"I was indeed born with terminated meridians. From the moment I was born, I was just like the little guy under my feet. I couldn't condense divine power and naturally couldn't become a true cultivator. My parents tried everything they could for me, but unfortunately, they couldn't improve. Later, as I grew older, I realized that the most important thing in this world was power."
"Without strength, I'm nothing. Even though I know I can't condense divine power, I still try my best to cultivate. Since I can't cultivate divine power, I'll temper my body. I'll go through untold hardships, hoping that one day, I'll be able to change all of this …"
Sinking Fire Demon Lord's expression became a little ethereal.
Obviously, when he was young, he must have suffered because of his naturally terminated meridians.
Otherwise, with Sinking Fire Demon Lord's current strength and capital to move freely in the Absolute Beginning Divine World, it was obvious that his situation had changed.
After a pause, Sinking Fire Demon Lord continued, "No matter who it is, as long as they are willing to persevere and work hard, they will be rewarded. My efforts were indeed rewarded, or rather, I was lucky enough to meet my master!!"
"My master was already one of the elders of the Purple Star Demon Sect back then. He was also a Master of the Laws of the Three Realms of the Void. When he saw me, he saw that I had naturally terminated meridians with a single glance. Perhaps because he saw how hard I worked, he personally took me in as his personal disciple and spent a great price to reconstruct my meridians. He then brought me to the Purple Star Demon Sect. From that moment onwards, my fate changed completely."
Hearing this, Jian Wushuang understood.
No wonder the Sinking Fire Demon Lord was so loyal to the Purple Star Demon Sect and his master. As it turned out, his fate began to change when he met his master.
If he hadn't met his master, he probably wouldn't have achieved what he had in the future.
"This little guy in front of me also had naturally terminated meridians. Like me, he knew he couldn't condense divine power, but he still refused to admit defeat and tempered his body with all his might. When I look at him now, it's as if I'm looking at myself." Sinking Fire Demon Lord stared at the young man below, his eyes full of melancholy.
"Hmm? This young man seems to be planning to go back, "Jian Wushuang suddenly said.
He had already noticed that the youth who had been carrying the boulder and running through the mountains below had already put down the boulder and was walking towards the city not far away.
"From the looks of it, he should be living in that city. He just deliberately went to this secluded place outside the city to cultivate." Jian Wushuang smiled, "Chen Huo, since you said that this little guy is the same as you when you were young, and he's heading for Wu Xin City, why don't you and I follow him to have a look?"
Sinking Fire Demon Master hesitated for a moment before nodding slightly. "Alright."
The two of them moved, but they slowed down and followed the young man on the ground towards the giant city.
They watched as the young man entered the city. Not long after, he entered a large courtyard.
"This courtyard seems to belong to a family. Looks like this little guy is a disciple of a family," Jian Wushuang said with a smile.
"If he's the son of an ordinary cultivator, it's fine. Even if he has naturally terminated meridians, it has nothing to do with others. But a disciple of a family … As long as it's a family, the internal competition is very fierce. This little guy doesn't even have a trace of divine power. Growing up in such a family environment, he must have suffered a lot," Sinking Fire Demon Master said with a frown.
"There's a tavern opposite this family. Come, let's have a drink there and ask about this little guy." Jian Wushuang smiled and headed straight for the tavern.
When they arrived at the tavern, Jian Wushuang and Sinking Fire Demon Master sat down by the window. The two of them could see the huge courtyard opposite through the window.
"Sirs, what can I do for you?" A black-clothed waiter of the tavern appeared in front of Jian Wushuang and Sinking Fire Demon Master.
Jian Wushuang waved his hand and took out an Interspatial Ring. The Interspatial Ring did not recognize an owner. The black-clothed waiter scanned it with his consciousness and immediately sensed that the Interspatial Ring was densely packed with Divine Elixir Pills. There were at least 100,000 Divine Elixir Pills!
"Let me ask you some questions. Answer them honestly. If I'm satisfied, this Interspatial Ring is yours," Jian Wushuang said.
"My Lord, please ask. I'll tell you everything I know." The black-clothed waiter's eyes were burning.
He was just a waiter in this tavern. Although he had reached the level of an Undying Saint, he was at the bottom of the Undying Saints. 100,000 Divine Elixir Pills was already a huge fortune for him. Of course, he would cherish the opportunity in front of him.
"Let me ask you, where is the huge courtyard opposite?" Jian Wushuang asked.
"My Lord, that's the mansion of the Zhao family, one of the five great families in Wu Xin City. Although the Zhao family is not a great family in the Bone Serpent Domain, Wu Xin City is one of the most prosperous cities in the Bone Serpent Domain. To be able to occupy a place in Wu Xin City, the Zhao family's foundation is not weak. There are rumors that the Zhao family used to have a Saint at the peak, but I don't know if they still have one now," the black-clothed waiter said truthfully.
"Then do you know that there's a young man in the Zhao family who can't condense Divine Power?" Jian Wushuang continued to ask.
"Of course I know that. The third young master of the Zhao family, Zhao Mang, is famous in Wu Xin City except for being a good-for-nothing young master," the black-clothed waiter said with a smile.
"It's said that since Zhao Mang was born, he couldn't absorb the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth, nor could he condense Divine Power. Now that he's 16 years old, he still can't enter the path of cultivation. Many people in Wu Xin City treat him as a joke."
"Even his father, the current Master of the Zhao family, has always regarded Zhao Mang as a disgrace. His two brothers have already drawn a clear line with him and have no contact with him at all. If it weren't for the fact that he more or less has the bloodline of the Zhao family and his sister, the Fourth Miss of the Zhao family, has been protecting him, Zhao Mang would have been expelled from the Zhao family long ago."
"Even father and brother see him as a disgrace?" Jian Wushuang raised his eyebrows.
"This is a family. In the competitive environment of the Third Heaven, these people no longer have family in their eyes. They only care about strength and their own interests." Sinking Fire Demon Lord's face was cold. "However, in the Zhao family, his sister has come out to protect him. It can't be considered a complete betrayal."
