Chapter 1655: Secret
36 sword phantoms struck the black shield to give off a series of slashing noises.
At that very next moment, another 72 slashes appeared, followed by 144 slashes, striking the shield in a systematic manner.
The old man suddenly turned around and shouted: “I’ve caught you!”
Numerous shadows gathered around his body, preparing to shoot forward——–
But the old man was stunned.
The one facing him wasn’t Gu Qing Shan at all, but a skeleton.
The skeleton simply opened its mouth, almost as if to silently mock him.
“SCRAM!” the old man furiously shouted.
Right as the old man was about to act, an intangible sword phantom appeared from the void of space and pierced directly through his head.
——Bygone Era Swordsmanship, [Causeless]!
The old man was paralyzed.
The skeleton performed a blurry sword dance with the two swords in its hand, all of which struck the old man’s body.
[Realm Spirit Descent] was activated once again!
An illusory Blood Sea manifested once again.
Masses of bloody fog flew down and continuously circled around the old man.
Some of these masses of bloody fog turned into beasts, some into beautiful women, some into skeletons, as well as some unprecedented evil creatures.
The old man didn’t receive any sort of attack in the middle of the bloody fog, but he continuously uttered resounding desperate screams.
After a while.
The old man’s soul emerged from his body, whisked away by the bloody fog into the Blood Sea.
The orange cat remained sitting in a secluded corner, observing this scene with a cold expression.
These continuously shape-shifting bloody fog had the capability to attack an enemy through their soul.
——this was so astronomically stronger compared to the blood-colored skeleton that he summoned in the beginning!
After fighting for a while, Gu Qing Shan had basically managed to grasp the ability [Realm Spirit Descent].
——as long as he continued to strike his enemies, he would be able to continuously summon more realm spirits to fight with him.
The more times he struck the more powerful the summoned realm spirits would become.
Of course, there was also a limit to this ability.
——–it can only activate when he actually hits an opponent.
Compared to that, the sword technique [Causeless] will begin to formulate a Causality Law as soon as he begins to attack.
However, [Causeless] was unable to kill the old man, while the realm spirits had a possibility of killing the old man simply because they contained Realm Force.
I wonder if I can grant Realm Force to my sword techniques as well later on——
While Gu Qing Shan was thinking about this, a black shadow shot into the sky.
The black shield had turned back into the shadow monster that continuously attacked in the air, forcing the bloody fog away from the old man one by one.
The old man’s soul immediately fell back down and entered his body.
“Hoh——– hoh—- hoh!”
The old man fell to his knees, breathing heavily.
I clearly wield the more powerful Realm Force.
I clearly have numerous techniques of boundless power.
But—–
He doesn’t show himself at all!
I can’t even attack him!
“Devil… you’re a devil in a ‘Pure’ disguise!” he cursed while his face was soaked in cold sweat.
The orange cat remained absolutely still.
He was looking at the old man with an emotionless gaze, the same kind he would show a suitable experimental subject.
—–after over a thousand strikes, I managed to summon the bloody fog that could directly attack the soul.
What’s next?
What would be the next thing to appear?
The orange cat turned his gaze to the void of space.
Two lines of glowing text were hovering there:
[Current number of hits: 1999]
[When you strike the enemy 2333 times, a new realm spirit will heed your summon and fight your enemy]
——over 300 attacks left.
The orange cat’s tail swung back and forth, feeling that things had gotten very interesting.
Is there no limit to this summoning?
Then what kind of realm spirit would I summon after striking an enemy over 10,000 times?
…If it was truly infinite summoning, then even if this was only the very first Realm Force, it would still be fearfully powerful.
The orange cat turned his gaze away from the void of space and turned to the old man.
——the old man’s cane had already been broken for a while, his formal clothing was also ripped all over the place, only barely hanging onto his body right now.
He seems to be in quite a desperate state.
The orange cat couldn’t help but clench its paws, silently rooting for the old man.
Do your best.
You need to hold out for a bit longer.
I really want to know what kind of powerful realm spirit would appear after I attack 10,000 times.
The orange cat raised his tail.
Following this gesture, three skeletons flew down from the void of space, each wielding two swords in their hands while surrounding the old man in the middle.
The old man was still breathing heavily but still shouted in anger: “Do you think I don’t have any subordinates!”
His hands began to move.
