《Emperor of the Era》 Peacefully... Lightnings struck everywhere.Black and grey clouds covered the skies.No mortal was alive,yet seven figures could be seen.A human and a beast...A huge beast. The human wore a gorgeous black robe with long sleeves while the huge beast was covered in scales.The human had long white hair and red eyes.Behind him five women were hoping that he won. ¡°I see that you gathered quite a big harem...My greatest Rival,The Human Emperor¡­¡±The Beast spoke slowly.But the voice was enough to make oceans fly away.¡±I have waited for you more thousands of years...Yet you came to me after a hundred thousand years?¡±It continued. ¡°Ah,I was busy you see,becoming strong enough to defeat you.¡±The Human Emperor said sighing happily.¡±Just like I promised,the humans have not been exterminated¡­¡±The beast said loudly. ¡°Good,then I promise that as long as I am alive,beasts will always be found everywhere.¡±The Human Emperor said closing his eyes.He took a huge breath.¡±Time to combat¡­¡±He said. Stolen content warning: this tale belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences elsewhere. ¡°Wait a minute...I still have to do something.¡±The Beast said as he revealed a shiny light from his claws.¡±This is my son...I give it to you.¡±The Beast said,¡±His potential is higher than mine,and even surpassing this damn realm is possible.¡± The Human Emperor caught the light and nodded.¡±Then there is no need to wait...Let¡¯s fight to our heart¡¯s content!¡±The Beast roared as it shot a beam towards the Human Emperor who caught it in one hand. ¡°Yes!¡±He shouted. The battle lasted 200 years and eight months,the winner was...The Human Emperor. ¡°I became old...You are the new God of the Planet¡­¡±The Beast muttered as it gave a medallion to the human emperor before it slowly closed it¡¯s eyes,peacefully with no regret¡­ Chapter [1]-[Reincarnation.] The next five chapters are fast paced as I want to reach to the main story. The chapters may be small Chapter 1 - Reincarnation? Human! The Beast¡¯s soul flew randomly,the Reaper had still to come and take his soul.Ages passed,yet it still was there.Suddenly a crack in space sucked the soul,before it appeared in another place. The Soul opened his eyes.It was hell...Lava and short and thin roads were everywhere.But it actually wasn¡¯t as bad as in books.Strange monsters guarded dead souls.The Soul saw that it was in it¡¯s human form. ¡°Human¡­¡±he muttered.¡±MOVE!¡±One of the strange monsters roared,yet the soul wasn¡¯t scared but he did move.Years and years...It moved and moved¡­ Yet it never felt tired.Now he was first,it was time to leave.But he didn¡¯t want to leave,thus karma tied it to him.His power rose,it was a miracle.Then he disappeared¡­ *** He reappeared in a ancient temple,pillars supporting the temple and small roads,and the other parts,infinite blackness.He saw a girl...A beautiful girl.¡±Darkness cannot be destroyed or sealed...But it can be defeated¡­¡±She muttered slowly.¡±We are the last pillar of light,The Guardians Of Hell and Heaven.Boy,Do you want to have a chance to become a king?¡± That question,it was filled with insights.¡±A King?That would be a mere achievement for me.I plan to be an emperor...An emperor of the era¡­¡±The soul replied,full with confidence.The girl laughed.She knew he wasn¡¯t joking. ¡°Very Well...You have two gifts...I hope you use them well.¡± The girl said before blackness enveloped everything.¡±You bastards!How dare you invade the Reincarnation Hall!¡±The soul could hear shouts,and before it¡¯s consciousness disappeared,it ran towards a direction,jumping straight into a gate. There were a lot of paths:Asura,Ghost,Human,Beast,Monster,Devil,Demon,Angel or even Mortal.But most choose either Human or Beast,the others are extremely hard to become.You need to meet several requirements. *** The beast(Soul) slowly opened his eyes.It felt weird.It was like they were smaller.He tried moving,yet he couldn¡¯t.It was blur,he barely could see anything.¡±Let¡¯s sleep¡­¡±He said in his mind before slowly closing his eyes. *** Two days before The soul opened his eyes.The Jian Clan was known for their sword mastery and ruled over the Ji Mountain Range,more than ten thousand kilometers and the Jian Mountain Range over twenty thousand kilometers. It¡¯s enemies were the: Black Serpent Sect,Chu Clan,Mao Clan,Black Blood Church and the Two Halberds Clan and many more But it also had a lot of allies,although not more than enemies,but they were stronger:The Yan Clan,Heaven Soaring Sect,Black Lightning Sect,Qian Clan and the Fanyi Clan. Two Days later,the first young master of the Jian Clan would be born.The father was Jian Lang,a famous cultivator who had no match in hundreds of thousands of kilometers.His mother was Feng Hua. Also a powerful cultivator. *** Soul slowly opened his eyes.He now knew his name,he heard it before falling asleep.Jian Yun.It was the name his parents came up with.¡± I was reincarnated¡­¡±He sighed in his mind.¡±Will I have a chance to fight my greatest rival yet again?¡±He pondered. ¡°It is no use to think about it...It seems I aren¡¯t in the same universe.¡±He thought.His universe was different.For example he heard the first cultivation realm,Martial Refiner.From what he heard he needs to refine his body,meaning refine his body enough for ki to pass easier. Did you know this story is from Royal Road? Read the official version for free and support the author. Every person started cultivating at the age of eight to ten.Geniuses at seven and supreme geniuses at six.But in Jian Yun¡¯s previous world it was ten and not eight to ten. Slowly two months passed.Jian Yun wasn¡¯t capable of talking or walking,but he could crawl,it surprised everybody.It wasn¡¯t that he crawled slow,but extremely fast,as it was that he was walking! But for Jian Yun it was natural,he was a beast.Did beast walk in two?Of course they walked in four legs! In this short two months,Jian Yun learned that he had six uncles from both sides and two aunts.They all were powerful.His mother was a beauty,having golden colored hair which were long and black eyes. Her skin was delicate as snow.His father had gray short hair and red eyes.Both were rare in this world.His parents both looked not even twenty.He could only say he would grow to be very handsome. ¡°Young Master.¡±A maid called for him. *** Jian Yun now was one year old.He could talk,walk and gather a hair of energy.He also learned more about the Realms. But only about the Martial Refiner Realm.It was divided in nine layers: one to three were early,four to six intermediate,seven to nine advanced.After it was the tenth layer,or also called Complete Martial Refiner.At that point your body will be able to use a ton. He also learned that there were around a million outer members of the clan,ten thousand inner members of the clan,a thousand core members and a hundred true members. True members were the people with the direct bloodline of the first patriarch.Currently Jian Lang was the 20th Patriarch. Jian Yun gently sat on a rock and thought,¡¯What happened to the Reincarnation Hall?¡¯It was impossible for a person to destroy it easily.In fact even invading it was impossible.The powerhouse who did that was even stronger than him,A Emperor level Beast. But he no longer was a beast.He now was a human.The race he had no interest in,yet interest appeared in his eyes now. He went to the library of the clan hall and proceeded to get a book about history.The elders at the clan hall of course were polite to him,not daring to go against him,but it was partly because he was cute and adorable. There were four books he got,¡±History Of The World¡±,¡±Wars Of The World¡±,¡±Emperors,¡±,¡±Jian Clan¡¯s enemies¡±. ¡°History Of The World Chapter 1 - Fiends And Shen Dong! Before we start talking about the history of the world,we first need to have a clear base of how the universe was created. It all started 999 billion years ago.Shen Dong appeared.He was a powerful cultivator with the power to seal the heavens.He was a FiendGod(Stoled from DE).A being with powerful bodies but weak Refining. But unlike others,he was good in both.He used all his powers to create the one trillion galaxies called The One Realm.Then a thousand years later died. With him a wave of Fiends appeared in the One Realm,but Jawa stopped them.He was the greatest cultivator after Shen Dong and still is alive. The world we live is in called the Grand Dong Major World.It has trillions of lifes inside and also an unknown number of space.¡± The other books were worthless.The second book talked about the major rebellions.The Dong Major World was divided into ten thousand major cities,with major clans in each. Chapter [2] - [~] A bit small and a bit light~You don''t need to read it all~ Chapter 2 - Chapter 2 -years later! Three years have passed.Jian Yun now is four.He now knew two realms:Martial Refiner and Martial Ki Refiner.Unlike the first realm,the second one refine the Ki,and was seperated in ten layers Rarely did people not even sixteen years old enter the Martial Ki Refiner Realm.¡±Young Master?¡±An old maid called him,he turned his head and looked at her.¡±Here you are...Come,it is time to test your talent.¡±She said sighing. Jian Yun followed her.He could manipulate his talent with his soul being hundreds of times of a human.They stopped walking.They had reached a grand castle.Hundreds of Martial Ki Refiners were everywhere. Jian Yun entered.Except his parents,only an elder was present.He was holding a sphere.It was the Grading Sphere.It would show a number from one to a hundred.1/20 was average.21/50 genius,51/70 prodigy,71/80 monster,81/90 saint. Nobody had ever hit 100 or 91.It was a legend.Jian Yun swallowed his salvia and slowly walked towards the elder who nodded.He slowly put his hands on the sphere.He felt like it was sucking his soul. Then it shone slowly,and it lasted for minutes.If it went just one more minute,He may had been blind by now.¡±100¡±The sphere stopped shining and showed this number.The average member of the clan was 10 to 15,geniuses 20 to 30 while prodigies 40-50,even the best talent was barely over sixty! ¡°Heavens!The Gods have blessed our Jian Clan!¡±The old elder was crying in happiness.Now their Clan would probably grow and become the number one clan inside a million kilometer,if Jian Yun grew safely! Jian Lang hugged his wife,Feng Hua.Even he had barely hit seventy nine(79) which was considered higher than average in the big sects. *** Two days had passed since that.The Jian Clan announced that Jian Yun¡¯s grade was eighty two,three more than his father.But yet it shocked and stunned the Jian Clan and the surrounding clans and sects. But in that time,Jian Yun was pondering.¡¯Which were the two gifts the girl was talking about¡­?¡¯He still thought about the time the Guardians were attacked.Even in his universe,Guardians were heavily worshipped,it was impossible for weak experts to do it.But first he had to become strong. Although at the moment he couldn¡¯t cultivate as his Cultivation Veins were still small,he could strengthen them by pouring Ki at them.That method was known as,¡±Early Rain.¡±It was like rain which fell in the hottest day of summer. Although he wouldn¡¯t become strong,his foundation would be already solid when he started cultivating,two years later.Two years earlier.But he would use a special stealth technique,¡±Hidden Presence.¡± To hide his cultivation until he became strong enough to reveal it.(Typical Cliche?) *** And so two years passed.Jian Yun grew to be handsome.Even at the small age of six he made girls blush.But he was stunned,stunned to learn that he had a fiance.¡±What the hell?!¡±He shouted loudly.His father,Jian Lang sighed.¡±She is the daughter of one our allied clan¡¯s patriarch.¡± This story is posted elsewhere by the author. Help them out by reading the authentic version. It wasn¡¯t that he didn¡¯t want to,but what if she was ugly?How could the handsome Jian Yun endure it?He wasn¡¯t a hero and neither was he a good fellow.Help him,he will help you.