Chapter 218 - 198: Ancient Hero in Action!
Tiandu Continent, Central Region.
This place was the stronghold of the Three Great Empires, the University, the Martial God Temple, and other super forces, occupying the most spiritually rich regions of the entire Tiandu Continent.
Deep within a sparsely populated mountain range, the valley was filled with lingering clouds and mist, waterfalls cascaded three thousand feet, and steam rose in swirls. It was like a dream, seemingly a mortal’s immortal realm, and indeed a pocket world endowed with nature’s spiritual energy that far exceeded any other place.
At the peak of a bitterly cold mountain, a young girl sat cross-legged on a bluestone slab, in white garments and simple skirts, her three thousand strands of black hair flowing like a waterfall in the wind.
She was unspeakably beautiful, with skin fairer than frost and snow, her exquisite face beneath her delicate brows, a petite nosed, and cherry lips, characterizing her as a graceful beauty. Yet, she carried an uncommonly vigorous spirit not found in ordinary women, marking her as a rare female warrior.
A surging aura emanated from her, a streak of green light shot from the top of her skull into the clouds, stirring the skies, a rarity in this world.
Indeed, this was a powerful young Martial God, far stronger than an ordinary Martial God. With each breath the girl took, copious amounts of nature’s spiritual energy rushed to be swallowed by her, turning into streams of pure Divine Power flowing between her meridians. Her body was engulfed in a radiant halo, appearing holy and untainted.
Day after day, month after month, the girl sat in meditation upon the bluestone slab, never opening her eyes.
However, in this moment, the meditating girl opened her eyes, and from them shot a blinding divine light, snapping through the clouds toward an elder who was walking on air amidst the mist.
The elder walked on air, silently approaching and respectfully landing before the girl, bowing deeply, "I’ve seen the young lady."
Had any disciple of the Martial God Temple witnessed this, they would have been utterly astonished; this elder was no ordinary man, but a Divine Elder of the Martial God Temple, ranked twelfth, known as Wu Qian, a powerful Heavenly God warrior, and an influential figure. Even the Vice Hall Master would nod in greeting to him, yet here he stood before the girl with extreme reverence, bordering on awe, which was indeed shocking.
