So I became a witch

Taking the opportunity of a break, I simply chatted with Xia Luohua.

"You knew this was going to happen from the beginning, didn't you?" I said.

Xia Luohua was noncommittal: "This is also a good thing for you. After all, you have just entered this world of demon hunters for less than a year. It is always right to use this opportunity to get to know other demon hunters. Tomorrow they will be your enemies."

"Obviously everyone is a demon hunter?"

"Because competition is the nature of human beings, as long as there are people, disputes will not cease. The so-called life is a species that must rely on constantly eating other life to continue to survive."

"...Speaking of which, I was taken aback when you said something about the demon hunter family at the beginning, but when the fight really started, I realized, um, how should I put it, it's not as powerful as I imagined?"

"It's not that they're too weak, it's that you're too strong. Do you think there are many eighth-level mortals in this world? There are only a few in a generation, and only families at the level of the twelve clans can cultivate them. Ordinary demon hunters tend to start preparing to condense the star core and step into Xingyan when they reach the fourth level or above. However, this is another threshold. No one, even if they are lucky enough to step in, without a strong body as the backing, it is difficult for them to go too far on the road of star expansion. The probability of successfully condensing the star core at the sixth level of the mortal world is much higher than that at the fourth level, but it is almost the same Only one out of dozens of people can appear, which is why the number of Xingyan Zhe is so rare. However, the seventh and eighth levels of the mortal world are exceptions. Demon hunters who have reached this level, as long as they do not die, are almost They can all successfully step into Xingyan, and they will definitely become the best among them."

I nodded thoughtfully: "I see, then why don't those people just wait until the seventh and eighth order to condense the star core?"

The other end of the call was silent for a long time, and just when I felt a little guilty, Xia Luohua sighed heavily: "It's not that they don't want to, but they can't do it. The lifespan of demon hunters is much longer than that of ordinary people. Regardless of the consequences, if you forcefully use age to grind, as long as your talent is not ridiculously poor, you can almost grind to the sixth level of the mortal world, but that also means that the possibility of being promoted to Xingyan will be cut off forever. The matter of condensing the star core That is, the younger you are, the higher the success rate is, so after weighing your own talents and status, normal star-spreaders will give up continuing to practice upwards, and choose to directly condense the star core. The condensed star core is much larger. However, there is a sky between the seventh and sixth ranks of the mortal world. Only true geniuses can cross it, and it is absolutely impossible for ordinary people to cross it even if they die. Everyone knows the physical body. Being strong is related to the future road of stars, but not everyone can complete this mortal road."

"Hey? Is it so difficult? I think it's quite easy." I scratched my head and said.

"...Let me tell you that if you dare to say this in front of other people, you will definitely be mobbed and beaten. Normally speaking, to cultivate a mortal eighth-level existence, the resources spent are extremely huge Yes, only families at the level of the Twelve Clans can afford it. Of course, first of all, you must have such qualifications, otherwise, no matter how many resources you have, it will be in vain. Secondly, you must start training and practicing from a very young age. The three meals a day are all treasures of heaven and earth, all kinds of medicinal baths can make your skin wrinkle, and there are all kinds of Xingyan teachers to help you with classes and manage your work and rest. After more than ten years of such days, it is only It is possible to reach the eighth level of the mortal world before the age of 20. Once the limit of 20 years is passed, the success rate will drop greatly."

Chapter 22 Aftermath

"That said, I seem to be quite special."

"It's more than special, it's a freak among freaks. The effect of the power of the Void Eye on you is better than expected. Now you have actually touched the edge of Xingyan, right? ? Not that kind of preparation stage, but a realm that is really only half a foot in."

In fact, I have already reached Xingyan, but of course it is impossible for me to tell her the truth.

"Well, that counts?"

"It's really speechless... Do you know who set the record of achieving Xingyan the fastest in our history?"

"Who?"

