s that large octopus to be able to directly pierce me with a sword strike.
That’s an impressive feat.”

A deep male voice pulled Ji Bai back from the midst of the huge memory transfer.

He was flabbergasted to discover that he was actually able to understand the words of the creature before him.

“Your willpower must truly be extraordinary to be able to withstand such a complicated memory inheritance.” The black knight nodded his head imperceptibly.

“…Senior.” Ji Bai bowed respectfully to the black knight.
It was impossible for memories to be falsified.

“Does the Guran tribe still exist in this age?”

“…” Ji Bai was silent.

“As I thought.”

The black knight slightly turned towards Lin at the side.
“She’s a descendent of the ancient vampire race, right?”

“Yes.” Ji Bai nodded.

“It’s truly a pity that they returned now, as their enemies were already one step ahead of them.”

For some reason, Ji Bai could hear a trace of lament inside the black knight’s words.

“It seems you still have some questions.”

After a moment of silence, Ji Bai asked, ‘Do third-tier and fourth-tier species really exist?’

“Of course.
The vampires of yesteryears and the Guran race were all third-tier species.
It’s truly a shame…” The black knight’s words came to a stop as he arrived at that topic.

“Has the vampire royal family been exterminated?” For some reason, Ji Bai’s instincts compelled him to ask that question.

“I’m not sure, this lowly self hadn’t been born in that era.” The black knight shook his head.

“But I can clearly recall the vampires’ [Primordial Vein] being extremely strong.
As long as one was tainted with a trace of the God’s Bloodline, they would be able to use the ability to embrace.”


“I understand…”

“I couldn’t tell that the vampire before me was royalty until I saw those long-lost silver strands of hair.
The sensation given off by her [Primordial Vein] is too weak.” The black knight silently stared at Lin, who was sitting down leaning against something in a corner.

“Even though you and I aren’t of the same race, this humble self has a request for you, junior.”

“Please speak your mind, senior.” Just his courage and commitment to challenge a [God] by himself was enough for Ji Bai to shower him with respect.

“My soul is long dead.
What’s left currently is merely a wisp of its remnant.”

“So, I would like you to kill me.” The black knight spoke each word with a pause.

“May your excellency grant me the honor.”

“This humble self is capable of looking deep into the hearts of people.
I can tell your excellency is an upstanding person.”

“It might be impossible for others, but If it’s you, you’ll definitely be able to do it.” The black knight fixed his gaze on the silvery-gray knight before him.

“Give me a reason.” Ji Bai calmly replied after a momentary silence.

“This humble self hasn’t escaped unscathed after vanquishing the Evil God.
Before the big octopus died, it had laid a curse on me and prevented my soul from departing peacefully.”

“If someone were to disturb the peace of my tomb after my death, this body of mine would turn into a zombie puppet.
When that time comes, it would bring an endless catastrophe to the world, even though its power is less than a tenth of my former strength.” After he finished his words, the black knight silently stared at Ji Bai with its scarlet eyes.

“Alright, I got it.” Ji Bai grasped his sword and deeply bowed to him.

“Very good.” The black knight solemnly nodded and adopted a fighting stance once more.

The gazes radiating out of their helmets clashed against each other.

The black knight could feel that the aura of the dark-silvery knight before him was vastly different from before.

Instantly, the two greatswords clashed once more.
The tomb shook intensely in the collision, causing countless bricks to fall while stirring up a cloud of dust and sand.

During the brief moment of trembling, the shockwaves of the battle impacted several stone bodies in the spectator’s stand, causing cracks to appear on them.

A swift and fierce sword tip streaked across the entire colosseum, as if wishing to tear it all into pieces.

Instead of retreating in the face of the black knight’s unbridled offensive, Ji Bai chose to advance.
He faced the attack without a hint of fear, his speed surprisingly close to that of the black knight.

“Cling!! Clank!!” The ferocious sound of metal colliding exploded outwards.
The evenly matched pair retreated to both ends of the colosseum.

“An outstanding attack.” The black knight straightened out the large sword in his hands.

“Let’s see if you can block this one.”


“Rumble!!” Traces of collapse suddenly appeared on the indestructible ceiling of the ruins, as if something was affecting it.

Like eye-dazzling lightning, his longsword was ignited in golden light.

‘Is he going to use his trump card now?’ 

Ji Bai adopted a firm horse stance, supported his sword on his elbow and aimed its tip directly towards the black knight before stopping his movements.

“Tssss!!!!” The trembling in the ruins grew even more intense.

The longsword in the black knight’s hands was like the daybreak at dawn, dyeing the surroundings with color.

He sent out a powerful sword strike.

[Demon Slayer Skill— Cleansing of The Original Sin]

“Booom!!!” The radiant gold ripples emitted by the sword seemed as if they were about to cut the indestructible ruins in two.

The pressure made the wind howl in agony, as they cut through the spectators’ stands on both ends with incredible ease and swept towards Ji Bai with irresistible force.

Ji Bai continued to support his sword with his elbow, the complexion in his eyes remaining unperturbed despite all the turmoil.

“Boom!!! …Swoosh…!” When the golden ripples came into contact with the tip of Ji Bai’s sword, their form instantly dissipated.

His blade didn’t miss a single one.
After the scattered golden-yellow ripples were completely absorbed, they coalesced and wrapped around the body of his sword.

[Void Class— Domain Assimilation]

Ji Bai raised his sword, around which golden ripples danced, high up into the air before abruptly swinging it outwards.
With one move, he returned the black knight’s attack in full.

“Boom!!”

The blinding light made Lin uncomfortable and forced her to cover her eyes.

The roof, which was on the verge of collapsing, instinctively gave rise to the desire to flee, but for some reason, she couldn’t take a step forward no matter what.

“An outstanding and marvelous strike, truly remarkable…”

In a vast expense of whiteness, a man’s voice entered Ji Bai’s brain.

“I will let you serve as the vessel for [Tranquility], so that you can continue to pass it down to later generations.
Take good care of the sword in your hand, it is truly a sword capable of slaying Gods.

“I have a feeling that he will descend once more.”

“Everything will depend on you.”

“To be defeated by my own skill, this humble self had no regrets.”
