After one hour...
Xia Tian absorbed the essence completely and opened his eyes slowly. His eyes shined with a profound glow and a text appeared in front of him.

"Toy Collector system... I like this name." Xia Tian nodded and muttered. He was satisfied with the name of this system. The changes must have been made by destiny but he didn't mind it.
When Xia Tian was looking around the dense trees in the forest, a sudden voice sounded in his mind.
[Master!]
Xia Tian raised an eyebrow, he recognized this child-like voice. A strange expression floated across his face.
"Seems like Destiny wants to die..." Xia Tian thought to himself if the person is what Xia Tian is expecting then today shall be the last day of Destiny in this world.
"Who are you?" He said in his mind.
An enthusiastic female voice sounded in his mind again. [I am Luo Xue, and I will be helping master as his assistant from now on.]
"Oh," Xia Tian nodded, he doesn't remember any fairy named Luo Xue. His mood was much better after hearing her name.
Yes, the child-like voice was of a fairy.
But one question was bothering Xia Tian...
He killed all the fairies in the fairy realm... So who is this Luo Xue?
The only way to get trapped in the system is by reaching the peak of immortality and dying in tribulation.
He doesn't remember any fairy facing tribulation in this world??
Let alone fairies, in this world, there is not a single person who had attempted to break through to the void realm.
Did something happen in these 1 billion years?
A fairy escaped and tried to ascend? That is plausible.
Seeing a look of contemplation on Xia Tian's face Luo Xue sighed. She had an inner feeling that handling her master is going to be troublesome. Though, she can't understand why there are so many question marks on Xia Tian's status.
Then, she tried to scan the woman nearby, the result was even more shocking.
:::::::::::::::::
Name: Nyx
Age: ???
Race: ???
Cultivation: ???
:::::::::::::::::;
[What!?] Luo Xue exclaimed in shock. Why is everything a question mark? She can't understand anything.
First, there was some random information in her mind, all she knows that she have to guide her master to the peak of immortality, and now this!?
From the information she has; the system is the most powerful thing in the world. Even the strongest immortal can't escape from its eyes. So why so many question marks??
The possibility of a void realm cultivator never aroused in Luo Xue's mind.
Else she would have long figured out that the system does not work on Void realm cultivators. She died while transcending, so the information Luo Xue has about the Void realm is close to none. She isn't even aware of the powers of the void realm cultivator.
Xia Tian decided to deal with this fairy later. If Luo Xue is someone who escaped that massacre then she would die in his hands.
[Master, I know you would have a lot of questions... You can ask them one by one. I would do everything for the master to reach the peak of the world.] Luo Xue's voice was heard again in Xia Tian's mind.
The fairy was unaware of Xia Tian's thoughts else she wouldn't dare to utter a single word.
"Shut up, woman." Xia Tian uttered plainly. He stood up and stretched his body a bit. Then he walked ahead deeper into the forest.
Luo Xue, " _ "
Xia Tian may be the only person in this world who can shut up the system itself. He decided to go into the forest, as he can sense three aura's from there.
Nyx followed beside him like his shadow.
When they were passing past the dense spirit grasses, Nyx remembered something, she looked in the direction of Xia Tian.
"Tian, Xia Ying was taken away when you were meditating."
Xia Tian halted in his tracks. "Taken away??"
"Yes, a woman from the Wei family found both Xia Ying and Xia Chen and forcefully took them away. Evelynn is with both of them." Nyx nodded and explained.
Xia Tian can't help but think something was wrong here. Evelynn doesn't need to go with them for their protection.
Xia Chen was the son of destiny, so it should be normal for him to randomly get kidnapped by a woman.
The only conclusion Xia Tian can arrive at is...
"Evelynn is avoiding me? Now that's interesting..." Xia Tian thought to himself with interest and continued walking.
Asking Nyx, he can know more about this matter. But Nyx had already disappeared, more like it is her way of telling, don't ask me.
Dragging Nyx out is not an issue. But directly meeting Evelynn is an even better option.
Evelynn should have gone to meet with Selene. Xia Tian already has seen something wrong with that servant's fate with his divine eyes. This is why Xia Tian smiled when the servant mentioned Isabelle's name.
Before long, Xia Tian had arrived near a waterfall.
The tranquil sound of water falling rushed into his ears. It was a small waterfall, enveloped by lush green trees.
A man was standing as guard a little farther away from it. Xia Tian did not even need to scan him using the system to learn something wrong about his body, just a look from his divine eyes was enough.
Ignoring the man, Xia Tian gathered strength in his legs, leaping upwards he climbed the branch of a nearby tree.
Then, like a shadow, his silhouette passed through multiple branches.
Lin Huan was unable to spot Xia Tian's shadow as he swiftly passed through him.
An old lady whose figure was floating above the clouds found something wrong.
"A beast?..." she murmured.
Her eyes were focused on Xia Tian's shadow, as her gaze peered through clouds.
