Number One Under Heaven -
Chapter 32: Fiend
“So how do I choose my master?!” Tian Yi asks again.
“Well, there are two types of teacher you can choose.” The Sect Master starts explaining.
“The first type are the professional ones who has been teaching for many years. Their ways of teaching and how effective they are is already well known. They all have many disciples under them and will guide them all at different paces.
The second type is the ones who are new as a teacher, and they have little to no disciples under them, at least until they prove themselves and grow in popularity.
If you want a more lively environment, you should choose the professional teachers. Many talented disciples tend to go after them because they know that they will Cultivate faster under their guidance.
As for these who have little talent, they will go to the newer teachers to make a gamble and see if the teacher can guide them effectively.
But in your case, it does not matter. So which type will you choose?” He finishes explaining.
“….” Tian Yi closes his eyes to think.
“I don’t know! I’ll have to go and see for myself.” He finally said.
“Is that so? Good. Tomorrow, there is a Master Selection for all of the newer disciples. I’ll lead you to go look for a Master before I leave you alone.”
The Sect Master did not want him to choose the wrong Master…
“Un. Thanks.” He thanks him.
“Don’t mind it. I’ll arrange for your housing. Wait here for a few moment.” The Sect Master leaves.
Right after the Sect Master leaves, both Qiu Heng and Chan Jingyi came inside.
“How was it? Are you a disciple now?” Qiu Heng asked him.
“Yes.” He nods.
“Great! Now we will see each other more often.”
“Hey, want to spar sometime? I have nobody here except Junior Sister Jingyi to fight here…” Qiu Heng asks him.
He is the strongest disciple within the Sect, and nobody dares to spar with him.
But now that there’s this monster here, although he knows he will lose, he will at least gain some insight.
“Are you sure? I won’t go easy.” He smiles.
“Are you trying to kill me?!” Qiu Heng did not get angry and laughs.
“Junior Brother Yi, where will you be living? Are you going to be close to us?” Chan Jingyi asks.
“No, I’ll be living in the Outer Court.” He answers.
“What?!” They were both shocked.
Outer Court? That’s the place where the Outer Court Disciples lives at!
“I want to live there as an Outer Court Disciple.” He explains.
“Why?! The Spirit Power is way better in the Center because we are right on top of the Spirit Vein!” Qiu Heng asks.
Nature’s Spirit Veins, born with time and builds up with Spirit Power. They are like vast roots underground with a massive amount of Spirit Power in it, and it gathers the Spirit Power in that area faster.
The bigger and richer the Spirit Veins are, the more people will fight for them.
They are used as a foundation for every Sects and Family. The Spirit Veins as the Root and the Sect or Family as the Tree.
Without a Spirit Vein underground, Spirit Power will not gather around your area faster, and you will not be able to Cultivate as efficient as these who have one.
Sects and Families are ranked by the Spirit Veins they have first, then their Strength as a whole next.
If you have no Spirit Veins, you’re in the Low Class.
With Spirit Veins, you’re a Middle Class.
With Spirit Veins and a decently Strong Sect or Family, you’re a High Class.
“Because it’s too quiet. All you people do is Cultivate and nothing else.” He said.
“Then are you not going to Cultivate?” Chan Jingyi asks him with a weird face.
“Cultivate? Me? Hahaha.” He starts laughing.
“W-what’s so funny?” She asks him with a frown.
“Ah, I am not laughing at you. Forget about it.” He smiles.
If he Cultivates in the Mortals Realm, he’ll definitely be cursed to death for stealing all of the Spirit Power!
“So with that said, I’ll be an Outer Court Disciple. Come chat with me when you have time.” He said.
“….” They were both speechless.
After a few more minutes, the Sect Master comes back with a bag in his hand.
“Junior Brother Yi, here’s your Sect uniform and your key to the house.” He hands him the bag.
“As for the house, it’s located right next to the Green Bamboo Mountain, door number 91309.”
“The house was just newly built, so there is only you in there right now.” He continues.
He bullshitted.
The house was new, but he kicked out every occupant in there. Although they felt wronged, they did not dare to refuse.
Even though Tian Yi said not to give him special privileges, how could he possibly let a Spirit King live with True Qi disciples?
Will they even be able to sleep or Cultivate properly knowing there’s a monster living with them?
“Thank you. Ah, can she live with me?” Tian Yi points at Meng Xiang.
“Of course! She’s your personal servant after all!” He nods.
He bullshits again.
Many disciples here had servants, but they were not allowed to live together.
If they let them live together, where will the other disciples stay?
Which is why they live in a separate housing just for servants.
“Are you really going to be an Outer Court Disciple?” Qiu Heng asks him again.
“Yes, so stop by sometimes.” He said.
“Well then, I’ll be leaving now. Tomorrow I’ll come by and bring you to pick a Master.” The Sect Master said.
