One Wish to Own the World

Chapter 123 Ingroup Fighting



"Little Brother Ken, it's your turn now."

It was the sixth time it was Ken's turn, and this time slight irritation sneaked into Tobias' voice.

'I guess it's because of my luck.'

Ken thought to himself. His luck was over 300 now, so it made sense that he ran into traps less than the others. In contrast, the others faced a trap at least twice per person. Some ran into poison, some into Explosion Talismans, and there was even one room that launched projectiles at them.

Ken opened the room, and thanks to his Formation Mastery, instantly felt there was a formation inside. However, he said nothing to his teammates.

He placed one hand inside his robes and brought out a fifth-rank scroll he made himself – the Formation Suppression Scroll. It was one of the first things he learned how to make when he got access to the Formation Mastery Library of the Divine Sword Sect. After all, it did cause him some trouble at the Outer Zone.

He also easily recognized the fourth-rank formation, the Illusion Inducing Formation, albeit with a few tweaks that Ken couldn't tell their job instantly. However, it was enough to know what he was dealing with.

He entered the room and entered an illusion. As expected from the Bloodthirst Sect, the illusion included gore and terror, showing him scenes of dozens of monsters surrounding him. The tweaks were meant to set the violent scene instead of the usual fog that made people walk around in circles.

"Guys, there's a sixth-stage cultivator here!"

Ken kneeled as if he was under pressure and channeled Qi into the scroll, ready to activate it.

"He is in an illusion; it must be some type of formation!"

Tobias said and exchanged looks with Adrian.

"You guys stay out of this if you don't want to help. Only those who fight can share the spoils!"

He said and threw the Terror Talisman he prepared in hand. He took it out of his storage ring every time Ken led the raid on the rooms, hiding it behind his back and ready to throw it. This time, he finally had the chance.

Ken already activated the Suppression Scroll, deactivating the Illusion Formation that trapped him. He could break it normally too, but it'd take some time that he didn't have.

He suspected Tobias ever since the latter purchased the Terror Scroll and believed it was meant to be used against him. He scoffed at the idea of using a bloodlust item against him. His bloodlust was off the charts.

At that moment, Tobias and Adrian radiated their bloodlust to pressure Ken, adding as much they can to the pressure he was going through from the talisman.

"Attack now, he must be stunned by the pressure!"

Tobias consumed enough pills to develop bloodlust as if he killed 80 thousand people, while Adrian digested only slightly less than that. Since Ken didn't take any pills, they believed his bloodlust couldn't be as potent as theirs. 

ƥαṇdαs ηθνε| It didn't seem plausible that a young child managed to kill tens of thousands of people, and even if he did, it wouldn't be enough to resist the talisman.

The two used two medium-range attacks; they didn't want to enter the formation and get stuck in the illusion along with Ken.

'Cloud Running.'

Ken twisted his body, dodging two violent streams of Qi that were moving toward him. 

"He activated a Formations Suppression Scroll!"

Tobias shouted in fear when he realized Ken wasn't under the effect of the formation anymore. However, it was too late to regret his actions, and his greed blinded him from seeing his dire situation. Seeing Ken buying the apples without batting an eyelash made him jealous of the kid's wealth, and he wanted it for himself.

"He is still under the Terror Talisman!"

Adrian shouted half desperately as he dashed to clash with Ken. Using techniques only helped when they could overpower the enemy, else it is just a way to waste Qi really fast.

Since Ken could dodge two medium-range attacks that were supposed to be sneak attacks, he believed Ken could do it again. He first had to corner Ken before pressuring him with techniques.

Ken took a fighting stance, unbothered by the intense bloodlust he was under from the talisman. Although he could overpower his enemies with techniques, it'd be harder in a battle against two men that were used to working with each other; they could manage his attacks together.

"Wait guys, that's insane, stop fighting!"

Daisy shouted in anger, but everyone ignored her and kept fighting. Meanwhile, Tiara stood motionlessly by the side, unwilling to take a side, and Bryce watched the fight with conflicted eyes.

Within the confines of the empty stone room, the clash of blades echoed, filling the 5-meter long and 5-meter wide space. The room's cold stone walls absorbed the sound and echoed it back, amplifying the intensity of the battle.

Ken's flexible sword arced through the air, its sleek form carving a path with lethal precision. The confined space demanded nimble footwork and swift reflexes. He spun, twisted, and evaded, utilizing every inch of the room to his advantage.

Tobias and Adrian responded with synchronized fluidity. Their swords moved as one, blocking and parrying Ken's strikes with remarkable precision. The ringing of metal against metal reverberated through the room as they expertly defended themselves.

Blows were exchanged in rapid succession. Ken's flexible sword coiled and whipped, striking at different angles and exploiting any opening, utilizing its elasticity to the maximum. His strikes were swift and unpredictable, seeking to disrupt the coordinated defense of Tobias and Adrian.

The atmosphere crackled with Qi energy as the combatants poured their strength into every strike. 

"Guys, we were friends for decades, help us! Bryce, you promised to join!"

Tobias shouted to his comrades who watched the fight silently. Bryce felt conflicted; he planned on participating in the ambush, but he didn't want to join the fray after seeing Ken was unaffected by the talisman. 

The fifth-rank talisman was their greatest weapon against the monster that killed 10,000 disciples of a top sect a few days ago.

The walls of the room reverberated with the thud of bodies colliding and the ring of metal meeting metal. 

Tobias launched a powerful overhead strike, his sword descending with brute force. Ken twisted his body, narrowly evading the blow. He retaliated with a quick thrust, aiming for Tobias' exposed side, but Adrian deftly intercepted the attack, their teamwork unbroken.

The room forced Ken to adapt his movements, relying on his agility and strategic thinking. He used the limited space to his advantage, utilizing quick bursts of speed and sudden changes in direction to evade and counter his enemies' attacks, sometimes even by jumping on the walls.

"Help us!"

Tobias shouted stressfully when he finally suffered the first injury in the battle. Ken found an opening and used Slash 81 in 1, trying to decapitate Adrian. Adrian quickly used a parry sword technique, but the power was too strong. Tobias tried to help him and got wounded in his place.

"I'm sorry, but Ken is my friend from my sect, and I didn't join the Divine Sword Sect officially yet. I can't join either side."

Tiara said with an apologetic voice, prompting a smile from Ken's lips. He was starting to take a liking to the selfish woman.