She was ready to descend unfortunately her legs were frozen in the air. No matter how much she tried, it didn't bulge.
"What?"
Before she can understand anything, darkness engulfed her.
!!
The next moment, her body was devoured by the void.
This must be the fastest death of an overload realm cultivator in history.
She was Long Shen, an elder of the Long family.
She had been tasked by the patriarch of the Long family to look after the young master's future bride from the shadows.
Ye Suyin was engaged, it was known to everyone. But no one except Wei Imperial's family knew to whom she was engaged.
Inside the Long family.
*crack... *
The life jade of Long Shen broke down. The man who was sitting on the throne frowned and stood up.
*Bang...*
A fierce aura descended on the elders in the hall, forcing them to their knees.
"!!"
*Thud*
Everyone was forced to their knees.
A dragon-like shadow enveloped the whole hall, its dark red eyes were gazing at the elders like a primal beast.
The elders' back were drenched in a cold sweat. Nobody dared to utter a voice.
Patriarch was angry !! This was bad news!!
The Patriarch's name was Long You, unlike the Xia Family, the Long family lived like Imperials. There existed fierce competition among the young generation to inherit the next dragon throne.
Every ancient family has their traditions, and the Long Family lived the way of the dragon.
"Husband, calm down." a hand was wrapped around Long You shoulder. From the texture of the hand, it was clear that the hand belonged to a woman.
Her name was Shen Qing, she came from the Mystic Peak realm which is yet another mid-level realm.
She was Long You's only wife.
In the Long family, the patriarch had only a single wife, to avoid any internal conflicts.
Sensing the worried look of his wife, Long You sighed and withdrew his aura.
Once the suffocating pressure was removed, the elders were freed.
All the elders simultaneously breathed a sigh of relief. The aura of the patriarch is too fierce.
Though all of them had a cultivation of the overlord realm, but patriarch was on another level.
He had an aura of a dragon.
Long You belonged to the generation of Long Wanhui. He was 100 years bigger than Long Wanhui and also her cousin.
Long Wanhui's father was the patriarch before Long You, he was Long You's uncle.
Fortunately, Long You had a single son and he was the strongest among the young generation.
At the age of 19 his son was taken away by an immortal to the divine realm.
Eighty years have passed... His son should be returning soon.
The Long family became aware of Ye Suyin's innate talent a few years ago.
Her special eyes can distinguish between lies and truth, she was the perfect bride for their son.
Immediately upon learning about her, Long You personally made a trip to the Scared sky jade realm and fixed her engagement with her son.
"What happened husband? Why were you so angry?" Shen Qing asked about the situation from Long You.
Long You sighed and explained the situation.
After learning the situation from him, the elders had a solemn looks on their faces.
"Who dares to go against the Ancient Long family!?"
One of the elders yelled.
"Shut up Elder Bo, an overlord was killed easily. If the mother can't handle it, she would have asked for help. It only means she was killed before even she can put up a fight. We are facing an unknown enemy. We should not be careless." Another elder said.
She was Long Qiaoling, she was the younger sister of Long Wanhui.
"Cousin Qiao is right. We must not be reckless."
Long You nodded at her words.
In the end, after a long meeting, it was decided Long Qiaoling would go and thoroughly investigate this matter.
Long Shen was the mother of Long Wanhui.
So, Nyx right now just killed the maternal grandmother of Xia Tian.
Long Shen was the only one remaining from her generation in the Long family.
And now she is dead.
Generally, the old generations of the ancient families after passing their seat of patriarch will leave the family and deport to the Lost island to guard the prison.
Yes, it was not as if the ancient families had not interfered in the calamity which happened one million years ago in the sacred sky jade realm, but it what that the matter was too shameful for them to write in history.
Thousands of cultivators died at the hands of that mysterious beast.
The difference between the ancient family and the Imperial family is not of strength.
Both had peak divine overlords.
The difference was in numbers ... While the overlords were rare for the Imperial Family, the Ancient families had a whole fleet of them.
Most of the overlords are guarding the Mysterious Ice palace where the beast is confined.
Generations have passed but the beast that brought the calamity is still alive.
The strength of the beast is not too high, it is only at Earth Immortal level.
So why not kill it!?
Many past patriarchs tried asking the help of other Immortals to kill it, but no Immortals responded to their call.
After getting deeper into the matter, the ancient families realized it was the order of the Divine emperor... No Immortal is allowed to interfere with the beast in the scared sky jade realm.
The news came as a big shock to the ancient families.
There was a single communication the past patriarchs received from the divine realm concerning the mysterious beast.
It was small but the words which it carried sent a chill down everyone's spine.
'You can trap the beast, but don't try killing it. Else a calamity will follow which will engulf the world along with it..."
This was a personal letter from the Divine Emperor, nobody dared to ignore.
From then, the ancient families are keeping the beast confined in the Mysterious Ice palace.
All the old generations who leave the family, will go and help to keep the seal intact.
