God Slayer Chronicles Chapter 10

In a dark room, sat an old man with a bushy grey beard . He wore a crimson cloak that draped over his shoulders with a purple and white robe . His eyes were a deep brown, just like his great-grandson's, but unlike his the old man's eyes were tired . Age seeped into them, only the kind of age mourning can provide .

These eyes had seen hundreds of years and had once held absolute power . Now though, all they held were self-hatred .

The old man was Yang Gou, former patriarch of the Yang Clan .

Currently, though, he was just an old man trying to survive . When his favorite grandson who he had played with since young had lost his third child, he felt such sorrow that his Qi deviated, and even his dao-heart was affected .

Advertis.e.m.e.ntWithout a word he had vanished, going into seclusion underneath the mountain the Yang Clan resided on, trying to heal himself .

Unfortunately, it had been over four years to this day, and he was only just barely holding on to his life . Day after day he fought the Qi deviation, worst of all being the powerhouse he was he could spread his divine sense throughout the Yang Clan estate . He knew full well that his son had disappeared, which had only further caused him to suffer and delve into self-hatred .

There was some news that kept him holding onto life all this time though, and that was that finally, his favorite grandson had a child . Yang Chi, why they chose a name Chi was beyond him though . They wanted to grant a child the name 'to suffer?', He could only chuckle in disappointment, comparing it to the child's father, which means blessing… Truly polar opposites .

Although who was he to complain, his parents had given him the name of dog… names are indeed strange things . They're often meant to define us, who we are . But the truth is, its just a name .

If a man is named Dragon will he jump over a gate and transform into one? Perhaps . But probably not . The eccentricities of man have developed to a point to where we think that the name of a child will manipulate the Heavens and bend them to the sweet babe's will .

Yang Gou shook his head; he was going off on a tangent, thinking too deeply into random nonsense . He needed to recover and quickly! He'd heard the various whispers of the Yang Clan factions over the past weeks… The Elders Council siding with the Dark Moon Clan . Yang Zi is taking over the position as patriarch .

He was distraught; the Yang Clan was a house divided, unable to stem the tide that was the Azure Sect and Dark Moon Sect tearing his defenseless home apart!

But there was something else that intrigued him; it was from three days before Yang Fu had set out… it was his great-grandson .

He'd seen him writing a profound technique that shocks him to his very core . He'd explored the outside world when he was a youth, and more importantly Yang Gou read the Yang Clan archives, so of course, he knew the profundity of the technique Yang Chi had written – Sky Ranked!

In the Forgotten Valley, there was only one single faction that had a Sky Ranked technique, and they where the Wen Imperial Family, whom all kingdoms paid homage too .

Zi country wasn't precisely independent . Instead, it was a va.s.sal state to the Wen Empire!

The Wen Empire's Sky Ranked technique was famous throughout the entire empire as the only Sky Ranked technique – The Nethersparrow Transformation .

Without question this technique that was practiced by every emperor for the last ten thousand years was exactly what kept them in power, the va.s.sal states wouldn't dare rebel, as the Nethersparrow technique didn't just allow someone to cultivate to the Star Palace Realm, it also permitted pract.i.tioners to sacrifice their essence to summon a Nethersparrow!

Just the thought of it made chills go up Yang Gou's spine .

That's why he was so surprised when seeing the Nine Suns Fury Technique; it was even more terrifying!

There was only one conclusion Yang Gou could come too, and that's Yang Chi must have practiced a fabled Reincarnation Technique in his past life!

Only a top sect in the Divine Realm would be able to get their mitts on one of these! The Divine Realm of legends! It was a member of a dominant sect!

The Yang Clan family archive told that the original member and ancestor of the Yang Clan – Yang Ozai had descended from that place, fearing the evil Divine Yang Palace… "Who practiced a technique called – "

"Suns Fury Technique . " A voice that wasn't his own reverberated throughout his mind .
