Poison God's Heritage

"Bloody hell," I said as I was rocked to the side the hardest among everyone else. After all I was using an even weaker body. Tao Yang thankfully caught me but I was not a fan of what just happened.

"Was there an engine failure?" I asked as I was glancing everywhere, the whole engine area was perfectly functional.

"No, some fool is trying to bring us down," Tao Yang said, and for the first time, I saw rage like nothing before in her eyes.

"It's the Cryptic One, what sort of foolishness is he trying this time?" the Blue Sun's rage was also increasing with each passing second.

"Another one is coming," Tao Yang said as she displayed what was going on. It was the Cryptic Sun, and he has a nasty smile on his face as he sent a gigantic energy wave right into the bastion.

The whole bastion rattled and I was once again supported by Tao Yang.

"Blue Sun," Tao Yang said, "You should rein in your friend or he'll suffer a worse fate than death."

Her words were a clear threat, and even the Blue Sun didn't like them.

"First off, he isn't my friend, and he's a Sun, to kill him would mean to destroy a massive portion of the Beyond. I cannot allow that," she said.

"Then find a way to stop him, because the bastion will break if he continues on like this."

"Can he hear us from here," the Blue Sun asked.

"Yes, I can relay your face and your voice if you wish," Tao Yang said.

"Then do it," she said and soon the Blue Sun's projection appeared outside the Bastion.

"Cryptic One! What is the meaning of this?!"

"Oh, so you were inside," the Cryptic Sun shrugged, "I'm here because I think the bastion is a threat, I'll be eliminating it, it is hosting too many enemies. The safety of the beyond might be jeopardized because of it," he said as he sent another shockwave.

"CRYPTIC!" the Blue Sun's wrath was exerted through her Qi as the third shockwave hit the bastion.

The entire thing was shuddering.

His goal was pretty obvious as he only wanted to destroy something he wasn't allowed to obtain. A jealous and envious person who is only satisfied with self-service and selfishness.

The impact caused not only me but even more cultivators to be shaken and fall to the ground.

"Alright," Tao Yang said as she began modifying several sections of the Bastion. "I'll be copying one of your toys Shen Bao," she told me. And while I was watching, the top of the bipyramid opened up and several cubes aligned themselves into the shape of a railgun. It only took a few seconds for it to finish up and it pointed at the Cryptic Sun.

Tao Yang's face appeared right in front of the Cryptic Sun as she said, "You have ten seconds to leave the perimeter, don't blame me for what might happen to you," Tao Yang said.

"Who's this bitch?" the Cryptic Sun scorned, "Do you know who I am?" he said taking pride in his status as a sun.

"Time's up," Tao Yang said and almost immediately, the entire bastion charged up the rod that was aiming at the Cryptic Sun with so much Origin Qi that even the Cryptic Sun's brow rose up.

"This…" he said.

"Tao Yang! If you attack him it'll cause a war!"

"I'm not going to sit down and be bullied! MY RACE HAS HAD ENOUGH!" she said and slammed on the pedestal.

A powerful energy beam shot out of the top of the bipyramid toward the Cryptic Sun's wide-opened eyes, he immediately held his hand forward breaking a jewel on one of the rings on his hand. Tens of thousands of formations manifested right in front of him creating an instantaneous protective field.

The light from all sorts of formations looked like a light show, but the formations couldn't stand a chance against the empowered railgun that was powered by more than a thousand reactors which generated Origin Energy.

The Origin Qi tore through the formation as if it were a piece of paper and blasted right next to the Cryptic Sun's face and into the distance.

The energy shot up all the way to the high heavens enough that it looked like a meteor going from the center of the beyond into the endless space.

The Cryptic Sun's face was pale for a second as he realized that if he had been hit directly things would have ended badly for him.

"This is your only warning!" Tao Yang shouted.

The Cryptic Sun not recognizing who the pesky woman who almost burnt his head off was in rage, and was channeling more of his Qi, enough Qi to cause a problem in the beyond actually as revenge.

"CRYPTIC! IF YOU USE YOUR ORIGIN QI YOU'LL BREAK THE PEACE AGREEMENT!" the Blue Sun shouted.

