The Seven Deadly Child
Narrow Aisle

(Central Region Frozen Pine Forest)

"Wellhhhhh…..!"

"Whoever, help me..!!"

A little girl screamed in fear. In front of him at this moment, a Spirit Beast like a panther was walking over.

The girl's knee appears to have been scratched. Before this, he ran frantically chased by the spirit beast. It ends with tripping over the roots of the tree, and falling down hard. Making him unable to stand up again, could only scream for help in fear.

Booommm…..!!!

However, before the Spirit Beast was about to leap at the little girl, a young woman who was seen starting to grow up, quickly ran out from behind the trees and kicked the spirit beast hard.

The spirit beast groaned for a while before it rose with great difficulty, then looked towards the figure that was kicking it.

Seeing that gaze, the woman immediately let out her initial Immortal-stage aura.

The spirit beast that only had D-class cultivation immediately trembled in fear. Feeling no match for the woman who kicked him, his wild instinct naturally told him to run away. He ran in fear into the depths of the forest.

"Yepanaka.kkkk….!!!" The little girl cried out in relief when she saw the figure that came to her aid.

"Sister, what are you doing here? You're following me?" The woman looked worried and angry.

"I'm justa…"

"This place is very dangerous for you.."

"Forget it, I'll take you back now..!!" His impact again after cutting off his own words

The little girl could only put on a sad face then lowered her head, not daring to answer when she saw her big brother was so angry.

"Hahhh, you know this place is very dangerous. Other than spirit beasts, this place was also the territory of the Ironhead house.!!"

Hearing Ironhead's house words, the girl immediately raised her head, she looked extremely scared and traumatized.

Seeing the expression of the little girl, the woman immediately felt regret for calling the house Ironhead. He began to hug his sister.

"I'm sorry, I don't intend to make you remember that incident again."

The little girl did not reply to the woman's words, only started to hug her tighter.

"Here it is, we should leave this place immediately. The commotion must have attracted attention" said the woman.

He put the little girl onto his back, carried the little girl, and began to leave the place.

***

"Sister, think about your decision again." The little girl said to her brother.

The little girl was still in her brother's arms, they were walking down the path of the frozen pine forest when she started asking questions.

Hearing her sister's words, the woman immediately stopped her footsteps.

"Sister, I won't change my decision, I won't marry that bastard..!!"

"But kakk…."

"Already, with your age, you won't understand. I hope you don't have the same fate as me."

However, just after the woman was about to start continuing on her way, suddenly footsteps came from the direction of the path in front of her.

A group of people were seen walking towards him. From the clothes they were wearing, the woman immediately realized that the group in front of her was a member of Ironhead house who was on patrol.

'It's terrible!' muttered the woman. His face soon became bad.

He immediately stepped back. Leaving the path, running into the forest in panic. Regretful that he had accidentally lowered his alertness, so that he did not realize the group had come.

"Sister, what's wrong?"

The young girl who was still unaware of the situation, asked confusedly to her brother.

But before her brother gave an answer, a voice sounded from behind them.

"Young girl, why is it in such a hurry? Stop talking for a minute. This uncle won't hurt you."

The little girl would look back before the voice of the older sister snapped at her.

"Don't look back!"

Hearing her brother's words, the girl realized the situation was not good. He obeyed the orders of the elder brother, starting to hug his back tightly.

The woman immediately increased her speed. Panic runs into the depths of the forest.

(In the passageway of the Mysterious Gorge)

Theo was currently walking down a small uphill aisle, following the back of his master. It had been more than 5 hours since they had walked uphill entering the hallway, but had not been able to see the end of this passage.

In this narrow passageway, which was only enough for one adult male to enter, he could not train with Baal as before. Theo who was getting bored immediately opened a conversation with his master.

"Master, what kind of formation is actually inside this abyss?"

"Why was this abyss before able to mysteriously open and close itself? though we don't see anyone in the abyss controlling the formation."

Theo was still curious as to why this abyss could suddenly appear before him a few years ago.

"Actually the formation inside this abyss is not too complicated. When it comes to understanding the mechanisms at the center of the formation, everything will be simple."

"Before, I've told you to dismantle this ancient formation several times, have you still not been able to understand the mechanism?" Ask Tiankong.

"I understand it, what I don't understand is why is this abyss opening on its own?" Answer Theo.

"Anyone who set up a formation in this ravine, he definitely intended to protect the Siver Turtle egg that was in the central space of the formation." Tiankong began to explain.

"The Silver Turtle Egg naturally let out streams of powerful ancient iron mana. Therefore, each period of time, the egg will periodically remove the iron mana that accumulates in it."

"Where the iron that comes out of the egg will then mix with the mana outside, then make it an impure cloudy mana."

"Because periodically continue to remove excess mana, where the turbid iron in this room continues to increase and accumulate."

"When this turbid iron begins to accumulate excessively, this will harm the Silver Turtle's egg itself, affecting its growth."

"Therefore, the person set up a formation mechanism that could set up automatically to open all the formations in this abyss when the pile where the turbid iron had already reached a certain limit in the room."

"When the murky mana that was inside this room had already started to diminish, the formation mechanism would automatically start to close this abyss again."

"That is the reason why this abyss can open and close itself. Didn't you say earlier, there was a powerful ancient mana stream coming out from inside this cave when it first reached the bottom of the ravine?"

"En.." Theo nodded. Now he knows what happened.

"Then master...the strange skeleton that was inside the coffin?"

"From the things they left behind, I think they're just low-class soldiers stationed here just in case. Looks like they've been assigned to keep the eggs to death."

