Grinning he closed the mission tab and made his way towards the Distant Ancient City

The city apparently was left from ancient times it is said to have been built by Firmament Sect as one of it's outer strongholds.

However, the city now showed signs of age and wear. It was too run down to give off its day's of former glory.

Li Chu walked through the gates in the centre was nine humongous pillars made of white jade that made circle spanning 10 kilometres in the square.

Wondering why the original author chose to go for such a large circular formation to be in a square rather than a piazza or plaza but went for square anyway even though it was a bit like a giant roundabout.

Shaking his head he inspected the routes and pathways throughout this old former bastion of the Firmament Sect.

Soon he noticed something an old piece of paper in a small collapsed building as he made his way inside the ruined shack.

Digging it of the rubble he wiped away the dust revealing an old list off item in the city.

Looking around and seeing no storeroom shrugging his shoulders found a still intact building and fell asleep inside.

Elsewhere...

The puppet looked at the slips covering the walls, Gold One sighed as he shook his head with disappointment at the so called disciples who had joined the Firmament Sect and had never returned after leaving.

As he turned around and left he wondered if any would return and if there would ever be a true disciple of the Firmament Sect who wouldn't abandon it as he flew dejectedly towards Brightgold Palace only slowing down to glance at the ancestors peak.

Landing at the entrance of Brightgold Palace he entered and returned to his old routine of guarding, cleaning and ensuring the safety of the Firmament Sect as he sat down on a large bright gold chair and waited.

Under the rising sun in the sky silence reigned especially in the Ancient City apart from the odd small creature scavenging for food.

Blood suddenly splattered the wall as Li Chu turned the rat into meat paste and moved the corpse onto the pile six dead rat's all of which were now meat pasty's.

But Li Chu wasn't interested in the city or the creature's there there were greater prizes waiting out there in the divine realm.

Exiting the city he made his way towards the forest while thinking it how he had to breakthrough to the Spiritual Martial Realm soon so he could fly making his travel speed much quicker and easier.

Stopping only for a group of large hippo beast to move.

A minute later..

Nope haven't moved maybe?

Five minuets later...

Nope still they cant be here that long can they?

Ten minuets later...

Nope Still haven't moved "Arghh"

Deciding that the Beasts were trying to annoy him and when he was strong enough that he would roast them and serve them as food he smiled and slowly went around the herd and arrived at the edge of a lake.

The lake covered with numerous lotus's and waterlily's but Li Chu new that like in any novel or film he'd seen there was something hidden, a predator or beast waiting for someone to take the bait.

As he scanned his surrounding he came across a waterfall as he looked at it he felt something calling him drawing him in so carefully he started heading towards it.

Struggling slowly he climbed the wet, slippery, smooth rocks.

As he fought for grip the closer he got to the waterfall the more the water started to fall and try to push him off into the water and jagged rocks hidden underneath below the white churning of the waters surface as he came closer and closer when...

"Thump"

The last thing he saw before darkness took him was a silver fish emerging from the white waterfall hit him in the head while hanging to the rocks as he was towards the edge waterfall as he fell down towards the jagged rocks hidden underneath the white churning waters below.
