The Mystical universe

Kaeln, deeply engrossed in Old Dai's words, turns to realize that Raizel has completed his breakthrough.

"Oy, you snail, took you long enough," he says with a wide and proud grin on his face.

"The hell are you on? I finished before you. I was just consolidating my newfound powers," responds Rai gleefully.

Recalling the powerful purple lightning and the mighty golden thunder, Kaeln's amber eyes shine. He raises his bare fists, clad in a tank top of animal fur and flexible shorts. His light bronze skin beams with health, his young yet tall body, and his slim yet muscular arms and legs bustling with strength, he make fists of his arms.

"Old Dai said you have awoken your mystic lightning bloodline and... huh, whatever divine might. Feel powerful enough to defeat me now?" asks Kaeln.

Not answering, Rai stares intensely at his hands. After an incense stick of time, he exhales loudly.

"I can't," he says sorrowfully.

"Can't what, you bum?" Kaeln questions back.

"While listening to Gramps, I kept trying to control the purple and gold lightnings, but I was not able to despite my efforts." Looking dejected, Rai looks at his grandfather, his gaze carrying an inquisitive intent.

"You're not ready yet; you will gain initial control of your bloodline after entering the Xiantian Reconstruction stage." Looking at both Kaeln and Raizel, Old Dai raises his left hand. A second letter, two tokens appear in it. With a wave, he sends one to each. "Those are the tokens needed at the entrance. You still have 6 days to prepare, so train to the peak of the 12th extreme layer and consolidate your cultivation," he tells them slowly, turning his back to leave.

"Kaeln, when you breakthrough Xiantian reconstruction, your bloodline will awaken, causing visions to appear in the sky that will be too difficult for me to hide, as its scale will be very large. At that time, I will bring you somewhere safe to hide the source of the visions. You mustn't break through on your own. Understood?" Gravely staring at the boy, Old Dai waits for his answer.

"Yes!" a bit surprised by Old Dai's grave look, Kaeln quickly responds.

Nodding in satisfaction, Old Dai begins to float away, soaring to the skies beyond, going who knows where. Before he disappears, he sends something that looks like a ray of light towards the boys.

As the objects grow closer, Kaeln and Rai begin to see what it is.

Enveloped in Old Dai's qi are two beautiful outfits, perfectly matching the boys' individual looks.

Looking at each other, a glint of light flashes in their eyes as they immediately wear their new outfits.

Kaeln receives a green-red shirt and pants with golden shoulder and knee plates. The shirt is open in the chest area, showing his slightly protruding bronze-like pectoral muscles. Matched with his reddish-brown hair, sun-like amber eyes, angular face, and handsome features, he embodies the youthful appearance of a child of light. One could tell he will grow into a masculine yet incredibly dashing young man, attracting countless gazes. Added to that is his natural aura inherent to divine scions destined to greatness; one can almost see him conquering the heavens and the infinite void in the near future. He is truly a chosen of the sun.

As for Raizel, his outfit is a close-fitted long-sleeved one, purple and dark blue in color, with gold shoulders and a heart guard strapped around his back and chest. His outfit also perfectly matches his appearance, as his short bluish-purple hair, now with mixes of gold, matches his outfit perfectly. His slightly slimmer figure does not give a conqueror's aura but one of nobility and status. However, his striking purple eyes say something different, leaving a shocking memory to whoever dares stare too much. They give his noble aura an emperor's edge, striking fear into his opponents.

The young men, clearly satisfied with their dashing looks, burst out laughing foolishly once again.

Indeed, their old outfits were merely knitted fur. Though it gave them a savage look, while not completely covering their otherworldly aura, it still hid the majority of the gifts they were blessed with.

Six days later, in a busy and wide plaza, two outstanding young men are seen making their way through the crowd.

One clad in red-green and gold, the other in purple-blue and gold, the two specimens are a sight to behold, attracting the gaze of the surrounding people.

"Hyaa, this is the best, Kaeln. Usually, we sneak out while Gramps is away, but he can appear from a distance in a thought so we usually didn't stay out long, but now we can stay outside for however long we want, shahahah," a bright smile on his face, Raizel can't help but exclaim in joy as he looks around the bustling place.

"I know the feeling. So many people. I think the gate of the Free Immortal Sect is not far; all these people don't seem that much older than us. I see quite a few pretty girls; wanna go talk to them?" Kaeln too, couldn't hide his positive moods as his wandering gaze kept exploring every pretty girl in sight. "Hmm, that one has potential; she'll conquer men with those long legs. Oh, that one has quite the aura; she must be a noble... and that one, hm?" Suddenly, one girl catches his eyes; he paused for a moment, causing Raizel to pause and look over.

When the purple-clad boy laid his eyes on the girl, he too was taken aback.

There she was, simply too beautiful to describe. Her light purple hair, pale violet eyes, crystal-pure skin, cherry-pink lips, and the light blush on her cheeks; her perfectly symmetrical face was simply breathtaking. Although still young, she had all the makings of a woman that will cause countless men to be infatuated for life.

"Oy, what do we do? Gramps said not to cause too much trouble when we left the mountain this morning, and she looks important." Seemingly trying to convince himself, Raizel poses an inconvenience.

"So, what, you afraid? I can't see a girl with the making of a god-tier waifu and not talk to her," responded Kaeln. As he spoke, he quickly started walking toward the girl in question, nimbly evading the crowds surrounding her; before long, he was face to face with the maiden.

A sweet fragrance invaded his nostrils at once, almost making him faint from its angelic smell. His luminous amber eyes made eye contact with her light violet irises as she finally takes notice of this haughty-looking individual who dares to stand in her way.

Standing barely a foot in front of the girl, Kaeln extends his arm toward hers and grasps her hand, which he slowly brings to his lips and kisses. Her bright eyes widen in shock.

Suddenly, the loud crowd and bustling scene seemed to come to a deathly silence.

One second,

Two seconds.

Three seconds.

A whole minute passes before a noise was heard; the source of the noise couldn't have been pinpointed, but it seemed to have been either a snort or a fart.

Finally, the shocked maiden retracts her hand realizing everyone was looking at the two of them; before long, her entire face was pink, which added a layer of beauty to her, mesmerizing the whole crowd and the daring boy in front of her.

Shaking, she asks, "Who, who are you?" A melodious voice soothing to the ear was heard, pulling everyone out of their trance.

"My name is Kaeln, Kaeln Yang." Still staring into her soul through the intermediary of her eyes, the red-clad boy says.

"Kaeln… Yang…" she mumbles. She had never heard that name before, but the young man in front of her was clearly extraordinary. Despite his daringness, she couldn't help but be curious about him.

"Ahahaha. Yes, I'm him, and you. What is your name?" With a light laugh, Kaeln probes for her name, his originally dashing face suddenly shines even more, as if a ray of sun in a cold morning, his laugh brightens the atmosphere, stunning even the beautiful maiden.

'What a beautiful boy,' she thinks. Realizing her improper thoughts, she gets pink again, this time even more so than before.

"Su...Suya...Su Yao. My name is Su Yao; I am the Free Immortal Sect Master's Su Tianlong's daughter." Her face still synonymous with a ripe apple, she declares her identity.
