After a few days of rest and relaxation, Guang Fu felt his talisman move. He took it out of his spatial ring and listened.
"Guang Fu. Report to the mission building. A special assignment has been posted for you." The voice said before hanging up.
Guang Fu put the talisman back in his spatial ring and walked towards the mission building. The mission building was, as easily guessed, a place where missions were handed out and assigned.
Not every single individual was fit to participate in the war. Those who were weak, those who focused on things like forging and healing, and those who there were too many of.
Instead of wasting their time lazing around, they could go to the mission building and take missions for contribution points.
Healers could heal people, blacksmiths could make weapons for people, and unimportant people could do miscellaneous tasks.
The building was completely wooden and only one floor, but it was extremely big. Guang Fu walked inside, and immediately saw the front desks.
He walked up to one of the twenty stations and talked to the receptionist.
"My name is Guang Fu. I was ordered to receive a mission here." Guang Fu stated.
Without speaking, the black haired lady went in the back for around half a minute and brought back an envelope.
"Follow the map. That is all the mission states." The lady said as Guang Fu received the envelope.
Guang Fu nodded and headed to one of the tables in the room. The tables were usually used for team meetings, but they were also briefly used to open information.
Guang Fu opened the envelope. It held only a map and some words describing where to go and certain landmarks.
After a moment, Guang Fu shrugged and got up. He was ordered to do the mission, so he would do it regardless of its weirdness.
It took only a few minutes for Guang Fu to leave the city-sized base. He followed a dirt trial for 30 miles, before turning onto another one for 50 miles.
He then walked through a valley, took a detour around a mountain, walked for more than 100 miles on a single trail, and accidentally wandered into a cave, before finally reaching the foot of a large mountain.
The mountain was covered with pink cherry blossom trees. From afar, one could also see a few waterfalls.
Where Guang Fu stood, there was a trail upwards. Decorating that trail were red torii gates and a lining of purple wisteria trees.
The mountain looked straight out of a painting. It seemed like the type of thing you would hear of, but never actually see.
Guang Fu began to walk up the mountain trail, admiring the scenery along the way.
After a few minutes, the upward slope flattened. The mountain sloped up all the way, except for one point that seemed to be carved off. It was the sole flat area around.
As Guang Fu reached that point, he saw a large yard and a small wooden house. Sitting on the porch of that house was someone that any person in the Heaven world and the Beast world could recognize.
Seeing Tian Ren himself, Guang Fu was stunned into stillness. As he stood there, dumbfounded, Tian Ren opened his eyes.
"Welcome. Come, sit next to me." He spoke evenely.
Tian Ren had a slightly mystical look, but the most noticeable thing was the lightning bolt on his forehead.
After a moment, Guang Fu shook his head and walked through the yard to Tian Ren. After a moment of hesitation, he sat next to him.
"Do you know why you were called here?" Tian Ren asked.
"I do not." Guang Fu responded.
"Because of the person who defeated you. Simply put, there is nobody in the Heaven world at the nascent soul realm who stands a chance of defeating him. Except you." Tian Ren spoke.
"Why me?" Guang Fu responded with a confused look on his face.
"Because you too are special. Also, it seems like you two share an entwined fate." Tian Ren spoke.
Before Guang Fu responded, Tian Ren continued.
"In a way, me and Bi Chong share an entwined fate, but that is only because we are the strongest among our worlds. You and Yao Mun, the man who defeated you, however, are different. Almost at the same time, you and him appeared from nowhere. Both of you can be considered once in a hundred thousand years talents, but appeared so close to each other. As a final hint, you are both basically opposites." Tian Ren finished.
Guang Fu thought about his words for a while and nodded. He had no understanding of Yao Mun, but he understood what Tian Ren was saying.
"With my defensive item and my talent, I have a slight chance of defeating Yao Mun." Guang Fu said before Tian Ren needed to.
"Indeed. Until you reach 10th level of the nascent soul realm, I will train you in offensive techniques with all of my ability. At that time, he should also have superior speed, so I'll add in some detection techniques." Tian Ren said.
"Alright." Guang Fu said. He would never pass on the opportunity to receive training from the strongest and first heavenborn.
"Before we start, can you tell me who this Yao Mun is? You said he was the opposite of me, but how so?" Guang Fu asked.
"I've had my eye on you for a while. I have seen how you are. You are kind, well intentioned, and overall, good. Yao Mun is none of those things. He is evil, he lives to kill and harm. Yet, he is powerful. Too powerful to be left alive. It is known that he wishes to kill Heaven. At first, I laughed it off as a joke. However, he may be able to achieve it. He is a horrifying talent with a horrifying combat ability. For the sake of the entire world, he must be killed." Tian Ren explained.
Guang Fu was shocked hearing his words.
"You expect me to kill someone so talented that he poses a threat to Heaven itself?" Guang Fu asked.
"I do not expect anything. It simply must happen. One way or another, Yao Mun cannot live." Tian Ren said.
