Cultivation Through Artifacts - Chapter 348
As Khal stared deeply into King Zell’s eyes, he secretly moved his Bloodshed Touch and forced the blood in the leader of the Night Crawler Race to get out of control for a split moment.
King Zell’s face turned ugly when he felt as his blood began to move reverse in his veins, his almost soulless eyes gaping at the human in front of him as if he was a ghost of some sort.
“You… How do you have three Blessings?” King Zell struggled to say those words as it was obvious from the trickle of blood at the corner of his mouth that he was feeling immense pain at the moment and could hardly speak.
However, at the same time, he was also feeling indescribable shock as the human creature before him just now exhibited another Blessing even though he has already possessed two other!
One was his appearance-changing ability which he used on Planet Thov to fool Bane and his soldiers while the second one was used just now to save the Sect Elders and Senior Lin.
While it was not a huge surprise that there were a few humans that possessed two Blessings, it was extremely rare that a human had three Blessings! It could be even said that only one out of a hundred million had the chance to own three Blessings at once, and even then if they were lucky enough!
King Zell could easily count the number of such humans existing on one of his hands as all of those became powerful beings even if they hailed from the Human Race.
However, all those experts were around seventy years old and not less than twenty as the human in front of him! Just what kind of treasure did he use to acquire such a great strength under so small amount of time?
He wanted to know, but unfortunately, no matter how much he wished to unearth his secrets and make them his, he won’t be able to do so as currently he was in the tight hold of this human boy who he underestimated greatly.
“Three?” Khal curved his lips upward as his eyes flashed with slyness and asked, “Who said I only have three?”
BAM!
Immediately as he said those words his hand that held King Zell’s fist lit up with blazing crimson flames while his eyes turned sky blue that emitted nothing but blood-freezing coldness!
“Imp… Argh!” King Zell wished to say something when he saw the sudden changes on and around Khal, but because of the burning sensation that pierced his hand and doubled his pain, the only thing that escaped his mouth was a muffled groan filled with distress.
As for the Elders and Senior Lin, they have already lost all of their logical reasoning as none of them could comprehend what was happening before their eyes.
Five different Blessings, each of them used continuously to surpass and dominate an existence on the Peak Ascender Stage even though he was just a Body Temperer. Also, when they thought back how he used a sixth one to confront Senior Lin, they couldn’t help but feel their head start to hurt from a great headache.
“Is he even a human at this point?” Senior Lin sighed deeply as her eyes were fixed on Khal’s back, realizing she could consider herself lucky for not getting killed when she offended him.
“So? What will be your answer?” Khal asked calmly and even though he felt his Body Essence getting depleted at a rapid pace, he still tightened his palm around King Zell’s first, forcing an even greater grunt to appear in his ear.
King Zell clenched his teeth in pain and was about to accept the offer, but just as he was about to open his mouth he noticed as the shadow below Khal’s feet began to move slightly, making his eyes flicker with light before a cunning smile appeared on his face.
“My answer? You can go and fuck yourself that is my answer!”
And immediately as he said those words, the shadow below Khal’s feet shifted and an arm holding a dagger flew out, threatening to slice Khal into two halves at a crazy speed!
“WATCH OUT!” Senior Lin seeing this screamed out aloud in the hope it will help Khal react in time, but deep in her heart she already knew it was too late; the speed with which the weapon moved was just too great, and there was no chance at all that Khal will be able to survive.
“It’s over…” Senior Lin’s face paled as he watched the dagger approach Khal’s lower part with a speed that not even a Peak Limit Breaker would be able to follow, and her head already imagined the sight she will see soon.
However, just as the weapon could have reached him, a sigh similar to someone deeply disappointed in someone else appeared in the air before a cold voice filled with indifference followed suit.
“I see… Then it has been settled.”
And with those words, a mixture of half black and half white light broke out from Khal’s free hand before he swung his hand casually toward the shadow below him.
Swish!
BOOOM!

‘Woah! That much?’ Khal felt greatly surprised when he heard the notification in his head, but quickly calmed down and shifted his nonchalant gaze at King Zell who stared at the half black and half white sword in his hand with a stupified expression.
“Y-You… What did you do?” King Zell’s eyes trembled from fear as he stared at the spot where the weapon was pierced in the ground, thinking about something which he wished not to believe.
However, his fear quickly turned into a nightmare by the following words that Khal has said.
“I gave you a chance with which you didn’t live, so I have killed your daughter and now you,” Khal said casually, and without waiting for King Zell to say anything else he waved his sword once again, sending King Zell’s head flying into the air!
