#10 - Chapter 10 Sleeves

You are getting closer and closer to the Black Fire Taoist. You are only a hundred steps away from him. You see him bending over and laughing loudly. There is not the slightest ripple in your heart. When you reach the ninetieth step, all the skin on your body is withered.

You begin to use all the blood, flesh, life, and lifespan of your body to nourish the last sword in your human form...

By the eightieth step, the flesh and blood on your body begin to fall off piece by piece.

At forty steps, more than half of the flesh and blood on your body have fallen off. You are now half skeleton and half human.

By the twentieth step, all the flesh and blood on your body have fallen off, and you have become a skeleton. There is no life in your body, only a blue sword in your hand. The sword is wailing, knowing that its master has died.

When the Black Fire Taoist sees this scene, he laughs even more wildly. He laughs so hard that tears come out of his eyes. He feels that he has seen the biggest joke today. First, an old waste at the ninth level of Qi training said he wanted to kill him, but before this old waste could even reach him, he died on his own.

In the weeping blood sky, the Black Fire Taoist bends over and laughs wildly. In the distance, the city walls are full of corpses. People in the city are screaming in terror, and there are also the sinister smiles of the Demonic Path cultivators.

The old man in blue in the sky has turned into a white skeleton. He holds the sword and stops only ten steps away from the Black Fire Taoist, and then begins to fall.

As early as the twentieth step, the old man in blue had turned into a skeleton and died.

Now, after taking another ten steps forward, it is only inertia. Now that this inertia has disappeared, the skeleton begins to fall.

But it is at this moment, perhaps due to the inertia of the skeleton's body before its death, or perhaps due to a obsession that has spanned thirty years.

The fingers of the white skeleton holding the sword move.

At this moment, it seems that the sentence appears in the sky.

"Black Fire, I have come to kill you!"

[This sentence is just an illusion after all. You are already dead, so how can you shout this sentence? There is no sound of you in the sky, but there is the momentary light of that sword. You finally slashed out the last sword in your life.]

[The last sword in life, sacrificed with blood, flesh, life, and lifespan!]

"What!? This is a divine power?"

The Black Fire Taoist's face changes drastically. He sees the last sword that the white skeleton slashes towards him.

This sword actually caused celestial phenomena and produced all kinds of illusions: the white bones of the mortal world, countless tragic scenes of the mortal world, white bones exposed in the wilderness, old women holding children and crying, abandoned ponds and tall trees, everywhere are white bones.

"A sword that causes celestial phenomena can only be done with divine power. Why can an Qi training ninth level cultivator comprehend divine power?"

The Black Fire Taoist's heart is now filled with incomprehension, shock, and intense jealousy.

Why does Heaven favor an old waste who is still at the ninth level of Qi training at the age of sixty, and let this person comprehend divine power?

Boom!

However, a young cultivator in blue with black hair walks out from the皑皑 white bones of the mortal world. He seems to have come across the long river of time and slashes out a sword.

With this sword, all the celestial phenomena in the world disappear, and only a white sword light slashes towards the Black Fire Taoist.

This sword makes the Black Fire Taoist, a Foundation Establishment seventh level cultivator and a Core Formation seed, lose some color in his face.

After this sword, the Black Fire Taoist's wild laughter resounds in the sky.

"I thought it was so powerful, but it only cut off a piece of my sleeve!" The Black Fire Taoist blocks the sword. He stands with his hands behind his back, showing the demeanor of an expert. Only half a black sleeve floats in the sky.

"If he were at the first level of Foundation Establishment, what would be cut off would be your arm. If he were at the fifth level of Foundation Establishment, what would be cut off would be half of your body."

"If he were in the same realm as you, what would be cut off would be your head."

"It's a pity that this talented person who comprehended divine power didn't even have time to ascend to Foundation Establishment and unleash the brilliance of divine power before dying today."

A voice with regret and admiration comes from the sky, and then a red-robed middle-aged man appears next to the Black Fire Taoist.

"You...!" Hearing such demeaning words, the Black Fire Taoist did not dare to refute, because this red-robed middle-aged man is a Core Formation True Lord of the Demonic Path, the Red Robe Taoist.

The Black Fire Taoist is secretly annoyed. He thinks to himself, "Humph! It's a pity, this old waste will never reach the seventh level of Foundation Establishment in his life. So what if he comprehends divine power?"

Of course, at this moment, the Black Tiger Taoist also has intense jealousy in his heart. Although he said it easily just now, only a piece of sleeve was cut off.

But this means that this sword broke through his protective true energy and touched his body.

This is a sword slashed out by a Qi training ninth level cultivator!

A sword slashed out by a Qi training ninth level cultivator can actually break through his protective true energy. This is already quite terrifying.

Back then, when Black Fire reached the tenth level of Qi training, facing the seventh level of Foundation Establishment, let alone breaking through the protective true energy or cutting off a piece of sleeve, a single glance could have scared him to death.

He didn't even have the courage to draw his sword.

How could he not be jealous?

Divine power, this heaven-defying means of increasing combat power, was actually comprehended by an old waste at the ninth level of Qi training.

He feels that it is a waste of natural resources.

[You slashed out the last sword in your life. But unfortunately, the difference in strength between you and Black Fire is too great. Even if you condense the flesh and lifespan of your whole body, this sword will only barely break through the protective true energy of Black Fire True Person and cut off a piece of his sleeve.]

[In the year 360 of the Taixu Era, Jianqiu City fell, millions of people perished, and you died in this Demonic Path siege.]

[Your reputation spread somewhat after this war. The Red Robe Taoist praised this sword of yours very much afterwards. So, through his mouth, many people learned about the fall of Jianqiu City that day.]

[An old man at the ninth level of Qi training slashed out an extremely talented sword that broke through the protective true energy of a Core Formation seed.]

[Some Demonic Path cultivators are glad, saying that this kind of person with heaven-defying combat power who comprehended divine power was fortunate to have died before breaking through to Foundation Establishment. People who comprehend divine power have invincible combat power in the same realm, and their growth is unimaginable. Some Righteous Path people also regret...]

[This simulation is over. You died in the year 360 of the Taixu Era with the cultivation of the ninth level of Qi training.]

"The simulation is over..." Lin Changqing sighed. The simulated text and images were too realistic. He also saw the scenes after Jianqiu City fell, and he couldn't bear to look at them directly.

[Settlement of simulation rewards: Ninth level of Qi training.]

As these words appeared on the panel, a inexplicable force poured into Lin Changqing's body from the void.

In an instant, Lin Changqing's cultivation broke through the ninth level of Qi training, and it was the peak of the ninth level of Qi training.

Not only that, but the thirty years of combat experience in slaying demons in this simulation were all integrated into Lin Changqing's body at this moment.

He seemed to have really fought with the Demonic Path cultivators for thirty years in another time and space.

Of course, the most important thing is the divine power he comprehended.

At this moment, a white bone rune appeared in Lin Changqing's dantian.

As long as he gently activates this rune, he can use this sword-style divine power, White Bone.

It can be said that this simulation was an all-round harvest. His cultivation has reached the peak of the ninth level of Qi training.

When this simulation started, he was only at the fourth level of Qi training, which is equivalent to directly crossing five small realms.

In the simulated life, it took him thirty years to go from the fourth level of Qi training to the ninth level of Qi training.

But in real life, he only spent a dozen minutes in that simulation just now.
