Chapter 2: Primordial Chaos God

As Zhan Wei walked back, he thought about the imperial decree, " My inability to cultivate has made some people think I can be used as a pawn , the capital huh, interesting".

Of course Zhan Wei had his own reasons for agreeing so easily.

 After leaving the main hall , Zhan Wei walked to Martial pavilion, where the Martial arts techniques and cultivation texts of the Clan were kept.

On his way he passed by the training grounds.

  

  In the training grounds, young kids aged 10 - 15  children were seen cultivating .

The Zhan Clan was a large war Clan with hundreds of member, after coming of age Clan members were assigned military duty.

A middle aged man was instructing the kids , upon seeing Zhan Wei he bowed lightly and greeted him, " Young master!"

The kids too all bowed and greeted, although their reaction was not that sincere, they still had to greet him.

Zhan Wei was the only son of the Clan Head even if he couldn't cultivate they didn't dare to disrespect him.

He nodded at the middle aged man and left, although he knew the thoughts of this people he didn't care.

Some kids had looks of disdain and mockery as they watched him leave .

The Zhan Clan was different from normal clans , the line of succession was not guaranteed, only the strongest in his or her generation could become the next Clan head.

Actually Zhan Wei was not useless, although he had crippled meridians, he was born with " Innate Divine Strength " and was known for his humongous appetite and battle strength, even among his generation none could defeat him.

Of course since he couldn't cultivate, with time the gap between him and his peers would only get wider .

Only he knew his strength wasn't as simple as just " Innate Divine Strength ".

.....

The Martial Pavilion was a two storied pagoda, the ground floor was accessible to all the clan while the rest required one to either be of a certain realm or an Elder's permission.

After greeting the Elder in charge of the Pavilion, he went to the section where weapon techniques were kept , most weapon techniques had requirements for cultivation except foundational arts.

Foundational arts were used by people to learn the basics of weapons techniques .

The Martial Pavilion had few Clansmen who were busy studying their cultivation techniques, they ignored him and continued to focus on what they were doing.

Apart from the Clan Head and elders , Clansmen were not mandated to greet anyone in the Martial pavilion.

He took a booklet titled " Sword Foundation Arts " and sat cross-legged to read.

After a while , he heard someone approach him, looking up from the book he turned to face his intruder.

A young girl around 15 years of age , she had a beautiful face with short messy curls and a valiant aura, Zhan Wei knew who she was but he was curious why she approached him.

Xiaomei looked the young boy sitting cross-legged, his wild handsome features and tall physique seemed to make people forget he was just a boy , in fact younger than her.

" I've seen you come here so many times , what's the point?"

The Martial Pavilion was usually a quiet place but after hearing her speak , everyone's attention was piqued, even the Elder at the entrance had his attention on the duo .

Zhan Wei was amused by her question, he looked at her and laughed loudly.

This was the first time someone asked him that kind of question, in fact he knew that the same thing was in the mind of his Clansmen.

Since she had the courage to ask, then he would answer.

" Interesting, what's the point?".

" My meridians are crippled, I can't cultivate , so what!".

" All living things are not born equal under the Heavens , yet the Dao is merciful, as far as one is willing, there is a way".

After saying so , He placed his focus back on what he was reading.

Xiaomei stood rooted , she hadn't expected this kind of response when she approached him , maybe anger or stubbornness.

Yet his response, that calmness and  terrifying confidence , the Clansmen eavesdropping on their conversation were also shocked .

" A kid has this kind of will power" , unlike the rest , The Elder understood better what Zhan Wei words meant , even experts wouldn't feel that way in their hearts , it required a lot of belief in one's self.

"The Clan Head has sired a good son "

...

After a while, News of Zhan Wei's betrothal to the Imperial princess had spread everywhere in the capital even to the wastelands.

With the Crown Prince died and Princess Yunzi set to inherit the throne , Zhan Wei marrying the princess didn't make sense to the masses talk less the nobles.

Nobody really understood the thoughts of the Emperor .

The Zhan Clan had to make arrangements, according to the decree , Zhan Wei was to leave for the Imperial city as soon as possible.

He had to undergo basic formal training and etiquette  before he became the imperial consort.

As for Zhan Wei, he was sitting in front of a large table filled with different varieties of food, the barren wastelands was home to many wild beast which contain a lot of blood Qi and Vital essence and spirit herbs.

