chapter 2121-2125
Chapter 2121
Noel guffawed in disbelief. “If it’s something that important, do you think that I’d still be able to sit here,
enjoying tea while chit-chatting with you?”
That eventually clicked for Jackie; Noel made sense. However, what else could mess things up apart
from this?
Noel did not wait for Jackie to ask as he instantly continued, “Didn’t I tell you before, that Elder Eleven is
getting his one and onlyst disciple? The formal disciples are fighting among themselves because of
this. Oliver even joined the wager battle arena with other formal disciples because of this. The wager
battle arena is so lively that there’s no ce to stand, seeing how jam-packed it is there. Do you want to
go and take a look?”.
Jackie sighed hopelessly; he did not think that this was such an important matter. It was just a matter of
gaining the final disciple, so what was so special? Although this final disciple would only affect where
Elder Godfrey sided in the future, it would only affect the greatest issue the sect was facing. Was that not
the problem the Corpse Pavilion caused?
Jackie shook his head without thinking twice. “To be honest, I’m not in the mood to take a look now, even
if they’re fighting to the death. It’s all just fights among a handful of formal disciples.”
Brook’s and Noel’s mouths twitched at this. They exchanged looks and could not help but smiled bitterly
before they looked at Jackie in a slightly helpless manner. Jackie was surprised when the two of them
were looking at him in such a way.

Did he say something wrong?
Noel gave Jackie a thumbs-up and shook it in front of Jackie. “I have to admit that masters like you don’t
have the same thoughts as useless morons like me. Mind you, everyone can barely focus on training
Cause we’re all too focused on these fights. You, on the other hand, don’t even care about the mess
outside and only focus on your training. I admire your mentality.”
There was not even a hint of ridicule in Noel’s sincerest sentence. He was unable to achieve Jackie’s
mentality of only focusing on what was important while ignoring the outside world. He was not the only
one, however, as the n brothers were also attracted by what was going on. Some of their junior
brothers even came out of their retreat just to take a look at this matter.

Brook’s eyes widened, and he stretched his head forward as he said, “But this is rted to who our
future sect master will be. Are you not curious at All?
Jackie also poured himself a cup of tea and spoke as he drank the tea. “Can I control who the future sect
master will be? I won’t join such events; it’s just a waste of my time.”
Noelughed at this, so much so that his shoulders trembled. “You have such a good mentality, but you’ll
be forced to join the event after a couple of days, even if you don’t wish to do so.”
Jackie looked up in a puzzling manner. “Why?”
Noel immediately informed Jackie about thetest order that came from the sect. Ten dayster, Elder
Godfrey would be announcing in front of the entire sect which disciple he would ept as hisst
disciple. Apart from the disciples who were in retreat, away for training, or the deacons, everyone else
had to be at the gathering spot for roll call by seven in the morning.
Jackie spoke reluctantly, “Is it such a grand event? Everyone has to be there, apart from those in retreat
and in training? It’s just onest disciple. What does this have to do with informal disciples like us? Isn’t It
enough for us to know that there is such a person?”
Chapter 2122
Jackie did not want to participate in the event. Noel pursed his lips and said, “Elder Eleven is one of the
formal elders, and this is his only disciple. This isn’t considered a big deal for our Dual Sovereign
Pavilion. Our disciples understand what has happened among the formal elders, which is why everyone
pays special attention to this matter. On top of that, all the other formal elders also pay high importance
to this matter. Ten days from now, all the formal elders of the inner gate will also be at the gathering spot
for roll call.”
Jackie’s lips twitched at this. Since all the formal elders would be there, he could not act like he was
above the rules and excuse himself from the event. He raised his brows, and the dignified face of Elder
Godfrey shed through his mind. He was incredibly curious as to who Elder Godfrey would choose as
hisst disciple.
Although this had little to do with him, he did not wish for Elder Godfrey to ept Oliver as hisst
disciple. No matter what, Oliver was his enemy, and it was, of course, not a good thing for his enemy to
be stronger.

Noel took another sip of his tea and said, “I’ll knock on your door in ten days’ time, and we can go
together.”
