47 Chasing Xu Que (2/2)
The Bone Burial Pond in the center of the bone island was covered with jades. The little skeleton was sitting by the pond and watching the two coffins, his eyes upset. An old man arrived and recognized the parents of this child as his precursors. He himself was midget size even smaller than the kid in front of him. The old man stayed on the bone island and taught the little skeleton a lot of common knowledge, secrets and marvels of power Upanishads, and Dark Energy. This old man was one of the Territory Ancestor Realm experts of the White Bone Clan. He was also a famous expert in this vast sea of stars. Under guidance of this old man kid's body was refined in a special secret bone pond to make him strong. Old man claimed that this kid is the luckiest star of their clan.
Tu Shi Qi's report finally reached the ears of this Old man that Shi Yan is holding Life Original Symbol from Power Upanishad Symbol Tower.
”Shi Yan?” The little skeleton was cultivating in the pond. His eyes brightened, ”He's the one I told you about. He got me back here and he told me that he would help me wake up my parents!” Old man thought this event to be predestined and immediately asked for directions from Tu Shi Qi's group.
This little kid was actually cousin of this old man. Old Man's name was Hiro. After this kid was born, Hiro's uncle and aunt went dormant. They haven't even named this kid yet. But there's no hurry when they wake up first thing shall be naming ceremony of this kid. After telling kid about his whereabouts he dived in Sea of Annihilation to locate Shi Yan.
Emperor Sea Shark, Neptune, and Ferrell have come already. Today, Hiro decided to come too. Forefather Dragon Lizard looked excited as he can learn Dark Energy secrets to reach Territory Ancestor Realm himself after watching battles of other Territory Ancestor Realms.
Sea Clan't Emperor Sea Shark was moving in his palace by making it invisible under seabed to locate the Shi Yan as well. Suddenly they noticed that sea clan members died in certain spot. The palace started moving in that direction.
Deep inside a sea area Shi Yan is burying five dead sea clan members who he encountered recently. Mei Ji was getting closer to Territory Ancestor Realm and today she tried converting her Incipient Extent into Territory which will become her foundation for Territory Ancestor Realm. After parting from Dragon Lizard they have killed several warriors from various clans. Shi Yan sucked all of their essence qi and shared with Mei Ji thus raising her cultivation like rocket. Being happy they again immersed in romantic acts with each other, then continued their journey. After moving for long time they didn't encountered any other warrior from any clan. It felt like calm before the storm to them. They raised their vigilance. Several days later they encountered some jelly fishes, and Shi Yan suspected them to be acting as eyes of some strong experts. Noticing this Shi Yan hurried but they bumped into an invisible barrier and slowly a grand palace emerged which was housing sea clan warriors. An old man was standing on highest tower of palace which Mei Ji recognized as Emperor Sea Shark. Emperor Sea Shark had agreed with Neptune that if he found Shi Yan and Mei Ji, he would tell Neptune first. However, Emperor Sea Shark had his own plans. He asked for Tower and Symbol and promised to leave them alone after that. Emperor gave them 15 minutes to think.
Shi Yan asked about this man from Mei Ji and she told that he is another Territory Ancestor realm expert from Sea Clan and also friend of Neptune who's hunting them, but still it seems their friendship is not good enough or Emperor Sea Shark won't be talking with them and giving them options for survival. Mei Ji also told that she may provide challenge for Emperor Sea Shark but ultimately will lose. However Shi Yan who has swallowed lots of soul altars and essence qi, wanted to try fighting against this territory ancestor realm to check out his own limits. Another reason for this rash decision is that Absolute Beginning Symbol is merged in his co-soul and removing it equals suicide, and he doesn't know any Absolute Beginning Creatures techniques to separate even tower from himself. So Mei Ji told Emperor to give them a chance through sparring. If they lose they will agree to the terms of Emperor. Emperor Sea Shark showed disdain towards this decision of the duo and send a sea clan member named Datuk, Second Sky of Immortal Realm, to teach Shi Yan some manners, as it will be overkill if he personally fought. Mei Ji also warned Shi Yan that he shouldn't kill his opponent so as they don't fall on bad side of Emperor Sea Shark. Actually Shi Yan wanted to fight so as to use his space powers to make their escape from this place. However he was not sure if his space power will work under the sea water due to huge pressure of water here. Datuk greeted Shi Yan politely before their battle. Shi Yan also did same. And as soon as battle started he used his Space Power Upanishad which generated space sabers and was cutting everything in the sea. Emperor Sea Shark was amazed and he launched his own attack against the space sabers to save Datuk. This made serious backlash on Shi Yan and he spurted out mouthful of blood. His attack earlier was able to open space slit but Emperor's attack dispersed everything and resealed the space slit. Emperor ordered Datuk to back off and introduced another sea clan member for this battle, Hu Jiao who was at Third Sky of Immortal Realm who cultivated Wood Power Upanishad and he was able to suppress Shi Yan in beginning of their battle after converting himself into a tree. Mei Ji was getting tensed with seeing the suppressed state of Shi Yan. Other elders of sea clan tried to convince to kill this future danger, but Emperor Sea Shark seems to have sensed some old connection with this boy.