The orange cat’s eyes became sharp.
——You want to undo this barrier? Dream on!
Offering Iris Technique, [Mountain Wraith]!
A flash of light-blue lightning flickered in the orange cat’s eye and instantly struck the old man.
Being restrained in place, the old man’s hand gestures were also stopped.
A wraith made of lightning appeared from the void of space and entered the old man’s body.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the three skeletons came forward to fight against the ghostly shadow.
The orange cat stood up and headed to a different location.
—-constantly remaining in the same place would also increase the chances of him being discovered.
While moving about, he also glanced at the old man a few times.
Divine Skill, [Forgetting River Severance]!
Divine Skill, [Forgetting River Severance]!
[Forgetting River Severance]!
[River Severance]!
[Severance]!
Numerous layers of sword phantoms appeared from the void of space around the old man’s body to attack him.
——–in reality, these sword phantoms couldn’t hurt him at all, unable to leave even a scratch on his body, but it had fulfilled the required number of hits!
Lines of glowing text appeared again:
[Current number of hits: 2333]
[By striking an enemy 2333 times, a new realm spirit is heeding your summoning]
[—–the new realm spirit has arrived and is summoning its Phase Realm]
[Attention!]
[Attention!]
[A Phase Realm is overlapping with the main world.
Suddenly——-
The entire world became empty.
The world was dyed in a heavy shade of red.
The orange cat looked around, only to see that the world was now filled to the brim with numerous people.
These people were all wearing a blood-colored robe while devoutly praying on their knees.
“With the power of his sacrifice, may the Blood Sea remain eternal”
Everyone was chanting this same prayer.
Above everyone, the old man was chained up on top of a bloody glowing guillotine.
He was desperately struggling but couldn’t do anything about it at all.
His Realm Force——- the shadow demon, wasn’t present in this Phase Realm.
The orange cat’s expression turned solemn.
The realm spirit summoned this time is really impressive, being able to isolate the other party from their power.
But what exactly was the summoned spirit this time?
The orange cat thought briefly before turning his eyes to the guillotine.
Could it be this entire guillotine?
At this point, the old man seemed to have realized something.
“No… NO!”
He suddenly became panicked and hurriedly shouted: “I surrender, I surrender! Please spare me, I swear to immediately hand over my wicked Holy Relic!”
Ch-cak ch-cak———
What responded to his plea was the guillotine that rapidly descended from above.
Kack!
The old man’s head was cut off.
Everyone cheered and raised their voice in declaration: “The eternal Blood Sea!”
At the very next moment.
The old man’s head as well as his body turned into a mass of blood that flew into the sky and disappeared.
Hoh——–
The entire Phase Realm abruptly disappeared.
The orange cat noticed that he had returned to the main world.
The old man was now truly gone from his sight.
The orange cat felt a bit regretful.
The more expectant, the more disappointed.
The old man only managed to endure up until the guillotine was summoned when he died.
I’ve already lost this chance to see what kind of realm spirit would be summoned after 10,000 strikes.
The shadow monster was continuously shrieking in a sharp voice, moving erratically on the ground and sky trying to find the old man.
A few moments later.
The shadow monster’s movements gradually slowed down and eventually grinded to a halt.
All of its power disappeared.
Its figure crumbled into dust and vanished into the night.
The only thing it left behind was a shadow beast statue the size of a hand.
『 Hurry and destroy it, it’s the origin of all evil! 』
The spirit girl hurriedly called out.
Gu Qing Shan returned to human form and asked in confusion: “This statue should be the evil Holy Relic, which was also a central artifact of this world, so why destroy it?”
『 Because our world system hadn’t been complete for a very long time, and the virtuous Holy Relics were already destroyed. If we don’t destroy this evil Holy Relic, the world would not change, and all wicked existences will continue to persist 』the girl explained.
“Oh, so that was it”
Gu Qing Shan approached the shadow monster statue.
As he stood in front of the shadow monster statue, lines of glowing text rapidly appeared one by one:
[You’ve discovered a central Holy Relic of a world system]
[You can now utilize the key mold to forge it into a new part of the Traveler’s Proof]
[Furthermore, you’ve once received a secret]
[It was the secret protected by the frozen corpse that Shroud had handed over to you]
[You will need the Traveler’s Proof in order to trigger this secret!]
