Reincarnation of the Human Swordsman
61
I took a deep breath, then jumped out. There is a view of the dense forest around, indicating that this place is still in the forest, not a strange dimension.
“Congratulations, by completing the three stages of Kuliafikasi As Human Beings, Luo Xiao, you are declared to pass!” said the strange voice that once again echoed in my ear.
“Have passed? Just like that?” For a moment, I tilted my head. “I thought it would be more than this ..., but good.”
“As a gift, you will be blessed by the Lord of Sacred Stone Mountain,” continued the strange sound. “Please absorb and practice that blessing in this Sacred Rock Mountain.”
In just a few seconds, I could feel a warm aura enveloping my entire body. Is this the blessing in question? I could sense that this aura was not an ordinary aura, but rather something that contained so much Chi.
After that, without wasting much time I went straight into the forest, hiding under the roots of the big tree. I have to cultivate immediately, making use of this seemingly great blessing. However, there was certainly not too much hope in my heart about its efficacy.
...*** ...
It may have been a few months since I began to cultivate and train in this Sacred Rock Mountain. I must admit that my strength increased quite rapidly, perhaps because of the blessings of that time? Oh, never mind, I don't care too much either.
I stepped forward, walking slowly down the path while looking around. During the day, this place does not look scary. Even at night that is so.
“With my current strength,” my murmur, slowly, “ I will pulverize Lion Stone or whatever it is if you dare to bother me again!”
Even though I had been walking for about a quarter of a day, I still had not found any signs of being attacked. It seemed like the ferocious beasts here knew the limits of their abilities. Ahaha! Fear me!
Finally, after a half-day trip, I managed to get out of the Sacred Rock Mountain. However, it was an unpleasant experience when I entered the city wearing only body coverings made of animal skin. I mean, it feels so embarrassing to be seen as weird by the gods on the streets.
Trying to ignore all that, I slowly entered a narrow alley. This place is hardly anyone, but I'm sure that soon some god damn thing will come.
“It turns out faster than I thought,” I said welcoming the five gods with shabby clothes and wood in their hands.
“It was unexpected that you managed to survive that mountain!” the word of the god in the middle. “It was quite surprising that you survived, but now you want to die in our hands instead?”
“Hahaha! His brain must have been damaged,” continued another god.
“It's true.”
“He may be very traumatized and not want to live again!”
“You heard that?” the god in the middle, again.
I smiled faintly, lowering my head for a moment. “You are the ones who have acted insolently in the presence of a King!”
“Ha—”
In one move, I darted and kicked the head of the god standing in the middle. I am now more than able to make the skull of this arrogant god broken!
“Give all your possessions if you don't want to die ..” I said as I moved a few steps back.
“Bjakk!” The other four gods immediately attacked me simultaneously. They couldn't accept seeing their leader humiliated. However ….
“I gave you a chance, but instead chose death.”
This god body trembled, it was no longer as arrogant as before. It seemed like he had just understood that he had just awakened a deadly monster.
“Am .. forgive me!” He bowed, begging me for forgiveness. “I'll give you everything I have! Forgive me ...”
If I kill or forgive this god, I will have no gain or loss. After all, not finishing everything to the root is not my nature!
“I've given you a chance ..”
I'm not a nice person or naive. If I had decided, I would have done it to the end.
A while later, I let out a long sigh, exhaling it slowly. Without saying much, I took all the valuables they had. However, these poor gods only had a certain amount of money, enough for lunch only.
In order not to lose too much, I took the pants of one of them, then put them on. I can't take their clothes, because they're destroyed like their bodies. Ah .. I think like this was enough. Time to get lunch!
As if nothing had happened, I walked out of this deserted alley. I slowly walked to a more crowded place, glancing around, looking for a place to eat that did not look luxurious.
“Me!” I muttered as I walked into a simple restaurant.
The place I visited was very crowded, even when I entered, only one empty seat remained. I ordered some food and sat in the only empty chair, looking at the gods around. How should I say it, but .. they look quite bar-bar as beings who are one level above humans.
A moment of noticing, suddenly my gaze shifted to a long-haired woman. He had a sword slung neatly to his left. Moreover, her white clothes could somehow add to her beauty and elegance value in my eyes.
“You fell in love with her?”
“Hm ...” I answered briefly. “Jian Lang?!” I immediately gasped when I saw my old friend sitting right in front of me.
“You just woke up?” Jian Lang looked a little laugh at my reaction.
“You're like a ghost,” I complained. “If you've been there since, at least call me normally instead of surprising me.”
“Hahaha. Sorry, sorry, I just don't feel like bothering you looking at that woman over there.”
“Whispering! I just saw her prettier than any other woman.”
“Is that?” This time Jiang Lang smiled faintly while tilting his head. I know what he wants to say!
“You turned out to be more annoying than I imagined!”
“Thank you ...”
“That's not a compliment!” I exhaled a deep breath, already unwilling to discuss this topic anymore. “However, I did not expect that you would eat in a place like this, Jian Lang.”
“At first I didn't want to either, but after seeing someone lure some gods to a quiet place, I changed my mind.”
Goddamnit! He was too lucky to realize that I was back! Ah never mind, even if he knew, he wouldn't have leaked that incident to anyone, would he? I think I'll be safe.
