The Forbidden One

"It seems that the man who found this inheritance in my previous life hid many secrets of this inheritance," Yang Zhai muttered.

"Master, it seems that you know about it and I don't need to tell you. However, The Last One is an ire. When you insert your void power in it, a beast will appear, having the same power and rank as you. What's shocking is that it will be able to copy everything you have but only if you allow it. However, as you are weak, it can't copy anything right now, but it will still be able to fight a rank 4 cultivator," said Reen.

"But, to refine it, you need a strong soul as it directly makes a connection with your soul. And a power strong enough to rival it," Vara spoke after Reen.

"Not just that, this beast has a form that is called The Last One. I don't know how my previous master used to activate that form: however, when it activates that form, it will get shockingly and menacingly strong. I can still remember the fear in the enemies' eyes whenever it appeared. I don't think you can refine it for now, master."

"Oh, you think so,"

Yang Zhai tapped into the ring. This ring was ordinary as well but had black and violet color in it. The One could clearly be seen written on it

Black wisps of aura began to release from the ring.

A clash occurred between two powers in the darkness.

Deep red eyes opened with wisps of black aura in the pupils, in the extreme darkness. There was pure darkness everywhere, and nothing could be seen except for a pair of deep red eyes. It was as if a being had been awakened from its slumber.¹

It looked at a being, a man with long black hair, torn clothes, and a black aura around it. The man was sitting, wearing chains around his arms and legs.

The man stood up and looked at the eyes. Their powers were so great that they didn't even touch each other and the strong waves were already producing. If these waves were released into the real world, everything around Yang Zhai would be annihilated, every mountain around him and even he himself.

Yang Zhai had directly tried to connect the ring with his soul. However, his soul was protected by something, the Aurora. Even though the Aurora was not as strong as The Last One, it had an ability that even shocked The Last One.

Yang Zhai couldn't even use only one percent of the Aurora's aura, let alone itself, but that didn't mean that it was weak. The Aurora was, in a way, a part of the soul. Even though his soul itself was not as strong, and only a normal mortal soul, his Aurora was not. It protected Yang Zhai's soul.

It was like, The Last One was directly attacking the Aurora.

Every attack that The Last One threw at it changed or changed its course. A few attacks even went back at the man.

It pulled out an ax. It threw it at the red eyes. The ax changed into a spear and came back at the man with the same force. It pierced the man's heart.

Outside, Yang Zhai wore the ring on the middle finger of the left hand.

Both Vara and Reen looked at Yang Zhai as to what he was doing. They couldn't see the battle that went on between The Last One and the Aurora.

After two hours, Yang Zhai activated the ring with the black sun rays.

A black aura came out of the ring and a boy appeared. He seemed to be around fifteen years old. He was quite handsome. He wore torn tight clothes. His robe was black and red, along with the white belt. His hair is long and black. His eyes swirling blue and yellow. His pupils seem to be swirling. His nails were half an inch long.

"What?!!!!"

When Vara and Reen saw this, they were shocked.

"But how? To refine The Last One, one needs a strong soul and a power that can rival The Last One's first form. But master is only rank 4. Even though I am unable to sense his soul for some reason, I am sure it is only a normal mortal soul. Hw is only rank 4, I am sure he also doesn't have any power that can rival The Last One's first form. So, how?" Reen said with shock.

"Don't sweat over it," Yang Zhai also heard Reen's voice and replied.

The boy stood respectfully in front of Yang Zhai.

"Impressive, you appeared in human form. I can sense that you are only rank 4. So as they said, if I insert rank 4 rays to activate the ring, your power will only match rank 4. Fine, as long as you can rival me, it's fine for me. Now, go back."

The beast went back into its ring. Yang Zhai moved forward and came in front of the urn. This earn was three feet tall. It displays a carving of a woman in the skies and a man on the ground. An arrow in the middle shot towards the skies.

Yang Zhai opened the cap of the urn and looked inside. His eyes fell on an old scroll.

He took it out and looked at it. Yang Zhai's eyes narrowed.

"The Forbidden One?!" He muttered this name when he looked at the scroll. This, as well, was new to Yang Zhai.

"What!!!!!" However, when Reen heard this, she was shaken and taken aback. Even more so than when she heard Yang Zhai say The Last One.

"Why are you so surprised and horrified?"

She shook the moment I read "The Forbidden One". This scroll is definitely not ordinary. She wasn't this horrified even at the mention of The Last One: Yang Zhai contemplated.

"Master, this scroll, this scroll…" Reen was trembling.

"Master, have you heard about the war that took place when the humans created techniques?" Asked Vara.

"Hmm, why suddenly ask that? I have indeed heard the legends. Even the most common disciples are told about the origins of the beasts, humans, techniques, ires, and the Kas, including that a war was fought," replied Yang Zhai.

"Well, many people think that the heavens created the Kas to contend against the humans and the beasts, but no. The race that the heavens created was called the Rageous."

"The war was not ordinary. Many shocking events took place in that war. Even the heavens were shocked. Not just that, two women and a man did something that nobody expected. Black Suns were the result of that incident."

"Heavens… raged, created a race by the name of the Rageous. But, someone interfered with the heavens when it was creating this race. As a result, this race was corrupted. Its powers, well, you can say were horrifying. This was the only particular event where the heavens, humans, and the beasts came together to deal with it."

"I don't know what happened to the race, but the kings this race had were sealed, a total of three to be exact. But there was one who ruled even those three kings. Do you know who that was?"

"Don't tell me…," Yang Zhai understands the implication given by Vara.
