Its An Island

"Such power..." The room was filled with the shocked gasp of Fan Ye and the others who had reached level 1 nascent soul. they were all stunned for some time before they looked down towards LIng Han who was in her arms, fast asleep. As of this moment, they were the strongest power in the continent.

"Let's get a strong hold on the continent..." So, they got to work. Ling Fang went on to take over all of the nearby powers, no one dared to stand in his way seeing he was above the realm of the Nascent soul realm. It was a quick and easy takeover as everyone happily submitted before this new power that was willing to pass on to them the way to reach the nascent soul realm.

the many sects and clans they all easily rejected the royal family. it was so smooth, but this was mainly thanks to just how the royal family had taken a monopoly on everything. and when the many powers heard of how the royal family set up a trap to kill the peak level 10 core formation realm expert, they were of course enraged and wanted to overthrow them.

Fan Ye was still the strongest, it was clear Ling Han treated his mother the best above everyone else. So, Fan Ye disappeared. She took Ling Han's blanket as a weapon, before shooting off towards the Holy Ground. Back then, she needed around 30 minutes to arrive, but right now she needed less than a second to arrive at the holy ground.

As she entered, her spiritual sense spread out covering hundreds of miles around her. the fact she had just broken through to this realm yet her spiritual sense was so powerful was a shock, but she didn't know this. her spiritual sense was also sharp, she was able to see the slightest of detail within her spiritual sense, down to the slightest air movement to the number of grasses on a tree. it was all within her senses yet it didn't overwhelm her mind

She didn't care for this and shot towards where she last saw the middle-aged man, and soon saw his traces and quickly found him looking around for her parents. But upon sensing her, he stopped and looked over at her in shock.

"It's you!" He said in shock seeing the woman he had just seen a few hours ago, with a snort, Fan Ye glared at him.

"You forced me to break into this realm ahead of time, how dare a small ant from this continent annoy me? if today your royal family don't give me a good explanation, this whole continent shall be getting a new overlord." Fan Ye said with her aura slamming down upon the middle-aged man, causing his face to go pale.

"What, not so arrogant anymore?" Fan Ye asked while slapping far away, her aura destroying the cave far away, as well as freeing those who were lost in a blind state of slaughter. her spiritual sense covered them and sent all of the information into their minds that they needed to know.

"I didn't mean offending the young miss." the middle-aged man's face was pale, but deep down he was enraged. what did he do to her? All he did was stop her and step away to let her leave, yet that was enough to offend her.

"Didn't mean? you spineless piece of trash," Fan Ye sneered slightly, with a wave of her palm, the air turned into sharp blades that cut the arms and legs of the middle-aged man. the middle-aged man let out a cry of pain, normally those of the nascent soul realm could regrow body parts and other limbs so long as their nascent soul wasn't damaged.

for example, if one nascent soul's arms weren't damaged, then so long as they had the energy, they could regrow their arms no matter how many times it is cut off. Of course, this would leave one soul weakened with each recovery. but Fan Ye attacked had cut both the physical arm and nascent soul arms at the same time. he even felt the essences also taking a blow. for a moment, he had trouble remembering if he had always had arms or just lost them.

her attack targeted everything, making it almost impossible to block or defend such an attack. this attack targeted many things, even the heavens were questioning if he ever had arms or not.

"Leave, and runoff. If your boss doesn't roll over here to apologize, I shall slaughter everyone." Fan Ye said coldly, her killing intent seemingly to reshape the world around her, taking form. seeing this and how this was the same cultivation art as the royal family ancestor, the middle-aged man quickly flew off while taking his arms with his spiritual sense.

Fan Ye watched him leave before frowning slightly, she was only doing this as Ling Fang said there might be a mighty power behind the royal family. before they attacked or did anything, they had to feel the enemy out for their trump cards, while at the same time stopping them from growing stronger. this means making sure their plans stopped.

Fan Ye looked towards the cave she had just destroyed and the remaining 6 experts who were covered in blood. She looked at them for a moment as they kneeled before her in respect before she spoke.

