Chapter 4 Royal Knight Part 2

The dragon roared back at him "How did you get that seal! There's no way you guys can kill him! There's no way you guys can kill my father,even a saint realm expert won't be enough!"

The knight laughed "That's what you fools think. Haven't you ever wondered why spirit ancestors like me are willing to serve the king? That's because he's at the seventh star of the saint realm,the only human to ever reach that realm in our history! As for how he killed the dragon, it's a mystery to us. But none us ever questions him, we don't qualify to even see the appearance of our king!"

The dragon roared back in rage "You guys took my father's life! Today, you'll pay for your actions. As my father's direct descendent,the seal doesn't have any negative effect on me.

The Nether Dragon opened its mouth, forming a black portal that is absorbing all the surrounding spirit energy in. "Take this you god damn human! Death beam!"

A beam was released by the Nether dragon,flying towards the knight at high speed. The wind splitting apart wherever the beam goes.

The knight knew that his plan had failed and was determined to take the dragon down with him. Taking out a totem,he chanted "Oh great king,do bless me with your powers to slay a dragon. I'm willing to give up my spirit essence and remaining lifespan in exchange."

Ending off,a gleam of light shined upon the knight,a powerful aura bursting our from him. The spirit essence in the air was all flowing towards him,raising his lance he stabbed towards the dragon.

"Take this! Rage of the thunder god!"

A bolt of thunder from the sky fell on his lance. The bolt of lighting was whirling around his lance,just like a snake coiling up its prey.

The beam and lance collided with each other,forming a huge explosion. Nightin was knocked out unconscious by the explosion and fainted on the ground...

When Nightin opened his eyes,a scroll appeared in front of him.

"Master you may not remember me. But I was meant to be your your soul spirit since birth. Only with my help,will you be able to get stronger quickly. Don't cry for me,this is ny destiny...

Remember this, you're the heir of the gale family... The strongest family in the world of spirit masters..."

Nightin tried to control his tears,yet they fell out uncontrollably. His teardrops were like a string of pearls,falling on the ground. Nightin didn't know why,why was the dragon willing to do so much for him. He couldn't even remember who the dragon was and how close they once were.

After a unknown period of time has passed,Nightin forced himself to stop crying and pick himself back up. Looking up at the sky,he shouted "One day, I'll become someone who can control the life and death of people! I'll protect everyone I love and slay anyone who harms them! I'll slay anyone who comes in my way!"

Nightin got into a meditating position,sitting cross legged on the ground. Determined to breakthrough to the spirit gathering realm.

Nightin only had one though in mind at this moment "To get stronger! To avenge the Nether dragon! To destroy the whole empire!

Nightin countinue to absorb the surrounding spirit essence. Like a whirlpool pulling all the water in,the surrounding spirit essence all spiralled towards him.

After an hour,the spirit essence stopped flowing towards him,showing that he made a successful breakthrough.

Nightin is now at the first star of spirit gathering,however his combat strength should be equivalent to that of a fourth star spirit gathering. (Each major realm is divided into nine small realms,one star representing each)

Nightin has the first tenth floor foundation tower in history and the scythe of destruction with him after all. If he goes all out,even a sixth star spirit gathering cultivator might not be his much.

Nightin thought to himself "Now is the best chance to condense my scythe energies into an intent."

The nine scythe energies spiralled around him,before diving towards him at the same time.

"Boom"

A explosive aura emitting the presence of death filled the air...

Nightin's intent is the calamity intent. One of the top ten intents that known to man. Also known as a emperor intent.The calamity intent brings destruction and deaths whenever he wills it. However,its strength is still greatly restricted by his cultivatation. With this, he's now considered a great scythe master. Not only that,his combat strength shouldn't be weaker than any average ninth star spirit gathering realm right now.

One fact to remember however,is that he's only at the first star of spirit gathering...

When he opened his eyes again, he looked up into the night sky. There were countless stars high up in the sky,all shining so brightly at him. Its like as though as if the stars were calling for him,asking for him to join them.

Nightin thought to himself "One day, I'll be alongside those stars... That will be the day,where the empire which has been the overlord of humans cease to exist. The day he seeks the answer towards his scythe,just why did he get this scythe? What makes even gods and devils fear it?"

Just then,he saw nine rings of different colours form on his scythe,before turning into a ring imprint on his scythe...

The nine colours were

white,green,blue,purple,orange,red,silver,gold and black respectively...

The nine colours represented the nine different talent levels,if Nightin had to say something,he knows that with the each seal unsealed,the scythe strength will grow exponentially. Despite his desire to unseal the first layer,he knows that it isn't the right choice for him to take. He knows deeply that he might be consumed by the scythe instead and become its puppet.

Calming himself down,he whispered "Array disperse..."
