A voice came from behind him in an empty and silent place.
Hearing this voice, Adil turned around and saw a figure appear behind him, silently looking at him.
It was an elder wearing a black robe. His face looked terrifyingly old, and the skin on his face was loose and covered with red flesh calluses. Pus and blood continuously flowed out of them, making him look quite terrifying.
He stood there in Silence, and there was not a single trace of a living person's aura on him. Only his eyes looked quite lively, calm and filled with spirituality. They seemed ancient and experienced.
"Who are you?"
Looking at this person's appearance, Adil frowned and asked.
He could sense an unusual aura from the old man in front of him.
Apart from his appearance and appearance, this elder's aura also caught Chen Heng's attention.
It was an extremely strong aura of decay. It did not come from the body, but from the essence of the soul. It gave him an extremely uncomfortable feeling.
"You should not have appeared here."
Looking at Adil, the elder's gaze remained calm, "In the images I saw, you did not exist."
As he spoke, an image appeared in front of Chen Heng.
Amidst the ruins, a few figures were walking.
There were also six figures, and Adil was quite familiar with all of them.
"Li Da, Andak …" Looking at these six figures, Adil was expressionless as he read out their names in Silence.
These six people happened to be the six people who had come here this time. However, what was different was that from their auras, the Andak in this image was the real Andak and not an imposter.
This thought flashed through Chen Heng's mind, and in the next moment, the image in front of him started to change.
Another image appeared. In this image, a massive monster with three heads appeared, roaring at the sky on the plains.
At this monster's feet, Andak and the other four's corpses lay on the ground in Silence. Only Li Da remained, and he struggled to run into the distance. His left arm had disappeared, and the wound looked bloody.
"This is …" Seeing this, Adil's expression became serious.
"This is a scene from the future that originally happened," the elder's voice sounded out.
He looked at Adil with a calm gaze, "I can't see the power of destiny from you.
You are not accepted by this world's Wheel of Destiny, but you are not affected either. "
The elder asked as he looked at Adil. He seemed to be very interested in Adil's current state.
Standing in front of him and listening to his words, Adil felt more and more serious, "Wheel of Destiny? What is that? "
"The Wheel of Destiny is the unification of a world's destiny. All lifeforms that are born in this world exist in this world's Wheel of Destiny."
Looking at Adil, the old man quietly explained to him, "As for an existence from another world like you, because you don't exist in this world's destiny in the first place, we can't see your figure in it.
Hearing the elder's words, Adil inwardly frowned and instinctively touched the longsword at his waist with his right hand.
"There's no need to be so nervous."
Looking at Adil's actions, the elder laughed, and an unsightly smile appeared on his ugly face, "Even though entering a different world is rare, it is not much for some powerful worlds and races.
"In my thousands of years of life, I've seen at least tens of otherworldly creatures in different worlds."
He looked at Adil and said somewhat regretfully, "It's a pity that most of those people did not end up well. They all died from the world's poison."
"World's poison?" hearing this unfamiliar term, Adil decisively asked.
"This is the world's backlash," the elder explained. "When you sneak into a world, the world's instincts will begin to bite you. The world's force will seep into the depths of your soul and slowly affect you.
"You can think of this as not being acclimatized, but the consequences are much more serious."
At this point, he smiled and pointed at his old and ugly face, "The way I look right now is the result of the world's poison's backlash, which has slowly turned me into this.
"This is also the reason why you were able to attract my attention."
He looked at Adil and said interestedly, "Your essence is very special. Your soul's level is clearly not very high, but you seem to be able to shield yourself from the world's force's corrosion. Even though you're following behind a Child of Destiny, you're still alive and well until now, and you even look completely fine.
"This is something that even I do not dare to do."
"Child of Destiny." Hearing this term, Adil paused for a moment and thought back to the scene he had seen before.
In the previous image, there were four figures, and one of them looked like Eileen.
"That's right, it's that little girl."
Seeming to understand what Adil was thinking, the elder said, "Don't think that she's easy to fool. That's the real deal, the Child of Destiny."