"Clarence Casey Alfred, the No.30 second-generation Patriarch of the Alfred family, when he was active, even the descendants of the twelve clans were overshadowed by his light. Relying on his extraordinary talent, he forcibly entered the eighth level of the mortal world without relying on external objects, and achieved Xingyan at the age of 30. On that day, the entire Milky Way galaxy shone because of him. He is also a part of history. One of the few people recorded in the world who really entered the extreme realm, in his peak period, he could even suppress the incarnation of the witch by himself. He was dubbed the title of the strongest in the fourth era, and people at that time generally believed that He might really be able to take over the Star King's position and step into that unknown realm, but unfortunately, even if he was as strong as him, he eventually fell in that battle 400 years ago." Xia Luohua's voice was full of Feeling regretful, "Of course this is just a common understanding of the outside world. As you can see, that guy is still alive and kicking, but his strength has long been inferior to before. I'm afraid he won't be able to reach the peak again in this life."

"That housekeeper, is he so powerful?" The playboy-like guy appeared in my mind, and my heart was full of doubts.

However, as Xia Luohua said, he should be considered the strongest among the human beings I know.Not only has he reached the Forbidden Realm of God, but he has also reached the double extreme realm of Fanchen and Xingyan. If it hadn’t been for his accidental fall, with his talent, he might have really reached the triple extreme realm of the Road to the Holy Soul. The road to the ultimate divine glory is really only a hair's breadth away.It's a pity that fate is a man, and he still failed to achieve his ideal in the end. On the contrary, I, a latecomer, gained the upper hand.

"That's right, so even I was quite surprised when I found out that he wasn't dead. It's no exaggeration to say that that guy alone is enough to change the current situation in the entire demon hunter world. I don't know how many people care about him." For example, in the Star King incident this time, he is one of the key suspects."

"From your tone, it seems that you are completely sure that he is not the Star King. Have you asked?"

"It's not just him, every guy in our world who may become a star king has been confirmed repeatedly. You don't know how much movement is going on outside when you sleep at home. It's described as digging three feet It can be said to be light. Many old antiques that were considered to have fallen in the Great War were dug out. This is the first time I have seen those guys from the Twelve Clans who are nestled in their homes like ten thousand years. They will also show such a crazy side, and even issued a reward for it. Of course, it seems that it is not one of them in the final confirmation, that is to say, the Star King is likely to come from a different world other than us. This is why , Even those little demon hunter families did not hesitate to unite against Rutias Academy, just to get a share of it. The existence of the Star King is not only for the demon hunters, but also for the entire Star Clan. It's of great significance."

"...That's really amazing."

A drop of cold sweat dripped down my forehead, and only then did I understand how much things had happened in the world of demon hunters during my recuperation days.This also made me determined not to reveal my identity, otherwise the ghost knows how crazy those guys will show.It’s fine if you just worship me like a god, but if you really worship me like a living god, please forgive me. Although I inherited the Star King for no reason, I don’t have Lydias With such courage and strength, you have to do your best just to protect the people around you. If you really want me to lead the world, you might as well kill me.

"Although you are likely to break his record, it's better not to step into Xingyan too early. The deeper your accumulation in the mortal world, the farther you can go on the road of Xingyan in the future. Some Xingyan practitioners only regret that they have not been able to go further on the road of mortals after realizing that they have reached the end. If you plan to become Xingyan one day, absolutely, absolutely, you must tell me in advance?"

No, this one is already... Well, at worst, it's just a matter of playing some tricks to deceive her.

I vaguely agreed, while thinking of other things.Lighting up the stars with the dual power of the holy soul and the mortal world, the effect is far beyond my imagination. No wonder Clarence and Xia Luohua reminded me not to enter Xingyan too early.The path of the mortal world and the path of the holy soul, one for body training and the other for soul refining, seem to be very different, but in fact they are also closely related, and the power of Xingyan is the mediator between the two. When the three are perfectly connected as one, the power of Shenyao can be confirmed.

