***

Immortal Realm.

High up in the mountain lies the Divine Sword Sect, blazing red flames burning the ground and dark gray smoke rises in the sky.

One man stood in the peak of the mountain while looking up at the sky with no feelings and no emotions. The snow was falling, the wind was howling even with this the man was unfazed. The snow falls on him, hiding his body but even with naked eyes you can still see the faint red blood on his white robe.

Hearing footsteps the man turn around and with unpredictable eyes, he looks at the army of people blocking all his means to escape. But within the army of people, he focuses on 2 figures which were in front of the army and leading them, a middle-aged woman with beauty beyond words and next to her was a a middle-aged man with an appearance that is handsome and elegant at the same time, they were his senior brother Song Zhou and his lover...Xian Xiang...

"Qiao Ling, give up now we have surrounded you and blocked all escape route! Give us the rock and I might even let you have a quick death! I might even give you an intact corpse considering how many people you offended this is considered your good luck!"

Song Zhou shouted out coldly as if all those years of brothership was nothing in front of a divine treasure. With eyes covered in greed with. His eyes searched through the bloody body as if searching for the object that causes his greedy desire.

The man who was called Qiao Ling looks down and sees familiars faces within the group of people...his most trusted senior brother...his master...his own lover...his fellow sect brothers and sisters...his friends and family...some of them he has even gone through life and death situations together...but, in the end, they still betrayed him...for just a rock he founded in the ruins of the final battle between Gods and Demons.

Seeing Qiao Ling not answering, Song Zhou walk toward a few steps and laughs disdainfully, "Qiao Ling, how does it feel to be betrayed by everyone you know and have a relationship with! How does it feel to be poison by your lover! How does it feel that all this have happens just because of the treasure you founded in the ruin!"

Qiao Ling was still emotionless and standing still, seeing this Song Zhou was greatly angered as he continues saying, "Oh you know junior brother Qiao Ling, In the past, I was so envious of your heavenly talent they said you have the greatest potential to break through the Immortal Saint Realm, advancing to the legendary Void Realm! The real, that no one have broken through the past 5,000,000 years!"

Song Zhou walk closer to Qiao Ling until they were only a few feet apart before stopping his movement and speak with great arrogant, "Now look at you! Your divine Meridian have been cripple! Now you just nothing but a mortal and you dare still act like you still the genius you once is!"

"Oh, do you also wanna know why many people you know betrayed you for that stone? Let me tell you the origins of the stone. Inside the stone there is the blood of the gods or demon or even both! With this blood you can break through the Immortal Saint Realm, directly into Void Realm or even more beyond that of Void Realm! Who can miss out this heavenly defying treasure! And how we know? I have the bloodline detecting Wheel Artifact, I always thought it was useless but who knows it suddenly does something! So blame the heavens and your destiny for your fate! Why do I even bother talking about you giving me the stone I will take it directly from your death body!"

Suddenly a jade green saber with a serpent design appears within Song Zhou right hand and with a murderous aura, he slashed down the blade directly into Qiao Ling heart...blood flows out, some even spray into Song Zhou face but he didn't care as he thought about all those years he been thinking of killing this junior brother and the heavens have finally answered his calls! But when he looks up and sees the expression Qiao Ling is making it made him startled with faint of fear in his heart.

"How-how can you still be alive! You are already been cripple not to mention even if your cultivation isn't demolished you still can't survive an attack to the heart!"

Qiao Zhou face instead let out a gentle smile...

"You people can't take me down easily...especially the the type of betrayal for greed...."

Song Zhou watches as the man in front of him taking something out of his robe. It was a talisman with the words 'Undying Body' realized what is happening his expression instantly became the murderous and arrogant face he look at Qiao Ling.

"Even with the Undying Body talisman you can only survive for 5 minutes! It no use to struggle, just accepted your fate...even if you use all your life-saving treasures it will only save you a few minutes of time."

Qiao Ling laughs gently as he looks at his senior brother who he once trusted.

"As least it better than letting you loot all the treasure from my cold dead body so why not waste them all before dying!"

Song Zhou face suddenly darken while his eyes were almost bleeding...the treasures Qiao Ling have is very high graded even within the immortal realm...

Qiao Ling reaches into his cloth, searching through his robe before grabbing out another talisman with the words 'Void Shattering Explosion'.

"Oh, I almost forgot I have one last gift to you before I died."

The moment Song Zhou saw the talisman name his expression immediately became terrified with fears and dread, he stares at the man in front of him as if he was joking or serious, but the moment his gaze look at the man dark and serious eyes he knew....it not a joke...it serious....

"You wouldn't do this! You wouldn't dare do this!"

The blood cover man smiled with no emotions as if he already knew that since he have no means to live he might as well kill some to go down with him...or you might say all of them...

The man whispered quietly.

"Run..."

The moment he heard this, Song Zhou ran as fast as he can, along with some who know the situations but alas they were still too late as the same time Song Zhou ran, Qiao Ling have already activated the talisman...

"BOOM!"

The violet light covered the mountain, destroying everything in it path. When the violet light disappears...nothing was in site...even the mountain...today the divine sword sect along with many powerhouses disappear from the face of this Realm...never to be seen again...