¡±Cancel it.¡±He said coldly.¡±No.¡±His father replied. ¡°Cancel.¡± ¡°No.¡± ¡°Cancel IT!¡± ¡°NOOO!¡±His father said.¡±I give up¡­¡±Jian Yun grinned as his father gave up twenty minutes later.How could he defeat a being which has lived for thousands of years in terms of endurance?He may as well give up early.But unfortunately he had no idea that his father wouldn¡¯t give up so easily. ¡°But I can¡¯t.She is coming here to sleep.¡±Jian Lang said calmly,but strangely it sounded scary.¡±WHAT?!¡±Jian Yun felt his soul being sucked out.Let alone sleeping with a girl,he was virgin for his whole life!(Yep...Don¡¯t trust the prologue!) ¡°Describe her to me.¡±Jian Yun said calmly.¡±Red hair,long,blue eyes,soft and delicate skin,almost 81 in terms of talent.¡±Jian Yun nodded.Not bad.Red Hair?He rarely saw them.He may consider it...Or not. ¡°No.¡±He said.He wasn¡¯t a pervert or con.He was merely a sage...Yeah. And then,later the said girl arrived.She was named Qian Bao,seven years old,one year older than Jian Yun.Around her were two mysterious experts,far beyond the Martial Ki Refiner Realm,maybe two realms away from it? ¡°So you are Jian Yun?¡±She said arrogantly.¡¯No please no...Not arrogant!¡¯Jian Yun thought and begged at the same time.Yes,I suppose you are Qian Bao?¡±He said calmly.¡±I am Qian Bao.I also...Don¡¯t love you!¡±She said angrily.¡±I think we have the same situation,we both don¡¯t love each other.¡±He smiled at her. Hesitating for a bit her face turned slightly red.¡±Yes¡­¡±She muttered.He caught her hands and said.¡±We need to tell our parents to cancel our engagement.¡±His head was very close to her¡¯s so she blushed but then it disappeared and a vein appeared in her forehead.¡±Don¡¯t get so close!¡±She shouted and pushed him. *** Two hours later they were having tea in a table.The tea was filled with Qi of a higher realm Cultivator.It would benefit them a lot when they started cultivating.Jian Yun started drinking it.Qian Bao did the same,she was drinking it politely and with manners of a lady. She returned two days later.The engagement was canceled.Though the Qian Clan was a bit angered,they understood that none loved each other.It would influence their future cultivation,and possibly block a bit of it. Jian Yun went to the Library and took two techniques he deemed necessary to fool his family members:Flying Wind Palm and Cloud Ki Finger. Each were fifth layer Martial Techniques.Techniques were divided in nine layers.From the fourth layer each technique was rare.But he would only casually train them.For him weak techniques had no worth at all. Chapter [3] - [Cultivation][Pain] Chapter 3 - Finally starting Cultivating! Jian Yun finally decided to cultivate.Going into a lake,a bit away from his home he sat cross-legged.He calmed his mind and tried to sense Qi.In the beginning he couldn¡¯t but after twenty minutes started to feel them.One minute took for each Cultivation Vein to be filled. Then the Qi slowly went to the small dantian.In two hours of cultivating it filled half.Jian Yun stopped cultivating and went back home.His parents would worry if he went away for a long time. ¡°Father.¡±He said when he found his father calmly drinking tea.¡±You went to cultivate/¡±He said seriously.¡±Yes.¡±Knowing that his father,Jian Lang had long since seen him cultivating he didn¡¯t bother hiding it from him. ¡°Good.¡±He said before he slowly stood up and walked away.Jian Yun could see a hidden proudness in his words.But he also felt relieved,he now could cultivate more,without bothering to hide it,after all his father would help him hide it. He was already half way to the first layer of the Martial Refiner Realm.His body was now two to three times stronger.But the reason he was so fast was because of the several herbs and medicines his father gave to him when he was younger.It also was because he trained a technique called,¡±Ten Thousand Marks¡±. Even he was not sure what it did,but one of the effects were hiding and strengthening one¡¯s body.He was sure he could beat a normal eight years old boy easily.As for first layer Martial Refiners?He wasn¡¯t a beast for god¡¯s sake,though he may be later¡­ Jian Yun went back to the lake and started cultivating yet again.One Hour,two,three and even four hours.His dantian was almost filled,but he couldn¡¯t breakthrough to the first layer.Was it because his Cultivation Veins weren¡¯t big enough? ¡®No¡­¡¯Jian Yun muttered,an idea entered his mind.Instead of sending the Qi to the dantian he decided to sent it to the Cultivation Veins and slowly raise them with Qi,which was extremely hard but at the same time easy. It was dangerous because if you used a lot of Qi there was a chance they may break,and then it was nearly impossible to fix them.But for a sage who has lived for tens of thousands of years,how could it be nearly impossible? Beasts can easily do that because their Cultivation Veins are sturdy and solid,thus it is hard for weak beasts to break cultivation veins easily.¡±To think that I would need to fall to such methods.But anyway,it will benefit my body a lot,and it may even help me reach the peak of the Martial Refiner Realm faster that I can.¡±Jian Yun said in a low voice. Two weeks later.Jian Yun had slightly grown his cultivation veins.But now he decided to actually grow them using herbs and pills.He asked his father for two pills,¡±Great Giant Pill¡± and ¡°Stone QI¡±The first one would raise his Cultivation Veins the second would make them solid. He took a huge breath and closed his eyes.Clearing his mind he quickly put the Great Giant Pill in his mouth and swallowed it.The effects quickly started to make his Cultivation Veins bigger.Two cm,three,ten,fifteen centimeters and finally twenty centimeters.It took quite a big part of his body. Then he quickly put the Stone Qi Pill in his mouth and swallowed it.The effect immediately took effect and his Cultivation Veins now were solid and better by 100% that before he swallowed both pills. He could feel his cultivation soaring!First stage,intermediate,late and peak!The effects of the pill had helped him a lot!By the end of the tenth birthday of his,even reaching the fifth layer wouldn¡¯t be a problem.But he wouldn¡¯t hurry¡­ There was no need to hurry¡­ *** Two years passed.The only person who had started to cultivate after Jian Yun was a 79 talent grade girl,Jian Wei.She was pretty childish and was eight years old,almost nine.She was Jian Yun¡¯s childhood friend. If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. Please report it. ¡°Brother Yun!¡±She shouted when he saw Jian Yun cultivating.This was the first time she had seen him cultivating.Currently Jian Yun was at the second stage,peak of it.But he could easily defeat third stage Cultivators. His father,Jian Lang was proud of him a lot.From what he learned his father was far stronger than the two mysterious experts who escorted his previous fiancee,Qian Bao.Even a thousand experts of that level were not able to defeat him. When he was seven,a big war happened and the Jian Clan won.It was a full offensive war against the Chu and Mao Clans.The Jian Clan won and divided the lands with the Qian Clan.Thanks to that the JI Clan grew and the resources became bigger. Well Jian Yun also contributed...He killed a few first layer villagers of the clan.But almost nobody knew it. ¡°Elder Sister Wei.¡±Jian Yun smiled.¡±What brings you here?¡±He asked her politely.¡±Father wanted me to call you.¡±She said.Her father was the Grand Elder,Jian Feng.He was a bit weaker than Jian Yun¡¯s father. ¡°Sure.¡±He said kindly and followed Jian Wei,his elder sister(Not actually).They stopped when they reached a small hut,in nice condition but not good for a true member of the clan.They slowly entered the hut and Jian Wei called for her father.¡±Father?¡± Then a black haired man with a small beard and blue eyes appeared.He looked ancient.It had to be known that maybe no elder inside the clan had lived for more than five hundred years.Martial Refiners live for 150 years,Martial Ki Refiners for 200.¡±Little Yun.¡±He called for him smiling. ¡°Uncle Feng.¡±Jian Yun cupped his hands and slightly bowed.He was in terms of bloodline higher than him,but he still had to show respect to him.Jian Feng was his father¡¯s sworn brother.¡±Do you know why I called you here?¡±He said,Jian Yun waved his head right and left,showing that he didn¡¯t. ¡°From what I know,you have already started cultivating,right?¡±Jian Yun nodded.¡±Before you were born,your father asked me to teach you a very painful technique called,¡±Nine Marks Of Hell.¡±Each mark raises your power and after the ninth mark you will be able to defeat people a layer higher than you.¡± ¡®To think that the small Jian Clan has such a good technique¡­¡¯Jian Yun thought.¡±Then you will teach it to me?¡±He said politely,with his hands still cupped.¡±Yes.¡±Jian Feng nodded,but he had forgotten something.How could a kid stay so calm after learning that? (Though most wouldn¡¯t take it seriously) ¡°The First mark,DRAGON.You have to endure hotness to the max.¡±Jian Feng said,then they teleported,or to be exact flew.Teleporting was only possible for immortals.They flew and flew...For hundreds of kilometers,for hours and hours¡­ Before stopping in a small plain.But there was a strange thing in the plain,there was a small lake of wa-no lava.¡±Lava¡­¡±Jian Wei almost cried,her clothes were extremely hot.Jian Yun saw that and immediately clad his clothes in Qi,he didn¡¯t do that for her as his father had already done that a moment ago. Thankfully they weren¡¯t too close to the lava or even Qi would have been burned and melted,and they would have probably died,unless Jian Feng had a hidden card.¡±Go ten meters away from the lava and stay there for as much as you can.¡±He said,Jian Yun nodded. He slowly went and sat cross-legged just ten meters away from the lava lake.Jian Wei covered her mouth.It probably was over 100C there,even she would¡¯ve easily given up in ten minutes.Not to mention Jian Yun was younger than her! ¡°Junior brother¡­¡±She clenched her fists and with tears looked at her junior brother,Jian Yun who was sweating.Meanwhile in his soul,power was soaring.He was going to use this chance to breakthrough to the third layer! Chapter [4] - [Pain!][Cultivation Realms!] These chapters are for the next weeks as I am only free in weekends,probably no more chapters coming soon. ~~~ Chapter 4 - Jian Lang was gritting his teeth.He was making a difficult decision,should he interfere if it went extremely bad?Or should he let the heavens decide his son¡¯s fate.He was his first son,and he only had another son,who was barely five years old. He named him Jian Rui.He wanted him to be as sharp as the heavens.The test of talent grade comes at the age of four,thus the test had already ended.His other son had a talent grade of 85,a bit better than Jian Yun¡¯s false talent grade. But he still knew that Jian Yun¡¯s talent was better than his brother¡¯s one.He was looking at Jian Yun sitting cross-legged.He knew that such training would drive a person insane.Yet he endured,endured and endured without stopping for a moment. Was that a level of endurance a child should possess?Of course no!He was forcing him to do that!Was he a good father?He didn¡¯t know...He had no idea...But he knew one thing,he wouldn¡¯t surrender.Not to his wife,not to his brothers or even sisters. He had decided,to become a BAD father,just for his sons¡­ This was a trial,a trial for his son,Jian Yun¡­ *** Jian Yun felt his heart saddening each moment.His cultivation was soaring,straight to the third layer,but he only felt sad.God knew how much thought had his father given this situation.It wasn¡¯t easy even for him.If it were a normal genius,let alone ten meters,even twenty would be extremely hard to endure. But even if they endured,they would be in four legs and crying.Yet Jian Yun did what nobody thought would do,moved even closer.He was eight meters away from the lake of lava!And his breakthrough to the third layer was nearing and nearing.Instead of crying,he was laughing loudly. Why was he laughing?Was what everyone present there thought(4 people...One is hidden).The reason he was laughing was because he somehow managed to realise what the first of the two gifts the beautiful girl of the reincarnation hall had given him was,a small metal. But the small metal could easily destroy planets like nothing,it held the aura...Of a GOD!Even The Beast God,him Jian Yun wasn¡¯t actually a god,and neither was he an immortal!He was merely at the top of the planet he resided! Why did he know that?It was because it was helping him!