Allen opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling for a long time, He should have been sleeping at this time, but for some reason, he couldn't. After thinking for a while and checking the time, Allen heaved a sigh and went to take a shower. He put on a sports outfit and decided to go for a run to clear his mind.

Allen heaved a sigh and went to take a shower, putting on a sports outfit, he decided to go for a run to clear his mind.

The sky was still dark, and the stars shone brightly, even though the sun would rise soon, Winter was as cold as always. Heavy clouds covered the moon, and cascading snow covered the streets, creating a beautiful white veil on the sides and a near-transparent layer of ice in the middle.

Allen put on his headphones and played the same old song he listened to every time. He matched his speed with the gradual rise of the song's tempo, smoothly transitioning from walking to jogging, then running at an increasing speed.

With the song's rising pace, his steps increased in speed, and moments later, Allen was sprinting at his fastest.

The cold wind hit his face, and the cold air entered his lungs, causing a sharp pain. The sound of the cutting wind overwhelmed the music he was listening to.

With the intense movement, Allen's body temperature increased, When his rising temperature encountered the cold outside temperature, a vague white mist came out of his body, the result of the heat he exuded and the wintery cold weather.

At the moment Allen was sprinting at the fastest speed he could without utilizing a whisp of spiritual energy, yet he looked like a blur to others.

Carefully, Allen revolved his soul energy. Within his consciousness, an infant version of Allen floated with closed eyes.

The Nascent Soul projection opened its eyes in the consciousness space. In the outside world, spiritual sense erupted from Allen's glabella and surrounded his body.

expanding to his surroundings. The spiritual senses covered a radius of a little more than nine meters, making everything within that range clear as glass for him.

As he visualized a mental image of the area covered by his senses, Allen cleared his mind, focusing on the mental image projected in his consciousness.

-

In situations where a cultivator relies on their spiritual senses to perceive the world around them instead of their physical eyes, they are said to be using their mind's eye. The strength of one's soul determines the clarity and accuracy of this vision. -

As Allen breathed, he absorbed spiritual energy that circulated throughout his body, as it was gradually refined. Once this spiritual energy reached a certain purity, it would be stored in his spiritual core located within his dantian.

Energy flowed in and out of Allen's dantian, circulating through his meridians and reaching every part of his body. With the increase in the flow of energy, Allen's running speed increased until he reached a point where his figure was little more than a blur, streaking across the landscape.

Closing his eyes, Allen relied on his spiritual sense to navigate at high speeds. With a clear mental image in his mind's eye, Allen moved swiftly without the worry of obstacles in his path.

The sound of music faded to the background. In its place foreign images and scenes appeared in his mind. dazed Allen felt as if he was in a dream-like state.

The vague intermittent sound of two different people arguing accompanied by a random ticking sound of objects colliding resounded, far away their figure could barely be seen, thanks to the stormy frozen winds,

Despite being unsure of his surroundings, Allen remained calm and collected. He had seen this view in his dreams many times before and although it often felt too realistic for a normal dream, he had never been able to explain its significance.

As Allen observed his surrounding, a white wolf caught his attention. The beast was curled up, sound asleep with its body partially covered in snow.

Stolen novel; please report.

....

In the moments before sunrise at the Great Cyrus mansion, Seraphina stood on her balcony with her eyes alight with excitement for the future ahead. She held in her hands a book entitled 'The History of the Myriad Dao Realm,' its pages filled with the ancient tales of the great heroes of the Myriad Dao realm.

Like Allen Sera had a sleepless night, as she was playing a scene in her head over and over again.

It was after her spar with Davina's clone, after the cheering from the crowd ended and met with Davina..., she still couldn't believe herself,

The light smile on the Davina's face as she asked if she was willing to become her disciple!.

Seraphina stood frozen in shock, her face a mask of confusion as she struggled to comprehend the current situation,

Seraphina's heart swelled with disbelief and elation as the person she admired most, the Celestial Empress, asked her to become her disciple. She couldn't help but think of her lifelong dream to join the Dark Rose, a group commanded by the Empress herself, just so she could learn from her.

