The Human realm.

A harrowing strong wind howled.

Heaven and earth were completely blurred, obscured by a huge rain shower.

Dark grey clouds eclipsed the sky, with the occasional bolt of lightning arcing across the cloud layers.

The world was sporadically illuminated.

At a certain point.

A bolt of lightning descended from above and struck the mountain range.

Some fire started rising from a valley in the mountain.

The flame was spreading rapidly throughout the entire hill, slowly building up to become a wildfire that not even the rain strong wind could put out.

Bang!

Booming thunder continuously flickered behind the clouds.

Wind and rain ravaged the mountain forest, lightning and fire adding to the chaos.

Everything seemed gloomy.

Far above the sky, a tiny black dot was suddenly seen.

----it was a person.

As soon as that person appeared, he immediately shot through the thick layers of black cloud and descended towards the ground.

His eyes were tightly shut, his body clad in a set of white armor with red patterns.

The armor had already been thoroughly broken, only a few pieces still remained barely hanging onto his body, which were then scattered by the howling strong wind as well.

The man seemed to have fallen unconscious and was completely oblivious about everything occurring around him.

In the rain and wind.

He was descending increasingly faster------

If nothing changes, he will directly crash into the ground.

One breath.

Two breaths.

Three breaths.

As time slowly passed, the man continued to remain motionless.

Suddenly, a faint golden light appeared around his body and manifested into a golden coin.

Chink ca-kling---------

The coin circled around the man once, gave off a curt loud noise, then vanished without a trace.

Descending.

Descending.

Continuously descending.

A flock of birds in the forest was suddenly disturbed by the spreading fire.

The natural fear of fire caused those birds to hurriedly take flight in an attempt to get away from the source of fire, but a bolt of lightning had suddenly struck the region not too far away from where they were right as they took off.

Bang!

The sound of thunder swiftly followed.

The flock of birds was even more frightened and hurriedly flew in a certain direction, which just happened to intercept the man's collision course.

As a faint glow flickered around their bodies, the birds weren't crushed to death by the descending man, but their formation was disturbed and once again fled in another direction.

The trajectory of the man's descent was also altered by this.

Just in time for a huge gust of wind to arrive and carried him off as he continued his descent.

This tiny change directly caused his point of impact from a pile of jagged mountain rocks to the riverbanks next to the forest.

Sha sha sha sha!

The sound of rain battering the river and ground combined with the howling wind had completely drowned out all other sounds.

A silent bubble appeared on the surface of the huge river.

As the man fell into water, his downward momentum was rapidly killed off, leaving him to brush past a large fish that was over five meters in length.

The fish was originally just playing around in the water, so it didn't expect to crash into a human and reflexively swatted the man away with its tail before dashing off.

Being swatted by the fish, the man finally started to float up.

Within the intense water current, a large branch of burnt wood just happened to drift by.

The man's arms were caught onto the branches, causing his body to swivel several times along with the large branch in the water before settling down on top and started floating downstream.

The river current was fierce and the rain was unrelenting.

The sky gradually grew darker and darker.

The sudden downpour had formed an intense current that carried the large branch all the way downstream.

At a certain point, a black shadow that was over ten meters in length rapidly appeared from below the river and chased after the large branch.

However, before it could reach its target, a longer and more ferocious black shadow appeared from deeper under the water.

The two shadows remained mutually cautious of each other, but quickly proceeded to clash.

A part of the river was dyed red from their blood.

But the large branch simply continued to float downstream.

An entire night went by.

The rain continued to fall without any signs of stopping.

A giant bird showed up in the gloomy grey sky.

The bird noticed the floating branch as well as the unconscious person on it very quickly.

------that's a nice breakfast.

The bird flapped its wings and swooped down in a lively manner.

Bang!

The clouds above discharged its lightning once again.

Right at this moment, several bolts of lightning streaked across the sky and struck the giant bird at the same time.

The bird cawed in desperation, struggling to stay in the air, but it quickly lost its life and fell down.

The large branch and the man stuck on it were still completely fine as they continued their journey.

Time slowly passed.

The sky gradually grew dark again.

The river was becoming increasingly narrower with barren landscape on both riverbanks.

At a certain point, the golden coin flew out again, hovering in front of the man's face to illuminate his expression.

------he was still unconscious.

But it has already been one whole day, and [True Luck] is about to run out.

The night mercilessly descended once more.

The golden coin gave off a cry, then retracted all of its golden light and entered the man's body again.

At the very last moment, the large branch started to veer off from the current of the river and gradually drifted ashore.

The branch did not decelerate at all and violently crashed into a rock on the river bank.

Bam!

A dull noise.

The branch was stuck between two large rocks and remained completely motionless.

The man was still unconscious, but wounds could now be clearly seen all over his body, displaying just how terribly injured he was.

At this point, the rain finally stopped.

The wilderness was completely silent.

After not too long, the sound of nimble footsteps could be heard approaching.

