Seismic waves could be felt through the entire forest from the overwhelming strength of the number one in strength and the number two. "Your keeping up quite well seems you have gotten stronger Ezekiel.", "Garon don't flatter me your not using your full strength yet why are you going easy on me?" Cheng's grandpa said with a chuckle of amusement.
"To be honest I don't want your grandson to join any particular guild, I want him to be a branch between the top five guilds we hold." Garon shot out a bright light distorting Ezekiel's senses, "What do you mean a branch and why didn't you say anything before?"
Garon attacked but Ezekiel easily blocked the attack and countered, "You think that will be enough to put me in, explain your self." Ezekiel demanded as he changed his fighting stance and went on the defensive, they went back and forth of blocking and countering as no one landed a hit.
"I want your grandson to be off the books and come and go from all the guilds but if petitioned this he might say no and the others would want him all to themselves so they would go against it but if we got him to bring it up and he has mine and your support they will agree, and he can get training that no one else could from every guild." Garon explained as they continued with their fight.
Ezekiel jumped back to dodge the attack, "That sounds promising we will try it your way but if he says no then you help him escape deal."
Garon laughed as he shook his head in agreement.
"Your grandsons smart using his combo skill to make lookalikes of himself to distract the others this will buy us some time to find him."
Cheng was hiding under ground as he hid his presence and started meditating in the darkness to grow his strength and gain the energy he lost creating the shadow warriors. As the others finished off the last of the shadows they regrouped to discus there next options.
As his body was absorbing the dark energy he sent his conscience inside himself, it was dark and light at the same time as elements swirled together of all the different elements he could control it was chaotic. A dragon was just floating in the darkness as it opened its eyes.
"It seems you have the ability to actually cultivate in a profound way. You can create a world, i mean everyone can but their world is made out of one or two elements. But here you control all elements and you can create a profound world that you have complete control over." The dragon Rin said.
"Rin you are such a great help you know that!" Cheng said in gratitude. He got into a meditative state and started controlling the elements using light to create day and using darkness to create night, Making the core out of fire and earth, creating land and plants covering it with earth and water, he took his time forging a world out of pure elemental energy. He could feel the energy become more natural and he was less exhausted.
He didn't know that he was building up his foundation which would allow him to become stronger and have more stamina. He could feel his body and soul become lighter. A Violet light came down and into the planet as all the elements where found on the planet he made the Violet light went down into the core as it rested there. It was the bloodline seed, as long as Cheng grew and cultivated his planet the seed would grow just as much if not more.
As he cultivated his core and absorbed elemental energy for his surroundings he could feel his body going through a change growing accustomed to the new energy, as he added it to his world. His body became physically stronger as his abilities did as well.
Rin flew down and landed on the world having a place to stay. "Now that you have a inner world I have a place to stay, thank you!" Rin said as she got into a meditative state and cultivated as well, with her mark on Cheng connecting her to the world outside she could absorb energy out of that and cultivate instead of using his planets energy.
Rin's body started glowing as a red scale came off her body it was glowing bright red, "I will give you this gift, its a dragon seed as you cultivate it you will help you increase your cultivation speed and it will increase your strength. But you will slowly turn into a dragon if you lose control of the energy." she said as she handed Cheng the dragon scale.
He came out of cultivation feeling refreshed, He could feel the presence of the big five in front of the cave. He walked out of the cave feeling a little more confident and rested. "Will you guy's leave me alone yet this is a waste of your time and energy." Cheng said with a annoyed tone as he walked out of the cave.
"Cheng You insulted one of the big three and nocked out one of their guild mates, you have tarnished their name. You have to accept what you did and face your punishment. We have given you time its been a few weeks since you went in that cave." Cheng's grandpa said
"It was him who interfered with what I was doing and his lackey who attacked me. It was self defense. I'm annoyed now If you all insist on fighting then fine we will fight." Cheng released a little energy to seem weaker than he actually is to try and spite one of them running in.
Zeus angry at Cheng's words darted towards Cheng as he attacked, a fist darted landing on Zeus face smacking him into a tree, he got up as a drop of blood ran down his lip. "I've gotten my strength back can't you tell." Cheng said in a mocking manner.
Zeus now using his full strength and cultivation created a lightning bolt bigger than any he's used in the past. "Take this then you degenerate." it shot down straight towards Cheng but before it could hit Garon caught the lightning bolt in his hand, "look this isn't the time, you are obviously capable on your own but what if you joined all of our guilds instead. You would be off the books and have access to boundless resources with our combined guilds." Garon suggested as he smiled towards Cheng.
