The Genius System Without Equal

“Junior Sister, what’s wrong with the Xiao Clan?” Elder Long asked with a very confused look.

“They are a species with an unlimited potential to fight, and they came from the outer world—do you not see the problem?”

Tianshan Elder glared at him coldly, looking rather annoyed. “He’s not one of us, and we do not know where his loyalties lie. Just what are you up to here, Long?” she chided.

The point she was getting at was that how Elder Long could leave the crucial task of protecting this world to an outsider. To make matters worse, he even asked her to help him unleash his potential, and it was insane. Although the Xiao Clan looked like humans on the surface, their souls were not the same as humans deep down. It was as good as they were from another country visiting this country, regardless of how popular they were, it made little sense to hand over the reins to them to run this country. It just did not add up.

“Elder, us Xiao Clan had taken roots in this world since our Seekong’s era and we had been living here just like everyone else. We respect the rules and social norms in this world and had even developed our own culture and lineages in Luo’s village.” Xiao Quanren stood out to defend the Xiao Clan.

“I agree very much with Xiao Quanren as the Xiao Clan has long become a part of this world, and they have at least half of this world’s human blood in them now. Besides, isn’t Xiao Luo a very capable and outstanding youth? Don’t you also have high regard for him, Junior Sister? Otherwise, why would you have allowed him to marry your beloved disciple?” Elder Long exclaimed.

Tianshan Elder glanced wryly at Gu Qianxue, who was next to him, and answered, “Long, have you forgotten what our master said before? He predicted that there would be a demon descending to this world in two thousand years, and the vent would bring forth unmitigated disasters to humankind and all living beings.”

“Of course, I remember that. How could I forget what our master had told us?”

Elder Long stroked his non-existent beard and said with a serious tone, “But what does that demon have to do with Xiao Luo?”

“What does it have to do with him?”

Tianshan Elder laughed mirthlessly and said, “Tell me, why did the Xiao Clan come to this world? They were here to invade us, for they all have innate aggression in their blood. With invasions came wars, and these would prove to be the source of the foretold disasters. I thought the Xiao Clan had gone extinct, and I didn’t have to worry about any potential threat from them. But it seems, now that one of them has re-emerged again.”

What’s worse, it is that I who had performed the Divine Art of Moulding on him. The Xiao Clan bloodline has limitless potential, and God knows how strong he could become after we help him unlock his potential completely. If the demon in master’s prediction is indeed this rascal, then I’ll be the eternal sinner who helped bring forth destruction to this world.”

“No, master, Xiao Luo will never become that demon you talk about. He’s a good man!”

Gu Qianxue shook her head and defended Xiao Luo with tears in her eyes. Since the time at Jiangcheng, she had seen that he was a kind man who always remembered his core purpose and responsibilities, and that was the reason she had fallen in love with him. In others’ eyes, Xiao Luo was just a cold-blooded killer who enjoyed slaughter, but as far as Gu Qianxue was concerned, it was not true.

“ROAR!”

Another deafening roar came from inside of the black prison. The roar resounded and reached them like waves of a tsunami, making everyone’s ears ring painfully. It also created a few more deep cracks on the ground, and it was as if an earthquake just took place.

“Master, please let Xiao Luo out. There must be something terrible happening inside!” Gu Qianxue was extremely worried and continued to plead to Tianshan Elder.

Let him out?

Tianshan Elder smiled bitterly as this situation had gone entirely beyond her control. She had likely unlocked the full potential of the Xiao Clan bloodline in that rascal, which made him extremely powerful now. In his present state, and were he not to be mentally stable and set free, then none of the people here could suppress him. The raging aura escaping from the Prison of Heaven and Earth was incredibly intimidating and overpowering—it frightened Tianshan Elder.

“Don’t worry, young girl. This is normal as his vitality is peaking to an unprecedented level, and it means that he’s about to break through his limits and reach new heights.” Elder Long tried to comfort her.

But inwardly, his opinion was the same as Tianshan Elder as they could not afford to let Xiao Luo out now carelessly. This aura emanating from the prison was ominous, and he had never experienced such a terrifying and powerful aura from anyone else, not even his late master.

Gu Qianxue was still too naïve and believed Elder Long’s words, even though it still puzzled her. She had forgotten that Elder Long had anxiously asked her master about the current situation and looking confused just moments ago.

“No, I can’t afford to risk Xiao Luo being in any danger!”

Xiao Quanren flew toward the Prison of Heaven and Earth and thumped the pitch-black prison wall with his palm.

His almighty palm force turned into a ray of white aura blade and struck the pitch-black cube. However, when the aura blade came in contact with the surface of the prison, the black glow enveloping the prison brightened up and started devouring the aura blade eating a meal. Within a few moments, the white aura blade dissipated into the thin air as if it was never there.

While it shocked Xiao Quanren, and the Prison of Heaven and Earth suddenly sent out a burst of energy with tornado-like power and slammed into Xiao Quanren. He vomited blood and was thrown back in the air, flying for a few meters. After he landed hard on the ground, he vomited more blood.

“Are you an idiot? If my prison could be broken so easily, then how could my Divine Art of Molding have the title of ‘Divine’.” Tianshan Elder ranted as she looked down at him and thought that Xiao Quanren deserved it.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

Suddenly, the Prison of Heaven and Earth trembled from a relentless thumping that reverberated like explosions, sounding like a ferocious beast was trying to break free of the cage holding it. The ground shook with every explosion, and far away, an avalanche occurred. Tons of snow ran down from the sides of tall mountains, inundating the low-lying area, as the raging collapse of snow could be heard rumbling through the snow valley.

BOOM!

Another explosion took place, and the prison shook even more vigorously, causing one of the sides to crack and creating web-like patterns.

“Junior Sister, it seems like Xiao Luo will break out of the prison soon!”

Elder Long swallowed his saliva, and he believed matters were soon going to get out of hand. For one couldn’t judge the Xiao Clan with common perception alone, and as he had seen before how strong Xiao Luo was, he could already sense it intuitively.

Tianshan Elder ignored him and performed the Divine Art of Molding immediately. She bounded to the sky and quickly made a series of hand gestures to send an invisible energy field to strengthen the prison. It made the prison even darker, and the cracks were repaired at a very fast rate.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

However, the thrashing continued relentlessly and was becoming even more forceful. It was as if the beast within had gone completely mad. Its inhuman roar was intimidating and frightful, and more cracks began to appear on the surface of the prison walls.