"Leave." She said calmly while flying to look at the spot where the cave stood, there she saw the remains of a formation that took the blood and the killing intent, turning it into some type of power source. she followed this formation and soon saw a spear.

the spear was a strange one which seemed to be made out of the blood of its enemy, the spear seemed to be alive as it released a faint breath. it breathed in Qi and released killing intent.

"... Oh, you're the level 2 nascent soul?" She asked, it seemed like this was the thing that they were trying to improve. Ling Han didn't know how to tell her it was a spear and could only tell her it was another expert. but then again, this spear had wisdom, and a spirit of its own but weapons had a different cultivation system than beast and humans... but at this moment that spirit was looking at her. She could feel the spirit looking right at her.

She held out her palm, and the spear shot over, resting in her arm on its own. how could this spear not take her as its master after feeling the killing intent she had just released? this spear had never felt such beautiful and pure killing intent, it had happily submitted.

"You would be a beautiful gift to my father... you need not worry, he is better suited for the way of the spear than me. you would like him more than me." She said feeling how the sword was unwilling to have her father be its master, at this she smiled slightly.

"Let go of my Spear!" a roar sounded behind Fan Ye, Fan Ye turned around and saw a group of experts all at the nascent soul realm before her. She looked at all of them before her eyes landed on the person who had called out, a blood-red-haired young man. he had a unique aura about him, those with weak will who even neared him would transform into bloodthirsty monsters who would only know how to kill.

Fan Ye shrugged and threw the spear at him, but the spear turned and tried to fly back towards her. seeing this, the blood-red-haired man tried to take hold of his spear, this enraged the spear which turned around and stabbed towards the blood-red-haired man, stunning him as he tried to block the spear, but it pierced through his stomach.

Seeing the spear trying to drink its blood, he quickly slapped the spear away while the hole in his stomach slowly recovered. he watched as the spear shot back towards Fan Ye, flying up and down as if wanting her to accept it.

"Well, if you want me so bad, how can I say no?" Fan Ye said while taking the spear into her hands, making the blood-red-haired man's eyes turn red with rage. 

"Who are you!" The blood-red-haired man asked coldly, at this moment even if he was stronger than the woman in front of him, the spear should be his equal in power. when the two fused their power, he was able to fight even those at level 4 Nascent soul.

"thats not important, what I'm interested is in the fact someone like you is on this continent. and before you try and use your background to scare me, It would not affect me. for trash like you, you don't have a background on the same level as mine. You can't even skip a level, how trash." Fan Ye said with a sneer, sending a chill down the blood-red-haired man.

Just who was this woman, why would someone so capable come to this trashy continent? he forced himself to calm down and lowered his head

"Now, I will ask again. Who are you, and what gave you the balls to stand in front of me?" She asked with a cold glare, a glare that held overwhelming power, forcing all 9 of the nascent soul realm experts to look down. Fan Ye had noticed there were 9 nascent soul realm experts, of course, the guy whose arms and legs she had cut off wasn't there. adding this spear that would make 11 nascent soul realm experts in total... then Ling Han wasn't talking about the spear but one of them in front of her was going to break through to level 3 nascent soul?

"My name is Chang Long from Slaughter Mountain Sect of Blue Flame Continent." Chang Long said his arrogance and pride of a mighty expert were nowhere to be seen. but at his words, Fan Ye let out a mocking laugh.

"Wow, trash continent after another. Let me guess, you ran here to get a monopoly of the resources here since you couldn't back home? someone like you would never reach the peak." Fan Ye laughed in disdain, making Chang Long's head lower to hide his rage. Of course, Fan Ye never heard of this Blue Flame Continent... but he didn't need to know that.

"the Chang clan originated from the Blue Flame continent, it was only over 10,000 years ago that my father got his hands on an inheritance which allowed him to leave this continent and return to the Blue Flame continent, but he built his foundation here. I came back to help refine my spear while also getting ready to break through." Chang Long said softly,

"I meant no disrespect, please don't let it bother you." Chang Long said softly, while Fan Ye crossed her arms.

