Chapter 130: Secret Mansion Part 9

Mike clenched his fist and raised his hand. The red phantom stood up as soon as he saw Mike attacking. It condensed immense waves of red qi, forming a giant red shield. As the fist thrusts forward, a dark hole appeared around them.

"Tch!"

Mike clicked his tongue and snapped his left finger, creating a barrier around them. His right hand didn't stop and collided against the shield. As it collided, a powerful impact burst out, almost cracking the barrier.

Crack! Bang!

But, it didn't take the impact a long time to break the barrier and it didn't take his fist to break the shield a long time either. As both crumbled into pieces, the fist struck the red phantom. The phantom turned into a mist of red qi while the black holes started appearing outside.

"Damn!" Guan Xing grunted and hurriedly caught Zhao Tan's body. Those black holes were creating a massive suction force. The pillars and walls started getting pulled inside these black holes. Guan Xing took Zhao Tan away but due to his body, Guan Xing's speed decreased.

At this moment, Guan Xing wasn't a cultivator. His cultivation was suppressed and the only way to move fast now was to wake up Zhao Tan. But, Zhao Tan wasn't in a great state either. Because of the intense injuries he suffered while stopping the red qi to come, he was almost in a state of coma.

His vitality has also dropped due to his restriction.

"Damn! I made such a great mess." Mike cursed to himself and snapped his finger while disintegrating into dust. As soon as he snapped his fingers, Zhao Tan's and Guan Xing's powers returned.

Whoosh! Thud! Thud!

Guan Xing who was putting immense pressure on his foot ended up flying out like a slingshot and colliding with the walls. Both of them fell on the ground but until then, the black holes were filled up by the space. The void created out of the destruction of Mike was gone.

"Ugh! That hurts." Zhao Tan grunted after colliding to the ground. His red qi was exploding out of his dantian, flowing throughout his veins, healing his wounds.

"Ha! Thank god, we survived." When the black holes were pulling them in, he almost thought he would die. If the restriction hadn't been removed, he wouldn't be able to move and escape the suction field of the black hole.

But before Guan Xing could say anything more, Zhao Tan grabbed his collar and asked with red eyes "Why? Why did you do that?"

Anger, helplessness, annoyance, gratefulness, every bit of his face was covered with emotions. The sourness of his voice, red teary eyes, running nose, and that grateful expression.

"What why? What the hell are talking about? I just saved your lazy ass right now." Guan Xing rolled his eyes and shouted back at Zhao Tan.

Hearing his words, Zhao Tan's hands trembled slightly. He clenched Guan Xing's collar tightly and shouted "Why the hell do you need to care about me? You were freaking me out. That stupidity would've killed you."

"You are right." Guan Xing nodded his head while pushing Zhao Tan away. He slowly stood up and said "You, Lan Ming, Brother Qin, Guo Min, Guo Yang, are the only geniuses that can match me. If you guys do not improve, it won't make me desperate to improve."

"And, Lan Ming was correct. You have that potential. You might not have the talent for cultivation but you have the talent for spearmanship. Just give up the thought of defying heaven, don't use that slaughtering technique."

"No, you are wrong." Zhao Tan shook his head and answered.

"I am not a genius. I don't qualify to be a genius. No, if we talk about cultivation alone, I don't even qualify to be a cultivator. From the age of five, I have been sharpening my spear skills. But, no matter how much I try, I never got a chance to become a cultivator."

"Until I found it. Something that changed my destiny, something that pushed me towards the greatness of cultivation. I do not have hatred towards heaven but this doesn't mean I do not have pride. I trained twenty-four hours, seven days, four weeks, twelve months, and eleven years just to reach the realm what I am."

"You think I am as good as Lan Ming, Qin Che, Guo Yang, or even Guo Ming? No, I am not. It's not about me trying to go against heaven. It's just heaven blocking my paths towards cultivation. What? You want me to remain a salted fish for all life."

"You think defying heaven is bad because you haven't suffered at all. Unless you are forced to beg for food, you won't understand the value of farming. Guan Xing, you and I are from different worlds. Your world is golden, filled with light and positivity."

"You saved me and I am grateful for that. But, do you not understand? It's not just me who is controlled by others. I didn't kill you even though you were supposed to be my enemy. And, you didn't kill me when I bluntly told you my strength."

"I know it's not you but something inside you is telling to you kill heaven defier because that something fears those people. Guan Xing, I am eternally grateful to you for killing that obsession. But, I can't give up on this path. Because only this path can open the door of your world."

"And, I want to live in that world, filled with light and positivity. And one day, I might be able to pay you back."

After Zhao Tan stopped speaking, he lowered his head and turned around. He clenched his hands with frustration.

"Then, become my rival?" Guan Xing opened his mouth and Zhao Tan froze for a moment. Zhao Tan clenched his fist, undecided about what to choose.

"You said you want to live in my world, right? But, in my world, there are only geniuses. Yes, all of us have different relationships but at the core, we are all rivals. Brother Qin and I are also rivals. Both of us are fighting for supremacy and maybe, one day we will truly fight when there is nothing that can stop us."

Guan Xing tried to convince Zhao Tan but he was still hesitant.

"I will not stop you from cultivating that technique nor will I stop you from walking the path of a defier. Join my world, and become our rival." Guan Xing continued.

"Do you think I am worthy? Yes, I want to enter that world. But, without that cultivation technique, I am nothing." Zhao Tan clenched his fist and turned around, staring straight into Guan Xing's eyes, he spoke.

"So, you don't know the path of defier, do you?" Guan Xing spoke as he stared at Zhao Tan with confusion. He thought Zhao Tan knew more about Heaven Defying.

Zhao Tan also stared back at Guan Xing with confusion.

"Heaven Defying is not just about killing heaven. It's about growing into prodigy from a worthless trash. It's a journey where you start with a overpower cultivation technique, find resources, and improve your talent in the path."

"Don't you realize? You have already improved your talent for spearmanship. As for the cultivation, you just need to find a way to improve it as well. Do you know the best thing about humans? They are normal. They are so normal that they can transform into any being without a hitch."

"Dragon, Phoenixes, Sword Immortals, Divine Beings, God of Wars, there are literally thousands and thousands of being that can increase your talent. Do you know the best thing about heaven-defying? You get a chance to improve your talent without limitation."

"Of course, sometimes they ended up inheriting something that heaven hates the most. There are some races, bloodlines, physiques, and even cultivation techniques that heaven hates. You just need to stay out of this unless you are truly ready to slaughter heaven which I don't want you to do it."

"So, except for that, you can basically improve your talent other things that are not restricted by the heaven. That's why I want to you be our rival and travel the world with us. If you can't keep up with us, you will keep improving in desperation and the same goes for us."

"Because it's not about the question what if you don't have that cultivation technique. It's about whether you are willing to push yourself beyond that. So, are you willing to become our rival?"

Guan Xing raised his hand and pointed at Zhao Tan with his fist closed.

Zhao Tan slowly pulled on a smile on his face and bumped his fist.

"Yes!"

"Alright, since we have solved this problem. Let's continue with the game! Our cultivation has been restricted once again." Guan Xing pulled his hand down and spoke while turning around.

"This time, let me!" Zhao Tan pointed the finger at himself and walked towards the center of the room.
