Chapter 714
The only thing that worries him is the number of Saints and peak Xiantian Emperor Realm is quite great compared to the entire force of this world.
If he fights with the avatar, he wouldn’t be able to split his attention even for a bit since it would definitely spell doom to him and his group.
His scarabs would also be busy since they are the main weapon against the avatar of the chaos commander in the chaos world.
He could only hope Sans and the others would give him a surprise, if their strength is comparable to Saints then he won’t need to worry that much.
Seeing that nobody was paying attention he decided to get some payback towards the suffering that his fellow residents of this world have suffered, besides this was his plan all along to increase his experience as an assassin.
With the pressure that is now pressing on his soul, he would definitely exert all of his best because one wrong step might lead his life to an end.
.....
He silently approaches one of the peak Xiantian Emperor elite and release a tiny bit of Toxic’s poison that was created to deal with beings from the chaos world, the poison is still on its infancy stage but he was only using it to weaken his target for a bit not outright kill them immediately.
He had targeted this specific chaos knight because he had seen that he was the person that was grinding the bones turning them into powder and threw them towards the crystal ball.
This knight would also go to locations that doesn’t have that much knights in the area to cultivate the chaos energy he receives from the crystal.
There are numerous chaos beasts in the area but Shadowslash is confident that wouldn’t be discovered by them, the only ones he worried about are the other peak Xiantian Emperor elites and the saints.
The chaos knights then walks to his usual spot and started cultivating, little did he know that once he sat down, he was quickly put into an illusion and his energy was slowly being absorbed by Shadowslash and the scarabs.
The knight would never escape his illusion because of how great the difference the strength of their spiritual sense was, he then brought out his sword and slowly pierced the knight on his heart.
All of this happened in a very smooth manner, he then continue to absorb the qi of the knight, when he was finally confident that the knight would no longer pose a threat, he threw him into the refining jar where newborn scarabs were put to undergo a cruel refining process.
The knight would of course woke up after experiencing the bites of countless scarabs running throughout his body, he started struggling but it was futile.
His powers have already been drained before he was thrown in this place, immediately crunching noise could be heard ringing inside the refinement pot.
Shadowslash transform into an exact copy of the knight that he had just killed and walks towards the spot near the crystal ball, he offers a prayer to the deceased owner of the bones and started crushing them into powders and throwing them into the crystal ball.
He silently started absorbing the power that was being emitted from the ball, he knew that this would definitely slow the progress of the chaos world.
This routine continue for two weeks before finally ending when he realised that the knights were becoming more and more suspicious, he had only killed 11 peak Xiantian Emperor elites during his stay.
He can’t kill more because he won’t be able to act in incognito mode if he really started killing just anyone, the additional ten peak Xiantian Emperor elites were replaced by his clones and because of their ability to act nobody managed to recognize what they really are.
The knights were alarmed not because they felt something was happening to their members but because of the large amount of chaos Qi stolen from the crystal orb, if it weren’t for the fact that their commander have told them something was wrong they wouldn’t discover it.
He wanted to plant some bombs before he left but all of the energy on the surrounding were chaos Qi, even if he makes them into bombs it wouldn’t affect the knights and beasts that much.
Once he was finally assured that he was far enough, he then orders his clones to go on a rampage, while he was swimming away he felt tiny vibration and instantly knew that his clones were now going on a rampage.
He increases his speed and did not look for trouble, he ignores the passing chaos beasts and he even did not absorb the surrounding chaos Qi, he knew that he must get away since the chaos knights aren’t stupid to not realised that he had left.
Just like what he had predicted, the chaos knights killed his clones and finally realised that he had actually arrive at this location and one of them quickly grabs the crystal orb and scans each and every one of them.
After they were certain that there are no longer any impostor amongst them, they quickly went out and starts to scan all the beasts that they have found.
They knew that there is little to no chance that Shadowslash have stayed but they still decided to check the chaos beasts, they don’t want the same thing to happen once again.
Shadowslash was rapidly swimming back to Defender Island without any rest, his speed is extremely fast and even seems to be teleporting because of how fast he was.
After taming Leviathan and obtaining a piece of knowledge from him, his speed underwater is actually comparable to the speed of his fox form which is very terrifying, but unlike his fox form, to increase his speed to its outmost peak he needed to expend Mana and spirit Qi.
While he was swimming he started sorting out the items he had stole from the chaos knights and couldn’t help but be impressed just how rich they were, just as he was looking through them, he saw an item that froze him of shock, because of his abrupt stop the surrounding sea started to become chaotic.
He took out the item and he started looking at it again and again, he even rubs his eyes to see if he was hallucinating or not but no matter what he do the item did not disappear.
He then started laughing out loud after being certain that he wasn’t hallucinating, he knew that he had obtain a jackpot, the item he was now holding on his hand was a moon stone, an artificial artifact that was created from a large piece of a moon.
As long as he absorb enough lunar yin Qi, he might be able to create an artificial moon inside his personal independent realm, he then absorb the stone into his dantian and felt a large amount of lunar yin Qi flooding on his veins and dantian.
He felt invigorated because of it, the rich yang Qi he has inside his body started to blend with the yin Qi creating an harmonious balance inside his body, he then use the excess yin Qi and yang Qi to nurture chaos and Harmony.
He resume his journey but this time he slows down because he was busy refining the energy on his body to finally solidify his personal independent realm, as long as he fill his secret realm with natural treasures, he would be able to increase his strength rapidly.
Back to Defender Island, the entire island have changed, the seedlings have become mature trees and other kinds of plants, it was extremely shocking for the residents.
The person responsible for this change was Old man emerald, he was busy nurturing every plant in the area except for Shadowslash’s garden, on the other hand, LS have been subduing one marine beast after another and he only choose those on the Xiantian Realm and above.
Fire Demon Dragon King needs more time to return since he would be bringing the warriors from Beast Continent, the residents on Defender Island felt very grateful to the beastmen because of this.
But many of them knew that they wouldn’t last long because of the incoming war, they train and cultivate nonstop, even though all the food they ate were only fish they did not get sick of eating it, many of them would even dare to eat dirt if it meant that they would be able to increase their strength.
All of those that were already determined to die on the battlefield no longer has any potential to cultivate in the future because of their broken foundation.