"Alright, but it's going to cost you. My guardian had taken in a disciple a few days ago, she wants him to rise on his own two feet before he makes his way to my sect. I will give you a chance to rise to greater heights, and no longer have to crawl back here to get resources." Chang Long said stunning the young man who looked at her.

"Well, act as the clan teacher as they go deeper into this world. they are capable, and you will come to find out, that clan is filled with talents. thanks to my guardian who had helped to unleash their talent, They all have the hopes to reach greater heights." Fan Ye said calmly

"Before you are two paths, go and support them while letting them temper themselves. this will allow you to rise with them and enjoy the resources my guardian had left them. two, go back to your dad and come back here with him just for the two of you to be slapped to death." Fan Ye said with a smile, leaving Chang Long stunned for some time. but that smile sent chills down his spine.

if he says no, he is sure to die today. He of course had the means to survive, but seeing her attack on that middle-aged man, and the fact he was questioning if that middle-aged man was born with arms or not, scared him. he had never seen anything like this.

"I Chang Long promise to support them and guide them to the best of my capability to the peak. if I go against this oath in any shape or form, then let the heavens kill me on the spot." Chang Long said making an oath. to which Fan Ye nodded her head in approval. but she looked at the other nascent soul realm experts, causing them to all quickly make the same oath.

"Good, Good. your royal family shall rise. The clan is called the Ling Clan, unlike me, my guardian is quick to kill. so don't do anything to hinder her student path." Fan Ye laughed while disappearing, leaving the group of experts standing there with sweat covering their foreheads. 

"and thats how you scam an empire." Fan Ye said to Ling Fang who had arrived at some point, it was he who told her to instead of killing them get them to support the Ling Clan.

"My wife is the best. now we sit back and wait for him to come over and we can know what the outside world is like." Ling Fang said with a smile. to think that after 11 days since his son was born, he would have the empire in the palm of his hand.

well, they returned home where they were soon met by Chang Long who arrived. they acted as if the mysterious woman had already told them about her, and went on to take the chance to get the information about this world from him. Deep down, Chang Long was shocked as he found that the Ling Clan wasn't normal and was filled with extremely talented people.

This made him believe in that woman's words, but he didn't show it and tried to keep a calm look while telling them the information about this world.

the continent they were now on was called... well, it was called the Chang Island. thats right, this island which was over 50,000 miles from east to south, and around 45,000 miles from west to east was only an island.

This sent chills down Fan Ye and the others who heard such words. but it made sense when they remembered how strong they were. even the weakest Nascent soul realm expert had the power to shake this so-called island. if greater realms existed beyond the Nascent Soul realm, they had to see their continent as an island

there were countless other so-called islands, some had the resources needed to birth a nascent soul realm expert like this one, and others couldn't even birth cultivators. One should know that Ling Han's former home, Earth only had a circumference of around 24,000 miles. 

the fact just this island was bigger than a planet from his world was enough to paint a picture of how big this world was. If this island was a planet, it would be more than 10 times bigger than Earth.

Chang Long background was a unique one, over 60,000 years ago his father escaped to this island. Being a nascent soul, his father had a lifespan of 100,000 years. he spent most of his life trying to find means to return to the Blue Flame continent for revenge.

His father managed to build the royal family within this time while using higher-grade techniques and might to suppress everyone else while at the same time getting a monopoly of everything on this island.

but this island was too small to even help him make the slightest breakthrough. when he was losing hope, an inheritance ground opened, where a cultivation art known as Heavenly Slaughter was found. this allowed him to turn his fate around. although the cultivation art wasn't complete, it allowed him to return to the Blue Flame Continent and slaughter his enemy while growing stronger. he absorbed their blood and killing intent to grow stronger and stronger until he stood as one of the strongest nascent soul realm experts.

But he kept a strong hold on this island, this is because the other part of the cultivation art had yet to appear, while at the same time, he found that many powerful figures had fled to the island, and once these mighty experts died, they left behind their inheritances. He wanted the royal family left behind to also go on to conquer the nearby islands, and see if they too held holy grounds of powerful experts.

