“Of course these methods where your life is on the line to get stronger reap greater benefits, but it’s not ideal to always choose this path. Especially when there are safer alternatives. Do you understand?”By the end of the scolding, Yang Su looked like a wrinkled raisin under Li Shen's disapproving glare.Yang Su nodded and said.“Master, I understand. It’s just that at the moment I was under pressure thinking that if I let such an opportunity escape, I’ll never be able to get a better Qi Sea to form my ninth Divine Platform. I may have had to settle for having two same elements for two of my Qi Seas.”“Were you badly injured?”Li Shen sighed in resignation as he asked.“I..”Yang Su hesitated before he continued.“If it wasn't for that senior, the Spatial Tribulation would have killed me.”Hearing that, Li Shen thought for a moment then concluded that it was the elder he saw when he exited the Dimension before.If there was anyone who could save Yang Su from a Spatial Heavenly Tri
Quite some time passed as Li Shen and the others waited for Lihua’s return.Li Shen was meditating while Tai lazily leaned against his back with what seemed like a bored expression on his face. He would ever so often take out an Illusory Void Fruit and snack on it, and by the looks of it, he had plenty of them.Meanwhile, Yang Su, Jun, Mu Fan, and Fei Yin were seated in a circle. For some reason, Mu Fan was shivering uncontrollably. But at the same time, his clothes looked like they were burnt to a crisp.Some distance away from them the signs of a battle were seen.Mu Fan had overbearingly challenged Yang Su to a spar, but to no one’s surprise, he was completely defeated.And not just oh he put up a fight but was eventually outmatched no. From the very start of the match, Mu Fan didn’t stand a chance.Jun’s defensive Spear Arts had been great enough to shut down his advance and restricted his ability to display his Blade Arts fully, but battling Yang Su he couldn’t even enter a twent
As Mu Fan was contemplating whether he should follow the trend, but eventually decided to abandon the idea, Yang Su and Fei Yin greeted Lihua, who nodded and then asked again. “What were you guys just doing?” “It’s nothing, we just battled and Fei Yin decided to heal us.” Mu Fan immediately said with a straight face. Fei Yin gave him a sideways glance but didn’t say anything. Lihua stood there and saw them looking up at her. A suspicious expression appeared on her face, but she soon showed a disinterested look before nodding and then turning to head over the where Li Shen was. “Wait!” Jun got up and hurriedly stopped her. Mu Fan gave Jun a knowing grin at his desperation, but Jun ignored it and said to Lihua. “Senior sister Lihua, do you want to try? The experience feels strangely relaxing.” Jun thought back on the feeling and he figure he would have Lihua try it. However, as he said that, Mu Fan and Fei Yin’s expressions froze. ‘This brat, he…’ Mu Fan thought as he looked
“Guys let’s go.”Li Shen said as he approached the boys.“Are we going to look for junior brother Chen?”Yang Su said as he rose to his feet, absorbing the Wood Qi was immediately placed at the back of his mind.The others except for Fei Yin stood up as well.Jun lowered his head and went to use Mu Fan as a shield so he wouldn’t have to look at Lihua. Mu Fan sneered and immediately went to sidestep his attempt, but Jun grabbed his forearm and despite being a burly miniature giant, Mu Fan’s expression changed when he squeezed. It felt as if his arm was going to be ripped off.Mu Fan immediately stopped his movements to dodge him and cursed internally.‘Why the hell is his strength so monstrous?’Mu Fan was almost twice the size of Jun with even his hand capable of wrapping around his head quite easily. But the strength his physique suggested seemed inadequate compared to a smaller Jun.Was his strength even worth anything then?‘No!’That wasn't the case. Even though Li Shen didn’t go
‘This isn’t Demonic Qi, what is this vile energy?’Li Shen thought.He didn’t know where it came from, and he hadn't sensed it before it entered Jun.Li Shen’s face was serious as his Divine Will moved. Strangely, but luckily, the vile dark energy was very weak against his attempts to force it out.In just a few seconds, the dark miasma poured out of Jun’s pores to gather above his body. Li Shen immediately trapped the dark miasma with his Divine Will after getting all of it out of Jun’s system. Looking at it, it was only the size of a baby’s fist.Despite how weak it was, what was strange was how it mercilessly ran ramped in Jun’s body unimpeded. With his current cultivation and power, Jun should have easily been able to prevent this thing from infiltrating his body. But for some reason known, Jun’s Righteous Qi was ineffective against it.It was like a parasite that had immunity to his Righteous Qi. If Li Shen hadn't react quickly, this little bit of dark energy could have corrupted
Li Shen was in the hut-like bridge of the ship, his expression extremely ugly beyond belief.Yang Su and the others were on the bow of the ship, with Fei Yin off to the side meditating.Everyone was looking at Yang Su who was wearing an awkward expression.ROAR!!!SCREECH!!!Various Spirit Beasts' roars could be heard echoing out.They were currently flying over the Eastern Territory which was mostly desert. In the sand, gigantic worms nearly a hundred meters in size could be seen borrowing through the sand after their ship in the sky.It was impossible for them to reach them but these Spirit Beasts' worms had lost all reason. It didn’t take long before the ship put a major distance between them. But their cries continue to be heard by the group causing the awkward atmosphere to increase.But ahead of them, an eagle-like Spirit Beast with a wing span of forty meters was seen madly charging towards the ship.“Mu Fan!”Li Shen yelled from his position, and from his tone of voice, one co
