Against The Gods With An Anime System

Ling Kun, respected elder of the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region. Trusted by Sword Master of the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region, Xuanyuan Wentian, to act as the benevolent face of the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region and to show the nations and people of the Profound Sky Continent that they, as one of the four Great Sacred Grounds, are their righteous protectors, who will protect them from any and all foreign dangers. While in fact, Ling Kun was selected by Xuanyuan Wentian to be an Elder because of his scheming, ruthless nature and his extensive knowledge and experience. It was this same nature that Xuanyuan Wentian himself possessed that resulted in Ling Kun being granted the position of Elder. Just like Xuanyuan Wentian, Ling Kun would do ANYTHING in order to gain more power and he would sell out, kill, kidnap and humiliate everyone in order to gain more power, more treasures and more favors with Xuanyuan Wentian and anyone else who he thinks he can use for his own personal benefit.

"So, Ling Kun. You have finally decided to drop that so called benevolent act of yours and show your true colors. Took you quite a while. I was getting bored waiting for you to finally act." Said Mesa as he walked through the forest towards him.

Getting back up, while being wracked with pain throughout his body, Ling Kun was enraged. His original plan was in pieces. His plan to use the element of surprise to surprise Mesa and suppress him using his strength and position in order to force him to give him the Boosted Gear had severely backfired. In fact, his entire element of surprise was turned on its head and directed towards him instead. It was he, who in fact fell for Mesa's trap.

"So, you've seen through me huh. Well congratulations. I wonder what could have given me away." Said Ling Kun in a mocking tone, still convinced that he was the one who had the upper hand.

"Ohh, it's very simple. You may have had those sheep eating out of your hand and worshipping you like you're some kind of a f.u.c.k.i.n.g god. But I saw through that benevolent act of yours instantly. I know that Xuanyuan Wentian has only made you an Elder because you're a scheming, conniving piece of shit. Just like him." Said Mesa nonchalantly. The way he just spoke about him and Xuanyuan Wentian made Ling Kun angry.

"Junior!! You're courting death!!" Yelled out Ling Kun as he flew towards Mesa with his personal sword, the Tyrant Profound Realm ranked Blue Jade Sword, a longsword that was made of blue crystal. It was rumored that it is one of the sharpest swords on the Profound Sky Continent and that it would never lose its sharpness. Putting all his Profound Energy into it, Ling Kun created a sword aura around it of unprecedented sharpness, that would pierce and slice everything it came in contact with. But when he arrived in front of Mesa, he saw him raise his right hand, with the golden gauntlet on it, to his c.h.e.s.t and clenched it into a fist. The purple stone in it glowed with a bright purple light and unleashed a shockwave that flung Ling Kun away violently. After his very rough landing, Ling Kun looked at Mesa with bloodshot eyes filled with fear and anger. He especially looked at the purple stone on Mesa's golden gauntlet. The amount of power that Ling Kun felt coming out of that purple stone was immense, more than anything he'd felt before. But before he could say anything, Mesa appeared above him and pressed his foot onto his c.h.e.s.t. No matter how much Ling Kun struggled, he couldn't get Mesa's foot of his c.h.e.s.t. And his attempts at trying to stab him failed, when Mesa pinned the hand that held the sword down with his other foot.

"You know, it's very rude to interrupt people when they're talking, I hadn't finished yet. So where was I… Ohh right, piece of shit. You are just a piece of shit, just like Xuanyuan Wentian and the only reason your Mighty Heavenly Sword Region even provided the rewards for the tournament, was to score some good PR points with the people of the Profound Sky Continent. I reckon the true reason that you came here, is to seal away that demon again. But since the re-sealing ceremony and the tournament just so happened to occur within the same time period, you've decided to use it to get rid of some junk of the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region by disguising them as Tournament rewards and to enjoy basking in the worship these people have for you. But I am not like those sheep. I saw through you at first glance and I knew you would eventually come for me, for you are a true opportunistic bastard that will do anything to obtain power." Said Mesa to a disgruntled Ling Kun.

"So what, you think you're at the top now?! Go ahead and kill me! The Venerable Sword Master will immediately know who did it and he'll invade and destroy this pathetic little nation and kill every last person within it. So go and ahead kill me. That is if you dare!" Said Link Kun arrogantly.

"I know that asshole will know how you died if I kill you. I know that you have a Soul Imprint on you, that will transmit the images of the last 30 seconds of your life to that bastard. Even the shmucks of the Four Major Sects are capable of implanting a Soul Imprint on their people, let alone someone from the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region. And if I leave you alive, you'll do anything you can to make my life and the lives of those I care about a living hell. You'll definitely tell Xuanyuan Wentian about everything you saw and he'll come and invade the Blue Wind Empire anyway. So doesn't matter what I choose, I'll end up with Xuanyuan Wentian coming for my head either way. This truly is a catch 22, wouldn't you say." Said Mesa nonchalantly, to Ling Kun's great amus.e.m.e.nt.

"So you understand huh. Doesn't matter what you do, the Venerable Sword will come for your head either way. But it's too late for regrets now, boy! You should've handed over the Boosted Gear when I told you! It would have saved you a lot of pain and saved the people of this pathetic nation a lot of suffering." Said Ling Kun, confident that he was in control, even in his current perilous situation.

