บท 3: Time Flies
As time continued to pass, Yuan gained a lot more knowledge about the cultivation world and he found out more about this continent.
This continent's name was Desolate Continent in this massive world, but he couldn't find out the name of this world despite looking for it in the library.
The Desolate Continent was divided into 5 parts, Eastern Desolate, Western Desolate, Northern Desolate, Southern Desolate, and Central Desolate.
A giant river divided all these continents. No one below a certain cultivation level can cross it or else he will be erased from the world, his past, present, and future will be erased not only from this timeline but from all the infinite timelines that lie in this world.
There might be higher level worlds or realms outside of this continent but he doesn't have knowledge about that.
After finishing the current book, he looked deep in thought as he spoke his thoughts aloud,
"I'm currently in the Desolate Continent. There are a lot of races here, The Dragon Race which has so many different clans inside it, and The Phoenix Race which is the same as the Dragon Race, both of these are the Apex races of the Divine Beast Clan.
There are many more races like Celestial Foxes, Jade Rabbit, Golden Crow, Roc, Hydra, etc."
Yuan stood up and walked outside the library, he looked up to see the sky, it was evening now the sky was beautiful with a setting sun and scattered clouds.
He stretched and spoke in his childlike voice "Ahh It was a good day as always, but I still haven't left this mansion, mother said the world is dangerous outside and I will only be able to leave when I start cultivation and reach a high enough level."
He then thought about something and started walking while muttering, "I nearly forgot it's time to eat while reading the books, mom and aunts must be waiting for me."
As he reached the dining hall, he pushed open the door and entered inside.
Inside his mother, Yuxin was sitting at the dining table, it was a round dining table so everyone could sit together.
He looked around and found out that the maids were setting up the table and both of her aunts were standing respectfully beside his mother.
Yuxin looked towards the door and smiled gently when she saw who it was. She beckoned towards him to come beside her and sit on the chair.
Both Huo Rong and Bing Rong also smiled sweetly when they saw Shen Yuan.
Shen Yuan smiled at them and went to sit beside his mother on the chair, she patted his head and began talking.
"You finally found time to meet with your poor mom? I thought you nearly forgot about me after not seeing you for so long."
She faked a few tears while looking at Yuan to see his reaction. Yuan just shook his head helplessly since he was way too used to seeing her antics by now.
Yuan stood up from the chair and went to hug his mother, he spoke while hugging her,
"How can I forget my dear mother? I was just too engrossed in reading the books that I forgot about the time, that's why I'm late now."
Yuxin beamed with a bright smile as she hugged him back and patted him while speaking merrily.
"Good son, I knew you won't forget your beautiful mother so soon."
Huo Rong spoke while giggling lightly after seeing her mistress's antics.
"Young Master Yuan studies very hard every day, madam. Give him some slack." She put a hand on her cherry lips and giggled lightly after finishing speaking.
Bing Ruo chimed in agreement with her sister and added, "That's correct, madam. I have not seen another child as intelligent or as hardworking as Young Master."
Yuxin smiled proudly after hearing both of them speaking up for Yuan. She put him down on the chair again and spoke to other maids besides Huo Rong and Bing Rong to prepare food.
She chatted with Yuan while waiting for the food to be served, She asked Yuan about what he new things he learned today or if he wanted to know about something that confused him.
"Yuan'er, do you have something to ask about after reading all day long today as well?"
Yuan looked up from the table and spoke in an annoyed tone tinged with naiveness,
"If I ask something which I want to ask then you just say to first awaken then you will tell me this or that, and now you are asking me what I want to know. Hmph!"
Yuxin smiled embarrassedly at that and spoke, "Ahem, you can ask about cultivation related stuff after your awakening, aren't you interested in something else? like the various races in this world, or the clans or sects here, etc?"
Yuan pondered for a second and asked what he studied today when he was in the library,
"I want to ask about the various races of the Desolate Continent, and how they are distributed geographically since you won't tell me the cultivation realms above Body Forging I can only make do with this."
In the end, his voice became annoyed again when he thought about how he couldn't learn more about the stuff that he wanted to know the most about.
Yuxin gently smiled while taking out a book and began reading about the various races of the continent.
"The whole Desolate Continent is too big for you to think about right now, so let's talk about the Eastern Desolate Region only. Here we don't have any top tier beasts like the 9 Clawed True Dragon, Phoenix, Golden Crow, Kun Peng, etc. But we do have the subspecies of said beasts."
"We have 3-5 Clawed True Dragons or even the lesser flood dragons etc, same as we have the subspecies for all other beasts as well, these Divine Beasts live in the Central Desolate Region. These subspecies are powerful, but not as powerful as their apex relatives."
"In addition to the Dragon kin, there are many other races here. For example, the Celestial Foxes, known for their cunning and beauty, live in the lush forests building their own separate Kingdoms and Empires.
The Jade Rabbits, famed for their agility and mysterious alchemical arts, also reside here with harmony, both of these races are gentle in nature. The Golden Crows and Rocs prefer the high mountains and open skies where they can soar freely. Though the Golden Crows prefer volcano-type locations more."
