“braydon!” the young man’s eyes emanated an ancient aura.
as he spoke, it seemed as though he conversed with heaven and earth.
slowly, he repeated, “braydon.”
“ancestor?” remington neal and the others bowed in reverence.
“ancestor!” jaromir neal’s astonishment mirrored the others’.
the family ancestor had concealed a fragment of his spiritual essence within the group and accompanied them.
“senior!” braydon neal acknowledged.
“are you reluctant to recognize your lineage?” the young man sighed. “let’s step aside for a conversation. jaromir, you should join us. your presence will reassure braydon.”

indeed, this elder possessed a keen insight into the human heart.
braydon, fused with the remnant soul and memories of the thirteenth master, inherently trusted jaromir.
with jaromir at his side, braydon felt reassured.
the trio moved aside.
the young ancestor continued softly, “had thirteen not perished, you would have grown side by side, both possessing peerless ten-eyed dual-pupils. you would have nurtured each other’s path.”
“ancestor, braydon is thirteen!” jaromir interjected.
the young ancestor shook his head slowly.
“at that time, you risked your lives to gather thirteen’s remnant soul, but only a fraction was infused into braydon’s body. his bloodline suppressed it, and the fragment served as an offering, providing him with new memories.”
their initial intention had been to merge that feeble soul fragment with the young braydon’s body.
it wasn’t possession—it was a symbiosis.
one was within the other, and vice versa.
the two entities melded into one.
the spirit sea family could interpret this phenomenon as the resurrection of the thirteenth master, while outsiders saw it as an opportunity for braydon.
that fragment of soul was feeble, unable even to possess a child.
if it had fused with an adult, with the adult’s instinct, it would consume the remnant soul of the thirteenth master, assimilating it for nourishment.
the family harbored no ill intentions; they sought only to fulfill one person’s desire—to birth another bearer of the ten-eyed dual-pupils within the family.
how many formidable lineages had emerged over the span of ten millennia?
that remained a mystery.
yet, the spirit sea entity stood as the foremost powerhouse among them all.
within their ranks, every member boasted dual-pupils.
braydon lapsed into a contemplative silence.
it wasn’t reluctance that held him back from entering the spirit sea, but rather concerns rooted in the outside world.
seemingly attuned to braydon’s apprehensions, the young ancestor addressed him, “you’re worried about the creatures from the ruins infiltrating the outside world. the family will assist you in mitigating this risk. we’ll dispatch experts to safeguard the realm beyond.”
“ancestor, the seymour family is behind the 3,000 ruins’ threat of breaching the bronze doors,” jaromir disclosed, unveiling a clandestine truth.
there was indeed a puppet master behind the 3,000 ruins.
the appearance of the virulent green liquid was no mere coincidence; it undoubtedly originated from a powerful entity within the depths of the spirit sea, bestowed upon the ruins’ inhabitants to facilitate their escape.
“i’ll handle the seymour family promptly. there’s no cause for concern,” the young ancestor asserted nonchalantly.
with that assurance, the ancestor turned his gaze to braydon, silently urging him to accompany them into the spirit sea.
“if you can neutralize the threat posed by the 3,000 ruins, i’m willing to venture into the spirit sea,” braydon affirmed.
“remington, assemble your men and survey the various ponds. instruct the ruins’ inhabitants to refrain from venturing into the outside world. disobedience will result in the dispersal of their souls and the annihilation of their spirits!” the young ancestor commanded.
“yes, ancestor!” remington and the others acquiesced, bowing their heads dutifully.
with remington leading the charge, their presence would undoubtedly intimidate the 3,000 ruins into submission.
a being surpassing the divine realm could effortlessly dominate the diverse ruins.
with that assurance, braydon could approach the spirit sea with a sense of reassurance.
the elder tore open the fabric of reality with his bare hands, transporting braydon and jaromir to the heart of the spirit sea.
in the depths of the spirit sea, the qi was so dense it seemed to be turning gas into liquid.
upon a black island sprawled lush flora and grandiose palaces, meticulously sectioned into distinct zones.
it comprised five districts.
to the east lay the abodes of the family’s adults, predominantly housing experts.
the southern district served as the residence for the youth. children above the age of three were required to depart from their parents and relocate southward to receive comprehensive education. they cohabited with peers of similar age and were permitted to depart the southern precincts only upon reaching adulthood.
the western district harbored the residences of the family’s prodigies and direct descendants. each genius or progeny possessed their own secluded courtyard, rendering it the least populous area.
as for the northern district, it housed the family head, elders, and other key figures. this locale facilitated swift congregations for discussions on pertinent matters.
