Sin jumped down from the tree, shook his head violently and slapped his face multiple times. "Get yourself together Sin, this isn't the person you are!"
Sin quickly went back into the cabin quietly and left a note for Nora. [I am outside in the back training, come get me when you wake up, I will make breakfast for us.]
Sin left the cabin quietly and began constructing the rest of his training paradise.
Four hours passed in the blink of an eye, and the sun had already risen. Claiming its existence and authority, looking down on all present in this world.
Since Nora hadn't awoken yet, Sin decided to get a head start with training. Stripping all his clothes except for his pants, Sin made his way over to a forest of swinging wood logs.
Sin had constructed auto moving mechanical devices, each of these devices had fine steel wire nailed into the wooden logs. On top of the logs were 200 pound boulders, increasing the momentum and weight.
Besides these boulders and logs of wood, Sin set up an array of fine steel wire into formations. If Sin couldn't handle the blows and was knocked backwards, his flesh and bones would be shredded by the steel wire.
Sin moved in front of a log, his leg purposely tripped another set of wires. This let go of some restraints on the mechanism, the log tripled in speed smashing into Sins upper body.
Sin heard the sound of his bones shattering, then moments later, the essence of Rebirth pervaded his bones. Healing and strengthening them instantaneously. Sin took another strike this time, there was one single bone left un-shattered. Before the essence could properly heal Sin, the log sped up again, smashing into Sin and sending him flying through a spider web of fine steel wire. All the flesh and bones on Sins back, down to his ankles had been shredded through.
The essence of Rebirth this time was double the amount than before. This further proved Sins theory, the closer to death he was. The more benefits he would gain from the essence of Rebirth.
Another three hours passed, not once did Sin grunt, or yell from the pain. Nora came out yawning, when she saw the sight of Sins body shredded through. Nora screamed in fright.
"Uncle Sin, you're so badly injured! Let me patch you up."
Then in front of her very own eyes, Nora saw a golden aura surge from within Sins body. All the exterior, and interior injuries had been healed instantly.
Sin walked out of his forest of bone shredding as he coined it. With a towel in his hand wiping all the sweat off his body.
"How did you sleep last night Nora?" Sin asked as he sat down beside her on the back deck he built.
"I was so tired after uncle's training, even now I feel like my body is made up of lead."
Sins hand shot out, hitting, massaging and stimulating various pressure points. Nora's face immediately calmed as the stress was lifted.
"Well what would you like for breakfast Nora?" Sin asked
Nora's eyes lit up at the mention of Sins offer.
"I want uncles bacon, eggs, home fries with juice and fruit!" Nora shouted out with excitement and a rumbling stomach.
Sin went into the cabin, and thirty minutes later breakfast was prepared. Sin and Nora sat at the table to eat together. This was a tradition Sin brought from Earth. While they didn't need to eat as they began their cultivation, good food was always a way to bring friends and family together.
After finishing breakfast, Sin and Nora went out to Sins training grounds. Nora looked at all the mechanisms and training units with hard to conceal curiosity. Nora curiously reached her hand out touching the mechanisms. When Sin heard the sound of a sharp "Twang!" The first thought that came to his mind was. "Fuck me."
Sin appeared in front of Nora, four dozen arrows now stuck out of Sins body making him look like a porcupine. Sin didn't rebut Nora, nor scold her, but with a calm voice Sin said.
"Be careful Nora, there are plenty of dangers the moment you move past the deck."
Nora looked at Sin frightened and with a timid voice she said. "I'm sorry uncle, I promise it wasn't on purpose!"
After ripping the arrows out of himself, Sin washed the tips off and reloaded the empty storage. Walking forward to Nora and kneeling down in front of her, Sin patted Nora's head with affection.
"It is okay Nora, it's not your fault." Sin then pointed at his chest and said. "Look, no injuries are left on my body. I wasn't hurt in the least bit."
Nora finally cheered up after Sin confirmed over and over again he was okay. After that, Sin started training Nora. Nora showed excellent results, after just learning the basics of swordsmanship the other day. Nora had already made as much progress as Lan did within three weeks, but only within one day. Sin was thoroughly shocked and pleased by this, Nora was a little sword monster and Sin was going to do all he could to carefully refine this diamond.
