“In order to reach the ninth rank as soon as possible and marry Flo, and for greater glory and the empire’s honor, I embarked on this journey of training. But I never expected that it was precisely the gains from this training that would become my lifelong nightmare in the near future.”
Speaking of this, Ilex’s face gradually became ferocious, his anger erupting, and the violent soul fluctuations caused the Eternal Tower to tremble in a series.
“Leaving Yanjing, I roamed the mainland. With my eighth-rank cultivation, I encountered almost no difficulties. I spent two full years traveling to almost every city in the three great empires. I saw different customs and experienced the joys and sorrows of the world. Both my vision and my cultivation have made great progress. Perhaps because I am a person chosen by the Goddess of Light, I have had many adventures in these two years. And I obtained an unparalleled powerful technique.”
“When I returned to Yanjing, my cultivation had reached the peak of the eighth rank. Seeing Flo again, I couldn’t help but burst into tears of joy as I held her. I could feel that I had touched the edge of the ninth rank, and it was only one step away from breaking through. I believed that it wouldn’t be long before I could marry my beloved Princess Flo. And I will surely become the future strongest in the empire.”
“At that time, I was completely without any scheming. I told Flo about all the adventures I had encountered during my two years of training, letting her share in my joy and the moving process. However, one thing made me slightly unhappy. The son of the Pope also entered the Royal Magic Academy to study. At that time, I was very strange, why did he come here? Compared with our Pampon Empire, the Holy See of Light should have a deeper research on magic, he didn’t need to come here to study at all!”
“However, the joy of being about to unite with Flo made me not think too much. I shared everything I experienced during my travels with Flo without reservation. Flo was very interested in the technique I obtained in my adventure, hoping that I could give it to her to learn, but I refused. That technique was indeed magical, but it must not be learned or used lightly. Because the price to pay is too great, I was afraid that she would be hurt!”
“Do you know what kind of technique that is? Speaking of it, I still find it extraordinarily magical. Although the technique is just fragments, it requires the fusion of souls to cultivate. It seems to be the ability of an ancient race from another world. It is called soul technique. This technique has a very strange name, called Turtle Shell Technique.”
“When I first got it, I thought it was just a defensive technique. But later, after careful research, I found that it had nothing to do with defense. Instead, it was a kind of prediction ability. At that time, only the Holy See of Light had prophets in the entire continent. I also knew a little about them. They can only predict the future. And the function of this technique is to predict the present, which can be said to be a kind of divination. It has a most domineering place. That is absolute validity. That is to say, once the Turtle Shell Technique is activated. Then, all creatures within its range of effect will bear its effect. Even the caster is no exception. In its introduction, it is said that even gods within the range of the Turtle Shell Technique will also be subject to the constraints of absolute validity and cannot be immune to its power. What a terrible technique this is! However, absolute validity also brings absolute danger. This technique has extremely strong uncertainty. After it is cast, the caster cannot control the divination result. That is to say, the result may be good, or it may be bad. And in any case, the caster himself must bear a part. Therefore, once this ability is used, and one is unlucky, one may become a sacrifice to the Turtle Shell Technique after a few uses. You say, how can I be willing to learn such a technique? And how can I let Flo learn it?”
Speaking of this, Ilex’s face was full of bitterness, “But Flo didn’t understand my good intentions. She thought I was being selfish and unwilling to teach her this technique. She even flung her sleeves and left. The absolute validity and the attraction of being able to act on gods as well were too great. To the extent that she could no longer treat it with a normal mind. She didn’t even think about it, if I was really being selfish, I wouldn’t have told her about this at all!”
“At that time, I thought she was just acting on impulse for a while and didn’t care too much. She would calm down in two days. Sure enough, when I went to her again two days later, she seemed to have completely recovered, but she seemed to be a little preoccupied. But her attitude towards me was as good as before. She didn’t mention what happened that day. However, what I never expected was that this woman with a viper’s heart had already made plans to plot against me.”
Ilex gritted his teeth and trembled all over, obviously because the initial encounter had brought him too much, too much pain.
