"Alright now that's done and over with, Walter I have sothing for you to do." Walter appeared in front of Ren and knelt waiting for his orders.
"I want you to protect Mo Feng in the shadows. Of course, you only need to make a move when his life is truly in danger. As long as he doesn't die it's alright to let him have as many near-death experiences as he can. There are many ways to gain strength but to gain experience that could only be forged in battle... Oh right, also find out who the strongest person in the Void Sect is. Well, that's it, just report back to every three months I guess."
"As you wish, my master." After bowing one more ti Walter disappeared from Ren's sight. Ren then looked at his new disciple Fang Mu.
"Alright then, how about we go on a little adventure."
...
Several months had passed since the trial set by the Void Sect in Swallow City happened, and many events had transpired during this ti. The biggest event that happened was the sudden rampage of the Demi-God children of the New Gods. Out of nowhere the silent forsaken children of the Gods suddenly attacked human cities. Anyone below the True Monarch Realm was not their match and many small cities were destroyed.
In response to these attacks, the different Sects and Clans had joined forces to protect the people. Even the legendary Clans that were created by the incarnations of the Strongest Mortal Soul started to reappear. The Heisys Clan, the descendants of the Godly Archer Esan Heisys, and the Raybach Clan, the descendants of the Unwavering Knight, Atlas Raybach have suddenly reappeared in this era.
With all of these Sects and Clans out there dealing with the Demi-Gods the destruction was sowhat lessened. Still, even now there were many unfortunate souls that had t their ends at the hands of these Forsaken Children of the Gods.
...
In a restaurant near the area of the upper realm called the Land of the Gods many rcenaries, bounty hunters, rogue cultivators, and many others were eating and drinking. They have all gathered in this place for the prize the many Sects and Clans had promised for the heads of specific powerful Demi-Gods.
Because of the growing threat of the Demi-Gods, as well as the fear that even the New Gods or the Old Gods might join in the mayhem, the various Sects and Clans were having difficulty fighting back. So in response to the growing threat they had made a bounty system using the heads of the Demi-Gods.
So many people looking for fa and fortune ca to the front lines to battle against the Forsaken children of the Gods. Before heading out to take find their fortune the people would stop by this particular restaurant to gather intelligence as well as to get a good drink and al.
"Hey did you hear the rumor, that the clan of the legendary God of battle, Leonard Tranor's clan has been eradicated by a New God?"
"What?! How could that be? Even among the clans that descended from the Strongest Mortal Soul the Tranor Clan was one of the strongest. The Tranor Clan should have had enough power to fight an Old God, so how can a New God beat them?"
"Rumor has it that, the top powers of the Clan went out to defeat the Old God Irosi. I'm not sure how accurate the rumor is but, it was said that none of the clansn that went into battle against the Old God Irosi was able to return, and those that remain could not defend against the sudden attack from the New God. Well, in the end, it's just a rumor. Even if there was so truth in it, the powerful Tranor Clan wouldn't be so easily defeated. I guess so sort of enemy of the Clan was the one who spread this rumor so that those greedy b*stards that want the legacy of the Tranor Clan would attack."
"I guess you're right... None of those legendary Clans who descended from the Strongest Mortal Soul are normal. Even if we think they have lost, they always sohow find a way to get back up. Small-ti bounty hunters like us, shouldn't asure them with our own understanding." The man who responded drank all of his beer in one gulp.
...
While there were many people in the restaurant talking about the Gods and the legendary Clans that oppose them, there was another interesting topic going around the restaurant.
"Have you heard of the Sect Challenger, Ren?"
"Sect Challenger? That's a rather straightforward nickna. Why are you acting so excited, it's not like there hasn't been so lone cultivator challenging sects before. So what has this guy done, challenge so small-ti sects?"
"No, he's actually doing the exact opposite. He never touches any sect that only has Golden Core Realm cultivators. He would always challenge sects that have at minimum Nascent Soul Realm Cultivators. As of now, he has defeated many sects in the East Region and has never lost. The only ones that he hasn't defeated in that area should be the Void Sect and the Dajiao Sect. Not to ntion he has only been doing this for only several months. He challenges sects once every week."
When the other party heard more about Ren, the more surprised he was.
"Ren? Was there such a powerful guy before?"
"No, that's another thing that's surprising. There are many rumors about who Ren is, but there's no clear picture of where he ca from. The most people found out was that he was once staying at soplace called Swallow City. That's the most I know about him, this guy seems like he just popped out of nowhere."
"Do you think that he could be from the lower realms?"
"The lower realms?... It couldn't be, the guys that co from there are usually at most in the Golden Core Realm. Still... If he truly did co from the lower realms that would explain why no one knows where he ca from."
"So just how strong is this guy, that's he's able to defeat so many powerful sects?"
"That's also a mystery. No one who has seen him could get a feel of what his cultivation is. Many who has t the man has said that no matter how hard they try they could only see him as a normal mortal man."
"Coming from the lower realm, and being powerful I can sohow believe. Beating all the powerful Sects in such little ti, was barely believable. Now you're telling he did all that while still being a mortal? Do you think I'm an idiot or sothing?"
The man smacked his hand on the table as he glared at the person sitting in front of him. The person being glared at simply shrugged his shoulders as he responded.
"Well, that's what I heard. I haven't seen this Ren character so I'm not too sure myself."
...
As the discussion in the restaurant was heating up, a man who was sitting by himself at another table frowned, as he spoke under his breath.
"A mortal man, with unbelievable strength. Could he be..."
