Chapter 1 : Welcome to the Pure Thunder Sect!

The day Fan Heng acted weird.

"Father?" Fan Bao seemed to be slightly scared since he never experienced this before... never once had Fan Heng been angry, even after Fan Bao did something wrong... He wouldn't have been angry... but now it seemed to be as if he wanted to vent all his build up anger out on Fan Bao...

"You! Don't even dare to call me father!" Fan Heng became angrier and angrier, and his voice became cold. He slowly build up his Energy and wanted to finish Fan Bao off. Fan Bao was terrified, how could he fight a cultivator!? He didn't even understand nor did he know why Fan Heng was mad!

But before he could even speak, Fan Heng had already thrown a punch! However, before the punch could reach Fan Bao... a mysterious barrier blocked the punch completely like it was nothing! No matter what, Fan Heng could never break this barrier! Fan Bao seemed to be even more surprised now! Where did this barrier come from? Then he looked down at his necklace and noticed that it was thanks to the necklace!

Immediately Fan Heng grew wary, but the next action he took surprised Fan Bao. He actually kneeled down and said, "I have done everything you have asked for, now it's time for you to grant me my reward!"

Huh? Fan Bao's head was spinning now. He didn't know what was what anymore... what kind of situation was this!? It couldn't get even more weird right? But right after the necklace began to speak, "You have done a good job... in rising this boy. Now I will reward you like promised 14 years ago..."

What the fuck!? The necklace even can speak!? Fan Bao didn't know what to say or what to do, he just blankly watched on. On the other hand Fan Heng became ecstatic, he had been waiting on this for 14 years. He had been promised to receive a incredible treasure if he raised Fan Bao for 14 years! Of course he wouldn't have believed it at first. But he remembered that the spirit of the necklace actually showed an incredible treasure!

"Come closer..." The necklace said without any emotion. Fan Bao simply stared as Fan Heng came closer and closer. Unexpectedly just as Fan Heng came within the range of 4 meters from Fan Bao. The necklace's spirit flew out and struck Fan Heng immediately! Fan Heng had a shocked expression, but was left with no time at all to react!

SHIIIIIIIIIII!!!

Fan Heng was immediately destroyed in body and soul by the attack of the spirit and he couldn't even scream out, but Fan Bao could mysteriously feel that the spirit was weakened greatly as it expended a lot of energy for that attack just now... It immediately went back into the necklace.

...This was the first time Fan Bao saw someone die before his eyes, but he didn't feel anything since it happened so quickly that he almost didn't even see a glance of it happening. Since Fan Bao wasn't a cultivator his reflexes weren't high enough to see anything happen... but Fan Bao did know that Fan Heng was definitely dead...

Ehh..? What now....

Fan Bao didn't really know what to do currently, he was just way to dazed at the moment. Only after a short while did he finally realize that he actually was in huge trouble currently... If the other clan members found him without Fan Heng, they surely would grow suspicious...

"...Hey, Mr. Necklace? Hellooo...?" Fan Bao whispered to the necklace expecting a reaction, but the necklace didn't answer. It was as if, that attack expended all it's life force... Fan Bao didn't understand anything at all. The only thought in his head currently was to escape this place!

Fan Bao sat down and tilted his head slightly, trying to think of a solution... and what he would do if he did escape...

"Shit! Nothing is coming up... Is this really the end of me?" Fan Bao's eyes slightly became moist, nobody wanted to die this young... Fan Bao especially became teary when he thought about matters regarding his parents.

"Father... and mother... why.. did they leave me here? Was I abandoned...? How... does it feel having true parents?" As a lot of thoughts flashed through Fan Bao's mind, the necklace secretly moved. Light suddenly appeared at the place where the sitting Fan Bao was which surprised him greatly, but before he could even react. He was already completely covered by the light.

....

In a mysterious canyon light shone brightly above the river which dimmed down immediately, but what appeared out of the light was the Fan Bao who was once again surprised greatly. He immediately fell down in the river. In a fluster he immediately tried to get out of the water, but unfortunately with him being unable to swim. It was a futile attempt, but he tried his very best to swim. Unfortunately after a while of swallowing a lot of water and having almost no strength left in his body, he sank down. But right before he lost consciousness, he felt a gentle energy carrying him out of the river...