“Master...it’s gone.”Jun said from behind Li Shen worriedly.Immediately as he entered the Demon Grotto, the Karma String connection between him and Fang Chen just disappeared all of a sudden with no warning or indication.That was too strange and coincidental.Li Shen’s eyes never stopped examining the fogging surroundings while a solemn expression played on his face.‘Why is the fog even thicker than before?’The last time Li Shen was here he could see for hundreds of meters while inside the fog, but now he could barely see three meters in front of him.How can he not have apprehension suddenly rise in his heart?Li Shen’s eyes soon gained more luster as he used his Heavenly Eyes. However, Li Shen’s face immediately fell as he couldn’t see anything. No, he could see something, he saw a pair of eyes staring back at him.They were blood red and as Li Shen met his gaze with it, he had never before sensed something so vile. It was as if he was staring at the accumulation of all of huma
Lihua continued.“It’s getting exhausting having to look out for you when you're like this. When it comes to thinking logically and creating a plan to solve a solution I’m amazed at your ingenuity. But when it comes to us or those around you, you become a completely different person I can’t recognize. There’s no logic in your actions and you limit yourself and options beyond all comprehension. Just like when Jun was almost killed, why did you ignore us and went out alone? Even when I was poisoned by Xian, why did you give him back the rune? If you didn’t, he wouldn’t have been able to hold those citizens hostage and blackmail you.”Saying all of this, Lihua stared at Li Shen. Her expression was serious as she scolded him while he remained silent.What she said was right.Any other time Li Shen would have thought out a calculative plan to go about anything he did.That’s how he did things back in his past life, and now this life. He was good at it.But it wasn’t natural, it had develop
So, that's the end of Book One."..."Are you mad?"..."Of course you are, I'm sorry."Fuck you, Author..."Wah! I'm really sorry!!*start groveling and begging for forgiveness.*For those of you who haven't seen it in the last chapter(it's not like I didn't put it in the title.) I made the decision to end Book One here, right on the edge of a massive cliff... don't kill me haha, I swear I'll write Book Two.Oh, did you see the title of Book Two? If not here it is again... BOOK TWO: War Of Continents... coming soon.I always intended to split this novel into separate books, but I never planned on stopping Book One here. At first, I made the decision to go on hiatus, but then as I read over the last few chapters I realized this was somewhat of a good place to end Book One... please don't kill me.For all the readers who have reached this point... thank you.I've been writing this book for over a year now. Arguably I haven't posted much in the last three months, but we don't talk about t
When Gu Min landed in front of him, Yang Su stood there staring at him with a blank expression while tears ran down his cheeks.“What, you won't even come running to hug me after not seeing me for so long? You always did when we were little. Or have you grown too big now? You’re almost as tall as I am.”Gu Min said this jokingly, but Yang Su could only lower his head and began wiping his tears.Gu Min walked up to him and hugged him.“It’s okay, why are you crying?”“I-I thought you died because of me. And Mom and Dad, they…”“Did they blame you?”A sad expression appeared on Gu Min’s face, but Yang Su shook his head.“No, after they thought you died they wouldn’t let me out of their sights. It's because of you that I couldn’t even set foot outside of the house.”Gu Min cracked a smile when he heard his little brother’s words.“I’m sorry I didn’t come home, I-”“It’s fine.”Yang Su suddenly said cutting off Gu Min.“As long as you’re fine I don’t care if I never see you again, I just
Ling Tian was in the sky scanning the crowd of disciples down below.His heart was filled with both anger and frustration.Soon, his gaze stopped on a figure that was trying to blend into the crowd as much as possible.But despite the hood hiding their appearance, Ling Tian knew exactly who this person was.In a fit of rage and worry, he bolted toward this person.On the ground, Li Shen looked at Yang Su and asked.“Yang Su, what do you mean, is that person your older brother?”Everyone in the group heard this and they all turned to look at Yang Su.Yang Su nodded and said.“He looks slightly different, but I’m sure that’s him.”While Xian was smiling off to the side, Mu Fan glanced at Yang Su’s brother in the air and scowled.“His hair is ever redder than yours, how revolting.”Jun frowned and elbowed Mu Fan to shut up.As Yang Su continued to look at his brother he started to become more agitated.He was skeptical of Xian’s words before but now that he saw his brother he was overcom
