The Story Never Ends
Chapter 64 - Battle With A Golden Core Cultivator

Some distance away from the battle, where it was safe, Edgar was sitting cross-legged on the ground. He was closing his eyes and looked like he was meditating. But suddenly he opened his mouth and coughed out some black blood.

"Damn, that breath was too strong. It will take some time to force out these dark energies from my body."

He opened up his ring and took out some pills. After putting them in his mouth, he again closed his eyes and was about to meditate but a sudden voice interrupted him.

"Elder"

He looked in that direction and saw his disciple running towards him.

"Why is that kid here? Did they already complete their task? But why is he the only one here?" He was about to question him but he saw several darts coming from the back of that disciple.

"Dodge!" He exclaimed but it was still too late.

"What?" The disciple didn't understand what the elder wanted him to do. But he suddenly felt cold on his back.

He was about to check what it was but his head suddenly started feeling dizzy. He fell on his knees and found that his hands were shaking. He painfully managed to turn back and saw the masked man who was carrying something. But he couldn't see it properly as his vision became blurry.

"You lied to me…" he blurted out and finally lost his consciousness.

"How dare you?" Edgar couldn't believe that someone actually managed to attack his disciple right infront of him.

He focused his sights on the masked man and saw that he was carrying a blowpipe which he had seen previously in the Conference.

"Are you that new disciple?" He questioned him before trying to make some moves. He was injured and didn't want to battle someone who looked quite mysterious. But if this person was that new disciple, then he would definitely make him regret coming here.

"What do you think?" Davion kept the blowpipe in his ring and took out the broken blade that he had obtained from the auction hall.

"I thought that you would get riled up and attack me immediately after seeing your disciple hurt. But it looks like you are quite heartless and don't care about him. Or are you injured and have no energy left?" He mocked.

"Oh, it looks like you are really that disciple. Even if I am injured now, a puny Qi refining disciple like you won't be able to hurt me." Edgar took out his saber and looked quite confident.

"It looks like you are really confident. Your disciples also looked the same until they met me." Davion actually wanted to anger Edgar here. He didn't know whether he could catch up to a Golden Core Cultivator if Edgar wanted to run away from here. So, he was trying to save himself from trouble.

"What do you mean?" Edgar had a bad feeling after listening to this.

"Haha, where did you send your disciples?" Davion asked.

When Edgar heard this, he finally understood what might have happened.

"Did you hold them as hostages and want to make a deal?" This was his first thought and it sounded quite plausible as the gap between Qi refining state and Golden Core state was simply too big. Maybe this might be the reason why that disciple looked quite sure and came alone.

"Why should I take such trouble, when I can simply come for your head? I killed all your disciples even after they begged me." Davion chuckled.

"F**k you. You can forget about leaving from here." Edgar roared with anger and jumped straight to Davion with his saber. It was glowing red and came with his full force.

"It looks like I have succeeded but I can't take this easy. It's my first time battling a Golden Core cultivator. I can't make any mistakes."

Davion's whole blade turned black and a strong corrosive aura was coming out of it. This was his first time going all out with his dark energy. He had never dared to use it like this before because his weapon couldn't handle it. But now without any care in this world, he also swung his blade with full force straight towards the saber.

Both of them collided and a huge shockwave was created. From a distance, it looked like a red light and a black light had met with each other. But each of these lights was trying to overpower the other.

After a few seconds, the black light managed to overpower the red one. Edgar was thrown with his saber and got smashed into a nearby rock. He coughed out a large amount of black blood. His hands had become dark and looked like more dark energy had infiltrated his body.

"Damn, how could this kid produce such strong energy? This is not something a disciple at Qi refining state should have."

"This is all because of my previous injury. Not only that, but this kid also uses dark energy like that Lion which made my previous injury act out again."

"I would not have fallen at such a disadvantage in a single move if not for this injury." Edgar was full of anger. He held his saber which was on the ground and tried to stand up. But when he saw the saber, his eyes nearly popped out.

There was already a small crack on it.
