It's been a while.
My father and mother have grown stronger. I'm now 210 years old, and I'm about to transcend this world—but first, I need to help my family wipe out the Golden Elephant Sect.
I've gained a few more skills from the system. We'll see how effective they are.
The Golden Elephant Sect hasn't made a move in the past few hundred years, but it seems they've been preparing for what's to come.
I hope nothing goes wrong in this war.
"Don't say that, Lin Xian. Nothing will go wrong."
Anyway, the war starts in two days. I must continue cultivating.
Two days later…
Boom…
What?
They're making the first move?
Very bold of them.
It's time for the Golden Elephant Sect to pay the price for killing my family two hundred years ago.
A heavenly golden palm descended and crushed half our sect.
The master of the Golden Elephant Sect arrived.
"Surrender Lin Mu, or die."
"Lin Mu is my father. You can't have him!"
A darker palm fell and obliterated the palace.
It seems the Golden Elephant Sect had dabbled in the ways of demonic cultivation.
All the souls of their fallen soldiers condensed into a single sword—the size of a solar system. It descended upon my family's sect. No one survived but me.
I had no way to defeat such a powerful master.
That sword—solar-system-sized—warped reality itself. Space and time bent under its presence, and for ten milliseconds, the entire universe sized planet stood still.
Its impact was felt across the world.
"Heaven, I need help. I don't want to die here!"
The sky split open.
A golden heavenly palm the size of a galaxy crashed down and crushed the master of the Golden Elephant Sect, shaking the world to its core. Then it vanished, returning to whatever divine entity had sent it.
It's been four years.
My father and mother's souls were erased. I couldn't save them with my current power. My entire sect was destroyed.
I have nothing left.
I must cultivate, so this never happens again.
I must grow stronger.
I must destroy all who dare harm my loved ones.
I must become the Alpha and the Omega.
I must become incomprehensible.
I must become a God.
No matter what—
I will not fail.
For my sect.
For my father.
For my mother.
For Me.
