Betrayal

They stood silently while looking at each other for a while, then, the female disciple drew her sword.

Without a word, she appeared in front of the cloud sect disciple and slashed out.

Clank!

A metal clashing sound rang out as sparks flew.

She retreated before attacking again, but yielded the same results.

After failing over and over, she retreated.

She stood with her sword raised in the air, then all of a sudden, a dim silver light appeared around it.

The cloud sect disciple saw the change in the sword, still slightly smiling , his face became serious.

Wind started to wrap around his body like armer.

The female disciple's face became slightly pale, she then slashed out.

A silver sword light shot towards the cloud sect disciple, who was standing with his arms open, with no intention of dodging.

Boom!

As the sword light hit the wind armer, a loud boom rang out, a small shockwave spread through the void.

Outside, both of their bodies trembled.

" Cough!" The cloud sect disciple coughed a mouthful of blood.

" I have lost." The female disciple, pale faced, declared her defeat.

She opened her eyes and got up from the stage, her face pale, as she walked back up to her seat.

She secretly wiped a line of blood from her nose.

The cloud sect disciple got up and walked Unsteadily back to his seat, it seemed that he didn't completely block her last attack.

...

After that fight, one of the remaining sun sect disciples arrogantly challenged all of the demonic god sect disciples, which which caused their anger to erupt.

Although they were told by the sect master 'to not cause trouble' they were infuriated.

Unfortunately, the disciple that accepted the challenge was beaten half to death.

The sun sect disciple broke his limbs slowly, one by one.

Since the sun sect lost 3 times in a row, both the disciples and the sect master were angry.

And since they couldn't take it out on the cloud sect, and the silver sword sect would just chop them up, they could only go for the demonic god sect.

...

After a few more fights, the tournament was finished, as the sun stained the clouds with a beautiful orange.

The first one to leave was the silver sword sect.

Just as the demonic god sect was about to leave, a voice boomed.

" Where are you going?" The sect master looked back and saw 4 figures in the sky.

" What is the meaning of this?" The sect master shouted.

" You should already know what kind of situation this is!" One of the figures said mockingly.

" Humph! You four elders are barely at the heaven and earth stages 1st-3rd levels, while i'm at the 7th level!"

" if you think that just the four of you are enough, then you are as foolish as you are weak!" A terrifying, black fog-like qi started to seep out of the sect master's body, as his eyes turned blood red.

" Who said it was just us?" One of them said with a vicious expression.

He was the elder who was sent to the land of the dead for four months, elder rock.

As he said this, 2 massive pressures appeared.

The sect master turned around and saw two figures.

" You...." His expression dimmed when he saw who the two people were.

" The four of us are not here for you!" Another one said with a sinister grin.

" The person in question should know who they are!" Another one said, they all looked in Levi's direction.

Levi's face was stone cold, his expression dark.

He looked at the four people with annoyance and bloodlust.

These people had tried to kill him multiple times, if he could, he would have killed them on the spot.

' This doesn't look good.' He thought, as he looked at the sect master's expression.

" What a fool! you should have known that this would happen, but you still attended the 5 year tournament anyway!" The sun sect master said with a vicious expression.

He was still annoyed that most of his disciples were beaten to that degree.

" Don't take it personally." The cloud sect master said calmly, a slight smile on his face.

" Sky! Take the disciples back to the sect! Levi, go with them!" The sect master roared.

The roc, sky, looked conflicted, but after a while it took off.

Blood red wings sprouted from Levi's back, as he shot into the sky.

" What kind of technique is that little brat cultivating!"

" To be able to fly before the heaven and earth stage!"

" It must be a legendary skill!

" Before we kill him we have to get him to spill all of his secrets!" The four elders took turns saying.

They then chased after him.

" Where do you think you're looking!" The sun sect master sent a devastating scorching palm strike towards the sect master.

" Piss off!" The sect master shouted, as the black qi formed a sword.

Sou!

" Aghhhhh!" The sword flashed and pierced the sun sect master's shoulder, completely disregarding his defensive qi.

The sun sect master was at the 5th level of the heaven and earth stage, while the cloud sect master and the demonic god sect master were both at the 7th level.

" You old demon, why won't you die?" The cloud sect master drew his sword and slashed out, sending the wind into disarray.

A large wind blade shot towards the sect master at an alarming speed.

Before the wind blade could hit him, the sect master made another sword of darkness and slashed out.

BOOM!

The two clashed, with one destroying the other.

The blade of wind exploded into smaller blades and cut up the ground, while the sword of darkness disintegrated anything it came into contact with, the grass and the ground.

Crack!

The sun sect master attacked with a palm strike in that moment, which caused the sect master to retreat, his shoulder broken.

" Hahaha! Old age hasn't been nice to you! Once known as the dark demon, but now you're just a weak old man!" The sun sect master sneered with a twisted expression.

The sect master vanished before reappeared in front of the sun sect's master, he chopped down with a sword made from his black qi.

" Aghhhh! You bastard! I'll kill you!!" The sun sect master screamed crazily as his arm fell to the ground.

As the sect master was about to attack once more, he was hit by a large amount of qi, which sent him soaring.

He steadied himself in the sky and looked down.

" You..." He looked down at the cloud sect master, but the only thing that came out of his mouth was 'you'.

He was burning with rage at this point.

...

In the sky.

Levi was pumping qi into his wings, trying his best to get away.

But, he was merely at the 3rd qi refining level, he would not be able to out run 4 heaven and earth stage practitioners.

Realizing that he wouldn't be able to get away, Levi turned around and flew straight towards them.

" Begging for your life? To late! Die!" Elder rock shouted as he sent out a palm strike.

" Let's see who'll die!" Levi shouted angrily, he slahed out with his hand causing five poisonous wind blades to shoot towards the palm strike.

Crack!

The five wind blades shattered like glass upon contact.

" Hahahaha! You're too weak!" Elder rock laughed maniacally as he continued with his attack.

Boom! Crack!

A sharp crack rang out as the palm hit Levi's chest, he didn't have time to dislocate his bones.

His chest caved in, as his ribs broke.

Along with the palm strike, a prickly qi went in and wreaked havoc inside his body.

" Cough! Cough!" Levi coughed a few mouthfuls of blood as he pulled out his sword from it's sheath.

With the sword covered in poison, he stabbed towards elder rock's eye.

Elder rock was startled that Levi could still move and couldn't react in time, but before the sword could pierce his eye, Levi was bombarded with attacks.

He fell from the sky, broken ribs, broken shoulder, a hole in his stomach and a gash on his back.

He landed on the hard ground with a splat, blood soiling the grassy ground.

His breathing was heavy as he struggled to get up.

" I almost forgot! Give us the skill you're cultivating and everything you got from the tomb, and i'll let you have a painless death!" Elder rock said with vicious grin.

" You know....." Levi struggled to sit up straight, as he leaned againts a large rock.

" One of your...disciples... cough.." He spat a mouthful of blood.

" Said....the same thing.... but i still killed him in the end! Cough! Cough! And you four will be the same! hahahaha!" He said with a depraved laughter.

" Humph!" Elder rock formed a pointed, anchor-like hook with qi.

Boom! Crack!

The hook stabbed through Levi's stomach, pinning him to the rock.

" Cough!!" He spat another mouthful of blood, his face pale.

He looked up at the sky with hatred and defiance in his eyes.

Crack!

The rock was split in half.
