Even though he was a ninth level Void Initiation Stage martial artist now, and he'd even taken first place in the Darkhan Dynasty's Martial Competition and obtained the honor of first place.
But he knew extremely clearly in his heart that the young geniuses of the Darkhan Dynasty and the young geniuses of the Foreign Lands were two completely different concepts.
"According to the memories of Samsara Emperor Wu's two lifetimes … Not to mention the shocking accomplishments he obtained before the age of 40 in his second lifetime. Even if it's other martial artists, there are many that have stepped into the Void Transformation Stage before the age of 40. "
Void Transformation Stage before the age of 40.
What sort of concept was that?
Duan Lingtian didn't dare continue imagining it.
"Not to mention others, just the people I know … Even though Xue Nai's appearance is maintained at 15 or 16 years old, her true age is only a little over 20."
"Void Transformation Stage … Perhaps she'll be able to smoothly step into it before the age of 30!"
When he thought up to here, Duan Lingtian seemed as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on him, and he felt that the accomplishments he'd obtained in the past were utterly not worth mentioning before Xue Nai.
"Xue Nai, you're really a blow to me."
Duan Lingtian sighed in his heart, and he couldn't help but recall that mysterious young woman.
When he thought of the young woman, he naturally couldn't help but recall those three little fellows.
"Little Black, Little White, Little Gold … I wonder how they're doing now, and if they've entered that extremely dangerous place Qing Nu spoke of."
Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
In next to no time, Duan Lingtian pulled back his thoughts that had drifted away, and his mood gradually calmed down as well.
"Right, the Spatial Ring Father left behind for me."
All along the way, the bored Duan Lingtian withdrew the Spatial Ring Nie Yuan gave him a few days ago, the Spatial Ring his father, Duan Rufeng, left for him.
Hiss!
A drop of fresh blood dripped down, and after the Spatial Ring established ownership with his blood, it gave Duan Lingtian a feeling of being connected by blood.
After the Spatial Ring established ownership, Duan Lingtian impatiently looked towards the space within it.
It was a huge space, but it was empty.
There was a jade slip, three stacked together similar to the 'talisman paper' used by the Taoist priests in his previous life, and a thick ancient book that was tightly folded together with a faint light flashing around it.
The entire book was dark green in color, and there was nothing special on the cover. However, Duan Lingtian felt that the faint light on the cover was very unusual.
"Is that a Sound Transmission Jade Slip?"
In the end, Duan Lingtian discovered that of the things his father had left behind, the only thing he recognized was the Sound Transmission Jade Slip. "It seems that father left me a message before he left … I wonder what he said."
Out of curiosity, Duan Lingtian took out the Voice Transmission Jade Slip and infused his essence force into it.
In an instant, a familiar voice was clearly transmitted into Duan Lingtian's ears.
This voice belonged to Duan Lingtian's father, Duan Rufeng.
"Tian 'er, when you heard this message, father had already brought your mother, Jing Ru, and the two future daughters-in-law away from the Darkhan Dynasty …"
When he heard this, the corner of Duan Lingtian's mouth could not help but twitch.
'Two future daughters-in-law?
'Is he talking about Xiao Lan and Bi Yao?
'Is he still my father?'
He wished he could stay as far away from those two girls as possible, but his father was actually causing trouble at the side. How was he going to face those two girls in the future?
Wait a minute …
'Left the Darkhan Dynasty?'
Duan Lingtian could not help but gasp, and his heart trembled from the shock.
'Aren't they going out to relax?
Why are they leaving the Darkhan Dynasty? '
After the shock, Duan Lingtian temporarily calmed down, and he thought about the scenes after his cheapskate father, Duan Rufeng, returned.
Firstly, his father only returned after 23 years.
Secondly, it was his father's experience during those 23 years, and it was only vaguely mentioned with a single sentence.
He still clearly remembered what his father had said to him back then.
"All those years ago, I went to the Swamp of Death to search for the Serene Cereus for you and your mother, and an unforeseen event occurred during that time … Because of some reason, it caused me to be unable to control myself during these 23 years, and I was unable to return to look for you and your mother.
"If it wasn't for the sake of being able to return to look for you and your mother, I would have chosen to die together with that person since long ago … There was utterly no need for me to be ordered around by him for so many years and struggle at death's door until today!
"That person has his retribution and has been completely annihilated … Otherwise, father might not have been able to return to look for you and your mother."
These were the words his father said when he returned.
At that time, Duan Lingtian thought his father was imprisoned and enslaved by someone, and that person's strength was extremely formidable, causing his father to be unable to find a chance to escape to look for him and his mother.
But now that he thought about it, there were many loopholes in it.
Since that person was so formidable, how could he be annihilated so easily?
"Besides that, father said that his Origin Energy didn't exist any longer … Because of what he said, I subconsciously believed that his cultivation had been crippled. When my Spiritual Force probed his body and didn't notice any traces of Origin Energy, I was even more certain that his cultivation had been crippled. "
Duan Lingtian frowned when he thought up to here. "If father really lost his cultivation, then how did he bring mother, Jingru, Xiao Lan, and Bi Yao away from the Darkhan Dynasty?"