¡±Hahaha,the heavens are helping me!¡± Jian Yun couldn¡¯t help but think loudly in his heart.¡±With this metal even a fourth layer Martial Refiner would have to be careful to not be close to me!¡± Unfortunately he could barely use less than 1% Of It¡¯s real powers.If he could use all of it¡¯s powers,even a God himself would be slashed like tofu easily!¡±But what about the second one?!¡±Jian Yun was excited but he forgot that he had a task to complete. ¡°Urgh.¡±He sighed,with his current cultivation of the third layer,it still wasn¡¯t easy to block the hotness.He sighed. ¡°If only I could use my cultivation to evade the hotness and sent it in another direction.¡±But the main point was to endure the hotness. He sat cross-legged more carefully this time and tried to sense the Hot Qi.It was barely visible,but it still was there.He tried absorbing it,but he couldn¡¯t.Then an idea sparked inside him mind.He sucked the Qi which was helping him.He immediately absorbed the Hot Qi and then switched to his usual Qi. He did the switch each two seconds.Then three,four and finally five.Jian Feng was looking at him with eyes wide open.He looked at him for a moment again before starting to madly laugh.¡±A genius!He really is a genius!No wonder Brother said he is a prodigy!¡±Before,he didn¡¯t want to teach his only nephew and now one of his two nephew¡¯s such a dangerous technique,but now he was sure! If you discover this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation. He,Jian Yun was the only one who can complete the technique!Nine Marks Of Hell was founded by the fourth patriarch years ago in an ancient ruin thousands of kilometers away,now it is one of the main cities of the Jian Clan. But even the strongest and best genius of the clan barely reached the fourth mark,and that was twenty years ago!Currently that genius was...Jian Feng himself!A Grand Elder!One of the extremely few Grand Elders! The reason Jian Feng never told Jian Yun the second or third mark of the hell was because it was nearly impossible for him to enter it!The people who have reached the second mark can be counted in one hand,the third were only three and fourth only one,Jian Feng.As for the first mark?They can be counted in two hands! ¡°Nice,nice¡­¡±Jian Feng muttered happily,forgetting his daughter,and then noticing it.He laughed loudly and hugged his daughter.Maybe even their opponents would be long destroyed soon.¡±He will probably become A Martial Fighter before twenty!¡± There were five realms of cultivation they knew:Martial Refiner,Martial Ki Refiner,Martial Fighter,Martial Artist and Martial Master.Jian Yun¡¯s father,Jian Lang was a Martial Master.Actually,Qian Clan¡¯s patriarch and most enemies and allies were all at the Martial Master Realm! The Grand Elder of the Jian Clan,Jian Feng was also a Martial Master!One of the thirty Martial Masters! Jian Yun had no time to look at that lovely moment as he was in a big danger.He neared the lava lake two more meters,six meters away from it!God,maybe only Martial Masters would dare to directly enter it. ¡°Stop,You have already mastered the first mark!¡±Jian Feng¡¯s voice rang out like a thunder.The lava disappeared!For him sucking lava out of the lake was nothing!Jian Yun could only disappointedly stand up to his feet and sigh. He had reached the intermediate level of the third layer.A layer had several levels:Early,Intermediate,Late,Advanced,Peak and Pinnacle.In total six levels!The first three levels had little difference,but the last three levels had a lot of difference. Then Jian Yun noticed a beast coming towards Jian Wei.It wasn¡¯t strong,actually it was barely counted as a second layer beast,but it still could easily devour her in one go!Jian Feng hadn¡¯t noticed it because of his happy condition so only Jian Yun could act. ¡°Flying Wind Palm!¡±He thought in his mind as he thrust his palm forward,summoning a huge compressed wind palm which shot towards the beast.The beast hadn¡¯t expected for such a weak kid to be stronger than it so it was caught surprised.Whoooosh!The Beast died! Jian Feng had finally noticed the beast!For a moment his heart skipped a beat,but after seeing the beast die he calmed.But then yet again,his heart skipped a beat!His mind couldn¡¯t register the information! ¡°H-hhh-ee-HEAVENS!¡±He shouted loudly.A kid had killed a beast!How shocking would that be for the child?!What would he say to his brother?!He had ruined his talent,probably! ¡°Are you okay?!¡±He asked shocked and worried.¡±Y-ye-s.¡±Jian Yun tried to sound as scared as possible.But he had no idea that the acting had worked extremely well!Jian Feng sighed in relief.When Jian Wei noticed the dead beast she was left speechless!Her Junior brother had done that! He was just barely eight.¡±Junior Brother¡­¡±She muttered slowly.She felt sad,sad that she would leave a bloody mark in his memories!But unfortunately none knew that killing that beast had no effect in his body at all,he only felt small sadness for killing his own race,which he had been years ago! Jian Feng quickly took Jian Wei and flew towards Jian Yun who was lying in the ground breathing heavily and drinking a cup of water quickly.He had gotten the cup and the water from his bag.The bag was made from a Martial Fighter¡¯s fur and claws so it¡¯s endurance was top notch. Chapter [5] - [BlackStone Tribe!][Jian Chen!] I trolled all of you guys!Here is a chapter lol! Going to try posting one chapter a day. ~~~~ Chapter 5 - Returning!Years Later! Jian Yun and the others quickly got up after twenty minutes.they had eaten the beast of the second layer.Beasts unlike humans had different realms,but the humans only called them in numbers,from one to ten,each for a layer.As for the second realm,they called them second grade. They weren¡¯t in a hurry this time.They slowly returned to their home,the Heaven Sword City.The capital of the Jian Clan.Actually the Jian Clan could only be said to be a lower tier clan before,but now it was a middle tier clan.The whole one hundred million kilometers around the Jian Clan formed a high tier clan territory.But unfortunately nobody had even united everyone since ten thousand years ago. Jian Yun smiled at Jian Wei.She was still thinking that he was angry at her.¡±I don¡¯t hate you,Senior sister.¡±He sighed before telling her and then proceeding to go to his home,where his father was waiting for him. He sighed when he saw him.¡±Father¡­¡±He muttered slowly.It wasn¡¯t that he hated him or anything,but his father¡¯s face now was calm and a bit cold.¡±Where were you?¡±He asked.¡±Training with uncle Feng.¡±Jian Yun replied calmly. ¡°Is that so?Where did you meet him?¡±Jian Lang asked him.¡±At a small hut far away from our house,in the forest close to a lake.¡±He replied calmly.¡±Is that so?You are free to return to your room.¡±Before going to his room he looked at the window. His hair was white and a bit gray and red eyes.He had gotten these from his mother and father.He had delicate skin and refined eyebrows.He was a bit tall for his age.He went to his room and sat cross-legged. *** Two years had passed.Now almost every person of the young generation had started to cultivate.Jian Yun had entered the fifth layer,unfortunately without even wanting to.But even so he would anyway be able to easily defeat any person in the fifth layer.After him the strongest person was Jian Chen,at the third layer.The next one was at the pinnacle of the Second Layer. Jian Yun was given the title of the Ultimate Genius.But he had concealed his cultivation and it only revealed that he was at the fourth Layer.Jian Wei was at the pinnacle of the second layer,and was extremely close to the third layer. Jian Chen was the son of a Grand Elder and another Grand Elder.In total there are eight Grand Elders and seventy two Elders.He was somehow very calm and not arrogant,unlike the typcal geniuses. He was almost ten and was very handsome,just like a prince.In a way he was a prince.If we sent a True Member of the clan into a kingdom,he would be worshiped like a god.Especially in mortal kingdoms. As Jian Yun was going to go into seclusion to cultivate,he saw a boy heading this way.He had short charming red hair and charming aqua eyes.His skin was as delicate as a woman¡¯s.He was also a bit clumsy,almost falling every twenty steps. ¡°Brother Yun!¡±He waved his hand and called for Jian Yun who raised an eyebrow.¡±Planning to go in seclusion?!¡±He shouted.¡±Can I join you?¡±He asked and Jian Yun nodded,he didn¡¯t see a reason to not accept.he had to keep good relationships with the young generation. Jian Chen nodded.They entered a small Immortal Cave.Immortal Caves were rich essence caves where there was enough Qi to breakthrough layers and layers.But they were rare,and only the Grand Elders possessed them.Of course there were a few reserved for the young generation.In total there were around fifteen to twenty. They both sat around ten meters away from each other and sat cross-legged.Immediately Qi started to enter their bodies slowly.There were two processes Qi had to pass to enter their bodies:Absorbing and Refining. Of course because Jian Yun¡¯s talent was better than Jian Chen¡¯s he got more Qi and absorbed even more.He planned to cultivate for one to three months. *** Two months had passed since the two boys had entered seclusion.Four Martial Fighters were heavily guarding them,and two Martial Artists,were also guarding them.Thus no enemy dared to enter the cave. Stolen from its original source, this story is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings. In two months Jian Chen broke through to the fourth layer while Jian Yun to the pinnacle of the fifth layer,and almost at the sixth.If he wanted he could easily enter the sixth layer in a blink of an eye. But he couldn¡¯t cultivate for every moment.After all a Cultivator¡¯s life was big.Even now,his lifespan was over 150 years.A normal mortal barely lived over ninety to one hundred and mostly eighty or seventy years before dying. Jian Yun stood up to his feet.He was covered in dust.He wiped the dust and stretched his hands and arms.They felt itchy.After all he hadn¡¯t moved for two months.His stomach growled.Thanks to Qi and seclusion,which was close to a bear¡¯s sleep in winter food need was lowered. Jian Yun clapped his hands and suddenly a wave of food came.It was the four Martial Fighters bringing food.¡±Brother Yun ?¡±Jian Chen had also woken up.He looked at Jian Yun and called him.¡±Come and eat.¡±He said calmly calling him to eat.He nodded and slowly got up walking towards Jian Yun. He sat cross-legged and ate politely.Although he was a bit older than Jian Yun,he felt like he was the junior.¡±Brother Yun,can we spar later?¡±He asked excitedly.He had always wanted to fight Jian Yun,ever since he heard of his talent and power at a young age. ¡°Of course,but later¡­¡±Jian Yun replied calmly as he swallowed a part of meat.He was not in a hurry.They had months and months.Besides,what could he do other than train?Fall in love?Him?Never. Then a person neared them¡±Young Master Yun,Prince Chen,The Patriarch is awaiting for you two.