" I believe so, it was written in the old book passed down our family as the legacy of the founder, Lucian Ashborne. He was said to be reincarnated by someone called KARLOS, A supreme god because he was bored and saw something interesting. Lucian was on a Dormant(unawaken) world before he reincarnated. His tales are what made our bloodline so feared. I was going to tell you about our bloodline when you awaken anyway. So our bloodline, just like I said came from Lucien Ashborne, the founder, He had very high talent in cultivation. He could fight people a whole realm above him with only techniques and when he wielded his sword he defeated a 'nascent soul' cultivator while being in foundation realm. Fighting above your realm is not easy, you would need to have a monstrous talent, abilities, comprehension to pull it off."
"I have the book that passed down in our family and now since you have become a cultivator, you can have it. It has written the detail about all the bloodline techniques, about the founder and our history, how we fell down from being conquerors to not even mentioned in the history. You should give it a read after some time." Alaric finished saying while Max and Anastasia stared at him like he was a ghost. Max didn't know anything about it. Anastasia knew about his bloodline and some of its danger but she never knew that the founder was so powerful.
After the trio ate the lunch in silence and countless thoughts passing through Max's mind about Lucien's reincarnation, Alaric retrieved a book from their room. It was an old book, it had dust fully covering it. After removing the dust, it revealed only two simple words written on the cover "The Ashborne's". They were simple words but the carried power, an ancient power that sent shudders down Max. Inside of it was written about the journey of the founder till he challenged the gatekeeper and ascended into an immortal world and how he changed the humans from the weakest to the strongest species. After that it contained what happened after he ascended, after the founder ascended, three continents-Dragons, Vampires and Elves formed an alliance to remove the Ashborne family. The fought in a war that Lasted for a hundred and eleven years until the Ashborne family fell and hide in the dark forest for a thousand years.
The Ashborne returned after a thousand year with many geniuses already at the peak of 'nascent soul' realm, but the alliance reacted fast. By that time, without the Ashborne leading them, the humans had already fell down to becoming the weakest species, again. When the geniuses of the Ashborne family made themselves known, the alliance launched a war, they attacked with their full power in one go. Intending to kill the Ashborne before they could solidify themselves in the human continent.
The full on war raged on for only 5 years before the Ashborne fell. The alliance removed all knowledge about them from the history, only the spirits on their continent remember about the Ashborne. Since then, the Ashborne family went into hiding in the dark forest, again, they are still hiding in the dark forest consolidating their strength to rise again, with his father being the descendant of one of the geniuses managed to save himself in time.
All this happened about 10,000 years ago. This book was made by the genius who saved himself to tell his descendants about the true history, and that the Ashborne will rise again and the alliance will be the one to fall.
This was the history of his bloodline, Max felt rage and anger towards the alliance after reading this, it was not his emotions but his bloodline reacting to the fact it was being suppressed by some faction. Alaric put a hand on his shoulder to calm him down, "Max, keep your emotions in check. You became a cultivator just today, you should just focus on becoming strong right now, not focusing on revenge. If you want revenge, you can seek out the Ashborne in the dark forest, not before you become a 'spiritual core' realm should you travel there."
" Father, why aren't you a cultivator? You also posses the bloodline, so you must have had the talent." Max questioned his father. From how talented the cultivators of the Ashborne were shown, his father should have at least awaken.
