Heavenly Opposers

Time seemed to have been stopped as Xiao's entire being rocked with newfound enlightenment, Xiao could feel it, he had gasped something but it was blurry and unclear, seemingly fading and reappearing, the injuries he sustained healed as his mind wandered between what could be and what isn't

Xiao's Soul's Core stimulated, releasing soul energy that clarified his mind, focusing on himself, Xiao quickly adapted into a cultivation state, his Soul Sense spread, rapidly assimilating to the nature of his enlightenment, like this, time began to quickly pass, from seconds to a few minutes to an unknown amount of time

Without any sense of time, Xiao felt as if a long time and no time had passed at all, but what Xaio didn't know was that deep within his body his blood started show some changes, during the rebirth the shackles that was placed in his blood was removed, granting them freedom...

But unaware during this duration, his mental psyche seamlessly also began expanding into something greater, his soul quivered as its quality was upgraded but suddenly a pulling force sucked his body, instantly bringing him into a minor dimension

The next moment, Xiao instinctively opened his eyes, feeling a mix of curiosity and anticipation, and what his eyes caught of completely awed him, Xiao couldn't even blink anymore as he sent his gaze all around this new scenery, starting with the ground, there truly wasn't an end in sight. Even when spreading his soul Sense out, Xiao still didn't catch the limit of this separate dimension

The ground itself was a strange yet mystical mix, It was a very translucent red, nearly formless as if there was no ground at all, but mixed within was the most gorgeous black glow Xiao had ever seen, comparatively, when gazing at the skies, it was incredibly different to a jarring degree, one wouldn't think the sky or ground was related in any way

The sky was simply a harsh, blue and grey mix of colors, seemingly portraying a deadly feel, bright red, luminous blue, piercing yellow, radiant purple, and a bunch of other vibrant colors crashed together, creating an almost blinding extravagant scene

Standing here Xiao felt lost, here he felt forgotten, no it would be better to say that that the world was overwhelming him, it was making him feel small and worthless and the most quiver thing was that when he spread his sense he could feel a sense of energy he had never felt before but the wider part was that he could tell that this energy was made from the combination of several energies and among them he felt Qi, soul and spirit and mental energy

'How's this possible?!'

For a moment sheer incredulity filled Xiao's mind, this was more surprising than him being transported to the past but Xiao quickly shook his head as he forcefully calmed his mind down, his mind started calculating as he tried to make sense of what was happening and for that, he needed information, sensing the surrounding Xiao understood one thing

This environment was utterly chaotic!

simply breathing in the air gave Xiao a considerable sense of pressure, in this place Xiao felt as if his body was filled with lead, it was the feeling you get when you are not 100% in control of your body, Xiao could feel a sense of rejection filling his body, restricting his momentum, huge powerful winds of powerful energy flashed causing Xiao a step back but it was then that he heard a sound

"Um? someone actually made it here?..."

The voice was raspy and Xiao was unable to tell if it was a man or woman, just as the voice was heard the winds stopped, the pressure that was threatening to crush him disappeared, Xiao's ears burst as blood started to flow out of his ears, just the voice was filled with such power that him even with his current cultivation couldn't take it

Feeling curious Xiao opened his eyes and as he did an unnatural scene filled his eyes, there in front of him a throne had appeared, somehow within this chaotic and colorful world, this dark and black throne seemed fit and apt, the other thing Xiao noticed was that the throne was made completely out of swords!

And sitting on this beautiful throne was a person that was completely covered with a cloak, nothing could be seen about this person, he/she sat there upright and prideful, behind the throne floated 5 swords in a circular fashion and it was then that Xiao noticed something peculiar, the entire world had turned to swords!

The ground the sky and everywhere he looked was surrounded with swords! all of them were trembling and bending under the person that sat on the throne, it was as if they were paying respect to their king, for a moment Xiao was frozen as he gazed at all this and it was then the figure on the throne raised its head, as it looked at Xiao

A pair of beautiful blue eyes was only seen, deep within the blue eyes the patterns of several swords clashing appeared, it was such a beautiful seen that Xiao was monetary lost within it but he was able to soon regain his bearing as he shook his head and looked at the blue sword-like eyes that were only seen within the dark cloak

"Hmm.....a Gravewalker of the worldiard clan?"

Its voice was heard again but this time a hint of confusion filled its voice, thankfully this time the being controlled its voice hence it didn't hurt Xiao but its words confused him, Gravewalker? Worldiard? what the hell were those?

"I noticed that your own self is at odds with your age."

The being on the throne spoke again, confusing Xiao, he took a moment before he replied

"My own self?"

"Yes, It's impossible to lie to me in my world, this is a place that strips off all disguises to reveal one's truest self"

"… Is that so? That would explain why I feel a little relaxed here"

Xiao nodded in realization as he finally knew what the unnatural feeling constantly nudging him was, the being eyed Xiao intently as the light in its sword-like eyes intensified, a few seconds passed by before it spoke

"Tell me Gravewalker, wha-"

"Not Gravewallker, the names Xiao"

"...."

For a moment all the swords in the vicinity trembled, feeling anger for the disrespect the one on the throne faced, but the one on the throne just chuckled as it spoke

"Gravewalker you haven't earned the right for me to speak your name, go, first survive the ordeal that will come to find you, you seemed to have gone through a lot but your journeys just beginning"

"If you survive this, I shall call upon your name and I shall keep the promise that was lost within the sands of time, for now, take this as a meeting gift"

Saying so it pointed its covered hands towards Xiao and as soon as it did a sword that was stuck on the ground floated from the ground as it flew towards Xiao's chest, Xiao tried to move his body but he found that he was locked in place! hence he could only watch as the sword struck his body as it was absorbed into him

And as soon as it finished Xiao felt his body fading as it was pulled into his body, soon the eternal feeling of his body being pulled back filled him and soon he disappeared, leaving the calmness back within the world of swords, the being on the throne gazed at where Xiao was before its gaze broke through the barrier of space and time landing on something

"Show me Gravewalker, show me the will of the weak"

Its mummers filled the world as the swords trembled in its anticipation.
