Chapter 5 The Price Of Power

Leo felt a surge of power rush through him and he immediately sat down to ponder what he just witnessed. Sadly the details started to fade from his mind in a matter of seconds all he could remember from the vision was an impossibly strong figure and the same weird phrase that keeps popping up. Nine Seals Eight Pillars One Destiny. Throwing those irrelevant thoughts to the side Leo opened up his Screen.

Leo felt like crying this “training” the System always talks about is nothing short of a death trap. Peak looked confused at the first ecstatic then confused then finally devastated Leo and asked:”Is everything ok?” Leo looked up at her tears in his eyes:”I’ve been marked for further training.” Confused Peak asked Leo:”Isn’t that good? Special training from the System will make you stronger. Isn’t that your goal?” Leo wiped the tears from his eyes:”But I could die!” Peak’s face hardened into a mask of stone:”If you don’t have the guts to bleed to lose to die than you’ll never reach to the peak.” Leo screamed at her:”What good is power if you die!” Leo ran out the door crying. Peak grimaced and sat on the couch with an audible plump.

Leo ran onto the busy streets armies marching up and down the streets. Street vendors taking out all kind of defensive gear and selling them for insanely high prices. Leo sighed he knew how expensive war was in the Multiverse to wage war was to burn money. Most soldiers who enter the army end of either dead or broke spending all their money on one treasure that may or may not help their breakthroughs. Leo found a dark alley to think in. So much has happened so fast he wasn’t a warrior much less some Void Emperor he was just Leo the local janitor with no affinity at all. But Peak’s words really stung he didn’t want to hurt didn’t want to bleed didn’t want to die. Cultivators to Leo always came off as spoiled rich brats with too much power and some were but Wandering Cultivators without a proper backing bled fought and nearly died for their power. Leo sat in silence not speaking a word blocking out all the sounds around him and slept for the night.

Peak wandered in the streets aimlessly Leo was like a new born he’s never seen how life works here crooks and bandits were just as much of a threat to him as the Sword Curse Sect was. Peak used her bloodline technique [God’s Eye] pillars of light sprung around showing the one’s with the strongest strength but that wasn’t what made her bloodline technique strong it was the second factor of it. Peak used ]Heaven’s Eye] the second form of [God’s Eye] it allowed her to gain a bird’s eye view that penetrates all disguises weaker than a Monarch which for a F-Grader as herself was so disgustingly overpowered it was one of the reasons her bloodline was hunted down. Peak pin pointed Leo’s location and used her movement skill [Flash] becoming a flash of light speeding down the rod right into the alley Leo was sleeping in. Peak sighed then pick Leo up and brought him back to her house.
