《Defying The Heavens》 Prologue: Dying to be born again Prologue: Dying to be born again 20XX XX XX It was not a special day or anything. It was just a normal day. People doing their own thing. Office workers going to work, children going to school, housewives cleaning the house. It was unlike any other. But to a certain someone it was not. Today for him it was a special day, a day for him to get his revenge, to woop some people asses and to get retribution. Unknown Place In an unknown building. A group of black suit with heavy arms were guarding that particular building. "Make sure the building is clear. We don''t want any intruder to get into this room and ruin our boss''s business" - ???? A black suit man who looked a lot bulkier and stronger than the rest told everyone. He then grabbed his communicator, to check if everything was clear. "Section 1 is everything clear over" - ???? "Affirmative " - ???? "Section 2 is everything clear over"- ????? "Affirmative" - ???? "Section 3 is everything clear over" - ???? "Affirmative " - ???? "Section 4 is everything clear over"- ???? GGGGGGRRRRRRRRR - ??? "Section 4 is everything clear over" - ???? GGGGGGGGRRRRRRR - ???? "Section 4 i repeat is everything clear over" - ???? GGGGGGGGRRRRRRRRRR - ???? No response was coming. The bulky guy knew something was wrong. "Everyone get yours guns loaded" - bulky guy The bulky guy then cocked his gun and called his boss. "Boss there is a intruder i should think that you should stop this meeting" - bulky guy "Are you out of your mind this deal is the most important deal i have made in my life. Take care of that pest quickly, I don''t want anything wrong to happen or else" - boss "Yes boss"- bulky man The bulky man knew something was wrong as if his instinct was telling him that something is wrong. As he turned around to order his men he saw. BLOOD There was Blood everywhere, his men were all dead. He felt as if he was in a horror movie with all the blood and dead people. Then he saw someone a man. A man who was wearing a white mask but as he looked closely. He could not see the eye of that stranger, all he could see was darkness. An endless void of darkness and most of all his death. The man slowly walked towards him and slowly drawed to katana from his back. One was white as snow and another was pitch black. As the bulky guy was about to shoot at him. He saw the view changed. Everything was falling, but as looked towards his body he saw his body was headless. He could not even scream nor could he react to know that he was beheaded my the masked man. All he could do now was die. The masked man then slowly walked and and went into the room were the boss was having a meeting. As he walked close to the door, he moved his two blades against the door. Then! SLASH SLASH SLASH SLASH 4 slashes were dealt, then suddenly the door with a dong fell. A anti-missile door with shock resistent was easily slashed opened. As the boss who was having a meeting with his client was startled. "Who are you?" - boss The boss suddenly said after he regained his calm. But his client could not. He was shaking a lot as if he saw death himself. Suddenly the masked guy moved and killed the client. SPLAT Blood flowed out from the beheaded body of the client. A drop of blood fell on the cheek of the boss. Then the boss fell down the floor and dragged himself away from the masked man trying to run away from him. The masked man slowly neared towards him. "what do you want from me"- boss The boss said to the man. Suddenly the masked man halted and said. "What do i want?"- masked man "YES! What ever you want i can give you anything."- boss The boss hurriedly said to the masked man. In order to save his life his was willing to give anything to the masked man. "Then......... Give me your.......... LIFE"- masked man When the masked man said those words, all color was lost from the boss''s face. He even out of fear peed on his pant. If you discover this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation. "NO, NO please MERCY, PLEASE MERCY"- boss The boss begged for the masked man to spare his life. "Mercy! 10 years ago did you gave mercy to my family when you brutally killed them" - masked man The masked man suddenly said those words and suddenly he remembered something. 10 years ago for two pair of ancient katanas he killed a family as one of his client said the he wanted that and would be willing to give him a lot of money. He killed the whole family but could not kill a boy as he was on a field trip and could not even find the katanas. He felt that it was his fault that gave birth to this monster. "No wait i wasn''t my fau"- boss Before the boss could even speak he was killed by that masked man. After he killed the boss he slowly walked away from the building. In a cliff where you could see that sun was about to rise a figure was there holding two swords and looking at three graves. He looked like a person who was in his 20. Had a handsome face that could make any women fall for him, black hair and blue eyes. "Mom, dad, little sister i finally got revenge for what they did to you. Now you all can rest peacefully."