《Primordial Cultivator》Desolate Era
Advertisement
In the desolate era where many cultivators ascended into an unimaginable realm, the world was thrown into turmoil.
Intense fights happen every day as they all struggle to become the ultimate ruler of the world.
It was only when the profound qi in the world started to decrease because it couldn't supply the amount of spiritual qi that cultivators need.
Thus, after millions of death, they have ceased fighting as they strived to split the sky and ascend to a higher world. A world that can supply their thirst for more power.
However, some were incapable of handling the tribulation to ascend as they remained in this world in the hope that their master would descend back to help them.
Old Ling was that type of cultivator that remained in this world to take care of the herb garden until his master descended back.
"Sigh, enough of my reminiscing, the desolate era is the past already and I have decided to dedicate my life to this herb garden. So, would you accept my condition or you prefer to stay here forever." Old Ling said as he increased his aura.
The air became compressed and breathing became difficult but it was only there for a split second before Old Ling stopped his pressure.
"I'll accept the condition, let's start." Elder Jing said as she got in a position to fight Old Ling even if the chance is slim.
To fight against someone from the desolate era who has many experiences during the chaotic period is akin to a child fighting an adult.
"Haha, you have good enthusiasm in your heart but unfortunately, you can't fight me. Not because I'm looking down on you but the poison in your body will prevent your fighting capability." Old Ling said as he detected the poison embedded in Elder Jing's body.

'Elder Jing is poisoned.' Yang Wei stares at Elder Jing who looks healthy on the outside but she was poisoned.
'Is this the reason why she's so eager to come here to gather herbs and concocting pills to save her life?' Yang Wei wondered in his mind when he found out this secret.
A secret that he would never know if it weren't for Old Ling exposing her in front of him.
"Tch, very unnecessary of you to say that aloud even if you're a senior." Elder Jing said with a glaring expression on her face.
She didn't want anyone to know about her condition and wished to keep everything to herself but everything is ruined now.
"Hoh, my mistakes, I didn't know that little boy was ignorant about your condition. As an apology, I shall let you know a way to cure it." Old Ling stroked his beard as he laughed heartily.
'This old man definitely did it on purpose.' Elder Jing gritted her teeth when she saw his nonchalant attitude but kept her emotion because he knows something that she needed at this moment.
"Senior know the cure for this poison in my body?" Elder Jing said to confirm that she could be cured.
The poison is unknown to her and the best she tried to do was concocting a Middle Sky Grade poison detoxifying pill which is known as the cure for all poison.
However, she wasn't 100 percent sure that it would work and was just gambling since this pill requires extremely rare herbs that could not be found in the market.
Even if it's found, they will be auctioned or sold at a price that she could not afford since many influential people will purchase it with their immense wealth.

"Of course, the poison in your body is most likely from a toxin by Purple Scorpion beasts. They are known for their poison that seeped deep inside a cultivator's body and any Core Formation or below cultivators will die instantly." Old Ling casually explained where Elder Jing poison comes from like it's nothing.
Meanwhile, Yang Wei had a grave expression when he heard all these details since he believed Elder Jing is powerful enough to not get injured casually.
Thinking about the past event when he entered this mystery realm and seeing how sensitive Elder Jing was when she thought he was trying to do something to her.
Yang Wei got the gist of what happened in her past before becoming a sect elder in this third-rate sect.
'Someone tried to violate her by someone she trusted and she escaped successfully but poisoned in the meantime.'
Yang Wei clenched his fist when he finally figured out the picture.
Elder Jing noticed the change in Yang Wei and sigh as he was smart to deduct the situation based on a few hints.
"That's right senior, someone I trusted betrayed me with others and tried to violate me before finishing me off. To escape, I used all my power but I still got poisoned by a dagger while running away. I thought it was just some normal poison but it wasn't."
Elder Jing starts explaining a bit of her past while trying hard to control her emotions. The feeling of being betrayed by someone you trusted your back with is not an easy thing to forget.
Yang Wei at this time held Elder Jing's hand slowly to let her know that her eyesight was not wrong the second time.
"Don't worry Elder Jing, I'm not some ungrateful person that would backstab an ally. That person who betrayed you, let's pay him back tenfold for what he did to you." Yang Wei said solemnly as he held her tightly.
Elder Jing turned her focus to Yang Wei when she felt some warmth in her hand for the first time.
Yang Wei's eye was crystal clear and determined to complete his promise about getting revenge for her.
Although Yang Wei doesn't know why he did this action, his heart is simply telling him to not let this incident slide and have Elder Jing continue to suffer alone.
If it weren't for Elder Jing's help, Yang Wei would still be an outer disciple without any power nor knowledge of most stuff.
It was Elder Jing who gave Yang Wei two techniques that could not be found anywhere and an opportunity to become an alchemist which no one else can accomplish without a proper teacher.
Elder Jing's eye became a bit teary and emotional for not mistaking Yang Wei. 'He is definitely different from most youths and is one who would return his favor.'
"What a beautiful chemistry between you two? Seeing you like that, I thought you became a couple and made love already. However, to cure her poison requires the herbs available here, and the only way to get it is to pass my three tests." Old Ling laughs aloud and interrupts the lovely atmosphere between them.

A world where he's stuck in a game like setting. Sign him up! Except that Lazarus found himself stuck in a cave with nothing but glowing crystals and the skittering of rats. And according to the glowing blue box he'd been affected by unforeseen circumstances and transported to the world of Zara. What the hell was that?! He didn't like caves at all! He didn't get any powers! Only this blue box fixed in front of him... Hello this book will be a lit-rpg in a fantasy world. It will be primarily action and adventure. I dislike characters who get tied down and suckered, so if your looking for kingdom building or large interpersonal relations this isn't it. There will be some but it won't be the focus. He will be somewhat of an antihero but more in the sense that Lazarus will be free. I'm not the most experienced writer, but I would love feedback to improve. Thank you for reading!
8 190Tale of Tales
* Tale of Tales is a High/Epic Fantasy saga based on the motifs of ancient myths, legends, and forgotten fairytales * Senka is no hero, but you never know what is coming for you. And if that burns down your house and family, while you are left blinded by your house’s guardian snake, the outlook becomes grim. So Senka clings to her dog’s back to survive, unaware of the fateful prophecy and the great changes to come. But when a wandering warrior becomes her protector and mysterious strangers join their hounded party through a series of seemingly chance encounters, they all begin to discover that all is not as it seems. What is pursuing her? And why? Can the strange characters gathering around her on her desperate quest save her from doom? Are they mere puppets of a young, beguiling witch guided by her own hidden motives, or are forgotten shadows rising again from the immeasurable depths of time? A tale of folk fairytales and myths, of swords and sorcery and mythical beings – a unique story of dark times and unsung heroes who may light your way. Book one, A Strange Bunch, features leading characters of various ages. This is a fantasy with their progression happening slowly throughout the series, with occasional spikes in character power after certain encounters that may or may not be random. Although the book series is written with adult and young adult audiences in mind, it is, in the tradition of such epics as “The Lord of the Rings,” suitable for all ages. Excerpt from the scene depicted on the cover of the first book: “Above this hellish pack and the rider at the forefront, flurried a ghastly sight – a cloud of dark, endlessly bustling bodies and wings, a swarm of creatures that, through their almost infinite number, produced that great din which had first reached the ears…” RELEASE SCHEDULE is about once a week. The entire series should take around two and a half years of weekly chapter episodes, so do encourage me by reacting and following. Ratings are greatly appreciated!
