The area around Lee had suddenly become barren as not only was the energy outlandish stones in Lee's section swimming towards him, but every other outlandish stones that contained frigid energy. Frigid energy which had suddenly become berserk poured into Lee's body nonstop and the crowd couldn't help but worry about Lee, if he continued in such pattern he might explode of taking in too much energy.
Clan head Skyfire who always had an indifferent expression on his face had suddenly become gloomy, he clenched his fist so hard that his finger pierced the flesh of his palm and blood began to slowly drip.If it wasn't for the fact that it was entirely disastrous to disrupt Lee from his cultivation, he would have slapped Lee out of his meditative state.
" Strange!" Grindsea couldn't help but ponder, he had previously been disappointed when he saw Lee waste so much time, has he had also heard of the achievements of the callant. But with what he was seeing now he knew the lad was about to create something formidable!
********
"Elder Chu don't be bothered, its all but a show" Elder Son said even with a bit uncertainty in his voice, totally betraying his words."Hmmph, with the way this brat is absorbing Frigid energy into his body, I wouldn't be surprised if he at last freezes himself to death, then I want to see how those elders would still continue to support Skyfire" Elder chu snorted and couldn't help but imagine in his head the scene of Clan head Skyfire wailing when Lee froze himself to death and he somehow felt relived.
"Elder Chu, truly knows best" Chortled Elder Son.********
A young lad could be seen floating in an ice world which was previously a dark world, the lad had dark long hair with sparkling azure eyeballs and an handsomeness with no match, filled the tenderness of his young age.Lee!Lee having absorbed enough energy outlandish stones had successfully transformed the state of his area.
He knew where he was, was the part in his body where his dantian would reside, but not after he had condensed the whole ice in this space into a sword totem and then the space would shrink to a dantian.
" Gather!" Lee yelled in his mind and then began to form hand seals, the ice present in the space ad though been pulled by an invincible hand began to draw towards Lee's back, like a river carrying in it a force able to smash a tough boulder into smither. " Hu la! Hu la! "" Faster! " Lee as though not satisfied with the speed, began to form the hand seals more quicker, and then the ice began to gather with more speed that all one could see were blurs of icy-blue light.
In no time the last ounce of ice had gathered behind Lee to form a huge vortex. " Break!" Lee clenched his fist and then the vortex broke into several ice fragments.
But that wasn't all. "Condense" Lee slapped his hands together and the broken fragments began to merge together, and in a flash they had coalesced to become a long thin ice sword which was covered in a resplendent glow.The body of the sword was icy-blue while the hilt was a mix of blue and black, the appearance of the sword was perilous and the sharpness of the sword seemed to have no match, with the deadly glint that was flashing across the body of sword, and on the surface of the blade a thin screen of ice floated on top of it.
Lee's body suddenly vanished and so was the sword totem and the boundless dark space began to shrink till it became a space with limit.
*********On the outside the crowd had their jaws ajar with awe deeply imprinted in their eyes as they saw the long thin ice sword that appeared behind Lee which suddenly changed the temperature of the entire platform and it was even possible to see the trace of ice slowly forming on the surface of the stone platform which had suddenly become barren.
The totem speedily merged with the long sword on Lee's hands and the ordinary weapon transformed to a divine weapon and then just like the case of Byran an icy light shot towards Lee's forehead.Everyone stared at Lee as though they had seen a ghost, the sword totems they had seen in the past compared to that of Lee's paled.....the true genius of Wateredge clan.
"Haha, good son very good of you!" Clan head Skyfire took in a breath of relive and then immediately burst with emotions, he clapped his hands in joy and stared at Lee with pride in his eyes.....that was his son.Skyfire Lee!" Brother Skyfire, congratulations!" with a deep smile on his face Grindsea congratulated Lee's father."Brother Grindsea, thank you, does he meet...." With excitement in his tone he replied Grindsea but didn't forget to ask about the main deal, but was cut short by the latter.
"Don't bother to ask, he is more than qualified!" "Haha, thank you brother Grindsea I'm truly grateful" Grindsea nodded his head and stared at Lee with a smile on his face, he was extremely self satisfied, simply because he had just found a talent for his sect.**********
"Azure!" Lee who was still seating on the ground yelled on seeing a white small head that had suddenly popped it's head out of his robe." You brat, you slept all day and missed my big day!" Lee scolded as he stared at the white head in his robe.
The white cub seeming to say it was sorry rubbed its small head on Lee's chest and stared at him with its watery azure eyes."What can i do without you!" Lee seemed to have been moved as be placed his sword on his lap and pulled the cub out of his robe and rubbed its small head.
