Chapter World is Dark . 7 : living with enemy's friend !!

Blessed City

Blessed City is one of the native cities in training dimension. And also top 3 powerhouse when it comes to city power ranking. The city is ruled by Feng clan . The city is larger than Sunshine Empire .

The city has 5 major families that governs the five parts of the city, East is ruled by An family , West is ruled by Rong family , North is ruled by Shi family , South is ruled by Xia family while center is ruled by Honglong family. Honglong family is the direct power working under Feng family and has supreme authority after Feng family in the city.

Today , it was January 03 , month of heavy snowfall in many parts of training dimension while leaving some parts .

on the courtyard of Xia family resident , a young maiden in her 18 , wearing warm animal jacket and muffler around her long and beautiful neck . She was beautiful as moon and pretty as flowers , she has transcendental beauty that didn't belonged to this world. Her long red hairs and red fiery eyes , she was tall and attractive. Her name was Xia Yinling , a 8th Grade Inferior Martial Artist Realm Cultivator. She was sitting on the courtyard while watching the snowfall.

She said with a beautiful smile " this month seem to be heavily snow raining. And it's too cold too " she was the second daughter of clan head . Her first sister name was Xia Yue while her First brother name was Xia Hong . The former was 9th Grade Inferior Stage Martial Asrtist while latter one was 2nd Grade Upper Stage Martial Master. Both were cultivation prodigies .

She was happily enjoying while drinking hot cup of tea. She was the disciple of Blizzard Heart Sect , an Inner Sect Disciple while her sister was also an Inner Disciple but her Brother was a Core Disciple, one step away from Elite Disciple and two step away from Candidate Disciple.

While she was enjoying her time peacefully , suddenly she saw something in front of her . In front of her , space began to change it's trajectory.

" what is going on ?" She frowned after seeing the space changing it's trajectory. She didn't feel any danger so she didn't act rashly but just as she was about to check what was going on ? Suddenly she noticed change in Heaven and Earth energies around her.

"Someone is using an item to teleport here " she suddenly understood what was happening. So she took out a talisman from her sleeve for safety and was on her guard.

After a while , suddenly the space got torn and two figures came out from the space before the space return to normal.

"Ouch !! " those two people made a painful noise before a man's voice echoed in courtyard.

"Damn you woman ,where did you brought me ?" Man Qi , rubbing his butts shouted at Lin Ying. When Lin Ying was about to something , both of them felt very cold.

"It's so cold , fuck !! Damn woman , where did you brought me ?" Looking around , Man Qi found that he was surrounded by snows. He saw Lin Ying and a mysterious lady .

"Who are you ?" Man Qi got on his defense and took few step back in cautious.

Looking at Lin Ying and Man Qi , Xia Yinling asked in a friendly way " judging by your voice ,I assume that you aren't here with ulterior motives. My name is Xia Yinling , may I know what are your names ?"

Man Qi frowned and felt this two women must be messing up with him. Although Xia Yinling was unparalleled beauty , it wasn't even a shit in front of him. He didn't care if she was beauty or ugly , he didn't even thought anything of her beauty.

He was immune to her unparalleled beauty.

He said coldly "hump , why should I tell you my name. Where is this place ?" Listening to him , Xia Yinling was surprised. Until now in her whole life , she has always been praised and complemented for her beauty and no mens could resist her yet this man wasn't even effected by her beauty. Truly strange.

She said in a gentle way " this place is , my Xia family resident's courtyard. And you are the intruder here " she carried a beautiful smile that could seduce anyone's heart like a true enchantress.

Yet , Man Qi thought that she was messing with him. He snorted before spitting "pui , stop smiling at me , I am feeling clichés here ."

Watching him talk rudely with Xia Yinling , Lin Ying hurriedly covered his mouth with her elegant hand and apologised to Xia Yinling " my apologies for his rudeness . My name is Lin Ying while this , my friend name is Man Qi. It seem that we have caused you some trouble so please forgive us. If you don't mind than we can leave from here "

Xia Yinling didn't felt offended by Man Qi's words but instead felt funny . He acted just too cute . She offered them " no , no , it's not your fault. It seem like you two have used a teleportation type item to escape from someone. It will be bad if you two leave right now . Why don't you two stay here for some days ? That is if you two don't mind than ?"