After three hours passed, Alaris had returned with over 7,500 Master, 4,000 Grand Master, and 25 Saint Ranked professed personnel of the Fairy Clan. After their Mana surged out, seeing the 30 miles behind Sins and Noras cabin. Their jaws widened uncontrollably almost almost hitting the ground.
"Holy fuck! This is a land of pure and utter madness" The various Fairies exclaimed in groups, even the Grand Masters who had a firm mentality got cold chills.
Upon seeing the look on the various faces. Sin smiled as he declared loudly.
"I am sure Alaris had filled you in on my circumstances. All of you who have agreed to come here, training begins immediately. I am your dummy, all of you may use any and all of your abilities to grind with my body."
The moment Sin finished his statement, one of the Saint Rank elders appeared before Sin. The elders hand chopped down slowly, but the feeling Sin got was as if the sky was falling upon his shoulders. After the attack connected, a huge "BOOM!" resounded as Sin was blown by 350 feet and through many steel wire spiderwebs.
To everyone's surprise, they saw the nearly severed right part of Sins body reconnect. Then the various broken bones, and various holes in Sins body regenerated at a speed that was conceivable by the eyes. Within fifteen seconds, Sin was whole again without any scar tissue or fractures.
"Again! No sleep for the wicked respected elders, all of you had better come at me with all you got until you drop dead from exhaustion!"
Sin flashed into the crowd of elders at amazing speed, despite his only current 10 points for each attribute, Sin still had his insane abilities that could produce heaven defying results. Sins hand chopped at one of the elders jugular, the elders hand grabbed out locking Sins fist into submission. Then with his own fist, smashed out into Sins body multiple times. Each attack felt like it was Sins own Thunder Lords Descent smashing into his body. However, Sin was all smiles and pumped up like a maniac. Just from these few rounds, the efficiency had already passed what Sin had gained for the previous three hours.
Magic, swords, fists, elbows, legs, sabers, spears, formations all descended upon Sin, no matter how the elders tried to kill Sin with their techniques. It was impossible, Sin recovered immediately afterwards and was more robust than before his regeneration. The elders were frightened, but their eyes also blazed with excitement. What Alaris had told them was true, they could truly hone their abilities without any real harm.
Sins voiced yelled out to the Masters and Grand Masters. "The fuck are you all standing around for? Make yourselves useful and get your asses into this mix now!"
While Sin was being bombarded by tens of thousands of attacks every second, the Dragon essence, and Rebirth essence went into overdrive. Sins body was constantly being enhanced and regenerating at massive speeds. The massive amount of Chaos energy reserves were also playing their part, Sin was truly a cockroach in every similarity.
Sin had decided to spice things up, during the massive beating he was taking, Rebirth trial clouds had appeared over him in the sky. The period of time would last for three hours, and was just like the very first trial he had gone through. There was the physical, mental, spiritual, and emotional aspect to it. The second stage of the Ancient Manual Of Rebirths trial wasn't as forgiving. If Sin slipped up for even a second, he would be struck dead by the trials thunder.
However, if Sin were to succeed. This would truly be a huge blessing, with four massive components refining his very being, repairing his cultivation, and fighting to his heart's content with 11,525 Master Rank professed experts and above. Sins progress would sky rocket to unimaginable heights over a prolonged period of time.
Nora was practicing the fundamentals while all of these Masters, Grand Masters and Saints pummeled Sin with all of their abilities. Alaris was watching Sins figure with hazy eyes, only she could understand the reasons why Sin was doing such a crazy thing. This made her heart throb more and more as she thought about it. To redeem himself as a man, bearing the weight of this pain alone.
Sin had moved further into the depths of this land of torture he created. While doing so, Sin had yelled out all the instructions to avoid these helpers from being accidentally injured. Sin unsheathed Kaiser and began grinding his fundamentals against Grand Master Ranked Swordsman. This was his only regret out of the group of people here. There was no Saint Rank Swordsman present.