“It was a clear day. The weather was very good, the sky was clear and cloudless, and the sunshine was particularly abundant. The rich light element made me, as the son of light, feel unspeakably cheerful. The feeling of being integrated into the sunshine was so beautiful.”
“Flo asked me to go on a picnic. I naturally agreed happily. And I told her that after this picnic, I would retreat to break through to the ninth rank. When I successfully break through, I will ask His Majesty to bestow a marriage and marry her into the family. At that time, I believe His Majesty will at least give me the title of Earl. And a reward as a court mage.”
“We left Yanjing and came to the suburbs. Just as we were enjoying the scenery, suddenly, I found that we were surrounded. A large number of men in black blocked all our escape routes. These people were wrapped in black cloth even on their heads, not revealing any skin. As soon as they appeared, they launched a frantic attack on us. At that time, Flo seemed to be stunned. With her cultivation close to the eighth rank, she seemed to have forgotten how to use magic. As a man, it is only right to protect his woman. And I was extremely conceited at that time. With my eighth-rank peak cultivation, plus the various powerful magics I had painstakingly researched. Although the strength of those men in black was very strong, I killed many of them.”

“However, there were more and more of them. Each of them had a cultivation of at least the seventh rank. At that time, I felt very strange. If these were people sent by the other two great empires to infiltrate. With so many strong people, how could the strong people in Yanjing not notice? If we continue to consume like this, I’m afraid Flo and I will never be able to get out. So, I made a decisive decision and immediately broke through with Flo.”
“At this time, Flo seemed to have also woken up and began to use various summoning magics to help me. We rode her summoned beast and fled towards Yanjing.”
“Just when I thought that the enemy could no longer catch up, we had already broken through the encirclement, and even saw the Yanjing city wall in the distance. Suddenly, a chill invaded my heart. When I looked down, I found that a black dagger had been deeply stabbed into my chest. And the hilt of the dagger was in Flo’s hand.”
Hearing him say this, Long Haochen and Cai’er couldn’t help but gasp in surprise. They never expected that Princess Flo would actually attack Ilex. They are lovers who made vows of eternal love!
“At that moment, her expression was full of ferocity.” A strong sadness flowed from Ilex’s eyes, “She was still muttering, why, why didn’t you pass the Turtle Shell Technique to me? Why? I didn’t want this to happen.”
“My heart hurt a lot, more than the wound. The coldness in my chest gradually became numb. I could feel my vitality draining wildly from that dagger. Even at that time, I still couldn’t believe that it was Flo, whom I deeply loved, who attacked me. I loved her so much! In order to marry her, I cultivated hard day and night. It was so that she and I could be happy, joyful, and proud in the future. However, she stabbed a dagger covered with poison into my left chest, which should be where a normal person’s heart is located. That stab was so decisive. She knew very well that I had no defensive psychology towards her. Moreover, the timing of this stab was chosen at the moment when I was most relaxed.”
“Also at this time. More men in black appeared from the front. They seemed to have been waiting there for a long time and had already anticipated everything in front of them. The previous interception was just an introduction, and Flo’s stab was to make me lose the chance to escape.”
“A somewhat familiar cold voice sounded, he said to Flo: Kill him.”
“It was not until this time that I woke up. The desire to survive made me quickly push Flo away and jump off her summoned beast. At that time, Flo also seemed to be a little dazed. She also seemed to have undergone a psychological change because of this stab and did not attack me in the first time. Taking advantage of this opportunity, I took out a scroll. This was given to me by a scroll-making master, called the Traceless Scroll. Instant parallel teleportation for twenty miles. They obviously didn’t expect that I had such a thing. That’s how I escaped the encirclement. At the moment when the Traceless Scroll took effect, I still clearly remembered that Flo, who had woken up, hurriedly urged her summoned beast to launch an attack on me. At that moment, there was only cold killing intent in her eyes, where was the slightest bit of gentleness from the past.”
Long Haochen and Cai’er were completely immersed in Ilex’s story and even forgot the situation they were facing. Feeling the deep sadness emanating from Ilex, they could imagine how he felt at that time.
For a time, both of them were speechless. There is a reason why the Son of Light betrayed his faith! But in the end, he still betrayed, but is it just that that prompted him to become a natural disaster of the undead?
