Chapter 320: Guardian Spirit
Shi Tu's reaction speed steadily improved with a rocket speed.
As soon as the beast could not injure Shi Tu anymore, Shi Tu moved towards the center of the battlefield.
Shi Tu grabbed the Evil Blood War Sword and his eyes seemed to change slightly as they became just like the eyes of monsters rather than humans. A mysterious shadow appeared behind Shi Tu and was getting bigger and bigger.
The Imperial Shadow Sword Art is not a Shen level art because it was created by Judge Yang Meng who was overwhelmed by his arrogance, he had never thought that he had to do everything in his full power as create an indomitable technique and thought that his simplest effort was enough to outdo everyone else.
All techniques are divided into levels namely Zhan, Huan which represent low-level techniques, then there are Di and Tian which represent middle-level techniques, and finally, Xian and Shen which represent high-level techniques. Each level is further divided into low, medium, high. If the Imperial Shadow Sword Art was listed then it was nothing more than a low-level Tian level technique but the reason why it was so popular and called the best sword technique for the assassination was that Judge Yang Meng used it.
Once upon a time, a rumor spread in the universe that the reason for Yang Meng's strength was his indomitable Shadow Imperial Sword Art and Shadow Star Steps and that he had found them in ancient ruins and had not invented them himself, because Yang Meng was the youngest known Heavenly Title at thirty years old.
Many assassins around the world wanted to acquire that sword art and step techniques and they wanted to instill dissatisfaction in the Shadow Army because their master monopolizes the best things for himself and does not share them. Ordinary Assassins might not dare to express their dissatisfaction but the senior executives of the Shadow Army should be greedy for being tempted by the chance of becoming as strong as Yang Meng.
The proud Yang Meng mocked them and spread the Shadow Imperial Sword Art and Shadow Star Steps to people and challenged everyone to use them with the same prowess but no one was able to extract their maximum potential because they did not understand the essence of assassination.
Assassination is not killing the target, even at the expense of the assassin's life. It is not killing with a single strike or stealth, or everything combined.
True assassination is killing the target under any circumstances and no matter how vast the difference in strength, even in front of someone who is a hundred times faster, in front of someone who is a hundred times stronger, in front of someone who cannot see or hear him or know his whereabouts. The real assassin has a way to assassinate the target, no matter the circumstances against him and no matter how strong the target's defenses are.
In the end and mysteriously, the world forgot these two arts and they became lost arts that disappeared in the river of history.
Shi Tu seemed to have completely disappeared and merged into the black mist and could no longer be seen. But inexplicably, the faint shadow behind Shi Tu flew into the sky and a black dragon's shadow appeared in the pitch-darkness. The dragon was large enough to go around the entire arena and look at it from above with disdain, it seemed like everything was not worth mentioning in this dragon's eyes.
The dragon's hand had three claws, one claw shone in blue while another claw shone in gold and the third claw shone in black and that claw fell straight towards the ground.
"Imperial Shadow Sword Art, Fourth Style, Shadow Dragon Claw"
Immediately, the black mist dissipated and a corpse slashed in half could be seen but the corpse looked a bit strange as it looked a bit swollen and distorted as if this beast was on the verge of a rampage.
Shi Tu didn't bother checking whether it was a Shadow Ghost or a Shadow Ghost, either way, that was unimportant.
Without caring about the treasures scattered around him, Shi Tu walked towards the next door.
....................
"Damn, what kind of monster is this?"
Somewhere within the Earth and Heaven Plunder Cave, a little boy sat in front of many broadcast arrays scattered everywhere within the Earth and Heaven Plunder Cave.
This little kid is the Guardian Spirit inside the Earth and Heaven Plunder Cave. Although he is not strong himself, but he can control everything within the Earth and Heaven Plunder Cave and is the ultimate power.
Normally, the Earth and Heaven Plunder Cave operated completely automatically without any outside interference. This Guardian Spirit will only appear in one case, which is the inability of the automated system to determine the level of the prey.
