Cultivation Through Artifacts

"Welcome back."

When those words were heard by Khal a sense of warmness swept through his body while his arm around Miss Mary tightened even more; he was glad that he was able to arrive just in time.

Hugging each other for a few more seconds, Khal finally let go of Miss Mary's waist and took a step back.

"Young Master, it's nice to see you safe and sound." Dan, who watched everything from the back showed a calm smile and he walked closer.

"It's good to see you too." Khal showed the same friendly smile as Dan before his complexion turned serious and turning back at Miss Mary he said, "Aunty, although I cannot describe how happy I am that all of you are safe and no matter how much I wish to stay, my time is running low."

"What do you mean by that?" feeling the seriousness in Khal's voice Miss Mary too became serious and asked.

Khal sighed and quickly began to explain everything that happened with him, obviously leaving out the part where he almost died under the hands of Old Eye; the last thing he wished now was that his aunty and Liza would freak out and throw a tantrum.

However, what Khal didn't know was that even if he would have told them, they wouldn't have said a thing as the moment he reached that part in his story, Miss Mary, Liza, and Dan have already become so numb from the waves of shock that they failed to react at the things they have heard!

They just stood in one place, their eyes wide as saucers and jaws dropped right before their knees from nothing but the pure stupefaction!

Only after several minutes later was Miss Mary capable of regaining her senses, and although with still deep shock, she asked, "Are... Are you really telling us the truth? I hope you don't just wish to pull our legs just for some stupid fun."

Khal, however, just shook his head and said calmly, "I am not. I really have ascended into the Second Realm and what I said was the truth; I have at least a day before I am forced to go back."

Miss Mary and Liza looked at each other speechless, trying to say something but finding that they were unable to; what they were told just now was completely out of their expectations and still needed a little bit of time to digest everything.

"And what do you wish to do now... Under a single day?" Dan suddenly asked, his voice holding deeper respect and also a slight hint of fear when talking with Khal that was not there before.

Although Miss Mary and Liza didn't understand it or were still under the deep shock where they were unable to understand it yet, Dan clearly knew that the one before him was no longer a young boy who anyone can mess with casually but instead a monster!

A beast disguised in human skin!

Ascended into the Second Realm where he broke through for Cultivation Stage under a little bit less than two months and even found a way to descend into the First Realm? Was this some kind of a bad joke or was he just having a bad dream?

Anyone that had a little bit of common knowledge would know that cultivation inside the Second Realm was way more difficult than in the First Realm, but not because of the many foreign races that existed there but because of the difficulty to break through into the next Cultivation Stage!

According to records, one needed several years just to reach the Fourth Cultivation Stage before having to struggle a few more decades to reach the Fifth Cultivation Stage! What's more, it was also possible that one couldn't even break through the Fourth Cultivation Stage and become an Ascender, given just how fricking difficult it was to reach it!

Yet, a young boy who was not even 20 years old, succeeded in accomplishing the impossible and became a Limit Breaker in less than two months just after ascending into the Second Realm!

What did that mean? It meant he was no longer a human but an anomaly, a never-before-seen monster that defied laws and rules in their entirety!

When Khal heard Dan's question, his eyes turned sharp and a cold grin emerged on his face; just from that alone, it was obvious what he will do.

"Isn't it obvious already? I will make them regret everything they have done until now and demolish them from existence, that is what I will do!"

Inside the Ourvi Family's headquarters, Anred sat before a relatively huge table, his complexion holding a rather stiff and dark facade. Before him, a man in a black coat that covered every part of his body kneeled, his face lowered to the ground.

"My Lord, there is still no any news abou-"

"I DON'T CARE IF THERE ARE ANY OR NOT, I SAID FIND HIM SO FUCKING DO THAT!!!" yelling from the top of his lungs with pure anger, Anred slammed his fist on the desk in front of him, causing it to form deep cracks on its expensive-looking surface in an instant.

"I-I... I have understood. I will continue trying my best."

"Continue trying your best? Continue trying your best!" Anred asked loudly and continued, "Is this what you call your best? Don't you feel any shame by stating that arrogance of yours? Especially in front of me?"

The man immediately lowered his head, his body slightly trembling from the pressure falling on his body. He wished to say something to calm Anred's wrath, but just as he was ready to speak, a great tremor shook the whole mansion, surprising both him and Anred!

"Who dares to cause a ruckus at my home?" Anred stood up as he shouted akin to a beast, his mood obviously the worst at the moment as his eyes were slightly bloodshot and veins were bulging at the side of his neck.

BOOM!

And exactly the very next second of Anred's yell, almost as if life wished to give an answer to his previous question right away, the huge jade wall in front of him exploded into small chunks of debris, revealing a young figure that held nothing but a golden scythe in one hand and a severed head in the other!

"Now I understand why that trash had such a bad temper. Like father like son, huh?" walking inside the room while saying those words indifferently, Khal casually tossed the head in his hold onto the desk in front of Anred, immediately painting it into the color of deep crimson and filling the room with the foul smell of iron and blood!