A skull sized ball was approaching around this battle area, which were eyes of Ferrell (just like jellyfish were eyes of Emperor Sea Shark). The hundred meters vines from Hu Jiao who was currently in his tree form were lashing on Shi Yanand cracking his skin. He was filled with cuts and gashes butsurprisingly not bleeding. Mei Ji was surprised and can't look Shi Yan in such pain so she suggested that they should surrender instead. Sea clan members were admiring the tough will of this young man. At this moment Shi Yan used his blood sword but he thrust it into his own abdomen. Then he pulled sword out and all eyes on sword got activated as if sword is now fully powered up with energy. He said to Mei Ji that they have some chance of succeeding in their escape.
Earlier Shi Yan was only using defensive moves and never used any offense that's why Hu Jiao always appeared to be having upper hand. Actually Shi Yan was just testing his body's toughness. He ignored the battle and instead planned to tear apart space itself through his powered up sword, and escape from this place as they are no match for Territory Ancestor Realm expert even if Hu Jiao is taken down. He started using his offensive Death seal to wither the leaves and vines of Hu Jiao and situtaion is overturned now and Shi Yan is suppressing Hu Jiao instead. Sea clan members were discolored with sudden outbreak of Shi Yan. Suddenly he used his blood sword to along with Space Upanishad, and alerted Emperor Sea Shark. But this time Ferrell has arrived on the scene too and he claimed that he won't let Shi Yan escape. Ferrell started bragging about his destroying Phantom Clan's Base. He also pointed that as Mei Ji and Shi Yan killed many people from different races, so the Phantom Clan won't be able to help them anymore.
Mei Ji was enraged at sight of Ferrell, she wanted to take her revenge for his innocent clan members that were slaughtered by this Ferrell. After some more bragging, Ferrell, agreed with Emperor Sea Shark that he will kill Mei Ji and Shi Yan both and later when other territory ancestors arrive they will decide about the distribution of tower and symbol.
Shi Yan was now really worried as only with Emperor he has only 30 percent chance of escaping but now with coming of another powerhouse he has lost all chances. Now he is doomed..
But suddently something strange happened. Emperor Sea Shark has other plans, he attacked Ferrell instead saying Shi Yan to join hands. Sea clan didn't know the reason but they responded to the call of Emperor and were ready to help Shi Yan. He told Shi Yan and Mei Ji to run immediately.

In Strongest vs. Scheming Cosmos, Lin Fan has finally arrived in East Continent chasing after Xu Que. He has found that even in this continent he is as famous as hell for his notoriety. Xu Que is wanted as 'Lightning Rogue'. He was pissed off at this and started using his lightning spells too to piss off other cultivators.

Lin Fan is also aware about the Jiang Hongyang News that whole East Continent is trying to kill her. He got pissed off that a lonely woman is being hunted by so many powerful people just because of a stupid cursed fate as he didn't believe in such kind of fate too just like Stonexia or even Xu Que as all of them had some connection with modern Almightoronia Earth. It's a good way to gain popularity to save a damsel in distress, he thought. So he started searching for Jiang Hongyang too, and he also got to know about her heavenly tribulation so he went towards Celestial Burial Valley after eavesdropping on Holy Sons of big families and then following them as they were going towards that direction too.
Along the way he was throwing lightning bolts on cultivators to attract more and more enemies and gained a name 'Lightning Rogue 2'.
And finally he reached there too when others 100 people were chasing Xu Que and his group. Although they were disguised but he had same target as those 100 people as they were chasing him claiming him as 'Lightning Rogue'. Knowing that he himself is 'Lightning Rogue 2' he was even more enraged so he wanted to mess with his part 1 to claim number 1 spot himself. He also got mixed up in that group and started hitting lightning bolts on their party. Xu Que was enraged with this he started cursing. Lin Fan was also not less he retorted same way back with abuses. Xu Que used his Buttface to start spitting competition with Lin Fan and both shameless guys kept spitting on each other and dodged every shot of saliva and rest of those chasing cultivators were bathing in that spits...Now crowd already considered both of them as their enemy no. 1 after Jiang Hongyan.
