Chapter 121: Stand Up!
🕑 Added 2024-09-24 07:35:33 +0000 UTCOne month.
Lin Luoluo had spent an entire month cultivating in this area.
Although her cultivation technique was rather basic, with her heightened comprehension abilities, she had pushed the technique to its limits.
She had reached the sixth tier.
After a month of cultivation, Lin Luoluo's strength had ascended to the peak of the sixth tier!
"That should be enough," she muttered, glancing at the Soul-Slaying Sword in her hand as it absorbed the blood of the nearby beasts.
During this month, she had lost count of how many beasts she had slain, ranging from low-tier to high-tier creatures.
In battles against high-tier beasts, she had sustained severe injuries, but the light-based energy from the sword had allowed her to heal, as long as she had enough energy reserves to fuel the healing.
No matter how grave the injuries, as long as she had sufficient energy, the sword could heal her.
"So, she's finally leaving," Ye Fan remarked. "Though staying here isn’t an option anymore—she’s wiped out almost all the beasts in this forest."
This past month had been exhilarating for Ye Fan. Lin Luoluo had relentlessly hunted down powerful beasts in the forest. Although she was only at the sixth tier, she had even managed to slay eighth-tier beasts.
The forest had nearly been emptied of all life, and the energy cores of the slain beasts had all been absorbed by her.
With her hair tied back into a ponytail, Lin Luoluo finally left the forest.
As she exited the woods, she came upon a dirt road that seemed to stretch endlessly into the distance.
Littered along the road were numerous corpses, already decaying and giving off a foul stench.
The dead wore clothes similar to those Lin Luoluo had worn before.
Seeing this, Lin Luoluo's eyes grew cold, and she continued walking forward without hesitation.
…
Earth Dragon Empire, Tianqiu City
"Move faster, you bastard!"
Crack!
A soldier of the Earth Dragon Empire cracked his whip, striking the backs of the slaves nearby.
One of the slaves collapsed to the ground from the force of the whip, trembling before going completely still.
"Useless," the soldier spat, ordering the body to be dragged away.
Tianqiu City was a newly established settlement at the border between the Earth Dragon Empire and the Tianba Empire. Numerous slaves had been brought here to construct the city.
"Who are you?"
A group of guards at the entrance of the city spotted Lin Luoluo approaching with a long sword in hand, and their faces immediately darkened.
While they were captivated by her beauty, they were wary of the sword she carried, which emitted a powerful and sinister aura.
Lin Luoluo ignored their words and continued walking.
"Damn it, you’re looking for death!"
One of the soldiers, enraged by her defiance, drew his bow and shot an arrow directly at her.
Swoosh!
The arrow shot forward at an incredible speed, imbued with energy.
But Lin Luoluo's reaction was just as quick. With a swift swing of her sword, she sliced the arrow in two.
The soldiers’ eyes widened in shock.
How could she be that fast?
Holding her sword, Lin Luoluo continued walking toward them, each step increasing the pressure they felt.
"What are you scared of? She’s just a girl!"
One of the soldiers roared angrily.
For a moment, they had been frozen by the terrifying aura and eerie energy Lin Luoluo exuded.
But with the soldier’s shout, they snapped back to their senses.
Swoosh!
In an instant, Lin Luoluo charged forward with her sword.
"She’s asking for death!"
The soldiers, seeing her take the offensive, readied their weapons and attacked.
But in that moment, they saw only a flash of sword light before their arms were severed!
"Ahhh!"
Screams of agony filled the air as Lin Luoluo continued her assault.
With each swing of the Soul-Slaying Sword, more bodies fell to the ground.
[Killed fifth-tier warrior. Gained 500 Evolution Points.]
[Killed fifth-tier warrior. Gained 500 Evolution Points.]
…
[Absorbed blood essence of fifth-tier warrior. Gained 0.5 Energy Points.]
[Absorbed blood essence of fifth-tier warrior. Gained 0.5 Energy Points.]
…
All the guards in this area were fifth-tier warriors.
"These Earth Dragon people are pretty tall, huh," Ye Fan observed, looking at the bodies strewn around.
The Earth Dragon people were taller than those from the Tianba Empire, and their bodies were more hairy.
Lin Luoluo continued walking forward with the Soul-Slaying Sword in hand.
"Who goes there!"
As she entered the city gate, a large group of warriors rushed toward her—hundreds of them.
Lin Luoluo scanned them with a calm gaze, then raised her sword and slashed through the air.
[Hellfire Soul-Splitting Slash]!
Swoosh!
A terrifying wave of white flames shot forward, engulfing the warriors in front of her.
Boom!
The flames exploded, and the bodies of several warriors were instantly reduced to charred husks.
…
"Kill her!"
"Attack!!!"
A flood of warriors from the Earth Dragon Empire charged at Lin Luoluo.
She remained unfazed as she cut them down one after another, each swing of her sword felling a new opponent.
The blood from their bodies was continuously absorbed by the Soul-Slaying Sword, staining the blade red.
"Is that... Luoluo!?"
Not far away, a middle-aged woman dressed in prison rags recognized her and gasped in shock.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The sword flashed.
The bodies of the warriors were cut in half, one after another.
The Soul-Slaying Sword was impossibly sharp.
Although the warriors wore high-quality armor, it was no more effective than tofu against the sword’s edge.
Despite their numbers, the warriors fell like leaves in a storm as they charged toward Lin Luoluo, only to be slain in moments.
Ye Fan’s mind spun with the constant barrage of system notifications.
However, the points earned from killing fifth-tier warriors weren’t much—just 500 Evolution Points per kill.
It would take 100 of them to gain 50,000 points.
Still, it was better than nothing.
After all, earning 50,000 points had been incredibly difficult in the past.
"She... she killed all of them!?"
The slaves nearby watched in awe, their eyes wide with disbelief.
The whole scene had happened so suddenly, so quickly.
The warriors helping to construct the city walls hadn’t even had time to react!
"Stand up! You are all free."