Lin Ying thought for awhile before she cupped her fist and replied " than we shall trouble you for few days "

Xia Yinling didn't worried that if they were assassins or not ? Or will they do something to her or not because her family strength was powerful enough to protect her from any life threatening situations as long as they are in the range of Blessing City.

Man Qi wanted to reject her offer but thought that it would be good to live under someone until he stabilize his Cultivation Foundation. So he didn't reject it .

Xia Yinling left the courtyard , followed by Man Qi and Lin Ying. While on their way , Lin Ying and Man Qi noticed lots of Martial Artist and Martial Masters.

In curiosity , Lin Ying asked " miss Xia , your family seem to be strong. There are many Martial Masters that are in 8th Grade ." She couldn't help but feel sacred by the power of Xia family. In her Sect , even Sect Master is only 6th Grade Martial Master yet the Xia family even has 8th Grade Martial Masters !! How terrifying must be this Xia family ?

With a light laughter , Xia Yinling said to her while walking in hallway " they are all Core members so they will of course be 8th Grade Martial Masters."

"Core Members ?" Man Qi asked in surprise. Xia Yinling replied with a light nod " yes ,Core members. While our Elite members are all Grandmaster Realm cultivators. "

Both Lin Ying and Man Qi cried in surprise " Grandmaster Realm !!" Did they just heard something more amazing than Martial Master Realm ?

Watching them both surprised , Xia Yinling was confuse . She nodded before telling them in stunned voice " yes , Grandmaster Realm. Is there anything wrong ?"

Lin Ying hastily shook her head before she asked " no ,no ,no ,can you, can you tell me the cultivation levels that exists in this place ?" Until now , she has only seen Martial Master Realm Cultivators as the strongest so this sudden information was just too much for her to digest. Even Man Qi got interest in this topic.

Watching their impatient expressions , Xia Yinling explained them calmly and also in confusion by their expressions " in our city , there exists 4 Cultivation Realms . Martial Artist Realm , Martial Master Realm , Grandmaster Realm and Spirit Realm . Until Grandmaster Realm , there exist 9 Grades and 4 Stages . While from Spirit Realm , there are only 3 - 4 Stages we don't have any Spirit Realm Cultivator in our family so that is the reason to not be strong as Feng family. But one day I shall become a Spirit Realm Cultivator. I heard that Spirit Realm Cultivator could live for 3000 years and have power to even destroy a small mountains. "

This sudden information got Lin Ying and Man Qi's tongues tied . So this is what the idiom means when they say " there is Heaven above Heaven ".

Both of them looked at each others. While Man Qi couldn't help but think 'father said that my mother has already transcended from the mortal world . So how strong is she ?'

He asked Xia Yinling "than what is after Spirit Realm ? Do you know ?" Xia Yinling thought before she said " I am not sure if its true or not but according to the legends , there are Enlightenment Realm and Dao Realm after Spirit Realm . But that's just a legend . Not proven until now "

Man Qi nodded . While Lin Yinling also nodded slightly.

"My father isn't here today neither does my mother and siblings so you can use the guest room for tonight . "Xia Yinling said with a beautiful smile .

Man Qi nodded and didn't bother to talk anymore. While Lin Ying kept on talking with her . After a while , Xia Yinling and the other 2 reached a yard with small yet beautiful log house.

There was a huge tree and beneath the tree was a small pond. Pointing at the log house , Xia Yinling said " this will be your house for time being , until you stay here , Please use it ." Man Qi walked and opened the wooden door.

"Creak" the door opened and he saw beautifully decorated room . There were many furniture and decoration placed. Turning to look at Xia Yinling , he asked " there is only one room , how can I live with this woman here . I want separate room " he pointed at Lin Ying and said.

