Chapter 690: Revive

“Pu pu pu---”

The sword energy surged, turning into wisps of white light that blasted on the Heaven Wolf Armor. 65% of the attack power was transformed into defense stacks. Along with buzzing sounds, a transparent white barrier appeared around me and became thicker and thicker.

In a blink, the minute of Heaven Wolf Domain helped me stack 3750% defence which meant that my basic defence had 37.5 times more. Thus, my real defence had became 13987*(17.42+37.5), reaching 768 thousand. Under such a situation, unless someone had 500 thousand attack, if not they wouldn’t be able to break through my defence. At this point, my attack was at 300 thousand so even I couldn’t break through my own defence!

This defence was even more terrifying than 2000 stacks of swallow soul effect as it stacked right on defence and didn’t rely on stat buffs.

“Keng keng keng---”

Another triple slash but this time when it landed on my armor, I didn’t feel any pain at all. The damage numbers was very amusing---

“23!”

“47!”

“91!”

It actually reached double digits?

I laughed and just stood there as he attacked me. I smiled, “Aiyo, are you scratching my itch? I heard that you were the youngest human Sword Saint, now it seems like you aren’t much. Do you have other skills?”

“Jerk!”

He roared and his eyes flushed red. He raised his arm and used his ultimate-- Chaos Seven Slash!

I used Ash Fortresss and that increased my defence by 100%. My true defence now was at 1.5 million. In the sky, seven spiralling sword energies were wrapped up in the storm that sliced down. They pierced through my body and smashed the building around me. Streaks of sword energy shot out from the hall and it looked really shocking.

However, the damage numbers that rose up from my head was mocking it--

“123!”

“146!”

“189!”

“201!”

“224!”

“278!”

“330!”

……

At that moment, my tears were about to fall. I said, “Demon Flute, as Fire Demon Witch Soora’s general, is this all your strength? That doesn’t make sense right?”

“You…”

His eyes flashed red but there was nothing he could do. He was an Eternal Realm expert that focused on the sword path and all his attacks were physical. He was countered by Heaven Wolf Domain’s defence stacking effect. If he had some magic, even if he had a slight bit of Flame Explosion Technique, things wouldn’t be as awkward as this.

I can’t be too arrogant, in case things flip!

I didn’t think much and waved my dagger to deal with this battle. Demon Flute tried to fight back but my defence was too high and even without Ash Fortress there was nothing he could do. When I used it, his basic attacks and sword energies became single digits. For a boss, it was too sad.

“If I die, I will revive and take revenge on you!”

When his health was about to empty out, he roared at me.

“Okay!”

I smiled, “Come, I am not afraid of you when you ar alive. When you turn into a skeleton do you think I will be afraid of you? At most I will just kill you again!”

“Jerk, you demon!”

“Demon!?”

I slashed while shouting, “You animal betrayed the empire and harmed your own race and you scold me a demon? You are the most terrifying demon. Go to hell, embrace death you dog!”

“Peng peng peng---”

Attack Chasing Effect exploded and his health bar started to shake. Finally he fell down and turned into a bunch of gold and experience. At the same time, he dropped some equipment and they were all orange. They weren’t of much use towards me and I would just toss them to auction to earn some basic income for the studio.

……

“Kacha!”

White Deer Dagger slashed and sliced off his head. I tossed it into my bag and walked forwards. I opened the door of the cage and said towards the girl inside, “Go, you are free.”

“You… I…”

Her body shook and she looked at me pitifully, “Thank you adventurer…”@@novelbin@@

“En.”

When she walked out, she jumped and disappeared. I sucked in a deep breath and used the return scroll. Time to submit the quest!

“Shua!”

On the square, I could hear the shouts of the Dragon region warriors. I headed towards the commander hall and pushed the door, “Senior Sister, I am back!”

“Ah!?”

Senior Sister was shocked, “So quick… You have killed Demon Flute?”

“En.”

I took out his head and placed it on her table. Sylvia squinted her eyes, “Indeed… It looks like his head. I didn’t expect you to do it…”

“Of course.”

I smiled, “Don’t underestimate the power of the adventurer.”

“Scoff---”

She walked forwards and smiled, “Junior Brother, you have killed a huge threat for Dragon Region. At the same time, you have wiped out this traitor. You will obtain the reward of Dragon Region and the humans. Come, this is honor that belongs to you. I hope you continue forwards to fight for justice and light!”

“Ding!”

System Notification: Congratulations for completing main quest Assassinate General Demon Flute (SSS Grade), as he is a target of both Dragon region and the humans, your reward is doubled. You obtain the rewards: Level +1, charm +6, Dragon Region points +80000, merit points +6 million, gold +12000!

……

Nice, the rewards were huge!

There was actually 12000 gold. Senior Sister Yun was so poor so the 2000 was definitely from her and the rest should be from the humans.

“Lan Che.”

Senior Sister pointed at the ehead, “Lead some soldiers and head to Winter Sun City and hand his head to Zhenyang Duke. The humans have a 500 thousand gold reward on his head. Now that Junior Brother killed Demon Flute, go get the money and use it to buy ores to make new Dragon Pattern Shields for the soldiers!”

“Yes Lady!”

Lan Che hugged the head and ran out right away with me standing rooted to the spot. The head was worth 500 thousand and Senior Sister only gave me 12000? She was such a conman?

I turned around and looked at her but saw that she just stood there. I felt bad to scold her so I just walked out. When I stood on the ice cold corridor, I clicked the Achievement System. It was completed and I could get the reward!

Confirm, enter the system.

“Shua!”

A wind blew and in the next second I was standing in the system’s world. There was a whirlpool above my head and a saint light shone within. The moment I descended, there was a mechanical voice, “Congratulations for passing the test, obtained reward: Revive!”

“Revive!?”

I was stunned, “What does that mean?”

That voice hesitated, “Revive someone you know in this world.”

“...”

My heart sank and I didn’t even think, “Han Yixiao, I want Han Yixiao back!”

“...”

Silence. There was only the sound of the whirlpool spinning. That person kept silent for a few seconds before saying, “Unable to complete, target cannot be revived!”

I was dejected and frowned, “I… Hope to revive Li Xiao Yao!”

This time his reply was very quick, “Target is not dead, unable to revive.”

“Then, Fang Ge Que?”

“Target is also not dead, unable to revive!”

“...”

I frowned and was confused. Why would the system say that? Was Li Xiao Yao and Fang Ge Que still alive but not Old Han? Last time Han Yi Xiao told me not to look for him so what happened? Would one die after entering this world? If he was really dead then what was last time?

“So who do you hope to revive?” He rushed.

I hesitated, who else? King of Darkness? Although he was the head of Black Castle but we weren’t so close. It was a waste to revive him. At that moment, my eyes lit up and I thought about someone. My Master Xiao Chen who I had met once!

Celestial World Ancestor, I would be able to revive him right?

I raised my head and said, “I want to revive my Master Xiao Chen, is that okay?”

“...”

The system kept silent for a while, “Sure, but his body has been wiped out for years and only his soul can be revived. Are you willing?”

“Yes.”

I nodded, even if it was only his soul I would!

“Begin to revive.”

……

Lightning shone and in a blink it became sunny again. Clouds gathered like it was searching for a piece of Master’s soul. In a blink a seven colored light descended and surged into a golden pearl. Not long later, the golden pearl shone and turned into the human form of a celestial. It was Master Xiao Chen just that he was more energetic than before.

“En?”

He was shocked. He looked in the sky before lowering his head to contemplate. After a few seconds, he understood and muttered, “So that is what happened…”

“Ding!”

System Notification: You have completed the achievement system. Next stage opens up a month later!