Even if there was something that could be used as a means of transportation, there were numerous experts in the world outside the Darkhan Dynasty, so how could the Crimson Sky Kingdom compare to it?
For a time, Duan Lingtian couldn't help but be slightly worried.
He was worried about the safety of his father and mother.
He was worried about the safety of Jingru, Xiao Lan, and Bi Yao.
"What's going on?"
Duan Lingtian was completely unable to wrap his head around it. Gradually, he stopped thinking about it and fused his Origin Energy further into the voice transmission fragment in his hand as he continued to listen to his father's words.
"Are you very puzzled now as to why I brought your mother and the others away from the Darkhan Dynasty? Are you worried about our safety? If so, you can be at ease, we're very safe now. "
The corners of Duan Lingtian's mouth twitched when he heard up to here.
He really felt that at this moment, his father was like a worm in his stomach.
However, he heard the confidence in his father's tone.
Duan Lingtian continued listening.
"I know you have many questions in your heart, but it's not convenient for me to tell you now … Besides that, we won't be returning to the Crimson Sky Kingdom in the short term. Perhaps, when we meet in the future, it'll be in the outside world and not the Crimson Sky Kingdom. "
"Xiao Lan and Bi Yao's natural talent isn't bad, and they'll surely become great talents with some training! As for Jingru, her natural talent isn't bad as well. Coupled with your mother being used to having her by her side, I brought her along. "
"At this moment, I'm sure you've already seen the two things I left for you … Firstly, the three talismans that are stacked together might be able to save your life three times in the future. The way to activate it is to throw the talisman at your opponent, then lock your gaze on your opponent and shout 'Activate.' "
Talisman?
Duan Lingtian frowned.
To be honest, he was not unfamiliar with talismans at all.
Of course, it was not because he had the memories of the Reincarnation Emperor Wu. In the memories of the Reincarnation Emperor Wu, there were no records of talismans at all.
The reason he was familiar with talismans was because talismans were not rare on earth where he lived in his previous life.
Especially in the ancient eastern kingdom where he lived, talismans were extremely rare.
"I felt that the three talismans were slightly strange earlier, and there were talismans on them that were extremely similar to the talismans from my previous life … I didn't expect that they were really talismans!"
"Moreover, Father said that the three talismans could save my life three times? Could it be that there's some sort of secret within those three talismans? "
Duan Lingtian's heart was filled with bewilderment, and he wished for nothing more than to take out a talisman right now, shout 'Activate', and test it out.
But his reason stopped him.
Subconsciously, he felt that the three talismans shouldn't be wasted like this, and they should be used where they were needed.
"Why would Father have these talismans?"
This was something that Duan Lingtian was unable to wrap his head around.
Wasn't his father a person without any cultivation? Where did these strange talismans come from?
After all, even if he searched through the memories of the Reincarnation Emperor Wu of his two lifetimes, he didn't find any records related to talismans … In other words, on Cloud Continent, the Reincarnation Emperor Wu had never heard of talismans, let alone seen one.
This could be seen from this how rare talismans were.
"Father, where did you get these weird things?"
As he looked at the three talismans within the Spatial Ring, Duan Lingtian didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
No matter how he looked at it, these three talismans seemed like the things that the swindling Daoists in the ancient eastern kingdoms of his previous life used to swindle people.
"But Father probably wouldn't lie to me."
In next to no time, Duan Lingtian caught his breath and continued to listen to the voice that came from the voice transmission jade slip.
"Besides the three talismans, I've left you a Exquisite Jade Box. Once you have the ability to open it in the future, you'll know where your mother and I are."
"Alright, I've said enough. That's all … You don't have to worry about us, we're fine."
"Besides that, I still haven't seen my other two daughters-in-law. You stinking kid, bring them to see me earlier …"
The voice stopped abruptly when it reached here.
Duan Lingtian laughed bitterly.
Based on his father's tone, it was extremely carefree.
"This is the 'Exquisite Jade Box'? I thought it was an ancient book. "
Duan Lingtian's gaze slowly descended onto the thing that looked like a book within the Spatial Ring.
With a thought, Duan Lingtian took it out from the Spatial Ring.
"So cold!"
The Exquisite Jade Box was icy cold to the touch, and the icy cold feeling spread throughout Duan Lingtian's entire body in the blink of an eye, causing him to be unable to help but shiver.
After carefully observing for a while, Duan Lingtian was able to see that there was a tiny gap in the middle of the Exquisite Jade Box, and it was precisely the gap that appeared when the jade box was closed.
"Father left a message in the Sound Transmission Jade Slip, saying that once I have the ability to open this jade box, what will happen? Just this jade box, I can casually … "
Duan Lingtian's muttering stopped here.
Because at the same time that he was muttering to himself, he'd already wrapped his hand with Origin Energy and tried to open the jade box.
