"Haaah"..."Haah".. An extremely handsome man could be seen gasping for breath in an atrociously large and luxurious hall. He was surrounded by tens of people with auras so grand that one would consider it blasphemy to look at them directly yet all of them were injured with a few also having critical injuries.
"Hahahahah Xiao Han! This is your end! After thousands of years, I have finally managed to get rid of you! Hahaha" An elegant man wearing spotless white clothes that made him look like the Immortal he was, laughed at the extremely handsome man. "Hmm? Why are you so confident that you can kill me right now? As far as I am concerned, we have been in this situation many times before yet every time, the result was me killing all of your men and you barely escaping?" The extremely handsome man replied with a calm voice.
The elegant man's eye twitched upon hearing Xiao Han's words and it could be seen that he was angry. However, he still managed to remain calm and said, "You have a slick tongue as always, Xiao Han, trying to enrage me even in this situation. However, you don't have to worry because there is no chance of you escaping anyways. That's because I have managed to get help from a being who is beyond either of us and HE is already here to take your life. Hahahhahah"
"WHAT?!?!" Xiao Han was flabbergasted, as the words spoken by the elegant man could only mean one thing... A Cosmic Being had agreed to help him.
"Haha what now, Xiao Han? Are you finally feeling despair? Do you want to beg for mercy? Kneel and kowtow to me a hundred times and I might leave you a whole corpse. Hahahaha"
"Enough" A booming voice resounded throughout the massive hall. "Let's get this over with"
"Yes, Senior" The elegant man had a look of reverence on his face. It could be seen how much he respected or... feared the owner of the voice.
A bulky yet handsome man wearing a shockingly shiny gold armor with gold wings on his back walked in the hall. His aura was unlike anything else, as if it was a world of its own.
"The Heavenly God?! Why would you want to kill me?" Xiao Han was shocked, as he never had any enmity with the Heavenly God, yet now he wanted to take his life.
Yes, this bulky man was the Heavenly God, The leader of the Heavenly Origin Temple, A peak power in the Boundless Immortal World and he was also one of the only few Cosmic Beings in existence.
"No point in explaining to a dead man" The Heavenly emperor replied nonchalantly.
"However, Xiao Han, your title as the strongest Immortal under the heavens is not undeserved, so I shall give you the honor of dying to my strongest attack. After all, you are the only Immortal in this world whose strength I respect" As the Heavenly God said this, he also raised his golden sword, which started humming crazily and a terrifying sword Qi was released from it.
He swung his sword down and the destruction it brought along could only be described as catastrophic, as it contained the power to quite possibly bring the entire world to ruins.
Xiao Han had no choice but to face this terrifying attack head-on as he was trapped by a formation set up beforehand by the elegant man but unfortunately, Xiao Han's strength as an Immortal could not contend against a Cosmic Being's full strength and he perished on the spot.
However, the moment Xiao Han was killed, in a distant, mediocre world, incomparable to the Boundless Immortal Worlds, A man who looked frighteningly similar to Xiao Han was lying on the ground and bleeding, opened his eyes. But now, there was something different in his gaze, something terrifying.
"Ughh" He coughed up blood. "What...? What's happening? I'm still alive? Did the Heavenly God spare me? But then why am I lying on the ground like this?" Xiao Han was extremely confused. He took a deep breath to calm down and inspected himself and what he found left him astounded.
"Wha...How is this even possible?!?! MY CULTIVATION IS GONE?!?!?!"
Yes, the cultivation that made him an Immortal, the cultivation that made him one of the peak characters in the Boundless Immortal World, the cultivation that he acquired after countless life and death encounters, the cultivation that took him an innumerable amount of years to achieve, was gone!
Xiao Han was extremely disheartened, even contemplating whether to continue living as he was now crippled but then, he found a ray of hope. He discovered that although his cultivation nowhere near his original cultivation, his Dantian was still present and a miniscule amount of Qi was present in it.
