29 Out Number...

lightning shook the world as bolt of lightning rained down like right, before the lightning hit the ground, they all to the form of demons, beasts, dragons, phoenixes, humans, buddhas, and the list went on.

A tribulation never seen before under heaven and earth fell, each lightning held the experience of a lifeform who had died, and returned to heaven and earth, although their power was limited to only the Mid Earth immortal realm, their might and numbers made them all extremely dangerous.

In the middle of the spot the rain was falling stood a white-haired young man, with a cocky smile. to say the least, with his strength being at Mid Earth Immortal, he was outnumbered by beings with more experience than himself. there were billions of these beings,

the earth exploded, and as Ling Han got forward, his body seemed to move on its own, slamming through the chest of a middle-aged man who was about to swing his axe, which felt like it could cut open the heaven and earth. Pulling out his heart, Ling Han disappeared, leaving the man's body to shatter into dots of light that entered Ling Han's body.

Ling Han's blindfold exploded, revealing his beautiful eyes, with a step shot all over the place, not staying in one place, and not giving them a chance to pinpoint his location. To make it even harder for them, he changed his fighting style, making it harder for them to guess and read his movements.

But even I wasn't foolish enough to look down on so many capable people, sure of few of them easily fell. but that was simply because I out-clashed with them, and caught them off guard before they could get to read me. I was also going after those who were easiest for me to deal with, but given some time, they all moved and attacked me.

I couldn't teleport as many space-type cultivators amongst them made that impossible, as they locked down space.

A sword swing, Arrow, claws, and many other attacks appeared before me. but for a moment they couldn't break through my wall of infinity, but the next moment they targeted my wall of infinity, shattering through it and their attacks neared me, but time around me suddenly stopped, creating an unbreakable wall that blocked all of their attacks.

Infinity Now had 3 parts, the first part was the Wall Of Infinity, and the Second was called the Unchanging Barrier. with this one, I stop time on the air or space around me, creating an unbreakable shield. even if it breaks the wall of infinity, it has to break something that can't change as time no longer gives it the chance to change.

and yes, this ability worked on its own, my subconscious cast this ability to protect him from all harm. was that everything? Of course, now, there was a 3rd part this this ability.

the attacks that were blocked by my barrier exploded, with the power to shatter time. and with another push, my Unchanging Barrier shattered, but this brought me enough power for my nearly created technique.

"All Mighty Push." I roared, as all of the attacks paused for a moment before they were all sent lightning backward, even space and time were stretched by how powerful this technique was. this is the power of Red, forced into my body before released. It takes time to charge, and it also has a cool-down time.

Boom

from the sky, a fist slammed into the back of my neck, slipping through all of my senses. to say the least, I was shocked, but the hair on my bad had raised, allowing me to protect myself at the least moment, although not as good as I wished as it left me having to turn time back on my body as the injury wasn't simple. 

I landed heavily on the ground, but before I could kick the ground and shoot up, the earth locked my feet in. Before I could do anything, spikes shot toward me, spikes that were capable of piercing through space and time. my defenses were left useless, and I was stabbed through... but after a moment, I just simply walked through the spikes, appearing before an earth dragon, and punching him with a vibrating fist

but as my fist was about to land, the air before me exploded, sending me flying back while coughing up a mouthful of blood. just as II was about to land, countless attacks rained towards me, again, my body moved, phasing through all of the attacks. but not all could be phased through, so my body parts were teleported to my inner world just as they were about to be hit.

I quickly used the all mighty Push once more, pushing them away, but as soon as they were sent away, more came to take their place. there were too many coming, and I couldn't do anything as they wouldn't give me the chance to do anything. They already got a good read of me, and my action of changing my battle style and so on helped me take down just 3 of them and that was it.

'the heavens don't want me to pass this tribulation...' I thought with a smirk while removing the blood from the corner of my lips. I waved my body, and with that ripples appeared in space where copies of the guys I was lightning shot out. they were not the only ones reading others, I was reading all of them, although not all of them, but 300 of them.

'the space of the immortal realm is far more stable, forcing me to have to use more power to do something which would have only needed a thought in the lower realm...' I thought while feeling just how much energy was needed to make copies of them, I wanted to make a trillion and get this done with, but that seemed impossible. my max was 500, and that would leave me tired.

this was annoying as I just got to a point where my energy was removed faster than I could waste it. Sighing softly, I was as the copies I created quickly got overwhelmed, they seemed to also not be perfect copies. in annoyance, my body shook before countless copies of myself burst out of my body, all of them shooting toward a target

"You want to use numbers, not even the heavens can make more numbers than me," I said calmly, as countless enemies were slaughtered. sure some were trickier than others, but they were slaughtered. shouldn't this have used up a lot of energy you ask?

Nope, I was in control of my own space and time. so I could create similar numbers of clones I could create down in the lower realm, although even in the immortal realm, the number seemed to be limited as well,

the heavens shook at my words, sensing that it was changed, more lightning began raining, and the range of the tribulations grew. but this time, the lightning didn't turn into those with strength at Mid Earth Immortal, it instead grew to those at Peak Earth Immortal, and their numbers reached the trillions.

the difference between a Mid and High Earth Immortal was simple, 100 Mid Earth Immortal would be needed if they hopped to take down a High Earth Immortal. for someone at the Peak Earth immortal. at least 300 High Earth Immortals would be needed, the gap was that huge.

"Is that all?" I roared as from my body, more copies of myself grew, and from my copies, more copies grew. the pattern went on until dozens of trillions of Ling han filled this world, all of them mocking looking at the newcomers before shooting forward.

