A Farmer's Journey To Immortality

How dare this fleeting feeling of fear rise in a true sword cultivator’s chest?

It had to be addressed in the most violent way possible in order to keep his Sword Mind and Sword Momentum from being affected in the long run.

Varesh could never have imagined that a native cultivator would make him confront his own mortal limits.

It had struck at his pride as a true sword cultivator.

For someone like Varesh, that humiliation was more difficult to tolerate than the wound itself. This was because it affected his sword cultivation path.

For his sword cultivation path to be grand and unstoppable, he needed to be the very best among his peers. Only then could he have a fate with the Nascent Soul of the sword cultivation realm.

Thinking like this, his Sword Intent surged like an enraged beast. He was preparing to unleash all his anger through his sword.

Meanwhile—

Aksai was already thinking about his next move.

Damn it. Even after doing everything right, I still missed.

That girl Naisha told me I may sometimes experience instances involving fortune and possibilities of heroes of the world because of my Fate Anomaly status. But it seems she was merely trying to get to my good side so that I could offer her more 3rd Order resources.

If not, why do I have to struggle so much killing my enemies? Shouldn’t I be able to dominate my peers and even manage to deter those a level above me with my three distinct cultivation paths merged into one?

He sighed and glanced at the wound on Varesh’s chest.

The Void Arrow had missed. It had indeed been extremely close but unfortunately... too close didn’t count.

Aksai couldn’t help feeling a little disappointed.

Still, I can’t complain. These imperial cultivators are not to be underestimated. Especially a true sword cultivator like him. It’s already good that I managed to last this long against him.

Aksai’s gaze became calm. His original plan had never been to defeat Varesh in a straightforward duel.

There’s no reason to go through a protagonist’s moment to shine and obtain a chance to advance amid countless possibilities of defeat and death.

Aksai had already learned enough. As such, he simply chose to.... ran away.

Varesh’s laughter stopped.

His expression froze.

"...What?"

Aksai didn’t even look back, retreating as quickly as possible. His golden Aurous Qi erupted beneath his feet to enhance his movement-type Spirit Spell already put to good use. His Spirit Essence surged.

Varesh stared at the fleeing figure.

For a moment, he couldn’t understand what he was seeing. This guy had just acted like he wanted to experience the depths of Sword Dao. He had stood before a genuine sword cultivator despite being covered in wounds.

He had fought until his body resembled a bloody corpse.

And now—

He was running away?

"Where the fuc*k are you running off to? Fight me if you are man enough."

Aksai didn’t care about Varesh’s words. A genuine late-stage Lord-level sword cultivator was not someone he could defeat through a frontal clash.

The weakened isolation layer suddenly trembled.

Then—

RUMBLE!

Demon Vines surged from the ground.

The Array Eye dedicated to Varesh’s isolation layer had recovered enough to resume functioning.

Countless vines erupted between the two cultivators.

They twisted together like enormous serpents, creating a natural barrier between Varesh and Aksai.

Varesh’s expression became even colder.

"Same old tricks. Do you think they are enough to save you?"

His black Natal Sword trembled.

SHING!

A Sword Shadow flashed toward the Demon Vines. But before Varesh could pursue, the Demon Vines surged again. More vines emerged from beneath the ground.

The isolation layer had begun functioning normally once more, preventing Varesh from immediately chasing Aksai.

Aksai took advantage of every second. As he retreated, he reached into his storage ring. His fingers closed around something precious.

A talisman appeared between them.

It was an exquisite talisman covered in dense Intent runes.

The moment it appeared, a powerful Intent fluctuation spread outward.

Aksai didn’t hesitate.

He slapped it on his chest and let it turn into a healing light before dissolving into his body. A warm force immediately spread through his meridians.

His Druidic vitality surged.

Fresh flesh began growing over his exposed bones and his damaged muscles regenerated. The wounds covering his body rapidly began closing.

But more importantly, the healing force directly targeted the Sword Intent embedded within his body.

Vmmm!

The Sword Intent that had been tearing through his flesh suddenly encountered an opposing force. The healing Intent wrapped around it and began expelling it.

Aksai let out a slow breath. If these had been ordinary injuries, his Druidic powers would have been enough. Given enough time and sufficient Spirit Essence, he could regenerate even severe physical damage.

But these weren’t ordinary injuries. Varesh’s Sword Intent had invaded his body. It had entered his flesh, meridians, and internal organs. It continued destroying his body even as his regenerative abilities attempted to repair it.

Trying to heal normally would have been like repairing a wall while someone continued tearing it down.

That was why Aksai had been forced to use the precious talisman.

Only an Intent-based healing talisman could directly contend with the Sword Intent inside his body.

Hummm...

The golden healing light spread deeper.

The Sword Intent within Aksai’s body began weakening.

Aksai’s disrupted Spirit Essence circulation gradually stabilized.

His breathing became smoother and his damaged meridians began repairing themselves. The flesh around his exposed ribs regenerated within a blink of an eye.

Aksai didn’t waste time and immediately summoned the three Lords. They were already present in the Emerald Cove Island’s core region and waiting for Aksai’s orders.

These three Lords were none other than Kalingoot’s current Three Supremes– Loken, Jina, and Naisha.

Loken had already surrendered himself to Aksai (Chapter 658). Jina and Naisha had achieved their breakthroughs into the Lord realm only recently (Chapter 763).

Although these Lords were only in the initial stages of the Core Formation realm, they could help Aksai by taking command of three Array Eyes.

Since battling solo was akin to a suicide, Aksai had no shame in ganging up on Varesh.