Jackie nodded.
When Brook saw that Jackie was indeed not interested in the battles, he tugged at Noel’s sleeve and
said,” Senior Brother Noel, since Senior Brother Jackie isn’t going to the wager battle arena, let’s go and
have a look. Even runner disciples like us have put aside our work to observe the lively scene.”
Brook’s eyes shone brightly as he spoke, his excitement all too obvious.
Noel nodded as he, too, wanted to observe Oliver’s capabilities with his own eyes. The two of them
came to an agreement and left for the wager battle arena after exchanging some words with Jackie.
After closing the door, Jackie calcted the time he had. Ten days was neither short nor long, and it
should be enough for him to absorb the blood of the Ancient Eclipse Dragon.
He did not wish to waste any time. He was not in the mood to participate in the exciting event that had
attracted the interest of all the sect’s members. To prevent others from disturbing him, Jackie asked
Nash toe out and keep an eye out for him.
After learning about Jackie’s n, Nash patted Jackie’s shoulder. “Don’t worry, no one will disturb you on
my watch. Still, this is the blood of a mythical beast. Are you confident that you can absorb it without
possibly harming yourself?”
Nash had limited understanding of the mythical beast’s blood. He had heard about it, but he did not know
how to absorb it. On the contrary, Jackie had a deeper understanding of the mythical beast’s blood. After
all, the great master was from a first-ss world, and only first-ss worlds contained information about
these mythical beasts. Hence, he knew a lot about them.
Jackie raised his head and shot Nash aforting smile. “Don’t worry about me. Although this drop of
mythical beast’s blood seems to be roaring with life now, it’s only acting out of instinct and won’t put me
in much danger.”
Nash raised his brows and said worriedly, “Is that so? Why do I feel that this drop of blood from the
mythical beast seems quite difficult to be dealt with? Will it gain control over you instead?”
Jackie shook his head. “No, that won’t happen. I may suffer while absorbing this, but there is no danger
of a bacsh.”
No longer in the mood to entertain questions, Jackie ced the crystal on the table. This crystal was
made of a special material, and if Jackie did not have the memories of the great master, he might be
hovering over the crystal at that moment.
Although the crystal contained the Ancient Eclipse Dragon’s blood, nothing could be done if the crystal
could not be broken. Fortunately, Jackie had inherited the skills from the great master, and he knew how
to break the crystal to retrieve the Ancient Eclipse Dragon’s blood. With a flip of his hand, a strand of
pure true energy fell out of his body and flew into the crystal along his fingers. Then, the sound of mineral
cracking was heard as cracks instantly appeared on the originally iron-like crystal.
Chapter 2123 The mythical beast’s blood that darted left and right like a beast that broke out of the cage
seemed incredibly invigorated. It looked like it wanted to rush out and escape into mid-air. How could
Jackie allow that to happen? He took a ck dagger out of the Mustard Seed and cut his right palm.
Blood immediately flowed out of the wound, and just as the drop of mythical beast’s blood was about to
escape, he raised his wounded hand to grab the blood and imprisoned it in his palm. Jackie then quickly
pressed the drop of blood at the position where his wound was opened. The mythical beast’s blood was
instantly diluted after it came into contact with Jackie’s blood.

Hiss!
It sounded like red-hot soldering iron ced into cold water. Nash frowned, and the worried look in his
eyes deepened.
However, Jackie did not say a word. He instantly pressed onto the newly cut wound after his blood had
merged with the mythical beast’s blood. The mythical beast’s blood flowed into Jackie’s body in such a
way. Jackie could only hear his heart beating heavily as if his heart had been filled with lead.
Jackie’s skin quickly turned red and hot. He did not hesitate and immediately sat down with his legs
crossed. He started to perform seals as he activated the Divine Void Heavenly Path. He used the power
of the martial art technique to suppress and absorb the mythical beast’s blood.
“What is that?” Jackie suddenly spoke in surprise.
Nash was stunned. He saw Jackie looking ahead and was reacting as if he had seen something
shocking. Meanwhile, nothing changed inside Jackie’s room. What, then, had shocked Jackie that he
reacted like that?
