Chapter 1240 Demi-God Rank Swordsman



A man in a gray robe with a pointy straw hat covered his face, leaning against the big gate. The gate was made of black stone, ten meters tall. That was the Guardian Gate for the twentieth floor of the dimensional tower. His name was Kadir, The God Rank candidate for the White Mystery Alliance once he ascended to the God Rank. This would be one of many favors he owed to the God Ranks in the White Mystery, killing a newbie.

"I have wasted my time for a few months in this tower. Can they send someone else instead of me? Isn't it overkill sending me to kill a newbie?" Kadir complained by himself. He was frustrated because he had been waiting here for over two months. From the information he received, his target would climb up the tower through this gate.

His palm tapped on the sword's handle, his newly developed habit from waiting for his target in the last few months, "Maybe he is already on the twenty-first floor?" He furrowed his brow, opening his faction menu. He was part of the White Mystery Candidate, a faction created by the White Mystery to place the candidates that would join the actual God Alliance. Opening the Communication System, he sent a message to the person who gave him the information.

Kadir was about to send the message, but he sensed someone coming for him. He looked up, and a man with thin clothes approached him. He used Detection on the man and frowned, "Primordial Rank? I thought my target is Myth Rank. Is he, not my target?"

"No. Based on the information, my target is the only person to reach this level by himself," Kadir opened the message log once more, checking the information. The message told him that the target was the only person who climbed the tower to the twentieth floor, meaning the incoming person was his target. There was a lot of information below, but he did not bother to read all of them. It was just a newbie from the lower world. The task should be a walk in the park for him.

Kadir pushed his body from the gate, stretching out his waist. The waiting game was finally over, and it was time to fulfill the favor. His left hand was on his sword, walking toward the incoming person.

When the distance between them shortened to twenty meters, both stopped their steps. Kadir pushed his hat slightly to get a better look at the man. He did not have the special eyes to see energy radiated from the man, but he could tell why the White Mystery wanted the man. For someone in his rank, the man was terrifying.

"Are you perhaps refusing the White Mystery's invitation?" Kadir was curious about what made the White Mystery's God Ranks ask him to kill the man. He felt like the man and the White Mystery would not cross paths, not until the man reached the God Rank. Even when the man reached God Rank, the probability they crossed the path was small. God Realm was vast, after all.

"So you are the White Mystery's slave 01?" Tang Shaoyang replied to the question with another question.

Kadir's eyes twitched when he heard the terms of slave 01. Then he realized the man indeed declined the invitation and became the White Mystery's target, "I am not their slave. I am just doing a favor for them because they help me to get out of a complicated situation."

"You are the strongest person I have encountered so far, Slave 01," Tang Shaoyang ignored Kadir's words, still calling Kadir Slave 01, "If I exclude several God Ranks I have met, you are the strongest person."

Kadir's expression changed when God Ranks were mentioned. He furrowed his brows, 'Does he have someone back him up? Wouldn't this become troublesome if I kill him?' It was common for God Rank to pick someone from the lower world to nurture. At least, that was what he heard from the other White Mystery candidates.

"How could you still be alive after you encountered several God Ranks? At least make a believable lie," Kadir tried to get some information. He wanted to know if the man had a God Rank's support or not, or if it was a hostile God Rank. If the man did not have God Rank's support and met a hostile God Rank yet still alive, he must be careful.

Tang Shaoyang shrugged, "I won't bother to convince you. But thanks to the White Mystery for sending you to me. You should be good enough to be a test subject."

"Test subject?" Kadir almost laughed at the joke. Those words came from the Primordial Rank, two ranks below him. That was an almost funny joke for him.

"Yes. I want to kill a God Rank, maybe several of them. I don't know how many will come to my world. You are the right opponent to test my limit before I fight the God Ranks. Aside from the God Ranks, most of my opponents are quite weak," Tang Shaoyang was honest.

"You are quite confident, but there's no fight. You will die without being able to fight back... Huh!?" Kadir was confused. The man was still twenty meters in front of him, but he sensed someone behind him. He turned around, and the man who was supposed to be twenty meters away was right behind him with a battle-ax made of white bone. The battle-ax was covered in black fire, and he sensed a strong energy in the ax.

Kadir sheathed his sword, putting his sword horizontally, trying to block the incoming ax. However, as soon as the battle-ax hit the sword, he realized blocking the attack was a mistake. The black fire burst out into him, his feet pushed down to the ground as the ground cracked from the impact. The following attack was [Thousand Blasts], raining Kadir down.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Kadir felt the burning of the skin. It was not just a normal fire, stronger than a normal fire. He tried to use his energy to get rid of the fire, but he failed.

"Arghhhh!" Kadir shouted, forming a sword with his energy and creating a whirlwind sword. He neutralized the fire with his energy and came out of the pit. He suffered an internal injury from the first exchange, and that was because he underestimated his target.

"Come here, You Coward!" Kadir shouted as he came out of the fire pit. The impact from the attack was strong enough to form a ten meters deep pit. He immediately searched for his target and quickly found Tang Shaoyang.

Tang Shaoyang was in the same spot before he launched the sneak attack on Kadir. After the initial attack, he immediately used the Grand Dragon Transformation and also used Spirit Integration with Zara. Karoen advised him not to use Spirit Integration with him yet, not until he reached his Legend Rank. If he could not use Spirit Integration with Karoen and Avyn, Zara was his best option. The strongest spirit after Avyn and Karoen.

"In the end, you are just a filthy human who mixes your blood with beast and demon," There was hatred and disdain in his tone when he mentioned the mixed blood.

That was a surprise for Tang Shaoyang. If the man in front of him detested the bloodline, that meant the man did not have a bloodline. That meant his opponent was weaker than he thought, 'No, don't underestimate him, Tang Shaoyang. He barely hurt even with the Chaos Fire and Thousand Blast.'

"Let me show the real power without those filthy bloodlines," Kadir swung his sword toward Tang Shaoyang. The distance between them was twenty meters, but he still swung the sword without getting closer.

Tang Shaoyang however saw the attack. The attack formed energy, and his opponent released the energy toward him. However, that was too simple for an attack. He swung the battle ax toward the incoming sword energy.

Boom!

Tang Shaoyang soon realized the attack was not as simple as he thought. As soon as he neutralized the incoming sword energy, dozens more formed around him, surrounding him from all sides. At the same time, Kadir was already in front of him with the sword. If he blocked Kadir's sword, the dozen of sword energies would hit him from behind and the other side. If he tried to block the sword's energies, then he was defenseless to Kadir's swords.

"You almost got me," Tang Shaoyang's figure disappeared, using Blink backward. The dozen of sword energies hit the empty ground.n0veLusb.c0m

Boom!

"I figure it out you are strong enough to escape from my first sword, but not this one," Kadir expected Tang Shaoyang to escape from the pincher. He was already above in the air with his sword. Behind him, there was a ten meters sword projection. He descended toward Tang Shaoyang along with the sword energy behind him.

"There's no need for me to escape from this one," Tang Shaoyang looked up. Heavenly Energy burst out from him, covering his body. He used the Nine Heavenly Gates: Sixth Gate - Heavenly White Tiger, Havoc. The Heavenly Energy focused on the Abyssal Bone's blade, then Tang Shaoyang swung his battle-ax upward. As he swung the battle-ax upward, the form of the Heavenly Beast, White Tiger formed in his attack, clashed against the sword.

Boom!

The Heavenly Energy clashed with the Sword Energy, creating a massive explosion. Along with the explosion, a wide and deep crater formed as if a giant meteor just fell on that spot. Tang Shaoyang and Kadir were caught in their energy explosion.
