“Why have they still not returned?” someone asked from the entrance to the tunnel .
Black-Moon King had arrived before the space tunnel, and he was waiting for his son .
When Black-Moon King was young, he himself had entered the space tunnel . He knew how difficult the hardships were on the other side . Right now, those beyond ought to have been on the twelfth round of rain . Since Black Steel hadn’t come out yet, there were only two possibilities .
The first option was that Black Steel was incredibly lucky, and he had found an incredible opportunity . The second option was that he was dead .
In the past, Barons had only managed to reach the eleventh stage; that was the height of their power . No one had ever successfully made it through the twelfth .
There was once a son of a king who was so ambitious, he stole a Duke’s armor and took it to Knife Grave . He wanted to see how many rounds the knife rain would ultimately last .
But on the twelfth round, the young man came stumbling out with the Duke’s armor mostly in tatters .
When he was questioned, the Baron told his father that on the twelfth round, the knives came down like an endless stream . Even his Duke armor quickly broke down under the strain .
The Baron had managed to escape right before the Duke armor was entirely broken . If he hadn’t gotten out in time, he would have been killed .

That was why Barons never attempted to take Duke armors with them . That young man’s tale told everyone just how scary and powerful the knife rains could become .
Black-Moon King had already been waiting much longer than he had expected, but Black Steel was still inside . That was his only son, and he was incredibly worried . He stared at the black hole-like vortex . He was surrounded by many other Nobles, eager to see the final result .
His hands clenched into a pair of fists, as his own nails dug into his skin . He was never this nervous, not even when he was fighting someone .
Yisha was not in front of the tunnel, but she still frowned and stared toward the entrance .
On the Knife Grave planet, the knife river came down like a tsunami from the sky . It felt as if it was going to cut the entire planet in half .
Han Sen and Black Steel’s faces changed . They felt awful . They did not have Duke armor, and neither did they have an escape route .
Suddenly, the knife river was practically above their heads .
Black Steel lobbed his horse knife and took Han Sen’s Duke knife . Holding two knives, he jumped at the mass of the river and yelled, “Run!”
The knives came at the river like a whirlwind, tearing apart the skies . Black Steel managed to cut the knife river in half .

It was only for a second, though, and the knife river swiftly managed to bridge and refill the divide .
Katcha!
With the impact he brought against the knife river, Black Steel’s Earl weapon was broken against the tide . His hand bled, as a result His other hand, that was clutching the Duke knife, now had a few crevices running across it
The impact with the knife river was too strong . The Duke knife was pushed to the side . The knives rushed by Black Steel like water .
Black Steel looked at the knife river and his eyes moved . He realized he would die this time, and there was no way out for him . Seeing endless knives line up together, so close to his body, it would only take a second for them to chop and dice him into pieces .
But the knives suddenly stopped, and they froze where they were in the air . They hung there, motionless, blanketing the sky . The knives were almost into his flesh and his eyes, but the spectacle had all suddenly stopped .
Sha! Sha!
Suddenly, it was like time began running backwards . The knives reversed course . They moved 100 meters away before coming to a stop .
The weapons started to spin, and so too did the ones on the ground,

Countless weapons were spinning like tornados . They were everywhere, and Black Steel couldn’t even have guessed how many there were .
As the weapons spun, they also began to tremble . It seemed almost like they were afraid of something .
Black Steel slowly turned around and looked at Han Sen . Han Sen’s clothes were waving as he cast his knifemind . He looked like a beast that was on the verge of ripping the galaxy apart
“How is that possible?” Black Steel looked at Han Sen .
Han Sen possessed a knifemind that was greater than that of Black Steel’s father, Black-Moon King . Even Knife Queen was likely inferior to him .
Han Sen now had Black Steel’s horse knife . He had planned to use his knifemind and Centaur shield so they could think about what they might do to escape the space tunnel .
The effects of using the knifemind were more surprising than anticipated, however . It looked as if the knives felt his knifemind, and they sought to back-off . Han Sen no longer needed to summon his shield anymore .
Han Sen’s knifemind came from the scabbard . The scabbard’s knifemind originated with the Rebate; their only deified elite . Han Sen’s power was far worse, of course . But even so, his knifemind was deified in caliber . Although it wasn’t as good as the real thing, it was still good .
The knives weren’t creatures, but when they felt the knifemind, they were shocked . That was why they were shaking, and unable to leave .
Suddenly, a knife fell from the sky and hit the ground . It almost landed on Han Sen’s head .
Han Sen fell back and dodged it .
He looked down and saw the knife that was now protruding from a rock . The scabbard and the handle were all rusted, and there was no handguard at all . It looked like a steel rod that was just a little bit curved .
“Weird . All these knives are scared of the knifemind . So, why did this one decide to come down?” Han Sen thought to himself . He knelt by the knife, grabbed it by the handle, and tried to pull it from the rock .
Han Sen wanted to remove it from the rock and see what might have been special about it, but it didn’t budge . He tried yanking it a few times, but nothing worked .
“Little Black, why can I not pull this out?” Han Sen asked over his shoulder, just as the knife jerked out of the ground . He tossed it to Black Steel for inspection .
Han Sen put away his knifemind . The weapons then seemed to lose all support, and they all fell to the ground . Within the proximity of a hundred meters, weapons were everywhere .
Black Steel looked at Han Sen strangely, then he looked at the knife in his hands . Then he threw it back to Han Sen, saying, “This is not a long knife with a scabbard . It is a knife’s child or a knife stick . It isn’t a knife yet . It’s half finished . ”
