Chapter 95: S-Rank! Soul Cleaver!
🕑 Added 2024-09-18 05:52:59 +0000 UTC"Anyone else want to come at me?"
After slaughtering the martial artists, Ren Xing’s eyes scanned the area below. The remaining survivors avoided his gaze, too terrified to meet his eyes.
Ren Xing’s entire body radiated an eerie and terrifying aura. His sword, the Yao Zhan, emanated a potent, malevolent energy.
"Hmph, a bunch of worthless cowards," Ren Xing sneered coldly.
Without hesitation, he raised the Yao Zhan Sword and swung it toward a massive halberd, poised to destroy it.
The Yao Zhan Sword, which had absorbed vast amounts of blood, was now sharper than ever. As Ren Xing poured all his source energy into the blade, dark energy surged out, intensifying the sword's power.
CLANG!
With a resounding crash, the halberd shattered under the force of Ren Xing’s swing.
[Absorbed special energy, gained 8947 evolution points.]
Nearly 9000 evolution points!
Though less than before, Ren Xing noticed that his evolution points had now accumulated to around ninety thousand!
He was on the verge of evolving!
"Hurry up, old man!" Ye Fan shouted, barely able to contain his excitement.
Evolution! It was so close!
At this moment, Ren Xing felt the Yao Zhan Sword in his hand begin to tremble.
"Are you excited too, Yao Zhan?" he chuckled. "Very well, I’ll destroy every weapon here!"
Ren Xing let out a triumphant laugh and leapt toward another statue.
“Stop right there!” one of the martial artists below couldn’t stand it anymore.
Finally, several of them launched an attack on Ren Xing. After all, the weapons he was destroying were top-tier A-grade treasures!
“Fools!” Ren Xing growled, swinging the Yao Zhan Sword.
Whoosh!
[Netherflame Soul Cleaver]!
A wave of terrifying white fire erupted, slicing through the air. Several fifth-tier martial artists were instantly cut in half.
Ren Xing continued his rampage, his Yao Zhan Sword unleashing a relentless barrage of Netherflame Soul Cleaver strikes.
The white flames were unstoppable, leaving a trail of dead bodies in their wake. One after another, martial artists fell.
Ye Fan, hidden within the sword, received a constant stream of system notifications, gaining evolution points with every kill.
"Hmph, you’re just insects!" Ren Xing spat, his voice full of disdain.
With the immediate threat eliminated, Ren Xing jumped onto another statue and eyed the massive spear it held.
“This one’s next!” Ren Xing roared, smashing the spear with a single blow.
[Absorbed special energy, gained 11,120 evolution points.]
[Host has accumulated sufficient evolution points. Begin evolution?]
"Yes!" Ye Fan’s voice trembled with excitement.
It was enough! The evolution points had reached the required amount!
Finally, he would evolve into an S-rank weapon!
S-rank... a weapon fit for the most powerful of warriors. The thought alone made Ye Fan tremble with anticipation.
Suddenly, the entire area began to shake violently.
“What’s happening?” Ren Xing frowned.
He could feel the Yao Zhan Sword vibrating intensely in his hand. As the sword’s trembling grew stronger, the surrounding ground quaked along with it.
Crackle!
Electric sparks danced along the blade of the Yao Zhan Sword. The sharp jolt of electricity made Ren Xing instinctively let go, and the sword fell to the ground, burying itself into the earth.
The sword pulsed with more and more lightning as it lay embedded in the floor.
Nearby stone statues crumbled and fell from the violent tremors.
Reacting quickly, Ren Xing leaped aside to avoid being crushed.
BOOM!
A massive explosion rocked the chamber, and the ceiling overhead cracked open, revealing the sky above. A giant bolt of lightning descended from the heavens, striking the Yao Zhan Sword with devastating force.
The entire space shook wildly under the impact.
“What... what’s going on?” Ren Xing stepped back, alarmed by the terrifying display of power.
The lightning was so intense that even Ren Xing didn’t dare approach the sword.
“Is this divine retribution?” Ren Xing muttered in disbelief.
Could the cursed sword be facing divine punishment for all the lives it had taken?
“No... it feels more like the sword is transforming,” Ren Xing realized, his breath growing heavier as he watched.
His eyes locked on the Yao Zhan Sword, which continued to tremble violently as more bolts of lightning crashed down from the sky.
BOOM! BOOM!
Thunder roared as the lightning relentlessly pounded the sword.
“I’m a sword... I don’t feel pain... I have no emotions...” Ye Fan’s voice hummed inside the blade, singing a strange tune to himself.
The outer layer of the sword began to crack, with chunks of the blade’s surface flaking off. Slowly, the entire sword started to change before Ren Xing’s eyes.
The transformation was similar to what had happened before, but this time, the lightning strikes were far more powerful, each bolt like a massive pillar of energy.
As the sword’s outer shell broke away, the blade underneath began to shine with a brilliant golden light.
Finally, the trembling stopped, and the lightning ceased. The shaking ground stilled, and the sky grew quiet.
"A... a golden light!" Ren Xing gasped, trembling with excitement.
Did this mean... the sword had evolved into an S-rank weapon?
Ren Xing’s heart pounded with exhilaration as he thought of the power he now held in his hands.
