Return Of The Demon

According to the history of this world, a long time ago there existed only a single plane of existence. The plane contained an unimaginable number of worlds of different sizes. The largest world in the plane, as well as the plane itself was called the The Grand Immemorial world and the Grand Immemorial plane.

But a long time ago, long forgotten by the current world, the entire plane suddenly shattered. No one knew the reason. The Grand Immemorial Plane shattered into many pieces. Not only the Grand Immemorial world, but even most of the other worlds shattered.

The single plane of existence was broken into four in a moment. In the lower plane, only people in the first step could exist. In the middle plane only people in the first or second step could exist. In the high plane, only people in the first three steps could exist. Finally a new plane was formed out of the largest piece of the The Grand Immemorial world and some of the largest worlds that existed before. This plane was called the Immortal plane, as only this plane could support the immortal step and higher stage cultivators. There were many worlds in each plane.

Another thing that happened was that along with the birth of these worlds came many different pocket worlds. These pocket worlds were very tiny worlds, which were unstable and sometimes also drifted about.

Along with the destruction of the The Grand Immemorial World, all the G.o.d step cultivators died in the explosion. Until then humans was the greatest dominators of the The Grand Immemorial World followed by the Demonic Beast race, which was headed by the Dragon tribe. But in their absence many other races rose and climbed to prominence. But with time, partially due to their high population growth rate and natural advantages, the human and beast races climbed back to the top. But many other races had also sculpted out their niches by then.

He was currently in a high level world called the Howling Wolf world. This was because according to someone who drew the maps of this world, the shape of the largest continent on this world resembled a howling wolf.

The different worlds in the universe had different shapes. Some were shaped like a disk or a plane like the world Long Tian was on, but some were shaped like a sphere or even weird ones like a ring and so on.

Long Tian figured that the Shatter happened due to the explosion of the Devil Emperor. After all the world that he lived in was the The Grand Immemorial world. But what he could not understand was that why no one remembered the invasion of the devils. It was a great war that that ran for tens of thousands of years and slaughtered a great many cultivators. But no one even remembered about it.

In the Howling Wolf world there are eleven supreme powers. The first are the six great empires, the Noth empire, the Pilgan empire, the Sky empire, the Dragon empire, the Scar empire and the Ocean empire. Then there is the three forces spread throughout the continent, the Little Merchant a.s.sociation, the Hunter Union, and the Sky G.o.d religion. Finally there was the city which contained the major academies of the continent, the City of Scholars. On top these forces, there was also the dark forces and largest of which was the Crescent Moon organization, which is ranked alongside the other top forces.

The ten forces were focused on the nine great cities. Other than the capitals of the six empires and the city of scholars, there was also the Holy City, the city of the Sky G.o.d church, and the Yellow City, where the headquarters of both the Little Merchant a.s.sociation and the Hunter Union are in.

In the Howling Wolf world there are two major mountain ranges running from west to east: the Blue Moon mountain range and the Ever Green Hills. The Blue Moon mountains ran from the eastern tip to the center of the continent. The Ever Green Hills run from the center to the western edge and slowly turns into the plains of enlightenment.

The Ever Green forests range was not very tall, but was very lush and filled with trees and interspersed with gra.s.slands with many beasts living in it. The geography of the land and the large number of beasts made it so that crossing the land was extremely dangerous. At the same time there were many valuable medicines in the Ever Green Hills and many people often wandered in there in search of them.

The Blue Moon mountains was the exact opposite of the Evergreen mountain range with sharp and dangerous cliffs and extremely deadly terrain, whose conditions could change from biting cold winds to burning heat in a heartbeat. The number of beasts that call the Blue moon mountains home was far lesser than that of Ever green mountains, but each one of them was far stronger. There were not many medicines here, but the Blue Moon mountains has many valuable minerals and ores and other such materials. Even after many years the two places still gave birth to many valuable materials, almost as if it has an unending supply.

One important feature of the Blue Moon mountains was its red soil, while the Ever Green forest had a green soil. The color of the soil would return to normal when taken away from these locations for a while, while soil brought here from outside would change its color.

Between the two mountain ranges there was a long and thin strip of yellow soil. This was called the yellow valley. The yellow valley was long and thin and it was also the only safe way to traverse from the south of the continent to the north. As a result the entire yellow valley became the most traveled route in the whole continent.