“Master? You’re getting one?” Qiu Heng was surprised.
A Spirit King is looking for a Spirit Lord Master? That did not make sense
“Yes, I asked for one.” He said.
*Yaaaawn*
Meng Xiang lets out a cute yawn.
He looks at her and understood.
She was only 11 and a Mortal.
Today was a long and rough day for someone like her, both mentally and physically.
Mortals get tired easily and need sleep, unlike Cultivators who can Cultivate and not sleep for days, even years.
“I won’t bother you two anymore; I’ll also come with you tomorrow.” Qiu Heng said.
He also wanted to see who will be this monster’s Master.
“Okay, then I’ll see you all tomorrow morning.” He picks Meng Xiang up, and —- was about to fly but stops.
“Where is the Green Bamboo Mountain?” He asks.
“Ah, just put some Spirit Power in your house key, and you should be able to locate it.” Qiu Heng explains to him.
He did it and nods, “Thanks.”
The next second, he disappears from the room.
“Eh?” Chan Jingyi was surprised.
“How did he do that?” She asks.
“Ah, you thought he was at the Initial Spirit Realm?” Qiu Heng looks at her with a wide grin.
“W-what is that suppose to mean?” She had a bad feeling about this.
“Hahahahaha, you thought he was only an Initial Spirit Realm expert because you have only seen him fly?” He laughs.
“Stop laughing and hurry up and tell me!” She frowns.
“You should forget about it and continue Cultivating diligently. If you find out, you’ll lose confidence.” He said to her.
“Tell me! If I lose confidence, I am not Chan Jingyi!” She shouts out in a heroic voice.
“Are you sure? Okay then... Don’t blame me for not warning you.” His face turns serious.
*Gulp*
She starts to feel nervous for some reason and swallows the nervousness.
“He’s 18 Years Old and also a Spirit King!” He said in a low voice.
“What!!!”
“S-s-spirit K-king…” She fell on her butt from shock!
She was expecting the words ‘Advanced Spirit Realm’ to come out of his mouth, but it was actually Spirit King! Two whole freaking stages above that!
“How is that possible?!” She did not believe it.
“Whether you believe it or not is up to you, but I have personally seen him using Realm of Creations!” He said.
He had already expected her reaction to being like this.
“Realm of Creations…” She turns silent.
After a few breaths, she stands up and walks away silently.
“…” Qiu Heng did not say anything to her.
She stops at the door and turns around.
Qiu Heng saw the expression on her face and was surprised.
“It does not matter if he is a Spirit King or an Initial Spirit Realm expert. He has his own path, and I have my own! Him being more talented than I does and will not affect me or my dreams!” She said with a confident face and turned around to fly away.
“……” Qiu Heng was speechless.
“He has his own path, and I have my own…” He mumbles to himself.
“Hahahaha! She’s right! So what if he’s a Spirit King? What does that have to do with me?! Will it make me weaker? Will it take away the hard work that I have already done?! And to think that I felt depressed over such a stupid thing! I am such an idiot!” He laughs.
*Pap*
He slaps himself with both of his hands and shakes his head.
The next second he takes a deep breath and releases it.
After that, the aura around him instantly feels sharper and more domineering!
Although his Cultivation did not rise, he felt stronger than ever before!
He has broken free from the chains called inferiority and became free!
He can now finally Cultivate with a clear mind!
* * * *
At this time, near the Green Bamboo Mountain in the Outer Court, there were many disciples drinking tea and chatting outside of their houses everywhere.
“Look! It’s an Elder!” Someone points to the sky, at a figure flying towards them.
All the disciples stop chatting and stand up, preparing to greet the Elder coming.
But when the figure was close enough for them to see him, everybody was shocked speechless.
It was a young man carrying a little girl.
But what was shocking to them was not his ordinary face. Instead, it was what he is wearing.
He was wearing the uniform only an Outer Court Disciples would wear!
They all watched with wide eyes as the young man gets closer.
After a few more seconds, he stops on top of a certain house and lands right in front of the door.
He takes out a key and opens the door and walks in, ignoring everybody’s dumbfounded stares.
Every disciple there was still dumbfounded and could only watch as the door slams shut.
“……”
“What the fuck just happened?”
“Was that not an Elder?”
“But he was wearing an Outer Court Disciple uniform…”
“He was also fucking flying!”
“Would a Spirit Realm expert be an Outer Court Disciple? Are you stupid?”
“Then could it be a flying Treasure?”
“Obviously! But to have one as an Outer Court Disciple, he must have had encountered a good fortune.”
The neighboring disciples started to talk.
“That’s House 91309. Didn’t the Sect Master just come by and kick four disciples out because of a curse in the house? Why is someone moving in already?”
They were all shocked when the Sect Master personally came and kicked the previous occupants out.
