"Boy, you must defeat that bastard. Although I'm just a grotto which cannot live outside of this place, I want the world to be peaceful and out of potential threats that could destroy it." The grotto's voice sounded. It was calm and serene.

"With your assistance, it will be an utter disappointment if I cannot still slay that monster." Jin Rou chuckled, "We'll be leaving now."

"Take care boy." The grotto laughed, "And you emperor brat. Say hi to your ancestor for me. If he has time, he can visit me anytime, no? I'm quite bored here and I might give him a reward too if he pleases me."

The emperor was stupefied to hear this. Nevertheless, he could only smile wryly and say, "I'll be sure to send your words to our ancestor."

He remembered vividly that this grotto toyed with them so much that he almost lost his life. If not for the ancestor, he might be one of the bones here now. The grotto had an eccentric personality of a sentience, after all."

If it's possible, he didn't want to come here again. Not ever again unless it was Jin Rou who was his companion.

After that, the trio left eventually and the grotto was all alone again. A long silence ensued before it said, "The tides of the world will change because of that boy's arrival. I wonder how will that monster escape this time? I'm looking forward for its possible death."

The grotto has a deep grudge against that monster because of a history of the ancient past. However, it wasn't recorded so no one knew of it. Of all people, the sentience of the grotto wanted the monster's death the most.

"Where are you going now, Your Majesty?" Emperor Randies asked. After a few seconds, he was enlightened, "Are we going to go to where the Heavenly World Tree is?"

"Indeed, that is my priority right now." Jin Rou chuckled, "According to the grotto, the next location it'll appear will be later this night, and in the vicinity of Soaring Immortal Empire."

Fortunate times came at the right time. Who would have thought that Jin Rou would encounter such fortuitous event? Just think about it, the Heavenly World Tree was soon to appear and he would be the person to receive it! Remember, the tree could only bless a single person and after that, it'd disappear and never see the sun again. It would be another millions of years perhaps before it appear.

Emperor Randies couldn't help but smile. The appearance of the Heavenly World Tree would create massive turmoil and uproar. After all, everyone was seeking a blessing from this tree!

"Your Majesty, we're very lucky. I have a portal scroll leading to the outer territories of Soaring Immortal Empire. We will be there right immediately." The emperor was beaming with smile. It was truly a good choice that he was forged to bring portal scrolls for the trip.

Truth be told, he didn't want to. After all, he had no reason to go to such places but the ancestor forced him to bring them in case he needed it. Who would think that he actually had usages for the portal scrolls he brought? With this, he was earning more good points from Jin Rou.

"Really?" Jin Rou was pondering of a few methods to reach the said empire. It was told that this place was very far from here. But now that Emperor Randies came prepared, how couldn't he not be happy? "Emperor Randies is truly very considerate. Fret not, I'll be giving decent compensations for your liking after this."

"Your Majesty, no need to say this. I'm just here to assist you." Emperor Randies waved it off but he's feeling good inside. The previous resentment and annoyance he was feeling from Jin Rou were now gone, making the emperor sigh in relief.

Jin Rou nodded and grabbed Athena and put her into a private space, "Stay there and sit obediently."

It was not a request. It was a command and Athena had to follow it no matter how much she hated it.

After that, the emperor activated the scroll and the two entered without further ado.

Soaring Canyon. This was part of the outer territories of Soaring Immortal Empire, the empire which boasted the highest number of treasures in this generation. As a matter of fact, they had been the highest since time immemorial.

The land the empire was built was called Heaven Dao Land, the purest land in this region and one of the top lands available in the entire world. In terms of treasures, the Soaring Immortal Empire was leading the rankings. If you want treasures, be it god treasures and dao treasures or even creation of eon treasures, you would find it here. Of course, the price was expensive. Very expensive that middle tier families couldn't afford to spend.

Moreover, the empire had also said to be selling a very few and very rare heaven and earth dynasty treasures! This was the highest level a treasure could attain and not just anyone would be capable of having one. In fact, in the entire world, perhaps only laws and ancient Dao Supremes had this.

Jin Rou and the emperor in tow arrived in the canyon. This canyon was said to be the home of treasures in the past. However, after so many times of excavating the land, the canyon became an ordinary one, making the canyon's worth going down the drain.

It was understandable. After all, the canyon had no use now so what's the point of giving it a high value? Even the land's and the steep rocks of the canyon turned ordinary which could be seen anywhere.

"Soaring Canyon. This is the place where the Heavenly World Tree will appear. However, I don't know where it will appear in this vast place." Jin Rou said. The canyon was truly big that ordinary eyes couldn't see how far the end was.

"Fret not, Your Majesty. The appearance of the Heavenly World Tree will create a grand visual phenomenon. So it's easy to deduce where it will be.." The emperor said as he already experienced this in the past.
