349: It is easy to follow the will of heaven, but difficult to go against it!

Defying Heaven Alliance!

What an… arrogant name!

Lin Ang truly couldn't imagine what kind of power could come up with such a name.

But he still politely said, “Miss Ye, thank you for what happened before, and also for accidentally hitting you like this; it was purely by accident. I truly didn't recognize you when you first arrived.”

“It's fine,” Miss Ye said indifferently, “I'm perfectly fine, aren't I? Just breaking all my bones once, it's a small matter.”

“Moreover…” She paused, “You don't need to call me Miss Ye; just call me Ye Xiao. As for helping me at the city gate earlier, please don't mention it again.”

“I'm afraid you'll laugh at me, but with your strength, entering would be effortless. I was merely showing off my meager skills.”

“No, no matter what, I've remembered the favor of your help earlier, and I will never refuse if you need anything in the future,” Lin Ang said seriously.

“Certainly,” Ye Xiao said, “Let's talk about the main topic now. I believe you have many questions, including about the Defying Heaven Alliance. Why don't you go first?”

So, Lin Ang nodded and began to voice his questions.

“I want to ask, what's the deal with your abilities, and what was the situation with that Lord Zhao who stopped me at the city gate earlier?”

He hadn't forgotten that even someone as powerful as the Little Holy Mother, who saved him, had perished here.

If he wasn't more careful, death would be a matter of time.

That Lord Zhao was the only person with extraordinary power he had encountered previously.

He had originally wanted to ask him, but he tried to kill him and boasted so much about his own power.

As a result, Lin Ang believed him, and after making a move, he accidentally killed him.

Given this, after arriving, he had planned to ask the City Lord, which was why he had deliberately avoided acting against him.

Then Ye Xiao appeared here and was accidentally injured by him.

Lin Ang felt that asking someone with similar commonalities like Ye Xiao would definitely be much better than asking an amateur like the City Lord.

“My abilities?” Ye Xiao thought for a moment and said, “Let's talk about that Lord Zhao first.”

Lin Ang said it was fine; it didn't matter which one they discussed first.

“Do you know about the Jiantian Division?” Ye Xiao asked.

“No,” Lin Ang shook his head. He had indeed killed someone from the Jiantian Division, but he truly didn't know what the other party meant by the Jiantian Division.

He used to just be a farmer, and regarding such things, probably anyone in the city knew more than him.

Seeing that Lin Ang didn't know, Ye Xiao began to explain, “The Jiantian Division was established at the beginning of the Great Zhou Dynasty. At that time, the world was newly settled.”

“Various places were still turbulent and unstable, and practitioners often acted recklessly, disturbing the peace of the world.”

“The Jiantian Division was specifically created to eliminate those practitioners in the folk who violated laws and caused chaos.”

“Practitioners?” Lin Ang's eyes lit up. He knew he hadn't asked the wrong person; they were getting straight to the point. He then asked Ye Xiao to explain it thoroughly.

Ye Xiao was not surprised by Lin Ang's lack of knowledge in this area.

Most wild practitioners were like this, suddenly gaining powerful abilities due to some fortuitous encounter.

But without elder's inheritance or guidance, they didn't know many common facts about practitioners and could only slowly explore on their own.

Furthermore, with the Jiantian Division having purged one group after another, there weren't many practitioners left in the folk.

It was perfectly normal for Lin Ang not to know these things.

Ye Xiao then explained to him, “Practitioners, also known as Heaven Transcenders, are divided into one to nine turns. Each turn represents a huge difference.”

“With each turn's improvement, one can eventually move mountains and overturn seas, becoming omnipotent.”

“It is rumored that upon reaching nine turns, one can communicate with the will of heaven, and there is even a saying of ‘Nine Turns to Godhood’.”

“But as for what happens after nine turns, only the Grand Tutor of the Jiantian Division knows.”

Seeing Lin Ang deep in thought, Ye Xiao continued to add, “Additionally, that Lord Zhao who stopped you was a Second Turn practitioner from the Jiantian Division.”

Lin Ang asked curiously, “Miss Ye, may I ask what turn you are?”

Ye Xiao replied, “My strength is merely that of a First Turn, and my rapid recovery is due to my special physique.”

“Then what turn do you think I am?”

This Heaven Transcender system seemed somewhat different from the Spirit Activation System of the Holy Mother Sect.

Because the Little Holy Mother had only taught him cultivation experience related to the Holy Mother Sect system and great qualities.

As a result, he had always thought that the Holy Mother Sect was a power located somewhere in their world.

But now, it seemed that wasn't the case.

He had noticed during the previous battle that at first, he thought that Lord Zhao was too confident in his own strength and disdained activating patterns.

Which was why he currently didn't have an accurate estimate of his own strength.

“Hmm…” Ye Xiao pondered for a moment after hearing him, then replied, “Based on my estimation, your strength should be at the peak of the Third Turn.”

“As for whether you've reached the Fourth Turn, I can't guarantee it, as that realm is too far from me.”

“Third Turn to Fourth Turn, huh?” Lin Ang nodded, “Alright, I understand. Can you tell me about your Defying Heaven Alliance then?”

“I was just about to talk about that,” Upon mentioning this, Ye Xiao's complexion visibly brightened, and she introduced it to Lin Ang,

“The Defying Heaven Alliance is a power composed of a group of people who have escaped their original destinies and were supposed to die.”

“Like me, I was originally supposed to be taken by bandits during an outing, dragged to their stronghold, and gang-raped to death.”

“Before that, I awakened these eyes, which allowed me to see that everyone is actually being controlled by some kind of existence.”

“I also sensed my impending fate, so I prepared in advance and managed to escape.”

“But ever since then, I frequently encountered various calamities.”

“However, with these eyes, I managed to get through them all, albeit with some scares.”

“As time went on, the crises I faced became increasingly difficult to resolve.”

“Later, a group of people calling themselves the Defying Heaven Alliance found me.”

“They said that I had escaped my predetermined fate, but everything was a permissible error.”

“Such an error would initially be cleared with a very small force.”

“But as I lived longer and longer, the error I caused became greater and greater, and its impact grew.”

“Then the power used to eliminate me would also become increasingly strong.”

“Until finally, I would be completely killed, and all the impact I caused would be smoothed over!”

“They call such people Defiers of Heaven, because every day they live is a day they fought for from the heavens.”

If that were the case, he, Lin Ang, could also be called a Defier of Heaven.

Because he was saved twice by the Little Holy Mother; what else could that be but defying heaven?

Ye Xiao continued, “They said, if I joined them, they would teach me cultivation methods. Although they couldn't guarantee I would live, they could guarantee I would live longer.”

“Not only that, because of the special circumstances of Defiers of Heaven, among them, the longer one lives, the stronger one's power often becomes.”

“For example, the Alliance Leader of the Defying Heaven Alliance, his cultivation has reached the peak of the Eighth Turn.”