"Now this is what a CG battle would be... good it would look ugly," I said softly to myself as I charged up Super Purple, on top of my middle finger.

"test the divine finger... Super Purple." I said softly, before all of my copies quickly fused into one, shooting back into my body before I shot Super Purple forward. the normal Purple was created by blue and red, which caused everything to turn into 0 within its path.

What about Super Purple? everywhere was its path, up, down, right, left, some things were erased before its path, and everything appeared in its path. an ultimate move, a move that can't be blocked, or dodged. a move that just erases even the rules of this world.

The copies of myself were not to win the battle, they were to buy me the 10 seconds needed to charge up this attack. 10 seconds didn't seem large, but one has to understand that I saw time differently, I could go faster than the speed of light, yet I had to stand for a whole 10 seconds. do you understand just how long that was for me? That was like months for me, but the power output was worth it.

everything turned white, everything was erased, and even the darkness was gone for a moment. but after a moment, everything turned to normal, and I found myself standing there, all alone, a huge smooth hole in the earth that went down for dozens of millions of miles, where lava could be seen.

'what a big ass planet.' I thought while looking at just how big this planet was, at least the size of a small sun. Anyway looked at the clouds and saw that the storm clouds were shaking, how could they not be as i had more interest in looking at the core of the earth than it, but in the end the storm clouds opened up, bathing me in countless dots of lights.

at first, I was confused about all of this because I realized that, my already sharp mind was getting sharper. my body which I cultivated was getting better, and the same for my cultivation, and soul cultivation. everything became perfect... no, it became so perfect that the dots of lights lost everything else they could do, so they simply moved to improve my cultivation and put me in a state of enlightenment, where I began to comprehend my nameless Dao.

it was not hard for me to guess what the heavens wanted, they wanted me dead. such a powerful tribulation would have killed anyone. but at the end of the day, it failed so it tried to have me break through to Martial Emperor, so it could have another go at trying to kill me. but even the heavens have underestimated just how much energy I would need for such a breakthrough.

At Martial Lord, I cut the chain of time which held. at Martial King, but not all of the chain, I still had one small link that held me, or else I would just stop changing. now, At Martial King, I used that link to steal time from heaven and earth and use that time to create my own time, allowing me to exist within my own heaven and earth, my own world.

what does this mean? it means I was pretty much a super small universe, existing within this world. I had my own rules which were had to create, I had nearly absolute control of my time and space, and so on. Of course, the control only grew with every breakthrough until level 10, where I could do just about anything I wanted with my space-time so long as my energy and strength allowed it.

this means now, I can have myself move faster through time, backward, and the list goes on. since I was not of this time, my resistance towards any space-time ability was nearing immunity. now if I wished to be as big as stars, it could happen since I controlled my form, if I wished for my time to be billions of times faster, then it shall be billions of times faster since I control my time. of course, I might not be able to reach such a thing as the more I wish for my to-go increase, the more strength would be needed to do such things.

other things I could do was pretty much appear anywhere I wished, it was not teleportations, since this world's rules of space were something I didn't need to follow anymore. of course, there were still some rules I needed to follow, but overall, I was free.

I managed to reach level 6 Martial King thanks to the heavens in my cultivation, a breakthrough which gave me to rival those Earth immortals at the peak stage. A huge jump in power, but that was not all... thanks to my state of enlightenment, I took that final step and my Dao reached stage two.

My Dao was truly powerful, and the power it brought although at High-Earth Immortal level strength, adding with my cultivation, and was sure I could defeat even those Sky Immortals, thats not adding Supr Purple which I can't measure due to how powerful it was. all I knew was 10 seconds was my limit, any more and I can't control that thing from injuring even me...

Ling Han had ascended, of course, all of the immortal realm was looking to try and see where he would pop up. but two things happened which led to everyone being unsure as to where Ling Han ascended to, it was random, and even the heaven and earth had to be fair, ending someone to a low-grade planet somewhere within the immortal realm, in the weaker part of the planet,

while everyone searched for Ling Han, they couldn't pinpoint his location that well upon his arrival in the immortal realm, his space-time fused with the immortal realm, making it look like he was here all his life. of course, such things would stop them for a long, but Ling Han cut the link he had with the river of time, which also meant space as well.

they tried to locate him, but all they found were weird things, like Ling Han was next them to, or he was not there, and so on. but this isn't even adding the fact Ling Han's eyes had a special ability that allowed people to have a hard time looking to his fate, this only grew when he unlocked the true capability of the 12 Eyes. then there was the fact Ling Had had already had a weak connection with this world thanks to his cultivation art,

everyone was panicking, not knowing what to do to locate him. but none could find even a shadow of Ling Han, which horrified everyone that such a genius was off and walking somewhere.

Han Jue sat within his Dao field, the happening within the immortal realm all clear to his eyes. He frowned for some time, not knowing how to deal with this. He frowned for some time, before getting up. he was sure his unparalleled tail was a match for the likes of Ling Han, but they took different paths in life.

He wished to stay in peace, remove all trouble before it could grow, and sit back and just cultivate and gain immortality. Ling Han? He was 100% sure he would reach the peak, so he looked down upon everyone and earth, living life as he wished.

Like him, Ling Han didn't seek inheritance because he needed them, he saw them as something that would speed up something that would happen sooner or later. meanwhile, he ignored such things and just stayed to himself... but could he ignore such things any longer? he needed to step out and improve, something he would only do until Ling Han died. if he ignored Ling Han and left him to just keep growing, sooner or later Ling Han would be knocking at his Dao field, with a bunch of bears and insects or something...