Although I was able to do this, it was thanks to the power of the Star Seal Sword.Otherwise, even if I have the eyes of the void, I don't know how long it will take to get the three of them together.The Star Seal Sword with the power called "Connection" is almost the same as the Witch's power, no, maybe even higher than that.Just relying on this piece of the Emperor's Weapon, I have enough ability to defeat the Nine Witches. It is hard to imagine what kind of power will be exerted after gathering all twelve pieces of the Emperor's Weapon?And what kind of terrifying existence is the Star Emperor who created the Emperor's Weapon?

The higher the person stands, the more he understands how small he is and how huge the distance from the sky is.At first, I thought that Star King was just a guy who stepped into Shenyao, at most on the same level as a witch, but now I find that I was wrong. Her realm may have surpassed everyone's imagination, even Shenyao Not enough to sum her up.I'm afraid, maybe only after collecting all twelve pieces of the Emperor's Artifacts, it is possible to get a glimpse of one or two.

The Star King and the God King, the twelve witches in the prophecy, and the catastrophe of the doomsday, and a new world line... There are so many things that I don't understand, and before I know it, I have fallen deeply into this world. In the quagmire, I can no longer escape.No, maybe I stepped into it from earlier.

Chapter 23 The Duelist

When I was chatting with Xia Luohua, everyone on the field seemed to have finally discussed the result, followed by a 23-year-old handsome guy, um, handsome guy, or at least the kind who can be the protagonist of a Hollywood movie Level, with a cold and arrogant personality coupled with a neutral face like a creamy niche, such a guy will definitely have many admirers in reality.

Why?You ask me how do I know?Well, it can be easily seen from the waves of voices from the women in the auditorium after he entered the arena.

I don't know why, although it was only the first time I met, this guy gave me a very uncomfortable feeling.Maybe it's the masculine instinct left in my heart, I'm innately hostile to this kind of guy who looks like a show-stopper, thinking that I have to become like this in order to save the world, but this guy is still there Talking to a bunch of women talking about opening the harem, there would be a kind of impulse to be angry, and wanted to beat him a good meal.

"...We should be meeting for the first time, right? But, you seem to be hostile to me?" The man looked at me with some surprise and said.

Well, don't mind, don't mind, just treat it as the ugly jealousy of men.

Before I could say anything, the handsome man continued on his own: "Well, but this is also a matter of course. From your point of view, you may think that I am a traitor. But, I have to do this." Do it, not only for my family, but also for the future of all demon hunters."

... It's not that big brother, what did you say in a jabbering way, why didn't I understand a word?Why do you seem to be a big devil who bears all the sins of mankind with great hatred and bitterness? In fact, I don't know you at all?

"Originally I didn't want to play, but it's a pity that there seems to be no one else who is your opponent except me." The handsome man said lightly, "The person who can beat Geli and Murphy so easily is not It might be a fluke. In other words, your strength is far above theirs, the seventh level of the mortal world... no, maybe even the eighth level."

The handsome man easily stated my realm, and in him, I also clearly felt a different aura from the two before, inexplicably there was a kind of confrontation with Xia Luohua when I was still weak feeling of time.

"Bazel...I didn't expect this guy to come too." Xia Luohua finally spoke, with a trace of dignity in her voice, "Be careful with him, this guy is different from other rotten fish and rotten shrimps. He is Luti A graduate of Yas Academy, and his graduation ranking was... second."

"Graduate?" I was taken aback.

"Well, and he was a graduate of the year before you entered school. It can be said that he is a senior of you and me. Originally, his grades should be enough to go to a special museum in another world for a permanent residence, but he refused the assignment and returned. I arrived at my own family. I am afraid that from then on, these demon hunter families have started planning to overthrow the academy." Xia Luohua sneered, and there was anger in the laughter, "These guys are really fighting It’s a good idea, from the mortal class that was limited at the beginning, to the restriction that the academy must exclude students who are studying and cannot be students from other families, and then play this trick by yourself, it’s really a good idea.”

