“Hmm, young man you’re talent is quite good. Seems like you have the potential to be my successor”

Cain was stunned when he heard this voice in his head. He looked around the library and realized no one was near him.

“Relax boy, there's no one here. I’m only a small part of my original bodies soul. I had sealed myself in here waiting for someone suitable to come along. Unfortunately this sect is too damn weak, even the most talented student didn’t reach my requirements.”

“Wait wait wait. Who even are you”

“Naturally I’m Mogel Belmon, who else could I be?”

“But Mogel Belmon died a long time ago”

“You aren’t wrong about that. I’m already dead, like I said before this is a piece of my soul I sealed here to find a suitable successor. I’m guessing you’ve already read my autobiography, so you must know about that secret I found. I managed to seal that secret and lure my enemies away, however I’m just not satisfied. Those damn bandits chased me until I couldn’t run anymore, had they not ganged up on me I wouldn’t have been pushed to such an extreme. I managed to kill all of them except for one, that bastard got away. As long as you promise to kill him when you are strong enough, I’ll naturally give you what the entire universe chased after me for.”

“How strong is he, and what's his name?”

“Kid, I’m worried if I tell you, you wouldn’t dare take the risk”

“Don’t worry, I’m not so weak as to be afraid by a name alone”

“Fine, but don’t say I didn’t warn you. He was a Genetic Emperor the last time I killed him, however he may already have become a Genetic Monarch by now, I’m not sure”

“Genetic Emperor, Genetic Warrior?”

“Dammit kid, don’t tell me you are so weak that you don’t even know how the tiers go”

“I’m the one doing you a favor old man”

“Okay fine fine. Let me quickly explain so you have an idea of what you’re going up against. From weakest to strongest we go, Genetic Warrior, Genetic General, Genetic Prince, Genetic King, Genetic Emperor, and Genetic Monarch, there are tiers beyond that but you don’t have to worry about that for the moment. Each new rank is 10x stronger than the one before it, from the looks of it you are a Genetic General, meaning he’s 1,000x stronger than you. Naturally that's only if he hadn’t ranked up to Genetic Monarch, if so he’d be 10,000x stronger than you…”

“Damn, he really is strong”

“...”

The old man was shocked with Cain’s reaction, most kids would start shaking from hearing those numbers alone.

“I’m glad you aren’t afraid kid, that's half the battle. With my secret you don’t have to be worried about being weaker than him for long. His name is Zigor Kost, he’s the emperor of the Kost Empire, so you won't just have to face him alone, but the royal family behind him as well”

“Kost Empire? Is that like the Zoolean Empire?”

“Zoolean Empire, HA. You can’t even compare them. The Zoolean Empire is ruled by a genetic king, even the Sacred Union only has a Genetic Emperor in charge. the Kost Empire is run by Genetic Monarchs, the only reason Zigor managed to become king early was due to his overwhelming talent. The main reason you can live in peace is because this part of the universe is considered backwater”

“The more you talk, the more weak I feel. How about we get straight to the inheritance part”

“Hmm, you’re right, I’ve spent enough time talking. Anyways the getting the inheritance is rather simple. I left it hidden on a certain part of the Divine Mountain, but to be honest I’ve forgotten where exactly”

“What do you mean you’ve forgotten!?!”

“Kid don't blame me, you dont realize how long I’ve been sealed in this stupid book, my memory has gotten a little blurry over the years. You don’t have to worry though, the Divine Mountain is big but as long as we search the area around it, we’ll find the spot eventually”

“The only problem is how am I going to get near the Divine Mountain. Only the top 10 inner sect disciples can move around in that area”

“Sounds like you’ve just answered your own question. We just need to get you a top 10 spot, and our problems will be solved!”

Cain suddenly felt like the saying ‘The older the wiser’ was definitely not true.
