In the instant he realized what was happening, Chen Xing already had a regular longsword in his hand.

“Whoosh!”

The sword passed through the demon’s body before him.

However!

The sword went through his body without causing any harm!

The demon before him seemed to have partially transformed into a spirit form, his whole body appearing ethereal. Visible but intangible.

“Whoosh whoosh whoosh!”

Several regular basic attacks were unleashed!

The powerful sword energy directly cleaved through the four layers of the small room. It even left a long crack on the third floor.

At that moment, the robotic butler, Little Tian, was cleaning on the third floor. The previous earthquake had caused many items to fall to the ground. It had to bend over and pick them up one by one.

Suddenly, a streak of sword light flashed by!

Looking up, it could see the blue sky through the crack.

It was utterly bewildered!

“Hey, what are you guys doing, big brother and sister-in-law!?” So it stopped its cleaning and shouted: “Hey! Are you dead!?”

Chen Xing had no time to deal with it now. Those sword beams had passed directly through the demon’s body before him.

But it remained completely unharmed!

Chen Xing’s expression turned serious as he immediately retreated, putting several meters of distance between them.

The demon king’s crimson pupils stared fixedly at Chen Xing.

There was suddenly a flash of white light.

The demon king vanished!

However, a blood-red blade appeared in the spot where the demon king had stood. It floated in mid-air, emitting a scarlet glow from its blade while exuding eerie black energy.

The blade was 1.2 meters long in total. Its blade was 3.3 cm wide. On the slender blade, several black patterns coiled around its surface. The black energy emanated from within those patterns. At the end of the hilt, a crimson demon eye was prominently displayed.

With its black eyeball and scarlet iris, it seemed as if numerous blood vessels were about to burst forth from within.

It was extremely horrifying!

Chen Xing furrowed his brows tightly, his gaze fierce. He held the sword horizontally in front of his chest, remaining extremely vigilant and not relaxing his guard.

Suddenly, the demon eye at the tip of the blade hilt rotated. And it looked at Chen Xing!

To be precise, it looked at the ordinary longsword in Chen Xing’s hand.

Chen Xing was shaken internally! That eyeball was actually a living creature!?

Just as he was surprised, the blade “whooshed” and had already arrived above his head. Its speed was incredibly fast!

Chen Xing subconsciously raised the sword in his hand to block above his head. Meanwhile, a chilling aura enveloped him.

However!

The moment his sword made contact with that terrifying crimson blade…

The ordinary longsword, which had been enveloped in Chen Xing’s formidable aura, was effortlessly cut through by the demonic sword. There was barely even a sound!

Only a faint, crisp sound could be heard as his sword was severed! It was as if cutting through tofu, incredibly effortless.

The ordinary longsword that even a high-ranking demon or a grand swordsman of the demon race would find difficult to easily break was cut in this manner!

That crimson blade didn’t stop there; it continued its swing downwards.

With such a strike, Chen Xing had no time to dodge. Even if he twisted his body to avoid a direct hit to the crown of his head, his body would still be sliced into thirds!

At this critical moment, a cold light suddenly flashed in Chen Xing’s hand.

“Clang!”

“Buzz!”

The sound of blades colliding rang out.

“Boom!”

The ceiling was directly split open by a flash of cold light! Sunlight streamed in through the crack.

This time, the blade in Chen Xing’s hand was not effortlessly cut through once again. Instead, it caught the strike from the crimson blade!

Upon closer inspection, the blade in Chen Xing’s hand was actually a knife blade.

Yes, it was the one he had received from the Ultimate Achievement Gift Pack of the Assassin Star.

Assassin Star’s local specialty: Premium Blade!

Only someone with his unparalleled reaction speed could manage to survive in such desperate circumstances.

After withstanding the attack, Chen Xing immediately disengaged and jumped away. Meanwhile, he took a quick look at the knife blade in his hand. Surprisingly, a gap had appeared on it!

Chen Xing’s eyes narrowed.

There was something odd about this knife!

What exactly was the Assassin Star? A place filled with assassins, each one carrying concealed weapons, and it was renowned for producing weaponry. The one thing that wasn’t in short supply in such a place was craftsmen!

Genius artisans emerged one after another. As a result, the weapons manufactured in that realm were of the highest quality across all realms!

They were categorized into five levels: Inferior, Ordinary, Fine, Superior, Premium, and the ultimate rarity: God/Divine-tier – Thousand Feather Kill!

Even if it were an Inferior-grade weapon from the Assassin Star, after being infused with killing intent, it could serve as a top-quality weapon in other realms known for cold weapons. Not to mention the higher quality Premium-grade weapons!

However, the crimson blade before him, even without the wrapping of killing intent, was capable of creating a gap in Chen Xing’s Premium-grade weapon which was covered with his killing intent. This was something that even the finest weapons from the Assassin Star realm could not achieve.

Clearly, it was of a higher quality. There was a strong possibility that it was a God-tier weapon!

At the same time, Chen Xing felt quite fortunate. The Assassin Star had not deceived him! The Premium Blade was truly outstanding in quality!

While thinking about these things, he didn’t dare to relax his guard. Simultaneously, he had already switched to a Premium-grade longsword.

It was a recent purchase! Before, due to the urgent situation, he didn’t have time to buy a new one and had to use the small blade from his storage.

But not anymore. It was time to reveal his hand!

Using an ordinary longsword all this time had only been for honing his skills in wrapping killing intent… Now that he had encountered a big spender, he had to spend some gold himself! Only by spending gold could he defeat those who spent gold!

“Swoosh!”

The crimson blade flew towards Chen Xing once again.

“Clang, clang, clang!”

The two blades kept colliding.

Chen Xing clearly sensed that, even with its killing intent wrapped around it, his Premium-grade longsword wasn’t as durable as this crimson blade.

However…

Each strike of the crimson blade wasn’t particularly powerful. It seemed like it wanted to test his swordsmanship…

That was quite interesting…

“Clang, clang, clang… thud!”

Chen Xing stepped on it directly. At the same time, he twisted his wrist and thrust his sword towards the ground!

The Premium-grade blade, enveloped in killing intent, directly plunged into the ground. The blade’s edge sliced through the demonic eye situated at the end of the hilt. Blue blood sprayed out from the cut, splattering all over the ground!

“Grrrr!!!”

A chilling and dreadful low roar resonated from within the crimson blade! The sound seemed to be a lament from hell itself.

Following that, a white light flashed, and the demonic blade beneath Chen Xing’s feet disappeared without a trace!

Chen Xing: ???

The Demon King? Is that it?

Suddenly, the system panel appeared before him:

【Ding~ Congratulations, Host, for successfully binding the second Spirit User! Achieving the Dual Spirit User Achievement! Rewards: Attribute Boost: 20%, Spirit Points: 100 million, Crystal Coins: 200 million!】

Chen Xing: ???

San’er: !!!

【Chen Xing! I think I understand something!!!】

Chen Xing also began to comprehend!

He wanted to open the Spirit System interface. However, a panel popped up:

【Ding~ Star Upgrade in progress, failed to open interface. Please try again after Star Upgrade!】

…

“Where’s Zero?”

Chen Xing gripped his sword. Since he couldn’t see Zero and had just finished a fight, his gaze still held some lingering killing intent. It was as if he was ready to strike her the moment she appeared.

【Ding~ Star Upgrade Complete!】

“I understand!”

【I understand!】

Both spoke in unison!

Seeing this, they probably already had a good idea of what was going on with that Chu Jiu.