A young maid could be seen standing beside him, this was his personal maid Qing'er.

Although he ate slowly, he still took his time to devour the food in front of him, the maid beside him obviously used to his large appetite kept replacing his empty plates with other dishes.

....

After dinner, In a dimly lit room , Zhan Wei could be seen sitting cross legged with his upper body bare and eyes closed .

Every muscle of his body could be seen contracting and relaxing rapidly in a mysterious rhythm .

 In his sea of consciousness, his consciousness could also be seen sitting naked  cross legged with another consciousness in front of it.

  This consciousness could be seen undergoing the same state of contraction and relaxation as his real body.

it had the same features as the first yet was thousands of feet tall and had a physique that seemed to defy the heavens.

it's eyes were like molten gold with the markings of the five elements and with every breadth it seemed to absorb the vital essence of heaven and earth.

Zhan Wei was born with two incarnations of his spirit in his sea of consciousness .

One was human and the other was a giant godlike being, this was one secret he never told anybody .

After his birth,  a massive heavenly tribulation came down on him , it crippled his meridians and almost killed him.

He was very weak and even his Parents didn't expect him to live.

Yet he was tenacious and survived , he ate a lot as he grew and became healthier and  stronger.

But since he showed nothing extraordinary apart from his strength, no one payed him attention after all his meridians were crippled.

  The Primordial Chaos God scripture was a body cultivation technique that has been cultivated by Zhan Wei since birth that existed in the memory of that Godlike incarnation.

It devoured the vital essence of heaven and earth and living things.

The first tier involved the absorption of the vital essence of the five elements into the five organs ( fire to heart , water to kidney , metal to lungs , wood to spleen and earth to liver)  and after every cycle, the vital energy of the five elements was used to refine the body.

Zhan Wei had since cultivated the first tier to major completion but has not been able to transition to grand completion.

After a while he opened his eyes and sighed.

The vital essence of the five elements in the barren wastelands was scarce , Zhan Wei could only devour the little vital essence in wild beasts .

Unless he could find a spiritual abode , blessed land or spirit fruit or treasure that contained the vital essence of the five elements , it would be difficult for him to reach the grand completion of the first tier even after years of cultivation.

    

...

Purple Cloud Palace , Imperial City

The Purple Cloud Palace was the residence of Princess Yunzi.

A young girl sat a jade lotus platform, she had very beautiful face with bright purple pupils and fair skin, she had a graceful aura and wore an imperial robe with purple Cloud patterns , her long hair was tied into a bun with a golden hairpin.

She furrowed her brows as she read the imperial decree in her hands.

After a while she sighed and dropped the decree on the table.

" I'm going to get married to someone I don't even know".

Of course she understood her Father's woes , with her brother died she was the only remaining imperial descendant.

The Great Xia empire was in turbulent waters and her father was dying.

Yes her Father was dying, although he still looked powerful, he only had a few years left .

They had to guide against internal enemies and outside forces.

The Great Xia empire wasn't the only force in the Eastern region , in fact before the founding of the empire , the Eastern region was dominated by Sects.

After the Great war of centuries ago , The Emperor dominated the Eastern region and established the empire.

That Great Emperor of centuries ago was now on his dying breath , Experts of his level without breaking through to an higher realm couldn't live pass a certain age and he was injured.

" I have to become stronger!",  she thought as she clenched her fist.

After a moment she calmed down and faced the maid who brought the decree,  "Cai'er , how is he like?" .

" Your Highness , apart from the fact he can't cultivate, he's said to be very handsome and was born with innate Divine strength, he has a huge appetite and spends most of his time training foundational arts".

Obviously the maid already knew a lot about about Zhan Wei.

" Foundational arts ", Xia Yunzi chuckled.

" How's his character and temperament like?" .

The maid paused a bit , she had a hint of hesitation on her face.

Xia Yunzi also noticed her hesitation, " What is it ?" , She asked.

Cai'er replied, " According to the rumors he's calm and indifferent to most things ".

No woman would want to get married to an indifferent man , women were emotional creatures , they liked to be pampered and  loved.

Although she had no say in the marriage, Cai'er still wanted the Princess to get married to someone who would love and cherish her.

Xia Yunzi knew what was going on in her maid's mind but she didn't know him, why would she care if he was indifferent or not.
