Chapter 34 - Chapter 33: Was It That Easy?

[After accepting a mission from the mission hall, you left the Holy-Sword Sect and headed towards Mo Tianxuan's mission place.]

[In a deep forest around Tianyu Kingdom, there was a handsome man hunting and killing all the monsters around in an invincible manner. He was Mo Tianxuan, a time traveler.]

[Just as he was about to place a hand on the monster closest to him and say those magical words, a sound echoed, and he turned his head towards the place where it came from. At that moment, the shadow of a person appeared in his sight.]

[It was a young man with a crooked nose, wearing the same sect uniform as Mo Tianxuan, though the quality of his clothes was poorer than Mo Tianxuan's.]

[He waved his hand toward Mo Tianxuan and said—"Senior Brother, I didn't expect to meet you in this forest. Have you also accepted the mission of hunting beasts?"]

[The person with the crooked nose asked Mo Tianxuan. His cultivation was at the early stage of the Foundation-Building Realm.]

[That person was obviously you, who had disguised yourself as a member of Qingyun Sect to get close to Mo Tianxuan.]

[After an hour, a small fire was burning in the forest. It was you who was making food using your God of Cooking skill.]

[It was not ordinary food but food made with precise control of your cooking skills. It was poisonous on one side and nicely cooked on the other. This was the special food you made for Mo Tianxuan himself.]

[You knew you couldn't kill him by just poisoning his food. After all, as soon as he ate, his system would start to dissolve it. But in a fight, even a second matters, so how could you give up this chance that might increase your probability of winning?]

[After the food was ready, you served Mo Tianxuan the poisonous side and served yourself the better portion in a bowl.]

[He took the bowl and placed it close to his lips but stopped and said: "I had already killed him some days ago. When are you going to reveal who yo—"]

[Before he could finish his sentence, you attacked him. Looking at your attack, Mo Tianxuan thought he could catch it bare-handed, but your strength was stronger than he had anticipated.]

[The moment your attack landed, he was sent crashing into tens of trees, which broke like thin paper.]

[Mo Tianxuan stood up, blood oozing from the corner of his mouth. He said: "I didn't expect to meet a Supreme Foundation Builder in this barren place. Tell me your identity. I want to know the name of the first Supreme Foundation that died at my hand."]

[You were shocked. You didn't expect him to have this much confidence even after being attacked with your full strength.]

[After exchanging some moves, you understood why he was this confident. He had comprehended—or rather devoured—many different types of intents from other geniuses that died at his hands.]

[After hundreds of rounds, with your strong foundation and comprehension of the sword law, your strength overwhelmed his many intents, and you gained the upper hand in the fight.]

[After realizing he was going to lose, Mo Tianxuan decided to run away and used the speed intent of the 2nd level. His speed increased by three times.]

[Seeing that he was going to escape, how could you let him get away so easily? You also used the speed card rewarded by the system.]

[Speed Card (1× use): Your normal speed ×3. Duration: 3 hours.]

[After using the card, you began to chase Mo Tianxuan. An hour later, you found that you couldn't catch him with raw speed alone, so you decided to attack him.]

[You opened the storage space above him and attacked with your fully charged weapon.]

[Because you had already stored spiritual energy in all the weapons earlier, this time it didn't consume your spiritual energy and exhaust you like the last simulation. It only consumed the amount needed to channel the weapon.]

[You attacked Mo Tianxuan through the storage space. Even though he dodged, his speed became slower.]

[He turned his face toward you, shock written all over it, and said: "I didn't expect, even in the slightest, that you are also a system user."]

[Suddenly, his voice changed, and he said in a flattering tone: "Brother, we are both transmigrators. Can you please let me go? After all, we are from the same world, so we should help each other in this unknown land, am I right?"]

[Hearing him say this, there wasn't the slightest ripple in your heart about becoming sworn brothers with him, and you attacked him decisively.]

[After all, you had already tried to assassinate him. Do you think he would spare you in the future when he has enough strength? You thought he would never do that.]

[Seeing your actions, Mo Tianxuan had no choice but to try to escape.]

[But you soon caught up to him and attacked. Seeing that there was no way to escape, Mo Tianxuan had to bite the bullet and fight you to the death.]

[After thousands of rounds, there was a bloody man on the ground gasping for breath, but the amount of oxygen he inhaled was less than what he exhaled. He was Mo Tianxuan.]

[In front of him stood a person with a crooked nose, and obviously, it was you.]

(System: You are this cautious even after winning the fight. Salute to your cautiousness.)

[You placed your hand on Mo Tianxuan's head and said those magical words that you had kept hearing in past simulations: "Devour."]

[Hearing you say these words, even the last bit of resistance in his body calmed down, and he soon accepted his death.]

[You reached the mid-stage of the Foundation-Building Realm, and with it, many intents at level 1 or prototype level appeared in your mind.]

[You felt very intoxicated by this sensation, but it gradually faded away. Maybe this was what the system meant by no side effects—you would not be intoxicated by this feeling and wantonly kill people to devour them.]

[At that moment, Mo Tianxuan's body began to become illusionary, and a pure white source called the System Origin appeared.]

[Before it could escape into the countless streams of time and space and become illusionary, you placed it in your storage space.]

[You looked toward the spot where Mo Tianxuan's body had faded away and muttered uncertainly: "Was it that easy?"]

[Yes, until now you didn't believe that Mo Tianxuan was actually dead. This was also the reason why your face was still disguised using the 72 Transformation Technique.]

[After all, all transmigrators are people of great luck. How could it be this easy for you to kill them?]

[After dwelling on this question many times, you decided to leave it at that. If Mo Tianxuan really wasn't dead as you suspected, then maybe you would meet again in the future.]

[You left that place, completed the mission assigned to you, and returned to the Holy-Sword Sect.]
