Chapter 765: Within The Seventh Heaven
Chapter 765: Within The Seventh Heaven
"The Nine Heavens will erupt with chaos…? That sounds like a calamity I don't want to experience…" The Dragon King muttered in a dazed voice.
He could've never imagined how serious the situation was, and he couldn't fathom how an old man meeting with someone could possibly start a calamity in the Nine Heavens.
"Anyways, I will speak with everyone that has encountered this person the old man wiped from their memories just in case they remember." General Li said to the Dragon King.
The Dragon King nodded his head and proceeded to send everyone that had encountered Yuan to speak with General Li.
In the end, all of them had their memories stolen from them.
"That old man stole our memories? How is that even possible? He never even got close to me!"
The victims were in disbelief after learning about it.
"The old man possesses an ancient technique that allows him to steal your memories. Although it loses its effects in the upper heavens, this technique works flawlessly against cultivators with inferior cultivation."
"Anyways, I have spent enough time here. I must return and report my findings to the Celestial Emperor."
General Li left the Royal Dragon Family's household shortly after and returned to the upper heavens with the rest of the Heaven's Mandate.
Meanwhile, somewhere in the upper heavens, the old man returned to the jade tablet and sighed, "After looking at their memories of you, I am reminded of your brilliance during your prime days."
"Oh, how I wish I could watch you grow this time as well…"
"But alas, it seems like fate is trying its hardest to keep me away from you. This must be those bastards' doing."
"Unfortunately for them, not even fate can hold you down now. It will only be a matter of time before you return to us and seize the heaven that you rightfully own."
The old man lowered his body until he was on his knees, and he kowtowed to the jade tablet in a revering manner, almost as though he was praying to his god.
While all of this was happening, Yuan was listening to Yan Hara talk about the Demonic Realm.
"And soon after the Divine Paragon sealed off the Demonic Realm, pretty much everyone had forgotten about it, as it was no longer of their concern. Any questions?" Yan Hara asked him.
"Just one." Yuan nodded, and he continued to ask, "Where is the Demonic Realm right now?"
"Where?" Yan Hara raised her eyebrows, wondering to herself why he wanted to know such information, as it sounded like he wanted to go there.
"It's located in the Seventh Heaven, and it's heavily guarded by the Demon Sealing Clan and the Demon Sealing Grotto to make sure nobody messes with the seal. Why do you want to know? Do you want to visit the place?" Yan Hara had to ask him.
Yuan didn't lie and confirmed her suspicions, "Yes, I am a little interested in the Demonic Realm, and I was wondering if I could take a look at it."
"Unfortunately, only those at the top of the Demon Sealing Clan are allowed to get close to the Demonic Realm. Anybody that tries to get close without permission, regardless of their identity, will be slain. The Demon Sealing Clan takes the safety of the seal extremely seriously, after all."
"If you really want to visit the place, you will need to increase your influence within the Demon Sealing Clan. If you become the leader, you can go anywhere you want." Yan Hara said with a suggestive smile on her face.
"You really want me to become the leader, huh?" Yuan couldn't help but smile at her stubbornness.
"If you become the leader, it will almost be like the Divine Paragon has returned— like living a historical event."
"I will think about it." Yuan sighed.
"Please do." Yan Hara chuckled.
Sometime later, Yuan asked Yan Hara, "Now that I am an Advanced Demon Sealer, can I take a look at the demon sealing techniques?"
"Sure thing. Follow me." Yan Hara stood up and brought Yuan to another room, where twelve jade tablets existed.
Yuan immediately began looking through the tablets, and he realized that he recognized a couple of these techniques from his memories.
As the creator of these techniques, he should recognize all of these techniques, but he only recovered a small portion of his memories, hence his situation.
"I'm going to spend a few days here if you don't mind." Yuan turned to look at Yan Hara.
"You can stay here for as long as you'd like. If you have any questions, I will always be here." Yan Hara said.
She then retrieved a jade slip from her spatial ring before handing it to him.
"This is my communication jade slip. Use this to contact me whenever you're in the Grand Library and have any questions."
"Thank you." Yuan accepted the jade slip.
"Then I will leave you alone for now." Yan Hara said to him before leaving the place.
Once he was left alone, Yuan sat before one of the jade tablets and began trying to comprehend the technique.
While Yuan focused on the jade tablets, the other cultivators there would watch him from a distance.
"Isn't he the rumored 'little founder'?"
"I think so. He looks so much like the Divine Paragon's statue."
"I thought it was a hoax, but now that I am seeing him with my own eyes, I feel a little foolish."
The people in the room wanted to approach Yuan out of curiosity, but seeing how he was focused on the jade tablet, nobody bothered him.
"I heard he accepted Senior Yan as his lecturer? What a lucky one. Many people want to be taught by her, but she always refuses them. I think he is her first student."
"I would be surprised if she didn't accept him.. Didn't you know that she's a huge Divine Paragon fanatic? Rumor has it that she's even part of some cult that treats the Divine Paragon as their god."
