Chapter 1632 - Dark Sword



Chapter 1632: Dark Sword

Both the monsters fully unleashed their auras as soon as they stepped out of the Virtual Eyes, targeting Buried Heaven and Zhan Guang respectively.

Buried Heaven and Zhan Guang’s nerves were also were taut. Both could clearly sense that the two monsters in front of them were no weaker in terms of ability.

Right as both parties were on the verge of beginning a massive battle, the man in white suddenly turned his head to look at his two ‘partners’.

A black battle sword suddenly appeared in his hand, and he swung out with it immediately.

A circle of faint black fog seemed to spread through the air, piercing straight through the bodies of the two Voids.

An instant later, both Voids were sliced in two. Immediately after that, their bisected bodies burst apart on the spot.

Lin Huang, Buried Heaven, and Zhan Guang were stunned to see him attack.

Lin Huang raised his brows. He could see that the man in white’s Sword Dao attainment was higher than his own. This fellow must have consolidated a Sword seal and become a Lord.

After their initial shock, Buried Heaven and Zhan Guang felt goosebumps rising on their skin.

The two monsters as powerful as themselves had been easily disposed of by the man in white. Not only that, he had killed both of them instantly with just one slash. This meant that the man in white possessed the fearsome ability to kill them both in one attack as well.

“I don’t like being interrupted in a fight.” The man in white calmly slid his sword back into its scabbard, as if what he had just done was something not worth mentioning.

These words made Buried Heaven and Zhan Guang tense up.

The man in white seemed to guess their thoughts. He smirked lightly. “Don’t worry, I have no interest in the two of you. However, if this fellow loses, after I kill him, I don’t mind taking both of you as well so you can be his escorts.”

Buried Heaven and Zhan Guang were bereft of speech when they heard this.

The two of them were overlord-rank personages in the God Territory. They had never expected to be reduced to someone else’s escorts once they arrived here. However, after witnessing the man in white’s display of ability, they did not dare to refute his words. After all, he was a terrifying entity who could kill both of them immediately.

Lin Huang, on the other hand, did not seem to be shocked by the man in white’s ability at all.

“I have another question.” Lin Huang gestured to the spot where the two Voids had been killed. Their corpse remains had vanished completely. “Do Voids die after they’re killed? Or do they return to the virtual realm?”

The man in white smiled when he heard Lin Huang’s question. “Voids can only be expelled from the material realm. They can’t be killed.”

“Then after a person undergoing unification kills a raptor, what’s the ‘true spirit’ that gets left behind?”

“That’s the price to pay for accepting a Dao plundering contract,” the man in white paused, then elaborated more in detail, “Under normal circumstances, Voids must pay a price to enter the material realm. To plunder a unification Dao seal, they must sign a Dao plundering contract. The minute the plundering fails, they’ll be stripped of a portion of their Origin Energy. It’s rather appropriate that you call it ‘true spirit’.

“This is what’s known as Heavenly Dao balance. When there’s a catastrophe, there will be good fortune also. Every gain has its price.

“Just like how I’m answering your questions and helping all of you expel those two Voids—I’m actually paying a price first.

“Although on the surface it seems as if it cost nothing for me to come to the material realm this time, I know that if I kill all of you without paying something, there’ll be a bigger price for me to pay later.”

Lin Huang was somewhat speechless after hearing what the man in white had to say. Naturally, he was aware of the ‘gain some, lose some’ theory. However, the man in white seemed to wholeheartedly regard it as an absolute law by which things worked.

All along, Lin Huang had been curious why the man in white was so easy to talk to and why he answered almost everything Lin Huang asked. It turned out that the other party had drawn up this set of peculiar rules that governed his behavior.

“In that case, what if I kill you instead?” Lin Huang asked mockingly, “Wouldn’t you have paid that price in vain then?”

“If that’s the case, I’d be even happier.” The man in white smiled. “You would expel me back to the virtual realm so I wouldn’t gain anything this time. In that case, I’d definitely be able to gain even more at some point in the future.”

Lin Huang was speechless when he heard the man in white’s perfect circular logic.

“Do you have any more questions? If not, let’s begin as soon as possible. After all, the time I have here is limited.” The man in white’s tone remained amiable; he did not display any trace of enmity at all toward Lin Huang.

“One last question.” Lin Huang thought about it and felt he had asked almost everything necessary. If he asked any further about the virtual realm’s secrets, the man probably would not answer him either. “How do I address you?”

“You mean my name?” The man in white did not answer the question right away. Instead, he lifted his head to look at the ceiling of the ancient palace as if he were trying to recall something. “I don’t remember anymore…

“Names have no meaning in the virtual realm. We simply give ourselves a codename.

“My codename is—Dark Sword.”

Lin Huang looked at the black sword that the man in white held. He guessed that this black sword must be the source of his codename.

“Alright, I have no more questions.” An inky-black, narrow-bladed sword coalesced in Lin Huang’s hand as soon as he finished speaking.

“An excellent sword!” Dark Sword could not help complimenting Lin Huang when he saw the God Weapon in Lin Huang’s hand.

“Yours isn’t too shabby either.” Lin Huang could tell that Dark Sword’s blade was a Dao Weapon also.

Almost at the same time that Lin Huang finished speaking, both their figures vanished immediately on the spot.

Buried Heaven and Zhan Guang could only catch two afterimages, even after boosting their vision to its limit.

Their Divine Telekinesis was able to capture the movement trajectories of the two figures, but their speed had clearly far exceeded the speed of Buried Heaven and Zhan Guang’s reactions.

The two figures clashed immediately.

Two black swords—one narrow and long, the other broad and thick—unleashed Divine Power full force once they clashed together.

At the moment of impact between both parties’ Divine Power, Odyl began to spread.

It was like two waves rippling together, causing mutual interference.

Violent winds sprang up endlessly from all four directions.

Lin Huang had yet to consolidate a Dao seal, but he had a complete Sword seal within him.

This Sword seal was what the Sword Scripture from before had transformed into.

In the past, Lin Huang could not activate the Odylic Force within it.

However, as his God’s soul’s strength elevated to lord-level, he realized that he could borrow the use of the Odylic Force within the Sword seal.

At the level of his previous battles, though, he had been able to resolve things easily without resorting to the use of Odyl.

Now that he was facing a strong enemy like Dark Sword, he could no longer conceal his strength.

He could clearly sense that if he continued to do so, he might end up being killed by his opponent.

Buried Heaven was utterly shocked when he saw Lin Huang using Odyl.

He knew that Lin Huang was only heavenly god-level and had not undergone unification yet.

Theoretically speaking, one could not have a Dao seal within them without undergoing unification, which meant that it was impossible to spawn Odylic Force. However, Lin Huang was now using Odylic Force in front of Buried Heaven’s very eyes.

Zhan Guang did not know any of this. Since witnessing Lin Huang’s attack, he had thought all along that Lin Huang was a Lord, just like him. He thought Lin Huang was merely feigning heavenly god-level combat strength.

However, Lin Huang was the only one who knew that he was only borrowing the use of Odylic Force. Not only that, due to the limitations of his physical strength, he could not sustain this borrowed usage for very long. After all, the hardiness of his physical body was merely near lord-level right now—it was still not at lord-level yet.

In this battle, he had to kill his opponent as quickly as possible! The longer things dragged on, the worse it would be for him.
