"Who was the one that injured the Totem?" Henry asked. He really wanted to know the answer to this question.
"I don't know." Aaron shook his head. "There is no detailed record about this, which may the greatest mystery. Maybe you'll get your answer when you become the Master of the Elite Spirit Hall. Well, only you can walk the path inside, I can't accompany you any longer."
Aaron stopped at the entrance of a stone gate in the hall. The stone door was open, but there was not a single ray of light when observed from the outside. It was so dark within the stone door that no one could see anything in it.
Henry nodded and stepped into the stone gate.
The moment Henry stepped through the stone gate, the lotus flower, that had merged into the mountain, appeared again above his head once more, giving out lights of four colours. They rotated above Henry's head, creating curtain of light over him.
The interior of the stone cave was exceptionally cold. When Henry stepped into it, the originally dark cave was filled with a strange light, allowing him to see in the stone cave clearly.
Within the cave was just a simple house made of stone. Everything in the house looked simple. There was a stone bed, a stone bench, a stone table, an iron pot, an iron bowl, and a pair of iron chopsticks. That was all.
Upon seeing all of that, Henry felt a sense of warmth in his heart. It felt just like back then on the Surface where Master Lu had lived, it looked exactly the same. Even the size of the stone house, the number of utensils and the arrangements were exactly the same.
Henry could still remember how Master Lu looked like when he used to sit on the stone bench and teach Henry.
"This..."
Henry stepped forward and reached out to touch the stone table. Emotions flooded his mind.
A token was placed on the table. The token was made entirely of the same white jade that paved the thousand-meter-long passage.
There was only one word carved on the white jade token.
"Spirit!"
Henry stared at the word on the token and reached out to touch it. The moment his finger touched the token, the lotus flower above his head spun with increasing speed. The light from the lotus swirled and enveloped the token.
The countless powerful Battle Spirits that floated above the stone platforms in the Elite Spirit Hall as they hibernated all opened their eyes at that moment. In an instant, a terrifying aura filled the entire Elite Spirit Hall.
Aaron, who was standing at the entrance of the stone room, witnessed that scene with his own eyes. The moment the True Spirits opened their eyes, Aaron trembled with excitement.
"An awakening! They have awakened! The Elite Spirit Hall has already acknowledged him as the master, just like that? After hundreds of years of silence, the Elite Spirit Hall makes its return!" Aaron murmured, tears already trickling down his face. "The reemergence of the Elite Spirit Hall shall once again make the whole world crave for it!"
Meanwhile, somewhere within the civilisation of the Core, within the fifth powerhouse, the Noble Berserkers, an ordinary-looking middle-aged man suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked towards the direction of Wanshan District.
"Hehehehe." The middle-aged man laughed in a low tone. "Finally, this day has come! I've been waiting too long for this day to happen! The grudges from all of those years shall be settled.
It's about time for you people who consider yourselves better than everyone else to pay. Men, pass on my command, activate the seal!"
