Rayden leaned forward, now completely drawn into the Elder's narrative. His skeptical aura had vanished, replaced by a pure, raw intensity and curiosity. The teacup before him was long, cold, untouched.

"A third function?" he asked, his voice low but urgent. "What else can that cursed thing do?"

The Grand Elder of the Altair clan smiled faintly, the smile of someone who had successfully captured his opponent's full attention. He glanced around the simple stone room, as if to ensure the walls themselves had no ears, before leaning closer. His voice dropped to a whisper filled with the echoes of history.

"A function that almost everyone in this world has forgotten," he said. "A function whose information you will not find in any sect's library. Its records exist only in the most ancient of textual fragments, guarded with the lives of families as old as our own."

He paused, letting the weight of that secrecy settle in the air.

  • The Cultivator's Revenge    Chapter 64. A Choice Between Two Hells

    Rayden's teeth clenched, a soft, grinding sound that was terrifying in the silent room. His fists, hidden under the table, were trembling with a contained rage. God like ambition, legends—all of it meant nothing in the face of the brutal reality of his slaughtered family."And for that insane ambition," he hissed, his voice filled with a cold hatred, "he ordered you all to be his murderous dogs?"The Grand Elder of the Altair clan did not shy away from the insult. Instead, he bowed his head, his wrinkled face showing a deep, long-buried shame. "You call us dogs," he said in a bitter voice. "And you are not wrong."He lifted his head, his old eyes looking at Rayden with a strange gaze, a mixture of regret and resignation. "But tell me, young man. What can a dog do when its master is a dragon?"Before Rayden could answer, the Elder continued, pulling him into the most terrifying memory of his life."I remember that day with perfect clarity," he whispered. "There was no letter, no messen

  • The Cultivator's Revenge   Chapter 63. The Progenitor's Tomb

    The name Lucien Dorne hung in the thick air between them, heavy and laden with hidden meaning. Rayden felt a wave of cold hatred course through his veins. All the tangled threads of his life—the betrayal of his father, the stolen artifacts, the shadow on the night of the massacre—they all led to that one name.That name. The name his father had called his most trusted business partner. The name is engraved on the artifact he had seized from the Bramastas. The name of the shadow he had seen in a stolen memory. All the tangled red threads now converged on that single, cursed name.The Grand Elder of the Altair clan saw the dangerous glint in Rayden's eyes. "Lucien was merely a tool, young man," he said quickly, redirecting the conversation back to the core issue. "To understand why a blade as sharp as him would allow himself to be used, you must understand the immeasurable value of the promised prize. Everything comes back to the crystal, to its function as a key."Rayden managed to sup

    In the silence of the pavilion, the Elder's words still seemed to hang in the air. But for Rayden, the cosmic grandeur of the legend had instantly vanished, replaced by a single, cold, and personal reality. He clenched his fists under the table, his knuckles turning white. A frozen rage crept through his heart."So, all of this…" he said, his voice low and trembling with restrained emotion. "The massacre of an entire clan, just for a legend?"The Grand Elder of the Altair clan shook his head slowly, his expression now somber. "To those of us who live within limits, it is a legend, young man. Something we read in ancient scrolls with awe and disbelief." He paused, his gaze darkening. "But to Brahma Angkara, it is a fact. A final goal that he has pursued with cold obsession for decades.""Brahma Angkara?" Rayden repeated. The name was foreign."That is the true name of the one we call Lord Dragon," the Elder explained. "And after a long search across the world, one of his spiritual sens

    The room felt utterly silent, filled only by the sound of Rayden's own heart hammering in his chest. The greatest prize in the entire universe. The words echoed in his mind, stirring an almost painful anticipation."The greatest prize?" Rayden asked, his voice hoarse with restrained emotion. "What could possibly be more valuable than the immortality and heavenly comprehension you just described?"The Grand Elder of the Altair clan stared at him intently, his old eyes now shining with a strange light—a mixture of awe, fear, and a long-suppressed ambition. He didn't answer immediately, as if weighing the gravity of the words he was about to speak."A legacy," he finally uttered, a single word that felt incredibly heavy and full of meaning. "Not an ordinary legacy, young man. But a legacy from the very beginning."He took a deep breath, preparing himself to tell the most forbidden of legends, a tale that was the obsession of beings as powerful as Lord Dragon."Long ago, at the dawn of th

  • The Cultivator's Revenge   Chapter 59. The Price of Talent

    "Touching the sky?" Rayden repeated, his amber eyes narrowing with skepticism. He was not one to be swayed by beautiful words. "That's just a poetic metaphor for power."The Grand Elder of the Altair clan shook his head slowly, his expression turning gravely serious. "No, young man. I am speaking literally," he replied, his tone leaving no room for doubt. "The second property of the Eternal Pulse Crystal is what every true cultivator covets most. It drastically enhances its owner's spiritual sensitivity to an unimaginable degree.""For an ordinary practitioner, the laws of the universe—the Dao—are a thick book written in a language they cannot understand. They need a lifetime just to translate a single page. For a genius, the book might have a few pictures to help. But for the owner of this crystal…"The Elder paused, his eyes glinting. "It is as if the book whispers its secrets directly into their soul.""An ordinary genius might need years to comprehend a single law of the sword," h
