BANG!!As Li Shen finished those words, his aura soar exponentially.The Divine Platforms in his Qi Sea projection broke into pieces and began fusing in the center.The only Divine Platform remaining was his Seven Sin plum blossom.As the Divine Platforms continue to fuse, the aura of the Core Formation Realm grew around Li Shen. This was in junction with the Heavenly Calamity above becoming more turmoil.From three thousand meters, it doubled and became six thousand in an instant.Li Shu and the others who were at the periphery of the Heavenly Calamity trying to break it open, were violently shoved back.Li Shu hurriedly waved his hand and a white light surrounded everyone and shield them from the shockwave.Li Shu’s face become solemn as he realize the heavenly calamity had become even stronger. The progress they made to enter the tribulation was slowly recovering.Inside the tribulation, Li Shen’s aura soared and his skin which was charred black visibly began to heal. Flesh soon co
Half a year later…The chaotic war the Demonic Cult wage on the various powers on the Maple Continent, which seemed never-ending actually came to a stop.However, the Continent didn’t go back to its calm state. People who were in the know could not stop discussing the upcoming event.THE CHOSEN TOURNAMENT!!It was a first of its kind where Continent re-known geniuses would all compete for the top hundred spots. Everyone was boiling in excitement, especially when it was announced that geniuses from other Continents besides the Maple Continent and the Star Bound Continent would be attending.The excitement reached its peak when it was just one week away from this world-shaking event, and emotions were high.“Have you heard?! They say that tournament is going to be held on the Star Bound Continent!”“I’ve heard, and the Mercenary Guild Association is the one responsible for carrying our geniuses to the Star Bound Continent. I heard that they’ve open slots to carry other passengers but fo
The old man name Third Monarch Gu simply nodded his head at their greetings.“Have there been any problems so far?”Ghuanyu shook his head and said.“Respected Monarch Gu, there haven’t been any problems.”“Hm, that’s good, well done. I was first hesitant to bring weak powers like yours on board but I see now my judgment to do so was correct.”Despite facing the insult of their respected forces being called weak, Ghuanyu and Patriarch Evernight showed no reaction, simply because it was true.In the face of the power being this old man, they were nothing more than ants to them.“If this continues, the opening of the Hidden Fragmented Realm will go as planned. Our Fire Empire will use this Chosen Tournament to decide the disciples that can enter from the top one hundred.”“Monarch Gu, is it really impossible for the Hidden Fragmented Realm to be opened secretly?”Patriarch Evernight asked.Monarch Gu shook his head and said.“It can’t be hidden, and to avoid the suspicions and interfere
‘Did they really discover God Qi from the Hidden Fragmented Realm and become Quasi Heavenly Palace Realm existences? Wasn’t it not due to constant cultivation and them gaining insights over time? Then what about that Li Shu? The Hidden Fragmented Realm had not opened but he became a Quasi Heavenly Palace Realm existence, even managing to form a clone that cultivated back up to the Late Soul Transformation Realm.’Patriarch Evernight's heart was gloomy while he was in his own thoughts. Ghuanyu meanwhile had become strangely silent.Answering Patriarch Evernight’s question, Monarch Gu shook his head and said.“Our Fire Empire had only recently discovered the information I just told you two, so we are not a hundred percent certain that God Qi is inside, we are only seventy percent sure. The information also said that the Ancient Clans weren’t able to open the Divine Beasts Legacies inside the Hidden Fragmented Realm. There is a high possibility these Divine Beast Legacies might contain G
In the Mercenary City, the main branch of the Mercenary Association was as bustling as ever. The disciples were all discussing the most trending news on the continent.That included the news of Li Shen’s hidden talents and death, as well as the upcoming Chosen Tournament in a few days.Also, numerous geniuses on the Chosen Rankings started to challenge each other. They wanted to enter the tournament with a higher-ranked position.One major piece of news from this was, that the once mysterious Poison Progenitor of the Poison Demonic Cult, whose name was now known to be Tongguo Xian, suddenly revealed himself and openly challenged the person at the third position of the rankings, Ling Yichen the Handsome Alchemist.Ling Yichen was the number one genius of the younger generation from the Heaven Pillar Sect, a Holy Land for alchemists. on the Star Bound Continent. Despite the saying that alchemists weren’t battle oriented, this Ling Yichen had managed to showcase his talent in not only pi
Long Feng hearing this shifted his gaze to the woman and then said sarcastically.“From the way you speak, you seemed to know the reason for this matter. But aren’t you just trying to fish for more information from me about the Central Continent? Like I said before, I have no intentions of helping you cross the Heaven Traversing Bridge nor will I spare any information about the state of the Central Continent. Not until you tell me the identity of that masked person.”The woman name lady Ya, who turns out to be the Mercenary Association’s Leader, remained silent for a while. After a moment, she sighed.This was truly a debacle for her. On one hand was the information she desperately sought, while on the other is the dignity of the Mercenary Association.Those who join the Mercenary Association are never allowed to go against the Association or vice versa. If the individual party did then all accounts and privileges once given by the Association would be taken back, and they would be ba
Huifen perked up upon hearing that, and he waited for his Master to continue after she took a sip of her tea.“He said that the Ancient Clans created the Heaven Traversing Bridge to prevent cultivators above the Nascent Realm from leaving this sub-region.”Huifen thought for a moment, then asked puzzled.“But didn’t we know that already? The only way for someone above the Nascent Realm to exit this place is to break open the void and take the chance to enter chaotic space.”Lady Ya placed down her tea cup and said.“I thought so at first, but upon reading his facial expression I realized the oddity in his words. It sounded that to him, he was confused why there was a Heavenly Traversing Bridge in this sub-region that prevents those above the Nascent Realm from leaving.”Huifen’s eyes flickered and realization dawned on him.“Why would someone from the Central Continent be confused about the Heaven Traversing Bridge, even though the Ancient Clans were the ones who created it? Unless th
“Halt!! Step any closer and you’ll be trespassing in the Li Imperial Palace. If you don’t want to be executed then get lost!”Two guards' robes fluttered as they suddenly appeared out of nowhere to block Long Feng who was walking towards the large golden gates.The guards both released their late-stage Core Formation Realm cultivation base to pressure Long Feng. They had seen when he suddenly appear in the air before falling to the ground. It seemed he had teleported past the city’s grand formation before being suppressed by their Clan treasure.From the Qi fluctuation around him, they could also tell he was at the peak of the Core Formation Realm. The fact that he could teleport with that level of cultivation, and was even able to bypass the city’s grand formation, made them apprehensive of this youth.What's more, they realize he hadn't even flinched when their aura was pressuring him. He only swept his pupil-less eyes across them which immediately sent a shiver down this guards' sp
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
