Chapter 125: Chapter 125- Fooling Himself...

BANG!!!

BANG!!!

BANG!!!

SCREEECH!!!

The Nian beast seemed to have gone mad, it hit, scratched, and clawed at the cocoon Sol was in.

"THAT ISN’T YOURS!!! DO YOU KNOW HOW LONG I’VE BEEN WAITING TO GET THAT LEGACY RUNE?!! HOW DARE A BASTARD LIKE YOU COME AND TAKE IT?!! BASTARD GIVE IT BACK!! GIVE IT BACK!! GIVE IT BACK!! GIVE IT BACK!!!"

In between the loud impacts and screeching, the hoarse and distorted voice of the Nian beast could be heard screaming with anger and fury.

Tens of thousands of years? Hundreds of thousands? Over a million years?

How would the Nian beast know for how long he had been trapped in here doing everything he could to get that Legacy Rune?

Even before he was trapped in the Palace the Nian beast was trying to get that Legacy Rune.

His Innate Ability to swap identity with someone was extremely rare among creatures like him. But it wasn’t all that powerful, it had a significant flaw where he was unable to obtain someone’s cultivation and comprehension when he swapped with them.

That was something the heavens would never allow. If he truly had the ability to take someone’s cultivation like that, he wouldn’t be the only one of his kind to be alive. His species would have conquered this planet and enslaved everyone on it a long time ago if that were the case.

But here he was suffering this injustice.

"BASTARD, I SAID GET OUT!!!"

The Nian beast roared and finally, the cocoon showed signs of cracking.

"GET OUT!!!"

BANG!!!

The cocoon exploded and sent a shockwave out that caused intense ripples to appear in the void.

Everything shook wildly as if an earthquake with a magnitude of 9.5 had just occurred.

"Damn it! This fucking bastard, what’s your deal?!!"

Sol had never used a cuss word before.

He was a good boy, and he just never feel the need to as he had never let his anger get the better of him.

If he was sad you would.

If he was slightly upset you would know.

But if he was angry you’d never know... unless you pissed him off beyond what he could cope with.

Sol being friends with someone like Mar-Dule caused some bad coping mechanisms to deal with anger to rub off on him.

Mar-Dule was well known for spouting the most obscene and low-blow profanities some people had ever heard when he was in a violent rage.

Sol had seen him flip out a few times at the Martial Hall Pagoda.

In this situation, Sol was like a badly influenced kid as instinctively began swearing like Mar-Dule because of the Nian beast destroying the cocoon.

The Nian beast was previously gearing up to charge at Sol in his anger, but it froze when it heard Sol cursing at it.

The cursing was so vile and hurtful that if the Nian beast had eyes it would have stared at Sol with shock and hatred.

"What? Did your Mother **** and *** before ****?!! Is that why you’re such a fucking butthole?!!"

Sol’s chest was heaving up and down violently after he stopped his bombardment of cursing.

His face was slightly pale and he was barely wearing any clothes due to the explosion of the cocoon. But he had his large golden bow in hand and his cultivation aura was vigorously swirling around him.

He had managed to reverse the Grand Formation Array and lifted the restriction on his cultivation, but he wasn’t able to fully accept the Legacy Inheritance.

Just a bit longer and he would have been able to combine the Legacy Rune and his Master’s Seven Runic Paths to Samsara rune.

Sol was frustrated.

It wasn’t easy to combine these two Runes.

He realized that despite the Legacy Rune being more sophisticated with the ability to self-learn, his Master’s Seven Runic Paths to Samara rune uniqueness came from the fact that it contained a ridiculous amount of Runes.

The Seven Runic Paths to Samsara could be called a Formation Array, just like the Legacy Rune, by craving it inside his body Sol would be able to easily conjure these runes with a gesture.

But this complex structure made it difficult to combine it with the Legacy Rune which was already carved on his body.

However, Sol was lucky since the Legacy Rune’s specialty was overlapping and linking runes together. This made it slightly easier for him to combine the two together.

