Boom!! There is fire and smoke everywhere. Two shadows are fluttering back and forth, and every time they come into contact a loud boom is sounded off. The two shadows separate and show their true form. On one side there is giant gray ape whose body is covered up in different sizes cuts and leaking a lot of blood. On the other side is a young human who look no older than 20. You can barely tell he has brown skin from the non blooded parts of his body. He is tall and lean with a compact build with lots of blood covering him. His face is sharp and even though he look like he can die at anytime he is showing a stoic face. You can't tell the color of his hair because it's covered in blood.

   "How dare you destroy my home!!" bellowed the ape in askance. The young man continues to look at the ape with a stoic face for a few minutes; then, he started to gigle which turned into a full blown laugh. "It seem you don't remember me Mr.Ape?," the young man ask with sarcasm. The ape looked at the young man for a few seconds with confusion then after a while his jaws dropped. Stuterring the ape ask, "How can you still be alive? I seen when you was stabbed and pushed over the cliff?!"

   "This could have all been avoided if you kept your mouth closed last time," the man said while smiling for the first time since the two met. The ape shivered because he knew he made a mistake back then. The young man looked around the area which was filled with dead bodies of different sized and colored apes. There was trees that were on fire, also precious looking mystic plants are scattered on the ground. There are large patches of grass missing with the majority that still attached to the ground being scorched.

   "I have been checking the area while we been fighting," said the young man, "but, there have been no signs of there being anybody here except us." The ape facial expression changed and he sensed the surrounding and found they are really alone. Its facial features went from confusion to anger an SD scared. "They dare to leave me after promising to help!!" He bellowed while panting.

"It's time for me to stop playing and get serious, and I want to thank you for the exercise," said the man while laughing and stretching his arms. The air around him start to distort a little while a vague sensation can be felt from his body. "How can a solid core emit a dao?" the ape asked with shock. 'He is not even at the nascent soul realm, but he touched the Dao. The energy he emits is higher than a PEAK solid core and almost the same as nascent soul but not quite'. 

   The ape was about to turn and run, but the young man appeared in front of it and threw a fist at it head. The ape barely twisted its head and body but there was still a graze left on its cheek. The ape kicked out it leg hoping to great some distance between the two of them. Instead of backing up; the young man stepped forward while turning his body sideways and letting the kick pass him. His hand stretched foward with the pointer and middle finger strectched while the others are curled (sword finger). The space around his finger started to shake and sharpness could be felt from it. The ape tried to dodge with its leg still streched out but was still hit in the side. The two pass each other.  The ape look at the wound it got with horror. "Imposible how can you use space and sword Dao while only as a puny solid core!!" the ape yelled hysterically.

"Try to dodge this then," the man said. He gathered qi and layered it on his hand. The sharpness was increased and could be seen as leaves were shredded as they got near. That was not all, because something strange started to happen. The leaves near the young man will disappear and appear at different spots close by. He raised his sword finger and slached at the ape while thinking the phrase 'Horizon Cutter'. The attack looked like it ignored the space and distance between the two to appear in front of the ape. 

   As the attack is about to hit the ape, the young man turned around and raised his head to look in the sky, which was turning reddish and yellowish. His eyes glazed over as if reflecting about the past. "To think that I came this far," as he said this  sighed.
