Demon Lord's Reincarnation-Chapter 596 I Will Grant You Power Beyond Belief
Ren looked at the badly beaten Fang Mu with a smile on his face. Despite the young man being on the brink of death, his body trembling in fear of Ren's power, his eyes were still full of vigor. Even in his current state he was still fighting, waiting for a chance to survive.
Even in the face of Ren's overwhelming presence, the boy remained calm. Seeing these detailed reactions on the boy's face just made Ren even more excited. Recently aside from fighting, Ren found that training those with potential was a fun thing to do as well. Seeing a weakling barely able to perform a simple technique grow stronger and stronger until he can finally harm even Ren himself, was extremely stimulating. Just thinking about battling someone like that made Ren tingle in excitement.
Not only does training these people help him find good opponents to fight, but they might be able to somehow help him in the war against the ORIGIN that was closing in. Even if they could not fight the ORIGIN itself, they should be able to at least fight again the Gods that follow the ORIGIN.
...
Fang Mu looked at Ren warily unable to discern what the other party was thinking. He already understood that there was little to no hope of escaping from this person, yet Fang Mu didn't want to accept such a fate. He still had a lot of things he needed to accomplish, the was shouldering not only the dreams of his entire clan but their desire for revenge.
? "What do you want to do with me, why did you save me?"
"I saved you because I found you interesting."
"Interesting?"
"Yeah, your toughness, skill, and determination are very good that even I can't help but admire you. Not only that but the calmness you have in every given situation is something to behold."
"..."
"Don't look at me like that. It's the truth that I admire your spirit."
"If that's everything you wanted to say then thank you for helping me, so can I go now?"
Even as he was talking like he normally would Fang Mu was coughing up a bit of blood. At this moment his physique the Sky Destroying Physique was already healing his wounds.
"What's the rush, you're badly beaten and it seems that even though your special physique is great and all it doesn't seem like you can instantly regenerate, and even if you could your stamina won't suddenly recover."
"... It's enough, my wounds will heal eventually." Fang Mu tried to stand up, it took him a bit of effort but he was able to stand up.
"Hey, it seems due to the excitement I forgot to introduce myself, I'm Ren and you are?"
"Huh?" Fang Mu showed a confused expression at the sudden topic change.
"Like I said we haven't introduced ourselves yet so since I have told you my name, how about you tell me yours."
"... I'm Fang Mu."
"Nice to meet you Fang Mu. So since you don't like chattering too much, I'm just going to get straight to the point now. Do you want to become my disciple?"
When Fang Mu heard what Ren said the expression on his face became really weird. He was so surprised that he wasn't even sure if he heard the words correctly.
"Disciple?" f𝓇𝘦ℯ𝙬𝑒𝐛n𝐨νe𝙡.c𝑜𝗺
"Yes, if you become my disciple I promise you that you will become stronger."
"..."
"Hmm, still not convinced? Tell me what is your goal in life, and what it is that you desire? Perhaps I might be able to give it to you."
The way Ren spoke was very enticing it was like the devil himself was whispering in Fang Mu's ears. After a short pause, Fang Mu finally answered.
"... Revenge..."
As Fang Mu said those words the memory of his clan being slaughtered flashed before his eyes, his killing intent was hard to hide. Unlike Ren's overbearing killing intent that could make someone kneel in fear, on the other hand, Fang Mu's killing intent was like a refined blade that could cut anything in its path. Hearing what he said and feeling his killing intent Ren started smiling again and was holding down his laughter.
"Now that's an interesting response... So you wish for revenge, that's easy for me to give you. If you want it, as long as you follow me as my disciple you can gain power that could help you in your revenge, or you can just ask me to do it. No matter what kind of enemy you have, as long as you become my disciple I can annihilate them."
"I do not want anybody to fulfill my revenge for me. It needs to be by my hand. I need to be the one to annihilate the enemies of my clan, if not me then everything would be meaningless..."
"I that so... Hm, I guess you wanted to join the Void Sect not to use its reputation to kill your enemies, but to gain strength so that you can do it yourself. Hahaha, I really like you kid, so what do you say want to be my disciple? Like I keep on telling you if you become my disciple I will grant you the power to take whatever revenge you want."
"Are you sure that you can grant me such power?"
"Even after seeing me fight, you still think that way?"
"My enemies aren't so lowly as those guys. My enemies could possibly be even more powerful than the Void Sect. So can you truly grant me the power to achieve my revenge?"
"Just how strong is this enemy of yours?"
"My enemy is the Phoenix Empire, I don't know just how strong they truly are, but they should have several true monarchs."
"How strong is this so called true monarch?"
When Fang Mu heard Ren's question he was once again surprised. Someone at Ren's level who should at least be at the Nascent Soul Realm should know about True Monarchs but based on his tone when he spoke it doesn't seem like he knew anything. Even though he was still confused, Fang Mu answered.
"A True Monarch Realm Cultivator is supposed to have the strength to overthrow a minor sect with but a wave of their hand."
"That is such a vague way to explain one's strength."
"Sorry, I haven't really seen a True Monarch in action so I don't really have a clear idea of just how strong they are."
"Fine, I'll just show you a bit of my power, and you tell me if it is enough to challenge these so-called True Monarch Realm Cultivators."
Ren faced the direction of a mountain that he could be seen in the distance, he then lifted his right hand. Fang Mu could feel the Qi in the surrounding area gathering into Ren's right hand. The power he felt from Ren's right hand was beyond anything he has ever seen before. Ren then chopped down and the mountain in the distance was sliced right in the middle. Ren had created a crevice with just a single motion.
"Is that enough to prove my power?"
Fang Mu quickly stood up straight despite his injuries he made the proper gesture of greeting one's master.
"Disciple Fang Mu greets master."