Others besides Xia Luohua seemed to understand the corners and corners of it all at once, and looked deeply at the third patriarch sitting in the auditorium who had never said a word.

"So, is this guy strong?"

"... Very strong, he is one of the few guys who broke through the barriers of the mortal world and reached the seventh level. I have heard rumors that he even defeated Xingyan. Although he is not a high-level Xingyan practitioner, it can be seen .”

"Since it's so powerful, why is it still the second place in the academy?"

"...Because the first guy is a freak among freaks, and cannot be compared with common sense. I will tell you about this later. In short, all you need to know is that he is very strong, not to mention his combat experience. I need more. One last thing to be careful, the weapon that guy is good at... is the sword."

"It seems that you are ready." Bazel said lightly.It was only then that I noticed that under his dark blue windbreaker, there was indeed a slender scabbard tied to a belt. If nothing else happened, it seemed to belong to the predecessor of modern fencing, the swift sword popular in the European Middle Ages .It was only then that I suddenly realized what my inexplicable impulse was, not because of male hostility, but because of the obsession and enthusiasm for swords among swordsmen.

Ah, a little bit, some blood boiled up.

"Don't you care about your own weapons? In my opinion, you should also belong to the type of weapons?" Bazel asked lightly.

I thought about it, then shook my head: "Forget it, I don't need it now."

Bazel nodded: "Really? Then... it begins."

What arrived before his words was a silvery-white light. I hurriedly dodged. In the remaining position where I was, the air was torn apart, and the turbulence visible to the naked eye disturbed my sight, and then——

"--it's here."

I turned and kicked without thinking. With my strength, it was enough to kick an adult tens of meters away, but I only felt that the center of gravity on my feet was shifted. Ge blocked my kick, and at the same time, the blade with a length of more than one meter pierced my back mercilessly.

I sank down in a lower posture, and taking advantage of my size, I turned around and clamped his right hand with my feet, and my whole body was tightly locked on him.

That's it, it's over!

However, just when I was about to completely knock him to the ground, a piercing chill came from behind again, I let go of my body without hesitation, rolled on the spot and retreated to distance myself from him.

Bazel did not continue to attack, but unhurriedly raised his left hand, revealing another weapon that he had been hiding all along, which was also the source of the chill I felt just now.

Players who have played the Black Soul series are familiar with it. As a sharp weapon for rebound and execution, it also occupies a very high position in real duels-blocking daggers.

Ah, I should have understood it from the beginning.

This guy is even trickier than I imagined.

The image of Bazel holding a Western sword in one hand and blocking a dagger in the other gave me the illusion of traveling to the game world.But he is obviously much trickier than the game character. Bazel, who has reached the seventh level of the mortal world, can control his body almost perfectly, without worrying about the stamina bar and center of gravity.This weapon, known for its dexterity and sharpness, displayed a power beyond imagination in his hands.

Chapter 24 Loss

The first round of confrontation ended in a tie between the two sides.But in fact, both of us know that this is just a trial, and both I and the other party have already found out the other party's details during this trial.With little difference in physical fitness, Bazel, who has more personal experience and weapon skills, obviously has the upper hand.Unless I am willing to use the power above the mortal world or directly use the Void Eye, but that would be too bullying the weak, and secondly, it is easy to wake up the one that has been suppressed in my body and is finally suppressed. If the witch's right hand attracts her, the degree of trouble is not comparable to the small fight between the demon hunter family and Rutias Academy.

