Year 12 before the Human Calendar - Outlands of Heavenly Phoenix City - Northeast house
(Tang POV)
*Cough* *Cough*
Coughing blood, the weakened body of Mom lies on the bed.
"My little Tang, I will not live much longer" Mom
"No, I don't want that!" Tang
Tears come out of my eyes.
"I... I will convince father, he surely will help you this time" Tang
I was about to leave the room when...
"My little Tang..." Mom
She somehow grabbed my hand with hers.
"Please, never forget that life is precious. Always protect anyone you can, can you promise me that?" Mom
Her hands couldn't keep holding mine and dropped to the side of the bed.
"Yes" Tang
I fix her posture on the bed.
"I promise that I will protect people. Everyone I can, including you" Tang
She smiles at me.
"So wait for me" Tang
I left the house without knowing that that would be our last moment together.

Year 43 of the Human Calendar - West wall of the Holy Land of Xue - Outside the crater on the West Wall
"!?" Tang
I regained my consciousness.
"Uuughh!" Tang
Only to feel pain all over my body.
"StaAtus" Tang

Even if I am awake, I cant see anything.
"Life... Detection" Tang
With the help of the Life Detection I can feel it. I lost my left feet, my right leg, my right hand, half of my skin, and the vision of both my eyes.
I...
"!!!" Tang
At 378 meters from here... I feel Benjamin in danger.
"Ben...jamin" Tang
I stretch my hand in his direction.
*Clink*
And hitting something awakens a memory.
("Master Linjian, if the problem of the Mana stone is that the blue mist escapes when it breaks, Why don't we use the mist somehow?") Tang
("The mana differs from people to people. If I somehow force my mana into another being, it will surely boost their strength momentarily, but it will also kill them") Linjian
("Tang, never try to use my mana")
I am sorry Master Linjian, I will have to disobey you.
My left hand introduces the spiritual repellent into my mouth.
*Crack*
[498 MP...]
I feel the embrace of his mana in my body.

One minute, Everything will be decided in only one minute.
"UOOOOHHHH!!" Tang
This will be my last spark of life.
(Take it all, Burn every muscle and bone left in this body!)
"Life Detection!" Tang
Show me the way!
"Wind Manipulation!" Tang
Let me rise one time more!
"Sword Art!" Tang
Cut through the darkness of this world!
"Mana Handling!" Tang
LET ME PROTECT THE PRECIOUS ONES TO ME!!
"BLUE REQUIEM!!"
[507 MP CONSUMED]
My entire body becomes a flying blue sword.

"I am the Emperor!" Huang Di
"!!!" Benjamin
"!?" Huang Di
"That is...!" Benjamin
"This time I will protect them!" Tang
"Dad?!" Benjamin
"Ha, do you really think that I will just wait here for you?" Huang Di
A gray darkness was about to cover him when...
"Full input - Blue Shackles" Benjamin
Shackles appear on both his wrists and ankles, interrupting what he was doing.
"GHHHAAAAAA!!!" Tang
I keep going forward ignoring the extreme pain.
"I can still move my body!" Huang Di
He was about to move when a purple spearhead nails his left feet to the ground.
("Go for it!") ???
"This thing!" Huang Di
His left hand was about to take off the spearhead, when a blue arrow hits his right eye.
"Full input - Mach 10" Hom
The arrow was unable to pierce his eye, but it didn't matter. I was able to reach his torso.
"I am an Immortal, no matter how many times you lowly beings scratch my body, I..." Huang Di
I didn't only cut him, I was injecting all the mana of the skill inside his body.
"Wha...!" Huang Di
Starting from the center of his body, Blue veins appeared all over his body.
"No... this cant be... I am the birth of a new dynasty... the new emperor..." Huang Di
"The era of cultivators is... over" Tang
We both drop on the ground, I as a bloodless body and he as a pile of ashes.
[IMMORTAL RANK GRADE ? DEFEATED, MIND EXPERIENCE...]
...
The Life Detection wore off, so I can't see anything anymore.
"Da...!" Benjamin
I cant hear anything else, neither I can feel anything.
"This time I protected... someone" Tang
...Yue, our children are... safe...

"...!" Linjian
[What is wrong?]
(I... don't know, My mana is acting strange)
Why do I feel like this.
[...You are crying]
