A Journey Through...

Chapter 29 - Battles At Sword Mountain! (2)

Everyone was alert and the teachers wanted them all to go to sleep until they found out that the gifts they got had some really weird stuff in them.

Ray was looking at the system countdown, 'Damn only 11 hours left!', the kept watch over Ray's room throughout the night but no one came...

...

NEXT MORNING

...

Ray woke up in his own room, 'Haha! Good! I woke up in my own room!', he ran out of his room and saw that everyone was awake, "Sup guys!", "Oh, hey Ray looks like nothing happened!", "Yeah, but that's only for today, what about tomorrow, or the next day, the horror!", "Uh...yeah...anyway, you should be plenty strong to fight your way with this kinda thing.", "Yeah, but you always have to have a precaution when it comes to women, especially crazy ones...", Mubai and Oscar nodded their heads and shook their heads in pity as they have normal girlfriends but Ray has eight crazy women l.u.s.ting over him.

Ray almost forgot to check, 'Oh shit, the gift is almost here, let's go check what it is!', Ray was given a place that he had to go to receive the gift, he soon reached it, it was out the city in a cave with the light glistening from a part of the cave.

Ray waited half an hour before he got another notification, 'Gift inbound in 5...4...3...2...1...0!', 'Oh shit I wonder what it is?!', Ray looked at the wall in the distance as he felt energy gathering in that area, a bright light shot up in the wall and didn't leave for a while but as it began fading away Ray felt the room go-between being scolding hot to deathly cold, it was weird and mysterious but his curiosity ended when he saw what was in the wall, a unique longsword was stabbed into the wall, it had a weird look, the blade itself looked like alligator teeth with the tip of the blade splitting into to separate blade that made an odd pattern, the hilt was a deep red colour that was protruding into the blade itself like it was alive, the pommel, centre and ends of the hilt had a sun-like gem that looked like it had liquid flames in it that moved about in the gems, and dragon like horns on either end of the hilt, Ray looked at the blade and thought, 'No way it cant be...he actually gave me this thing?!!', Ray went up the odd blade and gribbed it from the hilt, the blade was trying to resist but intensifying the heat coming off it but it was no use the flames weren't really effecting him as he had a high resistance as well as having his hands wrapped in his ice, Ray pulled it out of the wall like it was butter, a clear, 'shiiiing', noise came along with the blade as it came out, the blade stopped resisting and in the hilts gem which is the biggest a zero was desplayed, Ray thought, 'Inspect!'-

...

[Inspect]

-Dawnfang/Duskfang: a unique longsword with two distinct variants. Starting at dawn, the person wields Dawnfang; at nightfall, it changes into Duskfang. This sword in origin is Akaviri originally found in ruin but by the request of a higher being was reforged by the goddess Hephaestus with a change in its materials which strengthen it's origin properties that made it from [Emperor tier] to [Fate tier], it was made for the idea of protection fortifying its original properties of fire and ice, the blade itself still keeps its original mindset of killing, and therefore still has its counter of killing 12 things a day to transform the blade, the blade is also still in its inactive state.

...

(A/N: It's fire/frost powers originally did 15 damage at it's highest but now that it's been remade with different materials and gems so the weapon would probably do 150,000+ fire/frost damage and in its superior stage absorbs more life force and energy in general instead of just magicka. Basically, its OP as f.u.c.k and can burn anyone into ashes or freeze them from the core on touch).

Ray paused for a second before shouting, "WOOOOO! This thing is a f.u.c.kin' treasure, for you asura sword, you ain't got shit on this baby, let's see what it can do!", as it was still the daytime it made flames, but it wasn't like the flames in the game, the sword's enchantment veins began to beat like a heart and Ray inwardly said, 'Activate!', the sword began to flare up with crimson red flames, the gems began to create their own mini whirlpool in their gems and sword itself began to beam with a savage red aura, Ray pulled the sword up, and swung it down and then Ray saw it, the whole cave was destroyed and Ray teleported out of there, the attack still didn't end and the streak of flames destroyed the area the cave was in and created a scar in the ground and carried up into the sky, 'Shit! This thing is way more Op than the description said, then it did say it was a fate weapon', the streak of flame carried on into the sky till it disappeared, 'The f.u.c.k did it go?!', Ray looked around him and it looked like a battle between fifty title Douluo's, total devastation the, line in the ground created a chasm in the ground that was still burning, 'Um, when's the flame gonna go out...?', he watched the flame and it wouldn't go out no matter how long he waited, a few hours went by and Ray decided he would try and get rid of the flames himself, it took him hours but he still couldn't rid of it all even if he used his strongest ability it still wouldn't completely go out, 'Well shit...it won't go out...', Ray bought a scabbard that fit for the sword and put it on his back, 'This sword is overkill, but It can kill title Douluo's with a swing or two, way too good!', Ray soon returned to where everyone else was where they were discussing Thunderclap academy, "Oh hey Ray, what's that thing on your back?", "My new sword.", "Oh...wait...when did you ever use a sword, I thought your claws are enough?", "Well you can use more than one weapon but can't be a master of none, I'm proficient in swords and claws, they're both pretty sharp but this sword, oh my it's a beauty.", "Oh? can we see you use it?", "Not now, I already tested it out, it kinda ruined something, don't ask...", Mubai was the one he was talking to and he just nodded his head and didn't ask any more questions.

