《Path of the Invincible Dragon》Chapter 85: Young Lord of Deity Mountain
Advertisement
At the same time Mwana and Kia were checking out the spell cards, part of the shipment that arrived with the 3 Ignition Cores was also brought over to the same section. At this point some more people started gathering around the spell card section to see what the new goods were.
Although Mwana and Kia already bought what they wanted, they also decided to stick around and see what the fuss was all about.
“A Supreme Rank Spell Card!”
Someone could not help but exclaim when the package that had been brought over was opened.
The first thing to be revealed was the [Shattering Void Eye] spell card. Just its design alone was already a tier above all the other cards. The card had the image of an eye drawn in intricate golden magical patterns. This was a card that directly impacted the user’s abilities allowing them to see through all manner of illusions and disguises.
The next card to be revealed was not shabby either. It was a double element spell card: the [Rise of the Sun] card which was Fire & Light element spell card.
Apart from these two cards, 3 more Supreme Rank spell cards were revealed, these were:
[Heavenly Mirror Card] – This spell card had the ability to mirror the user’s consciousness.
[Phoenix Flame Card] – This card had the power to heal the physical body through the power of Phoenix Nirvana.
[Soul Recovery Card] – As for this card, it was extremely rare and valuable as it could heal soul injuries.
While all these cards were displayed openly, supreme rank magical items could not be bought in the Zika world. Instead, they could only be battered for items of similar value.
For instance, when the treasure house worker revealed the card they elaborated that the Shattering Void Eye card could only be exchanged for a Dragon Fruit. This fruit was an extremely valuable natural resource. Even in the real world, a dragon fruit is a fruit with endless health benefits. It is expensive both in the farm and on the shelf. In the same manner, the dragon fruits of the Zika world were similar to their real world counterparts only that they were further bathed in magic and the natural mystical forces of the world.

As for the other 4 cards, the worker mentioned that they could only be exchanged for a Vitality-fortifying potion or Innate Spiritual extract. Naturally, both these items were extremely valuable as they could nourish the body’s vitality and refresh the soul.
“If you have any of these treasures, you can exchange them for the cards. The cards this time have power related to the mind, soul, and vitality so naturally the treasure house will batter them for treasures of the same kind.”
After the server made this statement, Mwana was sure that no one would offer anything. After all, this was just too expensive. This was beyond the level of ‘ordinary rich’ but alas! He was proven wrong as right behind him he heard a voice ask to batter for the soul recovery card.
Mwana, Kia, and everyone else at the scene including the worker, all turned back in shock. In their sights was a young man who was probably not even 14 yet. His way of dress could only be described as regal: with a multicolored robe, jewelry made of precious gems, and headgear made of colorful rare feathers. His entire attire screamed, ‘RICH!!!!!’
“Don't even ask. Here is the extract.”
Before the worker could even ask if the young boy had the Innate Spiritual Extract to exchange for the soul recovery card, the boy had already answered. He pulled out a small glass bottle out of thin air and handed it to the worker while the latter stood frozen in place. Usually, the treasure house worker had never seen supreme rank items exchanged so easily. From this one exchange, the worker would definitely earn a hefty commission.
Mwana and Kia were shocked witnessing the actions of this moneybag that did not seem all that much older than them.

“Young Lord of Deity Mountain!”
As the exchange was going on, someone in the crowd seemed to have recognized the boy and blurted out his name. Hearing his title called, the young man only turned and nodded before collecting the spell card and walking towards the higher floors of the treasure house where the Ignition Cores had been taken.
Mwana was shocked to learn the identity of this boy; this was someone who a lot of the young boys in Toro would know. As for Kia, she did not know anything at all about the young heroes of Toro. After all, she had only been in Toro for a few weeks at most. Mwana went ahead to explain to Kia about some of the young heroes of Toro. Some were so famed that they ended up in an official ranking called the Young Hero Ranking.
The Young Lord of Deity Mountain also had another title: The "Martial Breaker" Katana Vuma. This was not just an empty title. Just like Sama Jire the “Untouchable” who showcased his divine skill by even dodging the attacks of General Rank combatants, Katana Vuma was famed for similarly insane martial arts feats.
The “Martial Breaker” title came from the fact that Katana could break his opponents’ martial arts within 10 exchanges! No exceptions! To this day, he had never even failed once no matter how powerful or complex the martial art was. Whether it was fist arts, sword moves, military boxing, spearmanship, etcetera, it was all useless before him. Analyzing and finding the weaknesses of martial arts then exploiting those weaknesses was his forte.
Katana had once made the declaration that, “There is no martial art that I cannot triumph over,” and to this day, he was yet to be proven wrong. Although he flaunted his name as the most technical martial artist in his generation, no one could complain as none of his challengers had ever managed to last more than 10 exchanges when sparring against him.
Right after Katana Vuma ascended to the higher floors of the Jia Treasure House, a commotion occurred at the entrance as many carriages, transportation magic beasts, and people piled up. All these people were here for the 3 Ignition Cores that had been taken to the 3rd floor.
Among these people were representatives of the 10 Masters of Milele, as well as the servants of the town’s 3 Supreme beings who surpassed even the 10 masters: The Paragons. Apart from the servants and workers of Milele’s influential people, there were people from the external settlements and neighboring towns. In fact, there were even some big shots from all over Toro sandwiched among this group especially as the Grandmaster’s Magic Competition was about to commence. Chaos was about to ensue in this town.
What once used to be a friendly exchange between young magicians had turned into a wolves’ rumble once the Grandmaster upped the rewards for this event to the point of making even peak level Masters salivate. Whatever the old wizard was planning, no one knew.

Paths of the Chosen (Rewritten, Revised, and Reinvigorated)
Daniel Stewart was chosen to alpha test a brand new Immersive VR game, "The Realms". What he doesn't know is that he has also been Chosen by one of the Powers of a far-off world, and is now a pawn in a game much bigger than any he thought he would ever participate in. Will he survive and thrive in this strange new world, or will he stumble and fall, shattered by the ambitions of another? Does he have what it takes to walk the Paths of the Chosen?---Inspired by the Chaos Seeds novels, TheDespaxas's The Gamer, and a wide variety of games and books, although the world, characters, and systems are my own. Expect high fantasy, magic, combat and intrigue, love and loss, grief and passion. This story is intended for adult audiences and contains explicit sexual content, profanity, and violence (including sexual violence, although not by the protagonist and not as a focus of the story). Chapters with such content will be clearly marked, and all explicit sexual content will be behind spoiler tags. I prefer my stories to have happy endings, and especially in these uncertain times, I feel that it is important to maintain hope. While this tale will reach some dark places, I promise to you that, when all is said and done, the villains will be justly punished and the heroes will prevail and prosper. Remember: it is darkest before dawn, but dawn always comes. Please note also that although this story does not have the [Harem] tag, it does have an extremely slow build into a polyamorous relationship. Additionally, starting with Champion (book two of the series), the [Multiple Lead Characters], [Female Lead], and [Non-Human Lead] tags would also apply to varying degrees.This is a complete, ground-up rewrite of the original Paths of the Chosen, following feedback from here and elsewhere. It is now written in the third-person limited omniscient perspective and in the past tense. In addition, while the major plot beats are unchanged, most of what comes between them has been reconsidered and rewritten, with pacing and characterization as a special focus.---Update schedule: 2 chapters per week (Monday and Thursday), not counting bonus chapters. Chapter length is roughly 2,500 words on average, +/- 1,000 words. Chapters with explicit content tend to be longer so that they are still worth reading for those who would prefer a fade to black. --- Cover art by Agri Karuniawan (@artofagri).
