"ah, so you were the elder at the desolate blood battlefield. it seems like we missed each other by a hair's breadth," lin mu said, unconcerned about the past.
with his newly established identity, there was no way anyone would associate him with the "demon" from back then. even his companions, who knew more about him, saw him wield the power of the devil path—far more fearsome than any mere demon.
as such, they thought little of it. even if they did suspect the truth, their bond with lin mu, forged through countless life-and-death experiences, would overshadow any doubts.
"oh, you were there?" grandmaster lao asked in surprise.
"indeed. brother lin mu was there to harvest some materials," crown prince feng shun confirmed, recalling the details lin mu had shared with him personally.
"i still remember guiding daoist lin mu back then," shu shaoxing added with a nod.
with multiple testimonies affirming lin mu's past presence, grandmaster lao quickly became convinced.
"looks like fate has brought us together. hahaha!" the grandmaster laughed heartily.
the coincidence delighted him. he felt even more assured about having chosen shu shaoxing as his disciple. internally, the grandmaster resolved to increase the resources allocated to shu shaoxing for future growth.
feeling content, the old man grew chatty and discussed the events that had transpired after lin mu's departure from the battlefield. lin mu learned that the investigation into the "demon's" disappearance had ultimately reached a dead end.
the spatial traces left behind were too faint to determine where the entity had escaped. investigators speculated that the demon had used the violet mystic life tree to ascend, leaving the immortal realm entirely.
grandmaster lao, it turned out, was the uncle master of both emperor feng and the huiqing emperor!
"to think that the emperors of two rival empires once served under the same master in the immortal court..." lin mu mused.
the revelation, while surprising, was logical. both emperors had been top-tier prodigies in their youth, much like crown prince feng shun. as such, they had trained in the immortal court under the guidance of the same master.
this master, an esteemed elder of the immortal court, happened to be the sworn brother of grandmaster lao. the elder owed his life to grandmaster lao's exceptional alchemical skills, a debt that forged a deep bond between them.
given grandmaster lao's origin in the rust sky world, his connection to the two emperors was even more profound.
curious, lin mu inquired about the holy topaz emperor, wondering if he shared a similar background. to his surprise, he learned that the holy topaz emperor was an exception.
unlike his counterparts, the holy topaz emperor had never left his clan to train externally. the unique huangyu clan bloodline restricted his learning to the clan's exclusive techniques, making outside tutelage unnecessary.
it turned out that the holy topaz emperor's cultivation technique was quite strange and could actually turn people into gemstones when used. it was rather terrifying but the more lin mu thought about it, the more he realized that it was actually similar to a petrifaction technique. it was something a lot of earth attribute skills could do and several beasts also specialized in it.
but the technique had been modified to turn them into gemstone, particularly a topaz.
it was also where the name of the empire had come from.
the legend was that the founder of the holy topaz dynasty's imperial family had stimulated the unique power of his bloodline and turned ordinary stone into topaz.
he then sold this to gain his wealth before growing stronger and establishing his clan. over tens of thousands of years, it had finally become the dynasty that they knew.
