The Patriarch looked at everyone knowing what they were thinking."Patriarch! This is absurd! Are you going to send brother Roger to the eternal tomb?" the seventh elder asked.
The patriarch replied, "I"m not going to send him there! Instead, I don"t want him to go there, but this concerns his future. Everyone here can understand how this will affect his future cultivation so whether he wants to go there or not I will leave the decision to him.

Everyone looked at Roger with pity and helplessness.
Roger was confused by their actions. Previously they were eager to jump in a pit of fire for him, but now there are showing a helpless expression to him.
Knowing what he was thinking, the seventh elder tried to explain. But before he can open his mouth, the twenty-fifth elder jumped in.
"Grandson Roger, let me explain!"
Hearing him calling Roger as Grandson, the seventh elder nearly spat out blood. The twenty-fifth elder looked at seventh elder with a smirk and continued.
"I"m sorry, I called you as a grandson. . . . . !" Before he can finish his word, Roger spoke.
"It"s Ok grandpa! Can you tell me about the Eternal tomb?" Roger was from the Earth, so calling old age people as Grandpa wasn"t new to him. But he didn"t know that in this world calling someone as Grandpa means accepting them as someone close.
Everyone was shocked at their development; the seventh elder was considering whether he made a mistake in calling him as a brother.
The twenty-fifth elder was grinning from ear to ear after hearing Roger calling him as Grandpa.
"Yes! Come and sit near Grandpa! I"ll explain it to you!" the twenty-fifth elder said it in a loud voice and mainly stressed out the word, Grandpa.
Everyone was fuming with jealousy especially the seventh elder while the patriarch shook his head.
Roger sat near the twenty-fifth elder as he explained.
"The Eternal tomb is a separate dimension found by the soaring dragon clan around a million years ago. And due to this dimension, the Soaring Dragon is what we are now. Before that, we are nothing but an ordinary clan."
"Over the years more than a million clansmen have tried entering the dimension, but very few had returned alive. Even the word very few is an exaggeration because over the years those who returned alive can be counted in your fingers."
"Of the survivors who entered the dimension only the great elder is the one who"s still alive. But the main thing is that if anyone within the sovereign stage enters they would be killed instantly by a mysterious force, so sadly we cannot help you with this expedition. As an elder, I advise you not enter the eternal tomb but If you still choose to enter then talk with the great elder before you make a choice." the elder advised Roger.
Roger nodded to his suggestion and left the hall.
Now only the patriarch and elders stayed in the room.
The patriarch looked at their displeased expression with a smile and said, "I know what you guys are thinking! But don"t worry nothing will happen to him, I believe he"s the only one who could explore the tomb and unravel its secret. Don"t forget the prophecy and the immortal wife behind him. According to our great elder"s information, the cultivation level of his immortal wife is unfathomable, and our great elder believes that she"s not from the lower realms. And I don"t believe that she didn"t leave any life-saving measures with him."
And if he returns successfully, we could buy the extra spirit nectar from him. A single drop of spirit nectar can reconstruct a human const.i.tution, and there is a 10% chance of a special physique to occur. You know what this means, a single drop of spirit nectar can allow our clan to gain an Immortal realm expert in the future.

"Roger, do you really have to go there?" asked Qing"er. She knew what her grandfather talked about in the meeting hall.
Roger nodded without saying anything.
Seeing his silence, she knew she cannot change his mind, so she stopped asking further.
Roger asked her whether he could meet the great elder. Qing"er replied that she went away for some business and she might return after a day or two.
Roger then asked regarding Lisa"s clansmen and said that he needs their help to meet them at a safer place.
"I already talked about that to the Great elder she said she would answer after she returns." Qing"er replied.
"Ok!" Roger then returned to his room and jumped into his dimension.
"Welcome Young master!" Kronan came before him and saluted.
"Kronan! How"s the training for the kids going on?" Roger asked Kronan.
"Everything"s fine except for the little girl Tina! She never listens to me and throws tantrums for simplest of things. I don"t know what to do, Young master?" Kronan replied.
Roger smiled and thought, "I thought the little girl might have changed from the incident. Still, I can"t blame her; she"s a child." Roger was a little disappointed and happy at the same time. He was happy because he liked the mischievous little girl character very much.
"Take me to her!" Roger said.
Roger and Kronan strolled to the training area. On the way, he saw the kids training seriously. Roger nodded at their sincerity and walked towards them.
Looking at Roger"s arrival, everyone came running towards him.
Roger patted their heads and gave them advice about cultivation. While he was explaining everyone"s eyes was shining like watching their idols. For the kids born in slums, the existence of a s.p.a.ceship was like a myth to them but when they saw him having his own world made them believe that he was a G.o.d. Many of them dreamed of becoming like him and girls dreamed of marrying him. Even though they subconsciously know that it was an extravagance hope.
Roger asked, "Where is Tina?"
"Young Master! She is inside her room and refuses to come out except for the time to eat." Kronan replied with a helpless expression.
"Hahhaaa..." Roger laughed looking at his worn-out expression.
"Why didn"t you force her to come out?" he asked.
"Master! You didn"t saw her when she puts up a tantrum. She wiggles on my hands like crazy, and she even said that Young master loves her very much and blackmails me saying that I tried to grope her. Master! I"m helpless in this matter." Kronan said with the same expression.
Roger laughed catching his stomach making the other kids laugh too. Kronan stood there not knowing why his master is laughing at him.
"Ok! You stay here and teach the kids, and I"ll bring her here!" he said to Kronan and left.
Roger went near the room and knocked on the door.
"Go away! I don"t want to study. Call me when you prepare the snacks!" a cute lazy voice came from inside the room.
Roger with a smile said, "Okay! I even brought snacks and toys for my little sister, since she doesn"t want to meet me. I"ll go away!" he said in a sad voice.
Hearing Roger"s voice, she dashed out of the room and hugged him tightly.
"Giggles"
"Big Brother, why didn"t you say that it was you? I thought it was that blockhead came to see me." Tina said happily.
"Hahhaa...! Tina it isn"t nice to bully someone especially with someone"s looks," Roger said nicely.
"Buuuuuu.....!" she pouted a little then asked, "Big brother where are the snacks and toys?"
"I thought of giving it to you, but seeing you not studying properly I"m thinking of not giving it to you!" he said with a strict voice.
"But big brother, it"s boring to study! I don"t want to study! Please!" Tina faked her tears.
Roger sighed not knowing how to handle her. He then decided to leave Lily inside the dimension with the kids.