"Have you heard of the main character template? That's it. " Then, as if remembering something, he patted his head, "I forgot that you're only a newbie. You probably haven't come into contact with this before."
"You can think of it as the main character in an epic novel. No matter how low their starting point is, no matter how lowly their background is, they will eventually walk to the center of the world's stage, and everyone will make way for them."
"Of course, this little girl hasn't reached that point yet. She's at most a side character now, not at the level of the Child of Destiny."
The elder continued to ramble like a chatterbox.
After a while, seeing the somewhat awkward expression on Adil's face, he came to his senses and said somewhat embarrassedly, "Sorry, sorry. I haven't talked to anyone in a long time, so I couldn't help but say a bit too much."
"You don't know this, but in order to stay in this world for as long as possible, I usually don't talk to anyone. I'm afraid that I'll trigger the fluctuations of the World Force and worsen the poison in my body."
"It's only in front of a special existence like you that I dare to speak like this without worrying about the backlash of the World Force."
"Alright, after talking for so long, it's time to get back to business."
The elder's expression became serious, "Allow me to introduce myself. I'm Cheral, a Destiny Envoy."
"Adil," Adil introduced himself with a slightly serious expression when he saw the other party's appearance.
"You have great potential. Are you interested in becoming a Destiny Envoy?"
The elder called Cheral looked at Adil with a somewhat bewitching expression, "As long as you become a Destiny Walker, I can tell you many things that you don't know about in the past."
"A Destiny Walker? What does that do?" Seeing Cheral's enthusiastic expression, Adil took a step back without batting an eyelid and asked back.
"As you can see." Looking at Adil's appearance, Chellar did not mind and only smiled. "We walk at the edge of destiny, with the children of destiny as our prey and the power of the world as our goal. We are walkers who walk in the multiverse.
"The specific things and rules are too complicated for you right now."
Looking at Adil, Cheral said, "You only need to know what you can obtain."
"Become a Destiny Walker, and you can obtain the Destiny Mark to collect the World Force."
"As for what the World Force can be used for, I don't need to say more. You'll naturally find out in the future."
"What do I need to pay?" Adil asked back as he looked at Cheral.
"I like to deal with smart people." Lightly snapping his fingers, Cheral smiled, "1,000 units of World Stones. I'll allow you to delay the payment for 500 years."
"1,000 units of World Stones." Hearing this number, Adil subconsciously frowned, somewhat unsure of the meaning of this number.
He was completely clueless about the Destiny Walker profession. All the information he knew so far was from what Cheral had told him. If he was not careful, he might be tricked by him.
"The so-called World Stones are the condensation of the World Force, which is also what we need to obtain."
Looking at Adil's reaction, Cheral explained, "Don't think that 1,000 units is a lot. In reality, just leaving the Destiny Mark on your body requires me to pay 100 World Stones."
"Moreover, for others, 1,000 World Stones may seem like a lot, but for you, it may not be."
He paused, then said, "The nature of your soul is very special. It seems to be able to block the world's perception of you, allowing you to approach the Children of Destiny of this world without being affected."
"This is a very good condition. The Children of Destiny usually have a terrifying amount of World Force. As long as you casually affect the Children of Destiny, you can use the Destiny Mark to extract large amounts of World Force."
At this point, his expression became somewhat perverted, "For example, that little girl next to you. If you can continuously affect her and make her like you, or even marry you and have children, you'll immediately be able to obtain large amounts of World Force. One or two thousand World Stones will be a piece of cake."
"If you can get rid of her and end part of this world prematurely, the rewards will be even more shocking. You'll definitely become a millionaire in an instant."
"Of course, unless it's absolutely necessary, I suggest that you don't do this." He added, "The Children of Destiny have a large amount of World Force on them. Once you're killed, the backlash from the World Force will immediately arrive, causing terrifying consequences."
"I won't say much about the consequences, but it'll be very serious."
At this point, he looked at Adil, "Alright, that's all for now."
