Lord Shadow

Thinking about it again, the people of Earth have it easy in terms of cultivating energy and understanding the secrets of the Universe.

Each time when they are leveling up and entering into a different realm, the information would be streamed directly into their minds like they have known about it their entire life.

The people of this world might have all of this achievement after countless of trial and error before it arrived to this current way of cultivating energy

They called it the internal energy skills. And each of these sects or schools of martial arts have different ways of absorbing energy from the world and turning it into an internal energy that suited their needs.

For example, that Poison Palm of Yu Rong, that manic and ferocious energy of Xu Meng and even the bleak feeling of the inertial energy from Feng Xiao.

Azief thought that internal energy practice is quite adaptable.

For example, Yu Rong internal energy while it has that pure feeling if one digs deep there is this maliciousness energy inside his internal energy.

And so are the others he had fought a year ago inside that cave

The more he learned about the school of martial arts in this world, the more he became fascinated with it

Azief think this might be because of the practice of gathering internal energy is different for each schools and sect which leads to this differences.

Yet at the same time, Azief felt all this energy originated form the same source, yet it become varied like a thousand path branches off from one path.

This requires his research more. And it would not be bad to let his name to ring all over the world.

Azief might not show it but while he did not care much about fame, that doesn’t mean he does not like it.

At least he likes fame when it serves his purpose.

That is his first objective.

He heard from Xi Feng that every four years there is a Wulin Competition where all kinds of masters and grandmaster would come out and fight.

Azief had a desire to participate in that competition so he could analyze all kind of martial arts and internal energy style of this world.

There is two more years to go before it would be held. Usually, the Xi temple would preside on this matter but from what Azief heard, the Xi Temple is closing its Temple door nowadays.

By that time Azief think his problem with his foot would be resolved if he is going by the pace he is going now.

Other than that also wanted to see their swordsmanship and their technique and skill.

He wanted to see their internal martial art skill so he could create his supreme martial art manual.

It would a perfect manual for internal energy system and sword arts and even techniques.

Azief desires to create an all comprehensive martial arts manual that would make anyone who trained in them to break through this mortal world and ascend into a higher plane of existence.

Like the Jade Emperor giving him the Celestial energy and planted karma into him, he too wanted to form Karma.

For some reason he thinks that by understanding his Karma he could see his grand Path.

Maybe, by that time, he would increase his strength even more.

His second objective is to go to the Temple of Xi and search some clues about the Monkey Demon and that flute.

If he is correct, the that Monkey Demon is the same Monkey statue he saw on the last step of the thirteenth step.

Azief believes this world holds many more mysteries that is just waiting to be uncovered.

Though Azief don’t think he had enough time to discover all of this secrets, if he could only know a few secrets about this world then that might help him in the future.

And while there are not many things that could make him to be concerned in this world, he is concerned about one thing.

His disciple

His disciple told him about the suspicious listing of his name in the List of Swordsman

Even though he heard that his disciple is probably being schemed by the Martial Alliance he is not that worried about it.

After all, they are still mortal.

But he is concerned that Xi Feng would be too rash.

From what he just heard from that conversation between Xi Feng and Yu Rong a year ago he could deduce that there is a big secret regarding Xi Feng and the Martial Alliance.

It seems that it is not such a righteous organization it claimed to be after all.

And Xi Feng had to go through it and face that pressure. If not how could he become strong? Azief did not offer to settee that problem for him and only gave him his opinion.

Being a teacher is something new for him. He never tries to teach someone before. And he doesn’t know if he is teaching him right.

But there is also this feeling of warmth in having a disciple. It is a different kind of warmth than when he spends time with Loki, Sofia and Sina

They are not many people in the Universe that Azief considered friend. There is even fewer people that he considered family.

But he acknowledges Sina, Loki and Sofia as his family. And now he has another person he acknowledges. Xi Feng. It felt like that person is his son.

It is why he could not make it too easy for him. After all, one day he had to leave.

He had to overcome the pressure if he wanted revenge.

If all he wanted, was to live a safe life, Azief would be more than content to just teaches him some simple sword arts.

But if he wanted revenge, the path would be hard.

There is only one way to seek revenge and not being a victim of it. Become so strong that nothing could break you down and dragged you down onto the grave of revenge.

That way, you will never become a victim of revenge yourself. Xi Feng has a lot to go before he could become someone like that.

That was his two objectives right now.

Before the day come for him to leave this world, Azief is slowly preparing himself. Azief smiles a bit as another Winter bird passes through the gaps of his hut.

As he was thinking of all this matter, three people are slowly climbing the mountain and they are near ta the top. These three people is none other than the Three Devils of Han.

They wanted to meet Xi Feng, the Sword Gentleman and forces him to tell where is Old Dragon Li.

But fate like to toys with mortal.

Though one doesn’t know if this fate is predestined or not?

Since the moment that Azief landed on this world, this sealed world is slowly changing.

Could it be the Jade Emperor in his Lake of Fate and Destinies fishes these mortals Fates and directed them to meet that Sword Immortal on top of the Five Element Mountain?

Or could it be it is simply a coincidence?

Whatever the case, fate is toying with them.

When Xi Feng was ordered by his master to hunt some game in the forest. He went and come down the mountain.

But winter wind blows heavy snows and in this large and tall mountain, visibility is reduced and sounds are dampened.

They passed the same forest yet they did not meet because of the wind and snow. Three people are climbing up the mountain yet their target is climbing down.

What a comical farce of fate!