- ???? The man said, then he digged a hole and buried the the swords. He walked closer to the edge of the cliff and looked at the rising sun. "Sorry master this foolish disciple of yours could not keep his promise to you. I hope you forgive me"- ???? With a sad tone he said looking towards the rising sun. With a sad look in his face but was rid away when he smiled. If anyone was looking at him smile they would feel a sense of joy in them and if a girl would have then she would have fainted on the spot. "Mom, dad, little sister and master. This foolish son and disciple of yours is coming to you"- ???? With that words said the man suddenly jumped off the cliff and fell. He had no purpose to live after he fullfilled his mission, he had seen enough horrible scenes of tragedy in his life, what people would do for money, even kill their own kin. So would there be any meaning for him to live. NO he would not. As he fell he remembered all the time he spend with his family all the joyful and happy times. Then he slowly lost his consciousness to the abyss. Unknown place In a huge chinese mansion there we could see that the servants of the house were hurriedly running from place to place, some were panicking, some were carrying a towel and from a certain room we could hear a women was screaming. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH"- ???? "Mistress hold it together the baby is coming out, push mistress, push."- servant As the servant said those words a new cry was heard. A cry of a baby. "WWWWWWWWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"- baby As the baby cried the servant picked the baby and brought the baby near the mistress. "Mistress look its a boy"- servant The servant said in a cheerful tone. The mistress smiled as she looked at the baby. But as she looked closely she could see that the eyes of the baby was moving. As if it was checking its surrounding. But the mistress kept it in the back of her mind as today her son was born and she was happy. while she was happily admiring the baby. She did know what the baby was thinking. "Where the fuck am i."- baby The baby, actually the man who fell from the cliff was reincarnated again as a baby, was shocked by the new surrounding. "Its like those novels where a person gets reincarnated as a baby and this shit happened to me DAMN." - baby As he was thinking all of these. Suddenly a man in a robe came running. "HAHAHAHAHAHAHA i have a son i am so happy"- ???? Said the man aloud in a cheerful voice. All the baby ( who is actually a 20 years old man) could think was. "OOH boy! Shit just got real"- baby _____________________________________________________________________________________________ This is my first chapter chapter i hope you all can be lenient on me. Vol 1: Chapter 1- Why? Vol 1: Chapter 1- Disappointment MC POV It has been 6 years since i have been born. During this past years i have got many important information about this world. First of all this world is called The Profound Spirit Beast world. Yup truly a great name, but that''s not all. At first i thought this world was suppose to be like the world in those xianxia novels. But wait! There is a catch. This world is actually (for me) a mix of both xianxia and western worlds. How awesome is that when i was reading this information in the library of our manor, man i was drooling. The world is 50x times larger than earth. 30 hours per day, 609 days and total this world has 20 months in a year. The qi or mana said in this world is 100x more dense than what was in earth. I know this cause in my previous life my master taught me the the ways of martial arts. He taught me the technique called the Yin-Yang Essence Technique which helps me to absorb the primal qi of the world. But hardly anyone one can practice this technique. When i asked my master about this, he said to me every living being''s soul represents a element, his character and personality can be as short tempered and explosive like fire or calm and clear like water. I asked my master how can i practice in this technique? He said it is because my soul does not represents any element like master or like my master''s master.This is what he said to me and the many advantages of this technique is that it helps me to not leak any aura from my body. This technique has 10 stages. Body, mind, soul, reborn, nirvana, immortal, sage, transcendence, godhood and true god. Each stages is divided into 10 levels. The body stage is the stage where we purify our bones, organs meridians and blood with the help of primal qi. I am currently in the body 10th stage but as how many try to breakthrough through this stage i cannot as if something is forcefully stopping me. Moving on. The world is divided into 7 continents.
