Chapter 157: True legacy stage



"She really is something. This girl is going to clear the tenth stage."

At this time, someone pointed at the screen which was displaying Angelica Green Heaven's figure; she had just cleared the tenth stage at the same time as David.

The crowd immediately forgot about David and started to feverishly discuss among themselves.

"Why is no one from the Truth Seeker formation organization here yet? Do they want to let go of such a good opportunity?" someone asked with a little bit of dissatisfaction.

The surrounding cultivators who heard looked at the speaker with slight confusion in their eyes.

"Tch! Don't you know Truth Seeker formation organizations rarely take part in outside events?"

While they were talking, Angelica Green Heaven had already managed to clear through the eleventh stage, defeating fifty-five opponents at the same realm as hers.

At this time, the focus of the entire crowd was on her screen; hundreds of eyes were looking at her every action gracefully.

Roy Green Heaven, who was struggling at the sixth stage, was completely ignored by the crowd.

"The second stage will begin in 3, 2... 1"

While David was busy gawking around, the mysterious voice announced in a plain tone.

However, it was more interesting to know what David was looking to find in the emptiness of the hall.

Before he could think about anything else, suddenly, out of nowhere, ten cultivators at the peak of Golden Core Realm appeared in mid-air. They were heavily armed; from head to toe, their bodies were covered in full body armor, and in their hands was a sharp sword.

Weapon!

David's eyes narrowed. It was rare to find anyone with a weapon these days. He could count on his hands how many times he had encountered cultivators wielding a weapon in the Green Heaven World.

Maybe it was a cultural thing; David wasn't sure.

"They weren't this armed before," David muttered while looking at the ten cultivators deeply.

He had witnessed several fights on the screen; moreover, the guys that he encountered on the first stage paled in comparison to the cultivators in front of him.

If the cultivators on the first stage were a bunch of young thugs, then the cultivators on the second stage were well-trained soldiers.

David wasn't the only one to notice this change. Sebastian, the two ladies, and an arrogant duck were also looking at the screen displaying David's situation intently.

At this time, Lucas suddenly spoke loudly in concern, but anyone with keen eyes could tell how happy he was.

"What the hell! Why does this guy seem to have gotten weaker opponents than me?"

Although Lucas didn't understand why the situation had changed, he didn't care; he just wanted to watch David suffer.

Other than Lucas, the only one to notice the change was Red Lotus, who was still keeping a close eye on him.

"Now things are really getting interesting."

It appeared this Dimension gate wasn't as simple as it looked.

"Maybe I should inform my dear sister."

Just as this thought popped up in her head, she immediately contacted her sister White Lotus, the Matriarch of the Morgan family.

David also turned serious. Although these people didn't seem to pose a threat to him, it would be laughable if he were to lose because of his carelessness.

The nine cultivators suddenly moved while one remained floating in the back.

"So he is the leader, huh!" David's eyes flashed with understanding.

He didn't immediately take action but waited; first, he needed to find more information about them.

Soon, under David's watchful gaze, the armored men surrounded him with an X-shaped military formation.

Their actions were clean and precise, not making any extra movements.

David waited; he wanted to see what they were capable of.

Bang!

The swords of the nine armored men suddenly slashed out in synchronization.

David didn't react; he watched the sword light move closer to him as if he hadn't expected the nine figures to launch an attack.

Outside, Lucas looked at this scene and shouted, "Don't tell me, he is frozen in fear."

Lucas wasn't going to let go of any chance he got to mock David today.

However, suddenly Lucas' blood ran cold; three pairs of eyes filled with coldness landed on his body. It didn't take a genius to figure out who those people were.

Lucas swallowed his saliva and immediately shut up.

The sword technique seemed to be intricately exquisite. The nine slashes collectively cut through the air and seemed to have fallen upon David's body.

However, just as the attack was about to land on his body, he slowly muttered, "Blink."

Immediately, his body disappeared and appeared behind the commander who was floating some distance away.

"Die!"

Without wasting any time, David launched a punch coated with purple lightning at the armored leader.

Bang!

The leader was blasted through the air like a cannonball, flying for a few meters before abruptly falling to the ground like a broken kite.

However, David wasn't paying attention to the leader anymore; his focus was on the nine remaining attackers.

The nine remaining attackers seemed to have frozen for a moment.

This is my chance!

David thought in his head and blinked once again, his eyes blazing with killing intent.

How audacious!

Did this place management think they could stop him with their new toys?

David's figure seemed to have appeared in nine places almost at the same time.

Bang!

When David's body came to a standstill, the remaining nine armored guards were as dead as they could be.

"Congratulations for clearing the second stage."

"You have been deemed eligible for the true legacy left behind by Bloodmoon Ancestor."

"True legacy stage one will begin in ten minutes. Please prepare yourself."

"Ha... what a true legacy." David muttered in annoyance. He wasn't one bit impressed by the true legacy or whatnot; it sounded more cumbersome.

Ten minutes passed in the blink of an eye.

"The true legacy stage one will begin in 3, 2... 1"

As the mysterious voice faded, the empty hall around David started to shake and vibrate, and in the next moment, his surroundings completely changed.

The empty hall was replaced by a grand blood sea, stretching as far as his eyes could see.

David seemed to have been suddenly assaulted by madness; the urge to go insane and destroy everything in his path wanted to take over him.

Just as he was about to completely lose his sense of self, the sun inside his spiritual space suddenly seemed to shine brightly for a moment, and all the discomfort that he was feeling vanished like a puff of smoke.

At this time, the gargantuan sea below his feet started to show signs of movement. The surface of the sea rippled, and a huge creature jumped out of it.

A demon at the peak of Nascent Soul Realm!

That's the first thought that David had.

The creature was headless, with half of its body missing, as if someone had cleaved its body into two equal parts with a sharp sword.

"You will be deemed to have cleared this stage if you survive for a minute against the Blood Cry Asura personally refined by Bloodmoon Ancestor himself."

This time, the mysterious voice patiently introduced the creature that David had to fight.

"What, i still had to fight!"

David muttered out loud. In his head, he was thinking the mental assault had been the first stage.

To think after surviving the deadly mental assault, he had to fight.

This Bloodmoon Ancestor really thought too highly of himself.

Heh! Again.

His thoughts were suddenly interrupted by the familiar interface.

[Regretfully! You lost one of your clients today. However, the Bank of Eternal Origin can never suffer a loss.

Even if he died, the client will have to pay back somehow; therefore, his soul was captured. You now have the following options. Keep in mind that you can only choose one:

1 - Extract Client's Crystallion of Life (Deadly combat, Grade - Uncommon)

2 - Extract Norman's memories from his birth till his death

3 - Any item that the client owned in his lifetime

4 - Do Nothing, let the compound interest do its thing and decide again when the Client dies in his next life

Please note that capturing the soul and imprisoning it requires a large amount of mana, because of which you only have one week left to make a choice.]

After going through the notification and not finding anything interesting, David clicked on the fourth option.

He once again focused on the Blood Cry Asura; the hideous creature stood still on its single leg without any problem.

David wondered how the monster balanced its body with such horrendous proportions.

Suddenly, David felt an oppressive, almost maddening aura lock onto his body.

Before he could even think, a red sword slash appeared in front of his figure at insane speed; the tremendous power contained in the attack split the air apart.

Almost instinctively, David blinked and avoided the disastrous blow by a hair's breadth.

The slash hit the blood sea below; a giant explosion sent the blood-red water flying upwards.
