[Therefore, knowing full well this is the Demon Emperor's scheme, you are still determined to face the challenge head-on!]
Su Xing gave a slight nod and murmured:
"If it were the real world, I might play it safe... but this is a simulation. If I die, I can just restart. What threat can you pose to me, boy?"
"Besides, if I want to properly harness my swordsmanship, I can't always retreat... Only by daring to tackle difficulties and exterminating all foes can I call myself a true Sword Cultivator!"
As Su Xing acquired the talent of an Innate Sword Body and his understanding of the Three Talents Sword Technique deepened, his personality increasingly resembled that of a Sword Cultivator.
"Better to seek righteously than to profit through deceit!"
Such is the way of the Sword Cultivator.
Su Xing yearned for that feeling of a sword strike sweeping three thousand miles.
He looked toward the simulation panel.
[You come alone to a mountain peak and break into the Demon Race's camp.]
[As expected, the silver-haired Demon Emperor proves to be extremely vicious. He had already laid a trap, a net in the sky and snares on the ground. Besides himself, a Demon Emperor, there are dozens of Legendary Demon Beasts lying in wait, determined to kill you.]
[The silver-haired Demon Emperor mocks you for your foolishness, laughing at you for knowingly walking into his trap.]
[But your only response is a cold laugh as you take the initiative to strike at the silver-haired Demon Emperor with your sword.]
[Although the silver-haired Demon Emperor had long anticipated your quick sword speed and was on guard, your mastery of speed had far surpassed his expectations.]
[With a single slash, the two fingers which the silver-haired Demon Emperor had just regenerated were severed again, instantly splattering blood.]
[The silver-haired Demon Emperor's face turns to shock, for the strength you've shown in this fight far exceeds his prior estimation.]
[Looking at his freshly restored fingers being severed once more, the silver-haired Demon Emperor can no longer care about saving face and immediately commands the surrounding Legendary Demon Beasts to attack together.]
[Being attacked simultaneously by a Demon Emperor and dozens of Legendary Demon Beasts puts you under immense pressure!]
[Despite your unparalleled swordsmanship and understanding of the power of speed, you can't ignore the onslaught of these Legendary-level Demonic Beasts.]
[You can only grit your teeth and prop up your Protective Gang Qi, repeatedly defending against the attacks of the surrounding Legendary Demonic Beasts while also remaining vigilant for the silver-haired Demon Emperor's sneak attacks.]
[Your Protective Gang Qi shatters time after time, and you immediately channel Origin Force to repair it.]
[This causes a tremendous drain on your Origin Force.]
[After enduring only a few rounds of attacks, wounds begin to appear on your body.]
[Knowing that continuing is not a solution, you clench your teeth as Spiritual Energy quickly gathers within your body.]
[Spiritual Power continuously compresses and condenses, finally forming a fire-attribute vortex in the palm of your hand, followed by a strand of wood attribute infusion.]
[Spirit Explosion Technique formed!]
[You hurl it directly into the midst of the Demonic Beast group in front of you.]
[In an instant, terrifying Spiritual Energy sweeps through the surroundings, and you immediately enter the Spirit Field Cave to dodge the aftermath of the Spirit Explosion Technique.]
[You take out a vial of Spiritual Liquid and swiftly drink it down. After a brief recovery of your Spiritual Power, you immediately return to the Slaughter Battlefield.]
[You see that the small hill where you were standing has been obliterated, leaving a huge crater in the ground.]
[The air is filled with the foul stench of Demonic Beast blood, and scattered limbs and unidentifiable flesh can be seen everywhere...]
[With just one Spirit Explosion Technique, you killed more than a dozen weaker Legendary Demonic Beasts, and most of the others were also heavily injured.]
[Clearly, they had not expected that in addition to your exceptional swordsmanship, you also had such a terrifying ace up your sleeve.]
[Pleased with the clearing effect of the Spirit Explosion Technique, with the number of Demonic Beasts greatly reduced, you turn your gaze to the silver-haired Demon Emperor not far away, a provocative smile on your face.]
[The silver-haired Demon Emperor is also somewhat bedraggled. When the Spirit Explosion Technique erupted, he was right at the center of the explosion. Though his strength as a Demon Emperor is incomparable to that of the Legendaries, he comes out of it with only minor injuries.]
[After you reappear, without hesitation, you immediately unleash three strikes.]
[With each strike, a Legendary Demonic Beast falls.]
[Three strikes, three peak Legendary Demonic Beasts perish under the Ink Ice Sword.]
[Seeing his kin die, the rage of the silver-haired Demon Emperor is uncontainable, and he engages you in close combat once again.]
[A great battle is imminent, and in just half an hour, you exchange hundreds of moves.]
[The Demon Emperor puts tremendous pressure on you—a true fight to the death might leave you slightly inferior to this silver-haired Demon Emperor.]
[But the sword in your hand also holds the threat of inflicting serious injury or even death on him, so the silver-haired Demon Emperor doesn't dare to truly gamble his life against you.]
[The battle goes on for a full day and night.]
[Even with the terrifying endurance of a Broken Void Realm Cultivator, you still feel extremely fatigued. However, you hold your breath, knowing that you must not let your resolve wane, for if your spirit falters, your swordsmanship will struggle to improve thereafter.]
[At the end of the fierce battle, you have sustained one hundred twenty-eight wounds. The deepest one stretches from your left chest to your abdomen, almost causing your intestines to spill out.]
[That was the fatal injury left on you by the silver-haired Demon Emperor after he broke through your Protective Gang Qi and Origin Force armor.]
[Fortunately, you were able to use Spiritual Power to stop the bleeding in time, otherwise, you could have died from excessive blood loss.]
[In comparison to you, heavily wounded, the condition of the silver-haired Demon Emperor is not much better.]
[His entire right arm has been sliced off, blood flowing unceasingly, while his body is riddled with numerous sword injuries.]
[However, the terrifying physical quality and recovery power of the Demon Emperor still grant the silver-haired Demon Emperor the strength to fight.]
[At this moment, apart from the Demon Emperor himself, all the surrounding Legendary Demonic Beasts have been slain by you!]