The cub half closed its eyes in pleasure as it stretched lazily in Lee's hand. " Pa!"" You lazy brat!" Lee who had been previously rubbing the head of the cub gently, suddenly slapped its head, the beast was stunned and immediately left Lee's hand and leaped on Lee's shoulder, and stared at the lad with a wronged look on its eyes.
Lee couldn't help but shake his head as he stared at the cub on his shoulder, the cub was exactly that of a white wolf, as for the exact specie Lee didn't have an idea, he had just found it in the forest dying and had saved it, and since then they had bonded which was like a year ago, as for Azure's eyes, it also came as a surprise to him.
But what amazed him most was though the growth of the cub was slow, the strength it wielded far surpassed even some level three spiritual refinement cultivator, but the beast had yet to even form a mystical core. As for its intelligence it was extremely higher than normal.Lee rose up and held his sword and moved towards the tip of the platform and gave a bow.Lee's father immediately regained his senses and switched back to his indifference, and surprisingly he was able to conceal his emotions.
" Skyfire Lee congratulations, you have been selected by master Grindsea to become a disciple of his sect!"
"I'm highly honoured" Lee smiled as he bowed once again, it had been has he expected, he wasn't proud but he knew his talent was topnotch and only those with bloodlines could outmatch him.Elder Chu's face had become terrible to behold, never had he expected that Lee who he had assumed to have either ended up dying or even cripple himself suddenly escape the calamity and come out victorious!"Clan head Skyfire i congratulate you, i had always known that Lee would emerge the best!" Elder son's voice suddenly rang out as he smiled at Lee's father."Shameless Bastard!" Elder chu clenched his hands into fists under his sleeves to abate his anger, as he stared venomously at Elder Son who suddenly appeared to have been on Skyfire's side all the time, if it wasn't for his position as an elder and the importance of the ceremony to his clan, he would have sliced
The sun rose from the horizon smiling brightly, pouring down its resplendent light on the earth, trees gently swaying to the lyrics of the morning wind, and plants joyfully absorbing sunlight.This beautiful day brought anxiety into the heart of Lee as he walked out of his room, in the beautifully adorned house where the clan head his father resided.He raised his foot and walked towards the extremely popular building in the clan, on his way to the library he received several gazes and greetings filled with respect and awe, he was used to been stared at with such eyes, but know it became more intense with the scene he created yesterday.After few moments, he finally arrived at the huge library, which was a sight to behold, standing at the entrance of the library were soldiers who stood like pillars and stared at
"[Ascending flame sword art]"Lee on seeing the name of the first black scroll, didn't blink an eye before he diverted his gaze away from it.He waited a bit for Springdove to view the second scroll, after few moments the lad shook his head, it seemed he wasn't interested in it."[Wind scattering tornado sword art]" Lee on seeing the name of the second scroll, had a tiny glint of interest flash across his eyes.He then read through it, it enabled one to embark on a destructive sword path, in the sense that one would be able to create formidable sword attacks with the force that equaled that in tornados!Lee nodded his head, and turned his gaze towards the third, it was then that he discovered that he was the only one left among the three, Charles had chosen the first sc
" Azure hurry up!" Lee said towards the cub who passionately devoured the roasted meat that laid before him.Lee stared at the cub silently, and couldn't help but smile, he was extremely lucky to have found it, somehow he knew that both of them would soars the haevens together.Few moments later, Azure could be seeing gently resting in Lee's garment. And then Lee raised his foot and left the courtyard.**********"Father it's pretty rare to see you in the house by this time of the day!" Lee said has he gently stared at his father.Skyfire on hearing this couldn't help but smile bitterly. " I'm sorry son, I know I have not had time to be with you, the affairs of the clan is very arduous, and I can't leave it into th
" No sir I don't" Lee truly didn't know anything, all he knew was they forge metals and weapons but if he told that to the extremely arrogant Master Yang he might get ridiculed."As I expected, this small city has made you ignorant of some basic things" Master Yang arrogantly.Lee felt vexed but didn't dare to say anything."A blacksmith is a treasure in the eyes of big clans and sects who are in possessions of bloodlines, do you know why?!" Master Yang stared at Lee as he questioned."To forge weapons!" Lee said knitting his eyebrows, that was the only thing he could think of, what was the job of a blacksmith.Forging!"Haha!" Master Yang on hearing this couldn't help but burst into laughter which made Lee feel a bit uncomfortable.
