chapter 1 Five years of guarding the tomb, just for the present

"Disciple! Do you trust me?"
"I do!"
"Good! You will now abolish your cultivation! After my death, you will guard my tomb for five years!"
"After five years, you will be most qualified and equipped in the world! Do you dare?!"
"Disciple obeys!"
Adan Abbott revoked his cultivation in front of his master.
Santino also passed away with a smile on his face.
But this turned Adan from a proud prodigy to a joke within the sect.
Five years later today.
Adan sat cross-legged in front of his master's tomb, quietly waiting.
"Master, today marks the end of the five-year period, and the opportunity is about to come."
"After I gain the opportunity, I will definitely revive the Seventh Peak!"
The sect that Adan belonged to was called Feather Deity Sect.
It was the largest sect in the Misty Domain.
The inner sect of the sect was divided into seven peaks, and Santino was the head of the seven peaks during his lifetime.
But after his passing, Seven Peaks, which was already desolate, also completely declined.
"Are you Adan Abbott?"
Suddenly, a voice came from behind.
Adan looked back and found an old man and a young girl had appeared from nowhere.
The old man has white hair and white beard, with a somewhat immortal and Daoist demeanor.
The girl was beautiful and cold. Her eyes are as deep as ocean abyss, as black as ink soaked jade. She was tall and straight, with delicate and fair skin, as well as a heroic air in her movements.
She looked at Adan coldly, somewhat condescendingly, with a hint of arrogance.
Adan came back to his senses, nodded and said, "I am."
Seeing Adan admitting, the girl said flatly, "My name is Clara Barlow, and today I want to tell you that we are not from the same world."
Clara Barlow?
It rang a bell with Adan.
Wasn't she the newly appointed Holy Maiden of the first peak that junior Sadie had mentioned a few days ago!
The realm of cultivator was divided into: Gathering Spirit, Postnatal, Prenatal, Primordial, Enlightenment, and Grandmaster.
Clara reach the pinnacle of Gathering Spirit the age of eight, and the pinnacle of Postnatal at the age of fifteen, undoubtedly the number one prodigy of the sect!
Later, she was accepted by the sect master as his only direct disciple and became the current Holy Maiden.
While he was deep in thought, Clara also glanced at him.
With a shattered dantian and being a complete waste, he was indeed a joke as rumored.
She side-eyed him with a little more contempt and said indifferently, "I came to you today to annul the engagement."
The former genius has become the sect's joke. It's extremely stupid.
She had made such a right decision to come out of seclusion and annul the engagement.
"Annul the engagement?"
Only then did Adan remember that when he was a child, his master once told him to arrange a marriage for him.
But he didn't expect that the person chosen for him would be the current Holy Maiden.
"Of course, I know you won't agree easily. But I'm not here to negotiate today. I'm here to inform."
She took out the marriage contract and tore it into pieces in front of Adan.
"It doesn't matter whether you keep your marriage contract or not, because from now on it's just a piece of waste paper."
After saying that, she and the old man beside her were about to leave directly.
"Wait!"
Adan stopped her.
"Anything else?"
Clara still maintained a arrogant attitude.
Adan did not answer immediately, but opened a box next to the Master's tombstone.
He dug out a stack of marriage documents and found the one of he and Clara.
"This is the marriage contract between you and me," he said.
"What? You still want to use this as a threat?" Clara said coldly.
Adan Abbott seized the marriage contract and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, "A threat?"
Without giving Clara a chance to respond, he tore the marriage document into pieces!
"Are you literally so proud of peaking Gathering Spirit at eight years old? When I peak the Gathering Spirit, I was only six years old. If I hadn't obeyed Master's orders, you wouldn't even be worthy of carrying my shoes."
"One more thing, I already found my love. Even if you didn't come here to break off the engagement, I will break off the engagement one day in the future."
"You, are not good enough for me."
Adan said flatly.
He was once a proud man, and his pride would not vanish just because his dantian was destroyed.
Even if he dies, he will die standing up!
"You!"
Anger swept her in a moment.
She was humiliated by a loser!
But she calmed down in a minute. Why should she lose her temper with a loser.
He was just trying to retrieve some self-esteem after being humiliated by her.
"Huh, the only thing you can do is throwing those harsh words."
"Let's go!"
She didn't want to squander her energy debating with Adan any more.
Since the marriage contract was destroyed, the two parties will not have any contact in the future.
Then she and the old man left with their swords.
On the way back, Clara thought of the stack of marriage letters in Adan's hand. She thought to herself, "That loser seems to have been engaged with handful of women...but it make sense. After all, he was indeed a weirdo back then. If he didn't destroy his dantian, he literally might be stronger than me."
"But that's all gone with the wind. No matter who you are engaged with, I'm afraid these marriage are all going to be smashed."
"Wait, I remember Melissa Cooper also had an engagement with him! I must tell her to break off the engagement as soon as possible to avoid getting entangled with such a villain."
Thinking of that, she changed her direction and headed towards the Second Peak.
Adan Abbott watched them fly out of his sight, clenching his fists.
"One day I will make you regret it!"
"Adan!"
Not long after the calling, a beautiful girl showed up on the mountain.
Smile climbing up Adan's face at the sight of the girl. It was Junior martial sister Sadie Candy who came.