Nash frantically blurted, “What’s happening to you? What did you see? Are you having hallucinations?
Have you gone crazy?”
Nash’s persistent questioning made Jackie realize his father had not seen what he had. Jackie exhaled
softly and remarked, “I saw a translucent divine dragon!”
“What divine dragon? Why don’t I see it?” Nash’s expression was a little stiff. Upon thinking things
through, however, he realized that this was the effect of the mythical beast’s blood.
This was an endless starry sky, and the vast gxy shone dazzlingly beside Jackie. Among this starry
sky, a several hundred-feet long dragon rose circled the sky. This gargantuan dragon did not look exactly
the same as the divine dragon’s in Jackie’s impression. Although it also had the body of a snake and four
legs, its scales were shining. The dragon seemed to be translucent, and there were times where its body
dimmed down. It looked as if it would disappear at any time.
At this moment, a man in ck clothes suddenly appeared some distance away. The man was also
hidden among the starry sky. For some unknown reason, the ck-clothed man suddenly roared toward
the Ancient Eclipse Dragon. “All you can think of is escaping at times as crucial as this? Aren’t you
ashamed when you im that you’re from a purebred mythical beast’s bloodline?”
The Ancient Eclipse Dragon did not answer this person’s question and continued to hover in the starry
sky. Theck of response from the Ancient Eclipse Dragon seemed to have angered the man in ck,
and he suddenly punched into the void, sneering as he did.
Chapter 2124 Jackie felt a st of destructive energy hammering toward him as the mysterious
individual threw his punch. That power even caused the surrounding starry sky to tremble. It was a
strong wave of power that Jackie had never experienced in the past.
With an audible bang, Jackie fell backward and tumbled onto the ground, having lost his bnce.
When Jackie opened his eyes again, he had already returned to the real world and saw his father staring
at him worriedly. Nash stretched out his hand and gently patted Jackie’s cheek. “Are you alright? What
did you see? Why are you sweating so much?”
Jackie’s breaths were quick, and his heart raced vigorously. It even felt like his heart was thumping at
190 beats per minute. He knew it was all an illusion, but that punch was truly terrifying. Had he truly
stood before the ck-clothed man back there, there was no need for the man to punch him: Jackie
would have turned to ashes and disappeared from this world with just that man’s exhale.
Jackie waved his hand weakly and allowed Nash to help him sit upright. “I’m fine, it’s just an illusion. A
horrible one, that is.”
The moment Jackie spoke, Nash suddenly blurted, rather surprised, “You’ve broken through into the
intermediate stage of innate level!”
Only then did Jackie realize that he had broken through into the intermediate stage of innate level upon
hearing Nash’s words. On top of that, his mastery of the Divine Void Heavenly Path had also improved.
He stretched out his arm, and with a grasp of his palm, he felt that his entire body was filled with
inexhaustible power.
Jackie did not know if this was an expected or unexpected result. He had been in the initial stage of the
innate level for some time. If he followed his speed of training when he was in Daxia, he would have
broken through several realms a long ago. However, the Hestia Continent was a high-level world, and
their training system was different. If it was not for the Ancient Eclipse Dragon’s blood, it would have
taken Jackie some time to enter the intermediate stage of the innate level.
After realizing this, hemented, “It’s so troublesome to break through a small realm. No wonder
warriors in the spring solidifying realms are already considered masters in the West Cercie State.”
Nash nodded. During this period, he had been busy training while studying the ancient scripts Jackie
found to better understand the Hestia Continent. As a result, he had a better understanding of the
continent.
He helped Jackie up from the ground with his right hand and guided Jackie to sit on the bed next to them
before patting the dust off of Jackie’s clothes.
“There are so many realms in Daxia, and we only realized that those realms belong to the acquired state
after we arrived at the Hestia Continent. From this point alone, we can see how big the difference
between bothnds are. Right now, a small breakthrough of the realm in this world is equal to several
realms in Daxia. You should probably drop this, then. You don’t face a shortage of teachers, martial
skills, or martial art techniques. You’re in a much better statepared to other martial artists. As long
as you focus on your practice, I’m sure you’ll be able to achieve higher realms, let alone the spring
solidifying realm.”