"Greetings, Master Yang" With ia coarse voice the young man who had suddenly appeared said.The appearance of the lad appeared quite ordinary, but with the expression on the faces of both Master Yang and Lee, one would be able to tell that though the lad's facial appearance was ordinary, he wasn't someone of an ordinary class."Hey, i never expected to meet the formidable young master of Wateredge clan here, such good luck of mine" though the words of the lad appeared clean and friendly, there was contempt in his voice which he didn't try to hide."Bloodsnake of Light Wolf clan, it's a pleasure to meet you " Lee's expression contradicted his words, with the cold expression on his face he didn't seem happy to see Bloodsnake.
Bloodsnake's fists landed heavily on Blueflame, which caused Lee to fly back, but he immediately stabbed Blueflame into the floor of the shop, surprisingly, Blueflame failed to pierce the metal floor, and was only able to leave a faint white mark as it dragged Lee's body along, but it was enough for Lee to gain his balance, as he then flipped in air and landed gracefully.Bloodsnake who just stood firm on the ground like a hill, rather than having a mocking or contempt filled expression, had shock written all over his face, if one stared well at his fist, one would see a tear, which had blood slowly dropping from it."You aarrr.....are already at the second stage" Bloodsnake stuttered. Before he reached the second stage of spiritual refinement, he had spent more than a month, clans like Lig
"No need for that, there isn't much that you need to know again, come back here tomorrow, your training would officially begin, you can leave now" Master Yang said has he then waved his hands, with this he raised his feet and walked farther from Lee.Lee nodded his head and gave a deep bow, with this he walked out of the shop.*********Outside the shop"Master Yang is not only arrogant but sly, with a teacher like him, I don't need to be emotionally attached, it would be pretty easy to find a better teacher when i reach Master Grindsea's sect!" Lee quickly resolved in his heart, though he didn't have a favourable expression of Master Yang, he was extremely excited about the fact that he had become the disciple of the famous arrogant blacksmit
"Fellow cultivator I'm Iron Fist" The human giant said as he bowed slightly."I'm Blue. I hope you take it easy on me" Lee said as he also bowed. It was easy for him to defeat the duo because they weren't too strong, not as Youngblood who even could have also defeated them, the man's speed was quite enough.The duo had already left the platform, as for the cultivator with daggers, after been hit by such attack, It wasn't surprising that he passed out."Hmmph!" The human giant only snorted and didn't say anything more, he slammed his gauntlet covered fist together, which disrupted the air a bit, the message was simple, he didn't talk much his fist did the talking!"I think this is the end for this lad!""It's the end. Iron Fist is a usual in the top 16, he isn't going to lose this match!""I place my bet on Iron Fist!"Several voices rang out among the crowd, they seemed to have envisioned Lee crawling out of the platform.Lee took on a battle stance, Iron Fist who had unleashed his my
"I admit defeat!" With despondency in his voice, Youngblood yelled out.Gasps of shock filled the Arena, the duration of time Lee used to defeat the latter was pretty short, it was less than twenty breaths, the others in stage had shock flash across their eyes."Such a lad!""I place my bet on him!"The crowd began to cheer, as to them a new source of money had appeared, it was in this same breath that another scream of pain filled the air."I admit defeat!!" This latter didn't yell with sadness, but pains, his face was badly battered, his garments were drenched with blood, he looked more like a rag doll.When Lee stared at the cultivator who did it, he was no longer shock at the state of the wounded man.The man was a human giant, he was more than burly, each of his arms were like twice of Lee's thighs, he wore gauntlets that were shining like as though light was reflected on it.From what Lee could see the man was a brute, his aura and presence was very intimidating, he hailed the c
"Boom!""Boom!"In few seconds Lee and Youngblood had exchanged several blows, and with every clash, Lee seemed to have the upper hand, Youngblood was beyond shocked he couldn't understand how he a mystical blood injector is been suppressed by a Essence swordsman in body strength!"Boom!"Lee hacked Blueflame towards Youngblood's head who immediately blocked with his heavy sword, the power behind the attack sent him taken several steps backwards."I don't know how you manage to posses such demonic strength, but I tell you I'm going to end this child's play right now" Youngblood snorted. He clenched his fists hard, mustering all the mystical blood power he could handle, the lightning dancing through his eyes doubled, a faint cry of a bird rang out from his throat, his aura had become extremely domineering, he was planning to go all out. It sounds long but all of it happened in few breaths"It's a Lightning Crow mystical blood he absorbed!" Lee muttered slightly under his breath, this b
