School Beauty's Personal Martial Expert-Chapter 573: Mysterious Dream 3

Before Leng Xuan could speak, the mysterious figure continued, "It’s simple because all of this has been controlled by others. They regard themselves as the heavens and the earth, arrogantly ruling over the common people as if they were mere playthings. When they are displeased, they create disasters, taking pleasure in seeing the fear and misery of the people."

By this point, Leng Xuan finally understood the mysterious person’s intended message, which was nothing more than the four words ’survival of the fittest’. Frowning, he asked, "The ’they’ you speak of, who are they?"

"You are not yet qualified to know," the mysterious person said. "The gap between you and them is too vast. Even if I told you, what would it change? Do you think you could kill them? In their eyes, you are less than an ant; they wouldn’t even bother to kill you at this point."

"Are you... talking about the people of the Cultivation World?" Leng Xuan speculated. He had heard of the Cultivation World from Uncle Zhang, which is why he asked this question.

"The Cultivation World?" The mysterious person scoffed with disdain. "They do not have the strength or the qualifications. Boy, you shouldn’t ask too many questions. Right now, you’re just like a frog in a well, what you see is merely the tip of the iceberg. You mustn’t limit your vision to the world alone, but to the universe."

At this revelation, Leng Xuan was truly shocked. The universe, what a concept! With this thought, he shook his head with a bitter smile, realizing he indeed existed like an ant. Suddenly, another question struck him, and he asked, "Who exactly are you? Your presence here can’t be a coincidence, and you’ve told me so many secrets."

"Of course," the mysterious person nodded. "Do you really think I came to chat with you out of boredom? As the successor of Defying Heaven Art, you should be aware of your responsibilities. Look at yourself, what have you done all these years? You have no accomplishments to speak of, not even able to defeat a mere mid-stage fusion opponent. It’s disgraceful. Throughout the generations, Defying Heaven Art has been passed down, and there has been no one as lacking as you."

"The successor of Defying Heaven Art?" Leng Xuan was stunned. "What responsibilities are you talking about?" Uncle Zhang had never mentioned this when he passed on the cultivation technique.

The mysterious person explained, "Since the laws of heaven and earth have been usurped, we must defy them and restore clarity to this world. Remember, anyone who practices Defying Heaven Art must take up this mission, to not fear hardships, and to bravely push forward."

Leng Xuang inquired, "You just mentioned there have been several generations of Defying Heaven Art’s successors, where are they now?"

"Dead," the mysterious person said coldly, uttering two words.

"What?" Leng Xuan couldn’t help but widen his eyes. "Isn’t that sending me to my death with my abilities?"

"Boy, the road to defying heaven is filled with insurmountable obstacles; without great resolve, success is unattainable. Furthermore, there can only be one successor of Defying Heaven Art. Although this person bears the mission of defying the impossible, they also possess numerous rights and honors," the mysterious person said slowly. "The successor of Defying Heaven Art can exercise the authority of life and death. Do not underestimate this power; it applies not just to mortals but also to fellow cultivators, regardless of the opponent’s strength. Moreover, this authority is recognized by all cultivators."

"You mean to say, if I deem someone deserves death, then I can kill them without facing any condemnation or retribution, is that it?" exclaimed Leng Xuan.