As for other reasons, some of them come from my own considerations.With the eyes of the void, my road has been going too smoothly. For others, it is like a bottleneck in the sky. For me, it is almost equivalent to non-existence. This has also led to my upgrade route. After sitting on the rocket, there is not much precipitation at all.The evil consequences brought about by this were fully revealed when fighting against the Nine Witches.After my only weapon, the Void Eye, was sealed, I didn't even have the strength to fight back against the newly awakened Nine Witches. After that, I spent thousands of years to prove Shenyao, relying on the two plus stars The power of Yin Zhijian barely defeated her.If it continues like this, it is impossible for miracles to happen every time, and I have to train myself even more.

This group arena is an opportunity for me.With the help of fighting against many different demon hunters, it is really suitable to hone one's most basic ability.

After slightly adjusting my breathing, I took the initiative to attack. Bazel also didn't evade, and rushed straight towards me.

I didn't choose to use the Void Eye, but relied on my own senses to move through the shadows of swords and swords, and used the fighting skills taught to me by Teacher Ariel as defense and counterattack.However, I failed to touch his side once, but the clothes on my body gradually became tattered.

The voices in the auditorium became more enthusiastic, and there were many beautiful girls in my strike zone, all of whom were cheering for Bazel.hateful!I really want to enjoy the feeling of being surrounded by girls and cheering!Thinking about it this way, I feel more resentment towards Bazel.

Bazel didn't think too much, he frowned, looked at me with a little hostility in his eyes and said, "Are you practicing with me?"

"Oh, have you been discovered? I'm really sorry." I said carelessly, not caring about my shirt that had become tattered.

"... Having reached this level at such an age, even compared to those monsters of the twelve clans, you are not far behind. However, while your youth is your greatest weapon, it is also your greatest weakness. You can It can be seen that you don't have much experience in duels with other demon hunters, so you will lose here."

"I don't care about winning or losing, but if you just let you win like this, my family will be very upset."

"It's a pity. If you are given a few more years, no one at the mortal level will be your opponent. But it is different now. Pay the price for your recklessness." Bazel said, He took back the tip of the swift sword and stood it in front of him.At the same time, the surrounding atmosphere began to disturb.

The speed of the wind has changed.

The meeting place, which was supposed to be completely isolated from the outside world, suddenly blew a long wind.It's not that the outside door or window is not closed, the source of everything is the power emanating from the man in front of me.

I knew, how could it be possible for a guy who had crossed the barrier a long time ago to have no progress over the years.

The invisible barrier expanded, enveloping me, him, and the entire venue.

"So, this is yours, the power of the domain." I sighed slightly.

No wonder he was able to defeat Xing Yan at the level of the mortal world. Sure enough, this guy is about to take that step.Except for Xia Luohua who had a special posture at that time, among all the mortals I have seen, there is no doubt that he should be the strongest among them.Obviously it's just mere mortals, but the strength and scope of the domain is not even weaker than some ordinary star-spawners.

"Welcome to my domain, feel honored, after all, there are not many people in this world who can live to see it." Bazel said lightly, his figure disappeared in place, and voices came from all directions.

No, it's not that he disappeared, but his speed is too fast.With the blessing of the domain, his speed surpassed the limit of the human body and moved towards a higher realm.

"It's called——The Poetry of the Wind."

A strong hurricane surrounded me, cutting my body in turn.I started to move, trying to get rid of this wave in the field, but no matter where I ran, this weird wind could catch up with me at a faster speed, and continued to attack me crazily with timing invisible to the naked eye body of.

My right eye began to turn slightly red, which was an automatic defense mechanism after sensing danger.No, now is not the time, I warned myself, forcefully suppressing that force.

No, you can't give up, you must observe more carefully and more carefully.

Since he is also a mortal, then he is definitely not invincible.

I must--

——The line of sight is reversed.

It was only then that I noticed that my body had been blown into the sky by the wind at some point.

Having lost any point of support, I was floating in the air without any resistance.

At the moment when my consciousness was blurred, I noticed, from the top of my line of sight, a silver light spot flashed past.

The voice said flatly in my ear: "This way, it's over!"