Pretty much, this island was a mining ground for them, the people here didn't matter. Chang Long was getting ready to break through to level 3 Nascent soul, but first, he needed his spear to break through to Mid-tier. at that point, with the spear feeding him killing intent his cultivation would grow as he too cultivated the Heavenly Slaughter Cultivation art.

Since his father had gotten the complete Heavenly Slaughter Cultivation Art over 1,000 years ago, he had now been on the rise in the Blue Flame Continent. In the past, he couldn't cultivate past the Nascent soul realm thanks to the lack of a complete inheritance, and now he had it. With 1,000 years' worth of time to grow, his strength allowed him to stand among the strongest powers on the continent.

The Ling Clan went on to get a bunch of information from Chang Long, from the size of the Blue Flame Continent to the major powers there and even information on the islands nearby. but for now, they returned to stabilizing their position as the true overlord on the continent, something which Chang Long was unwilling to see, but when he felt a glare from Afar looking at him when he tried to speak against it, he shot his mouth. he guessed the guardian was nearby and watching.

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, Ling Han was 4 weeks old. form when he was 10 days old to now, Ling Han had been asleep this time. he had truly burdened and pushed his body, leading it to have to sleep for 18 days to recover.

Upon awakening, Ling Han found himself sleeping in the same bed as his mother. He let out a yawn as he felt like he had the best sleep of his life, he looked around for a moment before noticing he was stronger.

He was confused for a moment, before realizing how much time had passed. seeing this, he realized he had grown, and with that came strength. while facing the heavens, his strength at the end of the day was greatly limited by the fact he was 10 days old. 

my senses were also sharper, although I had yet to unlock the sense of smell. compared to 18 days ago, my strength had reached far greater heights

"My baby is awake." Fan Ye said awakened by Ling Han's movement, she smiled brightly at him. She knew the reason behind Ling Han's sleep, how could the Ling clan not hear how a child was eating the lightning from the sky?

"You can't be so reckless like last time alright? your body is still growing, you can't be pushing your capabilities like that." Fan Ye said to which I nodded slightly. My stomach let out a small cry, to which she sat up to feed me.

"You awakened just on time. a week from now is the party for the birth of the Great Ling Dynasty. at that point, you would be crowned as the prince, and your birthday shall be held at the same time." Fan Ye said with a smile, stunning me slightly, but I nodded while enjoying my meal.

'She is strong, system how strong is she?' I thought while my sense of taste quickly broke down everything there was to know about her. I knew she was far stronger than the last time I ate, but I noticed she wasn't strong enough to feed me. at this rate, in a few days, she would die from feeding me.

{thats hard to say host, as her Qi is unique. just on raw power, with no unique effect or anything like that. its power is at level 4 Nascent soul. but if you add the countless effects her Qi has, the fact it bypasses many things and has all types of effects... well, I'm saying level 7 or even level 8 Nascent Soul.} the system said shocking me, as my Qi indeed were powerful.

My Qi was too powerful, although they couldn't compare to mine, they had some degree of my Qi effect. countless abilities fusing together, with all of them enchanting each other, and boosting each other effect, it was a huge boost in power. She was at level 1 nascent soul, but she could skip 6 to 7 levels.

'I should find other means to eat.' Thinking this, I stopped eating, causing her to smile slightly as she understood why I stopped.

"Don't worry, I will find means to grow stronger so I can feed you. but of now, eat," She said softly, to which I frowned slightly.

'system, books on all of the best inheritance grounds near here which my mother can safely explore.' I thought, and in the following moments, within my mind, countless books that held information about the nearby holy ground or inheritances belonging to powerful experts appeared before me.

Among them were even some that had souls of former powerful experts above even the nascent soul realm. these souls were unable to pass on until they found worthy inheritors for what they left behind.

At this, I breathed out sending information about these locations to my mother, shocking her for a moment, before she shot up. how couldn't she when the information I gave her held heaven-shaking things?

These islands were treasure grounds, awaiting those worthy to come along to collect. but now she could head out to collect them. 

"... I'm guessing you will not allow me to go alone?" She asked with a faint smile, to which I nodded slightly. Shaking her head, Fan Ye had me first eat my fill before we went to speak to Ling Fang and the others...
