The Irregular In ATG

"I can't still believe of its existence, even though I'm already standing before it."

"We share the same thoughts."

Two figures stood amidst the darkness that engulfed them. They both emanated a very peaceful aura that seemed to carry the very symbol of calmness. However, a very tremendous power hid beneath their eyes, befitting an emperor that sat on their own thrones.

Despite their otherworldly demeanor that seemed to isolate them from ordinary people, they are lacking compared to the gigantic archaic gate that is situated before them. The gate emitted a very ancient aura that completely surpassed everything that these two figures had ever encountered.

"I still remember when the senior from that place came. Even the primitive aura that covered that senior's body is lacking before this gate."

"In the end, what in the world is this gate? For it to suddenly materialize out of nowhere is suspicious…"

"It might be something that heavens had sent to help us."

They both talked to themselves, feeling rather intrigued by the mysteriousness that covered the gate's origin. They still remembered how this gate just suddenly appeared in the middle of their territory.

Fortunately, the gate had appeared on the underground of the villa, hence it didn't cause that much chaos. It also helped them conceal its sudden appearance, which made things advantageous for them. In this way, they would be able to contact that place.

If someone saw these two figures acting like some bodyguards, they would be shocked speechless. After all, these two figures are the prominent grand elders of the Heavenly Sword Villa. They both possessed the cultivation prowess of a Throne that could annihilate a country region easily.

*Swoosh*

Air wasn't present at the least, yet a wind breeze just flew by these two figures. They both turned their head towards the direction of the wind, and saw a middle-aged man wearing a luxurious type of robe appear before them.

"Clan Head…"

The two figures slightly bowed their heads, showing their respect and loyalty towards the newcomer. The latter wasn't any ordinary figure either, as he is the current leader of the whole Heavenly Sword Villa.

Ling Tianni, the current villa master, who was said to be the most powerful individual within the Blue Wind Empire. Lightning sparks that contained destruction flickered across his eyes, emitting a rather dangerous vibe.

"Mm. The seniors from the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region will soon arrive, grand elders."

"I see. For now, we'll guard this gate just in case something unexpected happens."

"Thank you for your effort, grand elders."

Ling Tianni, cupped both of his fists, conveying his gratitude towards the two figure. His face remained still and stoic the whole time. He then turned his body around, and instantly vanished from the two figures' sight.

"If they are coming, then this gate isn't ordinary at all."

"Maybe something that completely surpasses our comprehension lies beyond that gate."

They all stared at the gate before them, while trying to see through the gate. However, even with their all effort, they couldn't scrutinize anything from the gate at all. All they could sense is a desolate land filled with fog.

…

It has been more than a few hours, and Tatsuya was still sleeping within his bed. The Kokyu Cultivation Technique unceasingly utilized this moment, allowing Tatsuya to cultivate further. His cultivation stage had already reached 6th stage of the True Profound Realm.

If others saw his insane improvements, they would vomit blood. After all, breaking through is not an easy feat for everybody, and breaking through to another stage while sleeping is a completely different matter.

His roommate whom he hadn't even once interacted with, had already began practicing somewhere within the villa, leaving Tatsuya alone within the dormitory room. The formation diagram that Tatsuya had planted within the room, still shone at its full glory.

To avoid the exposure of the formation diagram, Tatsuya added another formation diagram on the top of the base diagram. It is a diagram that would fool others' mind, making their own senses unaware of the formation diagram.

It seemed rather easy, but it's actually very difficult. The mere fact that Tatsuya had added the diagram that could fool others had increased the difficulty into another level.

Usually, one would make the formation diagram invisible from others' sight, but Tatsuya already foresaw that it wouldn't work. Cultivators have keen senses, making them the nemesis of illusions. Their hearts have been honed to the point that they instantly see through some weak illusions.

And, Tatsuya wasn't that skilled at Formation Mastery at the moment, that he could completely make the formation diagram invisible from the cultivators that possess the cultivation of Sky Profound Realm and up.

*Thud*

Suddenly, Tatsuya's eyelids completely opened, as he stood up completely, resembling a spear that won't back down against anything. Currently, his innate ability, Elemental Sight, had detected some presence that carried power beyond his current grasp.

(Why are there suddenly multiple presences within the gate?)

Tatsuya thought to himself, obviously bewildered by the current situation. Through his eyes, he could sense the vast power that the presences carried on their body. It's as if a very large cloud is unceasingly enveloping these figures. And that cloud represents their ultimate strength.

(Based from their aura alone, all three of them are at the Sovereign Profound Realm. Looks like they are here to retrieve the inheritance within the gate…)

Tatsuya clenched both of his fists, clearly provoked by their sudden appearance. Now that they had appeared, Tatsuya had realized that his interest is at stake. Furthermore, his plans would get disrupted once these Monarchs had gotten the inheritance ahead of him.

