Guang Fu woke up 3 hours after passing out. As his eyes opened, he did not move. He laid face first on the ground.
'We've lost.' Guang Fu thought to himself.
After all that training and hard work, not only was Yao Mun alive, but Tian Ren was dead. It was as if they went into battle expecting to lose at most 100%, or the worth of Guang Fu, and left after losing 100000%, or the worth of Tian Ren.
Only after silently staring at the ground while the rain fell onto him and around him did Guang Fu get up.
As he looked up into the sky defeated, he could only think of one thing.
"Yao Mun. That masked man. No, the entire beast world. I'm going to kill you all." He said softly.
A moment later, Guang Fu started to move. He quickly made it to the next teleportation array where he met one of the defenders on his side.
"Hey!" He yelled, getting the defenders attention.
"Retreat with me. Now!" He yelled.
"Unless there are direct orders from the higher ups, I will stay here." The man responded.
Guang Fu shook his head, wondering why he even bothered, and continued on. Through the rest of the squares, he didn't say anything and flew through.
Soon, he arrived at the Heaven world base. He sighed to himself as he saw the crowd waiting for good news.
After Tian Ren's declaration, they were hoping for good news.
Guang Fu only stood there as he watched the crowd in front of him. How was he even going to break the news?
Some people in the crowd began to cheer, although they were surprised at his injuries, but a few of the stronger ones sensed the atmosphere around him and looked solemnly.
Yet, even they were not prepared for the next words that came out of Guang Fu's mouth.
"Tian Ren….. Is dead." He said.
It was as if the entire world stopped moving. Some had shocked looks, but some were so shocked that their faces did not even change.
"We need to retreat." Guang Fu said amidst the silence.
Nobody was paying attention.
Guang Fu, at a loss of what to do, flew past the crowd and into the Heaven base. He was still extremely tired and injured. He needed to rest before starting the long journey.
He also needed to regrow his arm and leg, but he would survive for now.
Guang Fu found a room and slept in it. When he woke up, the news had spread across the entire Heaven base.
It had even been transmitted back to the Heaven world and the worlds between. Along with that, the order to retreat to the Heaven world was sent out.
As Guang Fu got up and walked out his door, he was met with a single woman standing in front of him.
"We went to investigate yesterday, and can essentially confirm what you said. However, you need to tell me what happened to my husband immediately." Tian Ren's wife said.
Guang Fu nodded and was about to speak, but was interrupted.
"Not here." She said as she grabbed his arm and flew at a speed he could not comprehend.
He opened his eyes and found himself in a meeting room. Contrary to the last time, every single individual inside was able to rank at the very top of the entire Heaven galaxy in terms of strength.
Without waiting, Guang Fu explained everything as it happened. He also talked about his training with Tian Ren and everything else he could think of.
The room was in a gloomy silence. Only Tian Ren's wife began to speak.
"Before anything else, we need to get the hell out of here. Everyone occupying a square is already back. We will take the flying ship as instructed in the emergency code." She said.
The flying ship was a space shattering realm item that flew in the air. With its size, it could carry a billion people if they were squeezed together and stacked on top of each other.
Luckily, there weren't that many at the base.
Tian Ren's wife disappeared, soon followed by the others in the room, leaving Guang Fu alone.
Guang Fu soon exited as well, albeit many times slower. Before long, the Heaven base had been fully evacuated onto the flying ship. The flying ship was as big as the Heaven base itself.
It soon raised into the air and flew away at a speed equal to those first level space shattering realm cultivators.
After a week and a lot of teleportation arrays, the ship was much more packed than before. Along the way, the ship stopped at another planet and evacuated a lot more people. The world was not fully evacuated, but a lot more trips would start once the current group got back. They would evacuate all of the worlds leading to the final world.
Once the group reached yet another teleportation array, the same exiting procedure was followed. The ship was far too big to enter the array, so they had to individually leave every time. This time, however, the ship would not be following.
The array led to the heaven world. Once they entered, they would be free to go wherever, but most would go to the Heaven sect.
Guang Fu entered the array following the line, but not before Tian Ren's wife handed him a talisman.
"We will reach out to you soon." She said.
Guang Fu nodded and disappeared into the array.
—----------------------------------
In the final world, on a flat mountain, a single humanoid creature that seemed like a cloth bag stood.
In front of him was a wooden grave. He had personally made it.
"We had our ups and downs, and even worked together for a while, but it seems our time ends now." Bi Chong said to the grave.
"While I can't say I liked you, I wish we could have battled again. Goodbye forever Tian Ren. Don't worry, I'll be sure to take care of the Heavenborns for you." He said with a chuckle.
Suddenly, a lightning strike shot down and destroyed the grave.
"Hahaha." Bi Chong laughed as he walked away.
