My SSS-Rank Skill and System is too OP in Modern Cultivation world Chapter 74 74: A Perfectly "Accidental" Sabotage

—

"Looks like we've got company," Kent said, drawing his dagger.

Ding!

System notifications: enemy incoming

Na: A skeleton dragon of ancient tis.

Cultivation: in between Level-C and Level-B

A massive skeleton dragon erged from the shadows, its bony wings spreading wide as it roared again.

The Dark Alliance mbers imdiately went on the defensive, charging at the dragon with their weapons.

Kent hung back, watching them struggle. "This should be good."

One of the mbers turned to him. "What are you waiting for?! Join the fight!"

"Alright, alright," Kent said, rolling his eyes. You want to help you.

He activated Flashing Step, instantly appearing on the dragon's back.

WHOOSH!

"Surprise, big guy!" Kent said, stabbing his hellfire-coated dagger into the dragon's spine.

BOOOOM!

The dragon roared in pain, thrashing wildly as it tried to shake him off.

anwhile, the Dark Alliance mbers were too busy fighting to notice Kent's antics.

Ding!

1,500 SP Copied from Dragon (Anger).

"Man, I love this kind of job," Kent said, laughing.

The skeleton dragon roared, its bony wings beating against the air as it struggled against Kent's hellfire-coated dagger. The Dark Alliance Level-C mbers were shouting and swinging their weapons, but none of their attacks seed to work.

anwhile, Kent?

Oh, he was having the ti of his life.

Ding!

1,200 SP Copied from Dark Alliance mbers xxx, xxx, xxx, xxx (Frustration).

Ding!

1,000 SP Copied from Skeleton Dragon (Pain).

"Hah! This thing gives SP, too?! I should ride more skeleton dragons!" Kent cackled, holding onto the dragon's bony spine like it was a rodeo show. The Ember ling sparrow was sleeping inside his jacket. Kent was very careful not to harm the little bird. His movents were restricted for that reason.

The leader of the Dark Alliance, still unaware of Kent's true identity, gritted his teeth.

"Enough of this! We need to bring it down before it wipes out my team!"

"Good plan, boss!" Kent shouted from the dragon's back. "I'll help!" Then…He let go.

Whoosh!

Kent let himself fall off the dragon's back, twisting mid-air as he descended. He made sure to position himself right behind a few Dark Alliance mbers.

"INCOMING!" Kent yelled, flailing his arms.

CRASH!

He landed directly on two Dark Alliance mbers, flattening them into the dirt.

Ding!

1,000 SP Copied from Dark Alliance (Pain & anger).

1,000 SP Copied from Dark Alliance (Pain & anger).

"Ow! You idiot!" one of them groaned.

Kent stood up and dusted himself off. "Oops. My bad, guys. That landing could have been better."

The leader glared at him. "You're making things worse!"

"Oh? I thought I was helping!" Kent grinned.

Ding!

800 SP Copied from Dark Alliance Leader (Suspicion).

The dragon swung its tail, sending another group of Dark Alliance mbers flying like bowling pins.

THWACK!

Ding!

1,500 SP Copied from Dark Alliance (Fear).

1,500 SP Copied from Dark Alliance (Fear).

The remaining Dark Alliance fighters stumbled back, fear now creeping into their eyes. The leader clenched his fists. "This thing is too strong! We need to retreat and regroup!"

Kent's eyes widened.

Oh, hell no.

He didn't sabotage these idiots so that they could escape.

"Oh no, boss," Kent said dramatically, stepping in front of the retreating Dark Alliance mbers. "You said we needed to fight, so we should fight!"

The leader scowled. "What are you doing, 888?! Move!"

"Move?" Kent gasped, placing a fake offended hand on his chest. "After everything we've been through? I can't let you leave! Here, let help!"

And then—!! Kent grabbed one of their own weapons (a massive great sword) and swung it wildly—accidentally knocking three of them back toward the dragon.

BOOM!

"NOOO!"

The dragon stomped on them instantly.

Ding!

2,000 SP Copied from Dark Alliance (Death).

2,000 SP Copied from Dark Alliance (Death).

2,000 SP Copied from Dark Alliance (Death).

Kent winced. "Damn. That looked like it hurt."

The leader's face turned red with fury. "YOU'RE SABOTAGING US, AREN'T YOU?!"

Kent grinned. "Oh, you finally figured it out?"

FWOOSH!

🔥

Kent activated Hellfire, his flas bursting to life around him. His casual smirk turned into sothing much more sinister.

"You guys were fun to ss with," he admitted, "but playti's over."

The remaining Dark Alliance mbers suddenly realized they were in serious trouble.

