The Tale of the Devil Sword

Chapter 99: Conquer-11(i)

Slowly Qi started gathering around the place Kylo was standing at. And his lips curled up into a smile.

He got what he was waiting for. Slowly his cultivation base started rising once again.

Late stage fourth step Nascent Soul.

Fifth Step Nascent Soul.

Sixth Step Nascent Soul.

And all of this was witnessed by the little snake whose jaws dropped in shock.

He could not help but be baffled.

After all what he had known was that only Kylo could enter the formation and retrieve the orb.

But now he was finding it hard to believe.

[What if he said that because of the rise of the cultivation due to formation.]

Nigel could not help but be suspicious. While he was thinking Kylo broke through seventh stage.

Nigel subconsciously gulped when he noticed that even though the rise was slowing down it was nowhere near stopping.

Just when he was beginning to get more and more suspicious of his doubts he shook his head.

[After all, I can anytime confirm it with Ave. There is no way he would say such foolish lies.]

That's why he suppressed his dubiety. And Kylo broke through Seventh Step middle stage Nascent Soul.

Only that was when the energy gathering around the area slowly started to drop.

[Or should I say, energy inside the formation was emptied.]

Kylo thought to himself. Yes that's right!

The first time it was difficult for Kylo to find out. But now he knew.

The reason his Cultivation base rose everytime he came near the formation was because the formation somehow accepted him as his master.

Yes master! That's the feeling he got both the time.

And the energy gathered inside the formation was fused with Kylo's spirit. And that's how his stage increased.

Shaking his head Kylo involuntarily clicked his tongue.

[I could not reach the late stage.]

Yes, Kylo hoped to breakthrough to late stage of

Seventh Step Nascent Soul.

"*sigh*" [Nothing is easy] Kylo let out a helpless sigh before going towards the table.

[As expected....]

The table and the orb both were similar to what he had first seen.

Blue colored table made of cold steel which was covered with various runes

A purple colored orb was placed on top of the table.

Without any hesitation he stored both the orb and the table inside his space ring.

Then he started walking towards the little red snake.

After reaching near him Kylo stretched his hand.

Nigel being a smart guy understood what he wanted. He poured all treasures he got along the passageway.

Kylo's lips twitched.

[This miser...]

He was expecting him to hand the spatial ring. But he just poured all those valuable treasures like he was dumping some garbage.

Nigel had a smirk on his face.

[This guy definitely did it on purpose.]

Kylo could only complain inwardly.

He stored all the treasures inside his spatial ring.

As he was about to go inside the sword once again Nigel called out

"Kylo..."

"Hmmm?" Kylo turned back.

He could see the little snake was opening and closing its mouth continuously, as if hesitating to ask something.

Kylo frowned a little. Even if they didn't converse much, they both had an idea of each other's personality.

[It is not like him to hesitate.]

[Does he want me to beat him?]

[Has he finally awakened his masochist side to the fullest?]

Kylo shuddered thinking Nigel asking him to 'beat' him. Of course he knew he was thinking nonsense.

[But it is my mind I can think whatever I want.] Kylo justified inwardly.

If Nigel knew about his thinking process maybe he would start a life and death match with him on the spot regardless of his injuries.

Anyways luckily Nigel didn't knew about it.

Nigel continued,

"On my way to here, I collected a Seven Petal Ice Venom Suppress. A five hundred year Ice Venom Suppress."

He stopped and looked at Kylo. Even before he spoke Kylo already had an idea what he wanted to ask.

And with this his guess was right.
