called for a Closed Council Session which meant that not even the Emperor of the Zhenren Empire could interrupt them.

As Zhou Ye was returning home he thought about the "Perfect Soul Stage", whilst he didn't actually see all of Tang Xuan's memories he received what he needed.

He knew what "Perfect Soul Stage" represented, it was the ability of not fightning Transition stage Enlightenment Cultivators at the Soul Realm but fighting True Enlightened Cultivators at the Soul Stage. 

If Yuan Li from earlier practiced a Heaven Defying Cultivation Art or a Divine Cultivation Method it wouldn't be strange for him to have the speed of a Sixth Transition at the third Transition.

But he clearly didn't which was what surprised Tang Xuan, fortunately however for Zhou Ye was that Celestial Origin allowed one to enter the "Perfect Soul Stage". 

Those who practised Celestial Origin, after breaking through "Perfect Soul Stage" they wouldn't enter Transition or Enlightenment but rather what was called "Five Steps to Celestiality". 

In the distance whilst Zhou Ye was travelling back to his home and recollecting thoughts, Yuan Li was talking to the two siblings and said to them "Alright from today onwards your new names will be Ye Yin and Ye Cheng" he said this as he looked to the older girl and younger boy (respectively).

"As for your past lives of being a member of the Rusof Family it can't even begin to compare to your current status...." The two siblings were suprised and didn't know what was happening, the younger boy, Ye Cheng looked to his elder sister and said "Elder Sister, who is this creepy old man??". 

Ye Yin, wasn't just older than her brother she was several times more mature and when she was half the age of her brother she was still more mature and knowledgeable. 

She didn't dare to call the man whom took her and her brother an old man, after all she saw how the old man took her and her brother within a second and appeared in another place thousands of metres away.

How did she know that it was thousands of metres away? It was the Dreaded Earth Lands and she had heard rumors of such a place and it was a few thousand metres at minimum and even a few dozen kilometres at most from her city which made the city somewhat victim to frequent monster attacks. 

Fortunately their, leader was Three Thirds in to Soul but died in peaceful cultivation and unfortunately an rebel who was her grandfather's adopted son had decided to kill her father and seize the City for himself.

They were easily a top First Class City and were close to becoming a Ruler City if her Grandfather broke through, but now the City would only be a First Class City at best and barely and Second Class at least.

This was mainly because of her Grandfather being the Protector of the City and protecting it from any beasts coming from the Dreaded Earth Lands.

Concerning the Dreaded Earth Lands within a specific area was a fluctuation of Qi, this meant someone was making a breakthrough.

The person making it wore a bloody robe and had bloodshot eyes this was none other than the man whom killed the crow, however he wasn't looking as crazy as before.

He was completely calm and didn't have a worry at all, he was being chased as he stole a Qi withdrawing treasure which allowed for him to withdraw his Qi and hide his presence from even people his Yuan Li. 

He was feeling a breakthrough coming upon him and he smiled as fluctuation of Qi instantly disappeared, that moment he disappeared from where he was and appeared a few moments later in front of a dark and tall building with a violet tower.

That was the a branch headquarters of the Infernal Dusk Empire Sect which in turn was a branch from the Mythical First Continent, the bloodshot robed man looked to the building and said to himself

"Yuan Li, I Liu Yan will in time surpass you! Just wait....." The next moment he walked in to the building and his figure disappeared.

As this was happening, Zhou Ye was returning back to his home with small azure on his shoulder and had redrawn it's azure flames but it's feathers were now that of an azure colour.

It was getting a bit dark now, when Zhou Ye was at the mountain it was still morning and the time difference from then and now wasn't to big but it was that the mountain and where Zhou Ye lived was a different timezone region.

Zhou Ye, had far more endurance now as he learnt Celestial Origin, by merely existing he would receive the Qi of the Heavens which was omnipresent and all-existing in all spaces. 

Even if he slept he would gain more Qi than others of the Spirit Foundation when they were to meditate, the difference was truly big. 

As Zhou Ye was returning home it had been about just half a hour, he saw his parents talking to an middle aged man whom likely familiar with two children. 

 (Zhou Ye's speed compared to Yuan Li's is virtually snail pace which is why Yuan Li got to Zhou Ye's home first and notice the slight time skip