Despite all of these factors, and his near unending supply of energy. After two and a half hours, Sin was finally starting to feel exhausted. The Rebirth trials truly broke one down to their very lowest, then elevated them to the highest after passing.
Everyone present was stunned, this fiend had finally started to slip up and make mistakes in his posture and attacks. But what was even more shocking, over 4,000 people had already been completely drained unable to move a finger. Whereas Sin was only starting to reach that point.
When there was only fifteen minutes left of the Rebirth trial, fifteen clouds appeared in the sky. All of them began raining hell down on Sin the moment they appeared. Sin found he could no longer control the trial like he was before. Sin hurriedly yelled out to everyone.
"Get out of here immediately! I am no longer able to control this last part of my trial."
Sure enough as testament to Sins words, a bolt of lightning struck down, severely injuring and nearly taking the life of a Saint elder. Seeing this, everyone escaped in all directions at top speed.
Sin activated the Withering Sword Dance, holding Kaiser with both hands. Sin held his ground as he severed each bolt of lightning that struck down. Merala had manifested once again to his left and his would be daughter to his right. This time, Sin was well prepared and wouldn't be shaken again. Despite their endless attacks, distraction and pulling at his heart strings. Sins will stayed sharp like a sword, unwilling to lose sight of himself.
Soon five minutes quickly passed by, 25 more trial clouds appeared. This time, the lightning bolts had taken the shape as Dragons. The more Sin raged and fought back, the stronger they became. After no longer being able to fend himself anymore, Sin was blasted backwards as various lightning Dragons surrounded him.
Sin forcefully stabilized and shot forward again, this time Sins eyes started to light up like the lightning in the sky. Sins hair spiked as it stood on end like a porcupine. A glob of violent lightning shot out, then Sin reached out and absorbed it into himself. Racing forward Sin had begun his desperate fight against the Rebirth trial.
[Mystic Sorcery: Lightning Grand Cross!]
Ever since absorbing the Rebirth essence, Sin had felt a feeling of similarity to his Mystic Energy. Finally capitalizing on the moment, Sin followed his gut feeling and found out to his surprise he could use Mystic Sorcery again. This had thrilled Sin, it was like that feeling of losing your favorite game, and then you find it years down the road.
With the aid of his Mystic Sorcery now, Sins eyes lit up once again as he used Mystic Unity. The feeling of being in control of his own power washed over Sin all over again. Sins exhaustion quickly recovered from his overwhelming excitement taking over.
For the remaining period of time, Sin fought back against the Rebirth trial with all he had. With each passing minute, 25 more trial clouds appeared. While Sin had narrowly avoided dying on multiple occasions, Sins battle lust which had been dormant for so long reawakened. Sins aura shot through the sky, cleaving through many trial clouds.
"A mere trial dares to try and take away my life? How laughable, I will tear all trials asunder within my path!"
Sin roared defiantly as Kaiser began changing into the Great Sword form.
Seeing the clouds multiply and the various dragons rage at Sins insolence. The Rebirth trials had a mind of their own, and none throughout history who dared to curse it survived.
The lightning Dragons began combining into one body. After the fusion was completed, a massive lightning Dragon hovered in mid air, within its claws a thin sword radiating black lightning was held.
"Foolish human, I have given you the chance to inherit my Ancient Manual Of Rebirth. Your audacity to defy my will through your trials is superb. However, right now you're still a cripple who has only gained a meager inkling of Rebirth essence. I will strike you down, and make you learn your place!"
The lightning Dragon held its sword with both hands. A formation appeared hovering behind it, a black-purple Yin and Yang symbol began taking shape.
"I do not wish to kill, but to put you in your place for your following trials. If you can manage to withstand this, I will make your true Rebirth upgrade by one tier. What do you say Wolf King Sin, do you take my bet?"
Sin smiled hearing the provocation in the lightning Dragons voice. "It's normally me provoking my opponents, not the other way around. But no matter, I will tear you asunder!"
