Chapter 872: Heaven's Favorite 'So this is the prowess of the man who opened the Mystic Pagoda… He was only a Spirit Master at that time, too…' Senior Nie thought to himself as he watched Yuan play with the six Sect Masters. Because the Mystic Realm did not show Yuan's movement and actions, nobody but those that were with him knew his potential. This included Senior Nie, who could only imagine Yuan's prowess until today. "This is absurd… almost comically so…" Sect Master Xiahou suddenly uttered in a dazed voice. "How can someone like him exist in this world? Why are the heavens allowing this to happen…?" Hearing her words, Senior Nie responded without looking away from the fight, "This is the heavens' way of messing with us cultivators for wanting to defy them by seeking eternal life. They will occasionally create geniuses that will surpass everyone with ease just to make the others fume with jealousy." "Of course, if they're feeling extremely bored, they will very, very rarely give birth to monsters that will dominate an entire era, and these monsters are fated to do just that, so there is nothing we can do about it." "We can beat them, oppress them, mock them, torture them, and even try to kill them, but they will always somehow manage to survive and continue their path of dominance. We call these monsters 'Heaven's Favorite'." "So you're saying that he's Heaven's Favorite?" Sect Master Xiahou asked. "I hope so." Senior Nie said with a bittersweet smile on his face. "Why?" Sect Master Xiahou raised her eyebrows in a puzzled manner. "Because there actually exists an existence that surpasses even Heaven's Favorite. This kind of existence are independent souls that do not obey any rules— not even those made by the mighty heavens, nor are they affected by fate, so they can essentially do whatever they want while ignoring all rules of this universe." "There isn't an official name for this kind of existence, but if I have to give them one, I would call them Forbidden Souls, as they are souls that should not be allowed to exist— for the sake of this world and everyone in it." Sect Master Xiahou was left speechless by Senior Nie's words, and she wondered if Yuan could be this kind of existence. Meanwhile, Yuan's battle with the six Sect Masters only got more heated with every passing moment, as the Sect Masters were beginning to get desperate. Most of them had been unconsciously using non-lethal techniques because they were ganging up on a young man that also has a lower cultivation base than them, but the Sect Masters eventually came to a realization— that Yuan isn't human, so they shouldn't fight like they were fighting a fellow human cultivator. "This bastard is clearly not human! And we won't defeat him until we stop considering him as a human! We need to treat this fight like we're fighting a magical beast— No, a Divine Beast! Let's stop holding back and fight with the intention to kill!" Sun Hao suddenly said to the other Sect Masters. Although they were hesitant at first, it did not take long for them to agree with Sun Hao. Once the Sect Masters stopped seeing Yuan as a human, their attacks immediately became more aggressive and destructive. "Hahaha! This is so fun! That's right! Fight me with the intention to kill me! Fight like your life depends on it!" Yuan laughed out loud as he also increased his pace and strength. "Formless Blade— Formless Death!" Bai Enjue used his most powerful technique on Yuan. The other Sect Masters followed. "Ancient Lion's Fury!" "Array of Four Elements!" "Heavenly Destruction!" All of the Sect Masters suddenly released their most powerful and destructive technique on Yuan simultaneously. A massive explosion occurred shortly afterward, forcing the Sect Masters and even the spectators to retreat. "Y-Yuan…" Li Jinxi swallowed nervously. 'Surely, he couldn't have survived that attack just now… right…?' While everyone there had their eyes focused on Yuan's direction, Senior Nie decided to focus on Xiao Hua instead for some reason. 'She's not acting, nor does she seem worried even in the slightest…' Senior Nie sighed inwardly after realizing why Xiao Hua remained so calm. 'It's over. The Sect Masters are not capable of defeating this monster…' Once the smoke disappeared enough, Yuan's figure appeared before the Sect Masters again, and he seemed to be completely unharmed, which left the Sect Masters completely baffled. After coming out of the smoke, Yuan cracked his fingers and said in a chilling voice, "I would like to believe that I have given you all enough time for your head start. It's now my turn to go on the offensive." Yuan's words immediately snapped the Sect Masters back to reality. "Shit! Stop him!" Sect Master Li shouted in a panicked voice. However, before anyone there could even do anything, Yuan's eyes changed colors, turning into majestic gold. [Dragon's Gaze!] All six Sect Masters halted their movements the moment they stared into Yuan's glowing eyes. "W-Where am I?! Where did the others go?!" The Sect Masters suddenly found themselves alone in the void, where there was only darkness and this unfathomable presence that continuously grew more terrifying until it was strong enough to shake the very core of their souls. Once their fear was at its peak, the Sect Masters finally realized what was causing this terrifying presence. However, this entity was so massive that just one of its eyes could make them look like ants before a watermelon in comparison. "H-Help! I give up! Please! Get me out of here, mother!" Sun Hao was so shaken by the massive eye that he started crying for his mother. The other Sect Masters had similar reactions. Bai Enjue dropped his sword and kowtowed before the entity in the void without uttering a single word. Sect Master Li and the others also did something similar. They had lost all will to fight and offered their unworthy lives to this unfathomable entity in the void!
