My Cultivation System - Chapter 297: Ashvalor Family

Even though his body was currently in the small cave of the treasure land, Henrick’s soul was hovering in the endless space as he wondered where he was right now.

‘Swoosh’

‘Swoosh’

‘Swoosh’

Just as he was wondering where he was, many mirror screens appeared in front of him.

‘Why are there so many mirror screens? And what do they want to show me?’

Henrick saw mirror screens in the soul store and he also knew why they would be used. So, he was confused and wondered what those mirror screens wanted to show him.

‘Anyway, since I don’t know how to get out of here. I will just stay here and watch what they will show me.’

Henrick didn’t panic because of teleporting to some random endless place; instead, he was curious about the mirror screens and waited as an audience who was in a theatre.

‘I am going to kill this mouse and use its heart to break through into the immortal realm.’

Soon, one of the mirror screens lit up as it showcased an old man who had the cultivation of the peak grandmaster realm. He shouted at a young man who was around 18-20 years.

‘Grandpa, you can’t. If you kill it, you will be cursed by the Heavens and die during the lightning tribulation.’

The young man panicked as he tried to stop his grandfather.

‘It is better to be cursed by the heavens; instead of dying due to old age. Many cultivator’s fears going against the Heavens; however, I, Carl Ashvalor, will be going against the heavens…Haha.’

As for the old man, he replied to his grandson as he started laughing like a maniac.

‘Huh? So, the heart of the Heavenly four eared mouse can be used to break through to the immortal realm. No wonder, it is protected by the heavens.’

Henrick, who was watching their conversation from the endless space, became surprised when he thought about it.

Even though Henrick didn’t know what happened to the grandfather and grandson duo prior to the scene shown on the screen, he was sure about one thing.

It was that the old man must have reached the peak of the grand master realm and a bottleneck must have appeared making it impossible to break into the immortal realm.

Since there is a death for everyone, the old man’s time might be coming near. So, he wanted to kill the Heavenly four eared mouse and go against the heavens just for the sake of breaking into the immortal realm.

‘First, I will eat its heart and then deal with the heavens.’

Soon, Henrick heard the old man speak to the small pure-white furred mouse which was imprisoned in a special type of cage.

‘Thud thud thud’

Just when the old man was about to kill the mouse, the door to the room in which they were standing was slammed by someone repeatedly.

‘Old master, it is me. Open the door, there is an emergency.’

The old man raised his eyebrows as he turned to look at the door and signalled his grandson to open the door because the one who knocked on the door was none other than their loyal servant.

Nodding his head, the young man opened the door only to see an old man who was completely covered in blood.

‘Old master, you need to escape from here with the young master. The kingdom sent an army to take the Heavenly four eared mouse we found in the great black moon forest.’

‘Thud’

As soon as he finished his words, the old servant who entered the room fell to the ground.

“What?”

The young man was scared to shit when he saw the second most powerful cultiviator in their family die just like that.

That’s right!

The old man had a golden sword pierced in his back.

‘Grandson, I am entrusting our Ashvalor family to you. Stay safe and never think about revenge.’

Compared to the young man, the old man, Carl Ashvalor was very calm and without wasting any time, he crushed the pendant hanging around his neck as he said those words to his grandson.

‘Swoosh’

Soon, a portal opened in front of the old man as the old man asked his grandson to enter it.

‘Also, take this thing with you.’

While saying that, he gave the special cage to the young man.

‘Grandpa, just throw it aside and come with me. Let’s go.’

However, the young man didn’t take the Heavenly four eared mouse; instead, he asked the old man to enter the portal along with him.

The young man was furious when he saw the Heavenly four eared mouse because it was the reason their family was about to get destroyed.

‘Idiot. That portal can allow a single human.’

The old man shook his head as he hurriedly explained, ‘No matter how long it takes, you have to make that thing acknowledge as your master.  Promise me.’

‘But grandpa, without you…’

‘Shut up…just promise me and enter the portal. You are the head of the Ashvalor family after today. So, make our family rise in the world this portal takes you to.’

As soon as he finished his words, the old man stuffed the special cage into his grandson’s hands before pushing him into the portal.

‘Grandpa’

The young man didn’t expect his grandfather to push all of a sudden, so he could not help but shout as loudly as possible.

‘Puchi’

Just as he was pushed, the young man saw a golden sword pierce into his grandfather; however, he saw a smile on his grandfather’s face.

At the same time, the mirror screen in which Henrick was watching stopped showing it.

‘What the hell?’

As for Henrick who was watching everything could not help but curse and thought, ‘That old man named Carl Ashvalor just thought to kill the Heavenly four eared mouse but his entire family was destroyed along with him except for one young man.’
