Cultivation Through Artifacts

Chapter 358 - Forceful Improvement (1)



When the calm but loud laugh suddenly appeared from the side, Khal's eyes snapped wide open and without wasting a single second he used his movement technique to appear a hundred meters away from the spot where he just was a second ago!

"Oh? I recognize that technique! Although it is just a weak copy compared to the one back in the Fifth Realm, that is definitely the Thunder Step Art, a powerful movement technique capable of turning any kind of movement into thunder!" the calm voice appeared once again, but this time from another direction.

'Where is he? I can't see him!' Khal turned his head left and right, but no matter where he looked or how hard he tried to see the individual who just spoke, he found nothing.

Not even the smallest trace even though he has already activated his Heaven's Eye, hence giving him the ability to see literally everything in more than a mile radius!

'Is he using some kind of ability to conceal himself and avoid my detection? But then...' as Khal reached that point, suddenly his face paled and subconsciously tilted his head to the side.

Swish!

BAM!

Khal watched with shrunk pupils as a huge building with a height of at least a hundred meters in the far distance exploded into huge chunks of debris before each of those pieces were shredded and turned into dust from the powerful shockwave that appeared afterward!

If it were not for his Heaven's Eye which was capable of slowing down any movement in his sight drastically, he wouldn't have been able to dodge that attack just now, not even with his invisible armor on!

That single attack alone could have easily pierced right through his armor before turning him into a bloody mist without giving him the slightest chance to utter a single word!

"Oh? It seems those eyes not only can enhance your sight but even your reflexes! Haha, this is getting even more interesting than I have first believed!"

Hearing the voice again despite not seeing the owner of it, Khal swallowed nervously before his face turned serious and looked in the direction from where the previous attack just came from.

"Who are you? Why do you want to kill me? I don't remember offending you in the slightest so can't we just forget everything that happened and talk like two intelligent beings?"

Silence descended on the surroundings after Khal finished talking, making Khal believe his words achieved reaching the ears of the mysterious individual who assaulted him and succeeded in convincing him, but unfortunately, that is not what happened.

"Talk? Sure, we can talk... After you have successfully avoided 2,732 more of my attacks in exchange for the damage you have caused to all the buildings in my domain!"

"What do y-." Khal wished to say something but was abruptly silenced as three attacks similar to the previous one appeared before him out of thin air, each targeting one of the lethal points on his body such as his brain, heart, and abdomen!

"Fuck!" Khal cursed out loudly and without a second thought activated his Lightning Step to avoid the three attacks that threatened to take his life away.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

BOOOM!

The place where he just stood a few moments ago turned into a seemingly bottomless pit with a radius of ten meters while a huge pillar of a tornado with a height akin to a skyscraper rose high into the sky!

Khal watched this sight with eyes filled with terror, but only for a short amount of time before he was forced to move once again, dodging another three wind bullets that targeted his body in the same manner as the previous three!

Swish! Swish! Swish!

BOOOOM!

Swish! Swish! Swish!

BOOOOM!

One by one, Khal dodged all the attacks with precise maneuvers that were sent to take his life, but even then he couldn't help but feel that he was still just toyed with, almost as a cat would with a mouse before trapping it and killing it once and for all!

'He is completely playing with me! He plans to tire me out before killing me!' Khal thought to himself once he realized the mysterious individual's plan, thus his face quickly turned serious while his eyes flickered with a hint of firm resolution.

"Then I will show him I am not someone who can be tossed around that easily!" Khal hissed through his clenched teeth coldly and after avoiding another wave of wind bullets that only brought destruction to the area where they crashed into, he pressed his feet firmly against the ground and dashed into the distance, exactly from where the attacks had been fired from!

RUMBLE!

The sound of thunder appeared every time when Khal's body blurred and vanished before reappearing hundreds of meters away, avoiding several wind bullets in the process like a dragon in a raging storm!

"Trying to approach me because you realized it was only a matter of time before you will be overwhelmed and killed by my attacks?" the voice appeared in the air just like how it always did, but this time it carried a kind of surprise that was hard to notice but was obviously there.

"Very well, then let me see what you will do with these!" the very moment the voice vanished, close to fifty wind bullets appeared around Khal out of thin air, targeting all the essential parts of his body from every possible angle with speed twice as fast as previously!

Watching this with his Heaven's Eyes active, all the color left Khal's face as he realized this was a checkmate for him this time. He was trapped and no matter where he tried to look, there was not even a single point around him where he could run through without getting hit by at least one of the many wind bullets that were capable of turning massive buildings into dust upon impact!

'I'm dead....' Khal thought weakly as he watched the messengers of death falling down onto him like hellfire.
