A grain of rice can tip the scales...
Such was the perfect way to describe how delicate the struggle between
Will and the king was.
The king was all-powerful and dominant, baptized by constant battle and even Mother Nature herself.
Will was a human who had a sharp mind and a plethora of skills that were extremely dangerous given that they were used in the right situation.
The question in this situation was who would win? On which scale would the grain fall? Will did not want the answer to be within doubt. After gritting his teeth, he hurriedly mobilized all available parts in his brain in an attempt to come up with a solution. He was literally inside the jaws of death, and only a little bit of water was keeping him alive.What can I do? How do I get out of this?
Will spread his awareness outside, in an attempt to understand his surroundings. The king had bitten onto the ball of water surrounding Will, and he was so desperate that

GulpWill couldn't help but swallow some saliva when he saw what the quest was. He had long been aware that the system would give out 'Quests' on special occasions from time to time, but he would never have thought that the first quest he got would be so difficult.True Strike!Boom!That phrase was deeply embedded in Will's mind, for it was a technique from the Solitary Sword Sovereign cultivation manual. However, it was at a stage that was so profound Will could only understand the technique's name. He barely understood anything else.The manual had given Will a plethora of information, and Will could barely make sense of it. It wasn't just difficult to understand, it also felt as if it wasn't in order. Techniques that were more powerful than the true strike itself were much easier to understand, yet simpler techniques like the true strike were sometimes more difficult to understand.This information was given to Will in the form of

Will could sense it, but he also could not touch it. He could feel it but he also felt as if it wasn't there. It was both tangible and intangible at the same time.

The originally boring and mundane activity had turned into a realm of new discoveries for Will.Nearly every day he was discovering something new about his body. Something he didn't know about or didn't think was possible. It took time, but eventually, Will was finally able to accomplish one of his objectives.

Sword Intent. Will wasn't quite sure what this was, or what it could do. All he knew was that this was necessary for a true strike to occur. According to the SSS manual, a true strike needed three things; technique, intent, and qi. Will was first polishing his technique because as far as he was concerned that was the easiest to do. However, it was also the most time-consuming.The only way to improve one's technique in Will's situation was to practice. So for who knows how long, Will had been doing ten thousand repetitions of the same sword strokes over and over again. Seasons came and went. As far as he could tell this was the third time it was snowing, so Will was guessing that he had spent three years practicing.It wasn't all boring. As soon as Will started to practice, Modus started sending Will some 'guests'."Roar!"A deafening roar echoed out across the snowy flatlands. It was so violent that the trees nearby Shook's and the snow that had collecte
Solitary Sword Sovereign A New Challenger Arrives!
For the past few years, Modus had been sending Will opponents in the form of beasts almost every day. Modus had not revealed himself to Will, and no matter how much Will asked he never got a response. They were all E+ and all quite powerful. Will had nearly been caught by the jaws of death quite a few times already.At first, he had been quite reliant on bloodlust and radiant energy. Healing himself from life-threatening wounds every day. However, as his experience and yuan increased in quality so did his ability. Assuming a year has four seasons; Will estimated that it had been at least six seasons since he had last used bloodlust and three seasons since he had last used radiant energy.Although he didn't need bloodlust Will still got injured, even till today, however, he wanted to avoid relying on the crutch that was radiant energy knowing he could heal himself from nearly any injury made Will careless in battle. Will did not want himself to get used to such a style

Is one of the rulers of the E rating and is the strongest E+ creature within the skies.Rating: E+Class: Sector Boss (Multiple)]"Oh fuck me." Will could not help but sigh in resignation."High defense, high speed, virtually immune to water type attacks, is a long-range creature. It's like it was designed to fight me! Fuck you Modus!"The bird was not that large. Normally that would be a good thing but in this situation, it was a problem because it made for a much more difficult target to hit. For flying creatures, the smaller it is the more mobile it becomes.As Will was busy cursing, the Warhawk stopped its flight and calmly positioned itself right above Will. Due to the fact that it was an intelligent creature, it was possible to show expressions just
Solitary Sword Sovereign Intent
Once the remnant flakes of snow had settled, Will stood up and a lot of damage was visible on his body. Blood was dripping from the corners of his mouth and his chest showed three massive diagonal gashes that were revealing bloody flesh underneath.If I had not put up the water wall up in time that would have been the end of me.It wasn't as if Will did not see signs of the bird moving. Due to his dual mind ability, Will had no blind spots in his vision. Every single minute movement the bird made from a little ruffle on its stony skin to a flicker of its fire mane was clearly visible to Will and was being processed. Unfortunately, even if he could see the attack coming, his body could not react in time.Luckily I can move water faster than I can move my body.Will quickly covered his frontal wounds with ice to stop the bleeding and looked at his opponent. It was not polite enough to wait for Will to attack. Will could tell with one look that it was getting
Solitary Sword Sovereign Truly Sharp!
As he stood there on a ground blanketed in snow Will had a sudden thought, an epiphany if you will. Killing intent was the aura his body released when he intended to kill a bit. The more he intends to do so, the more killing intent his body would release. It was because of this that Will came upon an idea.Killing intent is for when you want to kill something. Swords were made to kill. In other words, sword intent should not be much different from killing intent, right? Ah...wait...no it can't be that simple. Killing is the connection, but sword intent itself has to be unique.As Will's mind kept going through a multitude of thoughts, he released the restraint he had placed upon his killing intent. Due to the fact that he was still unfamiliar with such actions, Will couldn't control how much killing intent leaked out, but this was merely for a fraction of a second. This was not his intention, but it was very beneficial for him because it stopped the movements of the He
