Chapter 1: Ye Yi Zheng
"Wake up! Oi kiddo, wake up!" said a hoarse voice
"Strange, I used my qi to heal his flesh wounds and attached his ruptured meridians. It's already been 3 hours, why hasn't the kid awaken yet?" the hoarse voice said curiously
Hearing a mysterious voice telling him to wake up, the young man faintly woke up, "Huh, I didn't die? If I remember correctly that bastard Ye Xieren and his dogs got together to beat me up before making me a cripple" the young man lying on the ground, thought
"Where'd that voice come from? I faintly remember being thrown down the Blackridge cliff and then saw a bright light falling from the sky" he thought continued
"Oi, you brat! Finally decided to wake up huh?" said a hoarse voice
"What the? Who are you? How are u talking to me?" the young shouted
"Calm down kiddo, I'm speaking directly into your mind. You don't need to talk to be able to communicate with me, just use your mind" the hoarse voice said
The young man tried to gather up some strength to look around but was too weak to do so
"Hey you brat, I just healed your wounds and repaired your meridians. Of course, you won't have the strength to move" the voice continued
"You repaired my meridians?" the young man then tried to circulate qi
"It's true! How did you do that old man? Where is your body and who are you?" the young man asked
"I'm already dead, my soul was put inside that necklace you picked up. What year is it?" the old man asked
"What? You're already dead? No wonder you can talk inside my mind, well it's the beginning of the 1000th year of the Bai Hu Calendar (White Tiger)" the young man said
"1000th year of the Bai Hu Calendar? How long ago was the 1st year of the Qinglong Calendar? (Azure Dragon)?" the old man asked
"The first year of Qinglong? That was over 10,000 years ago, why do you ask? Could it be?" the young man replied
"That's right, I died on the last day of the first year of the Qinglong Calender. During my slumber, it's already been 10 millenniums huh" the old man said
"Wow, you're really old, old man. So what's your name? I'm Ye Yi Zheng, the Yi in righteousness or justice and the Zheng for upright or pure" Ye Yi Zheng said
"Your parents sure have a great naming sense... anyways you probably don't know me, since I've lived so long ago, my real name is Hou Yuhao. Others called me Alchemy God Hou during those days" Emperor Hou said
.
"What? Your Alchemy God Hou? Legends say that the Alchemy God was the greatest Alchemist in history! He created the basics of all Alchemy and traveled the 9 worlds to test each and every medicinal herb he could try, and created the greatest pill in history, the Pill of Ascension! However, the legends also stated that he was the evilest and heinous person in history and refined millions of mortals in order to try out new recipes" Yi Zheng (his full name is too long) said
"Oh? It's correct that I created the basics of alchemy but the most heinous evil? Those four must've spread those rumors after my death" Hou Yuhao said
"Anyways back to you, I read your sea of memories whilst you were sleeping. I must say though, you are hardworking but in terms of talent.. well it's really mediocre, the lowest I've seen in my entire 1000 or so years of life. An average child would at most take 6 months to reach the 1st layer of the Body Tempering realm, but it took you an entire 2 years" Hoy Yuhao said
"..." Yi Zheng stared at him in silence
"One could only blame the heavens for being unfair, well now that I'm here, you can become the strongest in history and step on those who dared to defy you. If you become my disciple, I will pass down my entire lives teachings from cultivation to alchemy and even instruments. Once you reach the peak, you can also help me achieve my dream of shattering the void and ascending" Hou Yuhao said
"Your disciple Ye Yi Zheng humbly greets master!" Yi Zheng said whilst still lying on the ground
"Good, good, since you've accepted I will pass on my knowledge to you. But first, you need to recover and find a safe place to begin cultivating from the start" Hou Yuhao said

Many days later, Yi Zheng's injuries completely healed. He walked around for a bit before coming across a cave
Inside the cave, Yi Zheng sat down crossed leg as he prepares to begin cultivating