Mu Fan placed everyone down before they all glared at Xian.Xian shrugged his shoulders in response.Jun was about to comment on Xian being here, but Li Shen placed a hand on his shoulder.“Look after Lu Yue for me.”Hearing this, Jun turned to look at Lu Yue before hurrying over.Fei Yin hurried over as well, it looked like she had a few superficial wounds he was able to heal.Li Shen then looked at Xian and asked.“What’s the point of you joining? You seem to have a group of your own.”“Well, that doesn’t mean I can’t join yours right?”Li Shen went silent for a moment and then said.“I’ll think about it. For now, we should focus on why we were teleported here.”Xian turned to look at the front of the hall where a throne was before saying with narrowed eyes.“Isn’t it obvious my other half? Someone wants us here.”Hearing Xian’s words, everyone in the group had their expressions change.They suddenly had a bad feeling rise in their hearts. One that Mu Fan long had.“Master…?”Li She
“D-Damn it, what is happening now?!”Mu Fan cried out as he saw his fingers fading away.Li Shen looked over at him and then down at his own hand to see his fingers were fading away as well, and at a rapid pace at that.Li Shen then looked towards the sky to see that after shattering, what was revealed was a clear blue sky.The shattered fragments of the previous crimson sky were still hovering in the air, reflecting the blue sky above and the Fiery Dimension below at the same time.Looking away from this scene, Li Shen bent down to pick up Lu Yue and carry her bridal style. He then turned to Mu Fan and said.“It’s okay, we’re being teleported to the Hidden Fragmented Realm. Hold onto me.”Mu Fan hurriedly got up and place his overly large palms on Li Shen’s shoulders.Mu Fan then watched in curiosity as a strange black light with starry light in it spread from Li Shen’s body to cover both him and Lu Yue.“What kind of ability is this?”Mu Fan said looking around. It almost seemed as
“Stop being so dramatic, I barely touched you.”Li Shen said as he gave Mu Fan who was on the ground a cursory glance.Mu Fan wined.“It is you. Bastard, do you want to get hit in the head and see how it feels?”Mu Fan then glared at Li Shen, but in response, Li Shen merely rolled his eyes and then turn back to check on an unconscious Lu Yue.Mu Fan also turned to her and asked.Is she going to be alright?”“If we can get to Jun in time, then everything will be fine.”“Is that why you let those bastards get away?”Mu Fan said as he watch Gu Jin and Shiming fly away with the rest of the Fire Empire’’s disciples and Ming Clan members.Li Shen shifted his head to look in their direction before turning back to Lu Yue.“There will come a time when they can longer run away from me, but that time hasn’t come yet. Rather, you should be healing your injuries before thinking about fighting in your condition.”“It merely scratches, I’m fine!”Mu Fan said confidentially, but Li Shen suddenly saw
“You fucker, I’ll definitely kill you for this!!”Shiming’s face was deathly pale, but intense hatred was evident in his eyes.“Huh? How are you going to do that when you’re going to see King Yama?”Mu Fan kicked Shiming’s severed arm that held his saber to the side as he walked towards him.Shiming manage to stop his bleeding and he held his stump as he slowly got up.A crazed look was in his eyes that matched Mu Fan’s own.Mu Fan didn’t care and he rushed to lop off his head like he promised he would.He appeared in front of Shiming and did a horizontal slash.However, a crazed Shiming suddenly grasp the void and a red illusory blade appeared in his remaining hand.Swoosh!Shiming swung it towards Mu Fan’s incoming saber and a Blade Energy no weaker than Mu Fan’s own swept out.BANG!A loud explosion occurred that caused the ground beneath the two to form a massive crater.Shiming was seen flying out of the dust that had risen in the area.Even when he called on his own Blade Will h
Shiming wasn’t in a hurry as he flew over to where Mu Fan was.Previously when Mu Fan had reached this location and realized he had found Lu Yue, he didn’t hesitate to start hacking.Now laying around him were numerous bloody corpses of the Fire Empire Disciples. But of course, there were also disciples who came from various small Sects that were transported here with Lu Yue. A few disciples in the group Mu Fan came with had died too.Mu Fan frowned at this sight.Something didn’t feel right to him. He loved hacking these fuckers for what they were doing, but this type of massacre irked him.It’s as if it was all planned.Mu Fan didn’t know, but he could vaguely sense something was wrong.As Mu Fan was feeling repulsed by this massacre, Shiming’s voice echoed behind him.“Why do I always have to deal with you?”Mu Fan slowly turned to see Shiming land not too far away from him. His eyes narrowed.“You don’t have to worry about that for too long. Once I lop off your head then you never
Gu Jin would send out a fist or a palm strike towards Lu Yue and she would counter it with her Sword Technique.However, she would be blown back and injured every time.After a few more of this, Lu Yue realized that she was getting further away from the battle.Gu Jin had purposely brought them here.“Are you just now realizing the situation you’re in?”Gu Jin said with a laugh.Lu Yue had fallen to the ground and as she slowly got up, Gu Jin’s gaze roamed over her slightly disheveled body.It didn’t take a genius to understand what was going on.However, Lu Yue seemed unphased despite the blood at the corner of her lips and was even weak to the point where she had to lean on her sword for support.Looking at Gu Jin, she said.“And it seems you haven’t realized the situation you're in yet.”Upon hearing that, Gu Jin frowned.However, a moment later his expression changed.Inside his body, he sensed several strands of frigid energy slowly circulating in his meridians.If it weren’t for
