Swoosh!
A humanoid silhouette was sliced in two instantly, its body parts falling to the ground as if they were lifeless to begin with.
"Hah."
Next to the body a young man sighs in relief, he was of medium build, less than average height, with dark hair, brown eyes and a light brown skin tone.
Normally a person his age should be filled with the vigorous nature of youth, however this young man appeared somewhat more mature. His heaving chest and deep breaths revealed that he was tired.
His expression displayed indifference, his faced hardened by constant battle. He was brandishing a sword; this sword was covered in blood.
Surrounding him were approximately 50 or so corpses, littering the floor.
"Damn, these guys didn't give me enough experience! These demons are too weak; I just wasted five minutes for nothing!"
After muttering to himself the man returned his katana to its scabbard and checked his body, to ensure he was all in one piece. He was pleased with the results, for his white robes were spotless. There were no cuts, dents, not a single speck of any sort on them, not even a drop of blood. It was almost as if he hadn't been in a fight at all! After realizing that nothing was wrong, he started looking around.
"Ah, I never did notice the surroundings. The moment I entered this place I was fighting!"
The young man gasped at the immensity of the room, it was a large circular hall, with the diameter of an entire building. Its height stretched as far as the eye could see, it's black walls covered in ancient looking golden runes.
"Right it is time to go face the boss."
After taking in the view, the man slapped his own face and started taking steps forward, these steps however were not normal.
The moment he took a step forward a sheet of ice, half a meter in area, would form beneath his foot. Every time he took a step forward this occurred, and a new sheet of ice would form, eventually creating a flight of stairs, coiling upwards, made entirely from ice.
After a while the boy was out of sight, the steps turned into a vapor and dispersed. The floor was empty, besides the bodies left by the young man. Behind the bodies was an open door, if one was to go through that door, a very large, long cave would be found. The cave was seemingly normal, with the exception of the floor, every single inch of which was covered in blood.
The dismembered body parts of seemingly humanoid creatures littered its entire length, forming heaps the size of houses. All these body parts looked as though they were cut apart cleanly, by a blade, a very sharp blade. On close inspection these parts were twitching, with minute movements, as if they had been alive a few minutes ago...

...The voice suddenly went silent. The world suddenly stopped. All that was moving stilled, even the birds were frozen in their flight. The color drained from the world, becoming monochrome, black and white."What!"Will was again surprised and left bewildered at what was happening around him. What seemed to be a man in dark oriental style robes appeared in front of Will, he was taller than Will, and wore a red dragon's face mask. It was Modus. There was something intriguing, yet daunting about his presence. Will immediately could tell that this man was not a normal person, he was powerful. His very being exuded an aura of supercilious authority."I am Modus," said the darkly clad man."Who are you?" Will was brought out of his paralysis of bewilderment."As I said, I am Modus. Understand this –I hate repeating myself." The man replied.Will was nervous; he was not sure how he should deal with the situation. He ra

As soon as Modus faded away, the world melted into its usual color and time began to flow again. Will still stood by himself in the middle of the street. He acted rationally when everything was happening, but the reality of what happened suddenly hit him. He felt as though he had taken morphine. He was numb with euphoria. His worries melted away and his mind swayed as though he was floating in water. Yet, he started to wonder what he should do next."Become immortal? How am I supposed to do that?"Will was familiar with the concept of ascension into immortality. His Chinese novels heavily included this idea as part of the main story lines. Unfortunately, in most of the novels that Will reads, this was a feat regarded as almost impossible. The characters that were able to achieve this state had a lot of help from other characters and developed surpassing talents."Sigh"
Solitary Sword Sovereign The Art of the Solitary Sword Sovereign
The information that flowed into Will's mind was about cultivation. There were three types of energy that a human was able to use: Qi, mana, and yuan. Qi was the energy of the body. Mana was the energy of the spirit. Yuan energy is a fusion of the two. There are different yuan energies, one that is primarily Qi, one that is primarily mana, and one that is a balance of the two. Once a player has reached a certain level of skill and ability, they are able to use yuan energy. The closer a player's yuan energy is to a perfect balance of the two, the better and more affective the energy is. It is when yuan energy is at a perfect balance, having equal amounts of Qi and mana; it is considered very high quality. These players are then called a practitioner. Practitioners have a greater advantage of other players who cultivate and absorb energy from the universe, because they are able to use both types of energies.Cultivation is

...Next thing Will knew, he was in a beautiful garden. It was decorated with beautiful flowers of all kinds. There was a big pond near where he was standing, and next to it was a table with two chairs. On the tables were delicacies, food like sandwiches, pigs in a blanket, cheese and many other things."This is..." Will was stunned by the sight. Normally he wasn't much for aesthetic beauty, but he couldn't help but marvel at the sight, especially the food. Will was a serious glutton. He loved any food, so long as it had starch, cheese and meat, especially meat.Will was once taught an African word by his best friend. It was nyama. It meant meat. Will noticed that his friend would always shout this when he saw a girl with an ass. At first he found it odd, but eventually he was doing it too!"Please join me." Modus was standing right next to Will. He pointed to

Chapter 7 – Sword Totem...Will was in the zone! He finally felt like he somewhat understood the essence of those words! It was only when he was about to die, that the idea hit him. Death was the end of a life! A previously obvious assertion that now bore so much weight.Or one could say the absence of life. Just like how darkness is the absence of light, or cold is the absence of heat. To understand death, one needs to start by understanding life.In everyday life, the cycle is constantly around us. When we accidentally kill an insect, or when we pluck a flower or even killing rodents in your own homes. Every human usually ignores such acts, yet they are in fact killing.Every human is a killer. When you engage in any one of these things you feel no revulsion, nor do you feel any guilt. In fact, it even feels natural.So why is killing other humans is treated differently? Because we make it relevant, we say we are justified in killing other creatures, because they are not sentient,
