Chapter 164 - 8000 Crystal Coins

"Cale, this is merely the first sword movement of the Devil Arcanum Sword Movement. With your current cultivation, I can only provide you with the first three sword movements. In total, it has twelve sword movements, but you are still unqualified to get the remaining ones." Asteria's cold and haughty voice resounded inside his head.

'What?! You mean to say that there are still nine remaining sword movements?' Cale was shocked at her words since he knew that the first three sword movements were already so strong. Then how about the remaining nine? 

Asteria remained silent and refused to answer Cale's questions. 

Cale did not ask any further and held his sword firmly. He then glanced at the remaining Heavenly Winged Guardians with shining eyes.

He flapped his Void Wolf Immortal Wings and flew swiftly towards one humanoid beast. He then slashed it with his sword with a casual sword strike. 

The Heavenly Winged Guardian raised its stone weapon, but like a hot knife slicing through butter, the stone weapon was slashed in half by Cale's sword. 

Cale's Void Wolf Immortal set equipment was a growth type equipment. It means that it has the ability to grow along with its owner. And after he had broken through to the mid stage of the Immortal-Class level, the Void Wolf Immortal set equipment was also promoted to the Immortal level greatly enhancing its power. Although there were no major changes in its appearance, the whole set became much more powerful.

Cale's sword cut the Heavenly Winged Guardian in half. Its stone weapon was not even able to resist for a second under Cale's sword before it was destroyed.

"Puchi!" The sound of meat being cut in half echoed faintly as the beast's blood sprayed like a fountain. Its huge headless body dropped with a dull thud creating another crater on the ground.

Cale with an unperturbed look glanced at the remaining Heavenly Winged Guardian. He then disappeared from his spot and reappeared behind one of them.

"Puchi!" The beast's head was decapitated from its body in one swift motion. Cale was emotionless after killing the humanoid beast. He knew that he had to become stronger if he wants to save his planet.

"Roar!" Angry roars reverberated inside the cave but Cale and Aurora remained calm. They continued their onslaught with an expression that was devoid of any change.

Aurora used her Frozen End Domain to restrict the movements of the Heavenly Winged Guardians while Cale acc_u_mulated his elemental essence to perform the second sword movement of the Devil Arcanum Sword Movement, the Thousand Sword Strike.

"Second Sword Movement, Thousand Sword Strike," Cale muttered calmly. 

One thousand clones with the same facial features as Cale emerged in a blink of an eye. Each of the clones can strike with fifty percent of the user's strength. And with a thousand of them circling around the Heavenly Winged Guardians, the result of their strike can already be imagined.

The one thousand clones slashed their swords at the remaining Heavenly Winged Guardians without restraint. 

Strong gusts of wind rose inside the cave throwing away all the Saint-Class level savage beasts. Only Ember was able to gain its footing with great difficulty. 

Left with no room for escape, the Immortal-Class level Heavenly Winged Guardians died from Cale's attack with their bodies hacked into pieces. 

Cale felt a bit weakened after the attack but he was happy with the results. "So I can't use this attack consecutively or I might exhaust the elemental essence in my body. As for the third sword movement, I might not have the ability to move anymore if I perform that attack... I should only use it when I have no other choice."

Cale slowly descended towards the ground. "Aurora, please get the crystals for me." He said with a hint of excitement. He mentally calculated the number of Immortal-Class level Heavenly Winged Guardians that they had killed. 'We killed ten earlier and another thirty-six this time, so that's a total of forty-six Holy Nourishing Crystal. Damn, I'm now rich!' 

Aurora handed all the Holy Nourishing Crystal to Cale after she had collected all of it. 

Cale looked calm on the surface but he was inwardly smiling from ear to ear. 'I'm filthy rich now! I'm rich! Hahahaha!' 

- Ding!

- Do you want to exchange these to the Black Market?

'Asteria, just exchange forty crystals. The remaining six will be given to Ember.' Cale said in his mind.

Although he was somewhat pained to part with the six Holy Nourishing Crystals, he still decided to give it to Ember to make up with it. After all, he had wasted its potential by letting it stay inside the Virtual Training Environment for a long time.

- Ding!

- You received 8 000 000 000 000 Black Coins!

- Converting to Crystal Coins!

- You received 8000 Crystal Coins!

One Crystal Coin was equivalent to one billion Black Coins.

Cale could no longer hold back the smirk on his face. He broke into a hideous grin that made him look like a pervert. Aurora who saw Cale's strange smile shuddered and she took several steps back in alarm. 

Cale's expression then turned somber all of sudden. He glanced at Aurora and spoke in a cold tone. "Aurora, let's go back to the Celestial Sword Empire. I have a feeling that something bad will happen to the empire and this might be related to that beast tide. I hope I'm wrong..." 

Aurora nodded her head gently. "Yes, my lord."

Cale handed it to the pegasus who then munched the six Holy Nourishing Crystals like it was eating candies. After swallowing the last contents of the crystals, it then lied down on the ground and closed its eyes with a satisfied expression. 

Cale didn't know whether to laugh or to cry after seeing its actions. 

"Don't worry. It's undergoing the process of evolution. It will take some time, so put him back inside the Virtual Training Environment first."

Cale put Ember back inside the Virtual Training Environment after hearing Asteria's words. He then gestured Aurora to follow after him and said in a stern voice. "It's time to go back, Aurora. Let's go!"
