Divine God Against The Heavens

"Don't be discouraged!" The old man's voice once again rang out in the room. He said, "Since you are already here and you are also the direct descendant of my Xiao Family, I will give you an opportunity. With this, not only will you be able to go to the Upper Realm and meet your mother, but you will also become very powerful, powerful enough to shake the entire Upper Realm!"

"Really?" Listening to him, Su Xue Er immediately became excited.

That old man nodded his head and said, "Really! But, I have one condition. If you vow to agree to my condition, I will grant you that opportunity!"

"What condition?" Su Xue Er immediately became cautious. If the old man's condition were to out of her reach, she will definitely not accept it.

That old man let out a sigh as he said, "I will first tell you my story!"

"My name is Xiao Ziliang. I am the founder of the Xiao Family, and also your ancestor!"

The old man stopped after saying this and looked at Su Xue Er who was left dumbfounded when she heard that the old man was her ancestor and the founder of the Xiao Family.

Didn't it mean that he is also from the Upper Realm?

Ye Xiao's interest was also piqued. It was the first time when he was hearing about a family of the Upper Realm. He sat down comfortably on the ground and started to listen to what the old man was about to tell.

That old man looked at Ye Xiao who sat down comfortably on the ground. Although Ye Xiao was unable to see the old man's face as it was too blurry, he was still able to sense that the old man was looking at him.

He immediately became alert seeing which the old man said, "Young man, your senses are quite sharp. You are at the Fifth Stage of the Martial Ancestor Realm at such a young age. You can be considered a genius even at the Upper Realm!"

Su Xue Er was flabbergasted to hear the old man saying Ye Xiao is at the Fifth Stage of the Martial Ancestor Realm. Before when Ye Xiao told her that he was a Martial Ancestor realm martial artist, she thought that he must have just advanced to the Martial Ancestor Realm but the truth left her deep in shock.

Ye Xiao scratched his head embarrassingly and said, "Senior, you are overpraising me!"

"A shy young man, heh!" The old man smiled then looked at Su Xue Er and said, "I was an orphan. I don't know anything about my parents but I had a rare bloodline. This bloodline was very thin but it was still able to help me become an Immortal Lord. When I become an Immortal Lord, I began to search for ways to strengthen my bloodline. It took my more than a thousand years to finally come in front of an opportunity that could help me strengthen my bloodline!"

​ "That thing was a miraculous treasure. But I was not the only one who was there at that time. There was another man beside me. He was my good brother that I made after going thick to thin with him. We went through many life and death situations together so I trusted him the most!

"Who would have known, to get that treasure, he would sneak attack me. Because of his sneak attack, I was heavily injured but those injuries were not enough to take my life. I retaliated against him and after a fierce fight, I finally won."

"At that time, I made a huge mistake that I should not have. I spared his life in an account of being good brothers with him for thousands of years."

"After I got the treasure, my bloodline become stronger and stronger, and because of my bloodline becoming stronger and stronger, my cultivation became smoother and my strength started to increase. After that, I married three women and established the Xiao Family."

Saying till here, the old man again stopped, looked at both Ye Xiao and Su Xue Er who were listening to him with interest.

Seeing the look in their eyes which was filled with curiosity and interest, the old man did not know he should laugh or cry. Here, he was telling his sad past but these two brats were listening to it as though they were hearing an interesting story.

He sighed and once again started to say, "To become an immortal, one have to evolve their dantian into a world. That world is known as the Internal World. As one's strength increases, one's world also continues to evolve and after becoming an Immortal Emperor, life starts to take forms inside the Internal World. For those lives, the owner of that Internal World is God!"

"After tens of thousands of years of bitter cultivation, I finally became an Immortal Emperor and my Internal World started to give birth to lives. I used my bloodline as the foundation of my Internal World when I was becoming an Immortal. After my Internal World started to give birth to lives, I decided to give my world a name. So I gave it a name, The Holy Beast Continent!"

Shua!

The moment he said this, as though current ran through the veins of Su Xue Er and Ye Xiao. Both of them were astonished beyond limit as they looked at the old man with a shocked gaze.

Their mouth was wide opened. It was as though they wanted to say something but words were not coming out from their tongues.

Seeing their reaction, the old man nodded his head in satisfaction and said, "Yes, your current thoughts are absolutely true. This Holy Beast Continent where you are living in used to be my Internal World!"

"I had the bloodline of the four Holy Beasts known as The Azure Dragon, The White Tiger, The Vermillion Bird, and The Black Tortoise. The foundation of the Holy Beast Continent is also these four beasts."

"I continue to cultivate and after thousands of years, my cultivation reached the Late Stage of the Immortal Emperor! My bloodline was still being strengthened by the miraculous treasure I got until one day when I heard about a rumour about a treasure that could help one reach an entirely new realm of cultivation that has never been seen in the Upper Realm."

"I was already a Late Stage Immortal Emperor, how could I let go of the opportunity that could help one enter an entirely new realm of cultivation. I immediately went to the place of rumour but who would have thought that it was a trap laid by that good brother of mine whose life I spared because of our years of brotherhood. What was most infuriating was that one of my grandchildren was actually helping him."

"I wanted to kill those two on the spot but I was attacked by three Immortal Emperors. I fought with my life on the line and that fight continued for a whole month before I was able to kill all three Immortal Emperors. Although I killed the three of them, I also reached at the brink of death."

"Since I was going to die anyway, I used a secret technique to separate my Internal World from me. If an Internal World is to separate from its owner, the Internal World will become an Independent World but the man whom it was separated from will become a cripple."

"I was already at the brink of death so I did not think much as I separated my Internal World as well as my bloodline. I sealed my bloodline and hide it in a secret place of my Internal World. Then I made four keys, put them in a box made up of Mystic Tree Wood, and again hide it somewhere inside my world along with a letter."

"Finally, I wrote another letter to my wives and took my last breath. I don't know if my wives got my letter or not but since you said that your mother was here, searching for something, it means that my wives must have gotten my letter."

"I write in the letter about separating my Internal World and freeing it. I also wrote about the black box and the keys that would reveal the sealed bloodline. Only a direct descendant of Xiao Family can obtain my bloodline!"

Ye Xiao and Su Xue Er who were listening to the old man, at this moment, could not explain what they were feeling. Shock, pity, sympathy, and many other emotions...

Although the old man stopped telling his story, they were still thinking about what the old man told them. They fell deep in thought.

The old man did not disturb them. He looked at Ye Xiao first, then he looked at Su Xue Er, and lastly at the light ball from which the four Holy Beasts were also looking at him.