(I can't believe that the same day I found the gate, the same day that these people would appear out of nowhere…)

Tatsuya slightly shook his head, expressing his disappointment and worry over the matter. Although, he seemed slightly agitated by the sudden development of things, he had come prepared if such thing really happened. And, things had really developed to the stage which he had never hoped to happen.

(Right now, fighting those Monarchs are simply impossible. However, I'm at the advantage here. After all, they are not aware that inside the dimension, they would be stripped of their cultivation base…)

When Tatsuya had accessed the Information Dimension, he could slightly sense the state of the place beyond the gate. Although, he couldn't sense the information about the place completely, he had managed to retrieve some vital information that could help him.

This piece of information was also one of the reasons, why he's so confident at directly entering the Heavenly Sword Villa. He already knew from the start that everything inside that gate will be dangerous even for those Monarchs.

(They finally entered the inheritance dimension, huh. Looks like all three of this villa's Throne had entered too. Only Sky Profound Realm individuals are currently guarding that place…)

Tatsuya took a step forward, walking leisurely towards the Mission Hall. Every step of his signified the non-stop increase of his power. The tyrannical attribute that lied dormant this whole time was slowly getting aggravated by Tatsuya's call.

(Heavenly Yin Profound Veins allow me to completely control the Yin energies that exist within this universe… Darkness which signifies nothingness itself is under my absolute control!)

Darkness is a very mysterious energy, as it signified different kind of state. Evil, destruction, and absolute nothingness, are all but part of it. Despite being dominant enough to envelop these states, it's nothing before the Yin itself.

Tatsuya made sure that no one could sense him, with the help of his Elemental Sight. He took a turn towards an alleyway without anyone noticing him. Even Mo Yan'er that observed Tatsuya all this time, wouldn't be able to hide from Tatsuya's godly perception.

Under from no one's gaze, Tatsuya's body had begun to vanish into nothingness. Not a thread of him remained in the alley way, he had completely vanished from the world. Tatsuya had entered the state of nothingness, with the help of the Heavenly Yin Profound Veins.

In an instant, Tatsuya had already arrived before the gigantic gate of the White Tiger God's inheritance. He arrived with the state of nothingness, as the Sky Profound Realm cultivators that remained on guard, couldn't detect him at all.

(Hm. They even deployed the geniuses of the villa here… That should be Ling Yun, eh.)

Tatsuya thought to himself, as he directed his gaze towards a specific group within the perimeter. This group is the most conspicuous compared to everybody else. After all, within that group were the geniuses of the villa, including Ling Yun, Mo Yan'er, and other core disciples which Tatsuya had never saw.

(Since the door is currently closed, looks like I can't avoid creating a commotion…)

Tatsuya said to himself, while his innate ability Baryon Lance slowly floated into his mind. The profound chants that were condensed to his memory, slowly brightened. He extended his hand forward and targeted the gate.

(Baryon Lance, Activate.)

*Boom!*

An ear-piercing sound appeared and entered the ears of those people that guarded the gate. They all failed to react under that sudden attack. Ling Yun, one of the strongest people out here, tried to trace the person who had fired off that attack, but he couldn't.

"Who in the world fired that attack?!"

"Remain on guard, everyone!"

Mo Yan'er, with her Partial Divine Sense, also couldn't trace the one who had used that attack. She stared at the slightly opened gigantic gate before them, and felt oddly familiar of something. She felt a vibe that constantly told her of something, which she's having a hard time comprehending it.

Despite the large obstacle that was situated before the gate, that seemed to have the purpose of blocking the way inside, Tatsuya used his insane physical prowess and easily passed through it. No one could detect him, as everybody still remained on guard.

His steps, every movement of his, were concealed with the help of his current state. After all, entering the state of nothingness is different from being invisible. At Tatsuya's current state, his body currently exists in another dimension which only people with absolute control over darkness, could enter.

After a few dozens of minutes, Ling Yun and others still failed to detect any foreign presence. They didn't let their guard down, as they all notice the gate closing by itself. No one spoke about that sudden attack, and all chose to keep quiet.

"Just what in the world is it…?"

Currently, Mo Yan'er ignored the soothing statements of the man beside her. Even though the man is putting all of his effort at courting Mo Yan'er, the girl wasn't even listening at all. Mo Yan'er is currently recalling the weird vibe that she felt from that attack.

Even after all the effort that she had painstakingly used, in the end, she just gave up. She couldn't remember something that could help her connect that weird vibe into something else.

Everyone remained on guard, and waited for the prominent figures of the Heavenly Sword Villa to come out. They are completely oblivious that someone had already passed under their nose…
