Primordial Vampire God System

"Where are the Forsaken Mountains?"

Azriel questioned and a frown appeared on Luminia's face.

"Why do you want to know that?"

"I can't break through," Azriel answered.

Yes, Azriel was stuck again.

This time, he didn't even try to do it himself, he knew it would be nothing but a waste of time.

"Huh? Don't you just need to drink a human for that? Why the Forsaken Mountains?" Luminia questioned.

Seeing her questioning him like that, Azriel frowned.

This was unusual.

"Teacher… why are you acting so weird?" He questioned.

"Answer my question first, why the Forsaken Mountains?" Luminia however, didn't back down and questioned, her tone was stricter than normal.

"I received a mission from the System."

[Mission: Complete the Trial of the Forsaken Mountains.]

[Mission Description: Complete the Trial of the Forsaken Mountains.]

[Reward: ???]

[Warning: You can't level up until you complete this Mission]

[Time Limit: No Limit.]

Azriel then told the details of the Mission and a solemn look appeared on Luminia's face.

"Is there really no other way for you to break through?" She questioned.

"I don't know if there is or not, however, even you know how strange but strong this system is.

If it says I can't break through unless I complete this mission, I don't think I will be able to Break Through."

Azriel answered.

Luminia's face turned solemn.

Azriel frowned.

This was the first time he has seen this expression on Luminia's face.

"Teacher… what are the Forsaken Mountains?" He questioned again.

Luminia looked into Azriel's eyes and after thinking for a while, she decided to answer.

"The Forsaken Mountains are one of the 7 Forbidden Regions in Yrniel."

"Huh? Forbidden Regions? Like Quietus Barren Lands?" Azriel questioned with a frown.

"Quietus Barren Lands isn't a Forbidden Regions, well, for the weak, it is, however, for the actual powerhouses of the world, that place amounts to nothing now.

Quietus Barren Lands is just another name for the Ruined Royal Vampire Capital."

"Mhm, I have been to that place." Azriel nodded and then, he continued.

"Though I still don't know why it was termed as Forbidden Lands by the humans."

"As I said, it is a Forbidden Region for the weak, it is just a place where people who died there 500 years ago reside."

"Huh? A place where the Dead Reside?" Azriel frowned in confusion.

"Yes, I know it sounds weird.

When a person dies, his soul disappears.

Everybody knows that.

However, for some reason, the soul beings who died in a Battle between Vampires and all other races in Yrniel didn't disappear.

They continued to roam around the Capital City.

Any being who steps into the City was attacked by those beings, Dragons were attacked by souls other than dragons, humans were attacked by souls other than humans and so on.

Therefore, anyone who stepped into the Royal City died under the attack of these souls, however, in the end, these were just souls, they weren't as strong as they were in their prime, therefore, they could only hurt the weak.

Therefore, the weak named it the 8th Forbidden Region of Yrniel, Quietus Barren Lands.

Of course, the strong only scoffed at that name and never considered the Quietus Barren Lands as a Forbidden Region."

"Huh? The souls attack beings who enter the Quietus Barren Lands? Why didn't I see anything?" Azriel questioned.

"What are you talking about? Since when has a person been able to see Souls?" Luminia questioned back.

"Why wasn't I attacked then?"

"The Souls other than that of the Vampires must have attacked you, however, I believe you were saved by the Soul of the Vampires.

Remember, the most number of beings that died in that battle were Vampires, therefore, the Vampires' souls there are very high in number, they are the most dominant there." Luminia answered.

Azriel's eyes widened in surprise and soon, he recalled the gushes of wind that flew towards him and then they were cancelled out by other wind gushes before it could touch him.

'T-Those were the Vampire protecting me…'

Azriel felt Goosebumps all over his body when he realized that.

In his mind, he thanked those vampires who protected his life back then but soon, a frown appeared on his face.

"Then why didn't the Vampire Souls protect the other Vampires who were sent in by the humans?"

