Chapter 292: What to do? - 292
A few minutes after the talisman was disconnected, Guang Fu managed to calm down. He had never really experienced such a life and death scenario.
The only other time was with the crane, but the crane was not half as terrifying. His opponent, who was so fast that he was undetectable, and the fact that he could not even be seen clearly was terrifying.
Guang Fu eventually calmed down and made his way through a bunch of teleportation arrays.
Soon, he arrived at the Heaven world's main base. Even though he did not venture to the base center, he was able to see the contribution wall from where he was standing. He found that he now had 13,000 contribution points.
Gunag Fu's attention only lingered on the wall for a moment before he continued walking. It was not long before he made it to a large building. It was a hundred feet wide and hundreds of feet tall.
Guang Fu walked up to the door and entered without the interference of the guards in front.
As he entered the lobby, Guang Fu saw a man waving at him, signaling him to come over.
Guang Fu walked over and the man spoke.
"Welcome. We have a meeting room upstairs waiting for you. Follow me." The man said as he turned around and walked through a door.
Guang Fu followed him and saw that the door led to a stairway. He walked up the stairs for a while until he finally stopped on the 48th floor.
He followed the man in front of him and walked past a couple of doors before entering a normal looking room. In the room was a long oval table filled with around 15 people.
"Welcome Guang Fu." A man walked up to him saying. "I'm the person you talked to through the talisman. Take a seat." He said as he pointed to a chair on the end of the table.
Guang Fu sat down and a tall, broad man spoke.
"We need you to tell us everything you know about the person who defeated you." The man spoke.
"I already said everything I know, but I'll say it again. He was humanoid, he used darkness Qi attacks, and he was overwhelmingly powerful." Guang Fu said.
"Yes. You said that he was hundreds of times more powerful than you. In that case, how exactly did you survive?" The same man asked suspiciously.
Guang Fu looked around the room for a moment before taking the emblem off of his chest and putting it on the table.
"I came across this powerful item. I'm not sure how strong it is or where it's from, but it is at least at the 6th rank." Guang Fu said.
He knew that there was a risk in telling people this in case of greed, but he decided to show it anyway. Otherwise, he would have suspicion laid upon him without any way to refute it.
As he spoke and showed the emblem, the room quieted completely.
Before Guang Fu could react, the man from before appeared next to him and grabbed the emblem.
Guang Fu wanted to say something along the lines of, 'Put that down it's mine', but he knew he couldn't do anything even if it was stolen from him.
The man looked at the emblem, flipping it around, before speaking.
"This is a peak 6th rank defensive item. From what I can tell, it can block three attacks up to the 10th level of the void traversing realm before it stops working. After a day, it will fully recharge." He said as he looked at Guang Fu.
"You were lucky to find such a powerful thing. At this time, your suspicion can be somewhat cleared, but I am curious. Can you explain where you got this?" The man asked.
After he spoke, he tossed the emblem back to Guang Fu.
Guang Fu put the emblem back on his chest and began to speak.
"When I came to the city to exchange contribution points, I wandered into an alley and met an old man. He was selling pathetic items, and I felt bad for him. I randomly bought one and it turned out to be this." He explained.
He received plenty of doubtful and disbelieving looks, but he stayed firm.
"Well. I guess you are free to go. Stay in the city for the time being. You've earned some time off." The large man said to him as he patted Guang Fu's shoulders.
Guang Fu nodded and stood up before leaving the room. A few minutes later, the room was empty, excluding the large man.
He pulled out a talisman and spoke into it.
"Lord Tian Ren. He had a powerful defensive item that saved him. He said he found it from some old man. As for the enemy, odds are it is Yao Mun." The man reported into the talisman.
"That's probably the worst news possible. Regardless, let Guang Fu stay in the base for a while." Tian Ren said as he hung up.
The man nodded and exited the room.
Tian Ren was left standing in a building with his hand on his forehead. Even without Heaven, he had long gotten wind of Yao Mun.
'Simply put. There is no way to defeat Yao Mun.' He thought to himself.
He already knew it was hopeless. No matter how confident he was in Guang Fu, there was simply no chance of victory.
'Unless he can get his hands on an attacking item at the void traversing level.'
Yet even then, he probably would not be able to use it. Items like the emblem were extremely rare. It was able to be used without the user's Qi. Such items were 1 in 10,000.
There was also the rule about not handing down powerful weapons which stopped Tian Ren from using such methods against Yao Mun.
Tian Ren sat down in his chair and thought hard. After a while, he finally scraped together the only plan he had to stop Yao Mun.
'I must train Guang Fu. With his defensive item, he would only need to worry about offensive measures. As long as he can defeat Yao Mun before Yao Mun releases a fourth attack, there would be nothing to worry about.'
Chapter 293: Yao Mun's Threat Level - 293
After a few days of rest and relaxation, Guang Fu felt his talisman move. He took it out of his spatial ring and listened.
