Realms In The Firmament Chapter 1038: The Fourth Person

Chapter 1038: The Fourth Person

Translator: RITF_Rain Editor: Chrissy

It wasn’t until this moment that Xuan Bing realized how dangerous the beast crowd was. The beasts were so strong that Han Bingxue alone could never keep Ye Xiao safe. She figured she should have gone with them at the beginning. Besides, she was surprised about Erhuo. [Since when did he have such a strange cat? Why is it so overwhelming?]

The high-level beasts attacking in a crowd, even Xuan Bing would have to retreat. Erhuo actually commanded the beasts! That was amazing!

Now… Ye Xiao was safe, but he might still be in danger later on. The fourth layer of Mountain of All Medicines was somewhere nobody ever entered. According to Han Bingxue’s words, ‘Nine-layer Vally Awaits Monarch’ had two important points. No matter whether Ye Xiao was or not the monarch it was awaiting, it was obvious the mountain had nine layers.

The fourth layer where Ye Xiao stayed at the moment was already somewhere nobody ever reached in the history of Qing-Yun Realm. There were still five more layers upon the fourth. Even though the fourth layer was safe, what about the upper five? Were they all safe?

However, Xuan Bing understood that no matter how angry or anxious she was, it wouldn’t help Ye Xiao. In fact, even if she followed him, there was barely anything she could do. She could only get to the third layer. It was the cat who helped Ye Xiao get into the fourth layer. Xuan Bing could never defeat the beast crowd. The fourth layer, as well as the other higher layers, was also a place that was far beyond her capability.

No matter how anxious she was, she could only wait with patience!

…

On the other side, Ye Xiao finally touched the purple handprint.

When he put his hand on the handprint, he found that the handprint was exactly the size of his hand. His hand fit into the handprint perfectly.

He was surprised. The platform suddenly had a strong absorption power.

Ye Xiao felt the energy of East-rising Purple Qi running out to the platform. It reminded him the words ‘operate the energy in dantian in the number of nine’. He hurriedly ran the spiritual power inside.

Suddenly, a purple light rushed up on the platform, and it raised Ye Xiao’s hand up three inches. It actually created a somewhat purple glow between his hand and the platform, which bonded the hand and the handprint tightly.

Ye Xiao looked closer and he was shocked.

The creases on the handprint were exactly the same with his hand!

That was a perfect handprint of his hand!

Even the creases on every finger were the same with his! There was not even a tiny difference.

Till now, Ye Xiao felt terrified!

Two hands in the same size were not so unbelievable. However, if the creases were the same, it was not a reasonable thing anymore!

As Ye Xiao knew, everybody had different creases on the hand. Nobody had the same hand creases with another in the entire history!

However, there was a handprint with exactly the same creases as his hand.

[This… This is exactly my own handprint!]

[What is going on?]

Ye Xiao started to think. He suddenly remembered what Han Bingxue said. ‘Can I understand it as… this Nine-layer Valley, no matter what it is, has been waiting for you, the Xiao Monarch, to come?’

He stared at the purple handprint and started shaking.

[Is it… is it?]

However, even if what Han Bingxue said was right, he was not Xiao Monarch anymore. He was Ye Xiao, and his hand was not the hand of Xiao Monarch!

…

When he was lost in thoughts, two streams of purple qi suddenly ran into each other. The purple qi that rose from the platform started to get into Ye Xiao’s hand. The purple qi that came from inside Ye Xiao was pouring into the platform at the same time.

He felt a special power.

The power was withy and pliable. His hand was hit away all of a sudden. It was not connected to the platform anymore.

As his hand left the platform, the purple platform suddenly dispersed and became a mass of rolling purple qi. The handprint, which confused Ye Xiao, disappeared at the same time.

The mass of purple qi from the platform suddenly rushed up to the sky and became a smoke pillar which was over ten meters wide, sticking to the sky.

He had been pouring out energy since he touched the handprint. It didn’t last long, but he felt exhausted at the moment. He was sweating and staggering. He was so tired that he wanted to sit down on the floor and gasp for breath.

He firmly stood and took a deep breath, running the martial art to recover himself.

When he was trying to recover himself, where the platform appeared and disappeared, the dense purple qi started to show up again. More words were showing up in the air.

When he saw the first few words, he knew that what was going to happen would astonish him so much.

‘The fourth person, are you ready?’

These were the first several words.

Ye Xiao frowned and looked at the words. He was lost. He had no idea what it meant.

It seemed to be a simple question if not for the special environment he stayed in. When people were doing one job, and the first three men all failed… then he was the fourth. That was easy to understand. ‘Are you ready?’ That was reasonable too since the first three failed!

However, it was a different story when he was in such a weird situation!

That was ridiculous!

Why was he the fourth person? The fourth person to do what? Those were the two main questions.

That handprint was exactly the same with his handprint. That was impossible to explain already!

Did the three more men before him have the same handprints with that purple handprint?

That was beyond human recognition!

Even if he was the fourth person and it was his destiny, what should he do? There were three men who failed the task, then it must be a difficult task. Was he able to get it done?

He was always brave and bold. Even when he was dying in the previous life, he never felt scared. However, at this moment, he felt terrified. He was shaking!

That was human instinct to fear the unknown. He knew that there was something existing, but he just didn’t know what it was. He knew that it must be something he couldn’t handle. It was reasonable that he felt scared!

‘Nine-layer Valley has come through nine vicissitudes. Finally, you are here.’ The words kept showing up. When the new words showed up, the previous ones disappeared. When the third line was up, the first line had vanished. The first word of the second line started to blur.
