The Lord of Heaven: A Road to Eternity

Chapter 01: Clan Trash

On the Sky Continent, in Arumanis City, within the territory of the Han Family.

A fifteen-year-old teenager ran while clutching his swollen face. He had just been beaten by several people from another family.

At that moment, another teenager watched from a distance, narrowing his eyes. He approached and asked, “What happened to your face? Who dared to hit you?”

This teenager was named Han Tian, a cultivation genius who was also the older brother of the boy. Anger truly rose within his chest upon seeing his younger brother hurt like this, but he restrained himself and wanted to hear what had really happened.

The boy’s name was Han Nian. He was utterly useless—the complete opposite of his praised older brother. He was nothing but despised trash.

In this world, strength was everything. If you were not strong, it was better to die!

Han Nian was born with a sealed Dantian, making him completely unable to cultivate. He started training very late, only after the age of ten. Because of his inability to store energy, he could not break through his limits.

Fortunately, his older brother was kind-hearted and continuously provided care as well as many medicinal resources. Because of that, he was finally able to cultivate. However, due to his late start, he could only train up to Bronze Level, One Star.

Meanwhile, normal children began training at the age of seven. As for those born geniuses, they did not need much time to adapt to energy. At the age of four or five, they could already absorb it.

The difference was extremely striking!

Thus, those who had started cultivating earlier, or were the same age as Han Nian, had already reached Bronze Level, Eight Stars. Meanwhile, the talented young geniuses had reached Silver Level.

The cultivation levels in the Sky Continent consisted of nine realms, each divided into nine stars.

They were: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Diamond, Earth, Sky, King, Emperor, and Saint.

However, since the end of the Era of Destruction thousands of years ago, when a cataclysmic battle took place, no one had been able to reach the Saint Level. The world seemed to be sealed, or perhaps cultivation itself had regressed.

“Brother, luckily I have you. I don’t know where else to complain!” He indeed looked foolish, and Han Tian understood that.

“Calm down. Big Brother is here. Tell me the truth,” Tian said.

“It was Feng and his friends, Brother! They saw me walking with Young Miss Qin at the market and immediately beat me. They also said that I, useless trash, am not worthy of being close to a beautiful woman. That I only ruin the view.” Nian repeated exactly what those people had said in their tone while still holding his aching cheek.

Han Tian was furious upon hearing that. Even if members of the Han Family called his younger brother trash, he would teach them a lesson—let alone outsiders. He said, “You go back first and find the Family Physician. Brother will give them the lesson they deserve.” His fists clenched, ready to strike.

“Alright, Brother!” Han Nian knew his brother’s personality and strength. Otherwise, he would not have complained to Han Tian. Feng alone would definitely be defeated. He was fully confident in that. Still, he reminded him, “Be careful, Brother!”

Tian smiled, ruffled his younger brother’s hair, and turned away.

Step by step, it was as if the earth trembled beneath him. A gentle breeze blew, making the leaves sway as though cheering Han Tian on.

Upon arriving at the market, Han Tian finally found Feng walking with three members of the Feng Family. He immediately blocked their path, leaping directly in front of Feng.

Feng was quite surprised by Tian’s arrival, but he quickly composed himself and folded his arms across his chest, trying to analyze Han Tian’s current strength.

“What did my younger brother do wrong? Why did you hit him?” Tian still maintained a calm tone and asked for the exact reason.

“Oh, so that trash went and complained too. I thought he wouldn’t say anything to anyone. I forgot he has a so-called genius older brother. You want to know, right? There are two reasons. First, he dared to flirt with Clarissa. Everyone knows she is my fiancée. Second, I really don’t like seeing trash on the road, so I threw him back to where he belongs.”

The laughter of his friends followed Feng’s laughter. Their faces were full of delight, as if celebrating something amusing. They paid no attention to the expression on Tian’s face upon hearing the insult. As an older brother, he had to act even more ruthlessly.

“Hmmm. You are indeed good with words. Very well, I will also give you a lesson so that you remember never to touch my brother again.”

After saying that, Han Tian stomped the ground and leaped forward. A distance of two meters was nothing, and his fist shot straight toward Feng.

Feng stepped back several paces, and his three companions tried to block Han Tian’s punch. However, the three of them were sent flying three meters away.

How could they possibly withstand a punch containing Silver Level, Three-Star Spiritual Energy with their mere Bronze Level? It would only bring destruction.

Taking advantage of the moment, Feng attempted to flee, but Han Tian’s speed far surpassed his own. His effort was clearly futile.

Feng’s cultivation was also at the Silver Level, but the difference lay in the stars. Feng was only at Two Stars, one star below Han Tian. This caused the disparity. Even though it was just one star, the gap in strength was enormous—like Heaven and Earth.

However, it should be noted that every cultivator possessed their own skills and combat techniques. This was also a distinguishing factor. So even if their realms were the same, it did not mean their strength was equal. That could not be used as a benchmark.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

In just an instant, Feng was sent flying by three punches from Han Tian that landed on his face, shoulder, and waist.

Han Tian did not forget the other three.

One of them said, “I was only following Young Master Feng.”

But Han Tian said nothing—only swung his leg in a powerful kick.

Bang!

The man was sent flying again.

Turning to the others, Han Tian showed no mercy. He beat them until they were bruised and battered, collapsing onto the ground.

His heart was satisfied seeing that.
