Chapter 8: Life and Death Separation

  Original Wu

  "Fei'er, are you listening to your father?" Jin Yitian looked at Du Fei with a kind expression and stroked his head.

  Du Fei saw his father's current miserable state and felt a sharp pain in his heart, nodding vigorously several times.

  "Fei'er is so clever. Father is almost gone..." Jin Yitian's words were not finished when he heard Du Fei "wa wa..." crying.

  "Dad, nothing will happen to you, you'll definitely live to be a hundred years old, nothing will happen to you. I'm going out now to find a doctor for you." Du Fei was about to get up when Jin Yitian grabbed him, his eyes involuntarily welling up with tears.

  "Fei'er, listen to your father carefully now. Father has something very important to tell you, do you know?" Jin Yitian wiped away the tears from the corner of his eyes.

  Du Fei nodded understandingly and looked at Jin Yitian with tears in her eyes.

  "Dad is the one who saved you from those black-clothed men. Dad just fought with the group of black-clothed men who kidnapped you and they've been taken care of, but Dad was also poisoned and seriously injured." As he spoke, Jin Yitian removed the ring on his hand and handed it to Du Fei.

  "Dad is a Kontrol Master, but because he was framed and had to hide his identity in Changle Town to avoid being pursued by enemies, our original surname was not Du, but Jin. Dad's real name is Jin Yitian. To protect you and your sister, we changed our surname to Du, which is your mother's maiden name. A year ago, I arranged for your sister to go to a safer place, where she can cultivate in peace without any danger. What worries me most is you, if Dad leaves, I really don't know what you'll do.

  As he said this, Jin Yitian looked at Du Fei with a deep sense of guilt and continued after a pause: "However, you are indeed my good son. From the way I've seen you, I know you have the potential to become a Kontrol Master, and your talent is absolutely superior to mine. There are two reasons why I didn't let you participate in the testing conference: one is that I'm afraid you'll be discovered and bring unnecessary trouble; secondly, it's not yet the best time for you to become a Kontrol Master.

  I'm giving you a space ring, also called a container ring. Drip a drop of your blood on it." Jin Yitian said with difficulty, spitting out another mouthful of black blood. Du Fei saw Jin Yitian spit blood and was in a panic, supporting him, but Jin Yitian waved his hand to indicate that he shouldn't worry.

  Jin Ye Tian lightly brushed his finger on Du Fei's right hand, and a drop of fresh blood fell onto Rong Jie. Rong Jie emitted a soft golden light and returned to its original shape. The method of using Rong Jie suddenly appeared in Du Fei's mind - as long as he concentrated his thoughts on Rong Jie, he could know what was inside it; if he thought about something inside Rong Jie, that thing would automatically appear in his hand. If others tried to pry into its contents, they wouldn't be able to, unless the owner of Rong Jie willingly lifted the blood contract. The drop of blood just now had sealed the contract with the ring, and Rong Jie disappeared without a trace from Du Fei's finger.

  But Du Fei had no time to think about these things now, and he listened attentively to every word his father said.

  "In this ring, there are many techniques and martial arts, but the most important thing is called (Wordless Heavenly Book). This Wordless Heavenly Book is a treasure that everyone on the Elemental Continent is fighting for. I was fortunate enough to obtain it before you were born, but after years of contemplation, I still haven't grasped its secrets. It's because of this thing that I've been framed and pursued by others. You must take good care of it.

  There's also a book called (Revelations) that explains how to cultivate into a Yuan Master. It has a detailed introduction to the Yuan Master, which is our family's unique cultivation method. When you have time, you can take it out and look at it.

  In about half a year, you'll be turning twelve years old. If you start cultivating as a Yuan Master then, it won't be too late. Those enemies won't give up on us easily. Although no one knows what you look like, there's a birthmark on your chest that Gold Wentai saw when you were born. This is the only clue they have to track you down. You must be extra careful from now on. You can't go back to Longle County anymore.

  This cave was specifically chosen and built by me, and no one else knows of its existence except for us. It's thousands of miles away from Longle County, in a vast forest of Yuan beasts. You can cultivate here safely, but you must be careful not to venture too far inside. Some of the Yuan beasts are extremely ferocious, even I wouldn't be their match.

  After cultivating here for a few years, you can go find your sister at a place called (Clear Wind Valley). If you went now, I'm afraid you'd face danger and not know how to handle it. In my past struggles, our family was torn apart, and in the end, we ended up like this. Fortunately, heaven hasn't completely abandoned me, leaving behind you and your sister to carry on our family's legacy.

  I've always hoped that you wouldn't get entangled in these feuds again, but rather live a peaceful life. That's my greatest wish now."

  At this point, Jin Yitian's face began to pale, but he forced himself to suppress the poison coursing through his veins.