The amount of Qi was the same as an average 2nd stage Qi gathering realm cultivator, which meant that he was not truly crippled and he could gain back his original cultivation, albeit slowly. And with that in mind, he got back up with one thing in mind, to get even stronger than before and get revenge on the two people who put him in this situation.
"HAHAHAHA Heavenly God! Just wait! You just made the biggest you ever could..." He thought to himself. He then inspected his surroundings.
The surroundings were unfamiliar to him as well, which shouldn't be possible as he had explored nearly the entire Boundless Immortal World. He also discovered a few people, who, although were cultivators, were extremely weak, being only at the Qi gathering realm, The first realm in the long journey known as Cultivation.
The Qi in the Heaven and Earth was extremely low quality as well, far from the Boundless Immortal World which led him to believe that he was currently in a minor world and an extremely low quality one as well.
As he got up, the people took notice of him too. There were seven people on one side with one at the 7th stage of the Qi gathering realm, two at the 6th stage and rest at the 5th stage and on the other side, there were only two people, one woman and one man, both at the 6th stage of Qi gathering realm.
"Brat, you should have stayed down and pretended to be dead, maybe you would've kept your life that way. kekeke" One of the people from the bigger group sneered, with a weird laugh.
"Xiao Han! Run! You can still live if you run. They're here for us, not you!" The woman worriedly shouted at him.
"Kekeke run? Trash at only the 2nd stage could never run from us" The man sneered once more. "However, Feng Xinyi, If you hand over the Feng family's treasure, I can consider letting that guy go" This time, the leader of the bandits, at the 7th stage spoke, point at Xiao Han.
"Keep dreaming!" The man beside Feng Xinyi shouted.
Meanwhile, Xiao Han was simply standing in his original spot, going through the memories of the body he was currently in, as he had realized that he wasn't in his original body but someone else's altogether. He had actually experienced reincarnation! He also came to know the current situation.
The Feng family was once a great noble family but in recent times, it was declining as the Patriarch had passed due to a disease and only a pair of siblings were left, Feng Xinyi and Feng Lei. The body Xiao Han was currently in was servant of the Feng family, who took him in when he was a child until he was 16 years old, his current age.
The Ji family, an ally of the Feng family since their founding times, came to know of the Patriarch's passing and betrayed them to get their hands on the Feng family's treasure, one that allowed the Feng family to achieve an unprecedented growth in a short period of time. And these bandits that were currently surrounding the pair of siblings were hired by the Ji family, to extract the treasure from them.
"Then I'll just torture this brat in front of you until you spit out where the treasure is!" The leader of the bandits replied to Feng Lei, and made his way to Xiao Han."Keke brat, don't blame me for this, blame those two for not valuing your life over their treasure" The leader taunted. As the leader was close to Xiao Han, He finally opened his eyes once more and looked at the leader with the gaze of a god looking at mere mortal, disdaining his entire existence.
"Scram" he said indifferently, yet to everyone there, it felt like an imperial command, one that couldn't be disobeyed. The Leader stopped in his tracks immediately, his eyes filled with fear and his back wet with cold sweat. But he convinced himself that the little brat in front of him, who was only at the 2nd of the Qi gathering realm was only using a mysterious technique to intimidate him and launched an attack with his axe in hand.
Merely, the next moment, he and every other bandit fell down at the same time, their body lifeless.
"WHAT?!?!" The pair of siblings had their eyes wide open and their jaw touching the ground as they had never seen something so incomprehensible before in their life. But they knew that whatever happened was related to Xiao Han, who felt like a completely different person than before, so they asked him in a trembling voice.
"W-What di-did you do, Xiao Han?"
"Nothing" he replied in a calm voice. But that was not the truth. He killed them all with merely his killing intent, something that can form when one has killed an extremely large amount of people. Killing intent usually only intimidates people but with how weak the opponent was compared to his killing intent, Xiao Han could kill anyone at the Qi gathering realm with just his killing intent.
