Realizer of Death : The Reaper

Time back to when Gu Yuxuan swallowed the Qi explosion pill, Wang Ruyue and Huang Yuxin suddenly opened their eyes after feeling the heaven and earth aura around them dry up as it flowed and gathered in a single spot.

"What is going on?" Huang Yuxin said in confusion and looked at the location where Tenku had fought Gu Yuxuan. She felt that the heaven and earth aura in the area was pouring into that place.

"I don't know. But I felt that one's cultivation base suddenly increased drastically and attracted the aura of heaven and earth here." Wang Ruyue shook her head and followed Hung Yuxin's gaze.

"Attracting the heaven and earth aura in this area? Did that person use it to break through the higher realms? Was it Tenku or Gu Yuxuan?" Huang Yuxin turned her eyes to Wang Ruyue and asked.

"I thought it wasn't Tenku because I felt an evil aura from that person." Wang Ruyue said solemnly. Although her cultivation base is the same as Huang Yuxin's, she is much more sensitive to Qi and genesis power than the latter.

"In that case, the person attracting the heaven and earth aura here is Gu Yuxuan!? If he wanted to use that much Qi to break through, then his current cultivation base would be..." Huang Yuxin said in a trembling voice, and she was afraid to continue her words. If their guess is correct, Tenku will face a strong opponent. This made Huang Yuxin worry about his situation.

"Yes. Gu Yuxuan's current cultivation base is probably the innate realm." Wang Ruyue continued Huang Yuxin's sentence. Her face was pale because she felt the same way as that girl. Wang Ruyue hoped that what she thought was wrong and Gu Yuxuan's cultivation base was only at half-step innate.

"Then what should we do!? Do we have to follow Tenku to that place!?" Huang Yuxin held Wang Ruyue's hand and said frantically.

Wang Ruyue was silent for a while and didn't answer Huang Yuxin's question directly. Her mind is very complicated now. On the one hand, she wanted to go to that place because she was worried about Tenku, but on the other hand, she didn't want to disturb his battle. After thinking about that, Wang Ruyue sighed and opened her mouth.

"No. We better stay here. If we go to that place, we will only burden him. You don't want him to be distracted in battle by our appearance, do you? Gu Yuxuan could use that opportunity to land a fatal blow on him or use us as hostages." Wang Ruyue said in a weak voice. She was sad when she thought about her helplessness.

"You are right. We should stay here. If we were stronger, we might be able to fight alongside him. Unfortunately, we are not that strong." Huang Yuxin clenched her fists tightly and felt disappointed with herself.

"You don't need to feel so disappointed. We can become much stronger in the future. Aren't we both cultivators and Realizers with quite the potential? With rigorous training, we will be able to become much stronger than we are now and narrow our gap with him. Even though we can't be as strong as Tenku, at least we don't become a burden.

But for now, we can only believe in Tenku and pray for his victory. Only then can we leave this place, and we have a chance to become stronger." Wang Ruyue patted Huang Yuxin's shoulder gently and smiled to comfort her.

"Yeah. We can only do that now. But we can't continue our recovery or cultivate in this place because the aura of heaven and earth here is disturbed." Huang Yuxin nodded at Wang Ruyue's words. She secretly swore in her heart that she would double the portion of her training and try to get strong faster if they could leave that place safely.

"We can't recover or cultivate, but we can watch their battle from here. We will be fine in this place because we are quite far from their battle location, and there are these creatures who will protect us." Wang Ruyue said and patted one of the giant centipede's legs. She felt warm when she remembered Tenku had sent that creature to protect them.

"I didn't think about this before because I was focused on recovering. Is this the ability of his Phantasmal Object? It looks powerful and scary, especially the leg resembling a scythe." Huang Yuxin asked and followed Wang Ruyue's actions. Even though she was a little afraid of insects, she dared to touch the centipede's leg.

"I thought so because I felt the same aura from the scythe in Tenku's hand and this giant centipede." Wang Ruyue replied.

"But how can Tenku have multiple Phantasmal Objects? Isn't that just a legend, and no one can awaken two Phantasmal Objects at once?" Huang Yuxin had heard of the legend of a person who could awaken multiple Phantasmal Objects. But she couldn't believe it because no one in the China Realizer organization in the present or past could do that.

"I don't know. I will ask about this matter to my grandfather. He might be able to answer that question." Wang Ruyue was sure her grandfather knew why Tenku could awaken two Phantasmal Objects.

(Until now, I knew very little about Tenku. But if we manage to survive from here, I will learn more about him and try to get to know him better)

Wang Ruyue clenched her fists and showed a determined face.

"Yes, please ask your grandfather about the matter. After you get his answer, please tell me everything he said." Huang Yuxin looked at Wang Ruyue with a serious face.

"I understand. I will definitely…." Wang Ruyue smiled and wanted to agree to Huang Yuxin's request, but her words stopped when she saw a pitch-black aura shoot up into the sky like a pillar. If the place is not covered by the array, it will be visible to the entire Beijing area.

