Chapter 1116: True Essence

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

Lu Li’s life had been quite extraordinary. But never once was he so angry and so frustrated. Nothing could occupy his mind other than anger and murdering intent.

All lives were equal!

Lu Li had always believed that all human beings were equal. Everyone has the right to live and nobody could take that away for no reason.

When someone angered you and you wanted to kill your enemies, that was no cause for much criticism. Civilians and warriors lived in two different worlds. No hatred between warriors should implicate civilians.

Compared with warriors, the civilians were vulnerable. A civilian to a warrior was like a mortal to an immortal. It was immoral and unreasonable to implicate the mortals when the immortals were in battle.

So many people were dying in front of Lu Li and they died because of him. He was the one that harmed the civilians and the warriors. He was the reason that so many people had died without a complete body left behind. He was the reason that so many people lost their families, so many children were without their parents and so many seniors lost their children…

Several children were crying into the dead bodies of their parents, some old people were kneeling on the ground, shivering and crying. The thought of those views cut Lu Li’s heart. It was bleeding.

Anger and murderous intent were burning as Lu Li looked at this hellish scene. The image of the Slayer slaughtering demons sprang to mind. Somehow, Lu Li felt inspired.

“Kill to stop killing. Kill for the truth. Kill for a peaceful world and to right the wrong!”

Lu Li kept murmuring those words. Previously, he was of the conviction that killing too many people was wrong, and that would be a great sin committed. He thought killing would let too much anger settle in his soul and his body. He would turn into a demon and he would never be able to pursue the truth and became an immortal thusly. Therefore, in recent years, Lu Li had been restraining himself from killing too many people, other than his mortal enemies.

Now, he realized, maybe… killing to seek the truth could also be a path to ascend. The Slayer was a perfect case at this point. In his name was the word “slay”. The Slayer’s blood was emitting killing intent. He must have ended many living beings.

To refrain from killing wouldn’t necessarily solve problems. On the other hand, the killing could. As long as all the enemies were ended and all the more powerful ones were finished, that should be the end of all troubles.

For instance, Lu Li killed his way up to the leader of the Heaven Reverse Universe, and that secured his position here.

“The true essence of the Slayer’s move is to kill to stop killing, the truth, for a peaceful world and to right the wrong. That is the true essence of the Slayer’s move, the origin!”

Lu Li kept mumbling as if he was insane. He suddenly closed his eyes. He was ignoring everything. The only thing on his mind was the move the Slayer did, the random move that cut demons in half and the move that leveraged strength from heaven and earth…

Lu Li once studied the Slayer’s move for a long time and he used it many times. Once, for several months, Lu Li waved his saber just so as to copy the Slayer’s move.

However, no matter how he racked his brain, he could not master the Slayer’s move. He gave it up several times and resumed more times. Eventually, after he used all three drops of the Slayer’s blood and months of futile effort, he abandoned the thought of learning the Slayer’s move.

At this moment, Lu Li finally knew that he had been pursuing the wrong path of learning the Slayer’s move. He had only been mimicking the superficial, but not studying the core. The Slayer’s move was not just an action, skill, or technique; it was a strange yet powerful truth.

How could Lu Li know how to use the move before he could see the truth, learn the essence contained in the Slayer’s move, and master the core?

It was something like Profound Meanings. Without mastering a certain Profound Meaning, a warrior could never figure out how to control the Profound Meaning or use it to release powerful skills no matter how one tried to copy the actions.

“I understand it now. Finally, I can see the truth!”

Lu Li felt like the dark clouds were cleared and he could see the sky. Though he had not achieved in-depth mastery of the Slayer’s move, he had made the first step. He should be able to release the Slayer’s move now.

Even…

Lu Li believed the move he could resort to now must be more violent than the move he could take when he had to leverage the Slayer’s blood. Before, Lu Li was only copying the action, the superficial because he was relying on the spiritual imprint in the Slayer’s blood. But now… he had known the truth!

“Charge—”

Lu Li shouted, like a dragon roaring into the sky and flew forward. He was not fast. However, as he moved forward, he emitted certain air which was gaining momentum.

“Well…”

Many warriors that were dashing toward Yan Zhen stopped. They were attracted by Lu Li involuntarily. Even Hu Lang, who was being smashed away for yet another time, was stunned.

“Young Master, he…”

Hu Lang observed Lu Li with despair. All of a sudden, his pupils contracted. He found Lu Li different and strange. This was no longer the Lu Li he knew. To be exact… Lu Li was no longer a person but a killer god, a machine that was built for killing.

“Crack, crack, crack~”

Many people were scared to see Lu Li like this. Someone’s teeth were chattering. They knew Lu Li would not kill them or harm them. Nevertheless, they felt scared out of instinct.

The murderous intent of Lu Li threw them into an extreme scare. This was not the kind of murderous intent that could come from a human being. It was strange. The murderous intent that could instill fear and that could frighten all enemies.

“What…?”

Yan Zhen’s eyes glowed in cold flashes. He had already noticed there was something wrong with Lu Li. Yan Zhen found Lu Li unfamiliar. At the moment, Lu Li made him panic as if he were faced with Yan Tiangang. Yan Zhen found himself losing his will to fight. He was terrified from the depths of his heart.

“How is that possible?”

Yan Zhen was shaken. How could he be scared by a warrior at the initial stage of the Semi-God Realm? This was weird.

A glint of anger rose in Yan Zhen’s heart. The Relic weapon in his hand glowed as he moved, trying to hack Lu Li in two pieces.

However, Lu Li was faster than Yan Zhen. It was true that Lu Li was flying slowly. But during the moment Yan Zhen was zoning out, Lu Li had shorted the distance. He did not resort to glamorous moves. All he did was a gentle move.

As his sword moved, Xuan Qi in heaven and earth swarmed out and froze the space Yan Zhen was in at once.

“How?!”

If Yan Zhen was only a bit stunned just now, he was greatly shocked at the moment. He realized he could not move at all. He watched as the ray of sword light moving closer and landed on him helplessly.

‘It’s okay. It is going to be okay? I have a Relic armor. I can stand it!’

Yan Zhen told himself. Lu Li’s move didn’t seem impressive. Yan Zhen believed the move could not harm him one bit.

“What?”

The next second, he found out he could not be more wrong!
