Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Jing Ming didn’t know what had happened in between.

However, the final result was that by the time Jing Ming came out of seclusion, his original Practitioner partner had already disappeared without a trace.

For that reason, Jing Ming began to search like a madman.

In the end, he still found no clues.

In the end, Jing Ming returned to his family, feeling disheartened.

Coincidentally, he met a disciple from the previous damsel in distress’ family who had come to discuss a marriage alliance.

In the end, Jing Ming also agreed to the marriage.

However, the world was always full of surprises.

Just as Jing Ming was about to get married, he suddenly met a fellow Daoist.

This fellow Daoist was from the same batch of cultivators who joined the Spirit Sword Sect as Jing Ming.

Initially, Jing Ming was very happy that the other party could come.

However, the opponent dealt a critical hit to Jing Ming.

The other party had told him that Jing Ming’s original Practitioner partner had not left on her own, but had been forced away by his family.

She was even pregnant when she left.

Jing Ming went crazy on the spot.

He began to ask about the whereabouts of his former Practitioner partner

However, he was told that the other party had already gone to the Lower Realm. As for where she went, he did not know.

The old-time friend had only chosen this time to ask Jing Ming for an explanation because they could not stand Jing Ming’s behavior of abandoning his wife to climb up the social ladder.

Faced with the other party’s question, Jing Ming didn’t make excuses.

Instead, he turned around and asked the Xu family.

Then, under his interrogation, the Xu family also told him the situation.

They said that they did that for Jing Ming’s own good.

As long as Jing Ming could establish a relationship with a super-class family, he would be able to reach the Nascent Fusion Stage in the future, let alone the Ethereal Stage.

However, they still underestimated the relationship between Jing Ming and his original Practitioner partner.

Knowing that his Practitioner partner left without saying goodbye because of his family, in his anger, Jing Ming cut off all contact with his family.

As for the young lady from the super first-rate family, she naturally became the victim of this farce.

After that, Jing Ming returned to the Spirit Sword Sect in despair.

In order to fill the guilt and emptiness in his heart, Jing Ming put all his attention on the cultivation of his Swordsmanship.

Perhaps it was because of his outstanding talent, or perhaps it was because he had become fully focused on the cultivation of Swordsmanship.

As a result, Jing Ming’s final cultivation level soared to the sky and improved astonishingly.

In 500 years, he had reached the Apotheosis Stage.

In the following 500 years, Jing Ming also displayed an extremely high talent in Swordsmanship.

In the end, he became an outer sect elder of the Spirit Sword Sect and an inner sect true disciple of the Spirit Sword Sect.

Just when Jing Ming thought that he would only be with the sword for the rest of his life…

He realized that this small world seemed to be the place where his Practitioner partner had come to.

Although it had been a thousand years since the incident happened, and his Practitioner partner had definitely fallen, Jing Ming still felt guilt toward Xu Wan’er.

The relationship between Xu Wan’er and him was perhaps that of an ancestor and great-granddaughter.

However, Jing Ming could still vaguely see the shadow of his former Practitioner partner in Xu Wan’er.

The appearances of both parties were at least 40% similar.

That was also why Jing Ming felt that Xu Wan’er was a little familiar when he saw her for the first time.

If Lu Yuan knew about this, he would definitely exclaim that he finally knew the source of Xu Wan’er’s luck.

So the little girl was the descendant of a big shot who was wandering outside!

Considering that, it was understandable that Xu Wan’er had over a thousand luck despite having no cultivation at all at the beginning.

With an Apotheosis Stage ancestor who felt guilty about Xu Wan’er, it was not an exaggeration to say that she, Xu Wan’er, could do whatever she wanted in the Lower Realm.

If Lu Yuan additionally knew about the relationship between Jing Ming and Xu Wan’er…

He would also know where the uneasiness in his heart came from.

Who would be willing to let their precious little princess follow a Lower Realm bumpkin?

That was right. In the eyes of an Apotheosis Stage big shot like Jing Ming, a Lower Realm heavenly pride amounted to nothing much.

There were eighty-one small worlds like the Moongazer Serpent.

And every 300 years, more than ten heavenly prides from each small world went to the Upper Realm.

