Aiden nodded silently.
According to Ward Atrez's words, he should have beco number one of the Phenonon Ranking a thousand years ago by relying on this Corpse Mountain Blood Sea!
Although Chaos Ocean was the number one phenonon throughout history, the ranking on the Phenonon Ranking wasn't determined solely on one's phenonon, but the strength of the martial artist as well.
Even for the sa Martial Master phenonon, the strength displayed by two martial artists releasing it would be worlds apart if they had different levels of comprehension towards it.
Phenonon Ranking No. 3.
Reverend Jiu, Green Lantern Ancient Scripture.
The appearance of the ancient scripture accompanied by a green lantern booms loudly in the world across all directions, incinerating all living beings and suppressing all demons, ghosts, and beasts. Executed to its peak, it can be considered a top ten skill on the Phenonon Ranking!
There were a bunch of other Martial Master phenonons behind the Phenonon Ranking and they were dizzying. Aiden was extrely curious as he hadn't heard of them before.
Eternal Kingdom, andering River Sunset, Crystal Divine Light, Underworld, Thousand Swords United, Amplifying Fog, Limitless Hell, Endless River Mountains, Eastern Purple energy, Seven Floor Pagoda, Holy Radiance, Incinerating Embers…
Every single Martial Master phenonon had a detailed introduction.
Aiden continued browsing and could roughly deduce the sects or factions the phenonons belonged to judging from their nas and descriptions.
For example, Crystal Divine Light should be a Martial Master phenonon of Crystal Palace Sect.
The description displayed high regards for Crystal Divine Light and if it was released at its peak, it could be considered as a top ten on the Phenonon Ranking!
Underworld and Limitless Hell should be Martial Master phenonons of the dark sects.
As for Seven Floor Pagoda and Holy Radiance, those should be phenonons of the Buddhist monasteries.
Gradually, Aiden realized that the Phenonon Ranking was mostly occupied by the super sects of the righteous and demonic sects as well as the various powerful factions of this world.
Of the top hundred or so spots on the Phenonon Rankings, there were only around 60 Martial Master phenonons.
Most of them were repeated, coming from different martial artists of the sa sect.
After reading through the Phenonon Ranking, Aiden did not discover any Martial Master phenonon similar to his.
Frowning slightly, he felt sowhat dejected.
"Eh?"
Suddenly, his expression changed.
At the end of the Phenonon Ranking was another page.
When Aiden flipped over, he saw that there were also so Martial Master phenonons listed on the last page.
Those were phenonons that had appeared once without reappearing or had gone extinct.
First row.
World Cleansing Green Lotus. Originally a phenonon of South Wind Monastery, the eternal green lotus glowed brightly and had a terrifying strength that could cleanse all evil in the world. This was sothing that could be considered as a top ten on the Phenonon Ranking!
However, 10,000 years ago, the Northern Region t with a catastrophe and one of the largest empires in history was destroyed along with South Wind Monastery, leading to the loss of the World Cleansing Green Lotus secret technique.
At that point, Aiden was enlightened.
"So, one of the monasteries that were destroyed in this catastrophe so many years ago was South Wind Monastery. They were also the only ones with this strange and seemingly incredible technique."
Aiden shook his head, a little stunned.
Now that thousands of years have passed, how many people could still rember that flourishing empire and monastery?
If that was the case for a destroyed super sect, a fallen paragon would probably be lost in the sands of ti and be forgotten by everyone after a hundred years.
As Aiden continued reading, he could not help but shudder as his eyes lit up.
Primordial Divine Turtle. An amphibious divine being that is lost.
Primordial Soaring Serpent. A fire divine being that is lost.
Legend has it that in the primordial era, the thousands of races fought one another and all life was in turmoil. Blood was shed everywhere as corpses lined the ground.
That massive battle caused the skies to topple and the ground to collapse. Void currents surged everywhere; teors crashed; the ground caved in while lava spurted everywhere, killing countless lives.
Aiden was in deep thought at this point.
The battle royale of the primordial era was sothing that he had also heard of briefly from the elderly old man that protected Tai-Liu of the Azure Myst Sect ntioned before. However, he did not know the reason for it, nor could he provide any aningful detail.
Still, Aiden knew that this was sothing that could very well be connected to the tragic past of his own people… Despite of them being in different worlds, he could instinctively feel a connection between the two events.
