Regardless of whether or not what the boxes said are true, Wu Yan kept the rings. They might be fake but even if they were fake there’s no problem in just keeping them, and what if it were real?
Might as well a.s.sume it to be true than a.s.sume the opposite.
He organized the rings and was thinking about putting them in the bag before something hit him and he sighed before he wore them on his fingers.
3 rings, 1 of them being a s.p.a.ce ring are worn on his hands with 2 on the left and 2 on the right. If he were to go back to his original world, people would probably think of him as a delinquent or just showing off his wealth…
Why? Because the rings vary in motifs, gold, silver, gold, just a few more colours and his hand would be fabulously decorated in prismic colours…
“It feels like somehow, I’ve been screwed over yet again…”
“Well, our gains this time isn’t small anyway, no need to be so dispirited…”
Kaichou-sama patted his shoulders. Maybe she thinks he’s too pitiful and thought it would be better for him to count his blesssings…
“I guess you’re right, I admit I got a bit greedy…”
Mikoto can’t figure out how Wu Yan’s mood can get lifted with only a few words of consolation from Kaichou-sama.
Lirin climbed up ontop the stone table and observed the crystal ball curiously. Looking and looking she then reached out and stroke the crystal ball.
When she made contact with the crystal ball, it lit up in radiant lights with a buzz. The sudden change made Lirin jump back and fell off the table.
Wu Yan, Hinagiku and Mikoto are surprised and they didn’t care about the change with the crystal ball as they hurriedly caught Lirin. It’s lucky they aren’t that far from the table otherwise Lirin would have enjoyed an intimate contact with the dust on the ground.
“Are you alright…”
Seeing as Lirin’s still stunned, Hinagiku took her into her arms and consoled her. She shook her head and signified that she’s okay.
After Wu Yan and Mikoto confirmed she’s okay they released a sigh of relief and turned over to the crystal ball that acted up.
The light show there is slowly solidifying giving people an impression that something is going to pop out.
And then the light flickered and shot upwards forming a screen in front of Wu Yan & company.
“Is this some kind of projection?”
Mikoto wondered out loud in front of the light screen. In this world, she has seen crystal b.a.l.l.s like this many times before and they are mostly for communication purpose and projections…
Wu Yan didn’t say anything, he kept his eyes on the light screen. Mikoto showed Hinagiku an angry expression before everyone stared at the light screen.
The light screen rippled like water and then they saw it. Various images are starting to appear…
“So it’s projections…”
As they watched, the images changed in front of their eyes….
A normal person, as average as they come being born inside a normal family and living a normal life…
But this person isn’t pleased with this kind of unfulfilling life and so he decided to leave his home and depart on his own journey.
On his journey, he saw warriors, he saw magicians, he witnessed dou qi, and he witnessed magic. He seemed like he looke dup to them and so he worked hard to get the approval of one warrior and became his disciple…
His journey then turned into cultivation.
He cultivated his dou qi and made it. He trained in battle skills and he excelled in them. Beating everyone’s expectation, he turned out to be a super rare genius…
Under the tutelage of his mentor he very fast and soon he learnt all his master could teach and surpa.s.sed his master…
But he’s still not satisfied with this and he set out on another journey. It’s just that this time it’s not a pure journey, it’s also a cultivation trip…
He made a lot of friends, exchanged pointers with them and they helped each other out. He also made enemies and screwed over a lot of them as well as fighting to the death with them at times…
The first armament he could remember he got it from an enemy. The second time he got a stronger one, it was also taken from the dead foes. He’s not rich, he has to do everything by himself…
He slaughtered armies and generals, he cut through thistles and thorns. All who stood before him got eliminated by him. In each fight he kept making breakthroughs after breakthroughs.
Finally, he climbed up the totem pole form being a puny weakling to a strong individual burned into the eyes of many….
Important families tried recruiting but he rejected them all because he felt that he wasn’t strong enough yet.
Some of the ones he rejected tried to a.s.sa.s.sinate him and got the tables turned on them. He showed no mercy because this would only give them more chances to strike back at him.
n.o.body could hold him down not even women of varying hotness because inside his heart there is only the desire to become stronger….
He kept refining and improving his dou qi and trained his battle skills, making incessant breakthroughs in abilities. Stronger and stronger he grew…
Until a point, he was so stronk n.o.body dared messed with him. He’s so strong important families tried recruiting him as their protector guardian and begged him to be their mentor…
He rejected them all because he feels that he is not strong enough yet…
One day, another person emerged. Perhaps one could not call this person a person because he descended from the sky. The guy could destroy mountains with his bare fist and split the earth with his legs and one slap from him could inflict serious harm onto him…
This for him is the first defeat he suffered since many years…
This reinforced his internal thought, the thought that he still isn’t strong enough…
To become even more powerful he shut himself away and swore never to come out until he reached the point where he could defeat the person…
An untold amount of time pa.s.sed and he finally came out. On this day, he sent the door to his cultivation room into oblivion with one punch and he took flight.
He located the person from before and fought an epic battle with the person.
The battle shook the earth and sky, splitting mountains and seas alike.
A battle so epic in proportion the sound could be heard for miles and miles and blood rained down on the earth!
The result was another loss on his part…
Lying on the ground defeated and tattered with blood painted all over his body, inside his receding consciousness the person told him that if he wanted to defeat him then he still need to improve….
He dragged his battered torso back to his cultivation place and rebuilt the door he destroyed before. He understands that he’s going to be here for a period of time…
Making the cultivation place his home, he rebuilt it with stones and polished it before he went into cultivation once more…
An untold amount of time flew by and he emerged again one day….
He located the person and fought with him once more…
The battle moved earth and shook mountains, remapping the sky and making tsunamis!
It was a hard fought battle where he couldn’t tell if it was his hands breaking or his bones creaking, his body and mind went into pure ecstacy!
the result wasa a tie for both sides…
But, he’s satisfied with this outcome…
This meant that from that day onwards, n.o.body is stronger than him…
He didn’t chase victory and he didn’t pursue a beatdown on the other party. He knows, he has finally become a super!
And so, he returned home to find his family but his family weren’t there anymore…
Hollowness and loneliness filled his heart…
He built a faction on the place his family used to be and recruited armies to conquer everything form the north to south in order to fill the empty feeling he has within.
With a person such as him, it’s unsurprising that his faction grew to become the strongest power on that continent…
Of course, this is only for now because soon came two other power that caught up to him…
They made an agreement of mutual respect, they would split the land equally between them and no one will mess with each other. Their power finally knew peace…
However, this is also another temporary period…
One day, an item appeared and shattered any status quo of peace between them…
In order to obtain the item, he and the other two factions fought an all out war.
The item is just that alluring…
It was so entrancing that the one who fought two battles with him before joined the fray as well…
Their powers tied and n.o.body could definitively bring down another until finally they all released everything they have at each other and got wrecked pretty hard…
Dragging his dying body he came to his cultivation place and left a magic creature he dominated here to guard the three boxes and a crystal ball…
After that… he turned into ashes and flew away with the winds…