Xia Yinling scratched her cheek and said with a wryly way " although it's only one room house , it still has two separate beds , so you don't need to worry "

Man Qi just turned around and entered the house . Lin Ying looked at Xia Yinling and said " I thank you for letting us stay here for time being. And please don't let his rudeness get in your heart . He is always like this , so please don't mind him "

"Hehe…" Xia Yinling said as she giggled " you don't have to worry about it . In fact , I think he is very interesting guy . Oh , how about I show you our Southern City . Do you want to walk around the city ? "

Lin Ying gladly took her offer and went with Xia Yinling to tour around the Southern City.

While in mean time , Man Qi sat on the bed with his leg crossed and eyes shut after consuming some pills . Those pills were [ Foundation Strengthening Pill ] and [ Spiritual Root Refining Pill ]. An Azure Aura surrounded him and began to refine his Spiritual Root and strengthen his Cultivation Foundation.

His whole body felt like it was going under transformation , veins began to appear all over his body.

Clenching his teeth , he bit his lower lips until it began to bleed.

"Zzz" electric current like zaps began to coat his body . His Cultivation Foundation and Spiritual Root were unstable so he was stabilizing then .

Badum !! Badum !! Badum !! Badum !!

His blood circulation began to increase while his every single 361 Cultivation meridians began to twist around.

"Roar—" he opened his mouth , but the cry of a dragon was heard from him. His every single meridians began to transform , layers of dragon scales began to appear on his meridians which strengthen his meridians greatly.

'Remember , after taking [ Foundation Strengthening Pill ] and [ Spiritual Root Refining Pill ] , your unstable cultivation will go under change and began to stabilize . When your foundation is stabilizing , be sure to use [ Blood Refining Pill ] and [ Body and Soul Nourishing Pill ] because at that time your whole body will be subconsciously using a mysterious power known as [ Yuan ]. This power will only remain until your body is going trough changes . So don't waste your time and consume them. It will help you at least greatly increase the effects of pills . And without waiting for any second , use [ Martial Spirit Awakening Pill ] . With the increase of [ Yuan ] in your body and soul , you will have better chance of awakening a very powerful Martial Spirit. ' that's what Kai had told him.

He hurriedly took out two pills from his Spatial Ring and consumed them .

"Boom" he felt like in his Bloodsea , a place in his body where his Blood Essence is stored got a huge explosion.

Inside his Bloodsea , his every single Blood Essence began to twist and turned into small storm. They began to slowly covered into Azure Aura before they were divided into two drops of bloods and floated around his Bloodsea and now there were 2 drops of mysterious bloods floating around his Bloodsea .

While his bones began to crack and melt into liquid . The [ Yuan ] began to fuse with [ Body and Soul Nourishing Pill ] .He felt his whole inner organs getting cut.

"Cough * " he coughed mouthful of bloods and fell down from the bed before hitting the floor.

"Cough * " bloods after bloods , vomiting violently , he clutched his stomach and clenched his fists tightly.

His eyes were unyielding and his Will power was immovable.

His skins began to crack and shatter along with his whole body . His black hairs were falling from his head. His whole body was shattering like a glass . He hurriedly took out [ Martial Spirit Awakening Pill ] and consumed it . His body was currently flowing with strong [ Yuan ] so the pill effect was multiplied by greatly.

Slowly his whole body was turned into piece of glasses and turned into liquid before disappearing from the world.

Silence , nothing was left for him . His existence was gone.

The world has no idea about his disappearance.

But suddenly , from the earth , Spiritual powers began to appear and gather into one place before they formed into humanoid shape. A new life began to born . The lost body and soul began to gather and fuse with the new life .

Legs , arms , head , hairs and a new human body was created within a minute. Man Qi was standing naked with his body exposed. He was tall , 5.9 feet tall and handsome with no scars from before. His body and muscles were that of a monsters , layers of lines could be seen around his skins , and if you were to look closely you would notice those lines were shaped in a scales. On his back was an Inscription drawn . The Inscription was very mysterious ,the Inscription was round and had a single eye in the middle while countless words writing on the surface . The Inscription was linked with lines and those lines were moving all around his body . Those lines were even connected to his chest . And at the middle of his chest was another round Inscription . Those lines were also on his neck , reaching his both eyes . Running from his both cheeks , they were connected with his eyes. His eyes were Azure and his hairs too , hairs were long.