¡±He said politely.He was a Martial Fighter.Jian Yun and Jian Chen nodded.Although there were at least five hundred Martial Fighters in the clan,they still had to be polite to him as he was stronger than them,and at most they could defeat a seventh layer Martial Refiner together. They politely followed him,they,or at least Jian Yun could sense three more figures behind,three more Martial Fighters.They were walking in a road with good stones,strong enough for only fourth layer Martial Refiners to be able to destroy. They stopped when they reached a gorgeous castle of red and black.It was at least two hundred meters tall and surpassed the clouds,reaching the ends of the blue sky,though not in reality.Two guards of the Martial Ki Refining Realm were guarding. The trio easily entered the castle and headed towards the gate,which was closed.They entered and went straight to the tenth floor.They entered a big room.JIan Lang,the patriarch was waiting for them.He wore a dark long sleeves robe and was calmly drinking tea. ¡°You came¡­¡±He said calmly as he took the tea to his mouth and drank it a bit.Jian Chen and Yun cupped their fists and bowed to him,after all he was the patriarch,the one who ruled over millions of Jian Clan Members. ¡°I called you guys to complete a mission.I want you to go to a tribe called,¡±BlackStone¡± and collect their monthly taxes,as they haven¡¯t paid them for around five months by now.¡±He said.If he wanted other people could easily take care of this,but he gave it to the two because he wanted them to get fighting experiences. The two nodded.With their abilities a simply tribe could be easily dealt with.Tribes under their clan¡¯s protection were usually weak with not even a fifth layer Martial Refiner as the chef.The Blackstone Tribe had a sixth layer Martial Refiner as a chef,but even so it was nothing for them,especially with Jian Yun almost reaching the sixth layer,but even if he didn¡¯t,the team of him and Jian Chen was enough to deal with him. ¡°Father,I want to ask you,can we get two Martial Fighter Level Weapons?(Not revealing weapon levels yet)¡±Jian Yun asked and Jian Lang nodded.¡±It will be done¡±He said.Martial Fighter Level Weapons weren¡¯t actually rare enough for the Jian Clan to not possess them,Martial Artist Level Weapons were rare. Then they left the castle itself¡­ I already have almost written another chapter,1000 words,so expect another chapter maybe tonight! P.S I don''t have a paypal or anything,so if you want Extra Chapters,just rate me one,every five reputation points I will post an extra chapter just for you guys! Now going to go write... Chapter [6] - [NO TITLE] Sorry for not posting it yesterday,you see I wanted to write a quarter of the next chapter before posting this,IT became a habit ~ ^.^ ~ So here is the sixth chapter of the month! ~~ Chapter 6 - [Blackstone Tribe!] Jian Yun took two blue talismans and four seals together with him.They could easily repel a Martial Fighter for some hours.Jian Chen was even more doted by his parents and got more treasures.Jian Yun could¡¯ve taken even more,but he didn¡¯t want to waste his family¡¯s treasures. Jian Yun and Jian Chen had ten Martial Fighters on their command.They would kill if needed.Although the BlackStone Tribe may be a weak tribe,they still couldn¡¯t sent two talents to their deaths.They had to give helpers to them. ¡°Brother Chen,are you sure you want to come with me?¡±He asked Jian Chen who replied,¡±Of course,brother Yun.¡±He said smiling.The way to the BlackStone Tribe wasn¡¯t easy.The BlackStone Tribe was located 1521 Kilometers away from the main clan. There were a lot of monsters to there,though they were sealed by the Jian Clan and couldn¡¯t kill Jian Clan members.But they could injure them to a certain degree,but at the same time Jian Clan members couldn¡¯t kill the monsters,or try to slowly injure them. The whole journey would last three days,six days in total.The road to there was easy for them,with ten Martial Fighters in their power.¡±Brother Chen,Do you have any idea why there are monsters here?¡±He asked Jian Chen who said,¡±No idea.¡± ¡°The reason is to make our generation grow...From a measly fatty to muscular men.¡±Jian Yun answered.¡±From people who barely used his own powers,to people who always used his own power to survive,not his comrade¡¯s.¡± They talked while walking.They weren¡¯t too far away from the BlackStone Tribe currently,around one day worth of riding their horses.Then suddenly forty bandits appeared.Or to be exact tribe members!They were from the RedBull Tribe!A low tier tribe with barely any Martial Refiner! ¡°Get away,trash.¡±Jian Yun sneered as he waved his hand,making the forty tribe members fly away extremely fast,leaving to time for them to say any word.¡±Wait.¡±He said to a bandit who was about to leave in a hurry.He flicked his hand and everything in his body flew towards Jian Yun,the bandit then ran away. He had a transmission Seal and two Spirit Stones.Spirit Stones were the currency.They were seperated into:Low,Middle and High.After that came Spiritual Stone Essence. The Jian Clan had a few Spiritual Stone Essences which were rare,and even most of the other clans and sects had fewer than them,with a few having none or more.Even Jian Yun had barely over a hundred Spiritual Stones with him now. ¡°Suspicious...Although two is not much nobody carries them ...Especially Tribe Members¡­¡±Jian Yun¡¯s eyes flashed black.¡±It can¡¯t be ...A Rebellion?¡±Rebeling...It was impossible even if a hundred tribes joined together.But if all the tribes joined together they may create a clan,although not enough to destroy the Jian Clan,it was enough to pose a danger for them. ¡°Jian Yi and Jian Chu,go and spy the neighbour tribes.Tell me anything suspicious you see.¡±He said after a moment of thinking.The two said Martial Fighters nodded and disappeared immediately together with the wind. ¡°Jian Chen,you have to be careful.¡±Jian Chen nodded,if Jian Yun said his name it probably was a serious thing.He had to be really prepared for anything which may happen soon to them.But even so,he wasn¡¯t worried,the Jian clan was a hundred times stronger than all the tribes together. ¡°An beast who has lived their entire live in peace...Will never become free,Chen...Remember that...War is not something to be underestimated¡­¡±Jian Yun said sighing,remembering his life as a beast.He had to kill and kill and kill.He soaked his entire body in blood every hour. Jian Chen just sighed.He knew that,yet he couldn¡¯t just do it right away.Freedom is not something which can just happen.Jian Yun didn¡¯t say anything any longer.He wasn¡¯t somebody who would explain every single word to a weak person. In their road to the BlackStone Tribe they meet many more bandits of several tribes,but the strongest was an average fifth layer Martial Refiner.And now,they finally reached the tribe.It was simply a small village surrounded by wodden walls.Inside it had a few tens of wodden houses. If you spot this tale on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation. In the middle,there was a bigger house,made of a bit stone and bricks.Then suddenly two people appeared before them.¡±Suspicious.¡±Both of them were fifth layer Martial Refiners.Even the BlackStone Tribe may barely have any of them,so sending two to guard was stupid. He showed them a medallion yet the two guards didn¡¯t let him go.¡±I am sorry but you can¡¯t go through here.¡±They said coldly.Jian Chen was furious.He commanded a Martial Fighter to crush them to dust.And so they did. Suddenly four more fifth layer Martial Refiners came.It was shocking!Jian Yun was now sure,something suspicious was truly happening!¡±Devil Aura!¡±Jian Yun shouted in his mind.They were Devils! Devils from probably an evil sect!The closest Evil Sect was the,¡±Blood Devil Sect¡±!It had a few Martial Artists and one Martial Master.¡±Devils¡­¡±He muttered,loudly enough for the four disciples to hear him. ¡°Kill him!¡±One of them roared.The three others attacked,but before they could do anything to him,two Martial Fighters had already crushed them to dust.The last one was a pinnacle Fifth Layer Martial Refiner,but before the two Martial Fighters killed him,Jian Yun interrupted. ¡°I am going to kill him alone.¡±The current Jian Yun had already entered the sixth layer,and his concealed cultivation was the fifth layer,it would be easy for him to defeat an average pinnacle fifth layer cultivator! He raised a palm.¡±Flying Wind Palm!¡±He exclaimed as wind gathered to form a palm which flew towards the devil who roared.He thrust both hands forward sending scales of blood forward,blocking the wind palm. ¡°BOOM!¡± The two attacks collided with each other,creating a small crater.Jian Yun used this chance to attack yet again.He raised a finger and covered it in Ki.¡±Cloud Ki Finger!¡±It was misty and suddenly a ray of cloudy Qi shot from his finger,directly attacking the devil. The devil was caught off guards and barely gathered a small barrier of blood to protect himself,but it was useless.The ray pierced the blood barrier and wounded the devil.Jian Yun saw that he had no chance of killing him with that single attack and slapped his bag of holdings. A shiny sword with symbols on it flew towards him.It was the Martial Fighter Level Weapon given by his father to him.He poured Qi on it,activating it¡¯s powers.He swung it once,and a terrifying wave that no sixth layer cultivator could block appeared,it was made from Qi! The wave of Qi shot towards the Devil who tried to evade,yet was stunned to realise that it couldn¡¯t move!It was the Blue Talisman he got from the treasury!For once,the devil cursed it¡¯s fate,it had chosen a weak tribe,thinking the Jian Clan wouldn¡¯t care,yet it became a pillar of Jian Yun¡¯s grow! He desperately tried to escape yet it couldn¡¯t.It was regretting coming here.But It couldn¡¯t.It was too late to regret.The terrifying wave of qi had already invaded his body,instantly killing him.The Eight Martial Fighters and Jian Chen were stunned!The fight had not even lasted five moves! ¡°B-b-rr-o-Brother Yun!¡±Jian Chen was surprised!He was almost shocked.He was at the fourth layer and could probably defeat average fifth layer cultivators,but he had no idea that a person could skip two layers and defeat a person!(He thought Jian Yun was at the fourth stage) ¡°You broke through to the fifth layer?!¡±He asked shocked and Jian Yun nodded.He had no reason to hide something he did months ago(Lol). But actually Jian Yun was already in the sixth layer,having broken through days ago.A Few days before they arrived at the BlackStone Tribe,or at least close to it.¡±Then let¡¯s enter the village.¡±He said muttering.But before he could even enter it,a hundred devils appeared! Some were of the sixth stage,some of the seventh.Some were even Martial Ki Refiners! Jian Yun sighed and gave the order for the eight Martial Fighters to attack.They quickly attacked,killing enemies immediately!The devils could only regret coming here before dying. A Martial Fighter¡¯s power was absolute! It didn¡¯t take five minutes for the fight to end! One Week Holiday!

