Chapter 783 - Retreat - 783
Skymender hit all of the vials with his full strength and ran as fast as possible. Behind him, he could see a vast cloud of multicolored light cover the false world.
As if it had been attracted by a magnet, the Deprivation poison sank into the bark of the Treant, instantly affecting it. At a visible speed withering made its ways across the branch and trunk of the Treant. Even on its huge body, it slowly formed a visible mark. The Treants' open eyes revealed anguish.
The Emperor watched in surprise as one of the Treant's main branches cracked at its base. Not able to bear the weight of itself, the branch snapped off of the Treants body. This was the second main branch to be snapped off, and this second one was even bigger than the first, which the Temple Master had cut off.
During this moment of distraction, the Grandmasters finally fled. Only four remained.
Sword Grandmaster Shang, the Ruler of the Scholar Region, the Seeker, and one of the Grandmaster's from the Mainland.
They soon reached the Emperor. Skymender followed not far behind. They looked at the distant Treant, the few remaining others gathering around them.
They watched as a roar came from the Treant, though it did not open its mouth. Lightning shot wildly around, forming a tornado.
The Emperor spoke with glee. "I've never seen the Treant react like that. How beautiful a sight."
It was obvious that over countless lives, he had developed a great hatred of the Treant.
He turned around and began to leave at a fast speed. Everyone followed. Skymender, four Grandmasters, a few other Masters, and some others, all left the scene. The slower people rode the horses brought by the Faceless Empire. It seemed that the Emperor had become the de facto leader. In a way, he controlled the remaining forces of the world. Although Sword Grandmaster Shang was the only Grandmaster of the Faceless Empire, he had already struck fear into the hearts of the others.
He had shown strength second to only the Temple Master in their battle.
They traveled a long way. Eventually, the Treant left their sight. Without the Reaper, the Emperor was confident in surviving this catastrophe.
They eventually reached a large mountain. This was the largest mountain on the Mainland and the largest mountain in the world. It was this very mountain where the Ruler of the Sword Region lived.
He was the sole survivor of the Mainlands Grandmasters as well, displaying prowess above most others. He and Sword Grandmaster Shang had spoken a bit during the journey, both sharing the love of the sword.
When the Ruler of the Sword Region saw their destination, he was surprised.
"Why are we going there?" He asked the Emperor.
"Because this mountain is not only the tallest point in the world, but leads to one of the deepest points as well." The Emperor explained.
The Ruler of the Scholar Region, who had come with them, was surprised. "I thought I would be the only one to know of this."
"Although Hear The Wind is a powerful skill to learn, it is not the only way to know something." The Emperor said.
The Ruler of the Scholar Region rolled his eyes.
When the Emperor first mentioned that he knew of the Ruler of the Scholar Regions ability, he was shocked beyond words. By now, he was used to it.
They reached the mountain, and the Emperor pointed at a wall. Sword Grandmaster Shang unleashed a slash that made the mountain wall crumble.
Revealed behind it was a long, naturally formed tunnel. The Emperor led everyone down it. They walked for a long way, spiraling down, sometimes going through forked paths, and eventually reaching a cave with a large pool. It was lit up by blue luminescent lights. It was silent, very silent.
The Emperor's group was thirty in number. Besides the Grandmasters, Sword Master Gargantuan was present. The only other person from the Faceless Empire was a battle hardened noble, though he was not quite a Sword Master.
He was the only non-Master among everyone.
Others of the Faceless Empire who had come had been separated or killed during the battle.

They all relaxed in the large cave.
Skymender sat silently against a cave wall. He thought about the Continent of Wu. According to the Emperor, nearly everyone who had lived there would end up dead.
He was not too emotional about it. He just thought back to his life there. Despite everything that had happened, he was still Skymender.
After a few hours of silence and rest, someone spoke out of concern.
"How will we survive without food down here?" One of the Masters asked.
The Emperor, who had been silently resting, opened his eyes.
He stood up and walked over to a wall.
He pointed, and Sword Grandmaster Shang slashed.
A deep tunnel was torn into the wall, but nothing was revealed. The Emperor walked into the tunnel, Sword Grandmaster Shang following. He pointed again. Sword Grandmaster Shang slashed. He continued deep into the ground, until those in the cave could not see him. They only heard rumbling and the sound of slashes.
Finally, the slashing stopped and the Emperor returned.
"Don't just sit in here. Come."
Everyone listened, standing up and following him down the tunnel.
The Ruler of the Scholar Region was confused. He had the ability to Hear The Wind. If there was something here, he should have learned of it while sitting in the cave.
The Emperor responded as though he had heard his thoughts. "If even the wind does not know of a place, how could you learn of it?"
This explained the Ruler of the Scholar Regions confusion.
They finally reached a dark cave with no light. The Emperor lit a torch and moved it around.
There was not much here, no life. Only a milky white liquid filled multiple craters in the ground.
"It may not be much, but this milky substance is extremely healthy and nutritious. We could survive years here with this."