In the past when Xie Li entered, the Guardian Spirit had not been awakened simply because Xie Li is a fifth step cultivator and of course the cave couldn't handle this level of strength and any resistance was just a futile struggle and it was stupid to send anything to try to stop him so Xie Li had no trouble going to the treasury. The only thing that could be done in such a situation was to send a distress call to the Thieves Emperor but he was unfortunately dead.
The little kid looked at the screens angrily and cursed, "Who? Who dares to wake this father from his slee . cultivation?"
The anger in the kid's eyes flared up to the point of madness and he stared at the screens in search of the criminal who had woken him from his sleep.
For a Guardian Spirit, waking him from sleep was no different from killing him and killing his nineteen generations of ancestors. A major crime is punishable by death.
Altogether, there were thirty-three different levels and paths within the Earth and Heaven Plunder Cave, it seemed that the people from the three academies and the five alliances had already lost half as many and had not even come a tenth of the distance.
"Putting ants in the first ten levels, where is that bastard?"
The kid immediately ignored most of the people because they do not deserve to be more than cannon fodder in his eyes and they are only there to feed the cave.
The little kid looked toward another screen where Sun Chiwei and Feng Xiaoxiao were both presents and seemed to be in dire straits and filled with superficial wounds, but they advanced steadily.
"The hell, with all the treasures they've seen, how come they're not greedy yet? Instead of relying on themselves why don't they use the pills I threw at them? just used it and die quickly."
Despite his displeasure, the kid immediately ignored them because they are only on the nineteenth difficulty level but they are in dire straits which are far from alerting him.
On another screen, Arcana nobly walked among a legion of monsters as many arrows appeared around it, and the monsters aimed at them and completely destroyed them.
"Damn, this thirtieth difficulty, what the hell is she doing there? Is there something wrong with the system? With her abilities, she should be a level thirty-three."
On another screen, the scene was not much different as Die Yingming destroyed everyone standing in front of him with his spear without much trouble.
"Damn it, again? The hell this is the thirty-second difficulty."
On another screen, Mingzhi Mei was not quite as good as Die Yingming and Arcana but she was much better than Sun Chiwei and Feng Xiaoxiao as she was barely injured as she climbed a dangerous slope.
The kid directly ignored her and didn't even give her a look.
"Those two, why don't they swallow the bait? It's as if they already know it's a trap. They don't even look at the treasures unlike the two who entered at the beginning where they collected treasures as much as they could..but."
The little boy looked at the screen with Shi Tu and said, "Here is, this is the damned criminal who woke me up. But..what's up with this guy? How dare he use a Guardian Gu Insect blood lake to understand the laws? Not only that he is now training his reflexes? That's too much."
Once Shi Tu finished his battle, the little boy was completely dumbfounded at what was happening.
"Damn, isn't this the Imperial Shadow Sword Art? How can he open the Darkness Eyes and merge with the shadow without moving?"
"F**k, how is this possible, even if he opens the Darkness Eyes, how can he locate and kill it with one blow? What's wrong with this claw? Three elements at once? Doesn't that mean that regardless of whether it's Shadow Ghost or Shadow Ghoul, he will die even before he Have a chance to go rampage?"
The little kid felt that his database was useless. Even the creator of these arts, Judge Yang Meng wasn't able to use them with such proficiency, at least no one had forced him to do so before but he saw this in front of him now.
Moments later, the little kid showed icy looks and looked at Shi Tu across the screen.
"He doesn't even look at treasures, either he doesn't need them or he knows that they are just a trap. Either way, it would be a waste of time to continue testing him. His sword alone is a treasure like no other, though outwardly it looks just a mortal treasure, but it's probably the kind that It evolves with the development of its owner, and the knowledge in his mind and most likely his soul and blood are also rare treasures, this is enough to cover the losses."
"Kekeke, this is the first time I've had to use it and luckily there are two more people with him, Kekeke."
