Chapter 10

" Kiddo, since your physique has recovered completely, use your soul consciousness to enter the pearl."

Ron asked "How do I use my soul consciousness?"

Grandpa Phoenix started to instruct Ron about the method to navigate and use soul consciousness.

" Nop... not in that way. Yes, just like that and concentrate more. Let it accumulate and give a final push."

He finally learned the way to use the soul consciousness after about ten minutes of practice.

Ron then nodded, took a long breath, used his soul strength and entered the pearl.

Dark space, within the phoenix pearl...

It was complete darkness and Ron could see nothing around him but soon the space was illuminated.

Ron could see a big talisman like scripture floating in the space with a glowing light around it. He started moving towards it.

When he stood one metre in front of the talisman, sprinkles of light piled up together to form a human figure.

It was none other than Grandpa Phoenix.

Ron respectfully said "Grandpa phoenix, I think I need to search for a cultivation technique in the library so as to begin cultivation."

When these words entered Phoenix's ears, he grinned "Kiddo, my aim is to make you one of the strongest cultivators in the Celestial Universe and not an ordinary cultivator; so for that, you need to have a powerful higher graded cultivation technique."

"Techniques available in this moderate world is not powerful enough for you to reign the Universe. They are at most Yellow grade or green grade techniques. These techniques are not your worth."

Ron was shocked on hearing these words spoken by Phoenix.

The strongest technique available in the Boris clan is a high level red grade technique and the clan has only one such technique.

The clan has about six middle level red grade techniques and more than ten low level red grade techniques. This shows the importance and scarcity of these cultivation techniques.

But these graded techniques are not even worthy as a fart in Phoenix's eyes.

This made Ron realise that he was like a frog in the well.

"Then, what should I do? There are no such worthy techniques in my clan." Ron questioned.

"Do not worry Kiddo, When an almighty person like me who once ruled the Universe is standing before you, How can I not know any powerful higher graded techniques."

" All you need to do is just kowtow to me, accept me as your master and let me lead you to the peak of the cultivation world" Phoenix smirked.

Ron ridiculed "you can ask me to be your disciple directly. Why do you need to make such a build-up?"

Phoenix was embarrassed about hearing this.

Without waiting for a reply from Phoenix, Ron kowtowed and said emotionally "You gave me the second life and you changed my destiny. Master, I am ready to do anything for you. I just hope I am worthy enough to be considered as your disciple in your eyes. Master, please take me as your disciple."

There was a loud laugh from Phoenix "Hahahahaaaa.... good... good... you are definitely worthy to be my disciple."

Ron took a peek at the glowing talisman and could stop himself from asking "Master, what is this talisman? I feel a divine and supreme aura from it".

Ron felt a special connection with that glowing talisman.

He felt a familiar intimate feeling from it as if it was calling and inviting him towards it but he did not mention it to Grandpa Phoenix thinking that he must be hallucinating.

Phoenix furrowed his brows and his face turned serious when these words entered his ears "I was considered a Supreme being of the Celestial Universe and it was not easy to kill me."

"But betrayal is the most dangerous weapon from which you can rarely protect yourself. The pain it causes is more hurtful than any other injury."

Ron's eyes turned misty upon hearing this, he thought about Nia. He felt suffocation and trembled uncontrollably.

Phoenix moved towards Ron and patted on his shoulder "Do you know why they tried to hunt me down? It is because I am the one and only divine beast which has the strength to go against the Heaven."

"I am the one and only Divine Devouring Phoenix in the entire Celestial Universe, a divine beast who can even devour the Heavens".

" My body contains the Sacred symbols of Laws of Devouring which I consider it to be a Divine Law which is way beyond the Ten Supreme Laws of Heaven and Earth."

"It can help me devour any of the other Supreme Laws of Heaven and Earth such as laws of Fire, Earth, Water, Metal, Wood, Lightning, Wind, Light, Darkness, Space, Time, Life, Death etc."

