"I'm going to miss this place, so many memories" Mei Ling said with a melancholic smile as we stood before the now bustling city, I examined the changes with a smile, how much has changed since we first arrived, in just a week, we had saved the city from certain destruction and made the city better than it ever was."Yeah, but we'll be back later but for now we have a long way to go" I replied as we turned around and motioned to Shouwang who waved his hands causing several flying mounts to appear."Hop on I want to show you something" I grinned as I hopped onto the biggest mount which had beautiful blue feathers, I extended my hand courteously to Mei Ling who smiled as I helped her onto the mount."Hey, why don't we go for a race, loser has to keep watch" I chuckled as I patted the eagle which shot off into the air, leaving the clones in the dust."Hahahahaha, so long losers" Di er quickly scrambled onto his mount which took off behind me causing the others to follow suit."Woahhhh" M
CRACKThe sound of a bone breaking echoed through the tunnel as James and Mei Ling walked throught the dark tunnel, James had the ability to light up the whole cave but he intentionally chose to leave it at this for the effect, the tunnel seemed endless and the walls seemed to be made of a unique material that lined the edges which seemed to block off any connection to the outside world, along the way, they had spotted mangled bodies laying all around like some wild beast had torn them up."Hmm wait" James said as he crouched next to a body lying on the ground."Did you find out something?" Mei Ling asked while staring at the darkness before her, she was still pissed by how their adventure had changed from that of action to horror."Hmm this body seems more recently killed than the previous ones" James answered as he spread his qi all over the mangled and shriveled body."How recent?" Mei Ling asked, she immediately started feeling uneasy as she stared at the darkness like she was wai
"What?" The fiend said with shock, surprised that James knew about that secret organization."Yes tell me everything you know about them" James said with a smirk as he watched the expression of the fiend change."I can't tell you anything" The fiend replied with a conflicted look."I doubt they would put a soul lock on you, I just want to know how you are connected to them" James said to the fiend who didn't know what to do."I…i.." The fiend tried to talk but ended up stuttering instead."It seems like you have forgotten your situation, I'm not giving you a choice, maybe a beating would kickstart your memory" James said as he prepared to smash the fiend's face into the ground, he could kill the fiend and steal his memories but he didn't want to do that for special reasons."Wait wait, it's a secret realm" The Fiend blurted out in fear."What secret realm?" James as his expression grew serious at the mention of a secret realm, one had to know that most secret realms were dimensions of
Somewhere in the fire continent, a hooded figure could be seen teleporting at extreme speeds but if one paid careful attention and slowed time down, they would notice that the figure was actually running but due to the speed at which the figure moved, one would think the figure was teleporting, after moving for some time, the figure arrived at a certain huge gate, the figure stood still for a few seconds before the gate creaked open revealing a tall well dressed Fireherd with several other fireherds behind him."Greetings, Protector" The leading fireherd said as he and the others placed one knee on the ground as they bowed their heads.The figure nodded before disappearing and appearing in a huge illuminated tunnel where a single fiend could be seen seated on a pile of bodies in meditation, as if sensing the arrival of the figure, the fiend's eyes shot open as they moved towards the figure."It's time" A cold voice sounded as the fiend's eyes bulged in shock."Get ready" The figure sa
A flash of light appeared as James appeared in a desolate land, the grounds were scorched, bodies were lying around on the ground, the sky was dark and the air felt hot, a certain pressure could be felt which lowered the actual realm of whoever was feeling it."Oh what a nice atmosphere" James said with a grin as he saw the environment he had appeared in, he looked around but didn't find his 'partners'."Looks like the teleportation separated us, well guess I'm on my own for now" James said with a sigh as he looked into the distance where he could distinctly see a trace of light."They usually say we shouldn't go towards the light" James said with a chuckle as he looked around the barren land he was on then spoke"But what choice do I have" After deciding his destination, he immediately set off.*******************************************************************"Where am I?" A man clothed in blue said as he appeared on a barren and desolate land, he could feel his energy being suppre
"Urrg, I've been walking for so long and I haven't found anyone yet, why is this place so huge, am I even getting closer" James grumbled as he stared at his empty desolate surroundings, he had been walking for hours but it seemed like he didn't seem to be getting closer to the core."Is this a trap?" James asked himself as he glanced at his surroundings, it was truly bizarre how he had been in one place even after walking for so long."Hmm" James paused as he placed his palm on the ground.BZZZZSeveral rune circles extended from his palm onto the ground as the air around him buzzed, the scenery seemed like it was changing."Aha, an illusion" James beamed as he observed this change, he was right he was caught in an illusion and it seemed to be a wide one."I'm not powerful enough to break an illusion set by a demigod but I can definitely manipulate it, seems like I've gotten a trump card, the transcendents would not notice this even with their proficiency in space, only those well-ver
"Can I kill him now?" The Fiend asked with an annoyed grunt."Hold your tongue or your next words could be your last" Liu Xiang gave a cold threat to the fiend who snorted and then turned away."So what are you going to do with me now?" James asked with a frown, he had thought of several things but nothing seemed to be viable due to the disparity in strength between the two sides."Hmm let's see, I have to first find out who sent you" Liu Xiang replied with a grin.'This guy is a psychopath' James thought as he observed the sudden change in expression."Listen I already told you nobody sent me, I'm on my own" James said as he felt his breath seize."Oh don't worry after some time of torture, you'll spill the beans" Liu Xiang said with a smirk as he watched James suffer."Gu…aw.." James struggled as he felt an invisible force wrap around his neck."Are you ready to talk now?" Liu Xiang asked after a minute."Huuuu, huuu, I already told you" James said with anger as he glared at Liu Xia
"So you're really not going to tell me more, please the suspense is killing me" James said with a groan as he and Xi Shi moved towards the core."Well at this moment it should be a mutual exchange, otherwise you can wait till we pass the mission" Xi Shi said calmly before she focused on the path before them, her eyes seemingly lost in thought."Well since you intend to keep it to yourself, suit yourself we're almost there anyway, soon I'll get to see it myself" James said as they walked right through a transparent, immediately the scene before them changed from the original deathly and chaotic environment to a calm and peaceful environment."This Fiend wasn't simple" James said with a frown."You can feel it too?" Xi Shi asked in shock."Yeah it feels like it's not there but I can definitely feel it, that thin aura of chaos that changed form" James replied with form as some information formed in his mind, the only way to become a god was to comprehend a law and to be able to become a