"I don't care! If this vile thing dares to hit me and I stay still then who will respect me as a Sun!" he said as he raised his hand up with even more formations shaping themselves into the shape of a spinning circular saw.

Tao Yang wasn't one to back away as she manifested three more railguns from the upper part of the bipyramid and they were all charging up.

A catastrophe was about to happen…

"Shen Bao Everyone escapes!" she shouted.

"Automaton! GET US OUT!" I said and just as the automaton began manifesting a portal, it began scrambling and destabilizing.

"The person outside had set up a teleportation block!" the automaton replied.

"For fuck sake…" I cursed inwardly. there was nothing much I could do, if this hit is able to destroy the bastion then a lot of people were going to die, and it might even break it enough for the trapped rakshasa to escape.

Yet before anything could happen, three cultivators appeared right next to the Cryptic Sun, with two of them grabbing him by the shoulder and one of them standing right in front of the four rods aiming at the cryptic sun.

"What is going on here?" the Flamboyant Sun said as he stood right in front of the bastion.

The Dusking Sun had his arm on the Cryptic Sun's shoulder and said, "I can easily guess what's happening here," he said as he gave the Cryptic Sun a snide look.

The man next to the cryptic Sun was the Red Sun who had both eyes shining red, "You really think that the Lording Sun's words were nothing but empty threats?" the Red Sun said.

What does any of this get to do with you?" the Cryptic Sun said. "I'm here to protect the beyond, the bastion has rakshasa inside it, and I'm here to terminate it."

"Bullshit excuse," the Red Sun said, "Your nasty personality would never allow you to think of the people of the beyond as anything but cattle, you, saving them? What a load of crap," he added.

"What do you know?" the Cryptic Sun said "Go back to your slaughter sect, that's the only place where your madness is respected," the Cryptic Sun tried to antagonize and aggravate the Red Sun and he was succeeding.

"And for you," he told the Dusking Sun, "You have no land or people to even understand what I'm doing, piss off, I'll be handling this my way."

"ENOUGH!" the Flamboyant Sun spoke, "You're causing strife in times of war, not only did you refuse to listen to the words of the Lording Sun, you even tried and attacked another Sun!"

"She wasn't going to die," the Cryptic Sun shrugged, "The rest though, I don't really care. They're in cahoots with the rakshasa for all I care, after all, they brought this thing and caused all of these issues…" his words didn't continue as two other people slowly descended into the field.

The Wisest Sun sighed as he looked at what was happening and simply figured everything out in an instant.

The Lording Sun was on the other hand completely pissed.

"So you think you're better than everyone else?" the Lording Sun said.

"Of course I am, I'm a sun, the only Sun to have made it to my seat in such a short time," he said.

"Indeed, you reached the stage of a sun the shortest among us all, but did you ever think to yourself, why it took us longer than you did?" the Lording Sun said.

The man shrugged not caring for the words of the old man. "It is because we forged the path to the Sun stage, while you only followed after us. We made the path easier while you only walked behind us. Even our youngest," he said addressing the Blue Sun, "She made her own path, taking her longer but still arrived to the stage of a sun by breaking open a path of her own.

You on the other hand have no specific Dao, and only use formations to make up for your cultivation." The Lording Sun explained.

"So? I'm still a sun!" he said as he tried to wrest away the two who held him firmly by the shoulders.

"No, There have always been eight Suns in the Beyond. And you were never one of them," the Lording Sun said.

This made the Cryptic Sun frown.

"What is he talking about?" I asked as the Blue Sun next to me

"I have no idea," the Blue Sun was also clueless.

The Cryptic Sun's nose curled up saying, "He forfeited his right as a sun and was fully removed from history!"

"We are history, We remember," the Wisest Sun said, "And like what happened to the Death Sun, if you keep on acting out, it might happen to you too."

"Are you threatening me?"

"A clear and wide threat, back off from Shen Bao and his companions or you'll end up dead." The Flamboyant Sun was the one who spoke this time.

"I was only clearing the hidden threats, don't come and start lecturing me on what is right or wrong," the Cryptic Sun said.

The Red Sun's brows scowled, "Seems like you really don't want to know your place. Then how about a Death Match?!"
