2 God Slaying

Source Power Cultivation in Pegasus Planet was divided into ten levels. A person was considered an extremely powerful expert when their Source Power Level reached Level Seven.

Even though Xu Hui was already over 80 years old, the activation of Source Power caused his body to instantly surpass the limits of an average human body.

He pounced like an eagle. He was faster than an arrow.

Xu Hui wanted to capture his target alive. He didn't know what kind of madness 088 was suffering from. He had to get him to explain himself.

Just as Xu Hui landed, Gao Xuan tilted his body and stepped sideways. He narrowly avoided Xu Hui's attack and retreated to the corner of the room.

The room was only a dozen square meters. Gao Xuan had nowhere else to retreat to now that he had reached the corner of the room.

Xu Hui gracefully turned around after he landed, but he wasn't eager to attack again.

Even though he hadn't used his full power in his attack just now, Gao Xuan shouldn't have been able to dodge the attack with his level of ability.

Xu Hui well knew how strong these youths were.

Even though they'd all passed the cruel Hell's Training, their true cultivation level was only Level Three or Level Four. Hell's Training was more for training their mental strength.

Of course, having a Source Power Level of Level Three at the age of 17 or 18 was enough for someone to be considered a genius. They would be undefeated among people their own age.

However, they were still much weaker compared to a Level Seven expert like himself.

Gao Xuan was ranked last among the batch of youths at the base, so Gao Xuan's ability to dodge his eagle-like pounce greatly surpassed Xu Hui's expectations.

Furthermore, the ripples of Source Power around Gao Xuan were slight. It was clear that he wasn't more powerful than Source Power Level Three. He had merely used his judgment to react at the opportune time. That was what enabled Gao Xuan to avoid his attack.

There was no complicated technique behind the maneuver. What mattered most was his judgment.

Xu Hui looked Gao Xuan up and down. "I didn't expect you to have such an ability. I underestimated you in the past."

Gao Xuan shook his head slightly. "You didn't underestimate me. It's just that I've been reborn. The foresight and experience that I accumulated over one hundred years far surpass yours. It wasn't difficult for me to avoid your attack."

"I'm starting to believe that you really have been reborn. I'm going to capture you and extract all of your memory to see just how the world is one hundred years from now!"

Xu Hui squinted and smiled sinisterly. He'd be able to ascertain if Gao Xuan was speaking the truth or not if he captured him.

Gao Xuan also smiled. "Teacher, you are still so decisive and merciless." He then shook his head and said, "Unfortunately, I am definitely going to win this battle."

Xu Hui didn't know what type of attacks Gao Xuan had at his disposal. His eyes narrowed and he was about to unleash a killing blow when Gao Xuan raised his hand. "Don't rush, Teacher. You can keep your Green Thread Sword and Three-Pronged Shuriken. You also need not unleash your Wind Source Power Technique yet."

Xu Hui's expression changed when he heard Gao Xuan talk about the weapons and secret techniques that he was most adept in.

He had never revealed his true strength and secret techniques in the dozen years that he'd been at the base. Even his close friends didn't know these secrets.

How did Gao Xuan know about them?

Gao Xuan seemed to realize Xu Hui's confusion. He said, a little frustrated, "I already said that I've been reborn. Not only do I know what you're most adept in, but I also know that you have a daughter by the name of Xu Yan who's living in Mingjing City. You also have a granddaughter and a grandson-in-law. What a large family. How bustling."

Xu Hui's face turned steel-green. His daughter was his greatest secret. Even the organization didn't know about her. How did Gao Xuan know about this?

"You want to threaten me with my daughter? Impossible."

Xu Hui was extremely decisive. He activated the Green Thread Sword on his right wrist without hesitation.

The Green Thread Sword was made by fusing Super Fiber with titanium thread. It was thin as a hair and four meters long. Only Xu Hui, with his robust Source Power, could wield the Green Thread Sword using a unique technique.

From this distance, he'd be able to dismember Gao Xuan with a twirl of the Green Thread Sword.

"Twang…"

The long, crisp ring of a sword suddenly rang in Xu Hui's ears, and a ray of red divine light with unparalleled sharpness burned into his retinas.

But the next instant, Xu Hui's mind went blank.

When Xu Hui came to his senses, he was shocked to discover that his eyes had turned red. In front of him, Gao Xuan's handsome, emotionless face seemed to be dyed with a layer of blood, and he looked a little blurry and fuzzy.

He didn't know when the red scabbard of a long sword had appeared in Gao Xuan's hand.

The red scabbard looked ancient and exquisite, yet it had an intense aura of demons and danger. Faintly, Xu Hui seemed to be able to hear murderous howls coming from within the scabbard. It was as if demons were about to jump out from within it.

Xu Hui felt that the sword in Gao Xuan's hand was extremely familiar, but he couldn't remember where he'd seen it.

What was worse was that Xu Hui didn't know what had happened just now.

Currently, Xu Hui didn't have any strength left in his body. The Source Power in his body had also scattered. He was like a wooden puppet. He had completely lost control of his body.

Gao Xuan raised the dark red scabbard and looked into Xu Hui's ancient eyes. "Teacher, do you remember this sword?"

Xu Hui's bleeding old eyes moved a little, but he couldn't speak.

