The Pinnacle Of Life

“The True Martial Shrine exists inside each of our protectors, and the invasion of the undying clan was equivalent to drilling into our bodies. On the other hand, the endless deadly Chi has been testing our lives all the time.”

“Therefore, after the undying clan invaded the True Martial Shrine, the protectors of every realm would not live long.”

“I count myself lucky. The deadly Chi remains in my body because the source is disconnected. Only less than a tenth remains. I wouldn’t have lasted three thousand years otherwise.”

The old man’s words shocked the crowd.

Before this, only Adrian had figured it out, and only at this time did the others know that this was really the body of a creature, the old man in front of them.

Claudia asked, “I don’t understand one thing. If the True Martial Shrine always existed inside every protector, were there also protectors before the Genbu Emperor passed the trial?”

The old man nodded. “There was one, however, who was not from our Genbu clan. According to my clan’s protectors’ testimony, the first generation protector was a human. After giving the task of protection to my clan’s old ancestor, that human left. No one knows who he is and where he went.”

Adrian and the others’ jaws dropped. They felt like they were listening to some sort of celestial nightmare.