"Guang Fu. Report to the mission building. A special assignment has been posted for you." The voice said before hanging up.
Guang Fu put the talisman back in his spatial ring and walked towards the mission building. The mission building was, as easily guessed, a place where missions were handed out and assigned.
Not every single individual was fit to participate in the war. Those who were weak, those who focused on things like forging and healing, and those who there were too many of.
Instead of wasting their time lazing around, they could go to the mission building and take missions for contribution points.
Healers could heal people, blacksmiths could make weapons for people, and unimportant people could do miscellaneous tasks.
The building was completely wooden and only one floor, but it was extremely big. Guang Fu walked inside, and immediately saw the front desks.
He walked up to one of the twenty stations and talked to the receptionist.
"My name is Guang Fu. I was ordered to receive a mission here." Guang Fu stated.
Without speaking, the black haired lady went in the back for around half a minute and brought back an envelope.
"Follow the map. That is all the mission states." The lady said as Guang Fu received the envelope.
Guang Fu nodded and headed to one of the tables in the room. The tables were usually used for team meetings, but they were also briefly used to open information.
Guang Fu opened the envelope. It held only a map and some words describing where to go and certain landmarks.
After a moment, Guang Fu shrugged and got up. He was ordered to do the mission, so he would do it regardless of its weirdness.
It took only a few minutes for Guang Fu to leave the city-sized base. He followed a dirt trial for 30 miles, before turning onto another one for 50 miles.
He then walked through a valley, took a detour around a mountain, walked for more than 100 miles on a single trail, and accidentally wandered into a cave, before finally reaching the foot of a large mountain.
The mountain was covered with pink cherry blossom trees. From afar, one could also see a few waterfalls.
Where Guang Fu stood, there was a trail upwards. Decorating that trail were red torii gates and a lining of purple wisteria trees.
The mountain looked straight out of a painting. It seemed like the type of thing you would hear of, but never actually see.
Guang Fu began to walk up the mountain trail, admiring the scenery along the way.
After a few minutes, the upward slope flattened. The mountain sloped up all the way, except for one point that seemed to be carved off. It was the sole flat area around.
As Guang Fu reached that point, he saw a large yard and a small wooden house. Sitting on the porch of that house was someone that any person in the Heaven world and the Beast world could recognize.
Tian Ren.
Seeing Tian Ren himself, Guang Fu was stunned into stillness. As he stood there, dumbfounded, Tian Ren opened his eyes.
"Welcome. Come, sit next to me." He spoke evenely.
Tian Ren had a slightly mystical look, but the most noticeable thing was the lightning bolt on his forehead.
After a moment, Guang Fu shook his head and walked through the yard to Tian Ren. After a moment of hesitation, he sat next to him.
"Do you know why you were called here?" Tian Ren asked.
"I do not." Guang Fu responded.
"Because of the person who defeated you. Simply put, there is nobody in the Heaven world at the nascent soul realm who stands a chance of defeating him. Except you." Tian Ren spoke.
"Why me?" Guang Fu responded with a confused look on his face.
"Because you too are special. Also, it seems like you two share an entwined fate." Tian Ren spoke.
Before Guang Fu responded, Tian Ren continued.
"In a way, me and Bi Chong share an entwined fate, but that is only because we are the strongest among our worlds. You and Yao Mun, the man who defeated you, however, are different. Almost at the same time, you and him appeared from nowhere. Both of you can be considered once in a hundred thousand years talents, but appeared so close to each other. As a final hint, you are both basically opposites." Tian Ren finished.
Guang Fu thought about his words for a while and nodded. He had no understanding of Yao Mun, but he understood what Tian Ren was saying.
"With my defensive item and my talent, I have a slight chance of defeating Yao Mun." Guang Fu said before Tian Ren needed to.
"Indeed. Until you reach 10th level of the nascent soul realm, I will train you in offensive techniques with all of my ability. At that time, he should also have superior speed, so I'll add in some detection techniques." Tian Ren said.
"Alright." Guang Fu said. He would never pass on the opportunity to receive training from the strongest and first heavenborn.
"Before we start, can you tell me who this Yao Mun is? You said he was the opposite of me, but how so?" Guang Fu asked.
"I've had my eye on you for a while. I have seen how you are. You are kind, well intentioned, and overall, good. Yao Mun is none of those things. He is evil, he lives to kill and harm. Yet, he is powerful. Too powerful to be left alive. It is known that he wishes to kill Heaven. At first, I laughed it off as a joke. However, he may be able to achieve it. He is a horrifying talent with a horrifying combat ability. For the sake of the entire world, he must be killed." Tian Ren explained.
Guang Fu was shocked hearing his words.
"You expect me to kill someone so talented that he poses a threat to Heaven itself?" Guang Fu asked.
"I do not expect anything. It simply must happen. One way or another, Yao Mun cannot live." Tian Ren said.