"What's that?" Wang Ruyue said in a trembling voice.

"I don't know. That isn't Tenku." Huang Yuxin felt the same fear as her.

The two girls looked at each other and nodded simultaneously. After that, they dashed at top speed in the direction the black aura was coming from. Huang Yuxin and wang Ruyue had forgotten what they had said and rushed to that place because they worried about Tenku. The giant centipede followed closely behind as its job was to protect the two girls.

At the same time, Gu Yuxuan had completely turned into a demon and looked far more terrifying than his previous appearance.

Tenku felt that his opponent's strength had increased many times, and perhaps the other party had truly set foot in the innate realm now. While Tenku was focused on checking his changes, Gu Yuxuan suddenly disappeared.

"Not good!" Tenku quickly transformed his Phantasmal Object into a scythe and swung it in circles after he lost sight of his enemy.

Clank!

The Devourer Scythe collided with something and made a metallic sound. Tenku turned around and saw Gu Yuxuan suddenly appear behind him unnoticed. Not only had his speed increased drastically, but his strength had also become more tyrannical.

Tenku was pushed back a few steps in the clash, but that wasn't because he lost to his opponent in strength but because he was unprepared for the attack.

Gu Yuxuan quickly moved again and launched another attack. He didn't want to give Tenku a chance to breathe and counterattacked. Gu Yuxuan poured the dark Qi into his sword and compressed it to the extreme. Then he slashed it with terrifying speed and power.

Unfortunately, this time Tenku was ready to face his attack. He had injected his Qi and genesis power into his scythe and clashed it against his opponent's blade.

Clank!

Their clash created a powerful shockwave and blew away everything in the surroundings. After that, their weapons met again, and they swiftly moved from place to place. Every time they collided, the impact would damage the surroundings and create a crater in the ground. In less than a minute, the two people had exchanged more than a hundred moves and left the area heavily damaged.

"I can't stay like this. The longer the battle, the more disadvantageous it will be for me as I will run out of power first. Gu Yuxuan didn't use much of his Qi to attack because he could control the aura of heaven and earth.

Moreover, the demon within his body was extremely troublesome. If that old man hadn't merged with that black Qi, he wouldn't have become this strong, and I could have defeated him more easily." Tenku sighed, and then her eyes looked at Gu Yuxuan coldly. His opponent had become much stronger and harder to deal with after using perfect demon transformation.

"I have to end this battle as soon as possible to prevent the worst from happening. Therefore, I will attack him more aggressively." Tenku transformed his Phantasmal Object into a naginata and threw consecutive thrusts at Gu Yuxuan.

Thousands of Stabs!

Tenku thrusts his weapon at astonishing speed and launches hundreds of attacks on his opponent. But Gu Yuxuan could easily dodge and block it, but that was only the beginning.

"Huh?" Gu Yuxuan frowned when he saw that Tenku's attack injured him in several parts of his body.

"You... how could you injure me with that attack of yours!? Once I use Perfect Demon Transformation and completely merge with the dark Qi, my body's defense should be much stronger than a cultivator from Shaolin!" Gu Yuxuan narrowed his eyes at Tenku. He believed his current physique was stronger than Kong Ming, who trained Vajra Holy Body, but Tenku could injure him with his spear.

Even though the wound wasn't deep and would heal quickly due to the regeneration effect of the Demon transformation, Tenku's attacks made him alert. If his opponent had hit him at a vital point, Gu Yuxuan might have been seriously injured or died.

Tenku had no intention of answering Gu Yuxuan's question and threw another successive jab at him, but much quicker and sharper.

Tactical Rapid Stabs!

"What!?" Gu Yuxuan was shocked because the attack made him feel dangerous. He quickly gathered black Qi in his sword and swung it at Tenku.

Evil King Slash!

Boooooooooommmmmmmmmmmm!

The sword's manifestation of black Qi shattered instantly when it collided with Tenku's attack, and another stab from his spear bombarded Gu Yuxuan's body.

"That is… spear intent!" Gu Yuxuan panicked and wanted to dodge the attack. Unfortunately, his escape route was blocked, and he had no choice but to take it head-on with his body.

"Aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh!" Gu Yuxuan screamed in pain as the Tenku pierced multiple holes in his body with the spear. Fortunately, he can regenerate. So the wound healed in seconds. But Tenku didn't allow him to counterattack.

He transformed his Phantasmal Object into a greatsword and condensed a large amount of Qi and genesis power into the blade. His weapon vibrated violently and glowed dazzlingly. Once Tenku felt that the power he had injected into his Phantasmal Object was sufficient, he swung it horizontally.

Emperor Slash!

The space around it trembled, and the world was painted green. The gigantic sword Qi shot out at a terrifying speed, cutting through everything in its path, and engulfed Gu Yuxuan's body.

"I can't accept this! The Gu family will avenge my death! They won't let you live!" Gu Yuxuan stared at Tenku with eyes full of resentment before disappearing into the gigantic Sword Qi.

"Aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
