Origin Court: Accepting Disciples With A System

Chapter 182 Wind King Tribe



Cai Hong entered the Void Ground and saw a gigantic palace in front of him. Everyone else who entered at the same time as him all vanished. He was the only person who remained.

“It seems like entering doesn’t guarantee that we’ll all end up in the same place. Moreover, it seems like before I can get any treasures, I have to pass some sort of trial,” Cai Hong said as his eyes narrowed into slits.

In front of him was a palace, golden in color. Some of its parts had a hint of green, and its edges were as sharp as a sword. Even Cai Hong found it difficult to breathe when he saw these characteristics of the palace.

It stood extravagantly and arrogantly like a person, like it had its own personality.

Cai Hong, nevertheless, decided to enter the place for the treasures he sought for His Highness.

As he stepped into the palace’s gates, the entire scene in front of him changed. It was all white. His surroundings became all white. When he tried to use his mental power to check the boundaries of this place, it was actually limitless. It was like there was no end.

“It’s been a long time since someone has entered this palace of mine,” the majestic voice of an old man sounded throughout the entire place. “When was the last time then? I can’t even remember anymore. This old man’s growing old as time passes by. If only I hadn’t defied the rules of the void, I wouldn’t have been sent here to become an Inheritee, someone who passes my inheritance to another person. I wonder who this young friend is this time?”

“Eh? Senior, this junior is merely here to collect treasures,” Cai Hong sincerely said.

But what he said earned the laughter of the old man. “Hahaha! This is something new! From what I can remember, the previous ones who had the same talent as you entered here to inherit my scriptures and gain more in their cultivation—”

“Hey, hey, what the fuck?” The old man was immediately frightened to the core that his voice suddenly faded out and the whole white world turned silent.

The curse, on the other hand, dumbfounded Cai Hong.

After a long while, the voice of the old man suddenly sounded in Cai Hong’s mind.

“Why are you already at the Saint Emperor Realm? Isn’t this the Realm of Da Shikong where I was sent as punishment?” the old man asked. “Moreover, w-why do you have their aura inside you… t-that man…”

“Eh?” Cai Hong was surprised by the old man’s change of attitude. “Senior, I don’t mean any harm. His Highness told me that I should hurt others unless necessary.”

“His Highness?! Such a noble like him is here?! F-Fuck!”

“Huh?” Cai Hong was again taken back. “Senior, do you perhaps know of His Highness? He said that he’s going to enter this place after me. I truly wonder where His Highness has gone to.”

“Fuck!!!”

Cai Hong then sighed. “Senior, you kept saying ‘fuck’ without answering my question. How am I supposed to understand?”

“It’s not that I want to tell you… I just c-can’t…”

“Why is it so, senior?” Cai Hong tilted his head to the side, his eyes looking at the white surroundings.

“Everyone who is an Inheritee or the guardians of this place has signed a contract that we are forbidden to say anything about ‘them’ or ‘that’ place. All I can say is that you must come from that family or a family servant of some sort—the reason why you have that aura of that man with you.”

“I still don’t understand, senior,” Cai Hong replied. “However, if the senior couldn’t tell this junior of anything he knew because he was prohibited from doing so, this junior understands.”

Cai Hong then heard a sigh from the old man.

“Anyway, my inheritance for you is useless at your cultivation level. However, you may inherit my scripture. Do you comprehend the rules of the wind? I have a scripture with me here that is wind by nature. It might be able to help you a lot. After all, I am a void human that is specialized in the wind.”

“Truly?” Cai Hong, who did initially expect something good—his eyes were sparkling. After a while, he realized something was amiss. He was too happy about it, not knowing about the ‘scripture’ the old man told him about.”

“Truly,” the old man replied, his tone appearing amiable.

“But benefits in this world are not easily acquired without incurring painful measures.” Cai Hong’s tone suddenly changed. “Moreover, I am not even sure what a scripture is. Tell me, why did you defy the rules of the void? How did you get here?”