  1. The Great East continent consisting of humans and where my home is.
  2. The Great West continent consisting of humans as well.
  3. The Profound Forest continent consisting of elfs.
  4. The Demon Continent consisting of demons.
  5. The Great Beast continent consisting of beastkins.
  6. The Heaven continent consisting of all the races mixed together.
7. The Desolate Plane, not much information is known about them but it is said that this plane has a horde of strong monsters living. Unlike the world of magic or martial arts it is a world of summoning. In this world it is said that one soul represents a spirit beast. During the ancient times monsters were growing far more stronger for the different races to handle. so to gain more power to fight against this monster. They found a technique which lets them summon a spirit best from the astral plane corresponding to their soul. The individual would be soul bound to the spirit best for the rest of their lives. But a person can only have one spirit best. If more then the best would weaken or may die. If you encounter this tale on Amazon, note that it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it. A person can summon their spirit beast and train is when they reach the age of 6 and today is the day where i will summon my spirit beast. I am so hiped. As i was ready to go out of my room i heard a knock. KNOCK KNOCK "who is it?"- MC "Young master you father has ordered me to bring you to the summoning hall"- Servant Said the servant. I opened the door of my room and went with the servant to the summoning hall. Oi i forgot one thing to tell. One is not given a name after he is born. Only after he is successful in summoning a spirit beast can he be named. My clan name is the Azure dragon clan. Which is one of the 4 great clans of the Great East continent. The other 3 great clans are, the White Tiger clan, Black Turtle clan and The Phoenix clan. My new father''s name is Long, my mom''s name is Mei, i have a elder brother whose name is Hao. As i reached the summoning hall for the first time i saw a huge dome-shaped room where i saw saw many children of my age and other can members and my family. I saw that in order to summon a spirit a person must touch that huge multi-colored orb in the middle of the hall. I saw many of the children summon different type of spirit beast. Finally it was my turn. "Young master of the Azure clan please come near the summoning orb", said the man in a green robe who was the incharge for the summoning ritual. As i went near the orb, he said me to touch it. As i touched it with both of my hands. I felt a pulling force from the orb and then the stone started glowing. My hands felt like it was burning as i looked to my hands a strange emblem appeared in both of my hands. After the strange emblem completely appeared in my hands the burning sensation stopped. Then suddenly i felt life my qi in my body was surging like crazy and with a boom inside my body i broke through to the mind stage. So the reason i could not break through the mind stage was, that i did not do the summoning ritual. As i was happy that i broke through the mind stage. The man incharge asked me to summon my spirit beast, he said me to concentrate on the strange emblem. As i close my eyes to concentrated on the emblem. It felt like i have done it many times. As i finished summoning slowly opening my eyes in both of hands were two swords or katanas. One was a pure white that could even shine in the darkness and the other was pitch black as even if light would hit it it would not shine. They where my old family''s heirloom. White Moon and Black sun the twin katanas. As i looked at those katanas i felt a surge of happiness from within. As i looked towards my parents i saw the look on their faces, they looked surprised but as i looked at their eyes. All i could say was. WHY? Vol 1: Chapter 2- I walk alone VOL 1: CHAPTER 2 - I walk alone I saw those eyes again! The eyes of disappointment, it is telling me how much of a failure i am, eyes saying i am worst than a trash, those eyes that i never wanted to see. I saw it again. But those eyes belonged to my parents. The ones who gave birth to me, the ones who took care of me, the one who i love no the ones whom i loved. Their looks made me feel like i should just..................... disappear. The only thing i held dear was my mom, dad and little sister in my past life. But as i was reborn, I thought that i was given a second chance to redeem myself, a chance to protect my new family. But now it is just a foolish dream. I knew why their were looking at me like that, its because i became their greatest taboo a person who has a dead spirit. My spirit does not fall into any type of spirit beast. A dead spirit type can never grow strong. Even if they can, they can never be as strong as a living spirit beast. The only thing left for me to do was walk away. I don''t want to hear anything that comes from the mouth of my parents. All i can do is walk away. As i kept walking away from the hall. No one tried to stop me, no one even tried to block me, they all made a small path for me to walk away. My so called parents did not even try to stop me. So much for family. PART 2 A boy who had whit hair, looked to be at an age of 6, was walking alone on a path that lead to the path to the Black Forest. Far away from the Clear Sky City, the place were he was born. Now no more. As, if people were to look at his eyes they would only see, eyes that had no spark, no live, eyes that showed had he did not care about living, eyes that only showed the endless darkness. This