Others Level Up, but I Pursue Cultivation!

"Even an Emperor Level powerhouse of the Demon Race, I can wound their finger! Sever their hand!"

Su Xing knew that this silver-haired Demon Emperor probably underestimated him, not taking Su Xing, who hadn't reached Emperor Level, seriously at all.

But Su Xing's speed combined with Origin Force had indeed taught him a lesson!

"Not bad, after the Earth Sword has reached great accomplishment, I may not yet be able to truly match a Demon Emperor... but if the Earth Sword is perfected, I will certainly be able to fight the Demon Emperor on equal footing!"

"I just don't know... with my current strength, how long can I contend against a Demon Emperor?"

Su Xing was somewhat curious in his heart, his gaze shifting back to the simulation panel.

[The silver-haired Demon Emperor's heart is filled with anger, and he launches another attack at you.]

[You see him roar, his palm transforming into a beam of silver light streaking towards you.]

[This is a strike filled with the Demon Emperor's rage, and naturally, you do not dare underestimate it.]

[So you quickly raise your Protective Gang Qi, while also summoning a layer of Origin Force armor, staying vigilant at all times.]

[The silver glow lands on the Protective Gang Qi, making the entire Gang Qi tremble violently, with layers of cracks appearing.]

[Although the Gang Qi is damaged, it doesn't shatter immediately.]

[Seeing this, you breathe a sigh of relief. With your breakthrough into the late stage of the Broken Void Realm, your Origin Force is clearly more profound, and the defensive capability of your Protective Gang Qi has also improved considerably.]

[The silver-haired Demon Emperor, seeing his assault thwarted by you, becomes even angrier, and attacks you once again using his hand as a claw.]

[You respond without hesitation, wielding the Ink Ice Sword, engaging the silver-haired Demon Emperor in close combat.]

[The terrifying aftermath of the battle prevented nearby Legendary Demon Beasts from approaching at all; the earth cracked, and mountains collapsed...]

[You and the silver-haired Demon Emperor fought across three hundred li, the dreadful aftershocks of the battle causing the Demonic Beasts and Human Race you passed by to be terrified to the core.]

[After battling for hundreds of rounds, you feel that the silver-haired Demon Emperor has indeed suffered serious injuries, and his strength is not what it used to be.]

[But to defeat this silver-haired Demon Emperor right now would be nothing short of wishful thinking, given the gap in strength of a whole realm between you.]

[After fighting another hundred rounds, during your battle with the silver-haired Demon Emperor, you increasingly sense improvement in your swordsmanship.]

[Indeed, just like you previously thought, a Sword Cultivator is born for battle! It's only through combat that one can continuously break through oneself!]

[In this battle, you fought the silver-haired Demon Emperor to a draw, knowing well you took advantage of his injuries.]

[But in this grand battle, your comprehension of the Earth Sword has also deepened, so you decide to return to Beast Taming City to reflect on these insights.]

[You activate the power of speed, forcing back the silver-haired Demon Emperor with a sword strike, then stylishly depart on your sword.]

[The silver-haired Demon Emperor, wanting to give chase, couldn't due to his serious injuries, and could only watch helplessly as you disappeared into the distance.]

[After this battle, you became famous in a single encounter!]

[Alone in battle against the Demon Emperor, you not only emerged unscathed but also severed three of the silver-haired Demon Emperor's fingers.]

[You became the hero of the Beast Taming Realm, heralded as the strongest young prodigy of the millennium...]

[In contrast, the silver-haired Demon Emperor was nailed to the pillar of shame, seen as a disgrace among the Demon Emperors.]

[After this battle, the silver-haired Demon Emperor hated you even more, every day thinking of nothing but flaying you alive and crushing your bones to dust!]

[But you paid no heed to the outside world's opinion, simply wanting to assimilate the insights into swordsmanship you gained from the battle.]

[Upon returning to Beast Taming City, you announce you're going into seclusion and then enter the Spirit Field Cave, immersing yourself daily in the deep comprehension of swordsmanship.]

[Your understanding of swordsmanship rapidly progresses, and in the blink of an eye, a year passes.]

[On the eighteenth year, when you exit seclusion, although your comprehension of the Earth Sword has not yet reached perfection, you are not far from it.]

[Your comprehension of the power of speed deepens, and the sword in your hand becomes faster and faster.]

[After assimilating the previous insights, you return to the Slaughter Battlefield, hoping that real combat would enhance your swordsmanship.]

[The silver-haired Demon Emperor, upon learning of your arrival, is instantly filled with rage, wishing he could kill you right away.]

[Not long after, you get another chance to battle the silver-haired Demon Emperor.]

[You fight the silver-haired Demon Emperor for a day and a night.]

[Although the silver-haired Demon Emperor had recovered much of his injuries, he hadn't reached his peak condition.]

[And your strength had grown considerably since a year ago.]

[Thus, in this battle, the silver-haired Demon Emperor once again fails to gain any advantage over you.]

[You even kill two Legendary Demon Beasts in the process before leaving in style.]

[Afterward, every six months you would seek out the silver-haired Demon Emperor for a fight.]

[With each battle, your strength would advance, but the silver-haired Demon Emperor's injuries were also healing gradually, so the fights were evenly matched.]

[But this was precisely your goal, to find an opponent of similar strength, to continuously improve your own swordsmanship.]

[In this way, through day after day of cultivation, fighting, and comprehending swordsmanship, two years slowly passed.]

[On the twentieth year, you learned that the silver-haired Demon Emperor had brought back treasures from the Demon Race to fully recover his injuries.]

[And he had set traps everywhere, seemingly determined to kill you.]

[Moreover, the silver-haired Demon Emperor had proclaimed that he wanted another battle with you, one that would decide life and death and determine the superior fighter!]

[However, your comprehension of the Earth Sword had reached a bottleneck. You knew that crossing this bottleneck would mean the Earth Sword perfected!]

[And as a Sword Cultivator, you gradually had your own conviction.]

[Better to seek in straightness than to look for in crookedness!]

[You knew in your heart, if you lacked the courage to meet the challenge, your sword heart would never be perfect, and once the sword heart was damaged, your Sword Intent would plummet.]