In other words, there would be more than 800 to 1,000 similar prodigies every 300 years.

It might not seem like much, but one must not forget that the size of an Upper Realm was as big as 30 to 40 small worlds.

Not to mention, whether it was the concentration of spiritual energy or the grade of the way of the heavens in the Upper Realm, they were not comparable to the Lower Realm.

Therefore, every 300 years, there would be at least 7,000 to 8,000 heavenly prides like those in the Lower Realm.

If those people were scattered throughout the entire Upper Realm, they would actually be quite rare.

However, if they were to be concentrated within the three major sects, each sect would have at least 3,000 new heavenly prides a year.

Therefore, a one-patterned way of the heavens golden core was the lowest grade in the Spirit Sword Sect; a two-patterned way of the heavens golden core was barely passable; a three-patterned way of the heavens golden core was not bad; a four-patterned way of the heavens golden core was outstanding.

Only those with five-patterned way of the heavens golden cores and above could attract the attention of the Spirit Sword Sect.

And if one reached the seven-patterned way of the heavens golden core… Then one would be the most precious disciple of the Spirit Sword Sect, and the future of the entire Spirit Sword Sect would be theirs!

That was because, in the history of the Spirit Sword Sect, there had only been four peerless geniuses with a seven-patterned way of the heavens golden cores.

As for the legendary nine-patterned way of the heavens golden core, it was a golden core that only existed in the history of the Upper Realm.

The highest record of the way of the heavens patterns that Core Formation Stage cultivators attained was eight-patterned.

Unfortunately, the peerless monster with an eight-patterned way of the heavens golden core was so talented that he was targeted and killed by an Apotheosis Stage expert and many Nascent Soul Stage experts during an expedition.

However, the way of the heavens golden core could not fully represent a cultivator’s potential.

For example, Jing Ming’s three-patterned way of the heavens golden core could only be considered ordinary in the Spirit Sword Sect.

However, his talent in Swordsmanship was surprisingly terrifying, so his overall achievements were not few.

The more patterns a golden core had, the more advantageous it was among those of the same level.

However, the advantage wasn’t big enough to cause a qualitative change.

Back then, the monster with the eight-patterned way of the heavens golden core could only defeat an opponent a stage higher.

As a Core Formation Stage Sixth Level, they defeated and killed many experts at the seventh and eighth levels of the Nascent Soul Stage.

However, facing an Apotheosis Stage opponent, although the peerless genius could somewhat protect himself, he was still killed on the spot in the end.

Jing Ming waited for Xu Wan’er to finish her first round before quietly appearing beside her.

Xu Wan’er was shocked when she saw Jing Ming suddenly appear.

“Who are you?” As Xu Wan’er spoke, she silently took out many sword orbs from her storage bag.

With one look, Xu Wan’er knew that something was wrong and immediately took action.

It seemed that the child must have suffered a lot to be so cautious.

Jing Ming looked at Xu Wan’er even more kindly when he thought of that.

At that moment, Xu Wan’er felt a wave of doubt in her heart after seeing Jing Ming’s gaze.

Xu Wan’er didn’t know why, but she felt a sense of familiarity in the man’s eyes.

“And you are?”

Faced with Xu Wan’er’s question, Jing Ming answered honestly, “I am your ancestor.”

Jing Ming thought that Xu Wan’er would be confused and continue asking questions.

Alternatively, she might believe his words and put on a touching scene of an ancestor-descendant meeting.

However, in reality, Xu Wan’er’s face darkened as soon as Jing Ming said those words. Xu Wan’er even attacked.

He looked like a normal person, but the words that came out of his mouth were absurd.

“It’s impossible for me to have an ancestor like you!” thought Xu Wan’er.

Furious, Xu Wan’er threw three crimson flying swords straight at Jing Ming’s face from a tricky angle.

It was obvious that she wanted his life.

However, the three flying swords eventually stopped in front of Jing Ming, unable to advance.

Then, Xu Wan’er realized that her body seemed to have been frozen.

No matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t control her body.

Jing Ming looked at Xu Wan’er and said with a smile, “Girl, you’ve misunderstood. I’m not taking advantage of you. I’m really your ancestor, the kind of ancestor that has blood relations..”