  Seeing Jin Yitian's painful appearance, Du Fei was already crying and could only use his hand to help Jin Yitian wipe the bloodstains from the corner of his mouth.

  "Son, Dad may be leaving soon, and you'll have to walk the rest of your path alone. Dad won't be able to protect you or dote on you anymore. You must be strong and face difficulties head-on. As Du Yongquan's son, you've never been a coward. I never wanted you to become a Kontrolle, didn't want you to get involved in this terrible world. I just hoped you'd live a happy, ordinary life, but it can't be helped - the heavens don't follow human wishes. Now that Dad is gone, you'll only be a weakling in the ordinary world. Letting you become a Kontrolle is still better than suffering in the ordinary world." Jin Yitian's eyes were filled with tears and helplessness as he held Du Fei's head against his chest, embracing him tightly. Even if he had a thousand words to say, he didn't want to speak anymore, just wanting to savor this last moment of father-son affection.

  "Fei, Father has to leave now. The poison is about to take effect and if it happens here, you will also be poisoned to death. Remember a person named Jin Wentai, he is the current head of our family but he is not a member of the Jin family. In the future, when there is an opportunity, you must expose him, but before that, you must avoid him at all costs and do not let anyone know that you are my son."

  Jin Yitian stood up again and slowly walked towards the entrance of the cave. Du Fei however held onto his father's back tightly and cried uncontrollably. Jin Yitian turned around, looked at Du Fei with tears streaming down his face, then gave him another hug and pulled him into his arms tightly.

  Du Fei used all his strength to hold onto Jin Yitian, afraid that he would leave him even for a moment. Jin Yitian gently stroked Du Fei's head, sealed his meridians with his internal energy, and Du Fei stood still, unable to move or speak before fainting away.

  Jin Yitian let out a deep sigh, not daring to look back at Du Fei. He flew out of the cave entrance and disappeared from Du Fei's line of sight. He didn't want the black poison to affect Du Fei, nor did he want to die in front of him. So, he chose to leave this world alone.

  During the battle, when Jin Yitian was hit by Lin Li's Black Magic Palm, his internal energy had already become disordered. Fortunately, at that time, he used the fire and thunder elements within his body to suppress the black poison element, preventing his internal energy from becoming chaotic. However, the power of the black poison was too strong, and a small part of it continued to harm his body.

  Jin Yitian was now exhausted, without even half a point of strength left to control the black thunder element to suppress the black poison. The moment the black thunder element dissipated, the black poison exploded within Jin Yitian's body. Starting from his feet, he gradually turned dark and disappeared into nothingness with just one blow from the wind.

  Jin Yitian allowed the black poison to slowly devour him, without a hint of fear in his eyes. Instead, there was an air of serenity: "Shan Rou, we can meet again..." As soon as he finished speaking, Jin Yitian's entire body had been consumed by the black poison, leaving behind only a pile of ashes that were blown away by the wind...

  "Bang." The sound of shattering glass echoed, and the Yuanqi mask on the cave entrance shattered and disappeared without a trace. Du Fei also suddenly opened his eyes and woke up, using all his strength to shout: "Dad......"

  Because Jin Yitian has disappeared from this world, the yuanqi that envelops and seals Du Fei's meridians also came from Jin Yitian, so these yuanqi are no longer under control, and suddenly dispersed without a trace, returning to nature.

  Du Fei knelt on the ground, holding his head and wailing in pain. His hands pounded the ground with great force, causing fresh blood to flow out incessantly. However, the anguish of losing his loved one had already made Du Fei feel no more than half a point of physical pain, for at this moment, his heart was numb from the overwhelming grief.

  "Dad, don't leave me behind, don't... waaahhh... what am I going to do if you're gone? What am I going to do?! Why are you so heartless? I've never had a mom since I was little, and now even dad is abandoning me... waaahhh... Dad... please come back! I promise I'll be good from now on, study hard and be a well-behaved son. Please, please come back...

  Du Fei suddenly rushed out of the cave, running and crying as he searched for Jin Yitian. He tripped and fell, but got up again to continue running... until he was exhausted and collapsed to the ground, still sobbing uncontrollably. Xiao Hei followed him all the way, and seeing Du Fei so heartbroken, licked away his tears with its tongue. Du Fei stared blankly at Xiao Hei for a moment before gently nuzzling its head."

  Perhaps it was because he had cried for a long time, Du Fei stopped crying and suddenly stood up, facing the sky: "Dad, I am your son, I will not let you down again, I want to be a strong man, I will no longer be a coward who only knows how to cry. I want to avenge you, Jin Wentai, I want to use your blood to sacrifice my parents' spirits in heaven." Du Fei's words were powerful and resounding, overnight, the spoiled young master who was used to playing pranks seemed to have suddenly become sensible, at this moment, Du Fei's eyes were firmly fixed on the rising sun...
