Earth Immortal Freak (5)

'Why...

'I too am strong. I am also a genius amongst geniuses. I cultivate endlessly, I am born into a family of greatness. My mother and father are incredibly strong Golden Immortals.

'I was born with intelligence from birth. I grew up with strength beyond my peers. I was a genius so tell me, why am I being utterly suppressed by a mere Profound Immortal?'

Wang Xuan coughed a mouthful of blood after receiving a powerful kick originating from Oblivion's leg and right after, an arc of curved light tore apart the surrounding space.

{Sword of Annihilation}

A white stream of light exited the sword.

Instantly, time seemed to have been torn apart and regain its movements. The world seemed to start back as Wang Xuan's arm was cleanly sliced off along with half his chest.

The most shocking part for Wang Xuan wasn't the fact that he couldn't react, nor the fact that blood didn't spurt out his wound but, the fact that he understood instantly that he would never be able to regrow it.

It came to him like an instinct.

The right arm on the ground was not regrowing. His body would forever remain incomplete. He was an Immortal cultivator, so he wouldn't die immediately but, he, Wang Xuan was forever injured.

Urgh!

"F-From a mere..." Wang Xuan was dazed. "A mere Profound Immortal..." His words barely exited his throat. His body felt heavy as if he was trying to keep up a mountain on his back.

"Who told you I'm a Profound Immortal...?!"

Suddenly, Oblivion's voice filled with an indefinite detachment to life entered his ears. It was as if he felt sorry for poor Wang Xuan, trying to ease the feeling of inferiority.

Hahaha...!

"So you were a Pseudo Golden Immortal, just like me... No wonder you were soo strong!" Oblivion's words seemed to reignite something in Wang Xuan.

His arrogance was restored. He could die with peace of mind now. So what if he was a genius, he also knew there were other geniuses in this world.

"But, don't think you can kill me without any consequences!" Wang Xuan's body fell to the ground, kneeling, he weakly said to Oblivion. "I'm not from a place which you can offend. Unless you've got a deeper background, your death is all but certain."

Oh.

Oblivion sighed. Even in death, some people wanted to act all high and mighty. "I said I'm not a Profound Immortal, and you think I'm a Pseudo Golden Immortal." Oblivion changed the subject.

He decided to not entertain this man's arrogance any longer. So what, even with a powerful background, can this help him now?

"I'm a mere Earth Immortal..." Oblivion smirked coldly.

"Have you seen this before? In the background you speak of, is there someone like me? Someone who could kill Pseudo Golden Immortals with the cultivation of an Earth Immortal...?

"Now, do you think your background is anything to mention in front of me...?" Oblivion confidently proclaimed. His words immediately had the desired effect.

Wang Xuan thought he had seen through Oblivion's words.

'An Earth Immortal...! Damn... if this is true, no, I can't risk it. Even if it's not true, I can't risk it. If he's a freak, an Earth Immortal freak, the organization he's part of, is much more terrifying than my parents... They'll only get killed for no reason!'

He had seen through what Oblivion wanted him to see through. Using a little wording, it was easy for Oblivion to make it seem as if he didn't place Wang Xuan's background in his eyes.

Acting like a true genius was simple, after all, they only had arrogance on top of arrogance. But, unexpectedly, even in the face of this, Wang Xuan smirked. He wasn't stupid after all.

'Even if you're in such an organization, even if I'll die today, I'll still make at least one of my enemies pay...!' Wang Xuan thought. On his face was a provoking smirk, and mockery in his eyes.

Oblivion saw through his act. 'He's trying to provoke me to kill him. Has he gone mad in despair?'

Sigh!

'Let's see what tricks he still has.

'Anyway, I've got this mark from that woman, inside this region, I should be safe. And if he's about to blow up, the current me should be able to tank such a petty trick.'

Instantly, Oblivion's sword blurred. At this moment, countless sword-shaped shadows appeared behind his original sword as they all rushed toward Wang Xuan's kneeling figure.

Puchi!

Blood splattered all around. The skies were painted red. Riddled with holes, Wang Xuan's body limply fell to the ground, tainting the white snow in red blood.

Oblivion didn't stop there. In the next moment, Wang Xuan's body was sliced into millions of tiny pieces. One could never be too sure when it came to killing Immortal cultivators.

Silence descended.

Oblivion's figure was unmoving.

At this time, he was inside the mysterious space of comprehension, rushing up flights of stairs, precisely, he rushed up a thousand stairs before, and he couldn't go any longer.

What surprised him was, there wasn't anything like him breaking through. Unlike the other times, he had still not broken through even after killing another Pseudo Golden Immortal.

A frown covered his face. Due to this, he didn't realize the mysterious light that originated from the location of Wang Xuan's body. This light shot into Oblivion's chest.

"How... Why am I still unable to enter the Profound Immortal realm?" Oblivion pondered with an annoyed expression on his face. He didn't even feel like killing the other members of the group any longer.

If even killing a Pseudo Golden Immortal didn't help, then what would a bunch of lowly Profound Immortals due?

Yet, this train of thought didn't actually stop him from getting to his loot. Due to Wang Xuan's time manipulation, the group members were stuck in time during the battle.

They were all in a hundred thousand-mile radius. Though it sounded as if this much of a distance would be troublesome to travel... How quick was Oblivion?

Such a distance could be covered in a few seconds. The shocked group members would still be suffering side effects from being isolated in the time of the real world and Wang Xuan's domain.

Re-entering the time flow of the real world wasn't something anyone could ignore. Unless one had natural negation like a certain someone...

Oblivion's blade easily slaughtered the ten remaining figures. In that time, his blade devoured the blood and energy of those it killed, strengthening itself once more.

In time, hopefully, it'll upgrade to a higher level once more. Previously, he didn't entertain the idea but, if things went like this, eventually, his blade would surpass the rank of power that he was in...?

Sigh!

Oblivion released another pent-up breath of air. Thinking about the bottleneck he found himself in, his expression darkened. It darkened but, for only a moment... Suddenly, an idea entered his mind.

"System, didn't you have a function called kill points...?" Oblivion smirked. He had slaughtered several people.

Plus, Saber was much more bloodthirsty and had definitely slaughtered to his satisfaction in Hell's Tower, the number of kill points should be incredible.

Ding!

[Yes, the system does have such a function. With Kill points, the host is capable of affecting reality to a certain degree, all due to Zeno's intervention.

[Due to the level of World Laws inside the Heavenly Mystic Domain, Hell's Tower, and the Cosmos instead of a Low-Level Planet, Kill points have been updated to Immortal Death Points]
