“Lin Shi, I’ll duel you in three days.”

2

Lin Han stood up and his bloodshot eyes stared at Lin Shi coldly.

He had been bullied by Lin Shi for a long time and no longer wanted to endure it silently. He spat out, “To the death, either you die, or I do!”

“Fool.”

Lin Shi did not expect that Lin Han would dare to speak so fiercely at him. His gaze darkened as he laughed coldly. “Good. Very good! In three days, I’ll let everyone see how I cripple a piece of trash like you.”

Lin Shi stared mercilessly at Lin Han and walked away.

Lin Han also turned and walked towards the Lin Clan Sect Residence.

Along the way, he mulled over the declaration he said in the spur of the moment, suddenly feeling some regret in his heart.

‘How am I supposed to fight Lin Shi in three days?’

Then, Lin Han thought of the humiliation and stares he got over the past year. He had been high-spirited when he came to the Lin Clan Sect Residence from the subdivision.

1

He never thought that in the end, he would not be able to stand up against the weakest disciple in the main division, Lin Shi. It was a truly humiliating fact.

“Am I… Really a born loser destined to live the rest of my life like a lowly worm?”

Lin Han looked upwards. Against his will, angry tears flowed down from his eyes. He growled at the sky, “Heaven has no eyes! Heaven has no eyes…”

4

He loathed, from the bottom of his heart.

He hated that he was born mediocre, hated that he suffered humiliation, hated that no matter how hard he tried, he did not get any semblance of a foothold, hated how he could not resist even the weakest enemy…

4

“Kr-rrack!”

Suddenly, a flash of golden lightning crashed down from the sky and struck the top of his head.

3

“Wha!?”

Lin Han’s expression changed. As the golden light bathed him, all he felt was a roar in his head.

‘What… What is this?’

Lin Han’s thoughts moved, and he suddenly sunk into his mind. There, in the dark space, a golden flame flickered to life.

Yes, it was a golden flame!

“F*ck, how can a flame appear in a person’s mind?” Lin Han was shocked, but at the next moment, he sensed that the quietly burning golden flame really did exist in his mind.

1

“Was that the golden divine light that entered my body from that thundercloud earlier?”

Lin Han had a tough will that was far ahead of his peers, and soon, he calmed down. He vaguely felt that the golden spirit fire in his mind would be his great fortune.

Driven by curiosity, he extended his senses and slowly touched the mysterious golden flame in his mind.

Boom!

At that moment, stars suddenly exploded around Lin Han. Time and space seemed to change, and his consciousness arrived at a vast and boundless landscape.

The place looked like a strange land in a distant era, with towering creatures roaring, and thousands of colossal mountains covering the sky.

Then, Lin Han saw a magnificent picture that he would never forget.

In the boundless ancient land, a golden dragon rose from the endless abyss. It leaped thousands of feet and penetrated through the clouds to swim in the skies. Its terrifying might and power struck awe into Lin Han and almost caused his consciousness to crumble.

1

Suddenly, the golden dragon shone with divine light and transformed into an imposing figure. The figure wore a magnificent crown and wore an Emperor’s garments. His black hair danced wildly, and his eyes shone like stars, peerlessly beautiful.

His head reached the skies, and his feet stood on the earth proudly. Any creature in front of him was just like an ant, humble and insignificant.

He, like the only god of this heaven and earth, was immortal.

However, at this moment, the gigantic figure suddenly looked down towards Lin Han.

Hum!

Suddenly, Lin Han felt his body locked by a terrifying spiritual sense.

Then, a gaze shone down on his body. In that gaze was endless knowledge, like the crystallization of eons of history.

No vast earth, boundless sky, or endless cycle was comparable to the immemorial time and space in that gaze.

“Se…Sir… Who… Are you?” Although Lin Han was born in the subdivision, he liked to read ancient texts. He knew that in some legends, there were extraordinary powers and powerhouses in ancient times.

