Tong Ruobing opened her eyes, frowning deeply. She waved her hand, and a communication talisman manifested. She warned the maids not to disturb her in case of an emergency. Nothing should have happened so soon, so why was she contacted?
When Tong Ruobing read the message, her frown deepened. "Why is she asking for me? Especially with such urgency?" She walked out of the room and soon arrived at the entrance.
"Why are you here?" she asked directly, looking at a beautiful young woman in black with a small mole underneath her left eye that elevated her beauty.
"The elders are looking for you," Sun Xiu replied. "Why did they send you?" Tong Ruobing asked, raising her guard. She had every reason to guard against the latter's scheme. The Great Talisman City was the only professional faction from the lower dimension that joined the Skill Dao Association and became one of the core figures. Sadly, they have never cultivated a Primal Paragon, so their status is not the best.
But after Tong Ruobing ascended and re-established her foundation, her faction saw hope f. They provided her with all the resources and guidance necessary to ensure that she could grow to one day become a Primal. Of course, such status and resources are bound to affect someone else, and that's where Sun Xiu comes in. Before Tong Ruobing's ascension, she was the most promising talent in the association to become a Primal. Still, after only a little over 10,000 yuan epochs, their status has become the same as they competed for the position of Primal Seed.
"It's an emergency, and no one wanted to leave, so they asked me to fetch you," Sun Xiu replied, not hiding her annoyance. Tong Ruobing glanced at her and secretly shook her head. She has great disdain for this woman. The Skill Path Association has enough resources to train more than one Primal Seeds, but this woman insisted on competing with her and even tried to suppress her after she initially ascended. The chances of someone with such a petty and small mindset becoming a Primal is too little. Tong Ruobing even wondered whether this woman could survive the Paragon Tribulation.
"Lead the way," Tong Ruobing said. The Skill Dao Association was a congregation of mountains similar to the Dao Opening Sect, except they were not floating in the sky. Tong Ruobing's location was one of the four primary mountains, symbolizing the four main professions: pill, weapon, array, and talismans. She frowned when she realized their destination was Destiny Mountain.
The Skill Dao Association accepted people worldwide into their mountains. There is a specific quota, and even other Overlords will compete for them. However, Destiny Mountain was unique as it did not cultivate anyone with Divination talents. Instead, they were in charge of observing the association's luck, destiny, and future.
The two soon reached their destination, and Tong Ruobing was shocked to find out that all the top leaders of the association were present. And once they all glanced at her, she felt suffocated. Luckily, she had also entered the Empyrean Realm, and the most powerful people present were in this realm.
The current Associate President waved his hand to activate an isolated profession, and Tong Ruobing sensed the changes in the environment. 'This is definitely a Paragon Array, and it may be more than just one. What exactly is going on?'
"Child, come," said a calm and soothing voice.
"Elder Chen," Tong Ruobing saluted, looking at the elderly woman with clear eyes and no pupils. "Did something happen?"
"The secrets of Heaven and Earth became chaotic, allowing me to peep at our association's fate without much repercussions," Elder Chen explained in a plain and slow voice. Tong Ruobing did not comment and waited for the latter to explain.
"I saw an opportunity to break this prison, and you will play a part in it," Elder Chen continued. "Are you serious? What can someone like me do in such a situation?" Tong Ruobing was puzzled. Although the association did not give access to certain information, she was smart enough to deduce the level of power involved; thus, she knew how weak she was.
"My divination cannot be wrong," Elder Chen continued. "You will play a part, and the destiny for breaking this lock will bring great fortune to us. Now, I need you to think clearly about whether you have something or experienced something that could help the situation.
"It's alright if you don't. There is a chance that you haven't encountered it yet." Elder Chen was experienced enough to understand how fate operated, so it's entirely possible that Tong Ruobing hasn't encountered the events that led to her participation. However, it would be best if they knew in advance; that way, they could maximize their benefits.
"Something that can affect the current situation," Tong Ruobing muttered before something lashed into her eyes.
"Did you think of something?" Elder Chen asked.
Tong Ruobing summoned an orb with millions of Sealing Talismans. "This is the blood and aura of a terrifying creature sealed in the lower dimension. This is the only thing I can think about."
"Can I see?"
"Yes, but please, be extra careful."
Elder Chen nodded. She knew Tong Ruobing was not the kind of highly cautious type, but she still acted in such a manner — that enough is proof of how serious this sealed blood was. So, she slowly lifted the talismans to sense inside. A murmur penetrated deep into Elden Chen's soul, trying to force her to worship some kind of entity. Additionally, she also sensed her soul rapidly being corroded as madness overwhelmed her senses. She reacted swiftly and protected herself.
"What a terrifying thing," she commented.
"It wasn't this bad," Tong Ruobing said with a frown; she realized this thing's power had silently increased while she was not paying attention. She shuddered, thinking what would have happened had she opened it while still in the Great Emperor Realm.
"Don't worry, we won't take your things without compensation," Elder Chen continued. "As a reward, you will be granted the position of Primal Seed, with all the status and resources. Additionally, you will be the one who carries the destiny from breaking the lock." freёwebnovel.com
