From Sword to Slaughter: Evolution

What's going on!?

Why is this sword starting to tremble!?

At that moment, some information surged into his mind:

[Rage]: Enter a state of fury for a short time, fully enhancing all abilities.

Is this... a new skill!?

Liu Yi's eyes widened as he processed the information flooding his mind.

His gaze was filled with shock.

"Haha!"

"Divine Rank Two-Star!"

Ye Fan grew excited as he carefully examined his system panel, which had completely changed!

[Host]: Ye Fan

[Sword Name]: Ye Fan (Dark & Light)

[Grade]: Divine Rank (Two-Star)

[Active Skills]:

 Phantom Dance (Divine Rank Three-Star): A dazzling sword dance that deals massive damage to enemies.

 Blood Burst (Divine Rank Three-Star): Converge all the blood energy in the body to create an extremely powerful explosion (must be used in the "Bloodthirsty Frenzy" state).

 Nether Flame Soul Slash (Divine Rank Three-Star): Your slash summons a powerful white flame from the netherworld, dealing intense fire damage.

 Hell Cross Array (Divine Rank Three-Star): Summon a powerful blood cross array, greatly boosting the attack power of the sword master within the formation and enhancing the effect of "Bloodthirsty Frenzy."

 Annihilation Force (Divine Rank Three-Star): Release overwhelming power to kill all living beings within a mile radius (effective only against beings weaker than the user).

...

Upon looking further down, all the skills had become Divine Rank Three-Star!

Indeed, the sword had now reached Divine Rank Two-Star! And due to the influence of the Amplification skill, all of the sword's abilities had upgraded to Divine Rank Three-Star!

With the leap of one star rank, the sword's skills would become even more formidable!

Ye Fan couldn't help but feel a bit excited.

It had been so long, and finally, the sword had leveled up again!

"So, it seems that now, the way to raise the sword's star rank is by learning new skills!"

"But the next upgrade requires 50 billion evolution points!"

Ye Fan checked the system and saw that the next skill would require a staggering 50 billion experience points to learn!

How was he supposed to gather that much experience?

Just thinking about it gave Ye Fan a bit of a headache.

But it was only a matter of time.

As long as he could kill those Divine Kings, who knows how many billions of evolution points he would get?

Thinking this, Ye Fan felt a bit relieved.

Moreover, that Thunder God King had almost destroyed him once before.

Thinking of this, a terrifying killing intent emanated from Ye Fan's sword.

He must seek revenge on that Thunder God King!

But for now, his strength was still insufficient.

He had to continue ascending in star rank!

"Lord Sword Spirit, you've become even stronger!" Liu Yi said excitedly to the sword.

"Hmm, it's acceptable," Ye Fan responded indifferently.

Ye Fan didn't speak much with Liu Yi.

After all, he was the spirit of a Divine Sword—too much chatter would damage the image of a divine weapon.

Boom—

At that moment, the large doors nearby were suddenly broken open!

A group of figures appeared at the doorway!

"Liu Yi!!!"

Zhao Zhen'er also appeared at the entrance.

Her eyes were fixed on the long sword in Liu Yi's hand, which was radiating a terrifying aura, and her expression immediately darkened.

On the ground beside Liu Yi, there was clearly a corpse.

The body had been sliced so badly that its original appearance was completely unrecognizable.

But Zhao Zhen'er was certain—it was the body of An Yan.

"You actually killed our Immortal Cloud Sect's alchemist!"

Zhao Zhen'er gritted her teeth as she spoke.

Alchemists were extremely rare, even in the Martial God Realm.

A good alchemist could produce numerous pills for the sect, greatly accelerating the disciples' cultivation.

Moreover, alchemy was far more difficult than cultivation itself—it required immense talent.

Seeing An Yan's death now, Zhao Zhen'er felt as though her heart was bleeding.

After all, this was the alchemist her father had spent so long training, who was meant to stay permanently with the Immortal Cloud Sect!

"He poisoned my mother to death," Liu Yi said coldly, his gaze fixed on Zhao Zhen'er.

"Your mother was just a useless woman!"

"A waste like her, half-dead anyway—dying outright isn't better!?"

"Why would you kill our sect's alchemist over such a trivial matter!?" Zhao Zhen'er roared.

"Trivial matter?"

"You call this a trivial matter? Hahaha!"

Hearing her words, Liu Yi burst into laughter.

The people around him, hearing his laughter, couldn't help but feel a chill run down their spines.

Their bodies trembled slightly.

Even the two warriors who had run to report earlier were now hiding behind the other sect disciples, their eyes filled with fear.

They never expected that Liu Yi, in such a short time, would have even killed An Yan!

Although An Yan was primarily an alchemist, his martial talent wasn't that weak.

Even so, he had been a Martial Saint-level warrior.

Yet he had been chopped to pieces by Liu Yi.

Seeing the corpse on the ground, they couldn't help but imagine their own fate, and their bodies shook.

No, it wouldn't happen—they wouldn't end up like this.

Even if Liu Yi was strong, he couldn't possibly take on all 600 disciples of the Immortal Cloud Sect!

Now, over 600 disciples from the Immortal Cloud Sect had gathered here.

They had completely surrounded the Alchemy Pavilion!

"If this isn't a trivial matter, then what is!?"

"Liu Yi, you worthless trash! I've had enough of you!" Zhao Zhen'er continued to shout.

"I want to..."

"I want to divorce you!" Liu Yi interrupted coldly before she could finish speaking.

"What did you say!?"

Zhao Zhen'er's eyes widened in disbelief at Liu Yi's words.

This worthless man—this worthless man was actually saying he wanted to divorce her!

"You dare court death!!!"

Zhao Zhen'er had never been humiliated like this.

Especially by Liu Yi, who had always been submissive, and now he dared to say such words in front of so many people!

"Kill him!"

"Kill him for me!!!" Zhao Zhen'er screamed furiously.

The disciples of Immortal Cloud Sect behind her had already drawn their long swords and battle blades.

However, they still hesitated slightly.

"He killed our sect's alchemist! A life for a life—kill him!" Zhao Zhen'er commanded furiously.

"This is my order. Whatever the consequences, I will bear them alone!"

Her face contorted with rage.

"Kill this ungrateful traitor!"

At this point, with a roar from one of the warriors, a group of disciples charged directly at Liu Yi, who stood not far away!
