Somewhere in the "Kill" world.
Xie Tian was as quiet as a rock as he sized up a killing spirit from thousands of miles away in Silence.
The killing spirit was also a black shadow, but he found many differences when he observed it down to the finest detail.
A faintly discernible red light would occasionally flash past the black shadow's body. It was very fast, like a scarlet murderous aura.
The black shadows he had killed previously had a scarlet murderous aura in the deepest part of their bodies, never appearing.
"Not only that, these black shadows …"
After observing for a full six hours, Xie Tian finally confirmed that these black shadows were no longer muddle-headed. They seemed to have a trace of intelligence.
Just this point alone showed that these black shadows were stronger than before.
To him, this was a good thing.
A stronger scarlet murderous aura could allow him to have a deeper understanding of the cultivation technique of the owner of the murderous aura.
But correspondingly, these black shadows would bring him greater danger.
This danger came not only from the erosion of the scarlet murderous aura, but also from the faint hostility.
"These black shadows with some intelligence seem to be searching for something …"
Another six hours passed. The black shadows were still searching aimlessly, but to no avail.
After thinking for a while, Xie Tian left quietly and found the second black shadow.
A day passed. The black shadow was still searching, but to no avail.
It was the same for five consecutive black shadows. Xie Tian believed that ever since they were born, they seemed to have been searching, but to no avail.
"Could it be that they are also searching for the faint hostility …"
He had a guess, but he still needed to verify it.
Xie Tian took a deep breath and started to set up the trap. Then, he activated the Evil Heart.
The moment the Evil Heart swept past the black shadow, the black shadow suddenly turned its head and burst out with a soaring murderous aura. It instantly appeared in front of Xie Tian.
Xie Tian was about to attack when he saw the black shadow stop outside the trap.
Seeing this scene, Xie Tian's heart trembled. Before he could dodge, a sword light ignored spacetime and pierced through his left arm.
His left arm was cut off at the shoulder.
Xie Tian was expressionless. Using the opportunity of turning, he grabbed his left arm that was about to fall to the ground and threw it at the black shadow.
Bang!
His left arm exploded in the air. Dense taboo power surged out, and the black shadow was sent flying.
Bang bang bang bang bang …
Xie Tian suddenly appeared behind the black shadow. He no longer fought as fiercely as before. Instead, he chose to attack fiercely.
Half an incense stick's worth of time …
One joss stick's worth of time …
Fifteen minutes …
An hour later …
Six hours passed.
The black shadow had used up a lot of energy.
Xie Tian had already withdrawn himself from the ferocious 30m battle he fought against Zuoqiu Heng and the god, and he was breathing heavily while feeling shocked in his heart.
This was the first time he had encountered an enemy that he could not outlast.
"The strength of this black shadow is at least twenty times stronger than the previous one. Moreover, it's even more proficient in finding openings and killing with every move …"
Without giving Xie Tian any time to rest, the black shadow attacked.
He immediately began to deal with them.
After the time it takes for half an incense stick to burn, with the help of the Three Selves' abnormal recovery method, Xie Tian was back to his peak state, and the fierce battle began again.
And so it repeated.
After a total of six fierce battles, which took a total of forty hours, he finally exhausted the black shadows.
Puff!
Xie Tian's right fist smashed into the black shadow's body, and then his fist turned into a claw. He didn't hesitate to pull out the essence of the black shadow — scarlet killing intent.
When the scarlet killing intent left the body, Xie Tian's bloody pupils constricted.
"Not a trace, but a strand!"
Not only was this strand of scarlet killing intent thicker than before, the aura it emanated was even stronger!
Xie Tian didn't give himself time to think, and he opened up a crack in the extremely nervous Evil Body …
Swoosh!
The scarlet killing intent entered his body.
Bang!
The Evil Body instantly turned into a black shadow.
The black shadow was like a thick fog, and it revolved rapidly as if it was brewing something.
The evil energy within Xie Tian's body was chased like a dog by this strand of scarlet killing intent, and it fled in panic.
The Evil Body had completely fallen.
Xie Tian was about to become a true black shadow killing spirit.
However, his sea of consciousness was completely calm, and it seemed to be sensing and anticipating something.
Bang!
In less than two seconds after the scarlet killing intent entered his body, Xie Tian's ears exploded like thunder.
"It's here!"
At the same time, Xie Tian's calm heart suddenly skipped a beat …
A strong hostility suddenly descended from the sky!
The scarlet killing intent that was wreaking havoc in the Evil Body suddenly raised its head and roared silently!
The arrival of the hostility and the roar of the scarlet killing intent caused Xie Tian's mind to be in a trance. The guess that he had once had appeared in his mind once again.
But he immediately shook his head and dispelled this guess, and continued to observe the scarlet killing intent's reaction.
The reaction was as he expected, because of the appearance of the hostility, the scarlet killing intent no longer cared about bullying the Evil Body, and immediately started to confront the hostility.
At this point, Xie Tian finally let out a long sigh of relief.
"Done!"
His plan was simple.
Simple to the point of madness.
Although the scarlet killing intent was strong, but with the restraint of the hostility, he still had a chance to comprehend the cultivation technique of the owner of the killing intent.
"Although the speed of expelling the scarlet killing intent will be slower, but as long as it's not too much, I can endure it …"
Xie Tian calmed his heart, and carefully comprehended his own state, before he was completely at ease.
Next, he maintained a sliver of clarity, and turned into a black shadow, silently comprehending the cultivation technique.
After 10 days, the scarlet killing intent was 60% removed, and he set off again to find the second black shadow killing spirit.
When he killed the second killing spirit, 99% of the scarlet killing intent had been removed, and the remaining 10% was also the essence of the scarlet killing intent.
But this essence, be it in quality or quantity, was far better than before.
As the second killing spirit's scarlet killing intent entered his body, Xie Tian felt the hostility grow stronger, and helped him to suppress the erosion of the scarlet killing intent.
Time passed.
When the tenth killing spirit's scarlet killing intent entered his body, Xie Tian, who had always been courageous, had a rare thought of giving up.
He was not afraid of the unimaginable pain that the scarlet killing intent would bring to the Evil Body, even if he looked haggard from resisting the pain.
What he was worried about was what was helping him.
"Hostility …"
He could not help but mutter the two words, shivering. Xie Tian fell into silence.
The hostility grew stronger and stronger.
From Kill Mountain.
From Kill Lake.
From every bit of immortal spirit killing intent.
From every corner of the world.
He did not know if letting this hostility grow was a good thing or a bad thing.
In the end, the sense of danger caused by the lack of trump cards won him over retreating.
"My understanding of this cultivation technique is close to 80%. It is not worth it to give up now …"
Xie Tian took a deep breath and stood up after feeling the scarlet killing aura essence in his body. He continued on his unpredictable fortuitous encounter path.
Just like that, three months passed.
On this day, when Xie Tian found that the new killing spirit could no longer help him, the Killing Star Token in his bosom finally moved.
"It has been almost a year …"
After calculating the time, Xie Tian became more vigilant.
"Just what kind of opportunity does the Slayer Venerable want? It took so much time just to find out …"
He could not forget that Lord Killer Tai Wei was someone who could fight with Shen Wushuang.
The Killing Star Token trembled for ten breaths before stopping.
Xie Tian reached in with his Divine Sense and carved out a path in his sea of consciousness.
This path was the information given by Lord Killer Tai Wei.
"Immediately put down all your opportunities, do not deviate from the path, do not leak any aura, and rush over as fast as you can!"
