Chapter 574 - Glimpse Of The Past (1)

Swoosh~!
The blizzard-cold winds blew, and the world was suffused in soft snow, as far as the eye could see without change and all year round.
"Where is this?"
Leon suddenly found himself surrounded by mountains and snow after opening his eyes.
"Did I fail?" He thought.
He quickly realized his body had recovered without a single trace of any wound, and he could move freely without any limitations or impediments.
"My body shouldn't have recovered this perfectly if I had succeeded in comprehending the Profound Law of Life," Leon frowned before observing the snow world in his surroundings, "Is this afterlife?"
No one truly knew what lies on the other side of living after death. It was not like those that died could pass on the knowledge of what they experienced after death.
Leon knew reincarnation and transmigration were possible, but not everyone was fortunate to receive such lucky chances.
If they were not so fortunate, where do they go? What do they see? Was it like this snow world Leon sees in front of him?—full of cold and solitude?
"This place seems vaguely familiar…" Leon had a sudden realization and began to feel doubtful regarding the snow world.
He trekked through the snow for sometime before he spotted life in the snow world apart from himself.
In the distance, two people were also trekking through the snow in thick winter clothing—one adult and one child, to be exact.
When Leon saw their faces, Leon froze on the spot before he became emotional, "So that place is where I am…"
…
"Father, where are we going? It's cold around here," The boy complained while holding onto his father's hands. His teeth chattered, and frigid breath escaped as he was breathing.
Heinrich Escladus smiled warmly and said, "Endure it. If you can't stand it, channel your energy to resist the cold. Your cultivation is still low, but the refined fires of the [Divine Fiery God Manual] should help. There's something we need to find here, my son."
"I'm already channeling my energy, but it's not enough. I'm still cold," The boy continued to complain.
Heinrich Escladus glanced at his son acting spoiled before he sighed helplessly, "What am I going to do with you?"
Nevertheless, Heinrich Escladus picked up his son and carried him on his shoulders.
His son possesses a unique Yang constitution and practices a fire-attribute cultivation method. Anyone in the world can feel cold, except his son.
"Hehe, what are we looking for, father?" The boy asked.
"There are records of an ancient buddha sect that once existed somewhere in this snow region," Heinrich Escladus spoke while gazing at the snow, "We are looking for its entrance."
"And what will we do after we find it, father?" The boy asked curiously.
"The ancient buddha sect were masters of meditation and entering the tranquil state, keeping calm and making collected decisions. It is said that this is all due to the [Heart of Saint Mantra] they recite and practice."
"The [Heart of Saint Mantra]? But Father is already a saintly doctor and a Divine King. What do you need this technique for?"
"It's not for me," Heinrich Escladus pinched his son's tiny nose and said, "It's for you."
"For me?" The boy responded with surprise.
"Un," Heinrich nodded, "You're too easily distracted and playful, never able to stay focus for long. However, the [Heart of Saint Mantra] might be able to help..."
Suddenly, Heinrich Escladus paused his steps before the boy glanced ahead with confusion.
"Snow Tigers!" The boy exclaimed.
A group of small Snow Tigers could be seen following behind a bigger adult-size Snow Tiger just ahead of the father-son duo.
The adult Snow Tiger was quick to notice the duo before it also paused its steps. It gazed back at the father-son duo with a guarded and wary expression while protecting its young.
"Grrr," The adult Snow Tiger growled softly with a warning.
The boy frowned before Heinrich Escladus comforted, "Easy, son. That Rank 2 Snow Tiger is a mother that is just trying to protect her children. It shouldn't attack us if we don't get any closer. It's fine. We can just take a detour around them."
Heinrich Escladus was not concerned for his son's safety with him around.
Furthermore, his son was young, but he is already in the Revolving Core Realm due to the ingestion of high-quality cultivation pills.
"Alright," The boy nodded.
However, he continued to stare at the Rank 2 Snow Tiger as they were leaving. At the same time, the Rank 2 also stared back with soft growls.
The repeated growls made the boy's frown deepen with annoyance before his eyes slowly glowed with a crimson sheen.
Roar!
The Rank 2 Snow Tiger felt threatened before it roared at the boy.
Swoosh~!
The boy immediately reacted as if triggered by the Rank 2 Snow Tiger's roar, leaping over from his father's shoulders with intense blood lust in his eyes.
With the boy's cultivation in the middle stage of the Revolving Core Realm, the Rank 2 Snow Tiger was no match for the boy.
In a few exchanges, the boy sliced up the Rank 2 Snow Tiger with his short sword like a frenzied beast, splattering the Rank 2 Snow Tiger's flesh and blood all over the white snow.
The baby Snow Tigers nudged the Rank 2 Snow Tiger's motionless body before they issue weak roars like a cat's meow.
The boy raised his short sword in preparation for killing them all too, but he was stopped by Heinrich Escladus.
"That's enough, Leon. You did not need to kill them," He admonished with a sigh.
The crimson sheen of blood lust faded before the boy apologized, "Sorry, father. My body reacted on its own again."
"I know. You need to learn to control your Devil's Impulse better," Heinrich Escladus lectured.
"The saying goes as; the impulse is the devil, father," The boy corrected.
"Right, right. Impulse is the devil," Heinrich Escladus nodded wryly.
Shortly after, the boy spotted something in the distance before he softly exclaimed with a pointed finger, "There's a small village up ahead, father."
