Chapter 43: 8th Stage Qi Condensation Realm
...…
"!!!" Azmodeus ducked his head as the razor-sharp arrow cut through a few strands of his hair. It took out a few large trees before eventually planting itself in a robust fifty-meter-long tree.
"You know you could really hurt somebody with something like that," he murmured with an annoyed look on his face.
That damn arrow cut up what is used to tie my hair up…
He didn't know who had the gall to attack him, but what he did know was that the person who did this was already considered dead in his eyes.
*Rustle!*
A rustling sounded out as a man with multiple scars on his face and a frame that could be analogous to a bulldozer popped out from behind a bush.
"You have come to the wrong territory, little boy. And for this transgression, we shall take your life and everything you own," the man said with a malicious grin on his rough facial features.
Following this man's voice, a few more figures who looked just as rough appeared from all the nearby shrubbery.
"One… three… ten… twenty-five… thirty-eight… There are really thirty-eight of you guys grouping up on a harmless boy?" Azmodeus asked with a mocking tone.
"You dare mock us, boy?? Are you looking to be tortured before you die?? You know what? Where is Brother Meng? I heard he likes them as young boy's, so let's send him out," the leading man remarked, his hands beckoning a man nearly twice his size.
"I'm here, boss, and this one looks quite tasty, hehe!" The man, called Brother Meng, commented with a disgusting look on his face.
"..."
Azmodeus scrutinized all the various figures in front of him and got a basic understanding of all their strengths.
Twenty in the 4th Stage of Qi Condensation, 10 in the 5th Stage, 5 in the 6th Stage, 2 in the 7th Stage, and 1 in the 8th Stage…
Xing Yi must've had great confidence in my strength if she assumed I could take care of such an assortment of powerful bandits…
Well, not that I can't, but still…
He discarded his train of thought before flipping his piercing gaze over all thirty-eight of his opponents.
"Maybe I should practice my Shadow Cleaver and Mirror Mirage Trait combinations again…"
"Hey, boy! What are you whispering to yourself over there!? Why don't you come over here and serve our brother Meng?? He promises to treat you gently!"
The deplorable voice of the leading bandit echoed out as Azmodeus was taken out of his reverie.
"Very well."
That was all he said before making his way toward the various bandits, who clearly had no good intentions in mind.
"Ha! Finally you understand just what sort of situation you have found yourself in! Now hurry up and-" The leading man was interrupted by a pitch black energy flying toward him from the left side.
"Wha-!?" He exclaimed, attempting to thwart the advance of the dangerous energy leaking out of the incoming blade.
SHING! SHING!
The sound of two blades clashing reverberated as the air around this area of the bog suddenly heated up to insane degrees!
And the result of this intense clash of metals was the bandit leader's blade being sliced into two and his body having the same fate!
*Spurt!*
Two evenly cut pieces of his body slid apart from each other as all of his internal organs and tendons were being separated like a stick of string cheese…
"Boss!!" All of the bandits shouted as their eyes opened as wide as they could.
They weren't even able to comprehend what had happened before their leader was already dead…
However, it looked like they had more than that to worry about as multiple illusory blue child-like figures materialized from thin air with the same black energy tendrils emanating from their blades.
SLASH! SLASH!
Nearly a dozen of these Mirror Mirages sent out hundreds of consecutive sword strikes. This led to thousands upon thousands of black Qi Arcs being unleashed in the middle of the Yellowcreek Bog!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
A countless number of explosions reverberated as everything within a thousand-meter radius was sliced up and split into tens of thousands of different pieces!
The trees, the earth below, and even the bodies of all the bandits!
No matter what it was, everything ended up being cleaved into two and then into two again and again…
Following the aftermath of such destruction, a young boy around twelve years old with a hardened gaze looked around at all the destruction he caused. To say the least, he was satisfied with his progress.
"I am getting better at incorporating all of my Traits into my Mirror Mirage Trait, and if I keep on working at it, then I should be able to add in all my basic attribute-increasing Traits as well."
Azmodeus had been in the Yellow Mellow Sect for the past week, and since then, his strength had made insane leaps!
Furthermore, he predicted it wouldn't be long until he broke through to the Foundation Establishment Realm!
On that note, there was no need to worry about an unstable cultivation foundation, as with all the Sect Quests he completed, a variety of Sect Contributions were allotted to him.
He used all of the Sect Contributions to trade in for cultivation resources, as his cultivation base had already breached past the 8th Stage of Qi Condensation!
However, the reason why he was able to take out all those high-ranking bandits even with his reduced power level Mirror Mirages was because he had started combining a number of his Traits. He was attempting to create something truly extraordinary.
It was thanks to this endeavor that he was able to get his overall combat strength into the 11th Stage of Qi Condensation!
Furthermore, with the increased leveling of his Mirror Mirage Trait, including a rank up into Rank H, he was able to maintain a Mirror Mirage Strength of around the 8th Stage of Qi Condensation!
Nevertheless, there were a few system notifications sounding out inside his head. They informed him of everything he gained from thirty eight Qi Condensation Realm Bandits…