Five years ago, he was ridiculed and humiliated after he was reduced to useless.
Only the Junior martial sister never left her and kept visiting him throughout these five years.
The two of them had made a private appointment to stick together for the rest of their lives.
Adan said with a smile hanging on his face, "I told you to just wait for me at female master's place. I will go down the mountain for you today."
Sadie smiled sweetly and said, "I want to go down the mountain with you!"
"By the way, Adan, the five-year period expires today. Has the opportunity that Master mentioned appeared?"
Adan shook his head, "No, I'm afraid we need to wait a little longer."
Sadie looked disappointed and said, "Adan, it there any possibility that whole dantian thing was a lie of Master. If that, it's such a pity for you to sacrifice so much? Your dantian has been totally destroyed."
Adan lightly tapped Sadie's head and said, "Don't talk nonsense like that, Master will never lie to me."
For the past five years, he has been stuck with the belief that Master would never lie to him.
He was adopted by Master. Without Master, he can't imagine who and where he will be right now.
Master treated him like his own son. There was no reason for lying to him?
Sadie was not satisfied with the answer. She asked out of curiosity, "Adan, has your Heavenly Realm Bone taken shape? If so, it is possible to restore the dantian."
The Heavenly Realm Bone, the representative of genius, was unique among ten thousand.
It was the supreme divine bone that all cultivator dream of.
Adan smiled slightly. Last time the Heavenly Realm Bone formed, it provoked extraordinary phenomena between heaven and earth.
Fortunately , Master noticed in time and suppressed the unusual phenomenon. Otherwise, the world would have been shaken !
No one knows about this except for Master, female master, Junior martial sister and him.
He didn't mean to conceal. He nodded and said, "It took shape last night."
"Already formed?!"
Sadie cried out rapturously. However, the very next second, her ecstatic smile was replaced by malicious expression.
She said ferociously, "Then I don't have to continue acting."
Bang!
She hit Adan in the chest with a palm!
Adan was caught off guard and was slapped away by her unexpected attack! He spurted several mouthfuls of blood and fell to the ground!
"Hahaha!"
Before Adan could recover from the pain, a burst of wild laughter rang out.
A young man came from a distance, with his eyes full of scorn.
"Trash, Sadie had companied you for whole five years. Do you really think she had fell in love with you? She was just waiting for your Heavenly Realm bone to take shape."
Hearing this, Adan felt like he was struck by sudden thunders. He even forgot about the pain in his body and looked at Sadie in disbelief!
"Sadie! Tell me! Is he telling the truth?"
He roared, praying that Sadie would deny.
However, the usually innocent junior Junior martial sister was gone at this moment.
She walked up to the young man, took him by his arm, and pressed her lips on his face.
"If it weren't for the Heavenly Realm Bone, who would waste time with a loser?"
"Do you know who this is? The genius of the inner sect of the Second Peak! Senior Brother Tripp Evert, who practiced cultivation at the age of six and reach the peak of Gathering Spirit at the age of fifteen. Now he is at the Sixfold Postnatal Realm! He is way more stronger than a waste like you."
Tripp Evert laughs even louder, stroking Sadie's cheek gently.
He teased, "Trash, don't you know, your Junior martial sister has slept with me a long time ago. We have done it several times on this mountain top! Hahaha!"
"You're so bad. You tell this loser everything." Sadie gave Tripp Evert a flirtatious glance.
"I can't stop laughing every time I see you act like a man deep in love. You are exactly what the rumors say. Not only a joke, but also a fool!"
"Why! Why are you doing this to me!"
Adan's veins popped out! He couldn't stand them humiliating him anymore! He roared and rushed towards the two of them!
But how could he, a useless person with no cultivation, be their opponent.
Tripp Evert stamped on him and sneered, "Where did you get the courage from to fight with me, you loser!"
He stepped harder. Adan gritted his teeth from beginning to end, suppressing his scream and shame.
"Wow, you're quite stubborn. When it comes to removing your bones, I wish you can continue to be stubborn."
He laughed evilly! The dagger stabbed hard into Adan's flesh and peel off his skin layer by layer!
Severe pain spread throughout Adan's body!
Even though, he remained silent, his bloody eyes staring fiercely at the two of them!
Finally he couldn't bear it anymore because he had lost too much blood. He passed out completely.
Tripp Evert quickly finished taking the Heavenly Realm Bone, still dissatisfied.
Because Adan didn't make any sound throughout his brutal torture.
After admiring Adan with his skin peeled and his flesh grazed, he kicked him aside.
He scolded, "Such a lose! Still think you are a genius?"
"Oh, senior brother, be careful or he will stain your feet."
Sadie glanced at Adan who had already expired. She said with disgust in her voice, "Better leave here to avoid bad luck."
"OK."
Finish confirming that Adan was dead, Tripp Evert left there with Sadie hand in hand.
However, not long after they left, a black shining light came out from Santino's tomb and entered Adan's body.
The next moment, Adan was wrapped in black light all over his body. His injuries recovered at a speed visible to naked eyes.
At the same time, a long sigh sounded.
"Oh, disciple, you are suffered."
"This is the last opportunity I can give you. I believe you will definitely become the greatest on this continent!"
"Divine Demon Heaven Tower, open!"
