Chapter 49

By the time Ed turned to them, he only saw them retreating . He had taken note of every killing intent before entering the battle field, there was no way he was going to let them escape .

But of course, his arrogance was only so great . Those he handled were spirit picking and early spirit awaken stage cultivator . He had not attacked any of the factions or even the top ten . He was content with walking his way to the top . This battle would last for one day . But from what he heard people say, time inside the battle field was much slower than outside .

He could see that the top ten had all left and the faction leaders too . He too, did not waste time . He had fought many people, and there were non willing to fight any more . Seeing that many of the newcomers around him were scared stiff, he left too .

He decided to travel east . Where he was going, he was not sure . The dry land had a few hill-like structures around . He found himself travelling for the entire day, without seeing any body . As the sun started set, he found a spot between two hills and carved a cave with his sword and closed himself in .

Sitting in the dark, he could still see quite well . This was nothing compared to the total darkness of his first night in the Baju Valley . He a.n.a.lysed his fights so far . As far as he was concerned, those he had killed could not be considered veteran fighters . They did not fight with their head, they just swung their weapons . He wished to meet a fighter that he could fight for a long period of time .

But he knew he was not ready for them yet . He had confidence in his ability to kill them . With his heightened senses, he could see their weakness very quickly . But he did not wish to kill them . When he meets such a fighter, he wants to savour every moment and learn as he fights them . He wishes to fight them for as long as possible .

He understood that with the he was a long way from being able to draw out the fight . He had not learnt to control hos physical strength yet . When he fought, he found himself exerting too much force and killing the opponent instantly . At this rate, he would really not learn anything .

But he understood even more that the only way he could learn to precisely control his strength was to fight day and night . He felt he would come to do it with instinct .

Cultivator were here not only because it was compulsory to partic.i.p.ate every month, but the battle field is rumoured to have treasures . He had heard many talk about this . It was also a place to gain more resources . The top ten would just kill a few people to get their cultivation caves . But the factions would kill to get more resources . There were many people in their faction so they loved the new comers . Ed sat still till morning came, only then did he step outside . He came out of his make s.h.i.+ft cave and came face to face with familiar faces .

"You . " the girl before him hissed while he boy beside her smiled at Ed . They were Autumn bloom and Ku Nam . He had met them at the gates of the great spill .

"Nice spot! Would you like to join us?" Ku Nam asked with a smile . Ed noticed that there were three more people with them . Two boys and a girl . They all looked to be around the same age .

"No . why should we take him with us?" Autumn bloom refused as though Ed had begged to join them .

"Be nice . We are all from outside the demon lands . We should be nicer . " the boy said . He was probably a little older than autumn bloom, but looked younger than Ed, so it was odd seeing him act like an old man .

"I'm sorry, I like to walk alone . " Ed answered . He had no intention of staying to talk .

"We are even being nice and you still have the mind to reject?" autumn bloom said and Ed looked at her curiously . This girl must have some personality problems . Was she not the one that said she did not want him to join? He ignored her and turned to Ku Nam .

"It seems people are trying to stay out of the way, do you know where people would generally be?" Ed asked . He was hunting people . He wanted a good fight . And only people could give it to him .

"What? You want to go looking for people?" Autumn bloom asked in shock .