Could it be that the gigantic figure in this world was a remnant of a supreme being?

“Who am I? I am… the First Ancient Dragon Emperor, the almighty, the only supreme one to have touched the divine realm!” the figure suddenly spoke.

3

The voice held dignity and pride, but at the same time, it also held mockery.

“Sir, since you have already reached the divine realm, why…” Lin Han said slowly and carefully.

“Because in this world exists the most beautiful, yet the most malicious woman…” The figure’s voice suddenly took on a murderous tone, one which held deep regret.

3

Hearing this, Lin Han suddenly felt a great wave of sadness.

“I’ve suffered betrayal at the hands of the woman I loved the most but I escaped by traversing time and space. I arrived here, with the Spirit Fire intact and in my possession… I will soon die, but regret weighs heavily in my heart. I seek vengeance, vengeance for that wretched woman to meet an end worthy of her wickedness…”

5

The figure suddenly looked down at Lin Han from the sky and said fiercely, “You, boy. I felt the yearning in your heart as well as your desire for great power. Very well! You shall inherit my inextinguishable Spirit Fire, and exact my revenge on my behalf! Return to the Ancient Land, and kill that woman!”

4

The figure suddenly roared. His voice was bitter and full of monstrous anger.

“Which woman?” Lin Han immediately shouted.

“She’s called the Ice God. She’s the world’s most beautiful and ruthless woman. Her name is Lan Bingyan…” The gigantic figure gradually dispersed as if it was suffering from a great injury, and finally disappeared.

At that time, Lin Han’s consciousness returned to his body.

“Hum!”

The next moment, Lin Han immediately felt the Golden Spirit Fire transmit to him a book of cultivation methods written in gold before it was engraved in his memory.

“Art of the Ancient Dragon Emperor — Immemorial and boundless, the supreme Dragon Emperor, corporeal flesh turns to the divine, immortal and eternal…”

3

Lin Han chanted out loud. From the Golden Spirit Fire, he had obtained an unrivaled ancient cultivation method: the Art of the Ancient Dragon Emperor.

This was the boundless inheritance from the Ancient Dragon Emperor, the only cultivation method that could allow one to reach the supreme divine realm.

“Who would have thought that my fortune would change like this…” Lin Han was first shocked, but he was immediately filled with joy.

A new gate opened in front of him. This warmed Lin Han’s blood and made him want to roar aloud.

However, the task that the Ancient Dragon Emperor entrusted to him before his death made Lin Han’s heart quieten.

Return to the Ancient Land and exact vengeance!

“Where is the Ancient Land? The Ice God, Lan Bingyan, to be able to earn the title of ‘God’, what kind of earth-shattering being is she?”

1

Lin Han thought in his heart. However, he would not forget his gratitude and his fortune in inheriting the Ancient Dragon Emperor’s legacy. He vowed to himself, “Don’t worry, Sir. One day, I will make that ruthless woman who betrayed you regret her decisions!”

2

After composing himself, Lin Han looked at the sky. His body, as strong and healthy as a cheetah, brought him running towards Broken Sky City.

Bang!

Lin Han returned to the house and slammed the door. His heart was filled with excitement. He found that, before he could notice, he had broken through to the second tier.

Furthermore, the Qi-blood and True Qi in his body had become more condensed, and his perception of his surroundings had become more sensitive.

For example, in the room in which Lin Han was currently sitting in, he could clearly see the mosquito legs of a mosquito fifty meters away from him, as well as hear the buzz of a bee one hundred meters away.

2

Lin Han speculated that the burning Golden Spirit Fire in his mind had imperceptibly changed all of his abilities.

“Hahaha! Great!” After going through such a stark transformation, his cultivation had finally broken through to the second tier. Even the taciturn Lin Han could not help but laugh out loud.

“Young Master, it’s time for dinner.” The door suddenly opened, and a pretty maid with bright white teeth entered while holding a wooden tray with several dishes on it.