Then the two Martial Fighters he sent to spy returned.¡±Young Master,we learned that in around two hundred Tribes,people from the Blood Devil Sect.In total,the strongest masters were Martial Fighters,which we defeated long ago.¡± Jian Yun nodded.¡±It seems that a person from the Inner Clan sold the tribes to the Blood Devil Sect.¡±The Martial Fighter said.¡±Annihiliate them.¡±He said coldly.They had no need for traitors.The Martial Fighters nodded.The Inner Clan had five Martial Fighters,if they asked for reinforcements getting a Martial Artist to help them wouldn¡¯t be hard. Jian Chen spoke finally,¡±Won¡¯t that raise chaos in the clan?What about the Sect?¡±He asked suspicious.¡±No need to worry,THEY will do it...The assassination¡­¡± They,the greatest assassination team of the Jian clan,all were Martial Artists,The Sword Gate Team.They had a 90% assassination chance.Even Martial Masters had to be careful of them,or they might die in their sleep! Even the Grand Elders were barely stronger than them!Okay that was not true.They,the Sword Gate Team were a level weaker.Jian Yun knew two of them.The silent and calm,Jian Zero.He had black hair and white eyes,he was blind or so everyone thought. He was at the pinnacle of the Martial Fighter Realm.He was around thirty to forty years old.he was a friend of his father and also the vice captain of the Sword Gate Assassination Team.The other person he knew was Jian Wan.He was a cheerful and nice guy.He had brown light hair which were short and blue eyes. He was at the peak of the Martial Fighter Realm and almost at the pinnacle.But compared to the Vice Captain,Jian Zero he was lacking quite a lot.Jian Yun was cold at this sight. Jian Chen was stunned.The Sword Gate Assassination Team couldn¡¯t be commanded by anybody.Even the Patriarch had almost no power over them.Only the Ancestor could command them! Ancestor was called the oldest person of the clan,and also the strongest.He was a Martial Master,a very powerful one! Even the patriarch was weaker than him,but the Ancestor had several times the control over the clan!He was the nineteenth patriarch!The only patriarch who had lived more than five hundred years! This novel is published on a different platform. Support the original author by finding the official source. Usually Martial Refiners live 150,Ki Refiners,200,Fighter 300,Artists 450 and Masters 550 years before dying.To find a person older than five hundred years...How rare was it?! *** In a huge evil looking castle.¡±WHAT?!¡±A huge and furious voice rang out.It was the Devil Patriarch!He had long black hair and red eyes.The Devils of the Blood Devil Sect weren¡¯t actual devils,but their personality was of a devil! He had long nails,over one meter.They were so sharp that even bones would be easily cut by them.Before him was a small and inferior devil,he was trembling in fear.¡±Y-y-ee-s.It seems the Jian Clan got sound of our plan and they sent the Young Master Yun and Prince Chen to attack!¡±He said in the end loudly. The Devil Patriarch was of the peak of the Martial Artist realm.He was a step away from the pinnacle.Suddenly a terrifying aura engulfed the whole castle!¡±You...YOU!YOU DARE TO HARM MY SON?!¡±A terrifying voice rang out,destroying and crushing windows. ¡°Son?!¡±The Devil Patriarch was dumbfounded!Whose son was he talking about?!Not wasting a second he shouted,¡±You can¡¯t touch me!My father,a Martial Master will kill you if you do!¡±His words sound arrogant,but the next moment he was crushed to dust! ¡°I will annihliiate the damn Blood Devil Sect!¡±Roared the voice. *** The next day,the whole Blood Devil Sect was found in ruins,with the Ancestor and the Patriarch dead,crushed to dust,barely leaving any corpse behind to recognize.And the one who did this all,was Jian Lang!Jian Yun¡¯s father! Yet almost nobody knew that.Only a few top class people knew it.For Example Jian Yun¡¯s mother and the Ancestor.Nobody else knew it. Jian Lang was next seen with his youngest son,Jian Rui,who was now seven.He had almost recognized how to use a first grade Technique,Fierce Palm.Although it wasn¡¯t enough to kill an wild animal,it was certainly more than enough to defeat an average person who attacked him. Jian Yun was currently cultivating.He had already reached the late level of the sixth layer and was trying to reach the advanced level.Unfortunately somehow,he couldn¡¯t. *** One month later.jian Yun had finally reached the advanced level.It took a while,but it was worth.His power was doubled.He could easily defeat fifth layer cultivators with a slap.He could kill sixth layer cultivators with thirty slaps and seventh layer cultivators with a hundred slaps! He was at the advanced level of the sixth layer,it was natural for him to be stronger than sixth layer cultivators.But yet he couldn¡¯t help being surprised,even he a primordial Beast had never managed to spent so much time in a bottleneck,and even if he did,it was usually in extremely difficult bottlenecks which few pass through. He grinned happily.He was more powerful,that made him more happy,very more happy.The more strong he was,the closer was he to his goal,surpassing his rival,The Human Emperor.¡± I swear...I will battle him again,and WIN.¡±He muttered in his mind.His eyes shining heavier than the sun and it¡¯s light. Chapter [8] - [Two Years Later][Finally!The Yearly Fishin- I mean Fighting Tournament Hi Guys! I still have problems with my finger,but it feels better and better! Though I can''t clench it or it hurts.Overall I have no problems which may threaten my writing life. This chapter is short and the next two three chapters are probably boring. also,please comment.When I am alone,I can''t write,I have no support.(Imagine a NEET thrown out) Chapter 8 - Bad ASSS Chapter 8 - Two nice years had passed,Jian Yun now was twelve.He was at the seventh layer,the pinnacle of it.Jian Chen was at the sixth layer while Jian Wei at the fifth.There was another genius,Jian Yuan,at the fourth layer. Jian Yun was purposely stopping breaking through,to have a better foundation.Although he already had a very good one,he couldn¡¯t get lazy because of it.But he was sure seventh layer cultivators were ants to him,eighth layer cultivators troublesome and ninth layer cultivators a worthy challenge. He learned two techniques in the two years:Dragon Fist and Intent. Dragon Fist is simply the aura of a dragon in one¡¯s fist.Intent was something which can be clad in everything:Sword,Saber,Bow,Spear and others. Each can raise the power of one¡¯s attack a lot,making the attack terrifying.Usually only Martial Ki Refiners of the pinnacle manage to use it,geniuses at the peak and prodigies at the intermediate layers. ¡°Brother Yun!¡±He heard two voices,Jian Chen and Jian Wei.They both were his closest friends in the clan.Jian Rui was his only brother,who now was nine and had started cultivating.He already was at the second layer of the Martial Refiner Realm.Unfortunately he was unexperienced,so Jian Yun could beat him in a flash. ¡°Brother Chen,Sister Wei.¡±He said kindly.¡±What brings you here?¡±He asked them.¡±We came to tell you that the Jian Clan¡¯s Yearly Tournament is starting!¡±They both shouted.¡±I already know that.¡±Jian Yun said covering his ears for a second.¡±Sorry,we were too excited..¡±They apologized. Actually any person who knew Jian Yun for one year would be excited.After all he was mysterious.Even his father was suspicious of him.¡¯I can¡¯t blame them¡­¡±He thought and sighed.¡±When?¡±He asked,¡±Two days later!¡±They replied loudly. ¡°Two days¡­¡±Jian Yun became serious.He was sure he could win,but he wasn¡¯t sure if he had to use less than one hundred percent of his powers.Who knows,maybe there is an expert hiding under their noses? ¡°Then bye my friends...I need to train.¡±He said and walked away.¡±I am sure I can raise my power a bit before the tournament.¡±His eyes flashed courage and willpower.He had to win,not for himself,not for his father,not for his mother and certainly not for his clan.BUT FOR FIGHTING HIS RIVAL¡­ *** ( I am sure I never ever made his mother talk so I wanted to do it now.) Feng Hua was born in the big Feng Clan.Even stronger than the Jian clan by a hundred times.She fell in love with Jian Lang,a brave person.If he were to say if she immediately loved him,she would say yes immediately. Then two years after being married,she had her first child.Jian Yun.Unfortunately she rarely meet him,he trained and trained.It was as if he didn¡¯t recognize her as his mother,but she knew he did,he did recognize her as his mother. If you encounter this story on Amazon, note that it''s taken without permission from the author. Report it. She,like her husband was a Martial Master.The Jian Clan had a total of three Martial Masters,that was the reason it¡¯s enemies didn¡¯t dare to attack it openly.Not to mention,none were weak.She also had the backing of the Feng Clan. Then her second son was born.He was strong.Yet he was lacking compared to Jian Yun.She could only sigh.They both were her son¡¯s after all.What could she do,love one and hate another?Ignore him? Jian Lang,her husband supported both of them,yet he loved his youngest son more than the eldest.If one could say why,it was because the youngest acted childish,while the oldest was like a wise man. In one way,he was rejected.But she didn¡¯t know what to do.Her first son was scary.Scarier than her grandfather.Yet,she couldn¡¯t do the same thing as she did to her grandfather. She couldn¡¯t give him¡­ Love. *** Jian Yun was not feeling good.Having a direct meeting with his mother wasn¡¯t a very good feeling.He never had parents.Beasts usually have either loving parents or ruthless parents.While some have none.While he...He belonged to the latter two. He was a beast...A Beast among beasts.He could easily rival an army of a billion humans...Yet what he wanted was a safe place...A Safe place for his beasts...But now it was over. (Lol over) *** He went to the 84 Training Ground.It was a spacy training place with trees and special barriers and formations.Only Martial Fighters of the pinnacle could be able to destroy it. He bent his body and moved a leg forward.¡±Dragon¡­¡±He muttered as a strange aura surrounded his fist.¡±FIST!¡±He roared as he thrust his fist forward.Suddenly a dragon the thickness of his fist appeared.It roared and shot towards the trees,enveloping them all. The next moment,fifty trees were burned to nothingness.If you were to compare it to Martial Ki Refiners,even that was not able to wound them.But as for Complete Martial Refiners?It may be able to wound them.But Jian Yun was only at the seventh layer! ¡°Then...Intent.¡±Jian Yun muttered as he unsheathed a sword.It was the Martial Fighter Level Sword. ¡°Stage One-Sharp.¡±He shouted as the sword was cloated in an invisible power which strengthened it.He swung it unleashing an extremely terrifying wave of qi!The wave of qi flew towards the strong trees cutting them easily! In the end...seventy trees were cut.But that wasn¡¯t his limit.He,could cut eighty trees if he wanted.But that was only the absolute limit of his current self. Jian Yun had trained the two martial techniques since one year and six months.In the beginning it certainly was hard,but slowly he got used to it. The slowly...Two Days passed¡­ (Short Chapter) Chapter [10] - [Start] Chapter 9 - [Start] The Arena. It was a huge building with no roof but huge space.There were ten rows of seats,with each having over a hundred seats,for a total of one thousand in each part.In total there were five to six thousand people present. The rest had to watch it from a special talisman which would create the images of the fight.It wasn¡¯t hard if a Martial Fighter used his Qi to use it.The main prodigies were:Jian Chen,Jian Wei,Jian Yun,Jian Chu and Jian Yuan.The main prodigy of the five was Jian Yun. His cultivating level was of the seventh layer.Jian Chu was of the fifth,Jian Yuan of the fifth,Jian Wei of the pinnacle fifth layer and Jian Chen of the sixth layer,pinnacle.There were four formations and barriers set in each corner of the Arena,each of the formations could easily block a Martial Artist¡¯s full attack. Jian Lang,Jian Rui and Feng Hua,his parents and brother would watch him fight.It¡¯s not like he wanted them too.¡±Did the Sword Gate Assassination Team get gathered?¡±Jian Feng muttered.¡±Yes,all fifteen of them are here.¡± The Sword Gate Assassination team has a total of fifteen members.The Captain,Vice Captain,Leaders and soldiers.There were two leaders and one captain and vice captain for a total of eleven members. (Don¡¯t bother,only a few will have their appareances.) Jian Feng nodded,¡±Good,here.