"You… you're not one of us?" one of them stamred.

Ding!

1,500 SP Copied from Dark Alliance (Fear).

1,500 SP Copied from Dark Alliance (Fear).

Kent cracked his knuckles. "Nope. But thanks for the SP donations."

The Dark Alliance Leader growled, spiritual energy flaring around him. His aura turned jet black, an oppressive force filling the air.

"You've ruined my mission, brat."

"Hey, in my defense, it was ruined from the start," Kent said.

The leader lunged forward, his fists covered in shadow energy.

Kent activated the Flashing Step—

WHOOSH!

💨

The leader swung—but Kent was already gone.

Kent appeared behind him, dagger in hand. "Surprise."

SLASH!

The Soul Slasher dagger, coated in Hellfire, cut through the leader's spiritual defenses like butter. The dark alliance leader froze.

Ding!

Frozen skill is active. The effect lasts for 1.5 seconds.

The leader stumbled, clutching his side, eyes wide.

"W-What… kind of fire is that?" he gasped.

Kent spun his dagger, the flas flickering nacingly. "The kind that sends you straight to the afterlife."

The leader roared in fury, frozen effects disappeared, charging forward again—but he was too slow.

Kent sidestepped, then delivered one final flaming stab—!

BOOM!

The leader was thrown back near the Skeleton dragon. Skeleton dragon attacks the dark alliance leader. Kent says have fun. I have to go. My treasures are waiting for .

Ding!

2,000 SP Copied from Dark Alliance Leader (anger).

The skeleton dragon and Dark Alliance leader start to fight each other, the dark alliance leader commands the rest of his team mbers to fight with him they need to defeat the skeleton dragon first. After that, they will deal with Kent.

Kent got out of the chamber and searched the area, looking for anything valuable.

His eyes landed on sothing shimring in the dim ruins light.

"Wait a second…" Kent approached a small crack in the wall. He bent down, running his fingers across the glowing blue stones embedded inside.

Ding!

System Notification:

Spiritual Ore Mine Discovered!

Kent grinned. "Now this… this is good loot."

He quickly activated Appraisal on the broken tools scattered nearby.

Ding!

Many Broken Spiritual Tools Detected.

The host can use Architect Skill Hellfire to Repair Them.

Kent grinned even wider. "Jackpot."

With his newfound Ore mine and the ability to repair weapons, Kent's next plan was clear.

Step 1: Collect as many broken weapons and tools as possible.

Step 2: Use his SSS-Rank Architect of creation Skill to fix them.

Step 3: Sell them when he goes outside the ruin.

"This is better than robbing rich cultivators!" Kent laughed. I am also getting SP from Dark Alliance mbers, they are fighting the skeleton dragon. Ha Ha Ha!!!

He stuffed his bag with as many broken weapons as he could carry, then made a ntal note to return for the ore later.

"Once I sell these," he murmured, rubbing his hands together, "I'll be the richest student in this whole damn ruin."

As he walked away, a bag full of broken tools and mind full of business ideas, he had no idea that things were about to get way more chaotic on the other side.

anwhile, The Dark Alliance mbers stood in a tight formation, their bloodied weapons clutched tightly as they watched the massive Skeleton Dragon before them.

The rage undead beast was at least twenty ters long, its hollow eye sockets burning with eerie blue flas. Its bony wings spread wide, and its jaw unhinged, letting out a deep, echoing roar that made the air itself tremble.

ROOOOOAAAARRRR!

The Dark Alliance Leader narrowed his eyes. "Prepare for battle."

The remaining seven Level-C mbers instantly surrounded the dragon, their spiritual energy flaring as they prepared to engage.

The dragon, seeing them as intruders, didn't hesitate. It swung its tail like a wrecking ball, aiming to crush it in one move.

WHOOSH!

"DODGE!" the leader bellowed.

The fighters scattered, just in ti to avoid the massive tail that slamd into the ground. The shockwave sent rocks and debris flying, causing the weaker mbers to stumble.

But one wasn't fast enough.

A Level-C fighter was too slow—the dragon's tail clipped him before he could escape.

CRACK!

The unfortunate cultivator's ribs shattered, and he was sent flying across the battlefield before slamming into a boulder.

BOOM!

"ARGH!!" He scread in pain. Blood dripped from his mouth as he clutched his chest.

Ding!

2,000 SP Copied from Dark Alliance (Pain).

The leader didn't even look at him. Forget him, he barked. "The weak are just stepping stones for the strong."

Knowing the Dark Alliance's brutal philosophy, the others didn't protest. They tightened their grips on their weapons, steeling themselves for what ca next.