Sins aura surged another notch, a large pair of pristine white wings spread out from Sins back. The bandage from the end of Kaisers hilt wrapped around Sins arm all the way up his forearm. A golden Emperor aura covered Sins body in a battle robe. A wall of lightning surged out of Sins body, expanding over 200 meters in height and length.
The lightning Dragon looked at Sin appreciatively. "You're truly worth investing in human. Ever since I began watching your performances at Desolate Kingdom, I have had this feeling I would be connected to your rehabilitation. It seems I wasn't wrong. Do not let the Rebirth Ancestress down, she is a wicked woman from outside of the System we are trapped within!
The lightning Dragon got into a stance focused purely on attack. Its black lightning also surged out of its body, creating a massive wall of lightning as it stood separate from Sin.
Sin and the lightning Dragon raced towards each other immediately. Lightning covered the blade of Kaiser, as the word Emperor appeared on its blade.
[Sky Conqueror: Empress Lightning Blade!]
[Lightning Form: Thunder Clap Of Bronte!]
Both attacks met each other full power, as their walls of lightning energy collided with a resounding clap of thunder.
Thankfully before the attacks collided, the lightning Dragon had sealed Sin and itself in an independent formation. That however, wasn't enough to stop the loud explosion of the shockwaves.
Everyone within the surrounding 2,000 kilometres of the Fairy Clans land went deaf hearing the massive explosion.
After the effects of the attack displayed itself, Sin and the lightning Dragons weapon had pierced through each other.
Both of them smiled to each other
"Not bad for a human, I will keep my word." The lightning Dragon then disappeared.
Despite the brutal exchange of attacks, Sin had instantly regenerated again to top shape. Looking around at the shocked looks of everyone present. Sin who was bursting full of energy again asked aloud.
"Who wants to continue grinding?"
After being nearly beaten to death 30,000 times in one day. Sin had finally thrown in the towel for the day, 11,525 Master and above experts left this part of the land exhausted. They quickly used what energy was left inside their bodies, building various cabins, and simple houses with the most basic necessities to save travel time between large distances.
Sin cooked a massive dinner for him and Nora. After spending over 2 hours cooking, and giving Nora a couple snacks to tie her over. Sin had brought out 100 different plates of food, Noras eyes shined bright like the stars in the sky as her stomach grumbled in anticipation.
After supper Sin did the dishes, bathed Nora recited bedtime stories and then went out of the cabin quietly again. Sin read the one flashing log he had been holding off on reading since surviving the lightning Dragons final attack.
[Congratulations! your cultivation base has been repaired by 0.03% This is just enough for you to gain access to the Mystic Sorcery Tree, Mystic Blade Empress Sword Tree, and Mystic Soul Refinement Tree.]
Sin was beyond ecstatic, finally he could continue to develop his class, and profession. Sin entered into the Sword Tree with excitement, seeing as how it was the exact same before his fight with Solarus' army. Sin was beyond happy, he couldn't help but mutter beneath his voice.
"Master I am still alive!"
Elsewhere, Mystic Blade Empress who was surrounded by billions of corpses laid up against a tree exhausted and nearly dying. The sudden connection of Sin once again entering the Sword Tree awoke her from her slumber. She diverted her Mana, and her soul entered into the Sword Tree. When she saw her precious disciple training like a madman. A smile of relief finally appeared on her face. Looking at how hard her disciple was training, the exhaustion built up in her body vanished.
"If you can train so hard despite your circumstances being worse than mine. So can I, how could you ever call me master if I can't even keep up with my own disciple!?"
Mystic Blade Empress exited, using the hilt of her Soul Weapon to help her up. She once again began her training, to redeem herself of the shame and guilt she had. It was due to her own lack of power, Sin had sacrificed his cultivation base. It was due to her own lack of power, Sin went berserk at the death of his wife and loved ones. Never again would she allow herself to bear that humiliation, shame and guilt inside!
And so just like that, began Sins grueling two years of training nonstop. Torturing himself within his own paradise. Training in Mystic Sword Techniques, Mystic Sorcery, Mystic Soul Refinery, facing various Rebirth trials, and fighting 11,525 Master rank and above experts.
Raizens name within the Fairy Clan was quickly replaced with the title Madman.
