Chapter 503: Another Sect Mission [7]
The bandit leader, clenched his war hammer tightly, his eyes narrowing as Zhao Tian advanced.
His men were already dead or dying, the cave echoing with the faint crackle of lightning and the dripping of water.
Desperation and rage filled his veins as he glared at Zhao Tian, who stood there calm and composed, his lightning-imbued sword gleaming in the dim light of the cave.
"AAAGHHHH!!!" With a guttural roar, the leader raised his hammer high, the veins in his muscular arms bulging as he infused the weapon with his earth elemental energy.
*THOOOOM* The ground beneath them rumbled as jagged spikes of rock shot up from the floor, aimed straight at Zhao Tian.
Boom!
The spikes hurtled toward Zhao Tian, and In an instant, his body became a blur of motion, disappearing and reappearing in a flash of lightning as he effortlessly dodged the attack.
The spikes crashed into the cave walls, sending shards of rock flying in every direction, but Zhao Tian was already on the move.
"GRR!" The bandit leader growled, swinging his hammer with all his might.
The ground beneath him shook again as he summoned more of his earth energy, causing the entire cave to tremble.
*WOOOSSHHH* Massive boulders detached from the walls and ceiling, swirling around him like a shield.
"Die!" the leader roared, hurling one of the massive boulders straight at Zhao Tian.
But Zhao Tian, darted forward, closing the distance between them in a split second.
His sword, crackling with lightning energy, hummed in his hand as he slashed through the air, splitting the boulder in half with a single strike.
*thoom* *thoom* The two halves crashed to the ground, sending tremors through the cave, but Zhao Tian didn't stop.
His eyes locked onto the bandit leader, who was already preparing another attack, his war hammer glowing with a deep, brown energy.
With a savage grin, the leader slammed the hammer down, sending a shockwave of raw power rippling through the cave floor.
*thoom* *thoom* Huge chunks of rock shot upward, creating a wave of destruction aimed directly at Zhao Tian.
Zhao Tian's lightning energy flared, and he thrust his sword into the ground.
The entire cave seemed to light up as the blade acted as a conduit, sending a surge of lightning through the earth.
The wave of rock disintegrated, reduced to rubble before it could reach him.
*woosh* Before the bandit leader could react, Zhao Tian was upon him.
In a flash of lightning, Zhao Tian leapt into the air, his sword raised high.
Time seemed to slow as he darted toward the leader, his body wreathed in lightning energy.
The bandit leader swung his hammer upward in a desperate attempt to block the attack, but it was too late.
Zhao Tian's blade, charged with the full force of his lightning elemental power, slammed into the hammer with a deafening *CLANG!*
*crack* The hammer shattered under the force of the blow, sending fragments of metal flying in all directions.
The bandit leader's eyes widened in shock as Zhao Tian's sword cut through the remnants of his weapon, slicing downward with unstoppable momentum.

Slash!
The blade tore through the bandit leader's chest, sending a surge of lightning through his body.
"ARGHHHH!" The leader's muscles spasmed uncontrollably as the electricity coursed through him, paralyzing him where he stood.
His eyes rolled back in his head as he tried to summon his earth energy, but it was too late... Zhao Tian's attack had already severed the flow of his power.
With one final twist of his blade, Zhao Tian sent the bandit leader crashing to the ground, his body smoking and twitching from the lingering effects of the lightning.
Soon, Zhao Tian absorbed his soul and his eyelashes trembled with dark energy '3rd level of Stellar Essence Stage.'
'I need to reach the 5th level to be the Inner court disciple, isn't it?'
*tap* At this time, Li Xueyan quickly reached there and saw the bloody mess around the cave "Woah.. Tian, I am surprised you managed to kill him."
"The rumors I heard were true huh... that you actually bullied all of the new outer disciplines that day."
She smiled softly, the cold edge in her expression fading as she walked over to him, wiping a small bead of water from her cheek.
Zhao Tian slashed his sword wiping the blood away from it and glanced back at her, returning her smile.
"Shall we return?"
"Yeah... let's slice off the head and leave."
With a nod, Zhao Tian stepped forward and sliced the head of the bandit leader and put it in a large pouch, storing it in his storage ring.
...
It was already afternoon, as both Zhao Tian and Li Xueyan returned to the Sect hall and submitted the head of the bandit leader.
"Good work..."
The receptionist accepted their disciple tokens with a smile on her face and inserted them into the device.
"The credits for this mission is 7000 credits and it would be split in half between you. 3500 credits for each."
After completing the procedure, the receptionist returned the tokens to them.
Looking at his disciple token, Zhao Tian frowned slightly 'I gained a lot in this mission as I gained some souls... and some credits.'
'i should visit the Auction house tomorrow and pill shop in the capital city.'
As he was thinking, Li Xueyan gently tapped his shoulder and asked "Shall we go to the cafeteria to eat something?"
"Tian..."
However, at this time, another voice was heard and Zhao Tian turned to look at Li Jia who was walking toward him.
Li Jia glanced at Li Xueyan and hurriedly grabbed Zhao Tian's hand pulling him from there "Jia?"
Li Jia's fingers tightly clutched his hand and she muttered in a low tone "Please.. Tian, come with me."
Zhao Tian let out a sigh in his heart and let himself be pulled by her.
Li Xueyan looked at them and a sigh escaped her lips as she made her way toward the cafeteria "She doesn't want me to get close to Tian?"
'ARGHH!'
Li Jia who was pulling Zhao Tian through the open area, felt her heart twisting in pain as if something was eating away her heart.
'U-Urghh.. I need to endure it... a bit.'