...

Huh...? Fan Bao woke up and it was already night, he looked at his surroundings in a fluster. How did he get out of the water? As he thought about this, he immediately recalled him feeling a strange energy... but that wasn't important currently.

"Where am I...? This canyon..." The canyon was so huge it was almost impossible to see the top from down here... After a while... he immediately stared at his necklace with a strange look. Although the necklace probably had saved him... why was he teleported above fucking water?

"Mr. Necklace...? Are you awake?" Fan Bao whispered once again. But just as expected no reaction at all came from the necklace... Fan Bao slowly received a headache...

Sure... the necklace might have saved him.. but what now? Wouldn't he just starve to death in this huge canyon!? He was feeling the cold by now... He didn't notice it before, because he was to busy thinking about other things.

"Ah... It's so cold..." Fan Bao's wet clothes made it especially cold for him, he slowly felt the cold permeate through his skin, making his body slowly more stiff. Fan Bao was slowly reaching his limit, this was just a slow cold death... Fan Bao closed his eyes while holding the necklace, hoping that it would save him. Since this was all he had...

This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road. If you spot it on Amazon, please report it.

But the next second followed by a gentle sigh, Fan Bao felt some kind of soothing energy that made his body warm and feel al cozy... it felt familiar to the energy that carried him out of the water. Fan Bao's eyes were still closed, but slowly a warm smile was revealed on his face.

"Mr. Necklace?" Fan Bao thought in his head, did the necklace save him once again? But right after a different voice resounded, "Child, open your eyes." After these words were spoken, Fan Bao's eyes immediately flew open, and he stared at the man who spoke these words...

...

The middle-aged man had a heroic air around him, and Fan Bao could feel it... this man was a cultivator! The man's expression was like an expression of steel, but with kindness hidden in them. It was as if his gaze could pierce and calm any person!

Seeing Fan Bao being in a daze and unable to say anything, the man started a conversation first.

"How did you get here? It isn't possible for a child to get here..." The man questioned Fan Bao, of course Fan Bao didn't actually know how to explain his situation... So he just said that someone brought him here and abandoned him...

"Hmm... so that's how it is... how pitiful.." The man sighed a few times, the world was brutal after all and nothing was fair in this world...

Growl~~

"Hmm? Have you eaten yet?" After asking that question, Fan Bao immediately innocently shook his head. Seeing this the man quietly laughed, "Of course you haven't eaten yet. Here, eat this for now." The man took a small bag out his pocket which confused Fan Bao...

What is he going to give me... to eat. Something that's smaller than the already small bag won't be enough to fill me... But the second after, Fan Bao's eyes brightened. As the man pulled out a huge cooked piece of meat, he said, "I'm sure you haven't seen this before, but this is a space bag. It might look small from the outside... but the inner space is much bigger, other storage treasures like this also exist." After the man explained this, Fan Bao nodded as he understood immediately, and began feasting on the cooked piece of meat.

Fan Bao hadn't eaten yet since morning so he had a huge appetite currently, he was eating so fast it was like chunks of the meat kept disappearing immediately. This surprised the man a bit, but he simply kindly smiled at the sight of this.

"Child, what's your name?" The man asked. Fan Bao immediately gulped the last bit of meat down and said, "My name is Fan Bao... may I ask Senior's name?" Currently the man was thinking of bringing Fan Bao to the Sect or not, since he liked Fan Bao's attitude and how innocent he was currently. Of course he did not know that Fan Bao was a huge troublemaker previously.

"I'm called Yang Nie, but you may call me Elder Yang." Yang Nie said.

"Ah.. okay, Elder Yang you're a cultivator right?" Fan Bao asked, although he most certainly already knew the answer, he wanted to be especially sure. Yang Nie nodded and said, "Are you interested in cultivation?"

The question startled Fan Bao a bit, but he immediately nodded after and said, "I'm deeply interested in it, but I only know that it makes you stronger, what else can cultivation do?" Fan Bao looked at Yang Nie with curious eyes, but a piercing silence remained in the air for a while before Yang Nie began to talk again.

"Cultivation... what you just asked me is very hard to answer, but for now you don't actually have to worry about such things. When you cultivate to a higher realm... you will slowly understand yourself. The only things youngsters like you probably want are strength and immortality." Yang Nie answered.

