Chapter 512: Chapter 62: Three Doors to High Order Perfect Skill! Unlucky Young Master Dan! (8K)_2

"In this high-end game, given my frail condition, I shall refrain from participating."

Knowing these secrets, Mr. Zhao did not plan to take any action.

He merely wanted to reap some benefits and protect those he cared about, such as Old Chen, Long Xiao, and Xia Jing, who were close to him.

In the grand scheme of things, these few were mere ’ants’; the death of one or two ants would not catch the attention of the giants like Great Zhou, the Southern Barbarians, or the sects.

"This counts as another way of stealing the fate decreed by heaven." Zhao Xing thought silently, "In the future predictions I just saw, there were over thirty million scenarios involving Old Chen, and in these scenarios, the old fellow died more than twenty million times."

Yes, Old Chen’s fortune had improved, but with the catastrophe in Ten Suns Cave Heaven, even a fifth-rank official was destined to die; even for Xia Jing and Long Xiao, the possibility of death was three to four times as likely, so it was normal for Old Chen’s probability to be higher.

"Seal!"

Having made his preparations, Zhao Xing wiped his hands across his eyes.

Moments later, his eyes became vacant.

At this time, his memories of Xuantian Sect, the mysterious palace, and Prince Liang from this period gradually faded.

"Hm? Why do I feel like I’ve forgotten something?" Zhao Xing looked at his hands, his brows tightly furrowed.

Moments later, Zhao Xing’s brows relaxed: "I must have foreseen something and consciously chose to forget certain matters."

Zhao Xing found that if he actively resisted this ’forgetting’ force, he could remember.

But, he did not do so, because he guessed that he would not have sealed his own memories for no reason.

"Buzz~"

Just then.

A tiny speck of light suddenly appeared in the starscape, catching Zhao Xing’s attention.

"Hm? Why is someone spying on me again?"

"Eh? Why did I say ’again’?"

Zhao Xing tilted his head, looking towards the stargazer beyond.

The thread was very thin and when magnified, it looked like a black worm, but it bore a dragon’s head.

"Compared to the previous spying, this one is too weak. Hm? Previous?"

Zhao Xing realized the seal was preventing him from recalling, so he stopped dwelling on it.

He carelessly cast [Destiny as Sharp as a Knife].

....

On the way to the Dao Feng Mountain Range, inside Young Master Dan’s tower ship.

Liang Ruohai was staring at the black and white compass, his eyes reflecting a starry sky. Beneath the stars sat a blurry figure in a meditative posture.

"It must be this person who has severed the Young Master’s fate." Liang Ruohai exerted more force, trying to get a clearer view.

However, it seemed as though a barrier existed in front of him, spanning the entire starscape, no matter how he wriggled, he couldn’t penetrate it.

At this moment, the figure under the stars suddenly looked up, tilting its head.

Still unable to see his face clearly, he raised his hand.

"Damn it!" Liang Ruohai sensed danger and immediately tried to end the extrapolation.

However, it was already too late—

"Crack crack crack~"

The jade bones placed on the black and white compass fractured in an instant.

"Bang!"

A floating dragon bone exploded immediately.

"Hiss hiss hiss~" Immediately after, the Black Dragon Blood next to the compass suddenly evaporated.

"Boom~"

The black and white compass directly shattered into pieces.

Yet the backlash that followed was still terrifying!

"Pff~"

Liang Ruohai immediately grabbed a knife and cut off his own right arm, throwing it into the area of the black and white compass.

"Buzz~"

Soundlessly, the entire right arm turned to dust.

However, the backlash was not yet neutralized!

"What? This isn’t enough?" Liang Ruohai gritted his teeth and chopped off his own legs.

"Buzz~"

The legs met the same silently pulverized fate as his right hand.

But, it still wasn’t enough!

"The backlash of destiny seeks my life..." Liang Ruohai sighed, drawing a knife across his chest.

He then uttered the words.

"With my heart’s blood, I pay back the life owed to heaven."

"Gurgle~"

Heart’s blood surged, forming the figure of Liang Ruohai in front of him.

It settled in the area where the black and white compass had shattered.

"Hiss hiss hiss~"

The blood instantly evaporated, disappearing without a trace.

Only then did the backlash finally come to an end.

"Teacher? Teacher!"

Upon hearing the noise, Ji Dan rushed to the viewing platform, and his face changed drastically upon seeing the scene before him.

He quickly rushed forward, supporting the collapsing Liang Ruohai.

"Teacher, what has happened to you?!" Ji Dan was utterly shocked.

At this time, Liang Ruohai had no legs, his right hand was gone, and his face was full of wrinkles with white hair, resembling a dying old man.

It was known that Liang Ruohai was only one hundred and seventy years old, an age considered prime for a fifth-rank official!

How could he have become like this?

Ji Dan touched Liang Ruohai’s wrist, channeling vital energy into his Dantian, and felt his heart chill.

The Dan Tian Qi Cycle in Liang Ruohai was filled with mottled cracks, and the structure of his bones was similar.

Everything seemed to hint that Liang Ruohai was genuinely in an old state, not temporarily afflicted by some poison or spell.

"Teacher, teacher," Ji Dan anxiously shouted, "Someone come, bring all the medicinal materials from the Elixir Storage here!"

To him, Liang Ruohai was the teacher who had been with him the longest. He rarely saw his father, and when he did, it was more the Prince than a father. His father was like a gloomy sea to him.

To Ji Dan, Liang Ruohai was both a teacher and a father figure.

"Young Master, please save your efforts," Liang Ruohai’s voice was hoarse, "I am already at the end of my tether, and can live at most another ten years."

"If it weren’t for my position as a fifth-rank official, with the empire’s protection, I would probably already be dead."

"This kind of backlash cannot be repaired by any elixir."

"Teacher..." Tears streamed from Ji Dan’s eyes; he understood that this was the result of his teacher suffering backlash while divining fate for him.