"And from the form of the guard warrior skeleton, my guess is that the expert who set up this formation came from the era of emptiness."

"This expert probably set up this formation when the era of emptiness was already on the edge, destroyed by Sage Lord Salomon."

"Somehow he was so eager to protect this egg, willing to set up a formation of this size, and put two guards to guard the egg to death."

"Even feeling that it wasn't enough, you could see he was like accidentally planting a Gravity Fruit around the cave entrance. So that no one can enter it."

"Because even if the abyss opens due to an automatic mechanism, anyone who tries to descend into this abyss will find himself depressed by the terrifying gravitational attraction of the Gravity Fruit. Dead depressed Gravity."

"Even a Spirit Beast of the class of Raging Ape died instantly when it landed at the bottom of the abyss. So, arguably, this expert had prepared all that to protect the Silver Turtle egg."

"You can imagine how much this expert wanted to protect the egg, even he wore the Gravity Fruit, which was also one of the Ancient Thing, just to become a trap at the entrance. Not to mention there were still many other trap formations inside the cave."

"Maybe this expert is the previous master of the Silver Turtle. If it was like that, I understood all the things he did, I would do the same if I were that person." Tiankong closed his analysis.

After closing his words, Tiankong fell into a deep contemplation. His eyes glared forward wryly, looking melancholic. He was like remembering something that made him sad and sorry.

"Theo, you must take good care of your Guardian Beast! think of it like your own son, whom you have hard-fought." Tiankong said suddenly. But the advice was as it was given to himself.

Theo who heard the master's words, immediately saw the state of the Silver Turtle that was in the blood seal tattoo. Theo's consciousness entered the blood seal, within which he could see the tiny turtle was sound asleep with a plain face.

Seeing the innocent face of the sleeping little turtle, somehow Theo's heart became warm. There was a feeling of wanting to take care of, love, and protect that was very strong in his heart.

There was a push in his heart that made him not want to see this little turtle get hurt. Theo stroked the head of the small turtle for a while, before pulling his consciousness again.

"Master, when exactly did this little turtle wake up?"

Before, the master explained. Every Spirit Beast that had performed its first blood contract, would fall asleep in the contract seal. This process happened because the Spirit Beast that was performing the blood contract, started to bond with its master's body. Hence, it took them a while to adjust to his master's body.

This was the initial process of establishing a connection between the Spirit Beast and its master. A normal spirit beast usually takes about a few days. However since this Silver Turtle was a Guardian Beast, which was even higher in rank than the Ancient Beast, the duration of their time asleep was unpredictable.

"From my experience, about a week away. However, I cannot guarantee its accuracy, because my guardian beast was not this Silver Turtle." replied Tiankong.

As Theo and his master finished their discussion of the Silver Turtle, they began to be able to see the end of this passageway.

"We're finally at the end of this damn hallway! my body has begun to stiffen in this narrow place." Theo.

"Don't complain too much! come here quickly! I'll give you instructions on how to open this last formation."

Although Tiankong was skilled at dismantling formations, he had already begun to watch the hundreds of formations that were within this abyss.

With his master's instructions, it only took a while for Theo to dismantle the seal formation that was before him.

With the unraveling of the seal formation, the stone wall before Theo began to shake and open.

(The Cliffed area, The central region of the Frozen Pine Forest)

Two girls are currently on the side of a cliff.

Surrounded by a group of men, the girl who looked more mature lay scarred all over her body, several men standing in front of her with a gaze full of evil intentions.

While the other girl who looks is still about 12 years old, is currently kneeling not far from the position of a more mature girl. His eyes continuously shed tears, continuously begging and begging to some other man who was clasping his hands.

"I beg you not to hurt my brother…!!" Said the little girl in tears, her voice very hoarse.

"Just relax, we have no intention of hurting your brother at all, had you guys been obedient from the beginning, he wouldn't have ended that way" said the man who held the little girl's hand

The man then began to smile wickedly and continued, "We will even give pleasure that your brother will never forget!"

Hearing the man's words, the little girl's lips immediately trembled, and then her whole body trembled violently, her face showing an extremely frightened expression. He seemed to remember a terrible event.

"Don't come any closer, don't touch me! you savages..!!!"

When the little girl was still trembling in fear, she could hear her brother's voice start screaming.

"Hahaha, young lady, why is that fear? I'm sure you'll like it after this."

"Yes yes, you must like it."

"Have not spoken much, I can't help it anymore. Who's the first one?"

The three men surrounding the girl began to come closer to her. While the girl who had been seriously injured could only scream at the men who approached her.

The little girl who saw the incident immediately started shouting again.

"Don't touch my brother….! don't hurt my brother…!!"

He kept shouting and screaming, not knowing what he could do.

"You naughty girl! shutup! don't make me hit you! "

Seeing the little girl keep screaming. The man holding him started to snatch. If he doesn't have to, he doesn't want to hurt this little girl. They intend to sell this girl to a slave trader. Therefore, he did not want to make scratches on the body of this little girl, keeping the price good.

However, the little girl did not hear him. He was constantly shouting like crazy.

When the man who was holding her back started to get annoyed and was about to slap the little girl's face, the cliff behind them suddenly started to tremble.

Everyone instantly fell silent and looked towards the cliff behind them. Just telling a little girl who seemed to care about nothing, kept shouting for her brother.

The cliffs shook for a while before stopping. Along with the cessation of vibration, a door hole appeared on the side of the cliff.

From inside the door hole, stepped out A young man with white hair and clothes.