Jackie had a small smile on his face, surprised by his father’s words. Nash seldom praised him with so
many words, but this had lightened Jackie’s mood. In fact, Nash was right when he thought about it. The
worlds are of different levels, and the difficulty to break through was naturally different.
Nash did not wish for his son to be constantly struggling with how difficult the future was. Hence, he
changed the subject of the conversation and said, ” What did you see just now? You look visibly terrified,
and it’s like you’ve seen something worse than a ghost.”
Jackie could not help but gulp upon recalling what he saw. “You are right about one thing: it’s scarier than
a ghost. I saw an extremely powerful martial artist, and I also saw a mythical beast, the owner to this
drop of blood. I saw the exchange between those two. Unexpectedly, the mythical beast’s blood also
contains the memory of the beast.”
Chapter 2125
Jackie was certain that the illusion he had seen was the memory of the mythical beast, and it was
something that left the deepest impression on the beast. Nash frowned in surprise.
Just as Nash was about to question Jackie further, somebody knocked on the door. Jackie frowned and
asked subconsciously, “Who’d interrupt me at this hour?
Unexpectedly, Nash looked at Jackie in surprise and said, “It must be Noel and Brook. Didn’t Noel tell
you? He said that he’d bring you to the gathering spot for the roll call in ten days.”
Jackie was visibly stunned, evident in the way his eyes widened at Nash’s words. The corners of his
mouth slightly trembled. “Are you saying that I’ve trained for ten days?”
Nash saw Jackie’s expression and instantly understood why he was so surprised. Nash nodded and
said, “Ten days have indeed passed.”
Jackie exhaled a long sigh of relief as a trace of disbelief shed across his eyes. He had just fallen into
the illusion, and it felt like he had only been meditating for less than an hour. He only saw the Ancient
Eclipse Dragon flying in the sky and the man in ck clothing. Who would have expected that Jackie’s
short experience in the illusion meant that ten days have passed in reality?
Nash patted Jackie’s shoulder. “Alright, put aside the things that you can’t figure out at this moment. If
you don’t open the door for them, they’ll break down the door sooner orter.”
“Jackie! Are you inside? I did say I’de get you in ten days. Did you run off to train at some other
ce?” There was a hint of helplessness in Noel’s voice. Jackie reacted sighed softly and immediately
got up from the bed. After returning Nash to the Mustard Seed, he opened the door.
Noel studied Jackie’s form the moment the door opened before he stretched his neck to take a look at
the room behind Jackie. When he saw that nobody was there, he asked curiously, “I knocked on the door
so much that my hands hurt. What were you doing inside? Don’t tell me that you didn’t hear me knocking
on the door?”
Jackie chuckled helplessly as he quickly moved away from the door, allowing Noel and Brook, who
followed behind, to enter his room. Brook was about to go in for a cup of tea when Noel stopped him.
“Why are you still going in at this hour? We need to report ourselves at the gathering spot in fifteen
minutes. Do you want to be thest one to arrive there?”
By then, Brook snapped out of it. He had been so used to entering Jackie’s room that it had be a
habit. He quickly nodded. “You’re right; this isn’t time for tea. The reception for epting a new disciple
will begin soon, and almost all our disciples will be there.”
Noel nced at Jackie and pointed at his clothes. “Do you want to have a change of clothes before we
go?”
Jackie looked down at his clothes. He had been so focused in his training that his blood cirction was
too fast. His clothes were soaked in sweat and looked extremely dirty.
He smiled awkwardly. “Please wait for a moment. I’ll clean up, and we can be on our way shortly.”
After Jackie changed, the three of them walked toward the gathering spot. It was a ce where the Dual
Sovereign Pavilion held important meetings, and so spacious that it could amodate 5000 to 6000
people
“How did the battle go the other day?” Jackie asked Noel on their way to the spot. “Did Oliver win?”
