The Crown's Change
"Sun Tian!" the Sun family younger generation yelled in unison.
"How did you do that," Sun Zai asked with amazement, "you're only Ninth Stage Body Refining, just like me. How did you kill that beast?"
Sun Tian smiled mysteriously in response. He looked over at Nigh Qaz and saw her look of sadness.
"How many of them died?" Sun Tian asked.
"4 out of the 10 that came with me died," Nigh Qaz said
"Sun Zai, how many of our Sun family has died?" Sun Tian asked.
Sun Zai suddenly had a sad look cross over his face as he said: "Out of the 12 people that came to this Yellow Mountain Forest, 5 have perished."
Sun Tian gave a long sigh as he looked up towards the heavens.
"I can only hope they rest in peace." Sun Tian said while mourning.
Sun Tian glanced at his Sun family's young generation and at the Nigh family's young generation while saying: "let's head back to our families."
------------------------
Sun Tian, Nigh Qaz and the rest of them finally stepped out of the forest to see their families standing there waiting for them.
Sun Wai and Nigh Cew suddenly had big smiles on their faces as the saw most of their families were still fine. Sun Wai's smile was even bigger than Nigh Cew's because he noticed his son had broken through to the Ninth Stage Body Refining. On the other side of the spectrum, Vort Fer looked incomparably pissed.
"Where is my family?" Vort Fer asked to seemingly no one.
"They are all dead," Sun Tian responded.
"WHAT?!?!"
Nigh Cew and Sun Wai had a confused look on their faces as they simply couldn't understand how all of the Vort family's young generation could have passed away.
"Tian-er what do you mean?" Sun Wai asked his son.
"Well, Vort Goi tried to kill me but he got too confident and ended up being killed himself." Sun Tian said
"As for the rest of them, I happened to see them being slaughtered by a First Stage Purple Lightning Mouse" Sun Tian continued while completely ignoring the dark look that passed over Vort Fer's face.
"You killed my son?" Vort Fer asked with his body shaking from contained rage.
"Yes, I did. Watching the despair in his eyes as I snapped his neck was a great experience," Sun Tian said with a laugh to anger Vort Fer even more.
"YOU LITTLE BASTARD!!" Vort Fer yelled while dashing towards Sun Tian.
As he dashed forwards a gold-lined saber condensed in Vort Fer's hands. This was Vort Fer's Martial Soul, a Tier 4 Weapon Class Saber. Suddenly a beam of light appeared in front of Sun Tian which smacked Vort Fer backward into a tree causing the tree to snap in half.
"Old bastard Vort do you think I don't exist," Sun Tian's father said while protecting his son.
Sun Wai stood tall in front of Sun Tian. If someone were to look closely they would see black and white tiger stripes running down Sun Wai's back. This showed that Sun Wai had condensed a Beast Class Tiger Martial Soul.
"Sun Wai do you want me to declare war against you Sun family?" Vort Fer threatened
"Vort Fer do you think I won't kill you here and now?" Sun Wai retorted.
Vort Fer looked even angrier as he stared at Sun Wai. Nigh Cew suddenly appeared between the two of them.
"Can you two give this Nigh some face and stop bickering?" Nigh Cew said with a chuckle.
It was clear at a glance that Nigh Cew was extremely happy at the death of the Vort Family's death. This made Vort Fer so livid that anyone there could see some blood spirt out of his mouth in anger. Laughter could be heard ringing through the sky as Sun Wai and the rest of the Sun family went back to Sea Breeze Town.
----------------------
"Tian-er how did you break through to the Ninth Stage Body Refining so quickly," Sun Wai asked his son.
"Just some lucky encounters," Sun Tian said without giving any more information.
Sun Wai gave a chuckle as he said: "Ok keep being mysterious then. I will commission Elder Nuy to make you a Soul Helping Pill. I just need to get a soul stone for you."
"You don't have to worry about that," Sun Tian said while handing his father the soul stone he got from the Purple Lightning Mouse.
"Tian-er where did you get this from?" Sun Wai said with amazement shining in his eyes.
"I got it from the Purple Lightning Mouse that slaughtered the Vort family's young generation."
"You killed a Violent Beast?!"
"Yes, Father. The Purple Lightning Mouse was already injured from its fight with the Vort family members so I took the opportunity to end its life."
"Well, that saves me a trip to the Yellow Mountain Forest."
--------------------------------
After an hour Sun Tian sat in his room with his legs crossed holding a pill with a slight blue hue. This pill is the Soul Helping Pill that Sun Wai asked Elder Nuy to make. Elder Nuy is the Sun family's alchemist. Sun Tian took a couple of deep breaths as he calmed himself. After a couple of seconds, he popped the Soul Helping Pill into his mouth. He felt it slide down his throat and land in his stomach. After the pill reached his stomach he felt it melt and greats amount of energy started to flow out into his meridians. He drove the 81 Cycles Yin-Yang Art to control this energy. He moved it towards his Martial Souls. He noticed that once the energy reached his Dantian it suddenly fell from his control and moved on its own to his Martial Souls. 50 percent of energy went to his Tier 9 Ice Martial Soul while the remaining 50 percent went to his Tier 2 Crown Martial Soul.
"What in the world? Isn't it only a Tier 2 Martial Soul? How can it absorb this much energy." Sun Tian asked while being very confused.
Suddenly Sun Tian felt the 81 Cycles Yin-Yang Art start to drive crazily without him controlling it. As this happened he noticed his Tier 2 Crown Martial Soul started to glow and a terrible soul tearing pain ripped through his body.
"AHHHHHH!!"
Sun Tian grit his teeth and checked the situation in his Dantian again. He noticed that his Tier 2 Crown Martial Soul had changed drastically. It actually had changed from being Tier 2 all the way to Tier 9!