They thought that these four disciples did something to anger the Sect Master, but later they were told by them that it was because the house was cursed!
But not even an hour later, someone else moves in.
Did the curse go away already?
“Hey, forget that, did you see him bring a female inside?”
“Yeah, it was a little girl.”
“But I thought it was prohibited to have two different genders living in the same house?”
“Maybe she is not living there, but for something else?”
“Maybe a servant? No… She was wearing some fancy clothes…”
“Then it must be a…… How bold!”
“What?! He dares to do that even knowing there are witnesses?!”
“That’s even bolder! He did not care about the public’s eyes and still dared! And such a young one too!”
“Creepy!” Some female shouted.
“Disgusting!” Another one yells.
“Aiya, a creepy neighbor has moved in…”
The disciples start to gossip about this new creepy neighbor.
* * * *
Inside the room, Tian Yi scans the house with his Divine Sense and then carries the sleepy Meng Xiang into the bedroom, placing her on the bed.
“Big Brother, can you sleep with me tonight?” She asks him.
Since her parents had died, she has always been sleeping alone in the streets.
“Un. I’ll stay by your side until you fall asleep.” He nodded and sat on the edge of the bed, combing her silky black hair with his fingers.
“Sleep tight.” He says with a gentle voice.
But she stares at him with a worried face.
He smiled and said, “Don’t worry. I promise you that when you wake up, I will still be here.”
“You promise?” She whispers.
“I promise.” He said.
“Un. Good night, Big Brother.” She closes her eyes.
“Good night…” He also closes his eyes, holding onto her small hand.
The next minute, her breathing stabilizes, and her face turns peaceful.
She has fallen asleep.
* * * *
In the middle of the night, Tian Yi opens his eyes, but it was no longer black. It was Golden colored.
He looks at the sleeping Meng Xiang and smiles.
He lets go of her hand and disappears from the room.
* * * *
In the Mortals Realm, there is a sea called the Bloody Sea with water that looks and smells like blood.
Nobody knew why it was like that, but this Bloody Sea had no living creatures in it and was only a 500 miles long circle in the middle of the natural sea.
Past the 500 miles, at the borderline of the Bloody Sea, it was cut off like water and oil with the other side being a natural sea.
Nobody knew what caused this phenomenon. But because it did not cause any harm, with the exception that death will await these idiots who go in, they decided to ignore it and made it one of the 4 Forbidden Zones in the Mortals Realm.
Even Sky Realm experts will melt like butter in heat when touching the bloody water in the Bloody Sea.
Even Jin Long, the Golden Dragon, did not know what was dwelling within it.
In the middle of this beautiful night, with the moon smiling and the stars flickering, a green light flickers in the center of this Bloody Sea.
This green light flickers at the pace of a heartbeat.
It grows bigger and bigger each time it flashes.
After flashing for the 999th time, it stops.
A moment later, the whole Bloody Sea turns green, and when the whole red sea finally turns green, the whole sea flickers one last time.
*BOOM*
The water bursts out like a volcano and a huge figure jump out of the now green water and stand on the Bloody Sea.
The bulky figure was hundreds of meters tall, with crimson red skins and blood red eyes.
On its head is a pair of broken horns and the killing intent it is emitting was enough to suffocate a Sovereign Realm expert to death!
“Haahaahaaaaah! I am finally free!” It laughs in a hoarse voice.
“Yun Imperial Family! You fucking monkeys have sealed us for millions of years! But now that we finally have a way to escape, we’ll make sure to slaughter your entire world and drink all of your blood! Hahahaha!” It shouts with a murderous voice.
“Fiend, you sure have a big dream for someone like an ant… No offense to ants, though. ” A calm voice enters its head.
The ‘Fiend’ had a scare and screams, “Who are you?!”
“You should not worry about who I am, instead… You should worry about yourself.” The voice replies.
“Yun Family?! No, if it were these bastards, they would’ve already dispatched people to deal with us. But even if that was the case, it will not matter because they will not be able to stop our resurrection this time around!” It thinks to itself.
“I don’t know who you are, but why don’t you show yourself? Or are you scared?” It said in a provoking voice.
“Trying to provoke me? Although I would love to be there personally and kill you with my hands, I am quite busy at the moment…”
“Hmph, I do not care who you are, but you will not be able to stop us! Once my brothers break their seal, this world is done for! We will make sure to torture all of you lowly humans slowly and make you animals beg for death!” It sneers.
“It is okay to have dreams, but one thing you should know about dreams is that…. It will not always become true…” The voice was still calm as if it did not affect him.
“Hahaha! We’ll see about that!” It laughs and jumps.
*BOOM*
A 100-meter tsunami was created by that force, and in the next second, the Fiend was already in space!