¡±He tossed a small sack.Inside there were twenty Spirit Stones.The spy was happy.Usually only Inner Members get twenty spirit stones.But although for him it wasn¡¯t a lot,it was an easy job. Jian Yun was already ready.He wore a black robe with a golden dragon sewed in it and with long sleeves.His white hair were fixed.His red eyes were now partly crimson.Even the most ¡®hardcore¡¯ girls were blushing when they saw him. Jian Wei next to him,was wearing a beautiful red dress and blue gloves.The gloves were a Martial Fighter Level Weapon.They could melt through metals easily.Jian Chen was wearing a blue robe.They,together with a hundred others entered the stage. After the audience cheered loudly,a person shouted,announcing.¡±Ladies and Gentlemens!Today we have gathered to watch the great Yearly Tournament of The Jian Clan,OUR CLAN!¡±He took a huge breath before continuing. ¡°There are a hundred people present here.From them,only sixty eight will be able to advance. Rules. Killing is not allowed unless both approve. The one with more damage loses. Knocking your opponents is allowed.Stolen content warning: this content belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences. And others¡­¡±He yawned.¡±START!¡±He Shouted with qi Infused in his own voice Jian Yun didn¡¯t waste a moment before unleashing his power,creating a big barrier,enveloping him,Jian Wei and Jian Chen.There was no need to fight,using strength and Qi for nothing worth.But the audience were disappointed heavily.They thought they could finally see Jian Yun in action. Jian Yuan was silent.He waved his hand and said,¡±Go and attack him.¡±His lackeys,ten third layer cultivators shot towards Jian Yun.¡±Union Attack-Five Elemental Crash!¡±They roared as five colours enveloped them.The attack could easily defeat fourth layer cultivators.Even fifth layer cultivators may have problems with it. Jian Yun sighed.He closed his eyes and unleashed a terrifying pressure,engulfing everybody!The ten lackeys,however,didn¡¯t retreat or stop.¡±Blood Slaves¡­?¡±He muttered. Blood Slaves is a name for slaves who can¡¯t disobey the master no matter the danger.The way to make Blood Slaves is rare,but Jian Yuan is the son of one of the several Punishment Elders.It isn¡¯t strange that he has a few Blood Slaves. ¡°Dragon Fist¡­¡±He muttered as he thrust his fist forward,unleashing a terrifying and immense dragon aura.The Dragon image shot towards the ten Blood Slaves passing through them like tofu.The next moment all of them were on the ground,together with twelve more. ¡°Holly Shit!Did you guys see that!¡± ¡°That was the seventh tier technique-Dragon Fist!¡± ¡°Isn¡¯t that one of the insanely rare techniques the Jian Clan has!There are only three seventh tier techniques!¡± ¡°But Dragon Fist is the hardest to learn or use!¡± The audience was thrown in chaos!Dragon Fist was an extremely rare technique.The ones who used it can be counted in one¡¯s two hands.The strongest was the first patriarch,Jian Leng.He could use the first to the fifth stage.He only couldn¡¯t use the sixth and seventh stages. ¡°That was the second Stage-Materialization.¡±One of the eldest people of the clan said touching his beard. Jian Yun didn¡¯t bother hearing them.The number of participants had fallen from a hundred to seventy.Soon the number would fall to 68 then to 32 then to 16 then to eight,four,two and finally the winner,one. ¡°Jian Yuan,stop this at once...Or I might not guarantee that your limbs will be there in the next hour.¡±Jian Yun threatened with his sweet voice.Jian Yuan shivered but sneered,¡±In your dreams.¡±His words were full with arrogance.Did he think Jian Yun wouldn¡¯t dare to attack him? Amused,Jian Yun sent a thrust of his fist towards Jian Yuan,who was at the fifth layer.Suddenly a dragon materialized.It was extremely big.Bigger than Jian Yun¡¯s body by at least twenty times.Not only that,it was also twenty times stronger! The dragon shone and the next moment,Jian Yuan was coughing violently.A huge wound appeared in his stomach.He slowly fell on the ground unconscious.the Punishment Elder,Jian Yian was so angry his face turned red. But when he thought that Jian Yun was the young master,it made him calmer.For him it was natural.But still,to defeat his son like that.That wasn¡¯t normal at all! Jian Chu looked at Jian Yun.He had long black hair and blue eyes.He wore a black robe with tight sleeves.He was calm and cold.He was twelve,but he was certainly stronger than Jian Yuan by a few times. ¡°Interesting.¡±He muttered slowly.Jian Chu was born of a concubine of a Bastard Elder,but his talent was great.He was thirteen.The limit age was fourteen,but few entered it at the age of fourteen or thirteen. His mind was calm.He killed his own father at the age of nine,using poison and sneak attacks.He wasn¡¯t sent to jail because of the crimes his own dead father did. Yet he did nothing.He raised a palm and thrust it towards a participant.That person was sent flying several tens of meters.The person was...a fourth layer cultivator! He was sent to defeat in one attack!And it wasn¡¯t fused with Qi!That was an ordinary attack that even kids could do.It had to be understanded that to skip layers,or at least defeat people with simply a raw attack wasn¡¯t easy. Jian Yun grinned in amusement.¡±He will be a worthy opponent for a bit.¡±He took a huge breath and shouted loudly.¡±Jian Chu...I will be waiting for you!¡±His words rose a huge shock in the audience!They all thought Jian Yuan was stronger than him,but he choose Jian Chu? Jian Lang was silent all the time.He was a bit proud,but he did nothing and never helped his son,the only time he did was the annhiliation of the Blood Devil Sex-sect. Jian Wei had grown to be gorgeous.Her entire figure had matured slightly(And some ething had grown too.) Jian Yun looked at the participants.It was over.Only sixty four were still conscious.¡±And the match is over!¡±The announcer shouted loudly(Not sure but I may have done a mistake here. To lazy to watch it Just think of the number as 64 and not 68) Jian Lang¡¯s face was calm with a hint of happiness.Jian Feng was smiling and so was Jian Wei and Jian Chen. Chapter 11 - Uh... Start? Chapter 10 - [First Battle] Jian Yun looked at Jian Wei and his sworn brother,Jian Chen.He saw that although he was happy,he had the look in his eyes that he had wanted to fight,but he suppresed that look when he looked at Jian Yun,he didn¡¯t want to make him worry too much. ¡°Well let¡¯s go.¡±He muttered slowly and waved his black dragon robe as he left the arena together with the two others,which made a great trio. ¡°As I expected!Young Master Yun is truly the strongest!¡± ¡°That is true but,Prince Chen had no chance to show his power,and neither did Lady Wei!¡± ¡°Hmph,do you think these two can compare to him?!¡± ¡°I don¡¯t think that,I just am saying they are powerful too.¡± The audience exploded in a conversation,few actually left it,forgetting that the second stage wouldn¡¯t happen today,but tomorrow.Giving the participants time to rest and gain confidence in fighting. ¡°Who do you think Young Master Yun will fight?¡± ¡°I think IT will be Jian Yu,he is a second layer,peak of it.He wasn¡¯t weak,as most cultivators were either second layer or third early layer,meaning none were very strong.¡± ¡°I think it will be Jian Chun,he is a weak person,but powerful in strategy¡­¡± The audience exploded even more,leaving no time for Jian Lang to intervene and let them to leave.He ordered four Martial Ki Refiners to make them leave,and they slowly left in defeat.He was feeling complicated,happy yet angry. ¡°Why do I feel like that....He is my son.¡±He sighed and vanished in a wave of dust.Little did they know that a small eye was watching from a distance,a powerhouse,capable of exterminating the Jian Clan,like it was a bug. ¡°I found a nice talent...I The Patriarch of the Li Clan will finally be capable of rebuilding the Three Ray Formations!Then I will be finally be able to enter the Great Martial Lord Realm!¡±Se grinned,¡±let¡¯s just control the clan...The Nine Marks of Hell Technique...DON¡¯T TEACH HIM THAT!¡±She roared as Jian Feng felt an invisible pressure as something disappeared from her mind. ¡°Eh?¡±He thought.¡¯Why are my memories disappearing...NO!...NOOO!¡¯But it was too late,his memories had already disappeared.¡±It can¡¯t be...A Great Master...Grandmaster¡­¡±He muttered slowly before bitterly smiling. *** Grandmaster.The Realm surpassing the Master Realm.Capable of shattering mountains like soft bread.They were the strongest,and the tyrant rulers of the 1 billion territory,with an even stronger person completely dominating. Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon. The Li Clan was a declining Grand Master Clan.They were weak,with barely a few Masters,three.But the Patriarch of the Li Clan was a madman,he would use everything simply to become a bit stronger,it was crazy. Grandmasters was a special Qi called,¡±TrueQi¡± It was capable of destroying a small mountain if a certain amount was safely used.It was too terrifying to be true,but it was true.But unfortunately their amount of True Qi was small,and only a 1 meter size amount of it could be used. Jian Yun had learned about this Realm about one day ago,when he sensed the soul of the eye.His soul was dozens of times stronger than of any expert in 10 billion kilometers,it was impossible to find a person stronger than him in that territory. ¡®A Grandmaster..That is equivalent to my world¡¯ Warlords.¡¯He thought deep in his little heart...After all he was merely twelve¡­ *** The Eye smiled as she disappeared.She reappeared in a huge palace,in her physical appearance.She was wearing a gorgeous white dress.Her eyes were blue with a visible white colour,and her hair was purple and long. Her entire figure was very tempting to any man.¡±Li Fan!¡±She roared as a man appeared before him,it was a Martial Master,Li Fan.He was a middle aged man with a white beard and brown eyes and hair. ¡°Yes,matriarch.¡±Few knew that actually the Li Clan had no patriarch,but actually had a matriarch!Li Fan was one of the few.¡±Take ten Martial Artists and attacked the Jian Clan,250 million kilometers away from here.¡±She muttered as Li Fan nodded,¡±As you wish,matriarch.¡±And disappeared in a gust of wind,leaving the matriarch alone. ¡°Soon...We will be reunited my beloved husband¡­¡±She muttered in a happy voice,different from her usual voice,which would stun anybody from the Li Clan,especially the Martial Masters of the clan. Her name was...Li Xing! Jian Yun was having a bad day.He still couldn¡¯t enter the ninth layer(He was at pinnacle eight layer,there is a two weeks time skip)Thanks to a few problems,the eliminations were pushed to two weeks later,meaning today. He took out something from his leather bag,a herb.It was a herb called,¡±Rainbow Flower.¡±The flower had every colour of the rainbow in each petal,creating a beautiful harmony.He waved hish hand and the flower dispersed into red liquid which was sucked inside his mouth. His cultivation skyrocket.His foundation was strengthened.Rainbow Flower¡¯s were extremely rare!Only one Martial Artist had one!Martial Masters owned quite a few,but they didn¡¯t give them easily either! His father had given him to him in a very good cost,entering the Martial Ki Refiner before fourteen.That may be seen as an easy goal,but an average cultivator needs nine to twelve months of cultivating before reaching the point of being able to try to enter that realm. ¡°Well at least he knows I have a chance,but he is becoming even more ruthless towards me as the days pass¡­¡±Jian Yun sighed but still cultivated The red liquid slowly passed through his Cultivation Veins and straight to his Dantian!Then it shone and his cultivation entered the ninth layer!That was only possible because of his strengthened foundation,otherwise it would¡¯ve taken two months to digest the red liquid! ¡°I wonder how surprised would they be when they learn that I entered the ninth layer¡­¡±He grinned as he thought.