His arms were also covered with those lines and reached back of his palm with a round seals on them.

Those all lines were Azure in colours. even his legs were covered in those lines and under his foots were those seals .

He felt his whole body was surging with immense amount of powers and strength .

After his Cultivation Foundation was stable , his cultivation roses to Peak Level. Meaning 9th Grade Superior Stage Martial Artist !!

"Ah !!" Crossing his arms around , he suddenly stretched them on his sides and cried out loud .

"ROOOOOAAAARR" a huge dragon roar echoed all around the yard which even shook the Xia Resident .

From his behind , 20 meter tall incorporeal Azure Dragon with Azure Dragon Scales and two horns on his head appeared. The dragon wasn't from China style but from Japan . Body of lizard , four legs , long tail and dragon scales with pair of gigantic wings.

His eyes burned and an Azure Flame lit up . His body lines and Inscriptions with seals began to lit in Azure Light. His body began to get covered in Azure Flame .

Raising his right arm up , he watched his right fist . Clenching tightly ,he felt his strength amplified by countless time . This Inscription was just too monstrous. Suddenly he felt groups of people marching toward him.

With a light smile , he said " they must have noticed the commotion in here. I can feel that there are 3rd Grade Inferior and Superior Martial Masters. With my current strength , I can easily kill 2nd Grade Martial Master , and using my Martial Spirit , 3rd Grade would be no problem but it's only a theory. So I have to do it practically. Let's see how strong I have grown ?"with that he walked out and saw hundreds of Xia family guards around. Man Qi was only wearing a black trouser because he didn't thought shirts was that important.

There were 90 of Martial Masters in 2nd Grade while 7 of in 3rd Grade Inferior Stage while 2 in Upper Stage and 1 in Superior Stage.

Xia Jin , looked at Man Qi and suddenly remembered that young miss has brought some guest in Xia family resident so he cupped his fist and greeted " greeting guest , we are sorry for causing the commotion here. But we thought that there was an enemy attack so we had to mobilise the forces here. If you were disturbed by us , I would like to apologise in behalf of everyone here " he was a middle age man and worked as a guard in Xia family.

Watching him , Man Qi said " you are strong. You see , I have just now had a breakthrough in my cultivation. If you don't mind than can you order your mens to have a spare with me . And also everyone should come at me at once ."

With a looks of surprise , Xia Jin looked Man Qi and and asked " dear guest , don't joke around. You are only a 9th Grade Martial Artist . Although you are even monstrous than our young master , you are still not a Martial Master so how can you fight with us ?"

Man Qi didn't mind him and said with a smile " just shut up and do as I said . I am the guest here so it is your duty to fulfil my needs. Isn't it ?"

Xia Jin looked at Man Qi and realised this kid was just too stubborn and wouldn't listen to him so he looked at his side and ordered to one of his mens " you , go and have a friendly spare with our guest. Be sure not to hurt him "

The guard was only 2nd Grade Inferior Stage Martial Master . He cupped his fists and said " as you command leader " with that he walked to Man Qi . Man Qi watched the guard and smiled , mocking the guard.

The guard was offended , he was 2nd Grade Martial Master but today a mere Martial Artist was mocking him. He stood in front of Man Qi and said " dear guest , seeing your 9th Grade Superior Stage Martial Artist Cultivation , I will lower my cultivation to your level so you would not feel like you were bullied "

Man Qi snorted coldly before he said " enough, come at me with your full strength or you will loose your life "

With a light frown , the guard felt that this kid was just too arrogant. So he didn't waste his time on nonsense and said " than here I come " with that his whole body burst in Spiritual Energy . He shifted his body and left a cracks on the ground before appearing in front of Man Qi.

Man Qi just smiled , with a boom , his face was hit by the guard's fist .

Huge gales of wind blew and both of their hairs fluttered in the air .