It was safe to assume that every child of the Myriad Dao realm had grown up hearing about stories of the legendary empress who controlled flames.

The Sun Empress, from the moment she appeared to the present day, was hailed as the most powerful woman in the entire realm, and arguably one of the most terrifying beings in the Myriad Dao realm.

Davina, as the Empress, was revered by all and feared by the Empire's enemies. While she was known to strike fear into the hearts of her enemies, she was also known for her merciful and righteous characters.

However, one the other hand, Sebastien as the Emperor of the Celestial Dao Empire was know as an unmatched powerhouse either battlefields, political and military.

His enemies would be played to death or straight up disappear without a trace left.

With the two of them on the helm of the Empire they built the new rising yet most powerful influence of the Myriad Dao realm, arguably the soon to be crowned as the rulers of the realm, causing their fame to surpass the Four Ancient heroes.

The fire king of the Cyrus family, the Silver Witch of the Dawn family, the Golden King of the Earl family, and the Old Sage from the Augustine family.

Jointly they made the four great families, that was later renamed the Five Great Families due to the rise of the Aeon family who established the Celestial Dao Empire.

With the two of the Great families as subordinates, the Aeon's road to rule was a matter of time, of the territory of the Myriad Dao realm around 2/5 was ruled by the Celestial Empire, the other 2/5 was ruled by the other great families while the remaining 1/5 was ruled by other influences.

....

As he regained his senses, Allen realized that he had run farther than he had intended to.

Allen marvelled at the distance a late stage Nascent Soul cultivator could run in such period of time. The sun had just begun to rise over the horizon, illuminating the stunning view of the mountain range near the city, Despite his exhaustion, Allen couldn't help but smile as he soaked in the warmth of the sun's rays on his skin.

A half-hour later, Allen jogged his way back from his morning run. Traffic had started to increase with people going to work and school buses appearing. As he waited at a red light with a group of kindergarten children and their teacher,

Looking around, with his heightened senses Allen faintly heard the gradual nearing loud sound of a car's engine, out of boredom Allen started wondering what car it was as he looked to the side.

As the signal turned red and the cars stopped, the pedestrian light turned green, with the road suddenly cleared, one of the children darted forward excited to cross the street. Their accompanying teacher was preoccupied with his smartphone, oblivious to the happening around him.

With his spiritual senses spread, Allen was aware of everything in his surroundings,

From his side view Allen saw a speeding car hurtling towards the group of children with no intentions to slow down or stop.

Allen's gaze darted between the speeding car, the vulnerable children, and their teacher frozen in shock. Spiritual energy pulsed through his body as he quickly tapped the ground with his feet, propelling himself towards the children crossing the street.

Waving his hands, spiritual energy condensed into a protective bubble that enveloped the two children farthest from Allen before propelling them to safety on the other side of the street.

As Allen reached halfway the street he took the two children Infront of him in his hands, with a burst of energy, Allen propelled himself backwards with the two children in his arms.

Allen sensed a foreign spiritual energy contacting him, sending a short and concise message. The grave expression on Allen's face eased as he recognized the energy signature.

Suddenly, a figure flashed beside Allen and swiftly grabbed the remaining child while also pulling the teacher to safety.

As Allen reached the pavement with the two children in his arms, he was relieved to see the teacher and remaining child safely beside him, pulled to safety by a young man.

Allen looked up and met the gaze of the stranger who had helped him. In that moment, they shared a mutual understanding and relief that none had been hurt. As a smile spread across both of their faces.

The speeding car whizzed past, generating a strong gust of wind that Allen's clothes. Anger boiled inside him as he gazed at the car, memorizing the car's plate number.

Scowling " What was that idiot thinking, driving like a maniac? " anger was blazing in Allen's eyes.

Calming down, Allen turned his head to the side gazing at the young man " Nicholas, long time no see ".
