The Legend of Min Hong

Others will leave a shard or part of their armor behind, and some have even been known to leave an entire weapon behind…

Thus, in the case of Elder Li and the dark elven ancestor, they both left a miniature tattoo of their images on the ground, and these tattoos covered about 10 miles in size…

Elder Li landed and Little Lin popped out of the staff with an incredulous expression;

"How could it be so powerful?"

"Furthermore, I sensed master's presence within that energy…"

Little Lin asked gazing at their battle ground which was still smoking with due to the scorched earth as well as the lightning snakes which flickered out of existence in her front;

"It also forced me to use that technique…"

Elder Li mentioned before looking towards Little Lin with a solemn expression;

"Little Lin, you have to promise me not to tell another soul about what transpired here today… I am gravely serious here…"

"Not even your master must hear about it, and if not for the fact that I am no longer your master, I would have erased every proof of it from your mind like I did with Little Wu…"

"Unh?"

Little Lin was a little bit stunned at the latter part of Elder Li's statement;

"Yes, I sent a little bit of my divine sense into his soul earlier to erase any memory about what he encountered…"

"This leaves you with a very important task…"

"Whatever you wish, Li…" Elder Li was a little bit stifled at Little Lin's mode of addressing him…

All through their years together, though they had role played a father to daughter relationship, he wouldn't be an ancient expert if he claimed to be oblivious to the fact that Little Lin wanted a romantic relationship, especially after his love passed away in that will crushing 'great war'…

"I will need you to return these statues back to the bridge of ancestors and arrange them like nothing happened…" Elder Li instructed…

"What about the Dark Elven Ancestor's statue?"

"He was a God Realm Immortal Sage, and if these statues were their actual corpse, then it should reform…"

The moment Elder Li made that statement, Little Lin saw how several stones began to roll around, merging into each other, as several sand dusts moved in between the crevices of these stones to give it a smoother structure and surface, and in less than two minutes, another statue of the Dark Elven Ancestor…

Whilst Little Lin shook her head incredulously at the sight, she suddenly remembered the number one weapon on their rankings; the guardian bow;

"Delan, did you sense him… or are you so far away to feel his presence?"

Little Lin spoke with a tinge of melancholy in her tone…

If the value of her love for Elder Li was 100 percent, then her love for her big sister; Delan, was around 1000 percent…

They had been together since the moment they both left the infinite chaos, and have been moving through the infinite cosmos, planes and dimensions together, and as a matter of fact, this was the first time ever that she and her beloved sister wouldn't be in the same plane of existence…

Elder Li vanished from the area whilst Little Lin resumed her clean up duty…

Meanwhile in another part of the 'Realm of Creations'…

It was pitch dark here, but was also intensely holy…

It was like the holiest form of darkness to have ever existed…

This place could soothe the soul and mind…

It was extremely serene, silent and radiated an immense level of aura…

There were massive incomprehensible runes etched on the ground in this pace…

It was like an array of over ten thousand massive runes coming together to form a single gigantic rune…

This massive rune covered at least 10 miles from end to end…

Swoosh!

The sound of an incoming object moving at insane level of speed rang out within this place…

Slam! Rocks and debris flew in every direction as a figure landed here with a superhero landing;

The figure landed just outside the rune and walked all the way to its center, which was something that seemed more like a commandment than respect…

This figure was Elder Li, and after about ten minutes of walking despite how eager he was, Elder Li finally reached the center of the rune, where a structure which looked very much like a fountain which wasn't functioning again stood…

Elder Li stepped closer to the fountain, and the moment he took his first step; it was like a magnetic suction force erupted from that fountain as it began to suck out some life force out of Elder Li;

"By the sacrifice of a century, I seek an audience with the 'great creator'!"

Elder Li bellowed as the fountain sucked with greater force, before shooting what seemed to be a tiny line into the sky…

When this tiny light of multi-colored light reached a certain height, it stopped and; Boom! The air in the area exploded as a portal spun to life on that spot, then;

Kaboom!

A massive pillar of multi-colored light then shot down from within the portal and slammed onto the fountain [See how Heimdall brings all Asgardians back to Asgard...], before the energy from the lights spun together in the same spot to form a figure of someone Min Hong had seen on his return to the cultivation path;

"Why have you summoned me at such a critical hour, Little Li?"

A voice that sounded like the combination of voices from all ages, sexes and specie came out of this figure which had no features, except it's humanoid shape;

"Great one, do you mean you haven't sensed the changes yet?" Elder Li who was on his knees with his face to the floor asked in surprise;

"I have been extremely busy and I think he is about to return…"

"Furthermore, I suspect it to be from the human plane of existence, but there are also changes in the seal of the ancient planes and the power of demons have already begun to leak from the seals…"

"They have begun to spread out, feeding on the fears of the local inhabitants of these planes…"

The multi-colored figure who looked like an entire galaxy in human form spoke once again;

"I hate to spill this to you, great one, but his Sin of Lust has already awakened…" Elder Li blurted in a little fear;

"What!?"

The great creator gasped and in that moment, Elder Li and an area of about 3000 miles around him vanished for a moment before reappearing…

When Elder Li reappeared, he threw up a mouthfuls after mouthfuls of blood and his hair grew significantly white, as he looked about 50 years older…

"How and when did that happen?"

"How come I couldn't sense it?" The great creator asked;

"Th- tha- that- that's-"

As Elder Li was stammering due to having half of his entire life span blasted into oblivion from that single exchange, the great creator simply tapped his forehead, with his pinkie finger, and Elder Li began to recover at a pace visible to the naked eye, and even looked about five years younger than when he fought earlier…

"Speak!" The great creator ordered;

"That's because it has been hiding beneath our nostrils all this while…" Elder Li responded;

"Show me what you have seen!"

The great creator spoke as he stretched his hands towards Elder Li;

"Don't fight it! It will hurt much less that way…"

The moment the great creator made that statement, Elder Li stopped his struggles…

It wasn't like Elder Li was actually resisting in the first place, [After all, it won't make any difference if he did or not], but it was more like his body's natural defense mechanism that being triggered because of the intruder…

[It is similar to the reflex of one's eyelashes when something is about to fly into one's eyes…]

Boom!

Instantly, the body of the great creator began to glitter like mirror, and everything that happened in the past year was witnessed [Yes, not seen… Witnessed!] by the great creator…

"He is growing ever so powerful…" The great creator spoke after he had released Elder Li…

"If just the fragment of the aura of one of his Sin's was powerful enough to wake the statue of Old Xu, then the future is grimmer than I thought…" The great creator added;

"So, what do we do, great one?" Elder Li asked still on his knees and his face looking to the ground…

"The boy obviously doesn't know anything about it for now, and it seems he is trying to completely take over his body…"

"Wouldn't that mean our gamble has backfired?" Elder Li asked after hearing the great creator's statement;

"If the human child should purify that bloodline to its peak and also control those Daos on an Essence Level, that alone would be a disaster, should the sins awaken before the bloodlines of the truth…"

Elder Li spoke in a non-straightforward manner, which was understandable to the great creator;

"That kid is so complicated at this point even I have begun to fear about the future…"

"Perhaps, the prophecy would be fulfilled, and perhaps it would be changed, even I don't know anymore…"

The great creator spoke with a slight sigh which sounded like the wind blowing from the East to the West…

"But at least we still have her on our side…"

Elder Li suddenly found his soul, mind and body become extremely relaxed, as well as his thinking speed skyrocket, as he smiled to himself;

'He's finally relaxed!'

That was one of the relationships between that exists between sovereigns and those that worship them…
