I arrived at an empty house and walked inside it, then removed my Traceless Steps.
Just as I removed them, I sighed, "How did you find ?" I asked.
"I didn't," he said.
It was Dao Shen again, "You being here ans that you did find ," he said.
"No, I was unable to find you for a few seconds, it was as if your existence was removed from the world.
"How did you locate still?" I asked.
"Your Soul, I have a thing for souls, rember, I'm an owner of multiple Poison God books, and one of them is the Soul book. Your soul is black as the night, it disappeared for a second, but once it was apparent I was able to see it again and ca to you," he said.
"I don't suppose you're here to show my second target?" I asked.
"No, I want to see how you'll find your second target, you don't mind tagging along?" he asked.
"Do as you like, just don't stab in the back," I said.
"When did a cultivator ever respect a promise?" he asked smiling.
"That's the reason I didn't ask you to promise that, after all, if you were to kill , you'll only kill this spare body," he said.
"True, I'm still unable to locate your main body, it's as if it had disappeared from the world, funny tricks you have Shen Bao," he said.
"Thanks, I said and sat down and began dismantling the rifle.
Dao Shen sat right next to , and tilted his head, "What are you doing?" he asked.
Man, this guy acts like a teenager asking all random things.
"I'm doing maintenance, a single shot of this weapon is enough to cause it heavy damage, I need to keep maintaining it, otherwise it might blow up in my face one day," I explained.
"Dedicated, I admire that," he said.
"Thanks," I said as I pulled apart the barrel and began inspecting it, it didn't look like it was damaged, I then checked the Qi chamber and thankfully the first blow didn't damage it either.
The reactor at the stock was cooling down, it was also in mint condition. After wiping so of the dirt off I assembled the rifle back and placed it in my inventory. I then began inspecting the rest of my weapons. Which further caught the interest of Dao Shen.
"You seem like a person who is made for assassination," he said.
"Not really, I'm just doing the minimum. As for you, I'm still surprised how you managed to locate all of your targets in the first place. You're the real monster," I said.
"Its not really that hard, it's all related to their Souls, I'm able to constantly locate and find anyone here, I can see their souls and if I see their souls I can see their number, I just needed to approach and take them out before they notice .
I frowned, I didn't understand how seeing the soul of a person allowed him to see their tag.
"I know what you're thinking," he said. "A soul is a reflection of a person, the mont they wore the robes and the tag, they subconsciously gear their souls with the sa thing, one look at their souls from far away enables to know what tag they're wearing." He said.
"That's pretty handy, especially here," I said.
"Of course, it's convenient, and that is the purpose of this trial, the Poison God is a selfish person, he's not the kind who'll allow others to take his heritage, his heritage is only for his truest disciples. That's why this whole trial is unfair for everyone but us. So, find your fort, and use it. I'll be leaving, sothing is interesting happening nearby," he said.
"Let guess," I said as I looked at the man.
"Be my guest, and if you guess what's happening I might give you a hint on your next target. Trust , you'll need it." he said.
"You're seeing a Fiery Soul, and it's about to fight soone far stronger than himself," I said.
The man in front of , without even needing to look at his expression was surprised.
"How did you know?" he asked.
"Tricks of the trade, you're not the only one with a few tricks up their sleeves, right?" I said.
"That is damn surprising, You're right, there is a person who I kept my eyes on since the mont I stepped into this trial. He is strong, and seems like the world's fate is helping him. I don't know why. This fight should be interesting, I suppose you'd also want to watch," he said.
"No, I already know how the fight will end," I sighed.
"Would you mind telling ? Because the person with the fiery soul is already at the receiving end."
"What will happen will go like this, the person with the fiery soul will get the every living shit beat out of him, and on the brink of death he'll either escape or reveal a trumpcard. No strike that, he'll definitely escape to fight another day. And the second ti this person finds his opponent, the Fiery Soul man will beat him black and blue revealing newfound powers. And this should all happen in the span of three days." I said.
"That is a very farfetched scenario, I don't think things will happen as you say, but I'll take it with a pinch of salt. As for my part of the deal, your target is soone who'll not die with that weapon. And you already fought him once, good luck. And make sure to not aim for the head." He said smiling
I frowned for a second but realized instantly what he ant. It was a Poison God cultivator, an definitely the man with the Body Cultivation Heritage. This is going to be a hassle.
"I hope you can win, I'll see you in the next round," he said.
"See you soon," I said nodding and soon, Dao Shen walked out of the hose and disappeared in the darkness.
As for the person with the Fiery Soul, I don't even need to worry. That man, is blessed, and losing is not an option, even I would never want to have him as an enemy. A person with that much Main Character aura, fighting him is basically asking to get killed or used as a stepping stone.
Good luck ng Hao, even if you don't need it, you damn Plot Armored bastard.
