The Golden Throne

"Zeus?"

"It seems that you still recognize me boy. That's a good thing, that is a good thing. I was worried that you would go crazy thinking that you would die." Zeus' voice laughed.

"What are you doing here? I thought that you spirits were unable to leave the spirit realm?" Liu Feng asked.

"I told you when I made a contract with you, didn't I? I would give you three chances to save your life. Any more and your body wouldn't be able to handle it. Now is time to cash into one of those chances." Zeus said.

"But I am already dead. What can we do now? My body is destroyed." Liu Feng said.

"You forget child. I am not a normal spirit. I am the king of them all. I am the lord of even the king spirits. And I do not have a normal element. I control the laws of space and time. I was worried that you would not be able to have enough mana, but you are surrounded by a sea of it. Now isn't that very convenient?" Zeus chuckled.

"But where is all that mana? Don't tell me that you want to use the mana from that mana crystal! All of that is corrupted mana from the demons. We cannot use that mana. That would not work right? You and the spirits cannot use corrupted mana. I spent days just removing a sliver away from my body." Liu Feng exclaimed.

"Do not worry child. Mana is but a way to use power. It is the channel through which we spirits process our thoughts, and make real what we think. Corrupted mana is indeed, the mana which is no longer from the continent, but of the demon continent's, but all that will do is hamper how we use it. There is not a demon here that would use this mana, and the demon king is not looking. Why not take a little and use it for our own? Although this is an experiment that I have never tried before, your stint in the magical forest gave me a new found confidence in this." Zeus said.

Liu Feng wanted to move, but he still could not. All he could see was his body, the tattoos on it, and he felt his left eye burning. 

Wait. Tattoos?

"Why the hell are there tattoos?" Liu Feng looked at his body. There were indeed four tatoos on his body.

"The marks of the spirits! They are still on my body!" Liu Feng realized.

He still felt pain in his left eye, and it was growing stronger by the moment. He recalled the moment of the contract ceremony. At the end, Zeus had given him one final gift by completing the contract on his left eye. The mark was there, and it was acting up right now.

"Is he turning back time? If only I could see it. I would understand what was happening." Liu Feng sighed.

All of a sudden, his left eye started glowing. In the black space that he was floating in, a sudden light came from his head, illuminating a path. It was bright, and it looked like there was a flash light tied to his head.

He felt his body moving, pulled back. He tried to turn to see what was happening, but nothing happened. He could still not move his body. 

The darkness faded away, and Liu Feng could see that the area around him was purple, and he could see a huge purple field of sorts.

"This is where I died." Liu Feng realized.

Liu Feng could move his neck, and he looked down now. He was mid air, and he could see exactly where he was. He was in the middle of the sky, and could see a lot of buildings. But foremost among them, he could see the center of this purple field. He could see a tiny dot there, and knew that it was the exact place where he had met his demise.

"I still cannot believe it. How did it come to this? Why did my own father betray me? Why do such things keep happening to me?" Liu Feng muttered. 

"Remember Liu Feng. I did not save you because of the sad and regretting person that you are right now. I am taking such a big risk because of that one speech you gave. You did not want to resign your fate to someone else. Then do not. Here you are. I am giving you a new lease in life. Enjoy it." Zeus said.

Liu Feng heard a snap of a finger, and he felt a huge suctioning power. He felt himself falling down fast, and he suddenly stopped right at the ground. He could not move for a little while, but Liu Feng knew well and good where he was. He knew this familiar feeling. It was his own body, and he loved it. He missed it immensely, and he got it back.

"I am back! I am alive!  A third chance!" Liu Feng shouted, but no noise came out of his throat. 

"Looks like I am still too tired. It will take a while to get some rest. I need to get back to optimal state as fast as I can. The whole kingdom will be in uproar if this information spreads. I need to give them a signal. But how?" Liu Feng thought to himself. He tilted his head.

He could see a glinting ring on his hand.

"My spatial ring is still intact? How is this possible?" he thought to himself.

He tried to will some mana towards it, but he couldn't. He felt no mana in his body.

"Impossible! How did you come back to life? This is truly a miracle!" Liu Feng heard Avian exclaim.