...

NEXT DAY

...

It was the day of the battle and it was decided that Ma Hong Jun would go first, the opponent tried to use a lightning type defence but was decimated by Ma Hong Jun's delayed attack that blew the opponent up and injured him making him unable to battle, the next battle though was much harder as Ma Hong Hun couldn't get that close to the opponent and using the same attack would mean using too much spirit power for the other opponents so he decided not to defeat the opponent not as quick with a higher use spirit ability, and used the third ability that let him fly above the other's web-like lightning domain so it didn't touch him and then used his strengthened version of his first ability which emits a thick line of fire and he defeated his opponent by continuously using this ability as the opponent was only really good with his domain in place and couldn't use his other abilities if the opponent was too far away or too high.

Tang san and Mubai told Ma Hong Jun that he had to come back and swap over as he would lose the next match with the current reserves that he has and instead got Xiao Wu to go up and fight, she using her teleportation as well as her other abilities defeated another three before she was sent back to rest, she did it with great speed as they didn't expect her to be that troublesome and thought their defence would keep up but sadly no, they could only struggle.

Ray was watching the matches and thought, 'Wait...those guys from the evil-eyed tiger clan are here just in case Mubai has the sage's power but he might not even go on, does that mean he might not even get to showcase the power and they would have to stay for a while longer to watch the other matches, no, this is my chance if I can Mubai to win one fight and come back then they would leave and the power of the sage would be hidden maybe until he has to fight his brother but then I could just take care of it? Nah, gotta keep some things original.'

Ray walked up and said, "Call Xiao Wu back and Mubai you can go in the next match.", "Uh, are you sure.", "Yeah, he should at least do one for today.", "Yeah, I'll go up and win!", Mubai went up and began the fight with the next opponent who tried to restrain Mubai with his lightning but was defeated with the heightened defence that Mubai's rings give him and defeated him with only a slight struggle but apart from that it was a quick fight.

Ray was peeking at the members of the evil-eyed tiger in the stands watching the match who looked unsatisfied and decided to watch the next match as well but Ray could tell that it looked like they were thinking of leaving, 'Damn, why didn't I think of this earlier?!', and then watched the next match which was the fight against the next member who was a much harder fight for Mubai who said he could keep going but eventually he beat him too but wasted a lot of energy on beating him and went back to to the Shrek group, Ray then kept looking at the evil-eyed tiger members who looked like they were going to actually leave this time, 'Phew! Now I don't have to deal with their bullshit!', now it was Ray's turn as they didn't Tang san to fight this one yet, Yu Tianxin came up and smirked whilst saying, "I've been waiting for this battle, my cousin said you were really strong and I want to see that strength!", "Sure! Sure! Let's go ahead with the match!", Roxon nodded his head and told them to begin, "As a spirit king I will let you have the first move.", "I'm told you have a dragon spirit also but can it really contend with our blue lightning tyrant dragon?", 'Pfft! If I unleashed its true self your spirit essence would begin to cry!', Ray kept a straight face and waited for him to attack, he saw him summon up his claws and then use his first attack on Ray which produced rays of lightning onto Ray, they did nothing to him as his body was too strong as well as having a high resistance to all elements, "Fight me seriously.", Ray said and then that's when he let Yu Tianxin attack again it still had no effect on Ray so then he used his dragonification, dark blue wings bigger than Yu Tianxin's own body were protruding from his back and he had horns coming out from his head and shoulders with a blue flame coming out of his head's horns, "Your definitely going to lose now!", he declared but Ray stayed quiet and began his own attack and then said, "Let's see who's lightning is stronger!", he used his [Elemental Electro Fang] and teleported in front Yu Tianxin who's eyes widened and Ray punched him in the stomach but only stronger enough to knock him out, Yu Tianxin flew away but not out of bounds, he neither fell unconscious just gasping for breath and a bit of blood coming out of his mouth, "I-impressive your lightning harmed me to such a degree!" and then he pushed his hand up into the air and lightning mines strengthened by his new form were layered around him and then he slowly got up, "You should just give up! I'm holding back you know!", Ray said which angered Yu Tianxin who said, "No! not till I can't stand!", "Oh, okay!", then Ray went from his neutral face to a smile and then said, "Take one of these then!", he charged his arm up and it began to smoke up and then deep crimson red flames appeared that then roared out and made an animal shape, a cerebrus and shot it towards Yu Tianxin who's eyes widened again as he felt the heat resonating towards him and thought, 'Shit! He really is a monster, he didn't even try!', and then he tried to defend with his light shield but it didn't work and it got burnt through and destroyed and the attack reached him and knocked him into the wall and off the stage, Roxon declared Ray to be the winner.

