Chapter 8 - Chapter 8

She heaves a very deep sigh as fatigue seeps in. She took her phone and headphone and plug it in her ears. Music has been her companion for all these busy years she have in the cultivation world.

' Now I miss being a student', she thought while looking ahead. All she did before was to study sometimes and cut classes all the other time.

Eversince that day, she and her brother has been training. Her mother has a little realm, as they called it, where she can control the time. In there, 10 days outside the earth is a month in that world.

Her brother and she has learned a lot, in a very painful way that one can ever imagine. They experienced the pain that they have never experienced before. Their mother is the strictest teacher that they ever knew. They experienced not eating for a whole straight month just to hone their martial arts. Yes, they got to eat after that, but after a day of rest, another food deprived month awaited them and the cycle continues.

They also have to meditate every night, luckily, their mother's realm is abundant with qi spirit so they were able to advance quickly. They just got dragged on because every advancement, they have to kill a thousand beasts. For example, if they advanced to Blue first level, they have to fight against 999 Blue first step beasts and 1 Blue second step beast. They have to do the assessment in a forest in their mother's little realm separately, where the beasts are scattered.

The assessment is a brutal way of stabilizing their cultivation. Sometimes they finish the assessment early and sometimes, due to extreme exhaustion, as they also need to take care of their daily necessities in the forest themselves, they got to finish it late.

After the assessment, they will be back to their usual cycle, martial arts in the morning, meditation in the evening, without rest. That goes on for 7 painful years until they were thrown, quite literally, by their mother in the Huang Continent, where they have to fend of for themselves.

Their mother wants to see her children's performance, thus the siblings did everything in their power to establish a power for themselves and their family, seperately. As they all knew that there is someone out there, trying to annihilate them all.

All these years the two of them never saw each other even once.

Once they gather enough power, they have to proceed to their first mission,

To find their missing in action father.
