Unsheathed

In the territory of Treasure Mirror Mountain...

A young man in tattered clothes was filled with spirit.

This was because he was being accompanied by a divine maiden who had walked out from one of the wall paintings in Mural City.

She was such a lofty divine maiden, yet she surprisingly wasn't walking shoulder-to-shoulder with him. Instead, she was walking one step behind him.

This was a clear distinction of status.

One had to realize that she was the Rain Bringer Divine Maiden!

Not only that, but she even told him that her name was Shushi. She didn't have a surname. She would do everything in her power to help him cultivate to a loft height in the next sixty years.

The young man enjoyed the feeling of being at the center of attention. From the moment that he left Mural City to the moment that he passed through the archways and was told by the Rain Bringer Divine Maiden that there was a fated opportunity inside Malicious Ghost Valley that belonged to him, everyone in the surroundings had been looking at him. In fact, they had all been gazing up at him.

He was no longer a pitiful insect who carried the heavy burden of revenge yet was ignored by both heaven and earth.

In fact, he suddenly felt like his feeling of resentment toward those people was no longer as intense after the Rain Bringer Divine Maiden chose to follow and serve him.

The divine maiden who had introduced herself as Shushi also told him that her current cultivation base and combat power were equivalent to the Golden Core Tier. When it came to her defenses and survival ability, however, she could rival those at the Nascent Tier.

This filled the young man with confidence, so much so that he hadn't wavered even when the Rain Bringer Divine Maiden explicitly told him that his fated opportunity in Treasure Mirror Mountain could be filled with unexpected danger or fortune. Things were starting to turn around for him, and he was now favored by the heavens!
