Chapter 119 - Fighting The Disciple Of The Heavenly Ghost Monarch (3)

As soon as the blades produced those colors of light, Xiao Lin immediately slashed out with them at the Ghostly Sword Deserter.

Slash!

Slash!...

The instant that he slashed out with them at the Ghostly Sword Deserter, two massive, multi-colored streams of violent energy which radiated the shocking power to destroy all things in every directions erupted from the blades, they instantly condensed into mighty blades that shot out at great speeds toward the Ghostly Sword Deserter.

Then because of the tremendous speeds that the blades condensed from different internal energies moved at, they arrived before the Ghostly Sword Deserter in many times lesser than the blink of an eye and tried to cleave him apart into two.

However, before they could hit him, the Ghostly Sword Deserter who had been alarmed by the power beginning to ripple off from the blades in all directions as Xiao Lin pumped energy into them, had quickly produced a treasure which he tried to use to protect himself from the immense, blade-shaped attacks.

BANG!

BANG!

The instant the blades struck the defensive artifact that the Ghostly Blade Deserter quickly produced from his spatial ring and placed in front of him, loud bang sounds immediately rang out with waves of power which could turn massive rocks into powders, furiously rushing out from their points of collision with the shield and into the distance in all directions.

While the Ghostly Sword Deserter who was at the receiving end of the attack, was abruptly knocked flying into the distance where he crashed through many walls before landing at some place that was far away from his previous position.

Immediately he landed there, Xiao Lin quickly rushed out from where he stood to the place where the sword and bow that the Ghostly Sword Deserter wielded fell off to and delightedly picked it up.

Then he dashed away from there to another place, surprisingly leaving the Ghostly Sword Deserter behind like he had no intention of fighting him.

And when he got to another place that was far away from that place that he abruptly left, he stowed the weapons of the Ghostly Sword Deserter into his spatial ring and pulled off his mask. Then once he did so, he quickly reverted his appearance from his true vampiric form to his pale-skinned human form.

As soon as he did all these, where he now looked more human and had become shorter compared to his towering, true vampiric form, Xiao Lin quickly changed the clothes that he wore and produced an ordinary looking halberd. The halberd that had appeared in his hand was one of the dozens of halberds that he acquired from those rogue cultivators that he viciously when he first appeared in the Azure Firestorm Archer's legacy ground.

Then very quickly, he dashed to the lowest floor of the mansion. And as he did this, he used his powerful Vampiric hearing ability to conceal himself from any sound that might be approaching him from far.

And when he got to the lowest floor of the mansion many moments later after hiding and concealing himself from people that he met on the way, a bright smile appeared in his face.

He was happy that he had taken the sword and bow of the Ghostly Sword Deserter. And as someone who set out to collect the spatial rings of the disciples that entered here to simply acquire their possessions, he was immensely glad to collect two that were many times greater in value than those that would be found in any of the spatial rings of the disciples that he had collected from so far. Then when he probably sold or auctioned them off, he should be able to gain a tremendous amount of money to be able to buy himself tremendous amount of resources for his Spiritual Energy cultivation.

He felt that he had to climb the ranks on time so that he would possess more strength to be able to crush all things in his path, which was far better than hiding like a tortoise everytime.

He then said inwardly 'Ghostly Sword Deserter or whatever you called yourself, we would fight again another day when we eventually meet. But I do really hope we meet in the farthest future, because at that time, I would have gotten stronger and will kill you to take the precious things that you have stored in your spatial ring"

Then immediately he said this internally, he changed his thinking.

'How do I get resources and treasures from here? These disciples are immensely powerful. I think I am only wasting my time here. Ugh! But I won't give up. Who knows, I may come across something that might bestow me with power.' Xiao Lin began to say inwardly.

And as he said this within himself, the Ghostly Sword Deserter who had stood back to his feet after being unconscious for sometime since he was struck really hard by Xiao Lin's double, fiercely powerful attacks, quickly began to employ his empyrean-grade, Ear of Heaven listening technique.

Immediately he started to do so, he began to come across many thoughts that surfaced in the minds of everyone that were in the mansion. He couldn't go beyond that as he hadn't really mastered the technique to a great level.

With his brows deeply furrowed, he tried to understand the thoughts of everyone so that he could find one that would lead him to Xiao Lin.

However, after many minutes of doing it, he couldn't find any thoughts that would make him recognize Xiao Lin.

Then when he felt that Xiao Lin had probably left the mansion and had hurried off to leave the legacy ground, he suddenly screamed out in seething anger and immensely blazing fury.

"Arghhhhhh!"

His scream was so powerful that it caused the ceiling and floor of the room that he was in to abruptly shatter into pieces.

Then with his eyes changing immediately to red due to the anger that had clouded his mind and senses, he abruptly dashed out from where he was towards the door of the mansion to leave it in search of Xiao Lin who had taken his master's swords.

While Xiao Lin who walked about in the lowest floor of the mansion, never stopped for once in producing many false thoughts of unhappiness, anger, hatred in his heart at being totally incapable of taking any cultivation resources and treasures for himself.

But as he did this, the imperceivable gaze of the unseen being in the mansion, which had been on him the entire time since he entered the mansion, began to glitter.

"Interesting!" It unexpectedly said.

It then said further "This lad should be the one to inherits my master's wealth. It has fulfilled all that my master wants. Although he is a little too evil for my liking, having wickedly killed so many innocent rogue cultivators and disciples that entered this place and using their blood to cultivate, he is however the only that can make my master's art to shine again in the world. Hmm. That's right, I will go for him. And I am certain that he wouldn't disappoint me."

It then decided to appear before Xiao Lin.

...

Xiao Lin who was breathlessly pacing about in the room with anguish and rage emitting from his body, suddenly had his body shake intensely in fear when something that he wasn't expecting and was quite odd in appearance, suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Don't be shaken, lad" The entity that had appeared in front of him in the form of a massive, winged arrow that was colored azure, said.

It then continued "I am the spirit in control of the mansion that you are in. Then furthermore, I am the one that chose to open up the legacy ground so that disciples from various sects in the town and neighboring towns can come in to take some of my master's treasures."

"Then from their intense battles amongst themselves for my master's wealth and immense treasure accumulations, I will be able to pick out the best of the best, after all, I have seen their true capabilities when they were fighting amongst themselves for bits of my master's possessions."

"But after opening the legacy ground each year for a number of ten times, I have not seen one like you. I have not seen anyone that is capable of doing what you are able to do. You have beaten and killed your way right from the gate into this mansion. Although you are really evil, wrj your methods completely vicious. It is however in line with what my master wants. He wants someone really smart, decisive and completely ruthless. Therefore, because of his order, I have made up mind to select you as my master's disciple."

Then once it said this and without giving the extremely shocked Xiao Lin the chance to say anything, it asked "So, would you like to become my master's disciple?"

Xiao Lin who was completely overwhelmed by what the mansion-residing spirit just asked, quickly nodded his head, signifying that he had agreed to become it master's disciple.

"Good!" The spirit said.

It then said further "Now, I want you to come with me to go receive the full transmission of my master's cultivation and battle art."