content has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere. Yes it was me a person who was dis-owned by his family, the greatest taboo, an unwanted child, a................ lonely child. As i neared a the the gate of the city. A guard called me."Oi! Kid where are you going?". But i did not respond to his call. I kept on walking. "Oi kid i said....", as the guard neared me a caught my shoulder, as i looked at his eyes he sudden stopped and let me go, but i did not care to stop. I just kept walking alone the lonely path. DARK FOREST As finally i read my destination, it was soon going to be night time now. I went to search for shelter, as i as looking for shelter i saw a cave. As i neared it i saw that it was an abandoned cave, it was going to be the place where i would stay. I went to the jungle to find something to eat and i came across some wild fruits. Reaching the cave i started a camp fire. As i laid near the camp fire I thought. what am i going to do from now on. I did not had any plan, but i have resolved myself. From now on my real training shall begin from now on and the Dark Forest is suitable for training, no one in the right mind would come here ( except me ) and there is a lot of strong monsters here. A perfect place for me to train. The time for me grow strong has finally come. In my life their was no one to walk side by side beside me, no one helped me nor did i ask for help, but i don''t need any help, i can be strong without any help because in the path of being strong no one is going to help you, even if their is someone who walks besides you, but what would happen if that person was gone, you would be weak again. In that path of being strong only you can help yourself. VOL 1: CHAPTER 3- New information Vol 1: Chapter 3- New information It has been many days since i have started my intense training. I have fought a lot of monster from 1st to 5th ranked monsters.If i had forgot to mention monsters also have ranks, they start from 1 to 10 rank. Above the 10th rank, the monsters are ranked as War ranked monster, which can destroy a whole town. Famine ranked monsters, can destroy a whole country. Conquest rank monsters, can destroy half a city and Death ranked monsters which can destroy a whole country. They say that above death ranked monsters, there are more stronger monsters but no information is there about them. I have grown a lot stronger during these past days. I have advanced to the 3rd level of the Mind stage. There has appeared a lot of changes in me, like my black hair has all turned gray, but i have not gone old and i have no idea how my hair became gray. After i have awakened my spirit tool, yes instead of saying a spirit beast or dead spirit beast, i named my weapons as spirit tool because i did not like how people of this world named it. I can now open my status scroll, yes status scroll. They are like status plate like in those novels, but in this world it is different, our status appears in a scroll and information about ourself, spirit beast, title and unique skill are shown. Mine status scroll looks like this: NAME: < NOT ENTERED > TITLE: REINCARNATED, ABANDONED, SILENTS KILLER, NIGHTMARE SPIRIT TOOL: BLACK SUN WHITE MOON TWIN SLAYER BLADES MASK OF CELESTIAL UNIQUE SKILL: ABSORB As you can see there are many things shown in the status scroll. First, is i have no name, its because i am not named yet as during the ceremony i was suppose to be named but i was not. Second, i have titles. Titles are given to individual who have done some really good deed or something really bad. They can also gain quest by defeating some strong monsters or completing a quest. But i must say one think titles also have power. They can help a individual in many was. If you have a goblin slayer as a title then it means that kill goblins will be much easier to you than other people killing goblins. Third, i have the skill call "absorb", it is unique skill that solely belongs to me only. It gives me the ability to absorb the unique skill of my deceased enemy. How do i know about this works is, thinking or pressing the unique skill or any think you want to know about your title, spirit tool, will appear in the status scroll. But i don''t know but i have a feeling that my unique skill "absorb" is more than what meets the eye. The author''s narrative has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon. Fourth, i have two spirit tool, i did not know the full name of my black sun and white moon, but with the help of status scroll i have known their full name and have gained a valuable information about then. When i tried to gain information about my two blades it was all question mark (????), which really puzzled me and in the status scroll it is said that it is in dormant stage. which i don''t know the hell it means. The next spirit tool is called "Mask of Celestial",which was plane white, had no teeth had only two eye and had a mysterious marking at the edge of it. This mask belonged to my master and before he died he gave it me, he said that this mask used to belong to his master and was giving it to me. He said that this mask has many mysteries and not much is known about it even my master did not really have any information about it and so did the status scroll. The mask gave me a skill called information, it helps me to gain information of my enemies, monsters and my surrounding. Spirit beast and spirit tool give their master skills and can gain new skill after they breakthrough a new stage. Moving on, i have discovered that i am a lot stronger than most spirit beast practitioner, because when the practitioner