What he knew was that the battle was the reason why only a hundred races were left with thousands of races going extinct. Because of that, his people and the Primals have been wiped out…
Aiden continued reading.
Finally, that battle alard two divine beasts of the primordial era, the turtle and serpent to descend at the sa ti!
The divine turtle managed to carry the heavens with its shell and suppress the void currents with its limbs.
The soaring serpent rose from beneath the ground. With a snake's head, anaconda's body, dragon scales, phoenix wings, no horns nor legs, and strength comparable to a True Dragon, it devoured all the lava and suppressed the volcanoes everywhere.
The appearance of the turtle and snake saved all lives!
Experts of the mortal races who witnessed that were moved and created the two phenonons by comprehending them.
Throughout history, there would occasionally be martial artists who managed to comprehend the two Martial Master phenonons of the primordial era. However, none of them could display the sa might of the past.
There were rumors that when the Phenonon Ranking was just created, the two Martial Master phenonons were listed among the top ten.
Upon seeing this, Aiden suddenly had an epiphany.
He finally understood the aning behind the two phenonons.
When he was forming his core, his inner core contained the energies of fire and water which were starkly different. Both of them clashed repeatedly with neither side willing to relent.
As such, the two energies intensified continuously while contesting against one another!
Finally, with the risk of Aiden's body exploding, the two different energies finally stabilized and reached a balance.
At that mont, the energies of fire and water were already at their limits.
That was also the reason why Aiden managed to witness the two shocking scenes of the primordial era!
The divine turtle represented water while the soaring serpent represented fire.
The reason why the Primordial Divine Turtle and Primordial Soaring Serpent were not in the previous iteration of the Phenonon Ranking wasn't because they weren't strong enough, but because both of them had gone extinct for many years.
Smiling gently, Aiden felt a sense of pride.
No matter the past of the two Martial Master phenonons, now that the both of them were in his hands in this generation, he was certain that he would definitely be able to release them to an unparalleled degree!
Aiden sorted out the storage bags of Cain Khoren and the other four once more.
There weren't many noteworthy treasures, only so basic elixirs, so ager form of currency, and so artifact weapons – none of them interested Aiden.
Right now, what he wanted the most were secret skill manuals regarding the true secrets of the Inner Core.
The Martial Practitioner realm had the Martial Practitioner manual.
The Martial Knight realm had the Martial Knight manual.
There should be a martial technique for the Martial Master realm as well.
Martial techniques were extrely important to a martial artist's martial speed and rise in strength.
For example, as long as one were to train one of Azure Myst Sect's three secret skills diligently and comprehend it, they would be able to unlock even deeper parts of their Cores and grow even stronger as a result!
That was sothing rather impressive before reaching higher realms.
With a high end martial technique, a martial artist could halve his effort on his Martial Master realm martial.
However, Azure Myst Sect did not contain any top-tier martial techniques for the Dao of the core.
After the massive battle at Azure Myst Sect ntioned this to Aiden.
The circumstances of Aiden's core formation were rather special as well.
The two different energies of fire and water clashed within his inner core.
Although he managed to suppress fire and water while subduing the turtle and serpent thanks to his strong determination and terrifying physique, it was still a latent danger.
Without the help of a powerful martial technique for the Dao of the core, Aiden was worried that he would run into trouble in the future.
The fact that there weren't any secret martial techniques within the storage bags of the now late Cain Khoren and the others was sothing Aiden expected as well.
Storage bags mostly contained consumables such as elixirs and spirit stones or spirit weapons used for killing. Most people would not put their secret martial techniques in storage bags.
However, from Lian Hen's storage bag, apart from the Phenonon Ranking, Aiden discovered a ssaging crystal as well.
The content within stirred his interest.
It indicated that there was a dangerous ground known as the Great Forbidden Ruins.
10,000 years ago, the capital of that great empire was destroyed overnight and was reduced to ruins with countless living beings implicated in the tragedy.
Alongside the capital there were two great monasteries of the ti, South Wind Monastery and Daring Monastery.
Many treasures were buried within the ruins.
Apart from miraculous elixirs and spirit weapons, there were also lost martial techniques.
It was said that the number one secret skill of the core, Mystic Golden Lotus Technique, was buried along with South Wind Monastery in the ruins. However, no one managed to find it.