Everyone thought that Man Qi would be heavily injured even though the guard didn't killed him but they were left disappointed cause Man Qi was still standing on his previous place .

Instead , the guard that hit Man Qi on his face was beginning to cry out in pain .

"Ah " he just felt like he has hit the mountain with his insufficient strength. When he was crying in pain , his teams were confuse thinking what just happened.

Grabbing the guard's head , Man Qi gave a cold smile " told you " with that he pushed the guard's head down and the face hit the ground.

"Boom" a huge destructive print appeared on the ground as the guard fainted from the pain . Patting his hands , Man Qi watched the remaining guards.

"Everyone , come at me at once !!"

While on the another side

Zian Di , Ang Ann , Ram Ri , Cang Zi and Yang Shi were walking at unknown place filled with huge trees and hills. They were surely walking in the middle of the forest, at least according to their guess .

"Brother Yang , I am tired. Can't we just rest somewhere for a while ?" Zian Di asked while feeling tired . They had been killing monsters and wild beasts on their journey so everyone were tired right now .

Yang Shi thought that they were almost out of their energy so he nodded and said " you are right , we have been walking and killing monsters without rest . So let's rest for now "

Deciding to rest for now ,everyone sat down and began to rest .

Falling down on the ground , everyone were exhausted. Even Cang Zi and Yang Shi were very tired . Almost out of their energies.

" this training dimension is just too terrifying. For an ordinary talents like me ,I am not suited to train here " Zian Di said while lying on the ground

"Yes , we are not meant for this world " even Ang Ann had to admit it . This world was like Hell for them and with limitations for them.

"Where the heck are others. At this time ,brother Man Qi and Kai should have been with us . But where are they? Also sister Suxin is also not here " Cang Zi also felt helpless and wished that others were by their side.

Yang Shi just focused on replenishing his energy and said nothing but he too was feeling helpless.

When they were resting , they suddenly felt someone's presence. Groups of people were approaching toward them.

"Everyone , get ready. Some groups are approaching to us " Yang Shi warned everyone.

Heeding his warning , everyone stood up and got on their battle positions. But when the second groups approached them , they were surprised to find out that they were the familiar people.

"You —" both side cried in surprise. The second group that arrived just now were all tired and were exhausted too. No less than Yang Shi group.

Both groups were injured and exhausted.

"How are you guys here ?" Yang Shi asked in surprise. While the second group , the leader replied " we were searching for sister Lin Ying so we are here " of course this group belonged to Wong Qi and his party. He asked " and how are you all here ?"

Yang Shi sighed and said " we were separated from our others after we fought with groups of mutant beasts " Wong Qi nodded in understanding. But Yang Shi and his party noticed some few unfamiliar faces behind Wong Qi groups.

" who are they ? " Yang Shi asked . Wong Qi looked at 3 people behind him and replied " they are our friends that we made in our way . They were stuck in fighting with bunch of mutant beasts so we helped them. " pointing toward tall and firm looking man . He was wearing long Yellow Robe , Wong introduced him to Yang Shi and others " his name is Lin Sheng , disciple from Dragon Land Sect . "

Pointing toward a very beautiful lady , she was also wearing same robe as former one , Wong Qi introduced her to others " this beautiful lady name is Xin Qi Tian. " when Yang Shi looked at her , Xin Qi Tian playfully blinked at him which caused his heart to flutter in shy . Xin Qi Tian gently giggled watching his flushed expression.

Yang Shi said " looks , looks lik miss Xin Qi Tian is very bold person " Xin Qi Tian only smiled in reply . While Wong Qi also had to admit that she was just too bold

And finally he introduced the last person that looked similar to Xin Qi Tian but was in male version " his name is Xin Tian , younger brother of miss Xin Qi Tian"

Yang Shi just nodded while his eyes was still on Xin Qi Tian. Watching him , Zian Di teased him " bold enough to glare at beauty . Isn't this rude ?"

Yang Shi smiled embarrassed but Xin Qi Tian was truly a beauty . A masterpiece from Heaven