cultivate or absorb the essence of their defeated foes they use the spirit beast a medium to cultivate. Which means that they must depend on their spirit beast to cultivate and can only gain half of the absorbed essence or cultivate to refine the raw mana in the atmosphere. So that means if the beast grows stronger the practitioner will as well. But for me its different, since my i have a dead spirit. I cannot use it as a medium. But it does not matter because i have the "Yin-Yang Essence Technique" which helps me absorb the most purer of mana the primal mana. With me acting as a medium i can absorb as much mana as i want and cultivate, as well make my spirit tool many more times stronger than other practitioner spirit beast. Right now i am walking towards the deepest part of Dark Forest. Suddenly as i was walking i felt killing intent. Years of fighting and killing had helped me able to release deep killing intent and detect any killing intent. As i looked towards the direction where the killing intent came from. A figure came from the bushes. Oh boy! Let get this started. Vol 1: Chapter 4- Bloody Battle Vol 1- Training in the Dark Forest: Chapter 4- Bloody battle Form the bushes came a creature that had bloody red eyes full of bloodlust, bloody red silky fur, it was bigger than a grown man. It was an Elite Blood Wolf. This type of wolf ranked at 6th. They are really ferocious monsters. But all i could say that this wolf is really strong. GRRRRRRRRR The Blood Wolf started growling towards me, full of bloodlust. I summoned my two blades and my mask and got into a battle stance. As i paid attention to the blood wolf when it was going to attack me, it suddenly made its move a come straight towards me with it jaws wide open towards me. In order to doge i rolled over to the side, the blood wolf lost its balance. So i did not miss the chance to attack his. I as quickly moved towards him and i gave a slash towards his neck but i made a fatal mistake. Blood wolf furs are a strong as steel and i made the most fatal mistake. Even though i attacked at its neck it still was an error, only a small wound was made in its neck. The wolf without missing its chance swiped its claws towards. I tried to doge it but i was in his range. AAAAAAAHHHHH As its claws hit me in my chest, i could not help my self but scream in pain. Even though the wound did not do much damage to my ribs, but it still damaged me a lot. "OK Mr. Wolf playtimes over". I said to the wolf and all it did to me was growl at me. Its time to use technique to beat this big bad wolf. I went into a new stance. With both of my swords at the sides, leaving my body defenseless as if i was taunting the wolf to attack me. The wolf finding it as if the human was not taking him seriously. Out of anger the blood wolf lunged at him. As the wolf''s huge jaws was closing at me. I made my move. As if i teleported myself i was behind his back. Without missing this chance a not making the same mistake. In the body stage with the help of mana we can purify our body, but in the ming stage it is the stage where we form our dan pool or mana pool in our body. As we increase our level in the mind stage our mana pool increases, but we breakthrough out of mind stage and to soul stage, our mana pool increased to a hole level according to how much our body can handle . I enhanced my blades with mana and my blades glowed in a black and white colour. Taken from Royal Road, this narrative should be reported if found on Amazon. Then slash slash, i slashed two strikes at the wolf. Then its head came off flying off its body. The Elite Blood Wolf was finally killed. The technique i used to attack the wolf is called "Soundless Death", taught to me by my master. It is one of the attack skill that belongs to the "Death dance art" to me by my master and the movement technique i used when i used it against the wolf when i came behind him. Which is called "Phantom Steps". When my master taught mt this art he said to me,"Death is silent, when it comes no ones will know, When it comes no one can run away from it. Even the so called gods cannot run away from it. Death is the most scariest thing every being will feel. Remember if their is life, there is death". As i huffed and wiped the sweat of my forehead. Suddenly i felt many presence towards me. AWOOOOOOOOOOO A whole pack of blood surrounded me. One of the characteristic of the blood wolf is their loyalty and their spirit to never give up. Even if their leader is dead. They will never run away. They will fight till the end until they have killed their enemy. "What a luck!", I said mockingly towards myself. This is going to be one bloody battle. ONE HOUR LATER HUFF HUFF HUFF I was breathing really heavily, The blood wolf showed no sign of giving up until every last one of then was killed my me. My body was full of bite marks, claws marks and a lot of blood. It was really a bloody battle. I have depleted my whole mana pool. Alas it was finally over. I sat cross legged and started absorbing all the essence from the blood wolfs. Slowly but surely my wounds started healing. My mana pool was again full of mana. After a whole night of absorbing the essence of the blood wolf. My injuries were all healed, but still the scars remained. I have leveled up to the 6th level of mind stage. My body became a lot stronger and my mana pool increased. Last night battle made me realize i was still weak. It made me fill that i can be stronger than this. Standing up, i looked up at the sky and steeled myself to become even stronger. I started walking, my destination. Towards the core of the Dark Forest.