Lee stared at the wooden token on his hands, and he couldn't help but grin, it was slowly getting closer to the matches, the token was quite similar to the one given to him in the Raging storm palace, it was inscribed with the number '22', the first set of battles that were coordinated in the Arena of heroes were in form of a battle royale, they went in, in groups of varying numbers depending on the amount of participants for each cultivation stage.No matter the amount of participants, the number of groups would not exceed sixteen, but in rare cases could only be lower.For the stage which Lee had registered for which was the fourth stage, they were to go in a group of eight, so this eight would engage in a battle royale, were only one person was needed, so in a group only one winner was needed....…"Citizens of Vine city, another edition of battles is about to occur in the Arena of Heroes, are you excited?!"A very sonorous and energy filled voice rang out throughout the stadium, L
Lee remained motionless for several breaths, the sudden change of events, and the realization that he would have ran mad if his sword totem didn't interfere gave him goosebumps, his robe was wet from sweat as though a bucket of water had been poured on him."If my sword totem hadn't interfered, that is how my mind would have been thrown in chaos, whoever created this is crazy, I bought with my hands what could have almost killed me" Lee couldn't help but shake his head, a part of him was wishing he had let the dark skinned man buy the art."I wasn't traumatized for nothing, at least I ended up creating mental energy" Lee grinned like a Cheshire cat, Lee immediately opened the box containing the needles, he was anxious to test how mental energy worked, he closed his eyes and directed his consciousness towards the mental space which resided in his forehead same as his dantian.Lee wrapped his mind around the floating milky white mental energy ball, it was the first form of mental energy
Lee could be seen seated in a lotus position on a bed in a small room that had only a wooden table and chair, this didn't look like the proper room of Lee in his father's residence. It was with no doubt not Lee's room, after Lee had accepted the Dragon call needles, he had wanted to start cultivating the art, but courtesy demanded him not to, with him not able to fulfill this wish he decided to lose himself in his thoughts and that was what he did till the auction ended, he didn't even know what the main item was, he speedily left the palace and searched around for an inn where he could rent and cultivate the art, it didn't take long before he found one. Lee brought out the scroll and needles from his storage ring, he unfolded the scroll and began to read through the content, it took a while before he digested everything. Lee could not help but shake his head, no wonder cultivators ran mad, you had to place your mind under some certain amount of pressure, it was like placing an heav
The auctioneer smiled upon hearing this, one gold coin wasn't small in any manner, the Fire Limg seed though was rare, but in normal circumstances it shouldn't be sold at such rate, to be able to sell at this rate was a great bonus to her company."Anyone increasing the price?!" The pretty auctioneer said has she increased the loudness of her voice."I guess I have to give up, who knew you desperately wanted the seed" The cultivator in box '20' said with a hint of jeer in his voice.Song Chu's face suddenly became pale, he squeezed his fist tight as anger began to roar in him. He had been played badly, the cultivator didn't have any interest in the seed, he had intentionally dragged with him to increase the price, and then back off when the price had reached an outrageous point, and it worked perfectly, now he had no more chance of struggling with the others for the main material of the day."That bastard, i need to find out who he his, no matter who he is I must make sure I cause tro
The first thing that caught his attention was the open space in front of the box, which represented some sort of window and view for the auction.Lee sat on the wooden seat prepared and stared at the stool beside him that had a wine on it. Lee shook his head, he wasn't quite interested, he had his mind focused on the materials that would showcase in the auction.In few minutes the auction room was already filled to the brim, the most conspicuous sight was the wooden boxes that stood in the auction room, a lot of gazes were directed towards them. Although those in the boxes didn't signify the strongest, it was some sort of means of flaunting your wealth, though not everyone had this intention, some people are so particular of their identities, like Lee is.The air suddenly became relaxed and perverted as the attention of most of the males in the auction was directed towards the platform at their front.A pretty young lady suddenly appeared on the platform. She had fiery red hair with a
The Gathering Point of Vine city, wasn't only comprised of people a group together, there are some certain sights that allured people towards the Gathering point. One of it being the sumptuous building of Raging Storm Palace.A pretty colossal building that was shaped like a rectangle with a hole in the midpoint. There was a circular gap at the centre of the building, leaving an open diameter of space at the top of it, which was covered with long unique iron bars forged by blacksmiths with high class.The Raging Storm Palace was a foreign settlement, that came to Vine city to sell artifacts, pills, weapons and sometimes even some rare mystical beasts. Auctions are only done in Raging Storm Palace when some queer or powerful materials are found, such was what was happening today.Lee was like a grain lost in the sea of humans, that treaded towards Raging Storm Palace
