章節 298: The Battle Arrives - 298
Over the next 30 years, Guang Fu was taught powerful detection techniques and movement techniques. Each of the techniques he learned was one of the greatest in the world.
They would ensure that Yao Mun would not be able to hide from him or completely outclass him in speed.
"Remember, Yao Mun will likely still be faster than you. This will only make it fairer." Tian Ren said.
Based on what Tian Ren had said, Yao Mun spent a lot longer practicing movement techniques than Guang Fu.
"Next, we will create your own sword style. As I said before, I believe this is best learned by yourself." Tian Ren said. "Soon, you will reach the 10th level of the nascent soul realm. Soon after that, the battle will take place."
Guang Fu solemnly nodded. He was ready to practice with all of his effort.
After setting themselves up in the yard with their swords, Tian Ren came forward. Guang Fu had already started making his own sword style during the first months of training. He was only going back to it now.
This time, Tian Ren did not cut limbs off. He only left light scratches where a painful or fatal blow would have landed.
After 50 years, Guang Fu stood in front of Tian Ren as he had for a lot of his lifespan.
"It is time." Tian Ren said.
On the surface, Tian Ren looked neutral and stern, but he had grown attached to Guang Fu over their training.
He almost saw him as his son.
"You have not disappointed me. Are you prepared?" Tian Ren asked.
"I am more prepared than ever." Guang Fu responded.
Guang Fu was 291 years old, still considered young by the cultivation standard. Now, he was ready to fight to the death.
"Then let us move out." Tian Ren said as he hopped on his sword and flew.
Guang Fu looked at his yellow sword and did the same.
The flight was silent. Guang Fu had a brave face, but he could not help but feel nervous deep inside.
More than the fear of losing, he felt fear that everything he had gone through was for nothing. That he would die without fulfilling his purpose.
Luckily, he knew that his fear would dissipate when the time came.
Soon, Guang Fu and Tian Ren flew down onto the Heaven world base. The air seemed a lot more solemn than before Guang Fu left.
"What happened here?" Guang Fu asked.
"I've been out of the loop for a while myself." Tian Ren said. A second later, he noticed someone flying from afar.
"Hello husband." Tian Ren's wife said as she landed beside them.
"Good to see you. I would love to hang around, but we have an appointment soon. Quickly tell me what's going on." Tian Ren spoke to his wife.
"Alright. Morale around the base has been low since we had to take Yao Mun counter measures. A few years ago, he started to rampage around and kill any 3rd tier nascent soul realm cultivator he could get his hands on. Ignoring the bunch that we lost, the rest are guarded by 1st tier and 2nd tier nascent soul realm cultivators. Despite that, the beast world is operating normally and pushing us back." His wife explained.
"Alright. Tell me where Yao Mun is." Tian Ren said.
His wife looked confused for a moment as she scrunched her eyebrows. After a moment, she finally registered Guang Fu.
"Don't tell me you mean too…" Before she could finish, Tian Ren interrupted her.
"We don't have the time to speak. Tell me." He said.
"Fine. Here." She said as she handed him a location pinpointing talisman.
Tian Ren took it and flew into the air, followed by Guang Fu.
Before they took off, Tian Ren stopped in mid air. He was now high enough to see the entire base, and everyone in the base could see him. They were all staring in wonder at the first Heavenborn.
After a moment, Tian Ren spoke, his voice resounding across the base.
"Beside me stands Guang Fu. In just a few moments, he will battle Yao Mun." Tian Ren declared, shocking all those below. Yao Mun's name was widely known by both worlds now.
"Regardless of whether he wins or loses, remember his face. This is one of the most talented Heavenborns ever. He is the only one among us who may be able to defeat Yao Mun. I do not ask you to applaud or cheer, but memorize this man. He is what we should all strive for." Tian Ren said, allowing all his emotions built up over the years to be let out.
His will to sacrifice against Yao Mun, his pride in Guang Fu, and his dreams for all Heavenborns.
A moment later, he and Guang Fu flew away.
It was not long at all before they reached the first teleportation array. After a few more, they entered an enemy square.
They stood still on the ground as they looked ahead. After a moment, Tian Ren spoke.
"No matter how this turns out, even if it means nothing to you, know that I am thankful and proud of you." Tian Ren said.
"Thank you." Guang Fu said as he walked forward.
Tian Ren watched with mixed feelings as the barrier shot up, enclosing Yao Mun and Guang Fu behind a white dome.
—--------------------------------
Inside the barrier, Guang Fu saw nothing but empty plains. He closed his eyes for a moment and took a deep breath. He felt the emblem on his chest.
When he exhaled and his eyes opened, he was ready to fight to the death. He immediately deployed a detection technique, but as he did so, Yao Mun burst out of the ground from far away.
"You again? Are you lost or something?" Yao Mun laughed mockingly.
"Don't tell me you are here to fight me." Yao Mun said after looking into Guang Fu's eyes.
As Guang Fu stepped forward, he grabbed the sword in his sheath.
"I was a coward then, but I am a coward no longer." He spoke full of resolve.
"Then let me see just how far that bravery takes you." Yao Mun smiled.