"Immortality?" Fan Bao seemed to be very surprised, did Immortality really exist? Could one... actually really become Immortal? Yang Nie immediately guessed Fan Bao's thoughts and said, "Indeed Immortality. We cultivators... all seek eternal life, and nobody knows the limits of cultivation yet..."

"Gaining... eternal life...?" Fan Bao was very curious about becoming Immortal, could he ever reach that? It sounded really irresistible... that's for sure. Suddenly Fan Bao remembered something he wanted to ask for a while already.

"Elder Yang, do you know what or where this place is?" He was wondering where this huge canyon was located at. He had never seen such a huge canyon before, since he never actually went out of the Fan clan.

"We are currently at the Grand Mystique Canyon in the Thunder Continent, so we are just at the border of the Southern Thunder Kingdom. And because of the reason that a lot of weird things have happened in this Canyon, It was named the Grand Mystique Canyon, complimenting it's weird aura and huge form itself." Yang Nie explained.

"This is actually also one of the places many Sects come to about once every year, because weirdly enough every year at the same time. A mysterious door would appear..." Yang Nie stopped at that moment and looked at Fan Bao. As expected Fan Bao was currently listening attentively, seeing this Yang Nie smiled and said, "If you want to hear the rest, then follow me to the Pure Thunder Sect." This was an invitation...

Fan Bao had never thought that he would actually be invited to join a Sect! He immediately nodded, not letting this chance slip away. Yang Nie also liked how fast Fan Bao thought and how decisive he was. Yang Nie then revealed a book and handed it to Fan Bao.

"Read this book later. For now let us return to the Sect then, and by the way... you are the second person I have currently invited today. I'm planning to make you two roommates, is that okay?" Yang Nie asked.

"Mhm, no problems!" Fan Bao said immediately after without thinking at all. Yang Nie smiled and nodded, although the other person he recruited today was a huge troublemaker... at least he now had a disciple who was the complete opposite.

Fan Bao currently was very happy, everything was currently going very well for him. He definitely escaped death at least, and.... most importantly he could finally start cultivating! Eternal life was something that sounded really pleasant in his ears, but... something else that's even more important to him... He could finally become stronger!

"Alright hold onto me tight... we are leaving now." Yang Nie said while his aura slowly changed. Fan Bao immediately hold tight onto him, he knew that they would fly from here... because he had already seen others fly back at the clan.

"I wonder... how it feels to fly..." Fan Bao currently wondered how the experience would be, would it be fun? Would he feel freedom? He didn't know, but today he could finally at least get a little taste of it.

Yang Nie looked at Fan Bao, and smiled. He immediately put a protective energy field around Fan Bao, and now...it was time to go!

TWUUUSH!

Yang Nie leaped off the ground with amazing speed, Fan Bao was currently in a daze. What was this inhuman leap!? Luckily thanks to the protective energy field, he couldn't feel the wind force against him, but even then everything was so fast that it was blurry! His eyes simply couldn't keep up! He didn't even know what he was seeing!

They were flying for at least 5 minutes already, and Fan Bao simply didn't know what to think of it... He didn't feel anything nor did he see anything at all!

"Sigh... One day, I will definitely also fly in the sky above..." Another thing Fan Bao was surprised about, was how fast Yang Nie currently was going. Were most cultivators this fast? How long would it take for him to be this fast...

A while later.

They finally arrived, and Fan Bao currently had his eyes and mouth wide open. What he currently was seeing... was just impossible to believe. Was the world always like this outside the clan? He currently saw three huge mountains which spanned several kilometers... in radius... each... the mountain peaks even pierced above the skies... and he even saw several weird looking creatures flying around them!

From this he could already see that the Pure Thunder Sect wasn't included in any Kingdom at all! It was actually huge enough to be considered to be at least a little less than a quarter of a Kingdom in the continent, but it wasn't that far off!

Just as they arrived, several young cultivators with a green robe came out and greeted them, "Welcome back, Head Elder!" They also stared at Fan Bao for a few seconds, but immediately paid no attention to him right after. This was common after all, for new people to come. They bowed and led Yang Nie and Fan Bao to the left mountain.

Yang Nie looked at Fan Bao and said, "Welcome to the Pure Thunder Sect!"