But before Sol could finish this process, this bastard came and interrupt him.

At the moment he had merely combined half the two Runes together.

Glaring at the Nian beast Sol growled.

"Do you think I’m scared of you?"

Sol hefted his large golden bow and then aimed it towards the Nian beast.

The Nian beast released an enraged screech before charging at Sol.

Sol knocked back the bow and a three meters long white arrow made of non-elemental Aether Energy, materialize between it in an instant.

BANG!!!

Sol didn’t bother trying to keep his strength under control. He released everything he had in this arrow and it created a shockwave that sent his hair whipping about.

The large white arrow practically pierced the void and appeared in front of the Nian beast. However, despite the arrow’s speed, the Nian beast suddenly twisted its slender body and easily dodged it.

It slithered across the large ballroom and appeared in front of Sol.

"Tsk!"

Sol clicked his tongue before he leap out of the way.

The Nian beast’s claws demolished the ground where he previously stood.

After rolling a few times on the ground, Sol jumped up and retreated towards the ballroom’s double doors.

He glance at the damage the Nian beast did to the ground and his scalp tingled.

His anger at this point had diminished by quite a bit and the danger this thing posed slapped him in the face as a reminder.

However, Sol was still more than upset that he was interrupted, so he knock back his bow once more.

A deep crimson arrow releasing scorching heat materialized between the bow.

Sol knew his Master warn him to never manipulate Aether elements besides his Wood Aether. However, if Sol went by his Master’s specific words, then he didn’t want him to manipulate more Aether elements because it might compromise his cultivation of Wood-type Aether.

But as long as Sol didn’t absorb any other Aether elements into his body, then he could create arrows from any of the elements without compromising his cultivation progress.

With a blazing fury, red flames spread to cover several meters around Sol from the arrow.

Sol suddenly stomped on the ground and the ankle bracelet on his right leg detached with a loud bang.

The arrow seemed to explode with more intensity and its flames spread several more meters in diameter.

This took time to explain but in reality, the formation of the arrow happened extremely quickly.

The Nian beast had just turned around after destroying the ground before it charged at Sol.

BANG!!!

Sol relased the arrow and this time the Nian beast was unable to dodge it and was hit.

Instantly, fire engulfed the entire ballroom and transformed the place into a fiery inferno.

Sol stood inside the arrow’s flames unharmed, but as the shockwave blew against him, something in the corner of his eyes caught his attention.

"What’s this?"

Sol grabbed at the yellow object, but immediately as he did he realized it was his hair.

"Huh? Wait, why is my hair golden?"

Sol spun around in circles trying to look at his hair.

He knew something was different after he saw those memories of his Father. It felt like his bloodline had awakened somewhat. But he hadn’t expected a change like this after taking off the bracelet.

Right now not only was Sol able to boost his physical strength when he took off his bracelets, but his bloodline energy could increase the strength of his Martial Skills.

In addition, his hair look like it would change colors when he released the seal on his bloodline.

Sol wondered if this would become a problem in the future.

He figure it wasn’t normal for someone’s hair to change to a bright golden color during a power-up mid-battle.

Suddenly, Sol recalled the child he saw in his memories, he had golden hair too. And without looking in a mirror, Sol knew his eyes had turned golden as well.

Though that wasn’t all, a faint outline of a golden sun etched between a black crescent moon could be seen on his forehead.

After Sol acknowledge these changes, he turned to look at the still-burning ballroom.

His attack was extremely powerful for a Mortal Realm cultivator who had only just opened the acupoints in two of his limbs, but he wasn’t sure it was enough to harm the Nian beast significantly.

Just as Sol thought that, a loud screech echoed from the fire and the Nian beast slithered its way out.

Sol’s face twitched when he saw it.

Not even a scratch was on its grotesque body!

Sol knew the Nian beast was a whole Realm above him in cultivation, and he never once thought he was strong enough to defeat it, but his attack couldn’t even leave a single mark on its body?!!

How was that possible, was he just fooling himself all this while to think he was strong when in reality he was still weak?
