It happened quickly. With one swift, precise strike, Gu Ran's longsword sliced across the neck of an Early-stage Heavenly Origin realm cultivator, ending his life instantly.
Gu Ran's eyes widened slightly as he realized, I did it! No one stopped me! He could feel the surge of cultivation power from the defeated cultivator flowing into his own body.
A wave of joy rushed through him, but he didn't hesitate. He locked onto another Early-stage Heavenly Origin realm cultivator and launched another fierce attack, successfully killing them too.
They're letting me fight Heavenly Origin realm cultivators without interference! he thought excitedly. This is valuable. Each one I kill only gives me a small boost, but it all adds up!
Still, Gu Ran knew this strategy wouldn't work forever. He needed to figure out a way to eliminate them entirely.
