My Qi felt more, solid in a way, like bones it was across my entire body hardening it even more, though it had excluded my eyes which left them vulnerable, though he was higher in stages compared to me but that didn't mean he was going to win. Every time I fought I had won, Even though I had never fought in my life before I still felt extremely experienced whenever it came to that.
[Your body automatically regulated to a level which can comfortably fight opponents, as if you gained experience whenever getting stronger, your senses are also enhanced so some of your attacks and movements are purely instinctual for survival, Another reason is because. [INFORMATION NOT UNLOCKED].]
I looked surprised to say the least when hearing that some information wasn't able to be found out, though I think it might be for the better, After all this helped me be able to cultivate, As soon as he was about to swing once more I moved backwards bending towards the back wall almost hitting it, I noticed that the blade was coated in Qi meaning he had made it a lot stronger as of right now. Before it wasn't even able to scratch me but now I was sure it could hurt me considering it hit the side of the wall and caused it to be cut clean as it practically erased where the sword had slashed at.
"Looks like you were able to ascend, how lucky... TAKE THIS!"
The sword swing was used to distract me and corner me into a wall, I noticed as his body began to form Qi around his chest almost like a beam he was going to send at me, I was thoroughly confused though, it didn't seem like a good idea to do that when someone could react to it like me. I moved my body swing my leg to his side hitting one of his ribs full force as it caused his lowest rib to crack, but by the time it did I had heard alarms occurring outside the Building we were in.
"ACK!- Oh you're gonna pay for th-"
He coughed up blood, I would've seen the blood land on my clothes as I looked mildly annoyed from it, but I could see that stopping someone from charging up their Qi disrupted their flow of it which was also connected to the rest of the body considering it flowed through their veins and their bones and even organs, it wasn't a surprise that this happened, yet I still felt a little bad doing it. I would've quickly ran out of the building as I saw hundreds of people running towards the entrance of the Sect. I heard someone speaking out with their voice enhanced. A loud booming noise as I felt pain from hearing it from so far away, I was so confused on why everyone went there so quickly even though it should've burst their eardrums.
Running through the empty streets of the Sect I reached the Entrance and noticed that it seemed like an assembly, or more so people being informed there's an intruder. i was thinking it was me until they began describing who it was which seemed completely different from me, not only being their cultivation level but also their facial features, I would've sighed relief and left to go look for Ying to see where she was.
Come to think of it a rock went flying to us from this direction, that'd mean someone threw it at us while we were coming here on purpose... But who was it? It couldn't be that guy which I just beat up since I don't think he'd want to harm his girl as he calls Ying, though I doubt she even likes him, But that didn't mean I was a hundred percent correct either.
Quickly dashing I noticed how much faster I got, my body felt more resilient and for the first time I felt that I could move my mouth as if to say something, though of course no sound came out. Reaching where I last saw the other rope dragging Ying go, Going inside I slid through the guards who blocked the entrance and wasn't detected by them, I felt I could go a lot faster but I had no reason too, it wasn't needed when I was so close to the place anyways. Walking through the halls I saw Ying who was sitting up and getting bandaged by a Nurse, She noticed me and I waved at her smiling before walking over to her.
"Ah- Shang I don't think-"
"Who is this!? Ying get away that's an Intruder!"
"No- He isn't an intruder, hes one of my friends who I brought here, I just got dragged by some rope after I got hit in the head by the rock."
My mouth moved as I followed how one speaks, except only using my lips to say something, as the Nurse looked and examined what I said she could at least decipher part of the sentence I was trying to say.
"I think he's trying to say he was taking you here but then something took you and me away and some guy who called you his girl tried beating me up."
"Ughhh, If course it's Xiao that does that, I already told him I don't wanna be with him and he's still this adamant!"
I chuckled at what Ying had said, A small bit of laughter as I looked at her annoyed expression, though it was bad someone was so obsessive over her, the reaction she gave was priceless, I opened my eyes as Ying looked over to me.
"Wh- You can make Sound now!?"
I would nod as her eyes locked into mine, I got up waving at her before leaving in a near instant leaving a note behind for her to read when she had time to do so- I was speeding through the place as I felt faster than the rest of the people here even though their level was higher than me, Reaching the entrance I bent down putting my hands on my knees as I looked forwards at the Guards while tired acting like I ran here extremely fast.
"State your name and reason."
I would've taken out a paper from my pocket along with the device used for writing, There wasn't any good name for it so I'll just call it something easy to say like a Pen, I moved my hand thoroughly as the words formed from the ink spreading across the paper, Once I had finished I gave it too one of the guards as they looked at it and then looked up at me.
"Come in, You'll be tested on your cultivation level and then Battle Prowess."
I stepped foot once again into the Heavenly Union Sect following the Guards and looking around as people waved smiling, I did the same back- The people here seemed very nice, but I couldn't just think all of them were that way, especially not after my first encounter, Finally reaching the largest building, A Pavilion at somewhere close to the Center.
"You must go inside and you'll be guided too the first section of the Exam."
I went in gracefully, I looked a lot more excited but also ready to begin, the wind rushed through the doors as I opened them being dragged inside as I almost fell from the pressure of the gravity. It felt hard to even move here so it was obvious I wouldn't be able to fight here.
[A Gravity Array has been used here which increases the Gravity by tenfold from the normal level]
"Welcome newcomer, You'll be tested in four trials, the first is to decipher the Gravitational Array and figure out where it is, not only that but deactivate it as well to continue to the next level."
