Lintian leaps a couple meters back to distance himself from those 8 demonic beast. He was trying to think of a way to keep his attack as high. His heaven qi knife was about to run out juice and if he has to waste two soul penetrating punch on each demonic beast then after one or two waves of demonic beasts after the heaven qi knife run out of juice then he basically has to end this run. Lintian was hoping to get the best possible reward here.

“Mr. Rashu can you help me check something?” Lintian asks. He was thinking about that mysterious sword he brought a week ago. If his heaven qi knife runs out of power then killing these demonic beast will become incomparable hard. It takes two soul penetrating punches directly to the head to temple to kill one tier three demonic beast. So it is not looking too bright.

Two of those rats launches their attack. They were fast. Lintian flashes forward towards one of the rat and directly use the knife to kill it. Kyuri killed the other one. Furthermore the moment Lintian kills the rat the two leopards attacks Lintian together. Lintian used the Emperor’s step xiang to create multiple illusions of himself. Five images were created but they were true fakes. Meaning Lintian did not bother moving back and forth to make those a moving image.

The snakes each took one image and the bear also took a different image too. Kyuri moved on to the leopards and kill one. Lintian moves to one of the snakes and cuts off it’s head. It was actually faster than he anticipated. Lintian cuts the body in half. It still died but the chances were higher if it was closer to the body.

4 day four more to go. Lintian thought and moves toward the other leopard while Kyuri moves toward the snake. The two bears circles then charges at Lintian and Kyuri. Giving Lintian and Kyuri both just enough time to kill their respective opponents.

Lintian moves backward avoiding the bear’s swipe.

“Lintian do not kill it yet. This bear is the slowest of the eight here. We will have the leisure to talk about what you need help with,” Rashu said.

Lintian brought out the black sword he brought with his new dad a week ago. The moment Lintian touched it began to absorb Lintian’s conscious energy like crazy and began to repair the seals again.

“Interesting,” Rashu murmurs.

Kyuri killed the bear that attacked him. Then he went after the one Lintian was running away from.

“Kyuri wait don’t kill him yet. Keep him occupy for a bit.”

“Mr. Rashu whats going on?” Lintian asks frantically. The sword was absorbing his conscious energy at a rapid rate. Little by little Lintian was feeling tired. Even some of his qi was being sucked out of him.

“Don’t worry this sword is very, very special. I have seen this sword once before. The name of this weapon is the Void Sword. It’s a Japanese straight sword called the chokuto. As for its origin no one knows. Perhaps it is even a couple hundred million years old. The only way for you to come into possession of it is if you are chosen. Once the owner died the void sword will erase the print of the owner. Right now it is absorbing your conscious energy and qi if you have not noticed. It is filling in the gaps that it erase in order for it to identify its new owner. The requirements for this sword is quite high to be honest. Even I couldn't get it to accept me when I came across in my younger days. Thought it was a piece of trash before this human picked it up.”

“Mr. Rashu not to be rude or anything but can you cut to the point?” Lintian asks since he is about to fall asleep. For some reason he through he sees all this danger and his adrenaline is pumping the sword is just sapping the energy out of him.

“Right, normally in certain circumstances you would be fine but it takes 30 minutes for the transaction of a new owner so tell Kyuri to keep this bear busy for 30 minutes. Also at the initial stages this sword will not be as strong as the qi knife but it will be strong enough for you to kill tier three beast without an issue. It also contains three special abilities.”

Kyuri keep him occupied until I wake up Lintian mentally said to Kyuri before he fell asleep.

“Alright boss!” Kyuri replies. He does not know why but he actually talked for the first time mentally. Boss just sound so naturally to Kyuri since Lintian was always giving him commands.

With the sword in his hand Lintian fell into a deep slumber.

“SH*T!” swore Rashu under his breathe. He forgot to tell Lintian the most important part. It is that inside the sword is a test for the wielder. It is a test of resolution. If Lintian cannot pass it then he will die. Rashu frantically tried to enter into Lintian’s mind to warn him.

When Rashu was trying to enter he was blocked off. Surrounding Lintian’s soul was a black sphere. Unlike any martial skill or spell formation he has ever seen before. Rashu didn’t dare to get close but instead he used three soul attacks hoping to shatter it.

Instead this dark sphere absorbed it and destroyed those soul attack. It was like a dark hole absorbing everything. Even Light could not escape. There was nothing Rashu can do at this point. This dark energy was too powerful. Its power was at a Realm even he could not understand.

Kyuri continues his battle. He was use a hit and retreat tactic to extend the time. Normally he could kill this demonic bear in less than five-seconds but Lintian told him to do it for half an hour. Kyuri’s body was powerful enough to be comparable to a tier four due to the dragon blood and the lightning refinement that Lintian went through. Furthermore with his intelligence being far above this dumb bear he would have no problem with it. Thirty minutes? Piece of cake Kyuri thought.

Lintian woke up. He stood before a dreadful scene. The sky was red and the clouds were black. Lightning crashes through the sky. Mountains appeared around him but it was bare of life. The wind howled across this barren land. Two volcanos just finished it’s eruption and was leaking magma from its mouth. It was far away so Lintian was not in any danger.

Before Lintian was over a million corpses. They looked like they were suck dried of their blood. In the center of these corpse stood a man about twenty to thirty years old. His shirt was gone and his pants were scorched. He was muscular but toned. His dark black hair waving through the howling wind. A sword was in his hand and Lintian instantly recognizes this sword. It was the Void Sword. It was different from his. The back of the sword was completely black like a dark hole while the front of the blade was white like the burning sun.

The eyes of Lintian and this man met. Lintian felt the full force of this man’s killing intent. This was the killing intent of a killer of a couple million lives. If Lintian felt like an ant before Denzel then he felt like dust before this man. This killing intent was enough to make a grown immortal wet himself.
