Chapter 326: The Perfect Training

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

"Now, I am about to leave for Immortal Ascension. I feel the difficulty to tame the murderous nature of demon kind, and am concerned of the enmity rising again between men and demons, making them drift away from the righteous path. I used the Origin-Returning Pearl as a pact and wish the fated one who receives it would leave this message for my descendants: always remember that life and death are all a result of karma. The Dao to Immortal Ascension lies in getting rid of the heart for killing and freeing yourselves from your original nature."

After he finished speaking, his vague figure became even thinner. Some golden light from the surroundings fell on him. He spoke again in a more ethereal voice.

"I wish to meet Great Immortal again in my lifetime, to thank her for her guidance of my kind."

In the next instant, the figure disappeared completely, and even the bright white array darkened, as if the lights had never been there.

Lily casually summoned a fireball which lit up the room again. Her expression was confused.

"The figure just now... what did he mean?" She couldn't understand everything he said, but could vaguely figure out that this place once belonged to the demons. When the owner went for Immortal Ascension, the place was left behind.

Yi Qing shook his head. He wasn't too sure as well. What the figure said was probably something from very long ago. He was a bit surprised that there was once a time when humans and demons lived in harmony. By right, demons liked eating humans best, and their nature was hard to tame. Cultivators were also humans once. Therefore, when the two kinds met, they always fight to death. The end was either the human gets eaten by the demon, or the demon gets killed by the human who took out their inner core afterwards. There was no other way. The only exception was that mountain-protecting demon monarch in Honesty Sect, who had to obey because of the blood pact.

"Aren't we looking for a way out?" Jing Qi suddenly reminded them, interrupting the contemplation of the other two. "Let's hurry up and find what else is in here?" A hint of nervousness showed on his face, as he started looking immediately, feeling scared that should the two continue thinking, they would ask about the Origin-Returning Pearl sooner or later. He subconsciously felt for the storage bag beside him. So this flying pearl that he saw before rushing in was actually a treasure left behind by the great! He felt a rush of excitement. So long as he got out, his cultivation was sure to improve another level. Perhaps there would even be a change for Core Formation.

The two's thoughts returned to the matter at hand, and indeed started looking all around, without continuing to think about the figure just now. Suddenly, the ground started shaking violently, and rumbling sounds of something falling were heard. There were even clay and bricks collapsing from the ceiling.

"This place is collapsing, get out!" Yi Qing reminded them, as he flew up on his sword.

The other two followed suit on their swords. The surroundings were collapsing even faster. They were almost hit many times, before they finally flew out. Looking back, they realized that the whole mansion relic had already become ruins, and the ground continued to shake.

"Look, something is rising from underground." Lily cried out in surprise, pointing to the middle of the ruins.

The two looked in the direction. Indeed, something was breaking out and slowly rising in the middle of the ruins. In a short while, the bricks around it fell and a giant stone statue rose from the middle.
