《The Solitary Sword Sovereign》True Strike One Shot
Advertisement
Ibrahim was at full strength with the first Door opened, while Will was under a massive debuff from Mystic Sandstorm. So Will decided to even the odds a bit. He opened his first door. The moment he did so, the yuan in his body exploded, sending a shockwave of power to spread throughout his body.
Will and Ibrahim had both opened the first door, but the power increase was not the same. Will cultivated The Solitary Sword Sovereign manual, a manual that even immortals longed for! Manuals had different ranks as well. And the difference in power gain is one of the reasons why those ranks existed.
Another reason was that Will had achieved Martial Harmony, so his energy efficiency in terms of output was incredibly high. This plus the boy's natural talent in cultivation meant his First Door opening released a qi output similar to that of Ibrahim opening his second door!
The moment he opened the door, he regained his senses somewhat. Everything in a 20-meter radius became clear to him. His connection to water molecules in 20 meters was strong, despite there not being many, so his aqua sense was strong. So it was no shock that he could catch Ibrahim's blade.
Ibrahim backed off into the sandstorm. He was too mentally into this to be shocked, all he cared about was the end result.
'This time I will use a skill with my attack! I wanted to prevent you from experiencing too much harm, but you leave me no choice!'
Ibrahim covered his blade in sand and activated Sands of Time one again. This time he targeted Will's right eye with a diagonal strike.
'Time to end the farce.'
Will put his hand on his sword and got ready. Ibrahim was only a meter away when Will drew his sword and resheathed it like lightning. This was not a simple stroke. It was one of Will's weapons. A True Strike!

Suffice to say that the storm was blasted apart. Will intentionally missed Ibrahim's body by veering to the left a bit. The damage behind Ibrahim spread continuously for many miles. As if a giant celestial sword had sliced through the city!
Ibrahim's sword was only a few centimeters from Will's eye. Ibrahim had not been touched by Will's attack at all. But his body was sweating bullets. He knew that he had just survived death!
My word, never had the man felt so close to death. Will moved like lightning, but Ibrahim still caught part of the beginning. When Will was pulling out his sword, it was as if the world became black and white. Time slowed down, chills ran down his spine, while all he could see of his future was a flash of light and then darkness! He stopped himself as best as he could, completely petrified by what he had just experienced.
"The only reason you are still alive is that there was no real killing intent when you attacked me." Will walked past the dumbstruck Ibrahim while patting his shoulder.
Everyone observing was dumbstruck. The sandstorm was blasted away by a blinding light. Once the light was gone, Will stood still with his hand on his sword while Ibrahim was stuck in an odd position. It was clearly a mid attack posture. Not to mention the gargantuan damage that had happened behind him. Only a fool would be unable to guess what happened.
'This kid, this kid is…'
Alexa was mindblown. She wasn't sure what she had just seen, thanks to the blocking effect of Mystic Sandstorm, but she was sure of one thing.
'This kid is a beast in human form!'
As Will walked toward them, Alexa started contemplating a serious question in her mind.

'If Ibrahim was at full strength, could he block that?'
Alexa looked at the damage Will's true strike had done and shook her head.
'He is strong but Ibrahim was severely limited, he couldn't use most of his powerful skills and his senses were weaker. If he was in full power, the kid wouldn't have a chance to do anything.'
Alexa consoled herself in this manner. But she had no idea that Will had also held back a lot. He limited his use of intent and didn't even use Bloodlust. Not to mention that he didn't even summon the two creatures that his new skill had gifted him. There was also a plethora of skills he didn't use like Suijin no Ikari and so on. If Ibrahim was at full strength, he would not only lose to Will again but would probably die. In a serious battle at full power, holding back was difficult, like the saying goes, fists have no eyes.
Of course, Will knew this, but there was no need for them to know how powerful he was. That would virtually be screaming 'Hey I'm Peerless Dao Master!' which would not help his cause.
Will snorted, 'I'm probably one of the main candidates on many people's lists anyway, don't wanna make it even worse.'
Will intended to walk to Letty, but his Aqua Sense picked up something, something that his face serious. Will created a staircase of ice and shouted.
"Letty come down, now! It seems we have an uninvited guest."
Will's strangely serious tone spooked Letty to go down the stairs. She wasn't as mystified as to the others as she about Will's skills somewhat. Letty was curious about what kind of guest Will was talking about, so she quickly ran to him.
Alexa summoned Taiga, who had materialized next to her. "Have you picked up the presence on anyone nearby?"
Taiga shook his head and said, "There is no one in 10 miles of here. I can assure you."
As soon as the ninja said this, a strange screech entered everyone's ears. At first, it wasn't clear, but after a while it became clear. It sounded like a screech, but it was actually singing. The singer was just extremely bad. The lyrics were odd and sang as if the man was yodeling. But each word made everyone cringe. As if each word was a step toward death. As soon as Alexa heard the words, her whole body shook and she gulped.
"Oh me darlin, oh me darlin, oh me darlin Clementineeeeee!"

