By following Long Haoran outside, Asura Ryuu and Long Xingyue followed behind him for some time through the forest until they arrived at the location which seemed slightly different than the normal forest, but looked the same as the surroundings.

Ryuu didn't know why he felt the different atmosphere at that part of the forest, it was as if there was a monster lying deep beneath the earth and releasing its ferocious aura, therefore, making the air heavy and sticky. It was hard to breathe, much less concentrate on meditation. Ryuu held back the urge to ask about this place because he knew that sooner or later, Long Haoran would tell them about it.

And truthfully, Long Haoran's steps came to an end and he turned around, looked at their eyes and placed a hand on each of their shoulders. To Ryuu this was somewhat familiar, as he saw many such scenes in his previous world: "Isn't this the 'I'm sorry for everything' kind of expression, hehe, let me see what he has in the bag for us."

Long Xingyue: "Umm, father? What's wrong?"

Long Haoran: "Hm? Nothing, why are you asking me that?"

Long Xingyue: "Then why are you putting your palms on our shoulders?"

Long Haoran: "..."

"Because of pity.", he said after which, he raised the hand and snapped his fingers while inserting a bit of Spirit Energy in them. The snapping sound reverberated and echoed even though there were only trees and no mountains around them, but exactly then the earth began shaking and cracking in various places and soon, the mountains popped out around them completely enclosing the entire area of the forest they were at. The distance between the mountains was around ten kilometers in a straight line, but that wasn't the scary part - the mountains were unnatural because the inner side facing them was steep at ninety degrees angle while the other was of the usual mountain.

To explain it more precisely, it looked as if there was one big mountain there and something cylindrical with a diameter of ten kilometers was slammed in the middle of it, flattening the central part while the outer part remained the same - that's how the area looked like. The height of the wall could be said to be unsurmountable for Ryuu and Xingyue with their current strength because it was around three kilometers tall.

Long Haoran: "Your training begins here, what you have to do is to cross the mountains and return to our home, find your way back and survive. Be careful though, there are a lot of beasts trapped in here but they can also serve as food if you can hunt them. There are also some nutritious fruits and plants, but be careful because there are some who are alive as well as some with poison."


Asura Ryuu: "..."

Long Xingyue: "..."

Both of the kids looked at each other in confusion, visibly thinking: "Is that all?"

Long Haoran: "Hehe, of course, this isn't all because you will be training to be monsters so your training regime should be..."

Long Haoran cut off his own sentence thereby raising both of the hands in front of himself and clapping once.

*Clap*

*Crack!*

*Krrr-Kacha*

The ground broke apart again and countless natural-looking environments manifested in the entire inner area of the enclosed space. There were several areas that were split in octagonal shape and each had different properties.

There was an area with a humongous waterfall as big as a kilometer while near him were several smaller waterfalls to the sides, the lowest one being a hundred meters. There were ten in total each higher for a hundred meters than the previous one, all the way up to a thousand-meter high one.

The rest seven areas were strange in their own way, but they couldn't be seen by the naked eye. This wasn't a problem to Little Dragon as her Spirit Power was vastly bigger than any other being's, which is normal considering she lived for a million years. Even if she slept through 90% of her life, her Spirit Power would still evolve and increase with time. If an average human lives a hundred years on this planet, then she lived the life of 10.000 consecutive human lives.

Ryuu extended his Spirit Power the furthest he could, but even with his thousand points, he couldn't cover the entire inner area. He only penetrated about 20% inside the two neighboring environments until his Spiritual Sense vanished inside them, which meant that the atmosphere and the space in them were completely different than in the current one.

Long Haoran: "I designed this area for myself when I was training, which covers almost every area you can train in. The instructions can be found in the crystal pearls which were scattered everywhere across the areas, but there is only one pearl in each of them. When you clear one area, the pearl will lit up and I would be able to track your progress constantly because there is an array here, hidden underneath which can transfer all the information about this place to my brain when I use it, so tell me what does that mean, you two."

Asura Ryuu: "No slacking off, you have to pass it all."

Long Xingyue: "..."

Long Haoran glanced at his daughter with her head lowered and still couldn't stop brooding over the fact that she awakened the long-lost bloodline, but he didn't let it show on his face. He came two steps forward and crouched in front of the two little kids.

Long Haoran: "Dad has something to do so I have to go now so when you two finish with everything here, you can go and sign up at the academy, here is a gift for you, Xingyue. This is what your mother left behind for you."

Long Xingyue raised her head and looked at her father's eyes which were brimming with kindness and then looked at his hand in which was a crystal ring with deep blue color and vermilion red glowing runes carved in. The runes were only about a millimeter big so it could be seen that was very fine craftsmanship. When Long Xingyue put on the ring she felt a cold and refreshing feeling and her senses became sharper, her ears picked up smaller sounds and her vision became better as well.

