"WHERE IS… THAT BASTARD… LI" the big muscular man shouted and his group of disciples frantically destroyed the garden of the Soaring Sea Sect.
"I-Isn't he Yan Ming from the Heavenly Sword Sect?" one of the surrounding soaring sea sect disciples recognized the muscular man.
"WHO??"
"He just started cultivating yet he is one of the strongest in Heavenly Sword Sect. Rumors has it that he is genius who can ascend to immortal realm just in couple of years."
"I heard that even if he's at peak of core formation stage he can defeat his senior who's at mid of soul formation stage."
"WHAT!!"
"seriously? He's a monster."
"But why is he looking for brother Li?"
"AHHH! Why does he have to come when the master and senior brother Feng and senior brother Qian is not here."
The disciple spoke to each other as they watched Heavenly Sword Sect destroyed their sect. Among them, Yan Ming stood out as he walked toward Ying Yue and Li.
"Are you Li?" Yan Ming released his domineering aura. Everyone including his group member was scared yet Zheng couldn't even feel his aura.
Yang Yue also released her aura, almost as equal as of Yan Ming. The intense pressure from their aura had the dirt swirled around them.
Yang Yue gathered Qi around her fist and attacked Yan Ming and he countered Yang Yue's attack by releasing his spiritual energy which pushed Yang Yue few feet away.
"Yang Yue, are you okay?" Li rushed to her side.
"Is she the best Soaring Sea Sect has?" Yan Ming laughed as he stepped toward Yang Yue and Li.
Zheng blocked Yan Ming's path, halting him in his step.
The disciple from both the sect were shocked looking at Zheng's action. Who is he? Does he have a death wish? Isn't he the man who was with brother Li?
"Please leave." Zheng calmly requested Yan Ming to back off.
"YO-YOU…I WILL KILL YOU." Yan Ming roared, releasing his aura once again.
However, his threatening words, Zheng simply stood between them without even releasing his aura.
"You fucking bastard." Yan Ming gathered all his Qi in the air and released all at once, intended to finish Zheng in one swipe move yet Zheng was unfazed even after he took the attack head on.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Veins appeared across Yan Ming's arm, his confidence turned into his doubt. "YOU! YOU ARE DEAD!!" he once again gathered his Qi, this time covering his fist and launched toward Zheng.
In the midst of his attack, he felt chill down his spin, snapping him back to the reality. Suddenly he found himself lying on the ground under the horrifying gaze of Zheng, solely intended at him.
"Hmph. You are not even worth attacking." Zheng casually walked back to help Yang Yue.
As soon as Zheng turned around, Yan Ming scrambled on his hand and knee. And other member of Heavenly Sword Sect followed him in confusion rather fear.
"what just happened?" the disciple of Soaring Sea Sect spoke to each other, trying to understand the situation.
Yan Ming stopped after reaching a safe distance, catching his breath. Zheng's horrifying reappeared in his mind and murmured to himself. He's not human, I couldn't even feel his energy yet his gaze was horrifying enough to make me wet myself, all my senses are telling to run from him.
"Brother Yan Ming? Why did we suddenly run away?"
His body still shaking, sweat running down his body, he said. "He's a monster, there's no way I can fight him."
"Are you okay?" Zheng placed his hand on Yang Yue and helped her heal by using his own spiritual energy.
"Thank you."
Yang Yue initially thought that Zheng wanted to start cultivation but she noticed that Zheng defeated Yan Ming without even releasing his aura, making her suspect Zheng and her suspicion grew even larger after he healed her.
"You are not a beginner but a master."
Zheng thought to himself. I'm at the peak of immortal god stage but considering that in mortal realm people are scared of some core formation stage cultivator, there aren't many that has ascended to immortal stage let alone peak of immortal god stage. Before I can reveal myself, I need to confirm something.
"haha… I just happened to know few things."
"but you just won against Yan Ming and healed Yang Yue too."
"You are so young, you probably can't be a master. Right?"
The disciples swarmed Zheng, asking all sort of question and envying his victory over Yan Ming, leaving Zheng confused by their comment.
Yang Yue ordered other disciple to continue with their practice as she took Zheng to show him his room.
Upon reaching the living quarter within the outer court of the sect, Yang Yue opened a door to a dusty room and handed the key to Zheng.
"Ahh... Sorry. We don't have many students so it's a mess."
"So, tell me about the sect."
"Soaring Sea Sect was founded my grandfather 30 years ago. My father took over the sect 4 years ago after my grandfather passed away."
"This sect has been for over decades but there's not many students."
"That's because my father and I moved in after my grandfather passed away and not many acknowledges my father. At one point, we didn't have any student."
"Why?"
"My grandfather was ranked top in Lone state and my father couldn't reach up to his level so, one by one everyone left. But there's few students now. I don't know what Li said to them, after Li joined other gradually followed in. Even two who left retuned."
"Who is Li anyway?"
"Li? He was first to join after everyone left. And my father treats him like a son as he saved our sect from being taken over by Heavenly Sword Sect, that's why they always target us."
"Cleaning's all done, if you need any think come find me."
"Yang Yue?"
"Thank you… for letting me in and helping to clean the room."
Once he's alone, he sat on the ground and started to absorb the spiritual energy. The environment began to change around the world, the sky roared with thunder, the trees shook viciously, the birds flew in all direction, the leaders of different sect issued an order to investigate the source of this phenomenon.
And the world knew some extraordinary master has risen.