Legendary Farmer (available on Kindle July 2022!)
NOTE: Legendary Farmer is now COMPLETE. The first book, Clearing, was released on Kindle Unlimited July 5, 2022 with significant edits. I will post the first chapter of Clearing, as well as three chapters of Cuckoo's Dream, another novel in the LF universe, as a stub, with a link to the first book, so if you love LF and want me to be able to keep writing consistently, please go give Clearing five stars! In the VRMMORPG, Veritas Online, things are getting a little stale. Since the game launched, only one world- wide event has occurred, and that was a year ago.. The players are still having fun, but everyone agrees it’s about time for something big to happen. Everybody tends to forget that big things grow from small things, and little things are always changing in Veritas.The human country of Quarternell is at peace for the first time in... ever. Aspen, a former war hero, feels like he’s earned a quiet life together with his animal companions. They’re tired of fighting, and other people in general. They plan to live peacefully, far away from the city. As soon as Aspen figures out this farming thing out, he’s never going to go anywhere again. Unfortunately for Aspen, his country and his goddess aren’t quite done with him yet.Rouge the Rogue is a casual gamer in Veritas Online. She’s just a kid, and her focus is supposed to be on school and hanging out with friends. Emphasis on ‘supposed to’. She’s already pretty good at the school thing, and she doesn’t actually have that many friends. What she really loves is exploring all the cool ways the developers of Veritas found to make their game unique and realistic. Then she’s offered a very special quest, and an opportunity to go beyond the average player. She’s never been that much of a rule follower anyway....Clearing is appropriate for most ages. It has minimal foul language, no sex, and some violence. It is LGBTQ+ friendly. (P.S. IMPORTANT! This book contains very mild profanity, no sex, and is meant to be FUN. Yes, the characters sometimes think Deep Thoughts, and idealism pretty much runs rampant, but, in the end, I hope you just enjoy reading it. Laugh, cry, share it with your kids, read it to your dog, whatever makes you happy. My goal is for it to be accessible to everyone from ages 12ish on up, so you could definitely consider it YA, but with lots of big words because I don't believe in talking down to my readers.) Book Two: Harrowing (Starts after the original Chapter Fifty, now Sixteen, since I condensed chapters from the same perspective together.) Zoey has started her summer internship at Veritas Corporation, and she can honestly say that being an adult is boring. Until she starts learning secrets she was never supposed to know. In game, Rouge is finally making progress on her big quest. Apparently Duke Penbrooke took too long to return to the world, so the world is coming to get him... in the form of a few assassins. Aspen is going to have to face the life he left behind, and deal with the fact that it's not as easy being 'dead' as he thought. When what he'd hoped would be a short trip back to civilization to resupply turns into a whole lot more, he'll have to fight for his life, his friends, and his kingdom. Book Three: Sowing Rouge and Aspen have reached Bright, only to find that their enemies were already expecting them. They will have to quickly unravel the mysteries of who their opponents actually are, because they're already ten steps behind. Rouge and Aspen are finally home, but that doesn't mean they can return to their peaceful days of farming. Their enemies are hot on their heels and determined to destroy everything they've managed to achieve. Join them and all their friends for the final volume of Legendary Farmer.

Hope
There were 2 options: Fight the same war for countless more aeons. Shatter the Betrayer's undead legions time and time again until all was ground to dust. Because the endless legions truly never end. A hair's breath of ground in a century is enough if the war takes all of eternity. Or to choose Hope. To cast away his memories, his power, his very life. To wager everything on a chance to prevent their eventual end or to perish trying. Because if he were to return it would be with the power necessary to finally slay what remains of the Betrayer. Of the last Aspect. Only then would all things be right. And so, he chose the latter. Expect:Weak to strong quick-ish.Powerful MC reincarnates, gradually starts regaining memories.MC that is an actual character not a plot device.My original unique magic system discovered along with the MC.My original setting with mythos that have both been living rent free in my head for actual years.Opening arc will be less fast than the following story. Good writing (I think) and grammar. Upload schedulle: 2 chapters a week of 3-4k words each. I want to upscale to 3 in the future. Meant to be read in RR dark mode. For those coming here from my other stories, this is indeed a reimagining of my older story, CotM. I say reimagining because I have changed so much it cannot be called just a rewrite. Among the major changes, MC is fundamentally different in personality and background, I have actually planned the story out and changed it almost completely and I have adjusted my mythos so it no longer has as many holes as swiss cheese.
