Chapter 435: Prelude: Part 1
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The clouds in the sky of the fourth cave were red . At times they gathered, and at times, they dispersed . The land was dry and hot, full of cracks . Blood red just like the clouds, the land below was endless with no boundary in sight . This place was like no other .
The land was square, suspended in the middle with thick and dark black fog all around . Now, on a mound somewhere on this land, thousands of millions of bones and skeletons piled up to form a mountain of bone which was several hundred meters in height .
Around the white mountain of bones were what looked like translucent bugs . These bugs had a long tail, with wings of the dragonfly and a white skull on their head . When they flew, they produced a buzz that sounded like the cries of humans .
On the top of the mountain of bones rose a long red-haired man with scars all over his body . He was bare-chested, hair tight into a ponytail behind his head . His body had many scars and bloody wounds . But he couldn’t care less .
“All killed… Sigh…” the man mumbled to himself, glancing into the sky . “I just detected living things appearing around here and hurried over . But they did not last… I’m bored…”
He rested his battered great bone sword on his shoulder, scanning around . “It looks like there is nothing to do now… Should I just sleep, then?”
He had ruled this dark spirit cave for too long . At first, he was a good ruler, leading the dark spirits, making them get stronger . But ruling the place could no longer give him the joy . So he destroyed everything he had created . Pain, horror, and anguish filled the place as he massacred everything in the cave and the nearby caves . He then encountered a powerful resistance .
When he came to massacre the dark spirits in the last cave, the stronger ones teamed up and triggered a taboo spell, confining the man in the cave . This powerful spell prevented the man from opening a passage from the inside and kept him from escaping . Then a long time had passed .
A few days ago, an unknown tunnel appeared, then came an army of dark spirits into the cave . As soon as the dark spirits gathered into formation, the man was champing at the bit and charging at them . What followed was a brutal massacre .
“Boring… This is too boring…”
The man straightened his body and was about to sit down again to play the game of counting the bones under his buttocks . Then a faint cracking sound was heard from several hundred meters away on the flat land below . He got to his feet, looking at the sound source, his eyes lighting up .
“Something is coming again?”
He was filled with anticipation . He nearly went insane from the boredom of doing nothing for a thousand years . The arrival of the dark spirit army earlier had reignited his curiosity and anticipation of this world .
“What is that? I’m thrilled… I’m going to take a dive this time, keeping a few of them alive . ”
The man licked his cracked lips with his tongue before lunging up into the air, flying in that direction .

Down on the land, another cracking sound came, followed by a burst of red light and the forming of a disc pattern . A vortex appeared in the red light with dark spirits of various shapes and sizes scrambling to get out . Some looked like wolves and cats . Some lions and tigers . Some did not have defining characteristics but mere random combinations of different living creatures . Some had even ridiculous shapes, like the one with the head of a teapot . One dark spirit had a pair of hands that looked soft, like the trunk of an elephant . Some were just in the shape of a lantern .
The dark spirits rushed out like a stampede, flooding the cave that filled with bones .
“Here they come again! Wahaha!”
The man laughed hysterically, his eyes billowing with black smoke . Carrying his great bone sword, he swooped down from the air into the sea of dark spirits . There was no technique needed, just waving his great bone sword . But every swing of his sword produced a terrifying air pressure around the blade . As if it possessed an unknown power, it slashed every dark spirit that came into contact with it in half .
“Hahahaha!”
The man cut a two-meter dark spirit in half, and then with a reverse motion, he kicked away a few dark spirits that came from behind .
“Useless! This is my power! Slashing anything that comes near in half! Wahaha!”
He laughed in a frenzy, swinging his great bone sword and immersing himself in the joy of killing . Nothing, be it the dark spirit, attacks of the dark spirit, or pure energy assaults, could last one round—in fact, they just lasted half a round .

“That is it!”
Just then, bright green light burst out from the red vortex, hitting the man’s great one sword . Then out came the perfectly pure body of the Fairy Empress . She was draped in a full set of beautiful jade green armor, wearing a crystal green frontlet symbolizing the Fairy Empress over her forehead, and holding a natural wand that twisted like a dead tree .
“With your strength and status, don’t you think you have gone too far by massacring the ordinary dark spirits?” The Fairy Empress sneered .
As the man paused his killing, the dark spirits retreated in fear . No one was attacking or fleeing because if they fled, the king of the dark spirits would come after them . By then, their only fate was death and turning into the dark spirit beads and becoming as one with the king .
“Going too far?” The man grinned . “So long as it is fun . What is going too far? Does it mean anything?”
“By the looks of things, you must be the one who massacred our army earlier . Then, I’d have to say, take this!” The Fairy Empress lifted her wand and pointed into the air . A ring of jade-green halo burst from the tip of the wand and expanded for a thousand meters in all directions in a split second .
“Words of Binding!”
The Fairy Empress started to cast a spell . Dark-green vines grew out from the ground within the thousand meters square of land and bound the man’s legs .

“Fog of Withering!”
A ring of blurry purple light formed into an arrow above the Fairy Empress before it disappeared .
“Spirit Beings!”
This time, it was a faint blue light that appeared and vanished in a flash .
“Bloom of Ruin!”
This last one was a pure black flower still with dew on its petals bloomed before the Fairy Empress .