In the middle of the yellow valley there was a great circular region. It was here that the most prosperous city in the continent, the yellow city, was located. Due to its location in the middle of the continent, and its close proximity to four of the six empires, the yellow city had a lot of trade going through it. Not only that, due to the geography of the region, yellow city was extremely had to attack, but easy to defend.Also as the beasts and conditions of the Ever Green hills and Blue Moon mountains got more and more dangerous as one got further away from the yellow valley most adventurers used the yellow city to enter and exit these regions. It was also the second oldest city in the continent after the holy city.

All of these made the yellow city the richest city and also the only city not affiliated with any power. The city had two major powers that had the headquarters here. But the location of the city also meant that there was no way to grow any crops and all the resources that had be used had to be brought here from outside. Thus there were not many mortals in the city and the area of the city was quite small.

Other than the Little Merchant a.s.sociation and Hunters Union there were five other top powers in the yellow city. There was the Alchemist Union and Weaponsmith Union. There were also the three great clans of the yellow city. The three great clans of the yellow city were the Bai, Song and Gong clans .

And Bai Yun was born to this Bai Clan. The Bai clan had existed for a long time and had their fingers in many pies and also throughout the continent. The three great clans all had one permanent spot in the elder council of the three unions and little merchant a.s.sociation. The current head of the Weaponsmith union was from the Bai clan, and they also has an extra spot other than the permanent spot that was reserved for the Bai clan in the Hunters Union. All in all the Bai clan was a powerful force in the continent whose power was only below that of the eleven major forces.

His father Bai Mu was a powerful pract.i.tioner in the peak of the second stage. It was said that if it wasn"t for the illness of Bai Yun, by now he would have already broken through to the Dao seed realm. When Bai Mu was young he went to the Shadow Stream academy in the city of scholars and then went to travel the world as an adventurer after joining the hunters union.

During these travels he had done many heroic things, earning him the t.i.tle of iron tiger. Later he met his wife Xiao Mei-er and they decided to return to the Bai clan, after which Bai Yun was born.

But after Bai Yun"s situation was understood, Bai Mu quit all of the family"s businesses to take care of his son. Even his cultivation suffered. And due to this the elders of the Bai can was very unhappy with him.

After understanding all of this Long Tian simply grew more confused. Why would anyone ever attack him. It made no sense. He was of no danger to anyone, and even his father had quit all the power he had. There was no need to attack him, let alone to use something like a soul shaking orb.

A soul shaking orb required someone at at least the dao mark stage to make it. It contained within it a powerful and violent soul force that would simply explode and attack on contact. Not only is it extremely difficult to make, even the resources needed to make it is extremely difficult to obtain. As for a person with a damaged soul, like Bai Yun was supposed to have, it would have been extremely fatal. Long Tian simply could not understand why anyone would do something do evil. As far as he could recall his family had no enemy within the Bai clan, and no one outside could have the influence to affect the Bai clan that much.

Long Tian decided to put this problem out of his mind. This was a difficult problem and he knew that he could find out the truth in time.

But now he had a bigger problem to face. How should he face his parents of this life.

****************************

In a city somewhere, black haired young with blue eyes which contain a tinge of purple in its depth woke up. He held his head in his hand as he fought against the most horrible headache he has ever had.

"Ugh the same nightmare as before." he thought.

Ever since he small small he has had a recurring nightmare. In his nightmare he would be forced to fight again and again endlessly. He had no idea who he was fighting or why. The only thing he could remember was the blood and gore and the body pieces.

But tonight was different. Today it felt more real, as if it were his memories. He could see longer and even more clearer. and the headache that the nightmare brought along with it was sharper too.

He looked up at the ceiling. The youth felt as if he was looking at some far distant sky for an instant, disorienting him.

"Young Master, are you awake?" A young girl"s voice could be heard.

"I"m coming" The youth replied with a smile.

He got up and moved towards the door. Suddenly a voice screamed in his mind. "Whatever it takes, you have to kill him. No matter what happens." The youth stumbled. Then with a vein throbbing in his temples, he screamed in his mind. "Kill who." But he knew there would be no answer. The voice filled with an ice cold resolve had no answer.

The youth took a moment to collect himself. Then putting his trademark smile on his face, he continued on.
