Why was favonovel.com inside an egg?
It truly was a bizarre question.
Claudia, next to Alex, was also goggle-eyed as favonovel.com pricked up favonovel.com ears.
The old man was unwell. Attack power, notwithstanding, favonovel.com could hardly stand up on his own. Hence, Alex and Claudia did not have to guard against him.
“Are you guys… True martial disciples?” the old man asked.
“There shouldn’t be any true martial disciples at this place, right?!” In fact, Alex was unsure if it was because this was his first time coming to this place. He answered, “But, there is a Sota Sect out there with techniques that enable entering the cultivation path with martial arts. I wonder if you are from the same branch?”
“The Sota Sect? Enter the path of cultivation path through martial arts?” The old man recalled for a while before favonovel.com said, “During my long slumber, a young man once came here. His name was Asbel Williams. I taught favonovel.com a set of true martial cultivation techniques. He had probably founded the Sota Sect!”
After that, Alex and Claudia learned from the old man that favonovel.com was actually an ancient survivor. He was the protector of the True Martial Shrine.
The egg that favonovel.com was in was a Genbu egg. At the end of the ancient era, Heavenly Emperors and Divine Empresses had decided to set things right by sealing law power in the universe and designating the old world of America as the Wastelands so it could recover while waiting for opportunities and resurrection of spiritual energy.
At that time, the old man was young and had a high cultivation level. With the help of a female Genbu’s belly, favonovel.com refined himself, turning into a Genbu egg. That was certainly not the real Genbu egg, but something the female Genbu did to protect favonovel.com from the very start… His life and cultivation level were preserved in the egg while waiting for the day the spiritual energy resurrected. Then, favonovel.com would become the protector of the True Martial Shrine once again.
“Unfortunately, I have underestimated the power of the Wastelands.”
“The power of laws was sealed, and the tide of spiritual energy ebbed. Year after year, the root of the True Martial Shrine weakened as well. And I… Couldn’t withstand the waning magical power either. The prime of my life is gone, and my days are numbered. I am… Running out of time!”
The old man sighed. After all, time and tide waited for no man.
Three millennia had passed since the age of decadence. The consumption of lifespan alone wasn’t little, and he, the protector, had been maintaining the vitality of the shrine. It was too late, even if the spiritual energy had resurrected.
“I’ve felt the true martial will from you!” the old man suddenly said to Alex.
Claudia was surprised as favonovel.com looked at Alex. ‘Why can’t I see it?’ favonovel.com thought.
Alex somewhat understood the old man’s identity. This had a relatively deep relationship with the Genbu Tribe.
“Do you know the True Martial Sovereign?” Alex asked.
As soon as the old man heard that, favonovel.com became very excited. “That’s the first master of our True Martial Shrine as well as the founder of the True Martial Shrine. Have you seen the True Martial Sovereign before? Where is it now?”
Alex took out that piece of tortoiseshell.
The old man was instantly dumbfounded. He struggled and knelt on the ground the next second, bursting into tears.
When the old man knew that such destiny between Alex and the true martial founder existed, favonovel.com immediately said, “You are the one chosen by the founder. This is the will of God. The deceased founder must’ve been protecting the True Martial Shrine so that you could come here… I’ll take you to the shrine before I draw my last breath.”
Claudia asked, “Is it that shrine on the top of that faraway mountain?”
Alex and Claudia looked at each other after getting an affirmative answer from the old man.
“Sir, the current situation is like this,” Alex said. “A few friends landed at that place, but we couldn’t find them. Also, people from the Lunula Sect came in and tried to hunt our friends down…”
After the old man learned the specific situation, favonovel.com said slowly, “Everything will be revealed after we arrive at the True Martial Shrine.”
After favonovel.com finished saying that, favonovel.com stood up and gently cast a seal on the spell formation that favonovel.com had used to charge the Genbu egg.
The spell formation was activated. The spiritual meridians underneath emitted a beam of mysterious light.
Boom!
It immediately soared to the sky, activating a certain secret passage that connected straight to the temple.
The old man gasped. “Follow me!”