"By devouring those laws, I can learn those laws as well for which others have to spend thousands or a million years to comprehend."

" I can even devour souls to increase my soul strength and can devour lots of other cultivators and their cultivation to increase a small portion of my very own cultivation."

"This made others greedy and avaricious, so they wanted to have my bloodline Sacred symbols and control all laws of Heaven and Earth to become the strongest in the Celestial Universe."

Phoenix grumbled "Thus I was betrayed by my sworn brother whom I cared dearly and he ambushed me along with my enemies but I escaped the encirclement with severe injuries."

"I knew they would soon track and find me, so I only had one way and that was to use my physical body to create a divine artifact and hide my soul in it but make others believe that I killed myself by self-destructing my body and soul."

" I created a diversion by blasting the void dimension with strength as powerful as my self destruction which made the space-time crumble but I hid inside the divine artifact, the Phoenix pearl and escaped into the chaotic space."

" I lost my consciousness as my soul was severely injured and so my soul fell into a deep sleep. The phoenix pearl must have travelled through space to reach the world you previously resided in."

There was a deep silence for a long time as Phoenix was thinking and recollecting his life and death experiences whereas Ron was silent to prevent himself from disturbing Grandpa Phoenix.

After a period of time, phoenix raised his head and remarked " Kiddo, the glowing Talisman you see before you are the strongest Laws containing the Sacred symbols of the Laws of Devouring which was present in my body."

"Anyway, I have three Celestial grade cultivation techniques which are the peak cultivation techniques of Celestial Universe and they are Imperial Lightning Technique, Death God Scripture and Void Space Incarnation technique."

"Kiddo, You can pick any one of them to cultivate. So, which one do you prefer?"

But Ron continued to stare at the shining talisman and was so much mesmerised and bewitched by it that he did not even hear what Phoenix said.

"Kiddo.... Kiddo..."

Finally, Grandpa Phoenix had to pat at Ron's shoulders to wake him up.

"Kiddo.... You cannot use those laws of devouring since it is not a cultivation technique. Forget about it and select a Celestial cultivation technique among these three techniques."

Ron shook his head and said "Grandpa Phoenix, I felt a familiar intimate feeling from that Talisman as if it is calling and inviting me towards it."

Grandpa Phoenix was awestruck and astonished after it and his whole body shook.

" What did you just say? Intimate feeling? What the hell.... "

Tears brimmed in the eyes of Grandpa Phoenix.

He started sobbing "Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa... Booohooo... Even I never had any intimacy with those Devouring Law symbols."

" Even though I was born with those sacred symbol runes, all I could do was use it directly but even I never understood them completely. Aaaaaaaaaaaaa... booohooooo...."

Ron felt embarrassed upon seeing an old man cry loudly.

He did not know how to pacify him. So he moved towards the talisman and raised his hand to touch it.

As his hand came in contact with the talisman, the pearl dark space started trembling vigorously and the talisman released an immense and vast amount of light.

Phoenix began screaming "What the f**king hell is happening?... Kiddo, where are you?"

" Oh Almighty Virgin God, I am still a virgin. I do not want to die as a virgin again and please do take pity on this seven year old reincarnated kiddo too. He was reincarnated not too long ago and is still a virgin."

Luckily, Ron could not see or hear anything. If he heard the words of Phoenix, he would wish to commit suicide.

Soon the shaking stopped and the dazzling light diminished.

There was something floating in the space other than the Devouring symbol talisman.

Grandpa Phoenix took a closer look at the new floating thing as he furrowed his brows and then he was breathing coarsely.

He started to shriek " That's the powerful seal. Kiddo.... that is the seal on your soul."

As Phoenix was uttering to Ron, there was a sudden change in the seal.

A rune with 'Heaven' written on it popped out of the seal without breaking the seal and moved towards the Devouring symbol talisman.

The symbols of Laws of Devouring on the talisman started to twist and twirl. The symbols flew out of the talisman and penetrated the Heavenly rune.

Ron and Phoenix were stunned silly with rounded open mouths.