Gao Xuan said, understanding his teacher's plight, "Teacher, the blow that you took between the eyebrows must've nearly caused your brain to explode. You won't be able to speak for the time being. You can just listen to me."

He continued, "This sword is the God Slaying Sword that was hidden deep within the underground treasury. You must remember it."

Xu Hui suddenly remembered. That was right. The sword was the God Slaying Sword that was hidden deep within the base's underground treasury.

The God Slaying Sword was a Miracle Item that had been passed down since ancient times. Its sharpness had no equal. It could cleave and destroy anything it came across.

It was said that the sword could destroy both gods and galaxies.

However, the sword was also extremely strange. As long as a wielder used this sword in battle, they would definitely be devoured by the God Slaying Sword.

The Blood Deity Association researched the God Slaying Sword for some time after they'd obtained it. Then, they finally came to this conclusion: The God Slaying Sword kills both enemies and allies without exception.

Current technology allowed humans to traverse galaxies and break down the human genome.

No matter how powerful the God Slaying Sword was, it was but a cold weapon. It was incomparable to modern technological weapons. Furthermore, no one could control the dangers it brought about.

This was a unique characteristic of Miracle Items. They possessed special powers but also brought about uncontrollable danger.

Miracle Items were non-human entities that possessed unique powers.

The existence of Miracle Items and how they worked were not limited by the laws of physics. They could not be fully comprehended by intelligent life.

Thus, the God Slaying Sword had been hidden deep within the underground treasury of the base.

Xu Hui had seen the God Slaying Sword once, but that had been ten years ago.

Xu Hui couldn't figure it out. How did Gao Xuan know that the God Slaying Sword was in the treasury? And how did he obtain it? Did Gao Xuan not know the dangers of the God Slaying Sword?

The God Slaying Sword was devilish. Even a Source Power Level Seven expert like him couldn't fight against the God Slaying Sword.

That meant Gao Xuan would die from battling with the God Slaying Sword.

Xu Hui caught his breath. His lips cracked into a smile as he said, "The God Slaying Sword kills enemies and allies alike without exception. You will die with me."

"Do you know why I left you with breath in your body?" Gao Xuan smiled and said, "Because I have too many secrets that I want to tell somebody. Teacher, please last a little longer."

Xu Hui's thoughts were confused, but he could just understand the meaning behind Gao Xuan's words.

It seemed like Gao Xuan had found a way to utilize the God Slaying Sword?

Gao Xuan seemed to know what Xu Hui was thinking even though he hadn't said anything. "Teacher, you sure are an intelligent man. You got the answer in an instant."

He said, "The God Slaying Sword kills both enemies and allies because of a strange curse on the sword itself."

Gao Xuan spoke as he pulled out the God Slaying Sword. He gently stroked the complicated patterns at the base of the blood-colored blade. "See this? These words are clear as day: Those who see blood, die."

He then laughed. "Teacher, you must understand now. The God Slaying Sword cannot see blood. Those who see blood will definitely die."

Xu Hui's spirits lifted when he heard this, and he became unusually alert. "Then you're dead meat!"

"Teacher, as crafty as you are, you've become so stupid in the face of death. You really disappoint me."

Gao Xuan said leisurely, "Since I dare to use the God Slaying Sword, I naturally have a way not to be harmed by it."

Xu Hui was silent. Indeed, that was simple logic. He should have thought of that.

It was just that his brain was filled with hatred and fury. He no longer had the capacity to think.

Gao Xuan shook his head slightly. "Teacher, you're at fault here. At this moment, you should be the one keeping the conversation going. You should be curiously asking me what my secret is."

Xu Hui was extremely tired. He wanted to close his eyes, yet he also wanted to hear the secret that allowed Gao Xuan to wield the God Slaying Sword.

"Teacher, you looked tired yet determined. You're being very cooperative. I'm a little touched."

Even though Gao Xuan said this, the smile on his face slowly ebbed away. He continued, "But, you are a cold-blooded nobody. You're not worthy enough to hear my secret."

This sudden humiliation caused the corner of Xu Hui's eyes to twitch. However, in his current state, he no longer had the energy to express his fury.

Gao Xuan said with a sincere expression on his face, "Teacher, don't worry. Even though I detest you, as your disciple I'll still mind my manners. I'll send your daughter and your entire family down to Hell with you so that you'll be happily reunited with your family…"

Xu Hui only had a breath of life left. When he heard these words, his old eyes bulged and he stared at Gao Xuan. His expression became exceptionally ferocious. He wanted to curse Gao Xuan, but he staggered and couldn't speak.

His agitated fury rapidly burned up the life he had left within him.

In a few seconds, Xu Hui's bloody eyes rolled into the back of his head, and his head gradually slumped downward. There was still a look of hatred and fury on his face.

Gao Xuan reached his hand out and gently patted Xu Hui's head. "Teacher, I was just joking with you. Why did you have to get that agitated?"

Feeling humored, he then said, "Your fierce expression is quite humorous. Unfortunately, 006, 022, 031, 055, 091, and the rest of the thousand nameless youths will never be able to see it."

Gao Xuan muttered to himself, "They were more pathetic than you when they died. They didn't even have the chance to be furious."

He gently stroked the exquisite red scabbard and muttered, "I swear on this sword that I will exact revenge on the Blood Deity Association for myself and for all of my brothers and sisters!"