Later in the day, everyone split up and were told to come back in a bit to celebrate their victory, soon everyone met up except Zhu Zhu Qing, Ray thought, 'Don't tell me...', the teachers went out to discuss what to do as it appears that she hasn't shown up in a while but then they soon came back in with a strange man with sunglasses on and Ray looked at him and thought, 'Shit it's Dai Tian, how the f.u.c.k is this supposed to happen, Mubai didn't show his power, this is retarded! Unless they still suspect and are gonna pull the same trick to make him tell the truth...yeah that's gotta be it! Duck...and just when I thought I didn't have to deal with this shit! [Ridley] buy me a pill that can get rid of the effects of the poison on Zhu Zhu Qing please!', 'Affirmative...you have just lost 1200 system points and bought the [Anti-Parasitic Poison Extinguisher Pill]!', 'Oh good, now I just have to trick the rest of them.', Mubai and Dai Tian then began to talk and explain that Mubai is a prince and the rules of their clan and etc but then he said, "A while back the sage's sacred heir had unusual movements and I began to investigate.", "What has got to do we you being here?", Mubai questioned as he tried to play as non-guilty, "You will see? Hmph! Princess Zhu Qing went out and hasn't returned for a while right? I told my subordinates to bring her back.", Mubai froze and then ran to Zhu Zhu Qing in shock and tried to question her on what's wrong but she couldn't answer, then Dai Tian told them that she was blinded by a devouring spirit dream butterfly and then told them that he was the reason that she was like this, Zhao Wuji tried to attack him in a fit of rage but it didn't work, then all the Shrek members got ready to attack but then Mubai told everyone to stop and shouted at Dai Tian to tell him how to save her and naturally he did with a disgusting and cunning smile but before Mubai could get up and do it he heard a voice in his head, 'Mubai! Stop, I have a way to help her without sacrificing your powers, don't freak out with what I'm about to do', 'Ray?! What do you me-', and then Mubai felt something weird, everything felt wrong, as if something cold had happened, Ray patted his shoulder and he was about to turn around but then Ray kept talking to him, 'Don't move it would feel suspicious to the cunning bastard, take this pill, it's in your pocket and the walk-off but first let's hide your god aura, try not to make a sound.', Ray looked Mubai in the eyes and Mubai gritted his teeth as he felt like his head was being pricked by a thousand thorns, all that he was left with was a migraine by the end of it, 'There I've hidden your god aura, your head should hurt but that's because that your spirit essence in your sea of conscience and your natural aura was effected along with it, not even title Douluo's would be able to tell that it's there, be more cautious from now on though, wait for me to go back and then you can leave, keep your shocked and angered face though.', 'Thank you, brother, Ray.'

Ray walked back and the pair went back into their stances as nothing happened, and then everything went back to normal, Mubai walked out and everyone waited back for his arrival the teachers protested and Flender said he was gonna beat him up and then Yu Xiaogang questioned him Dai Tian on why he would do this and the answer is that he didn't like Mubai for the type of king he would be, 'Yeah right, King? He's gonna be a f.u.c.kin' god, the king my ass!' Ray thought inwardly.