"Boom!" A huge silver light penetrated my body, smashing my whole body back to the center of the venue. The super hard floor made of unknown material cracked a huge fracture, and the sight in front of me became blurry. There was a blood-red blur, and after a long time, I felt the pain.

I opened my mouth, but I could only spit out a mouthful of blood.I lowered my head slightly, only then did I notice that the position of my chest a little away from my heart had been completely pierced, and I could even faintly see the beating lumps of flesh in the cavity.The body of the eighth-level mortal world, which was enough to catch a nuclear bomb burst at close range, was broken by Bazel's blow. One can imagine how terrifying the attack power of his move is.

Chapter 25 Kenshin

The body is like a guzheng with a broken string, no matter how the brain sends out instructions, it can only barely move its fingers at most.I can clearly feel that every part of my body has become tattered. If I were an ordinary person, even if I could still maintain consciousness, I would die completely due to internal bleeding.However, to me, such an injury is scary at most. With the eighth-level recovery power of the mortal world, it doesn't even take half a day to fully recover.

It seems that Bazel was merciful in the end and chose to seriously injure me without hurting my vitals.I underestimated him a little bit. I didn't expect that other than me, there would be someone who could display the power of Xingyan at the mortal level.Neither chose to use the Void Eye, nor opened the Void Domain in time, and the result of trying was to become this miserable appearance.

"Ahem... It hurts..." The cells in my body were frantically moving, repairing the broken tissue. When Bazel fell to the ground from a high altitude, I had barely regained the ability to speak.

A trace of surprise flashed in Bazel's eyes, but he immediately returned to his original cold and arrogant look: "You lost."

"Well, well, it's really beyond imagination. It seems that the demon hunter family is much more powerful than I imagined?" The broken muscle fibers reconnected while clearing out other star energy remaining in my body. This kind of outrageous repair is almost equivalent to directly grafting two blood vessels together by burning, and the severe pain caused my whole body to tremble uncontrollably.I stumbled and got up from the ground, and every time I moved, blood oozed from my skin. In the eyes of others, my appearance at this time was probably as scary as a moving blood clot.

Bazel looked at me coldly, but didn't make any further moves.At this time, I just barely regained my ability to move. To return to the original state, even with the eighth-level repair ability of the mortal world, it would take at least ten minutes. During that time, he was enough to kill him in the same way Killed me countless times.

"...I take back what I just said. Your will is stronger than I imagined. However, that's all. Give up. With your strength, it is impossible to break my Wind Domain. Although you have already left There, but I'm not ruthless enough to kill the younger generation, don't force me."

"How dare you say it... Well, let's end the temptation here, pain pain pain..." I turned my arms, trying to relax my tense body a little bit, the heavy blow near my heart was one aspect, On the other hand, other parts of my body are also more or less affected by the opponent's domain. The Xingyan energy representing the wind system is firmly embedded in my body. Every movement is like being cut by tens of thousands of blades together. Generally severe pain.

"I don't understand, you should be unable to move now, why stand up? You don't belong to any force, you should have no honor and dignity to protect, why are you still so persistent?" Ba Zell raised his eyebrows and asked.

"...who knows, I'm probably just not used to falling over." I responded.

Bazel's face changed slightly, ignoring his emotional changes, I continued on my own: "You are right about one thing, I am indeed not used to fighting with bare hands. And the weapons I use... ...Charleau!"

Responding to my shout, Charlotte threw something high from the audience.No one stopped her behavior, or she dismissed it, or was completely immersed in the game, and did not notice her action.

The long object landed straight in front of me and easily inserted into the white stage.Until then, no one could see clearly what Xia Luohua threw out.

It was a big sword, with unknown symbols engraved with sword inscriptions on the quaint sword body, it seemed to be dull due to lack of maintenance, and the bronze hilt was covered with green patterns, as if it had been there for a long time year.

I stretched out my hand, gently stroked the tattoo on the sword, and at the same time silently recited its name in my heart.

Ask Yuan.
