Explosion

The Early Stage Nascent Soul cultivator stood in silence, continuing his thinking.

"Hmmm. Could it really have been him? No! Of course not, there's never been someone that's gone through that gap, no matter how much of a genius they are! If even the young sect master couldn't do this, how could an ant like him---" His brain actually started hurting from so much thinking.

"Hey don't think all day! I'm here to fight, not watch you think!" The Nascent Soul cultivator snapped out of his deep thinking, interrupted by Magnus' yell. Without giving him another second of thinking, Magnus flew at him as the ground beneath him exploded. With his sword strike traveling in a slashing motion, the Nascent Soul cultivator had no choice but to send out his own slash, cancelling out Magnus' sword strike.

"This kid can actually send out a strike equivalent to an Early Stage Nascent Soul cultivator!" The Nascent Soul cultivator was incensed as both warriors continued cancelling out their strikes. When Magnus realized his enemy was almost out of Qi, he decided to fuse Qi from his Golden Core into his sword, increasing the damage by two. The Nascent Soul cultivator saw it was aimed for his Dantian, so he quickly moved left.

*Vzzzzt!*

Scarlet blood flew across the sky as a white arm flew and landed a few meters away. Even though he had dodged the fatal strike, he still lost an arm!

"You--" The Nascent Soul cultivator was quickly interrupted as another sword slash dismembered his other arm. Magnus stopped his attacks, but this didn't make the Nascent Soul cultivator any better. He felt that if he didn't kill the opposite side, he would surely die here today. With no choice and being forced into a corner, the Nascent Soul Stage cultivator decided if he was going to die today anyways, he was going to bring this kid to hell along with him.

With a crazed look in his eyes and some froth coming out of his mouth, he focused all the Qi in the air, flooding his Dantian. Yes, he intended to blow up his Golden Core and his Nascent Soul. He knew that even though the Golden Core wouldn't do much to the little bastard, he still had the Nascent Soul. The Nascent Soul is developed when a cultivator advances into the Nascent Soul Stage. He also knew even though the little bastard was a genius, there was no way he could withstand the explosion.

"DIE, YOU LITTLE BAST---" The Nascent Soul cultivator's had a look of despair in his eyes when he saw there was no one in his vicinity.

"HAHAHA! You actually thought I would stay and welcome your explosion like any other hot blooded protagonist? No way, even though that explosion wouldn't kill me, it will still cause me burns and of course, we don't want this handsome face ruined." Magnus laughed loudly.

"No!" He despaired at the fact that he couldn't take down the little bastard with him and just when he thought his last seconds couldn't get worse, 5 Peak Stage Golden Core cultivators quickly surrounded him.

"Sect Elder, we're here to help!" One of them yelled.

"Huh? Where's the enemy?" Another questioned with a look of confusion.

"YOU IDIO--" The Nascent Soul cultivator was enraged thoroughly today. He was humiliated by a Golden Core ant, dismembered by that ant, forced to ignite his Golden Core and Nascent Soul, and now these five idiots actually came right when he was about to explode himself. He tried to warn them, but it was too late, the Nascent Soul cultivator had already ignited his Golden Core and Nascent Soul so there was no way he could prevent the explosion.

*BOOM*
