Reincarnation In Against The Gods Fan-fic

Leaving the Empire of the Blue Wind in the evening, Huang Sheng stopped in a dense forest. He sat on the soft grass in the lotus position and thought, stroking his chin.

"It was stupid to go to another Empire without getting more information" - Shen was not very upset by this, since in recent days too much has happened to him to think about such trifles. - "You have to buy a teleportation scroll from the System ..."

Having bought a teleportation scroll from Sistema for 500 points, since the distance between the Blue Wind Empire and the Great Asura Empire was incredibly large. Even if Sheng will constantly fly to his goal at top speed, then it will take him at least one month to arrive there.

Opening the scroll, Shen felt something attracted to him and a flash of white light ...

....

....

Towards morning, Sheng had already reached his first city of the Great Asura Empire. Watching a large line in front of the gates to the city, he went to the guard, not forgetting to pull the hood over himself.

"They are Earth Stage practitioners ..." - Shen was surprised at how different the two Empires were, but he quickly pulled himself together and greeted two people, quietly transferring 1,000 gold to each of them. "Seniors, I'm in a hurry, can I get through?"

The two men looked around and nodded briefly, no longer paying attention to him, since Shen specially reduced his practice to the Spiritual Step so as not to arouse suspicion.

Passing by a queue dissatisfied with him and entering the city, Shen whistled: "This city is only on the outskirts of the Great Asura Empire, but already in size is not inferior to the City of the Rising Moon ..."

The sun was shining in the sky, and despite the early morning, the streets were already filled with local practitioners or ordinary residents, of whom there were quite a lot.

In front of the gates, people set up their shops or opened their stores, and someone even called to look at his goods.

The buildings of the city were basically similar to those that were in the City of the Rising Moon, only with honors on the quality of the stone. The closer Shen came to the center, the higher and better the buildings became, and the standard of living itself is better.

As he understood it, Sheng was moving along the shopping streets so far, since he had not yet met a single apartment building.

Still deciding to get information, Sheng went inside the first weaponry that came across:

- Oh, new? Come in, and if you take, I will make a discount. Said the bearded chubby man with a good-natured smile. But, despite the great physique, the blacksmith had clearly strong hands, and the man himself possessed the strength of the Spiritual Step.

The blacksmith, seeing the visitor who entered, immediately realized that he was new, but was also surprised by the power of this unknown.

Sheng took a pair of expensive daggers from the Spiritual Step of Inner Strength, and started a conversation. The man, of course, immediately understood why this visitor was here, but since he acquired an expensive weapon that no one wanted to take for a long time, he gladly answered the questions he had asked.

As it turned out, this city was called: The City of the Great Plain. The blacksmith also explained the reason for the name:

"It's all because of the Great Plain of Antiquity!" Of course, nothing valuable was left there, but everyone is curious to look at the ruins of ancient years!

Shen stroking his chin, became interested in the story of a man. Not far from the city of the Great Plain there was a vast plain on which, once upon a time, according to rumors, there was a mysterious clan with mysterious forces. But out of envy of them, they were attacked by ill-wishers and destroyed the legacy of those times and robbed everything of value.

After thinking a little, Sheng asked:

"And no one knows what this mysterious clan was so famous for?"

The man narrowed his eyes, and as if he was afraid that someone would hear, brought his face closer through the counter and whispered:

- They say that this clan possessed the power of space and time! A legend among legends!

Shen frowned. He knew that believing ordinary words without any proof was foolish, but he also did not repel this option:

"Is there anything interesting left on this plain?" Or just plain ruins?

The man stroked his beard and with "hmm", he thought. He was silent for a while, until he exclaimed:

- Right! Although many empty buildings have survived, there are strange "gates".

- The gate?

- Right. They are made of very durable material that is not easy to break. Even the practitioners of the Tyrannical Step came and tried to break them or take them with them, but nothing came of it. - he shook his head, sighing: - But, this is where their peculiarity ends, although there are still those who think that a mystery is hidden behind them.

Shen nodded and did not mention this plain anymore. Then he asked that his interest might hurt. And the man, as if knowing his thoughts, told him about the annual auction, which is held by the Black Moon Trading Guild branch ...

....

....

After leaving the armory, Sheng headed to the nearest hotel. Having rented a room there, since he was afraid that they would all be busy in the late afternoon, he again went for a walk around the city.

He did not ask about the Dark Guild. Shen would be a complete fool if he did this. Since the members of the Dark Guild are even in the Empire of the Blue Wind, he was sure that they were here. Therefore, asking at least one question about this guild, Shen probably would have attracted unnecessary attention.

Walking around the city, Sheng did not refuse to buy delicious food. He felt like a tourist who came on vacation, but, in addition to this, Shen purposely pretended to be an ordinary traveler.

In the city of the Great Plain, there were three strongest clans that controlled almost the entire economy of the city, as well as several Academies. But even they were under the direction of these clans.

As far as Shen understood, there was a strained relationship between the three clans over the younger generation. In two clans there were two geniuses who excelled everyone else, but in the third, there was a girl who was even more talented than two guys. In addition to everything, she had a certain special physique, and because of a dispute over whom this princess would marry, a conflict arose.

On the one hand, it was funny, but Sheng also understood the importance of this issue. If a girl with a special physique gets one of these two guys, then the lucky clan will rise in the future, having acquired a marriage and one more great talent, but the third clan will be left with nothing and will be crushed in the future or even worse - destroyed.

For Shen, this situation between the three clans was favorable. Although he did not want to stay in this city for a long time from the very beginning, Sheng changed his mind after the blacksmith told about the auction and the plain of antiquity. But there was another reason why he decided to stay and not rush - the Dark Guild! Although Sheng did not ask about this guild openly, this does not mean that he cannot act secretly, right? He just needed to wait for the right moment.

Upon learning that the auction would be held in three days, Sheng decided:

"Well, since there is still time, why not look at the Plain of Antiquity? .."
