The Adventures Of The Young Master

The moth overlord felt scared for the first time in its life. All along, it was the one who instill fear to others. But now, it never expected to experience the same thing. Nevertheless, it didn\'t let its emotions show on its face. After all, it would be more disadvantageous to the overlord.

Windking, on the other hand, was also shocked. He knew that Jin Rou was strong, yet he didn\'t expect him to be this strong! Was Jin Rou an old living fossil in disguise of a young man?

That shouldn\'t be possible. He had good eyes and could determine if a person was using a fake body. It\'s possible, too, that his eyes weren\'t good enough to see through Jin Rou\'s disguise. He\'s very glad that the Wind Gate didn\'t offend a monster of this level that could even push an overlord into a corner!

"If you still have more cards to play, I suggest you use it now." Jin Rou withdraw the sword energy and spoke calmly. His eyes contained the myriads of worlds as he looked at the overlord..

"Who are you?" The overlord had no choice but to acknowledge Jin Rou\'s power so he asked in grim tone, "I have known Immortal for so long, yet I have not heard a single person who used that kind of sword forms."

"I\'m just a mere passerby, not worthy of being remembered or mentioned." Jin Rou smiled, "But your guess is correct. I am not from this Immortal. I came from a far away place, unknown to your world."

"There are more worlds other than this?" The overlord was surprised to hear this. It was confirmed by many peak existences that other than the realm where darkness reigns, there was no other world existing so far. Many existences had traveled billions to trillions of miles just to discover nothingness.

Yet, there was a distant world that they haven\'t discovered yet? Of course, it wouldn\'t be possible to discover it as the Creator separated the True State Universe and the universe where Immortal currently was.

"Alright, I have said enough. Shall we continue?" Jin Rou didn\'t bother answering the overlord\'s question.

"No, I have already lost." The moth overlord clearly knew that it stood no chance against Jin Rou. All it could do was to admit its defeat with pride, "Kill me."

Mortheus knew that it couldn\'t escape death as it tried to kill Jin Rou as well. It was a battle to the death, to begin with and clearly, he lost.

"By admitting defeat, I can give you two choices." Jin Rou spoke with a very calm tone like he already expected this, "I can kill you but it wouldn\'t be quick, or you kill yourself with a quick method."

Billions of innocent people had died in this overlord\'s hands. Of all the seven, the moth overlord was perhaps the worst. Since the other party attacked on his own accord, Jin Rou killing it would be a mere self defense. It might break the balance a bit, but it won\'t affect the overall situation.

"I guess I have no need to answer it." The moth overlord smirked and crushed its heart and palace. Then, its body turned limp and fell towards the black sea. It was a swift act of suicide. It didn\'t even hesitate to kill itself. There was no chance of revival for the overlord. After all, it crushed its heart and palace, the most vital things for a cultivator like Mortheus.

And just like that, an overlord was killed. It had been a long while since the last attempt to slay an overlord yet everyone failed except Jin Rou.

"Young Friend Jin, if you didn\'t say you aren\'t from this world, I would surely assume that you might be a Sage." Windking walked over and joked around to ease up the tension.

"A Sage?" Jin Rou was confused.

"Ah, they are the equal beings of the overlords of Immortal. They are called Sages. They will only show up if the overlords dared to intervene in the worldly matters of Immortal." Windking explained.

The Sages could be called the true guardians of the world. They were the biggest reason why the overlords didn\'t dare to touch Immortal brazenly. They could only cook up little to minor skirmishes in between so that the Sages wouldn\'t be alarmed. After all, if an all out battle broke out, both sides would suffer severe casualties and deaths would be in vain.

"I see. If there are Sages, then why do you seek help to the Overlords? You can just ask the Sages to help you repel the incoming darkness." Jin Rou asked.

"We have already sent them a letter and I don\'t know how will they respond. Unlike the Overlords with consistent nests, the Sages are so hard to find. They usually don\'t entertain outsiders." Windking sighed. If not for the current predicament they were in, he wouldn\'t even bother to ask help to an overlord. After all, they were a part of darkness as a whole.

"I see." Jin Rou nodded and fully understood the reason, "Is there any other possible way to contact a Sage?"

"I have already sent a letter to one of the Sages, but I don\'t know if that person has received it already or not." Windking shook his head, "Aside from sending a letter, there is no other plausible way of contacting them."

"How many Sages are there?" Jin Rou asked.

"Currently, there are four living Sages and they are scattered in the whole Immortal. No one knows where they are and not even us perfect immortals have the slightest idea." Windking answered. Just imagine, sending a letter to that person had already costed him so much resources.

Windking paused for a moment and said, "But I know that they will aid the Immortal. It is their home, after all. They will show up since this is a calamity that could destroy the whole world."

"I\'m very curious about these Sages. I want to meet them." Jin Rou smiled. It was true that he was curious about them.

"It\'s impossible, Young Friend Jin." Windking sighed again, "They are very secretive of their whereabouts and no one has an idea of where they are."
