Chapter 273: The Power Unleashed

Dave could feel the immense power coursing through his veins, and his curiosity led him to inquire about the status of an Imperial King from the system. While their status was higher than his, the difference in raw power wasn't insurmountable. With the utilization of his skills, Dave knew he could overpower them.

To his astonishment, Dave had already comprehended the Law of Lightning, a feat typically achievable only by True Saints, as Yudi had mentioned. His comprehension had reached an impressive 40%. Testing his newfound ability, Dave flicked his hand, conjuring a bolt of lightning, although his control over it was not yet perfect.

Seeking further mastery, he retreated into his personal space, where time flowed differently. Within the sanctuary of this space, he realized he lacked a formidable lightning technique. However, a revelation struck him—he could infuse his lightning into his sword and wield it as a devastating weapon. Closing his eyes, Dave delved deep into his understanding of the sword, drawing upon his status as a Sword Venerable to create his own unique sword technique.

After two days of intense focus, Dave opened his eyes and exhaled deeply. His sword was now enveloped in a flurry of lightning particles. Gripping it tightly, he unleashed a powerful slash upon the serene forest. In an instant, a purple lightning-infused slash struck, obliterating the entire forest. The ground was torn asunder, bearing a colossal sword-shaped scar. Lingering sparks of lightning remained, potent enough to fatally electrocute anyone unfortunate enough to make contact.

Dave's excitement soared as he realized that this technique consumed minimal mana, thanks to the Law of Lightning. Unlike other abilities, laws drew upon natural energy, although Dave's limited strength prevented him from harnessing a substantial amount. Nevertheless, he could utilize his Purple Lightning Sword Technique thrice a day, which sufficed for his current needs.

"Ding! You've created your own sword technique," the system chimed, prompting Dave to name it. After a brief moment of contemplation, he settled on "Purple Lightning Sword Technique," a fitting moniker considering its appearance and his near-death experience during the purple lightning tribulation.

Glancing at his status, Dave noticed that the new technique fell under the category of the Law of Lightning. With a satisfied smirk, he returned to the mansion and resumed exploring the system.

His sin points had accumulated sufficiently to upgrade his other upgradable techniques, most notably the Sword Dragon Technique.

Lv.15: Sword Dragon Technique (Upgrade Requirements: Level 60)

[Ding! Do you want to upgrade your Sword Dragon technique to the maximum level?]

[Required Sin Points: 200 Million]

Dave was taken aback by the realization that his sword technique had already reached its maximum level. The system clarified that the technique itself was inferior, but the system's influence had boosted its strength slightly. Furthermore, the system informed Dave that acquiring a more formidable sword technique would enable him to fuse it with the current one, resulting in a more potent skill.

Without hesitation, Dave initiated the upgrade. The system cautioned him that all the skills within the Sword Dragon Technique bracket would merge into one, creating a superior and enhanced technique.

[Ding! Reducing 200 million Sin points]

[Sword Dragon Technique (Max)]

[Fusing all the techniques within the Sword Dragon Technique]

[<Sword Will>]

[<Sword Manifestation>]

[<Sword Master>]

[<Dragon Slash>]

[<Sword Apocalypse>]

[<Wrath of the Sword Dragon>]

[<Sword Bleed>]

[<Thunder Blades>]

[<Silent Slash>]

[<Sword Deflection>]

[Ding! Completed]

[A new skill acquired: Dragon Slayer—a sword technique created by Dave Alexander that can suppress anyone with Dragon Bloodline by 30%.]

Dave was astounded by the unexpected discovery of a powerful technique within the Sword Dragon Technique.

The Dragon Slayer skill not only weakened opponents with Dragon Bloodline but also impeded their regenerative abilities when injured by this technique.

As the system had foretold, all the characteristics of the merged skills were now incorporated into Dragon Slayer. Dave couldn't help but relish the thought of facing arrogant dragons.

He noticed that the name of his Sword Dragon Technique was no longer displayed in the panel, replaced by the Dragon Slayer Technique. It dawned on him that his father's initial teachings had finally evolved to a higher level, becoming stronger than ever before.

To further upgrade this technique, he needed an enormous amount of Sin Points, as the system had informed him. Additionally, he had to comprehend related techniques specific to the Dragon Slayer Technique. Not just any technique would suffice; it had to be intricately connected to his current skill.

As he pondered the potential reception he would receive from the dragons, considering his association with Draco, his pet dragon, Dave remained unfazed. If they proved hostile, he would face them without backing down. Conversely, if they treated him with kindness, he would reciprocate in kind. Calming his thoughts, he continued with the upgrade process.

Lv.20: Assassin Lord (Upgrading Requirements: Level 60)

[Do you want to upgrade the Assassin Lord to its maximum level at this time?]

[Required Sin Points: 500 Million]

Dave recognized that the Assassin Lord skill was one of his innate abilities, bestowed upon him from the beginning. This indicated that its evolution would not halt here.

"Yes," he affirmed.

[Ding! Upgrading the Assassin Lord]

[Reducing 500 Million Sin Points]

[Ding! The Assassin Lord Skill has reached a certain level and is ready to evolve]

[Ding! Assassin Lord has evolved into Shadow Monarch]

[Ding! All the skills below Assassin Lord will upgrade and merge to become stronger]

• <Disguise>

• <Assassination>

• <Shadow Steps>

• <Shadow Mark>

• <Killing Intent>

• <Poison Needle Thrower>

• <Penetration>

• <Shadow Bind>

• <Shadow Clone>

• <Aura Mask>

[Fusing...]

Dave was stunned by his unexpected stroke of luck. The skill upgrade promised to deliver enhanced abilities, making him more formidable. Patiently awaiting the fusion process, he watched as the system completed the task in just two minutes.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for acquiring new and upgraded skills under Shadow Monarch]
