Chapter 1935: Chapter 1: Original Version Pioneer Space
"The words spoken in front of him back then... in his eyes... hasnât this become a joke?!"
"Whatâs there to joke about?"
The Great Khan shook his head slightly, Ankato looked at the constantly changing projection dome above and solemnly said, "The Earl of Silver Peak... no, given the current intelligence, it should be the Duke of Silver Peak, Archduke of South Ridge."
"Ian Silverpeak has already reached the Fifth Energy Level. Although he might lack some accumulation, he undoubtedly possesses the Fifth Energy Level of the Top Seatâs Bloodâsuch a person, accompanying you younger ones for fun back then, was already very considerate of you."
"As the backdrop to a legend, youâre not that disgraceful."
"Has my generation become confused again?" Raising his eyebrow, Gaer was about to comment on his generational rank when the Great Khan tapped his younger sonâs head, spitting out a spray of blood: "Whatâs confused? The Duke of Silverpeak is the successor of Inega II, also the direct disciple of that fellow Hiliard. Axel is practically of the same generation as him, and barely the same as me."
"Indeed, heâs one generation older than you, two generations older than those of your age."
This is probably the favorite topic among all Royal Court Peopleâthe sequence of seniority is something that they never tire of.
"So he could still count as an elder."
Wiping the blood off his head, now Gaer was pleasedâturns out thereâs someone with a higher seniority than him, who is about the same age as him. But thinking about the otherâs strength already at the Fifth Energy Level, matching his own generation rank, his mood soured again.
After the father and son discussed the generational rank and inheritance of Terraâs Fifth Energy Level strongmen, the topic gradually shifted to the main point.
"Dad, whatâs going on with you?"
Leaning on the bedâs edge, resting his hands on his head, Gaer wagged his tail and asked in confusion, "Nothing major happened, and you didnât have any internal injuries before, how come youâve suddenly âfallen gravely illâ?"
"If youâre pretending to be seriously ill to see which of my brothers or sisters would act against you... to be blunt, no one is that dumb, at least pretend more convincingly."
"Why is that?"
And Ankato glanced at Gaer, then ruffled his hair and ears: "Do you also think Iâm pretending?"
"Gaer... my youngest son, the most adaptable, most attuned to this era, and most talented son..."
At this moment, Gaer suddenly sensed something was wrongâhis fatherâs hand rubbing his head grew stronger and more inescapable, then he heard his father speak softly: "If I told you Iâm truly ill and the cause is precisely because of the technology Axel gave me, what would you think?"
"If I told you that before Axel set his plans in motion, he had already given me the complete set of âSoul Transmigration Technologyâ, can you still remain so relaxed now?"
His head pressed against the bedâs edge, his whole body pinned down by hundreds of times gravity, unable to move, Gaer felt his eyes filling with blood, his skull cracking, the entire body losing sensation, only hearing faintly his fatherâs cold words.
But even so, he still laughed.
"Donât... joke... with such... old stuff..."
Though his speech was jumbled, Gaer wasnât afraid at all, he endured the gravity, blood flowing from his seven orifices, yet he continued to laugh: "The glowing birdâs side... their soul technology, absolutely canât hurt you!"
"Itâs for another reason, you tried to make a further breakthrough, and thatâs why you got injured!"
Saying so, Gaerâs hair, flattened by the hypergravity, started standing up, and his organs, body, and nervous system gradually adapted to the environment. Although he still couldnât lift his head, his fractured skull began healing, becoming harder: "Itâs the Arcane Pathway, right? You saw further possibilities in the Arcane Pathway and intended to make a gamble, but lacking talent, you ultimately failed and injured yourself, right?"
"Oh."
Raising his hand, Ankato released the gravitational restraint, surprisedly using his fingers to lift Gaerâs head, examining closely, puzzled: "Neither your mom nor I are this smart, how did you figure it out?"
âBecause Iâm also learning the Arcane Pathway, old man!
Though thinking that inwardly, Gaer straightened his previously deformed spine before straightening his upper body, disgruntled: "I noticed just now, Dad, your Aether aura is a bit off from before."
"Battleground wolf is earth, celestial wolf is sky, you possess the Blood of the Celestial Wolf, controlling wind and space-time, but earlier when you drew me in, it was clearly gravity, the Earth Attribute Aether."
"Clearly, you are doing what all our ancestors intended, which is to, like the First Celestial Khan, merge the two Bloodline powers to become truly the Khan of All Worlds, mastering heaven and earth."
"Of course, you failedâthe Arcane Pathway indeed holds the possibility of reorganizing the Bloodline Inheritance, reshaping our internally chaotic Bloodline True Form, but this isnât something you can achieve in a mere few months or half a year. You were impatient, though you gained new power, you fell gravely ill, unable to intervene in the chaos stirred by the glowing bird next door."
"I deserved being grabbed to death by you just now without knowing any of this."
