985 Knowledge.
Shi Lang led the trio behind him and they wrecked havoc in the Dao Plain. No one could stop him, the stress he felt from Dao Plain earlier had all gone away. The young man had become a legend. He had no idea that in the Immortal Realm his battle points were climbing like rocket. Tian Jian and Samsara followed in a tight second and third with Ming Yanzi in the fourth. The people admired him more than when he was roaming around the place. ... n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Hao Ren stood before a shrine with his hands tied behind his back. He frowned, this shrine belonged to humans but it did not have the same aura that came from all the other shrines. He stepped inside and found that this place had the biggest hall. This shrine was also the only human shrine that was free from all the barricading. Even the top races could not get close to the place. They spent two days checking around the shrine but they did not find anyone. The reason became apparent as soon as Shi Lang entered the place. Instead of a Tombstone, a skeleton was sitting in the center. Shi Lang raised his brow and passed the message to Tian Jian and the rest were outside. The Terran bowed to the skeleton, and the bones moved. The skeleton raised its head and asked, "So, finally someone has managed to reach this level." Shi Lang smiled and replied, "It appears to me that you did not have any hope for the human race to ever reach this level." The skeleton nodded and replied after looking at the four people, and said, "Yes, I did not have any hope. The internal conflicts of our race are annoying." Shi Lang nodded and said, "Agreed." The Terran asked, "Why are you out of your grave?" This question surprised everyone, but the skeleton said, "That is because nobody was here to dig a hole for me and I was tired to do it myself." Shi Lang asked, "Why were you tired? You are a Sage level expert, no?" The skeleton nodded and replied, "I was a Sage level expert. I was tired from digging graves for all the others." Shi Lang raised his head, and this thing caught his interest. He asked, "Go, on. Why did that happen?" The skeleton replied, "It was because we tried to meddle in the business of the Realm King." Shi Lang asked, "What do you mean, a Realm King?" The skeleton sighed and said, "Above Dao Sovereigns are the sages, but two levels above the sages are the Realm Kings. I found this by chance. The Dao Plain was a place that was used to climb to the higher tier of the Cultivation Realm. Another layer of the immortal world that exists above the Immortal Realm where Dao realm experts are as many as the grains of sands." Shi Lang was surprised at first but then after thinking he said, "What you said makes sense. If ten thousand dimensions can exist then having a higher plane is also possible. So, how do we get there?" The skeleton shook his head and said, "I have the knowledge that is needed to reach the Dao Sage realm. While that is minimal requirement that is needed to ascend to the next realm, it is also something that can make people boastful and lead to destruction." Shi Lang nodded and said, "I assume you can share that knowledge with us?" The skeleton nodded and said, "I can but if you or any of the descendants of human race ascend to that realm, you will have to start from scratch. Do you understand?" Shi Lang nodded and asked, "First tell me, why did you all end up like this, what was the conflict?" The skeleton seemed to have made an inhaling noise and said, "The realm king who rules the immortal realm and the lowest realms of all ten thousand realms is an entity from the Void Eye race. The population of this race is not big, they are all just a few thousands in numbers. Yet they are all very strong, and while they are ranked hundredth in the top hundred of the ten thousand races, even the servants are Dao Sovereigns. When we ventured here to seek opportunities, the Realm King had been newly instated, and he wanted all the lower races to subdue to him. Many races objected, and they formed an alliance, like the dwarves and the Nagas, however, it did not last for long. That came over, killed all of us with one gaze. I used a secret technique of the so called evil path to hide my soul, and latter possessed my skeleton to dig holes for my fallen brothers. Would you believe me if I told you that all it took was one attack?" Shi Lang nodded and said, "I believe. I have killed many people who thought they were stronger in a blow. so you guys are not different. Look at the gap in the realms, how can you survive." The skeleton nodded, and they a blob of golden light appeared in the palm. The blob divided into four different sections and shot at the glabella of the four youngsters. Shi Lang realized that he has been imparted with the method needed to climb the realm of Dao Sovereigns.