¡¯Well I can¡¯t let childish thoughts enter my mind anymore¡­¡¯He thought yet again. He looked at his resources,there was still a lot left.He stood up to his feet and looked at the far away sky.He slowly moved towards the Arena,where the matches would be hold.Around 50.000 places had been already reserved,only 25.000 were left. Before the gates of the Arena two gorgeous women were guarding.Unlike the previous ugly looking men,the two women were very beautiful,and their cultivation surpassed that of the Martial Fighter Realm,thus Complete Martial Fighter Realm.They wore revealing clothes,which clearly revealed their slender curves.It was fortunate that no idiot would dare to attack the two twins. They seemed to be about twenty to twenty one.Jian Yun walked forward and said,¡±I am Young Master Yun,can you please let me go through?¡±He said in respect.The two women nodded and let him pass. The surrounding cultivators and mortals exploded in thoughts.¡±These two women!Even the patriarch has a hard time talking to them,but he talked to them so casually?¡± ¡°As expected!His talent is heaven-defying!Even the patriarch can¡¯t compare to him!¡± ¡°That is true,but why isn¡¯t he with his family?¡± ¡°Do they have a problem with each other?It can¡¯t be.¡± The rumors moved from a place to another,they simply couldn¡¯t be extinguished by simple words.That was the mysterious strength of the people that even the strongest clans feared.It was simply way too terrifying. Jian Yun ignored them and slowly entered the arena,which was covered in cheers and roars.He used Qi to slightly fly,reaching the second row of the bleachers.There was Jian Chen and Jian Wei waiting for him. ¡°What were you doing?¡±Jian Chen asked smiling,¡±Cultivating.¡±He replied,¡±Is that so?Brother you should rest.¡±Jian Wei sighed.¡±Sorry,sorry.Cultivating is all I know after all.¡±Jian Yun smiled and laughed happily. He was a different person with them.He was the cheerful Jian Yun. Chapter [12] -The Tournament... Chapter 11 Jian Yun sneered as he looked at the first match.It was two thirteen years old youths fighting against each other.But their cultivations were only of the second layer.Their strikes were barely a level higher than the first layer,and even a casual strike wasn¡¯t able to destroy a rock. ¡°Hmph,so weak.¡±He sneered as Jian Chen sighed,¡±That is only because you are way to strong,brother Yun.¡±Jian Wei said the same thing.¡±I know that,but their strikes are so weak!There is no power in them!¡± Then the match was close to an ending.One roared,¡±Hard PALM!¡±His palm suddenly was covered in rocks as he thrust it forward,implanting it into the other¡¯s chest,making him fly away and crash into a corner. ¡°Jian Yan Wins!¡±The elder shouted.He waved his hand and two cultivator of the fifth layer entered and took the wounded one away.¡±Second Match,Jian Yun against Jian Yin!¡± ¡°It¡¯s my turn¡±Jian Yun smiled.He jumped into the arena from the first row,and landed steadily.¡±START!¡±The elder shouted.Jian Yin was a beautiful girl,which had slightly developed.¡±Surrender now,I can¡¯t assure you of your safeness.¡±He warned her who disagreed and attacked. Her attack was coated in qi,but it was nothing to Jian Yun who evaded easily.Jian Yun then smiled and coated his palm in qi,it was the same attack!He implanted his palm into her chest,making her fly away dozens of meters away,almost crashing. ¡°He used the same attack!¡± A person from the bleachers shouted.He had used the same yet not the same attack,and it was several times stronger than the former!¡±Your attacks have little power,your palm is not suitable for hard Qi attacks,use soft Qi. Your body needs physical training,you simply don¡¯t have the power to use a lot of Qi,you should either train or give up.¡±Jian Yun said in a wise tone,making Jian Yin grit her teeth and shouted,¡±Shut up!What the hell do you know about me?!¡± Her eyes turned red,¡±Devil Transformation!¡±She roared.An evil red energy engulfed her body.Devil Transformation was a fourth tier technique.It was very powerful and boosted one¡¯s power by a level. ¡°Devil Claw!¡±She roared as she shaped her hand into a claw.She thrust it forward,creating a red claw which flew towards Jian Yun who muttered,¡±Ki Cloud Finger!¡±His finger was covered in cloudy mist¡¯s and Ki which he thrust forward,and a wave of ki shot,destroying the red claw completely. ¡°Flying Wind Palm!¡±Jian Yun shouted as he unleashed a flying wind palm from¡±his hand,thrusting it forward.Jian Yin was sent flying like crazy.The audience swallowed their saliva,¡±Jian Yun wins!¡±The elder shouted. ¡°He used such a weak technique to win?¡±The audience was thrown into disarray.¡±It can¡¯t be that this wasn¡¯t his true power?¡±That was true,towards a simple pinnacle second layer cultivator,Jian Yun just had to use 1% of his actual power to win.The author''s narrative has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon. He smiled towards the audience and waved his hand before slowly reaching the wall.He coated his legs in Qi before slowly climbing the wall,like it was a casual walk.That was the sixth stage¡¯s special ability! The audience weren¡¯t much surprised.They already knew Jian Yun had surpassed the seventh layer already.If he couldn¡¯t even do that,it would disappoint them a lot.He walked to his seat at the bleachers,right next to Jian Chen and Jian Wei. ¡°Third Match Jian Chen against Jian Su¡±The elder shouted,then the two said names entered the arena.Jian Su was a thin and long man,he was at least 1,90.And he was only thirteen.He could use techniques which need tallness. ¡°Even though you already are at the fifth layer,don¡¯t think you are stronger than me!¡±Jian Su sneered.He was at the third pinnacle layer.¡±Body Crash!¡±He shouted and released his body,with a gust of powerful wind he fell straight on Jian Chen who smiled,¡±Flame Wings!¡±And two wings made from flame appeared on his back,he flapped them and he flew away,evading the attack. ¡°Flame Bullets!¡±He shouted as he shaped his hand into a pistol,he waved it,and four bullets made from flames appeared and attacked Jian Su who tried dodging,but was too slow. But unfortunately the bullets didn¡¯t have enough power in them and only injured Jian Su a bit.¡±Qi Whip!¡±He shouted as he waved his hand,which was over 70cm and clad in Qi towards Jian Chen who gritted his teeth. ¡®As I expected there wasn¡¯t enough power in the attack.¡¯He thought in his heart and dodged the attack.¡¯What about this then!¡¯He thought in his heart and shouted,¡±Crimson Sparks!¡±He waved his hands and crimson sparks the size of one of his arms each,in total there were fifty,and they were flying randomly. Two had flew straight into Jian Su¡¯s body.He gritted his teeth but couldn¡¯t bear it anymore and gave a cry of pain.His entire stomach had a huge burning scar.He fell straight into the floor!He was unconscious! The pain had become so unbearable for him.It was impossible to be able to stay conscious with such a pain.¡±Jian Chen wins!¡±The elder smiled and shouted.¡±As expected!¡± ¡°Yes!He truly is the child of two Grand Elders!¡± ¡°Wasn¡¯t that a sixth tier technique?The Jian Clan only has six sixth tier techniques!¡±Even Grand Elders usually don¡¯t give sixth tier techniques to their sons early,only when they grow up do they do that. ¡°No idiot,that is a Half Sixth Tier Technique¡­¡±An experienced person sighed.Half techniques were more common than the true tier of a technique,the Jian Clan had twelve half sixth techniques.They also had four half seven tier techniques. Jian Chen smiled and returned to his seat,next to Jian Wei and Jian Yun who were cheering for him the entire battle.¡±Next,Jian Wei against Jian Di!¡±The elder shouted and the two said names entered. Jian Di was an average guy,with a cultivation of the third layer.It would be easy for Jian Wei to defeat him.She smiled and took out a flute.It was black and beautiful.She started playing it.The beautiful sound the flute made transformed into a huge monster of sound which seemingly could eat Jian Di in one go. Jian Di swallowed his saliva and roared,¡±Bronze Body!¡±And his body was covered in bronze,his skin brown.Yet the monster of sound easily swallowed him,leaving him with several wounds,and unconscious.¡±Jian Wei Wins!¡±The elder shouted. ¡°As always,her monsters are very powerful!¡± ¡°Her play is also beautiful!¡± Jian Wei smiled at the audience.They felt like a Goddess had descended,a part of their soul ascended.She slowly climbed the stairs and reached her place next to her two powerful friends.They didn¡¯t care at all about Jian Di¡¯s poor condition,like he was a bug,they had forgotten about him. Jian Wei trained Flute Arts,her play was also beautiful.She was suited for it.But she also practiced hand to hand combat,because if her Flute Arts were defeated,she would be left with only her hands. Naturally,she could use her hands in combat only if she had experience and trained with experts.¡±Well done,this is the first time I ever saw your skills,good job.¡±Jian Yun smiled at her and then solemnly looked at his family. They were happy,like he was never there.¡¯It¡¯s because of that eye¡¯s influence...But she just did me a favor¡­.¡¯He grinned and laughed in his mind.¡±How ignorant!How dare they look like nothing is happening!¡±Jian Chen gritted his teeth,he couldn¡¯t understand how Jian Yun endured such an humiliation. ¡°Hahaha,don¡¯t think much of that.¡±Jian Yun smiled and laughed.The boy and girl sighed,they couldn¡¯t tell what he thought all.Was he angry?Was he Calm?Was he raging but hiding his hate?Well they knew nothing. Then after 60 more matches,the third stage started.Only 32 had entered it,and it would soon become even shorter. ¡°Jian Yun against Jian Yian!¡±The elder shouted. Chapter 13 [Fast Pace] Chapter 13- Jian Yian.He was one of the geniuses of the clan.He was at the pinnacle of the third layer.He was arrogant thinking he was the best,but well,there were tens of people who were stronger than him. ¡°Young Master,although you are at the sixth layer,*smirk* I have taken something just to deal with you.¡±He smirked and slowly took out a sword,it was shining and covered in symbols.¡±A Martial Ki Refiner Level Weapon¡­¡±Jian Yun looked coldly at the sword. He smirked and shot towards Jian Yun smirking.¡±DIE!¡±He shouted and thrust the sword forward,unleashing a vortex of Qi.¡¯It seems weapons are allowed,huh?¡¯Jian Yun smiled,He bent his body and thrust his fist forward,¡±DRAGON FIST!¡±From his fist qi gathered to form a thick dragon with no wings. He smirked and the Dragon flew towards Jian Yian,like a predator.Jian Yian was left crying and wet his pants.¡±I-i-i-I surrender!¡±He shouted breathing heavily with terrified eyes,crying,as his eyes turned black. The elder nodded and shouted,¡±Jian Yun is the winner!¡±¡¯The audience roared and cheered.Jian Yun instead,was looking at the sky.¡±Oh shit¡­¡±He muttered and in an instant flew towards Jian Wei and Jian Chen,grabbed them both by a hand and disappeared. The audience had no time to register what happened before the whole arena exploded...The raiders were the Li Clan! Li Fan sneered.He was a pinnacle Martial Master,capable of destroying the Ji clan two times easily.He had already killed two of the four Martial Master,and soon would kill the other two,The Ancestor and Jian Lang. *** Jian Yun sighed in relief,¡±You are safe.¡± ¡°What happened?¡±Jian Chen asked,¡±Where are we?¡±He smiled,¡±We are in my Immortal Cave,250 kilometers away.¡± ¡°WHY DID YOU TAKE US AWAY?!I SAW THE ENEMIES!¡±Jian Wei shouted in rage.¡±Enemies?Then which realm?Refiner?Don¡¯t joke.THEY WERE ALL MARTIAL ARTISTS AND MASTERS!¡±Jian Yun roared. The two were silent.It was true.If he didn¡¯t do that,their chances of escaping would be beyond low.¡±BUT STILL!WE ARE PART OF THAT CLAN!WE COULD HELP THEM!¡±Jian Chen roared.¡±Fine.¡±Jian Yun sneered,¡±You can go back.