《Refining the Mountains and Rivers》Chapter 854B – Origin of Rebirth
Advertisement
Bang –
Qin Yu pushed forward without mercy. Before the shaking strength in his arms dissipated and while his chest still felt heavy, he attacked once again. The Ancient God Spear thrust forward at a faster speed causing invisible power to stir within the world, creating even more amazing phenomena.
The Ancient race’s second holy relic was the Ancient God Spear, and it was a master of slaughter and destruction. It was a top class weapon of the world and the thicker the wielder’s killing intent, the more power it could erupt with.
At this time, countless pitiful screams and howls filled the air between the heavens and earth. Some were filled with fear, some were filled with unwillingness, and some were choked with despair…these voices all came from the lives that the Ancient God Spear had slain over the years.
The Ancient was startled. Qin Yu was unexpectedly able to form a resonance with the Ancient God Spear and cause it to release the ‘Howl of the Damned’. As these sounds fell into his ears, it was like countless tiny and sharp needles maliciously piercing his brain. If it weren’t for his formidable will then under the ‘Howl of the Damned’ his strength would be drastically reduced. But even if he managed to block it, he was still influenced by it.
Bang –
There was another collision of Ancient God Spears. The Ancient was forced backwards again. He narrowed his eyes as he stared at Qin Yu, trying to find some clues from him. But what left him disappointed was that Qin Yu revealed no flaws. Qin Yu only attacked again and again, as if he wanted to use this method to slowly whittle away all of his strength and finally kill him like this.
But this was clearly impossible, so what was Qin Yu’s true goal?
Bang –
Bang –
Again and again, the Ancient God Spears clashed and heaven-shaking rumbles filled the air. Qin Yu marched forward unceasingly and the Ancient retreated in sync with him.
It was close! It was close!
Qin Yu’s eyes lit up. A radiant divine light erupted in his hands. He raised the Ancient God Spear once more. But this time, his target wasn’t the Ancient but the broken space to his left.
This position was actually still a little short of what he believed to be the optimal distance. However, he no longer dared to delay any further. In his wild confrontation with the Ancient, the entire surrounding space began to shake and quiver on the verge of collapse. In fact, it was likely that the First Moon Mountain Range outside was being affected by their battle now.

Qin Yu was worried that the Origin God’s Origin of Rebirth hidden in space would suddenly be triggered. At that time, his only fate would be to accompany the Ancient in death.
Whoosh –
The Ancient God Spear howled out. This time, Qin Yu chose to let go. He madly poured the entirety of his strength into the spear. His fingers opened up as the spear shot out of his hands. As it did, his feet crashed into the ground and he exploded away without pause.
When Qin Yu turned his head his eyes had become dark gold in color. They were calm and steady, without any more fluctuation of mood. Then, he lifted a hand and punched out at the void. All of the surrounding darkness disappeared, revealing a stable channel. Looking through it, one could see massive mountains shattering and breaking apart outside.
This channel led to the outside world!
He took a step forward, about to step in.
In a single breath of time, the situation had completely changed. Even though the Ancient had a formidable mind, his heart still stopped beating for a second. He never imagined that after Qin Yu’s violent barrage of attacks he would suddenly choose to turn around and flee without hesitation.
Did Qin Yu know he wasn’t a match for him and so he chose to run away? No, if he really wanted to flee then he would have thrown the spear at him, giving him more time to escape. Why did he shoot at the empty nothingness?
Unless this seemingly bare space wasn’t as simple as it seemed on the surface. Or to further extrapolate possibilities, there was something extremely terrifying here that he hadn’t yet sensed. And Qin Yu wasn’t running away from him, but trying to avoid the great horror that was about to occur!
The Ancient’s heart shrank. Like a bolt of lightning cutting through the fog, his thoughts instantly cleared up. He grasped the key reason for Qin Yu’s crazy storm of attacks and then his sudden retreat…there had to be a problem with the space behind him!
But it was too late to discover all of this now. The Ancient God Spear howled through the air, crashing into that bare space without pause!
In the next moment, endless fear surged up from the depths of the Ancient’s soul. Terror submerged his mind like rough and heavy waves. He had no idea what was hiding there, but he was certain of one thing…it was a great horror that was enough to send him beyond redemption.

