Chapter 2: The Second Letter from the Father

Forcibly suppressing the excitement in his heart, Ye Li continued to look down along the letterhead.

“...... It was my third year away from home.

In the first two years, I came out of Shanhai County and traveled all the way to the east.

At that time, whenever I passed through a place, I would stop for a period of time to observe the customs around me and learn from some well-known spirit rune masters of the same level.

During that time, I met and made a lot of friends, and I had a very fulfilling and enjoyable time along the way.

In the third year, I traveled to another place east of Shanhai County, Fulong County, which is separated by seven counties.

As usual, I wanted to find a place to stay near one of the cities, and then take some tasks at the Chamber of Commerce to earn cultivation resources.

However, on the way to Golden Dragon City, I accidentally saw a handsome young man who was besieged by seven spirit rune masters in the late stage of the Spirit Sea Stage.

The boy looked younger than me, but his strength had reached the peak of the early stage of the Spirit Sea Stage, but under the siege of the seven, he could only rely on a rather obtainable defensive talisman to hold on, and the situation at that time was already precarious.

Originally, one of the taboos of wandering the rivers and lakes was to meddle in things, and I was only at the peak of the early stage of the Linghai period at that time, and I was only in the middle of the Linghai period next to the side, and I was not an opponent of seven people at all.

But when I saw the pure eyes of the boy full of desire to survive, I could no longer stand idly by.

At that time, relying on a sudden sneak attack, and I had a rune treasure that increased my speed, I managed to save the seriously injured boy, and escaped the pursuit with him and hid in a hidden cave on the outskirts of Golden Dragon City.

In the mood of saving people to the end, I took care of the boy until he recovered from his injuries, and then I was ready to leave.

In gratitude for saving my life, the boy told me his true identity, and that he was your mother-in-law, who was proficient in disguise.

Your mother ran away from home to escape marriage, and the reason why she was hunted down was because she accidentally got a map of the ruins, which was recorded on another piece of vellum in the box.

After your mother recovered, she asked me to explore the ruins together, and I naturally had no reason to refuse.

In order to wait for the ruins to open, the two of us stayed in Fulong County for a long time, and after both of us advanced to the middle of the Spirit Sea Period, we set out on the road to the ruins.

However, we both underestimated the enemy's determination to find us, and on the way to the ruins, we were both discovered by the other.

After chasing all the way, the two of us hid in the ruins, but fortunately we had a map in our hands and had a certain understanding of the situation in the ruins.

With the help of the internal mechanisms and various tests, we were severely injured and finally killed the other seven spirit runemasters.

I was so badly injured that I was almost incurable, and after discovering that I had two kinds of runic roots, yin and water, your mother taught me a set of secret methods handed down by her family.

In the most core area of the ruins, there is a large Yin-Yang Heaven Casting Furnace, which should have been built by the past owner there in order to reach the high-grade spiritual elixir when the children of the sect or family break through the elixir period.

There is also a small tripod in front of the Great Yin Yang Heaven Casting Furnace, which is used to hold the Heaven Casting Spirit Pulp that flows out after refining the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi of the Great Yin Yang Heaven Casting Heaven Furnace.

After your mother divided the Heaven Casting Spirit Pulp with me, in order to save my life, the two of us jumped into the Great Yin and Yang Heaven Casting Furnace to fight against the power of the furnace refining with a secret method.

Relying on the help of the Heaven Casting Spirit Pulp, the two of us had Yang and Fire Talisman Roots, and the other had Yin and Water Talisman Roots, and successfully formed the Yin and Yang Water and Fire Fetal Yuan Array in your mother's secret method.

Not only were the injuries of the two of us healed, but we also took this opportunity to directly cross the late stage of the Linghai Stage from the middle of the Spirit Sea Stage, and directly advanced to the Spirit Pill Stage, and both of them achieved the top grade Spirit Pill.

What makes us gain more is that your mother and my spiritual roots actually fused with each other in the Yin and Yang Water and Fire Fetal Yuan Array, and as a result, I got your mother's yang and fire rune roots, and your mother also got my yin and water rune roots.

After that, we stayed in the ruins for a long time, successfully passed all the tests of the organs inside, and obtained a large number of cultivation resources.

The most important thing is that the elixir we obtained that can increase the rune roots allowed the two of us to collect all the other rune roots except for the wind and thunder rune roots to reach the Yin and Yang Five Elements Gathering.

You should also know the rest of the matter, your mother and I shared life and death, mutual affection, and finally married in private.

After nearly two years of wandering, your mother became pregnant with you, and we returned to the Ye family.

The reason why I told you about the ruins is that I hope you can go to the ruins if you have the opportunity to take a look, although there are no pills in it, but there are still a lot of spiritual herbs left.

Some of these herbs can add rune root attributes, but they haven't matured back then, so your mother and I didn't take them away.

And if you happen to reach the peak of the Spirit Sea Stage when you go in, you can also use the help of the Heaven Casting Spirit Pulp and the Great Yin and Yang Heaven Casting Heaven Furnace to perfectly advance to the Spirit Pill Stage.

Of course, if you don't reach the peak of the Spirit Sea Stage when you go in, you can just take the Heaven Casting Spirit Pulp away, after all, you don't have the opportunity for me and your mother to form the Yin Yang Water Fire Fetal Yuan Array at that time, if the strength is not enough for the peak of the Spirit Sea Period, the Great Yin Yang Heaven Casting Furnace will refine you into qi.

Ye Li my son, I have told you all about the most secret past of the year, and it is up to you to decide whether you want to go on a journey or not.

I am not a good father who cannot prevent your mother from being taken away, nor can I let you have a complete family like other children.

But you have to believe that whether your mother and I are by your side or not, we will always love you.

The piece of vellum I left behind contains a map of the location of the ruins, and a summary of the map inside the ruins, which you can use to find the ruins.

Keep in mind that this site is only open in April every year, and if you miss it, you'll have to wait until the next year to enter.

In the end, I hope that you can be strong and brave to live well, to chase your own life dreams, I will definitely watch you from heaven and bless you with peace in life. ”

The letter is no longer written here, and the handwriting on it is as weak and skewed as the first letter, all left by Ye Hao in the last days of his life.

When Ye Li saw the end of the letter, his tears couldn't help but fall again, he had lived with his father for more than ten years, and seeing his father weaken day by day until he died, the pain in his heart was now only understood by himself.

Ye Li read the letter several times with great cherishment, as if he missed him through his father's handwriting.

After a long time, he took a deep breath, folded the letter again, and put it in the box.
