Chapter 176 Chapter 176 - Qi

That smile was terrifying from Aiden's point of view. It was as if Lucius had already anticipated everything.

However, Aiden didn't give up on his strike as he had activated his [Shadow Strike] which meant that his attack was supposed to be invisible. However, Aiden didn't know why, but he could already tell that his attack was bound to fail.

He just had a feeling and it seemed that he wasn't wrong because as soon as his dagger was arriving close to his neck, Lucius literally disappeared, just like what happened when he had first tried to attack him.

It was as if, he had some sort of defence for deadly attacks or something similar that made him disappear from Aiden's point of view.

Was it a technique or a skill?

Aiden wasn't sure, but he did know that it was ridiculously overpowered.

Then, as Lucius appeared behind Aiden, he didn't lose any time as he immediately went in for a strike toward Li Feng's heart.

Aiden literally had no way to block such an attack, so he had no choice but to get hit in the chest just like that.

'Am I really going to lose?' thought Aiden, as he could some blood starting to leave his body.

It seemed to be dead set, that Aiden would be losing this fight as everything had already told him so.

His skill [Mind of an Assassin] had pretty much told him that it was impossible to win as it hadn't seen any possible way of doing so. Then, he tried to use his other skill but it was completely rendered useless in an instant.

To be honest, Aiden had to admit that as of right now he was completely inferior to the man who was right on top of him smiling.

"What was your name again?" asked playfully Lucius, looking Aiden straight in the eyes.

'Fuck, I need to use my [Return Stone],' thought Aiden as he knew that he was about to die.

So, the only way for him to survive and not die right there was to consume his [Return Stone]

However, just as he was about to do so, a beeping sound resounded in his mind.

*BEEP*

[Qi is circulating in your body had an incredible rate.]

[Your body is being healed, strength is taking over your body.]

As Aiden read those words, he could feel that the hole which was in his chest started to slowly close.

This wasn't only because of the Qi, but also because of Aiden's regeneration skill which he had gotten in his first trial by killing the Cyclops.

But, the Qi was obviously playing a huge part or else Aiden would be dead right now.

However, there was still one big problem.

Lucius was currently on top of Aiden watching him being healed in real time was he just going to watch him being healed right in front of him?

Of course not, which is why Aiden immediately prepared himself to receive another attack bringing both of his arms in front of his chest.

He knew that it wouldn't protect much, but it was better than nothing, well... that was what Aiden thought as he got hit right where his hands were.

After being hit, Aiden started moving right away as he didn't want to stay under Lucius as this was the most dangerous position that he could be in.

That's why, he took his dagger in his hand and started waving it in front of his head, wanting Lucius to move back because of the incoming.

However, that didn't work and was still there on top of him.

While all this was happening, Aiden's gray energy continued to spread inside his body without slowing down at all, healing him pretty much everywhere.

Even in such a tough situation, its effects were simply incredible and the best part was that Aiden didn't even know how to use that energy yet, imagine what he would be able to achieve when he will.

'How can I get out of this situation?' thought Aiden as he kept thinking and thinking, trying ot find a way out.

However, he was simply stuck constantly regenerating under the attacks of Lucius who didn't hesitate to strike down at all.

"The Reaper, huh? Nice name, maybe I'll take it for myself," said Lucius out of nowhere as he kept striking down without remorse.

Then, as Aiden was about to activate his [Return Stone] as he didn't want to die for real, he heard a beeping sound.

And as usual, it seemed to be perfectly timed.

*BEEP*

[Your strength is increasing because of the amount of Qi circulating inside of your body. +100 Strength.]

Aiden saw this and instantly he grabbed one of the arms which were about to hit him once again.

He took a hit with a firm hold. One thing was sure Aiden wouldn't let go of that arm for anything in the world, he would hold onto it until Lucius dies.

Well... the person he was impersonating as Aiden didn't know what would happen to Lucius if he were to fail a trial.

Feeling the strength course through his body, Aiden felt invincible like no one could attain him.

Then, he slowly stood up as he grabbed Lucius's other arm lifting him up as if he was nothing more than a sheet of paper.

"What did you say? Can you repeat it?" asked Aiden, as he could feel the rage from within him.

He knew that some of his emotions were starting to take over as he could feel that he was slowly losing himself in this fight.

The only thing that he had on his mind was to get revenge.

But the revenge of what?

Aiden didn't even know, he just knew that he had to take revenge and kill that person which Lucius was currently impersonating.

Then, as the rage kept getting stronger and stronger, the eyes of Aiden closed for an instant before opening again right after.

Something had changed, but even Lucius didn't know as he was being destroyed right at this moment.