¡± ¡°I helped you guys because I thought of you two as friends,but from now on...It seems It isn¡¯t possible to help you guys any longer.¡±He said coldly,¡±WE NO LONGER ARE FRIENDS OR SWORN BROTHERS!¡±Jian Chen roared in rage and fury. Jian Yun disappeared,but before he left a small tear left his eyes which was left unnoticed by Jian Chen but Jian Wei noticed it.¡±How dare he...HOW DARE HE?!¡±He roared. *** Enjoying this book? Seek out the original to ensure the author gets credit. Jian Chen was sad his eyes blank.¡¯Friends...They truly are worthless...Or is it me who is worthless¡­?¡¯He thought as rain fell on him.¡±Are the skies crying for me?¡±He smiled bitterly.¡¯If only I had chosen better.¡¯He took out a wooden ring. Memories flashed in his mind.¡¯This is the ring we gave each other as proof that we three will be friends forever.¡¯He smiled and thought,¡±But now it¡¯s worthless!¡±He roared and almost threw the ring,but couldn¡¯t. ¡°Then all I can do is...Keep it.¡±He sighed and wore the ring.¡±Ties of the past...They aren¡¯t easy to get rid of¡­¡±He smiled.¡±But I will walk forward.Regardless of what happens¡­¡±He said with blank eyes,slowly regaining their red colour. ¡°Are you lost,boy?¡±He heard a gentle voice,he looked behind and saw a middle aged man.¡±Where am I?¡±He had no idea where he was,he had used a Random Teleporting Seal,he had found somewhere to teleport. ¡°You are 555 kilometers away from the Cooper Rank Force,The Blue Vortex Palace.¡±The middle aged man said,his brown hair covering one of his blue eyes. The ranks of sects and others went like this:Stone,Wood,Coal,Cooper,Silver,Iron,Black Iron and Finally Gold.Cooper Rank sects had Martial Grandmasters,and were terrifying.¡±Blue Vortex PalacE?¡±Jian Chen smiled.The Blue Vortex Palace was very powerful,they were in top 3 strongest cooper rank force¡¯s.The disciples were all either complete Martial Refiners or Martial Ki Refiners. ¡°Can you help me,please?¡±He muttered weakly,the middle aged man helped him stand.¡±I sensed a powerful soul,thus came here.¡±He said smiling,¡±Oh by the way my name is Ji Tian,an Elder of the Blue Vortex Palace.¡±Ji Tian smiled. ¡°Young Boy,do you want to become my disciple?¡±He smiled,¡±My name is Jian Yun,and yes.¡±Jian Yun said and bowed thrice.He could sense that Ji Tian was a nice man,and was a Martial Master.That would only benefit him. For him having more than one master wasn¡¯t anything big.¡±You are twelve?Ninth layer Martial Refiner...Not bad not bad...Aye!Your Cultivation Talent Grade is XxX!Meaning beyond eleven!¡±Ji Tian looked at Jian Yun with a blank expression. He could see everything inside or outside with with his Great Master Realm.¡±It seems you are only a step away from the tenth layer¡­¡±He grinned,¡±Even in the Palace there is none like that!¡±He was madly dancing in joy,he had found...a talent! ¡°Come here,to grandpa!¡±He said and touched Jian Yun¡¯s shoulder¡¯s before disappearing.This was an eighth layer technique,¡±Teleport¡± Capable of teleporting a person to a place he has seen before.Their view was replaced with a huge huge palace,over two kilometers itself.If it weren¡¯t for his spacious soul he would¡¯ve never seen all the palace.It¡¯s land went across several hundred kilometers,and that was only this palace! ¡°This is the main palace,Blue Vortex!¡±Ji Tian grinned,proudly.¡±Here even Martial Ki Refiners are average at most,while Martial Fighters a bit higher,with Martial Artists being core members.Without us,the pillars,Martial Master,the whole Palace would be ruined in a flash.¡± Jian Yu nodded.While a Martial Grandmaster was the core,without the pillars a building would quickly fall,as a single person can¡¯t do everything.¡±At least,I can stay here for a few years.¡±Jian Yun thought in his heart,¡±Then a strong sect wouldn¡¯t be bad.¡± ¡°Let¡¯s go then.¡±Ji Tian waved his long sleeves and suddenly four thousand disciples appeared.¡±WE GREET LORD TIAN!¡±They all shouted.They sounded like a small army capable of ruining cities.¡±Amazing¡­¡±Jian Yun¡¯s face was calm but deep inside he was amazed. ¡°Come.¡±Ji Tian grinned and grabbed his sleeves and walked towards the gate¡¯s.They were floating in the air,like Gods.¡±That statue there is Lord Ji,my great grandfather.He was the first patriarch to enter the Grandmaster realm.¡±He smiled as he pointed at a statue. The statue showed a person with black short hair and a grand armour,around two meters.A shining sword in his waist.He had a grand aura around him,which made every person which went through that place,to bow in respect to him. Even he bowed.He had never seen such a grand place,because he usually lived in a ugly cave.He never had lived in a gorgeous palace or place,so this was a new experience for him.¡±How beautiful!¡±He exclaimed smiling. ¡°That is right.It was created by Lord Ji for the ancestor of this Palace,King Meng¡±Ji Tian said in happiness,he always felt the lively atmosphere here.And he just couldn¡¯t have enough of it. ¡°That is right,there should be a special Qi doing this.¡±Jian Yun said,¡±That is true,it¡¯s called,Happy Qi!A type of Qi capable of making people happy!¡±Ji Tian smirked in arrogance,¡±Even in the Three Top Copper Forces,Blue Vortex is ranked second!It was first around eleven times!¡±Jian Yun was curious. ¡°There is a Ranking Tournament each one hundred years,and our Palace has been existing for at least twenty thousand years!It is the oldest Copper Force!¡±Ji Tian smirked yet again,he was very proud,it could be seen. ¡°Unfortunately the damned Red Ice Pavilion cheated and took the first place, around ninety years ago.¡±Ji Tian sneered in disdain,¡±I was only a child back then.¡±He added,¡±So you are an old man then?¡±Jian Yun regretted what he said.¡±Yep.¡±Ji Tian said with a dark face.¡±I am sorry.¡±He replied sorry for what he said it was a bad memory for him. ¡°Anyway,let¡¯s go.¡±He said and waved his hand,they reached a certain room,which they entered. Chapter 14 [Army] Chapter 14 The room looked small from the outside,but inside it was gorgeous.¡±This is my room,I cultivate and sleep here.¡±Ji Tian grinned.¡±Why are you telling all of this to me?¡±Jian Yun was curious.¡±Because I can sense that you are not an evil guy,though also not a good one.¡±He smiled. That was true,he wasn¡¯t a good person,but neither was he bad.He wouldn¡¯t simply betray one just for his profit.Because if he was like that,Jian Chen and Jian Wei would¡¯ve long been dead.But now he had grown out of it. Ji Tian waved his hand and a vortex appeared,¡±This vortex will sent you to your Immortal Cave,where you will cultivate.¡±Jian Yun nodded,¡±Here are a few techniques,all sixth and seventh tier.¡±He handed him three techniques,two sixth tier one seventh tier,in the form of a scroll,¡±You will return them six months later.¡±Ji Tian said. Jian Yun nodded,¡±Then go.¡±Ji Tian said and Jian Yun entered the vortex,like he was sucked inside,but he was calm,he knew Ji Tian wouldn¡¯t do something bad to him,especially now,as he was his disciple,but before he left,Ji Tian threw a token in his hand,¡±With this nobody will dare to disobey you.¡±He said. Jian Yun smiled,¡±Thanks Master Ji¡±He said before the vortex fully sucked him. It was dark.He felt cold,yet his heart was hot.He felt happy,he got a new friend,who repaired his wounds,even though it wasn¡¯t an actual friend,it was enough for him. Then light appeared,and he disappeared.He saw a gray cave,with a core,which looked like a Big Spirit Stone,blue and big. In the middle there was a round hole,a bit deeper,which Jian Yun sat on.The Spirit Stone¡¯s power entered his body through the Hole. He looked at the first scroll,It wrote [Vortex Of Hell] ¡°It unleashes vortexes,which summon beings of hell.There are ten levels.The first to the third can be used in the Martial Ki Refiner Realm,fourth and fifth in the Martial Fighter Realm,sixth in the Martial Artists Realm,seventh and eighth in the Martial Master Realm and ninth and tenth in the Martial Grandmaster Realm. To use it,you need to understand how a Vortex is made,and connect it to hell.¡±It wrote.¡¯Connect it to hell,it sounds easy but It certainly is a hundred times harder than a mortal jumping five meters on the air.¡¯Jian Yun was stunned,this technique was very powerful. ¡°Well let¡¯s try it.VORTEX!¡±He roared and tried to imagine a Vortex in his mind,he felt a vague feeling,it failed.It was pathetic,he was unable to even make a quarter Vortex,it really was pathetic.¡±How about I start with whirpool?¡±He thought. Whirpool and Vortex were different in terms of power,but in terms of form they weren¡¯t actually way too far,at least that was what Jian Yun thought.First time,failed.He failed ten times before finally making a Whirpool,now he got the basics down.

The Martial Ki Refining Realm is like a half of the Martial Refinery Realm,and then came the Martial Fighter Realm,where one was a terrifying warrior,capable of shattering a huge rock easily! ¡°Currently I can barely destroy over one hundred trees,which don¡¯t have the same hardness as a rock,their density is different!A rock is filled with Qi easily,while Wood isn¡¯t!¡±Jian Yun thought in his heart. He took a huge breath,¡±START!¡± **** After three month of secluded cultivation,Jian Yun had finally entered the complete Martial Refiner Realm,and if one thought it was natural,they were mistaken.Three months was way too little,even geniuses need at least five to nine months to do that,actually nobody had ever done it,the record was five months and twenty five days. ¡°My progress in the Vortex Of Hell,technique has been very little lately,soon I will need to leave seclusion.¡±Jian Yun said to himself.He had progressed to the point of being able to reach forty six meters,and almost capable of summoning a Skeleton. But it seems he didn¡¯t have much talent in summoning Hell creatures.¡±Also,the limit of my cultivation seclusion Master Ji gave to me was six months,but well,I don¡¯t want to waste three more months,it is so booring!¡±He sighed,¡±Though I can and was used to it earlier,when I was a beast.¡±He added,¡±But now I am a human!¡±He said. ¡°JIAN YUN!COME HERE RIGHT NOW!¡±He heard a shout in his mind,¡±Master Ji!¡±He shouted,and entered a vortex,which was headed towards his master¡¯s room,he reappeared right inside it,his master hadn¡¯t changed a lot. ¡°You will be joining the Fourth Army in a war against the Purple Flame Sect!¡±He said,¡±The fourth army?...¡±Jian Yun raised an eyebrow.¡±My bad,I suppose you don¡¯t know.Our Blue Vortex Palace in total has four hundred thousand disciples! Then there are the armies!They are natural killers!All are at least Martial Ki Refiners!They number to ten million! They are divided into ten armies,the fourth is the weakest,being the only army with Martial Refiners and only five hundred thousand Martial Ki Refiners,and around only two thousand Martial Fighters and five hundred Martial Artists,and only one Martial Master!¡± Jian Yun was shocked!How could such powerful armies exist!¡±Purple Flame Sect?¡±He asked,¡±They are a mid tier force of the cooper rank,the fourth army is enough to exterminate them a thousand times easily!¡±Ji Tian said,¡±You will be granted two thousand troops!All of them are Cavalry!¡±He said. Cavalry.They were one of the most important parts of the Army.They could easily change a war¡¯s tide.And most important was the horses!How strong they were,what race,abilities,power,cultivation level and finally...Loyality! With loyalty,no matter how powerful one¡¯s mount was,they would be unable to use 100% of their true power!¡±And the race is...Red Devil Horses!¡±Red Devil Horses!Jian Yun rolled his eyes.Did he hear right? They were mid level Horses,capable of easily killing Martial Refiners,even of the tenth layer.But to Jian Yun,they were trash!But he couldn¡¯t blame his master,after all he barely was at the top of the Martial Refiner realm! It was a great thing he was even allowed to use them!