"Hahahahahahahhahahah...."

"WHAT'S SO FUNNY?!" Yelled out Ling Kun in anger.

"That face of yours. You seriously still think that you're in control. Get the f.u.c.k out man. I am in control of this situation. Always have been in control of the situation. Cause unlike what you're thinking. I have a third choice. For you see, I am able to manipulate people's memories. So I can torture you here to my heart's content, erase your memories and then replace them with fake memories. That way I can let you live and you won't cause me anymore problems. Doesn't that sound great." Said Mesa with a creepy smile on his face. But Ling Kun didn't believe Mesa, not one bit.

"Stop lying, kid. There is no way you can do that. And even if you could, my mental prowess are far too strong for you. Did you really think you are the first one with some type of mental interference Profound Techniques? I have long since prepared myself to face the mental interference Profound Techniques from those of the other Sacred Grounds. And their mental interference Profound Techniques are far more superior than yours could ever hope to be. So dream on kid." Said Ling Kun confidently.

"Ohh yeah. Well tell me. What is the name of the Sword Master of the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region?" Said Mesa much to Ling Kun's confusion.

"What?! What are you talking about! His name is… his name is... it's.... What was… his name… again." Said Ling Kun slowly as he realized what just happened and directly looked into Mesa's Sharingans with astonishment and horror.

"Those eyes. You're doing it with those demonic eyes, aren't you?!" Yelled out Ling Kun.

"DING-DING-DING-DING-DING!!! Look who finally figured it out! And this merits a reward, I'd say. What did ask me earlier? What this thing on my right hand was, right. Well, let me tell you. This thing on my right hand..." Said Mesa as he clenched his right hand and brought the Power Stone right above Ling Kun's head.

"…is going to hurt like hell." He said and then pressed the Power Stone into Ling Kun's head.

"AAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!" Screamed out Ling Kun in absolutely agonizing pain. The area on his head where the Power Stone was being pressed in, started to blacken and crack. And just before Ling Kun passed out, Mesa withdrew the Infinity Gauntlet. In a desperate ploy to get Mesa of him, Ling Kun blasts out all his Profound Energy in a Profound Energy aura blast. Much to his shock, Mesa was still on top of him and smiling creepily at him.

"Nice try Ling Kun, but that's nowhere near enough to get me of you. Now then, shall we continue?" Said Mesa and then continued pressing the Power Stone into his body. And this continued on, he would press the Power Stone into Ling Kun just long enough before Ling Kun passed out from the pain. Then, he would force a Senzu bean down his throat to heal all the damages and repeat the process, but on another spot on his body, like his stomach, his legs, his back and so forth. And this went on for hours, until Ling Kun was so mentally exhausted that he didn't scream anymore. At that point, Mesa had decided to call it a night.

"Well Ling Kun. That's the end of tonight's torture session. Let's get you back to your room and fiddle with those memories of yours a little." Said Mesa as he hauled Ling Kun on his shoulder and warped out of there using Kamui.

Arriving in Ling Kun's room, Mesa shoved another Senzu bean down his throat and then opened his eyes. Using his Sharingan's, he made him forget everything that happened today. After that, he activated his Mangekyo Sharingan's to fiddle with Ling Kun's memories.

KOTOAMATSUKAMI

(A.N.: Mesa bought the Kotoamatsukami for 250,000 system credits and it's upgrade to its Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan version for another 250,000 system credits. If you want to know what it looks like, click on the following link: i.imgur.com/TNZj79j.png.)

Using the Kotoamatsukami's near absolute power of mind-control, he gave Ling Kun a set false memory of the day's happening. Mesa basically kept everything the same, with a few minor changes. But he implanted an order into his mind that Ling Kun would follow: 'Pay no attention to what Mesa Uchiha does.'

(A.N.: Those who are not satisfied with this and have an idea or a false memory. Please share them as a paragraph comment on this paragraph and not as a chapter comment. I will check the paragraph comments for ideas and not the chapter comments. If you have placed it in the chapter comment, I will not look at it.)

After everything was done, Mesa teleported back to his room and lied down on his bed.

"Well, everything went according to plan. That was some good thinking of you Jasmine. You instantly saw through that benevolent act of his and planned this whole thing out. Good work." Said Mesa to Jasmine who came out of the Sky Poison Pearl and sat next to him on the bed.

"Of course I saw through that benevolent act of his. I have experience with Qianye Fantian, the Realm King of Brahma Monarch God Realm and father of that bitch, Qianye Ying'er. That bastard is the most cunning, evil and biggest two-faced piece of shit in existence. When I saw that Ling Kun act all benevolent, I instantly saw through it and I knew he would come for you eventually. And I knew that with the Power Stone, he didn't stand a chance against you. Hell, even without the Power Stone you could've beaten him. It's a good thing you can manipulate his memories using the Kotoamatsukami. And like you said, it's too early to face off with the Sacred Grounds." Said Jasmine.

"Yuuuppp!! Still too early. There's still the Seven Nations Ranking Tournament in the Divine Phoenix Empire. And I really wanna stick to those arrogant Phoenix Empire assholes that those Phoenix Flames that they get such hard-on for, are nothing compared to the Amaterasu's inextinguishable black flames." Said Mesa with an evil smile on his face.