Azriel knew that humans tried taking Vampire Slaves into the Forbidden Area, however, just like others, Vampire Slaves died as well.

Why didn't the Vampire Souls protect them?

This doesn't make any sense.

Luminia, however, chucked when he heard his question,

"What are you talking about? Vampires who were sent by humans? Since when did the vampires take orders from humans?"

Azriel's eyes shined in realization.

"They didn't consider them as Vampires…"

"They are not Vampires," Luminia muttered and then, her gaze turned serious.

"As I was saying, Quietus Barren Lands was never a True Forbidden Region. There are only 7 Forbidden Regions in Yrniel and The Forsaken Mountains is one of them.

They are dangerous, a lot lot lot more dangerous than Quietus Barren Lands."

"How dangerous?" Azriel questioned.

Luminia's gaze turned serious and she answered,

"For that, you would understand what the Forrbiden Regions are.

So Yrniel has 7 continents, each continent belongs to each race, of course, ours is now taken by other races, but that isn't the point right now.

Each continent has one Forbidden Region.

According to Ancient Books, these Forbidden Regions are 'Trials'.

Now don't ask me, I don't know what are these Trials for, however, I know one thing,

No one who took this Trial in any of the Forbidden Regions has ever come back.

And when I say No one, I mean no one."

Azriel frowned and then he questioned,

"Not even you, teacher?"

A wry smile appeared on Luminia's face and she answered,

"Even King Dardon and Sir Vlad didn't dare to take the Trials of Forsaken Mountains and those two were a lot stronger than me."

Azriel's gaze turned solemn.

He now understood why his teacher had that face when he asked about Forsaken mountains.

He is not even close to his Teacher in terms of strength.

Actually, even if Luminia uses 1% of her power, she can crush Azriel in one move.

There is absolutely no way Azriel can defeat Luminia right now.

"Then am I going to stay as an Advance Stage Cultivator throughout my life?" Azriel questioned.

"…"

However, Luminia didn't answer.

She had no answer.

The thought about Azriel clearing this Trial didn't even come into her mind, no wait.

Suddenly, Luminia realized something and her eyes started shining.

"No, there is no way System gave me an impossible mission, this just doesn't make any sense.

If I was given this mission, there must be something I can do.

There must be a way out.

Teacher Luminia, do you know what this trial is?"

Azriel didn't lose hope either.

Living a life where he can't get stronger was a big no.

He can't do something like that, he would rather try and take the trial even if the chances of him dying are ridiculously high.

Seeing his gaze, Luminia smiled.

'He might actually complete this Trial.

No, he will complete the Trial, he will be the first person to return after taking this trial.'

"Yes, every Forbidden Region has different Trials,

For example, the one in Dragon's Continent is fighting against a hoard of beings alone, and the one in Demon's Continent is passing through different Floors of extreme conditions.

As for the Forsaken Mountains,

There don't have any complex procedures.

You just have to defeat 1 Beast."

"Huh? One Beast?"

"Yes, just one beast.

However, that beast isn't a Normal Beast.

We call it The Trial Beast."

"A Trial Beast?"

"Mhm, the Beast has the ability to change its cultivation according to the opponent and usually, it is nearly impossible to defeat it.

You, however, are different.

You cultivate both Body and Mana at the same time."

Then, a big smile appeared on Luminia's face as she muttered.

"If someone can defeat that beast, it has to be you."

A small smile appeared on Azriel's face as well.

Heh.

This Trial wasn't as difficult as he expected.

He, as an Advance Stage Cultivator, can easily defeat Master and even Grand Master Stage Cultivators.

There is no way this Trial could pose threat to someone like him.

"Alright, let me be the first person to complete the Trial then.

When are we leaving?"

"A month later."

"Huh? A month? Isn't that a little too late?"

Azriel questioned.

"No, we will be training for this whole month before you leave."

A frown appeared on Azriel's face.

However, Luminia knew what he was thinking so she bribed,

"A whole month of training with no Study time."
