"But the gift I will give you does not come for free. There is a task that I will entrust to you."
"What is it? Tell me and consider it done!" Austin said confidently. Though he didn't know what Angus would ask of him, he vowed to himself that he would do it no matter what.
Besides, it was like doing an important task for a very noble martial artist.
"Well, when I was still alive, I managed to set up a sect. The sect is called Magic Hand Sect.
If you ever encounter Magic Hand Sect in your future endeavors, I need you to find a girl who goes by the name Ariadne and give this jade case to her. She is my only daughter in the world."
Then, as Angus waved his hand, a jade case suddenly appeared in front of Austin. It was emitting a mild light. Without any question, Austin took it and stored it in his Space Ring.
"But hundreds of years had passed. To be honest, I don't even know if the Magic Hand Sect still exists. Maybe, it had disappeared in the never-ending river of time.
And don't know if my poor daughter is still alive either.
For me, it was like yesterday. But five hundred years just went by like that," Angus sighed. It was no surprise that a soul like him would be stuck in the memories of the past. After all, memories were what a dead soul was made of. It was memories that made them who they were.
"Has it really been five hundred years since you passed away? If that so... I'm sorry but... Angus, I'm afraid that your daughter might have already perished..."
Austin said. He couldn't think of a more realistic way to put it. Besides, a normal person couldn't live for more than one hundred years. Not unless that person had developed a body that could surpass the human limit, until...
Angus said, "Young man, maybe you're not aware, but if one's cultivation base reaches Imperial Realm, his life expectancy could reach up to 500 years. If one steps into Basic Sacred Realm, he can live for 1000 years. And if he reaches the Holy Realm, he could live up to 3, 000 years.
Judging your strength, I believe you have reached the Mysterious Realm. But if you further your cultivation, you will soon understand what I am telling you.
Again, if you meet my daughter Ariadne, tell her that I was killed by Lyman and that she should stay far away from him as possible."
Austin was sure new to realms after the Mysterious Realm. It was the first time that he had heard about the Imperial Realm, Basic Sacred Realm, and Holy Realm. These realms of cultivation base were beyond his imagination. Given that he had reached the medium stage of the Mysterious Realm, he could already be considered as a powerful martial artist in the Violet Orchid Empire. But after hearing about the other realms, he realized that there was still a lot to learn and that if he went into the outside world, he might be regarded as the weak.
Austin was more impressed in the fact that a martial artist's life expectancy could be extended when he reached the Imperial Realm.
"Sir, even if you don't impart your medicine refinement skill to me, I will do as told if I meet your daughter," Austin said sincerely.
"I understand. I have never thought that you value promise and personal loyalty so much.
Well then, open your Soul Sea, young man."