Regarding the change in Cai Hong’s tone, the old man simply laughed it off. “Brat, you are not so easily deceived. However, based on what you said to me, you didn’t know that you came from the void, right?”

“What if I don’t? What can you do to me? His Highness is on his way here. He’s more than capable of scaring you to death,” Cai Hong said, his voice filled with confidence. “Old thing, stop pretending. My instincts are telling me you are dangerous.”

“This kid…” The old man sounded speechless. “If I wanted to do something to you, I would’ve already done so. Moreover, my strength in this realm was simply suppressed to your level. Even if I fight you, I still can’t kill you.”

“Even if you don’t fight me or act on your plot against me now, it still remains suspicious what you’re going to do when I lower my guard down,” Cai Hong said, his face nonchalant, looking at the white environment.

Although it was white, he was not blinded by the brightness of the color.

HAAAH.

The old man felt very helpless with Cai Hong’s cautious personality. Simply because he was really unable to do anything to the kid. More likely than that, the person behind this kid—the one he was calling His Highness—was ultimately not someone he could afford to offend.

“Kid, I am really not planning something against you. I simply wish for someone to carry on my legacy. As for the thing I did in the void to be exiled from that place, I also wished to tell you about it, but it contained the details of that place. If I tell you about it, the one who created this world would be able to tell whether or not we have gone against our contract.”

“There’s a creator of this world?” Cai Hong gasped in surprise. “Could it be His Highness? No, His Highness is still so young. How could he create this world at such a young age? Moreover, I am even older than him.”

“Kid, you don’t know the creator of this world. He is simply someone who created heaven and earth, the Supreme Creator of all living things. If someone dares to defy his rules, they will be punished.”

“That’s how powerful he is?”

“His rules of creation are absolute in a world he himself created. This is the reason why my cultivation is suppressed to this much, although I am probably much stronger than those who are in the upper realms.”

“Upper realms? Is it what the master told me about? Are there really upper realms?”

“Yes, kid. There are indeed upper realms. There are even other worlds other than the Five Realms.”

“What the…” Cai Hong felt like he had been living under the rocks for a million years. It was one thing to know that there were upper realms; it was another to learn about the other worlds outside of the Five Realms.

“Kid, you may not undergo my trial. After all, it would be very easy for you to acquire my inheritance even if you did so,” the old man interrupted.

Sooner, a stream of energy entered Cai Hong’s mind, which made him fall into a trance. “What is t-this, art…”

“Boy, that’s not an art. What I imparted to you is simply much more precious than an art.”

“Was it the scripture you told me?” Cai Hong let out a breath and tried to calm himself after finding out how strong the scripture he had acquired was. “Senior…” He changed the way he called the old man again. “This is too precious. Why would you give it to someone like me?”

“As I’ve said, kid, I’m unable to leave this place under the supervision of this ground’s guardians. I simply don’t want my scriptures to be left in the river of souls, without anyone inheriting them. If you go to that place, you may find my tribe. There, you can seek shelter under them. I just hope they’re still alive.”

“What tribe, senior?”

“The Wind King Tribe. It was a tribe I created and founded. I wonder how they are doing now,” the old man said, his voice sounding longing. “If you find them in danger, can you help them? If you are truly unable to do so, you may not as well. Only if you have the power can I allow you. You’re a talented young man. I can’t let you endanger yourself for my tribe.”

“Wind King Scripture?”

“You’ve grasped it quicker than I thought. Now that this old man has finished his business—”

“Wait, senior! Do you have any treasures?! Something that can entice a dragon!”

Cai Hong suddenly remembered that dragons like His Highness with the dragon emperor bloodline like to collect shiny treasures. He thought that His Highness should have several shiny treasures in his treasury. He simply wanted to be praised.

Compared to the nonchalant and on-guard expression Cai Hong had earlier, the old man was speechless seeing the sparkling eyes of Cai Hong.