He wanted to run away, but just as this thought appeared his entire being was petrified and all strength vanished from his body, leaving him unable to move anymore. This was a kind of absolute suppression of strength, one that surpassed all limits. Even when he was at his peak state he could never have resisted this.
His consciousness blurred and his field of vision started to darken. The Ancient knew that this meant death was about to arrive. He had patiently waited and endured for a million years, but just when he was about to achieve success he actually ended up with such a miserable fate. In fact, he wouldn’t even know how he died.
Qin Yu! It was Qin Yu!
Violent emotions drowned out his mind. The Ancient released the last roar of his life. Then, the 100,000 foot figure formed from his soul shattered into pieces. Those pieces aimed at Qin Yu’s back as they displayed their final life curse…even if his soul perished into nothingness, he would still drag Qin Yu down into the abyss with him!
Qin Yu stood at the edge of the spatial channel. His foot was already raised. He just needed one more step to pass through. But at this moment, he froze in place.
An extreme yin chill, one that seemed to come from an ancient cave of ice, passed through the void around him and entered his body. Qin Yu’s heart nearly stopped beating. He could hear slight crackling sounds in his ears; this was the sound of his blood freezing.
Qin Yu couldn’t turn his head but he could clearly feel a terrifying strength coming from behind him. It was like a raging flow of lava and he was nothing but a tiny and insignificant ant. He didn’t doubt that as long as he was drawn into this strength he would instantly be burnt to ashes. His body and soul would be extinguished with no traces of him left in the world.
He desperately struggled to free himself. His soul roared out in despair and two hearts wildly beat in his chest. His eyes flashed with dark golden light…but in front of absolute strength, all of this was meaningless.
Rumble rumble –
Crashing sounds entered his ears; this was the song of death. The surging strength rapidly approached him.
A trace of bitterness appeared in Qin Yu’s heart. As he thought, borrowing someone’s knife to kill someone else required a certain amount of skill. A single wrong move and everything would fall over.
Qin Yu could feel shocked anger coming from the little blue lamp. It had suddenly sensed the current situation but didn’t have enough time to do anything…moreover, even if it were here, it wouldn’t necessarily be able to block the self-defensive mechanism of the Origin of Rebirth.
In this world, the only strength that one could rely on was a person’s own strength. All others were unreliable – this thought suddenly appeared in Qin Yu’s mind. After it did, all thoughts receded. Unexpectedly, before his death he didn’t think of anything at all.
Perhaps the heavens believed that Qin Yu’s act of not thinking of anything before dying was the greatest blasphemy against death itself. Thus, as the strength of the Origin of Rebirth was just an instant away from him, it came to a sudden stop as if by miracle.
It howled backward and returned. The strong winds caused by this made Qin Yu feel a cool breeze all over his body, but the robes that covered his back were directly erased from existence. Hairs rose up all over him. Only parts of the robe that were close to his skin remained; everything else had thoroughly vanished.
The cut was neat and mirror-smooth!
He hadn’t died…he actually hadn’t died…
After a brief daze, Qin Yu regained his composure. The yin chill in his blood disappeared as if it was never there to begin with. He looked up at the tattered skies and a funny thought appeared in his mind – should he kneel and pray a bit?
“Hey! If you’re in the mood to worship it then why don’t you turn around and kneel to me! Anyhow, I was the one who saved you!”

YAOS 1 - Limitless Adventures - Yet Another OP Story Book 1
December 23rd 2018: Book 1 is now up at Smashwords and at Amazon. December 30th 2018: V1.1.2 of YAOS Book 1 is out, some content additions, fixed typos. Amazon's enhanced typesetting now displays tables properly. YAOS is shown through the eyes of some genius athlete getting OP inside a VR, ah wait, Full Immersion game, ?F.I.O?. Not a Hero, not a Nerd, just a driven individual paying for mistakes made, biding time until he can return to the Real World. He isn't defined like you'd normally do it, you can pick his looks and name all on your own, just like you do in video games. Believe it or not, keeping his looks undefined is harder than you think. His backstory isn't expounded in detail, but it drives his choices. Book 1 isn't about depressing sob stories but about fun and rushing forward, pursuing new horizons. Oh, and you'll end on a cliffhanger! Well, most serials do, so you will probably expect that without being told explicitly. But it isn't that bad, there's a lot of reveals and more to come once this book, that is the first in a planned three-part series, is finally ready for release on amazon et al. The published version will have: 1.) Godawful speaker tags, I hate them, they make you stop thinking and speed up editing so much. In hindsight they should have been in to begin with. But I stand by my goals proclaimed earlier. You guys should think while reading, that is the whole point of the exercise. Apply the knowledge and ideas, improve yourself, get creative! 2.) Pretty colored tables, the damned blue boxes, a lot of work, 69 in one book. Finally fixed amazon's centering issue. Can't say I liked the hours needed to debug that. 3.) The promised Mitara chapters. 4.) A cover! 5.) And lastly, updated polished versions of several chapters. MC shares more of his past, some terrible chapters (esp. 32) finally work. Some new scenes, minor rewrites in parts. Text flow and other issues. The current challenge is to maintain essential ambiguity while satisfying people wanting to know more without thinking three steps ahead. Balancing one with the other is tough. The smut which was in remains, but the story told is not to be superseded by it. A 15+ rating for the first book is also important, not to mention, YAOS wasn't meant to contain any smut to begin with. If the Author can turn to writing full time his output should increase, so please support YAOS #1 once it does finally release. ~Thank You~ No maps so far, that should be in, but is really hard to get done right. Again, tips are appreciated. Update September 2017: Stubbed chapters, sorry guys, currently don't have time to upload them elsewhere, polishing book 1 and 2, writing 3, takes precedence. Book 1 is in heavy editing, too much to keep synced and continuing editing. I'd need a site which offers JS-free rapid managing of chapters and comments. Coding one myself or setting a premade up is out of scope until I'm done with the books. RRL-old offered that, nuff said. This is only here because the author believes in fairies, nobody reads this, most likely. October to December 2017: Life threw some curveballs. February 2018: Book 2 draft 1 completed, at ~150K words. Book 2 is fairly epic in scope, requires 1 rewritten chapter, some editing. Tables and miscellanea are in, but needs at least a grammar pass. March 2018: Book 3 at 28k words, first arc, rest needs serious planning for spin-off and satisfying conclusion. July 2018: Yet another proofing/editing session of books 1-3, 101+ chapters, ~300k words. B3 at 48k, starts out great, but no ETA, no wordcount limit, in flux. But prioritizing my writing cannot be done, I hate the delays as much as you, but you will prefer the whole released in a timely fashion rather than wait. Knowing myself how excruciating waiting can be, at least you'll get significantly polished versions and an ETA on book 2 by release of book 1. December 23rd 2018: Book 1 is now up at Smashwords and in the process at Amazon et. al.. . To all who wait patiently, offered feedback, thanks again!