Under the shroud of the night, a young girl was approaching the river banks from a nearby forest.

"Just in time, it seems nothing had changed"

The young girl muttered to herself.

She approached the man while walking on water, pulled him from the river to shore and laid him down below a large tree.

The young girl observed the man's face with a gaze full of nostalgia.

"Gu Qing Shan"

She muttered softly.

The man kept his head down and his eyes closed, still unresponsive.

The young girl looked at the terrible wounds all over the man's body and couldn't help herself from sighing.

Suddenly, some commotion could be heard from afar.

Shouting, laughing, begging, screaming-------- these sounds were all carried by the wind.

Hearing this, the young girl's expression changed.

She tied a bag on the man's hip, took two steps backwards, then put her hands together and recited: "With my vitality, sacrifice!"

An invisible fluctuation appeared from her body.

She then put her hand over the man's chest and grunted: "For you!"

The man's entire body trembled, then abruptly opened his eyes and looked straight at the young girl.

"Did you save me? Who are you?"

The man asked weakly.

"Are you awake?" the young girl asked in return.

The man's cautious expression gradually turned to confusion.

"I… seem to have forgotten a lot of things… who exactly am I?" the man muttered under his breath.

He suddenly noticed two lines of bloody red text in front of his eyes:

[Sneak through complete]

[The Highest Sequence's energy has been fully expended and fallen into slumber]

-----what does this mean?

The man was still clueless, but the young girl appeared to be completely calm.

"Gu Qing Shan, the only thing you need to do right now is to first survive" she told him.

"Who are you?" the man asked.

The young girl looked at him and said with a complicated expression: "In the past, when the two Unfathomable Apocalypses gathered at the Wraith realm, Fei Yue, Xiao Die, and I had arrived to help you battle, but as soon as the battle begun, the Master of the Ominous Demon Tower was instantly killed"

"Knowing that we would not survive this battle, I had expended all of my power and lifespan in order to make an ultimate observation before my death"

"What did you see?" the man asked.

The young girl sighed, then continued: "I've gained countless powers and abilities throughout my entire life, but never have I been able to see the light, which was also my life's regret. Fortunately, I managed to see the only hope before my death, which was this very moment"

Her entire body gradually rotted away, leaving nothing but a skeleton frame behind.

"I was the blind nun------ before everything occurred, I had already entered reincarnation from the Forgetting River in order to wait and receive you here in the Human realm"

"Receive me?" the man asked in surprise.

"That's right, Gu Qing Shan. You've already expended all of your power, so the only way for your withering process to temporarily halt was by using all of my vitality and help you regain your clarity for the time being"

The skeleton continued to talk: "This is already everything I can do. What comes next will depend on you alone"

The man hurriedly asked: "You------ why did you sacrifice all of your vitality to me?"

The skeleton gradually crumbled into dust as well, leaving only a few words left in the darkness.

"This is nothing, I need to head into Huang Quan to search for Fei Yue and the others------- we're all waiting for you, Gu Qing Shan"

As soon as he heard these words.

The young girl had also completely crumbled away.

The only one remaining in the darkness was the clueless man.

Suddenly, a red flash appeared in front of his eyes.

Lines of text manifested in the void of space.

[Having obtained a small amount of vitality, the Sequence has temporarily ceased slumbering]

[At this point, you can choose to activate one of your many secretive abilities]

[Please make the choice yourself]

[To prevent any spying, the Sequence will quickly fall back into slumber after you make your choice]

Secretive?

Hearing these words, the man answered without hesitation: "Activate Red Dragon Origin Hex for me"

He was surprised as soon as he said this.

Red Dragon Origin Hex?

What's that?

While he was thinking this, some rustling could be heard from the nearby forest.

Two bandits wearing leather armor and wielding blades in their hands emerged from the forest with ferocious expressions.

"There's a straggler here!" one of them called out.

The man responded right away: "Straggler? Are you talking about me?"

"Ahahaha, of course, I'm talking about you. Not a single person from this village is going to escape!" the other replied.

They both charged towards the man.

They raised their blades up high------

A cold gleam was reflected in the darkness.

Thud!

Thud!

Their bodies fell to the ground.

As their blood spilled all over the ground, the two bandits' expressions were full of disbelief.

They couldn't even imagine that they plunged their own blades into their chests.

Killed by a single strike!

In the forest, only the man remained, his expression was once again that of confusion.

"Why did they commit suicide in front of me?"

He muttered to himself.

Suddenly, a wave of intense pain radiated from his brain, causing him to groan and started rolling on the ground like mad.

Faintly, he seemed to have seen a short vision of his own memory.

Numerous heavenly beings had surrounded him.

A loud voice spoke up: 「 You are already late. The Samsara Clash for Supremacy will shortly begin, and you won't be able to force yourself in 」

------he saw himself wearing a suit of armor with four swords floating around him, angrily declaring:

[I'm going to kill all of you first, then reset the Samsara!]

A hundred million rays of light emerged from his back to crush everything.