Yu Xiaogang, in the end, decided to let them go and then they disappeared and the rest of the Shrek team went to reason with Mubai and ask if their was another way and Ray fell on one knee and smiled as they were gone and thought, 'I hope Dai Tian likes my icy surprise!', Yu Xiaogang saw Ray smirk and kneeling and said, "Are you okay? Why are you smiling? Did you do something?", "Hm? Let's just say that I left Dai Tian a present before he left, oh and don't worry about Mubai he didn't lose his sage powers.", and then Ray quickly got up, popped a pill in his mouth and walked out of the room, all the teachers were still in the room and heard what Ray said and all shouted, "What?!!", and ran after the rest to question Ray on this matter.

Mubai sat down Zhu Zhu Qing and then the rest showed up, "Mubai, you're really going to sacrifice your godly powers to save Zh-", Tang san stopped as he saw something peculiar, Mubai was smiling and then he saw him take something out of his pocket, a purple and white shiny pill and saw him force it down Zhu Zhu Qing's mouth, "Uh, Mubai what was that?", "Something Ray just gave me.", everyone was confused as they didn't see Ray move at all, then Ray came in and they all gave him a questioning look, and then the teacher's came in and Yu Xiaogang said before anyone else, "What did you do?", "Yeah, we never saw you give something to Mubai?", Ray then explained how he stopped time for a bit within the room and then gave Mubai a pill and planted a spirit skill on Dai Tian that would explode in the next 3 minutes without him knowing.

Ray then said, "The only downside to this ability is that it's really draining...", Yu Xiaogang looked at Ray breathing abnormally through his mouth and nodded his head and said, "But are you actually okay?", "Hm? Yeah, I just need rest, I already took a pill that would help so rest is all I need.", Yu Xiaogang nodded his head and then Tang san went up to him with curiosity and asked, "What pill did you give to Mubai?", this made all the people in the room ears perk up and Ray said, "I gave him Anti-Parasitic Poison Extinguisher Pill.", Tang san thought about this and then had a shocked to amazed to questioning gaze and said, "Thar pill would take at least a week to make and the ingredients to make it are absurdly rare and expensive, how did you give him that so quick?", "I prefer always being ready, so I got some of my stronger subordinates to go search for ingredients and the seeds for any rare ingredients in the world, I have a ingredients garden and with my control over time I was able to speed up the process for them to grow and age them a bit, the lowest age for anything I have should be around 400 years old and I'm a cautious person, so I make a lot of pills for every occasion", Ray wasn't entirely lying, he does, in fact, own an ingredients garden but its kept in his main base which isn't kept here and rather closer to the capital of the heaven dou empire, he just doesn't use the ingredients from there as he would rather buy from the system and he's not all that great at creating pills.

After he was done with his explanation, Mubai then got up and walked up to Ray and gave him a hug and started to shed tears and said, "Thank you, brother Ray, for this I have nothing to give off equal value, not even my life would be of the same!", "Then how about you just stay alive and get stronger so then I can see yo beat the shit out of Dai Tian.", "It's a promise!"

Zhu Zhu Qing quickly got up and shouted, "Mubai!", he let go of Ray and went to be by her side and held her hand.

...

DAI TIAN POV

...

Dai Tian's subordinate said, "Did you feel that already? Our prince has already sacrificed his power.", "Mission accomplished, we can head home to star lou now.", "Hmph! Absurd! The sage ascended upon our clan again after a thousand years but chose such a useless person as his heir, to let the sage's power be so short-lived, what a pity, wha-", Dai Tian couldn't say anything more as he felt spirit energy go off around him but didn't know where he then felt something on himself and his eyes widened with fear...

An explosion of ice went off that attacked all three of them and injured them badly and he shouted, "W-who dares?!", he thought about, he felt spirit energy go off near him and then he was attacked, his mind went into shock and he eventually got the thought that he was attacked by a title Douluo, only someone as powerful as that could attack him and leave without him being to do anything, he sweatdropped even when parts of his body was frozen and thought, 'But I didn't offend anyone?!', little did he know that the one who attacked him was Ray who put him in an illusion that made him think he sensed spirit energy go off nearby and then attacked with an ice explosion but it was only the latter he wasn't attacked by a title Douluo but Ray.

...

SHREK TEAM

...

Ray was smiling as the atmosphere got back to being warmer and even more so when he felt his attack go off as a success, he had a wide smile and then everyone went outside and he went to rest, Mubia and Zhu Zhu Qing stayed in the room for a bit longer before Mubai himself left and let Zhu Zhu Qing rest on her own.