Long Haoran noticed Ryuu looking at the ring and a troubled expression appeared on his face.

Long Haoran: "Ryuu, sorry I don't have one for you but this is something that your mother left behind. I will give you a cultivation technique that I once got from someone. He said that it was the highest rank technique, but I could never open it, try to see if you can do it."

As Long Haoran was saying that, he took out a pitch-black scroll with a big green emblem embedded in it. When Ryuu saw the emblem his eyes fiercely contracted and his green eyes began glowing. As if to respond to Ryuu's presence, the rune on a scroll lit up brightly and floated up in the air on its own accord.

Long Haoran saw the scene and he became shocked: "Will anything ever not surprise me with this boy..." *Sigh*

By that time, the scroll was already in front of Ryuu, slowly spinning and floating up-down like a drop item in the games back in Ryuu's previous life. "It had to be that kind of effect, did it?", Ryuu thought.

"Why do I get the feeling that everything which happened up until now was predetermined... Or maybe it's just me looking at all this as if it's a novel from the Earth. Well, anyway let's see what is written inside." - Ryuu thought.

Ryuu extended his hand with the intention to grasp the scroll but when his hand came only a few centimeters from it, a force emerged out of it which blasted his hand back. Ryuu felt the sharp pain in his arm and his facial muscles began twitching and wriggling.

Asura Ryuu: "As expected, it won't be easy... But I won't give up, hehehe."

Ryuu straightened up and focused while calming his breathing so much that one round of in-out breathing took up five seconds or so. His eyes were nailed to the glowing emblem which gave him a familiar feeling. "Where have I seen this thing, why does it feel familiar?"

An idea popped up in his mind: "Could it be... Little Master?"

Ryuu closed his eyes and sent his senses to his Spirit Sea. Inside, he saw Little Dragon sleeping on the surface of the water and her funny appearance caused him to smile. Her unusual beauty still left him speechless. "If her beauty is this big now, then what when we grow up... Oh boy, aren't I lucky?"

As if noticing Ryuu's malicious intentions, her green eyes slowly opened giving Ryuu chills up his spine even though it was only his Spiritual Body.

Little Dragon: "What are you doing here? Don't you have the training outside?"

Asura Ryuu: "Send your consciousness outside and you will see why I came in."

Little Dragon's eyes narrowed as if doubting that Ryuu just wanted her to go out but nevertheless she went out. As soon as her body came out of Ryuu's, Long Haoran sharply glared in her direction, but he couldn't see anything.

Little Dragon: "Oh, your father has sharp senses, alright. Wait, this is..."

She looked at the floating scroll and her Spiritual Body floated forward, but the same thing happened as with Ryuu, only this time her entire body got blown backward and a part of it even dispersed like a mist.

Ryuu returned to his body and opened his eyes, then his vision fell upon the scroll again.

Long Haoran noticed that Ryuu's breathing quickened and he forgot about the previous feeling and looked at Ryuu: "How is it, do you feel anything?"

As if he didn't hear him, Ryuu only remained to stare at the scroll, but that was only to the observers, at this point in time Ryuu was talking with Little Dragon and had no time to pay attention to anything else.

Little Dragon: "Isn't this The Origin Art? I never thought I would see it again in my life after I lost it..."

Little Dragon: "Ryuu, we have to take back this thing, it was originally mine, to begin with. Quickly release my Soul Spirit."

Asura Ryuu: "But wouldn't it scare the hell out of them if I do?"

Little Dragon: "That's not important, we have to get this and it's already reacting to my aura so we have to release it anyway, hurry."

Asura Ryu: "..."

Ryuu turned around an looked at his father and sister and after a brief period he said: "Father, how much toll on your Soul Energy did activating this array take?"

Long Haoran's pupils contracted and there was a faint movement of his brows: "This kid..."

Long Haoran: "It took about 40% of my Soul Energy, why are you asking?"

Asura Ryuu: "Take Xingyue as far from me as you can, there will be a fierce reaction when I activate this thing." Ryuu said, pointing with a finger to the scroll while looking at Xingyue and Haoran.

Long Haoran: "It's not a problem, I will guard her. You can do it without worries, after all I'm a peak Spiritist for a reason."

Ryuu still had some doubts but after consulting Little Master, they decided to do it that way, because even if the reaction is fierce, Long Haoran should have quick reflexes so he will protect Xingyue.

Ryuu and his master were talking for a bit more, and then Ryuu decided to try conquering this scroll from the past together with his master.
