"You have to wait, Liu Man. You have been the voice of reason till now. You have to understand. I cannot go through the gate now. I will go through it soon enough though. Just wait." I shook my head.
"I will trust you to get stronger. I have helped you, and I trust you to do the same." Liu Man said.
"What has gotten into him?" I wondered. But it was not time to worry about all that. It was time to rest. I had a long day ahead of me.
Boom!
"What was that?" I stood up with shock. I looked around with confusion.
The door of my residence caved in. Cracks appeared all over it.
"Someone is attacking me!" I realized as my spear appeared in my hands from the spatial ring. I pointed it towards the door.
Boom!
The door broke open, and I could finally see who it was that was trying to come in.
"You dare try to threaten me with your puny background, you fool? Do you think that I don't know who you are. Your father is just a cripple, like you will be now. How dare you try to blackmail me into letting things go." the man who came in looked at me with rage.
His eyes looked like they were burning up, and his fists were covered in an ethereal fire.
"Mind Eye!" I whispered.
"Level - 15
Name - Hua Bolin
Cultivation - Foundation Establishment Stage Peak"
"He is at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage? He is too strong for me to face now. I need to escape." I realized.
"Where do you think you are going?" Deacon Hua's voice appeared in front of me. He stood in the direction that I was about to escape off to.
"He is too fast as well!" I was in big trouble now.
I took a step back. Looking around, I was trapped. There was literally nowhere that I could go. He cut off all my forms of escape, and the ceiling was also blocked, so I couldn't fly out.
"What are you going to do? You want to get into trouble all for a weapon? Don't you think that is a little outrageous? The elders will not leave you be." I said, trying to scare him.
"You said it yourself. The elders would only care if this was in the first week. After that, do you really think that they would give two hoots about some new disciple that came in?" the deacon laughed like a maniac.
"Great. Now, I am dealing with a psycho." I shook my head.
Hua Bolin's figure disappeared, and he reappeared just inches away from my face. I was biweldered by his speed. Before I could even attack, I could feel his fist connect with my torso.
Cough!
I coughed out blood, but did not even move from my place. The impact of the fist went entirely into my chest. I collapsed into the ground barely able to breath.
"Thank god I am wearing that armor. Or else, I would have died. But his attack is too powerful. The armor cracked. It will not last another attack." I muttered to myself. I could not move.
He took one more step, and his feet were above my face.
"Let us see, what would happen if I were to crush your dantian? Then, you would go back to being the idiot young master that you always were. Let us see that happening, shall we?" the deacon laughed.
I could see his foot approaching my chest. This was something that I could no longer dodge. This was truly life threatening now.
"Stop!" I shouted with all my effort. My forehead hurt. I felt a splitting headache. I could hear a ringing sound, and the sound of th crashing waves that deafened me in the Spirit Jade pool weeks before.
"What are you doing? You brute forced a spiritual attack? How did you do that?" I heard a sound come from where Hua Bolin was supposed to stand. But this voice was not of Hua Bolin.
I opened my eyes again, and saw that Hua Bolin was no longer above me. I rose up to see that he was on the ground, unconscious. And crouched next to him was a young man that I did not recognize.
"How did you do that? You used a spiritual attack. That is something that can only be done by those who opened their spirit sea. Did you open your spirit sea?" the young man asked.
"Who are you?" I asked, crawling backwards. I was too weak to stand up. I could still feel my internal organs reeling from the attack by the deacon.
"I am your Senior Brother. Now, your turn. How the hell did you do that?"
"I don't know. I was in a life threatening situation. The body does wonders at times like these. I don't know how I survived. But now that he is unconscious, I think that it is time for a little payback?" I said, struggling to get up.
I took out a few pills from my spatial ring and popped them in my mouth. For some reason, although I could feel them relieve me of my pain, I felt tired. Immeasurably tired.
"You must be feeling swamped. That is what happens when you use your spiritual energy without any guidance or technique. I am surprised that you are still awake." the young man said.
"Move." I said with a hoarse voice as I barely stood up. I inched closer to Hua Bolin. This bastard was aiming to cripple me. I had to cripple him now. I could not just let enemies get away like this.
"I am afraid that I cannot let you do that. As a core disciple, I am not going to let a Deacon lose his cultivation." the young man shook his head as he stood in front of me.
"He tried to kill me. I am a disciple of the sect as well. Where was your righteousness then?" I raised my eyebrows.
"I was waiting." the core disciple shook his head.
"Waiting for what?"
"Orders from the elder. Whether to let you die or not." the core disciple smiled, and I could see the same craziness and killing intent that I felt before.
I was utterly screwed.