It looks behind, at the massive world, unable to see the end! That was how big the Mortals Realm was!
“Hahahahah! All bark but can’t bite! Now all I have to do is fly to the Spirit Realm and begin my massacre there!”
Each Realm was separated by billions of miles and an invisible wall at the end.
Each Realm is the world by itself, yet they were also all in the same World!
Mortals Realm is the World by itself, yet it’s also a Realm part of an even bigger World!
For it to reach to the next Realm just by flying, it will take thousands of years even with a Cultivation like a Fiend’s!
And only if you have a strong enough Cultivation, will you be able to break through that invisible wall and go to the next Realm!
This is why people use Realm Gates, by connecting each Realm with a Formation. But this Formation needs an enormous amount of Spirit Power to activate! So much that barely anyone was willing to do it unless it was necessary! And to make it even worst, they have to pay the same amount for each person going through it!
The Fiend was currently speeding its way to the next Realm, laughing. But then he felt a shiver down his spine and looks back.
However, he instantly regrets looking back! The scene behind him has scared him shitless!
He starts to use his Blood Essence, which is basically his Cultivation to speed up even more.
Blood Essence is basically your Cultivation.
If you burn your Blood Essence, you will burn your Cultivation! If you burn it too much, your Cultivation will drop! And if you kept on burning it, it might even cripple your entire Cultivation, turning you into a disabled person unable to Cultivate!
Blood Essence can not be recovered from Pills or time. It can only be recovered by Cultivating it back!
But the Fiend did not care and kept on burning it as much as he can, trying to escape the hell coming for him!
Following behind him is currently hundreds of flickering golden light.
Each golden light is an arrow; a Golden Arrow made from Pure Spirit Power!
Just the power of one Golden Arrow was enough to scare his dark soul away, yet there was hundreds of them chasing after him!
“WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON?! WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU?!” He roars in anger!
His Cultivation was enough to wipe the entire Immortals Realm away, yet these Golden Arrows makes him feel extremely uncomfortable!
These Arrows chasing him was like devils haunting him, despite being one itself!
“AAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!” He screams in frustration.
He was burning his Blood Essence as fast as he could. However, these freaking arrows are still way faster!
Not even a minute later, the Golden Arrows were right behind him!
“FUUUUUUUUUUCK YOOOOOOOOU!!!!!” He screams as loud as he can, making cracks in the void around him!
He activates all of his Spirit Power and decides to fight these arrows head on!
But that action was completely useless since the moment he tries to punch the Golden Arrow, it pierces straight through his arm like paper!
But the injured arm regenerates within a second!
*schhwaff* *schhwaff* *schhwaff* *schhwaff*
The Golden Arrows rains on his body, making bloody holes nonstop!
Although it had godlike regeneration powers, it could not keep up with the Golden Arrows!
*schhwaff* *schhwaff* *schhwaff* *schhwaff*
Hundreds of Golden Arrows pierces right through his red body nonstop!
*schhwaff* *schhwaff* *schhwaff* *schhwaff*
It continues for a few more breaths and stops.
The Golden Arrows starts floating in space.
The hundreds of meters tall Fiend was no longer there, so there was nothing else to shoot!
Not even a tiny cell of its body remains! It was slain to the point where not even a hair was left!
The remaining Golden Arrows starts to break down like sand, disappearing into space.
The world turns silent again.
* * * *
Tian Yi was currently hovering above the clouds, right on top of his house.
He was no longer the ordinary looking Mortal, but the extremely handsome son of the Celestial Emperor!
His long hair was dancing behind him after being blown by the wind and narrowed eyes like he was just concentrating his sights on something.
On his left hand, he was holding onto a Golden Bow made of Golden Flames.
“A mere low-rank Fiend yet talks like he is a god. Laughable.” He said in a low voice.
“Luckily I was here or else this world would’ve perished into dust.”
“The Fiend God’s Clan huh? Interesting… Just keep on trying to crawl out of that hole and make it easier for me to shoot you down…”
The sun starts to rise, and the sunlight makes his already godly appearance even more holy and heroic.
“It’s almost morning…. She should be waking up soon…”
“I wonder what his response will be and how long it will take him…” He starts to think.
He disappears from that spot, leaving nothing behind.
* * * *
Somewhere in a Higher Realm is an Old Man sitting in the Lotus Position.
“Haaa, so he was in my world this entire time…” He sighs.
“No wonder why he could not find him no matter how much he searched. It was because the one he has been searching for was not even in that world! What a joke, to be fooled by your own son. Hahaha.”
He starts laughing and stops a few seconds later.
His face turns serious, “Now how should I deal with this….” He starts to think.
“To tell him or to keep this a secret and let him keep searching?”
After thinking for a while, he uses his Divine Sense and calls out, “Yun Xiuying. Come to my room; we have some important matters to discuss.”
