Chapter 172 Entering The Last Floor

Rishi just smiled before using 'Sword Dash' in the air. He also commanded his three chains to form a triangle boundary to separate him and the two demons.

The chains did as they were told; three chains moved like shadows of snakes and formed a circular cage around two opponents, separating them from the rest. Rishi appeared before one of them and connected with one of his attacks on the neck while his other attack was blocked.

He disappeared by using 'Sword Dash' again and appeared behind the second demon and used the second form of the Triangle Slash Sword technique, 'Triangle Form,' to hack the opponent into pieces before the first opponent could attack him. Three pointy daggers came from three different sides and pierced through him, paralyzing his whole body.

Rishi appeared again and hacked off the head of the defenseless opponent, beheading him without giving him any chance to even cry. When he removed the chains, he saw multiple angry opponents throwing spears at him again.

"How many times have I told you it will not work on me?" he said before using 'Shadow Walk' and disappearing from his place. The Corpse Demons were unaware that the enemy they were looking for was lurking in their own shadows.

Rishi looked for the perfect angle before using the Triangle Form' of the triangle sword technique to target four corpse demons standing close to each other.

His sword swung in a sliver light as he made a star symbol in front of him at an unhuman speed; only the blur of his hands was visible while he was swinging his sword. His sword stopped, and a star symbol made up of strange silver energy shone and blasted the first opponent into nothingness.

The rest of the opponents tried to dodge, but six separate sword slashes came one after another to chop them into pieces. One opponent got accidentally caught in the range of the attack. He cried in agony when he realized that he had lost his right arm, and his whole body started shaking when he looked at the opponent in front of him.

The rest of the corpse demons also got enraged, and they charged at Rishi together to eliminate him as soon as possible. When Rishi saw this, there was only a grin on his face. He approached them instead of retreating, not stepping back even for a second.

Like he had done previously, when he saw that the situation was under control, he only used the 'Chains of Reaper' and 'Quick Draw' skills to train as much as he could. The fight went on for many minutes, during which Rishi defeated them one by one.

He slashed the head of the last opponent caught in chains before falling on his back. He took out the spear from his chest and cried in pain. He took some deep breaths before laughing like a maniac, "That was fun," he punched the ground, "but I was unable to utilize my strength properly again."

He closed his eyes and started reviewing all his mistakes again. He could easily dodge the spear coming at him but instead tried to use the chain to defend it. He missed the timing and got poked by a spear; he could only blame himself for trying to perform stunts in serious fights.

He looked at his state; he was covered in injuries from top to bottom. His clothes were in such bad condition that even a homeless person with only one set of clothes would throw them away, never having a single thought of stitching them to buy some more time.

He sighed and waited patiently to recover completely. Now with his regeneration ability, he decided to fight by taking as many risks as possible. Fighting like this left him with multiple injuries after the battle, but they were all worth it when he looked at the improvement.

He jumped back to his feet and looked at the portal, which was glowing very brightly. He took a deep breath before taking steps to get closer to it; this was the portal to the final floor.

He was just a meter from the portal, preparing himself for what he had to face on the final floor when a burst of red light scattered from the portal and sucked him in.

He opened his eyes and discovered he was at the top of the tower; there were torches burning all around him, and he was standing in the center of a circle made up of white paint. He heard a strange cry that sent chills all over his body. He turned only to discover a giant humanoid shadow coming at him.

There were the skeleton remains of many beings in his path; every time he took a step, he crushed the bone in his path. From wherever he passed by, only dust remained. He looked at Rishi and opened his big mouth, and cried again. The impact was so large that the wind started blowing very fast, and his clothes blew away in the opposite direction.

It was different from any of the horned corpse demons he had faced; it had three long horns, and its long white hair was creating a big mane on his head before extending to the ground. There was a crown made up of bones and feathers on his head, and below his eyes were lines painted in black. He had a long, pointy nose, while his ears were also long and pointy.

He looked Rishi in the eyes, and for the first time, Rishi saw him up close. His big red eyes shining in a red glow became visible to him, and inside his mouth were many sets of long and sharp teeth. His big black tongue was visible when he cried again to intimidate Rishi.

From the look of it, it didn't look like he was in a hurry. He was carrying two big machetes that were joined together by a big chain. On his chest was armor made up of bones.

At first, Rishi was intimidated by the seven-foot giant in front of him. Walking with a slouching back, from the looks of his face, he knew that he would be chewed alive if he lost, but instead of getting scared and intimidated by his presence, his blood boiled due to excitement.

He was the type of opponent who would be very tough to defeat even when using full strength; this made him a perfect training buddy. Rishi, who was here to Improve, was craving for a tough fight that would make him understand his mistakes.
