Rise of Myriad Magic Emperor

Kai looked at Leo and Ludura.

"It seems you are finally here kid? Come follow me. You are the only one remaining."

Leo looked at Ludura with hesitation. Who nodded in return.

Seeing this Leo followed Kai, walking to the floating stone platform behind him.

Placing his foot on the first floating stone leading to the circular floating stone platform. He felt a change in the space around him and looked around and found that he is surrounded by fog and can not see anything aside from the Stone step. Suddenly memories of Vali's most desperate moments started flowing into his mind.

He finally understood the intention behind the creation of his steps. Not only does his place dig out the most sensitive memories of a person's life but also connect different times and dimensions with each other.

Though Vali's memories kept surfacing in his mind, Kai's emotions were not affected much. Instead, he was enjoying the process and witnessed the beginning journey of Vali during the dark ages and his insight of the path of the sword as well as the creation of aura cultivation which he created to surpass the limits of individual strength. It was also the time Vali felt most powerless and his inability to protect the people around him.

He can not understand why the trial draws out Vali memories instead of his own, his only guess is that it's related to the sword stabbed in the throne.

Kai continued to walk step by step towards the platform with a calm expression and finally arrived ten meters before the throne and bumped into a transparent barrier made out of divine power stopping him from going further and touched it with his hands and closed his eyes to understand the way to enter inside.

Leo, who was behind him, also caught up to him with red eyes and tears at the corners of his eyes.

Walking up the stairs, he was reminded of his childhood memories and the time he spent with his late grandfather.

With little life experience of him, he didn't have many memorable sad moments in his life but it still had brought a great change in his mental state after two continuous tests of willpower and mental endurance.

Leo hauled his steps and rubbed his eyes and looked curiously at Kai trying to understand. Why he had suddenly stopped moving forward and waving his hand in mid-air. 

With his newfound confidence and little nervousness he gradually walked beside Kai.

"Sir, Evaron what are you doing? Is there any danger before us?" asked Leo

Kai glimpsed at him and smiled profoundly, "Try to place your hand forward. You will understand, why had I suddenly stopped moving forward."

Leo looked at him for a moment and lifted his hand and to his astonishment, he felt a solid invisible wall and looked at Kai who had a sly smile on his face and looked at him.

Suddenly Leo's expression turned to horror and looked at Kai in despair.

"Ahhhhhhh..."

A painful scream comes out of his mouth as his body slowly submerged into the barrier and disappeared from the world.

Kai expression turned serious while he looks before his eyes and finds the unconscious body of Leo floating on the other side of the barrier surrounded by a mysterious holy light slowly turned into a six feet tall handsome man with long blonde hair with oceanic blue eyes and a shining silver-plated, his every movement was elegant and in harmony with the rhythm of the world, radiating a saintly noble aura.

Kai frowned upon seeing the man. It was a spiritual will hidden deep within Leo family bloodline.

When Kai had first placed his hand on the barrier he had already felt a special connection between him and the sword, which was resonating with him and his desire to be free from the shakes of the throne.

According to Vali memories, which had surfaced in his mind. It was him who had personally placed a seal by using the power of heaven during the time he was slowly getting corrupted by the negative faith power and decided to draw out all his aura cultivation and form the sword to seal his aura cultivation away.

Naturally being a part of Vali and Kai sharing the same existence like him. The sword has already recognised him and wants to return to his source.

Another issue was very simple, being able to resonate with the sword, he wanted to use the supreme king aura to reconstruct Leo's body from deep inside slowly and steadily.

Yet, to his surprise as soon as Leo put his hand on the barrier. He was able to see through the mystery of the seal placed on Leo bloodline and understood it was more than simple and probably was the reason the ancient Holy Emperor got reincarnated in his family bloodline. Not daring to take any risk in his sealed cultivation state. Kai decided to directly put his body into the barrier.

Inside the barrier, the blonde man turned to look at Kai with his deep and profound eye with endless charm and ability to suck a person's soul.

"Who are you?" asked the man with a deep arrogant voice. The language he spoke didn't belong to the current era but Kai was familiar with it. After all, it is his mother tongue.

Kai did not bother to reply and instead observed him from head to feet silently.

The man was displeased with Kai's attitude and his way of observing him. He felt like he was standing naked with all his secrets fully open before the unknown man standing before him. Even when he was alive. There were only a few who could make him feel uncomfortable with their graze.

Kai's lips curled up arrogantly, "Is it not rude to ask others to introduce themselves before themselves, Holy Emperor Seagray Lunar."

Hearing his name coming out of the person from the current era, the Holy Emperor was surprised and alarmed.

"You know my name? Do you then understand what kind of person you are standing before and dare not kneel in worship?"

"Bla blah blah blah. Do you really think so? You are not the holy Emperor. You are only his soul fragment which he had merged with his bloodline millions of years ago. Not to mention a soul fragment. Even if the Holy Emperor himself was before me. It would be him who will be kneeling before me." said Kai with a smile.
