Awakening of the Ancient: Rise of the Fallen 157 Chapter 154: Offer

"Sword Art of Destruction!" Xu Ming muttered as he swung his sword.

It seemed as if his sword was burning in dark flames because of his origin energy.

A bright and powerful arc of light left his sword and advanced towards the Earth Trampling Mammoth.

Xu Ming was shocked to see that his Gold Realm Sword was turned to dust right after this attack.

He couldn't understand why it was. He had used the Sword Art of Destruction from this sword before, but the sword wasn't destroyed. Why was it that it was destroyed this time? His attack also felt more powerful than it had been when he used it in the Training Room.

He couldn't understand. Was there something in the Training Room that decreased the power of his attack, or was it something else? He couldn't help but wonder.

The bright arc of light was moving towards the Earth Trampling Mammoth, like lightning.

The Earth Trampling Mammoth opened its mouth and shot out an orb of fire. It kept shooting out the attacks, but Xu Ming's sword attack wasn't affected.

Xu Ming's attack kept cutting the attacks of the Earth Trampling Mammoth, as it kept advancing ahead.

The Earth Trampling Mammoth was somewhat scared. It didn't have time to dodge.

It covered its body with a special barrier, which increased its defense even more.

It thought that it was safe, but it turned out to be a wrong assumption.

Xu Ming's attack cut through the barrier like butter before it cut the Earth Trampling Mammoth's neck, killing it instantly.

Xu Ming's Origin Energy was almost depleted, but this time he was still able to walk.

Xu Ming walked to the Earth Trampling Mammoth, and put its body in the storage ring, but this time, instead of putting it in the Storage Ring given to him by the sect master, he kept it in his father's storage ring.

He didn't want others to find out that he killed an Earth Realm Beast.

"You were right. Facing Earth Realm Beasts is unnecessary effort with no rewards," Valeria said.

"Yeah, I even lost my sword. Now I only have a mortal grade sword. I don't think I can use that for long either. And we still have more beasts to hunt," Xu Ming muttered as he picked up the Mortal Grade Sword that he had thrown towards the Earth Trampling Mammoth to divert its attention.

He only has two swords, and one of them was broken already. Now he only had the sword that was used to train new disciples of the outer sect. A mortal grade sword that was considered a useless weapon.

Xu Ming put the sword in his storage ring before he walked to a tree and sat down around it as he began to rest.

After resting for a few hours, he again began his search for Peak Gold Realm beasts. This time, he was especially careful not to come across Earth Realm beasts as he didn't want to lose his only Weapon as well.

The hunt continued throughout the day, and Xu Ming kept killing beasts one after another.

Everything was going great with him. He was having no difficulty in finding Peak Gold Realm beasts, and hunting was even easier with the help of Valeria. He also didn't need to use his God Grade Skills.

It was evening, and Xu Ming was fighting his 50th Peak Gold Realm Beast.

The beast was defeated in no time. Xu Ming kept the last body in the storage ring given to him by the sect master.

"Finally, we did it! That makes it 50! Let's leave this place," Valeria said excitedly.

"Yeah, We can leave. It would take us a long time just to get back to the portal. We should get there by tomorrow afternoon if we start walking now," Xu Ming said as he started waiting back.

He walked throughout the night without sleeping. He had already decided that now he would only sleep after he got out of this place.

As he went back, he ignored every beast. He was already done with the hunting, and he didn't care if he saw a Peak Gold Realm beast.

The cold night passed away, and the morning arrived, but Xu Ming didn't stop.

He continued walking non-stop even though he was somewhat sleepy.

After some more time, he reached the portal.

"Sigh, I can finally leave this place," Xu Ming said as he walked into the portal and disappeared.

Xu Ming came out of the portal on the other side.

He saw that three people were still there. Elder Mu, who escorted him here, the blind Elder Wu and the Sect Master.

Only Elder Mu was keeping an eye on the portal while the other two seemed like they were cultivating under the tree.

"You are out so soon? Did you give up already? You don't look harmed. What happened inside?" Elder Mu asked. She thought that Xu Ming had failed.

Her voice attracted the attention of the Sect Master and Elder Wu, who stopped their cultivation and looked towards Xu Ming.

"You're out. How many bodies did you collect?"  the Sect Master asked Xu Ming.

"I collected 50," Xu Ming replied.

"Oh, nice. How many of them are the bodies of Peak Gold Realm beasts?" the Sect Master asked with a slight smile on his face.

"All 50 of them," Xu Ming let out softly as he brought all the bodies out of the storage ring.

The bodies of 50 Peak Gold Realm beasts were lying before the Sect Master.

Elder Mu was shocked, "You collected 50 already? Y-you succeeded?"

The Sect Master, on the other hand, started laughing.

"Good. Very Good," He said.

"Good work," Elder Wu said to Xu Ming with a gentle smile on his face.

"Well done, Xu Ming. You have broken three records already.  You have not only become the youngest person to finish the Core Sect Trial, but also the person who became a Core Sect disciple from the Outer Sect disciple in the least time. You also became the person that finished a core trial the fastest. My sect is really lucky to have someone like you," the Sect Master said.

"I would like to reward you something on this great day, but the thing that I reward you depends on your answer. Answer me, Xu Ming, would you like to become my personal disciple?" The Sect Master asked with a slight smile on his face.

Even though Elder Mu had already expected that she was still surprised when it actually happened, the Sect Master looked even happier than he looked when he took Battle Fairy Mia as his disciple.
