Origin Lust Sword System

The once lively District-A was filled with murky soul winds of the Underworld and blind blackness. The only source of light was still running electrically in this darkness.

The streets once filled with people were now enshrouded in eerily voices of bones rattling, and under the lights of those lamps, they looked like ghost streets.

"Boom…"

A resounding blast sounded within area-13, blasting away not only soul winds mixed with the debris of bones.

A 6'5, burly silhouette could be seen standing at the point of the blast, and three half-broken frames in front of this silhouette were just biting the dust.

At this moment, the burly silhouette hand moved, 2-meter-long blade shadow surface as it pointed it toward the dead skeleton.

The next moment thereafter, all the bones of dead skeletons made creaking sounds before they started to turn into fine dust and encased on the blade shadow!

It was truly a strange scene…

---

"I wonder how those undead could see in these murky winds with this strange darkness to boot."

Rita mumbled as she was having difficulty seeing past five feet ahead of her, and this was only because she was a cultivator and there were running electrically to illuminate some faint light.

Cyrus, who was completely relying on Eve's guidance for incoming danger, chuckled, "I don't know either, but I once heard that Undead Race could only see three colors of flames, and differences in these flames' brightness represent different meanings.

"The blue color flame for fellow undead, white color flame for living, and red color flame to discriminate between superior and inferior races. Besides these three flames, they see their surrounding completely pitch black. But no one knows if it was true or not."

Rita was quite astonished when she heard this strange yet fascinating information.

However, before she could comment, they heard footsteps closing in fast!

"I guess the flames thingy is true. Or how could they always manage to find us!" Rita cussed in vexation as she instantly took her fighting stance.

Cyrus smiled, not worried at all, "Well, you can rest. This is the fifth group since we started our journey, and it won't be the last. Don't worry about me."

"Easy for you to say when they always target me over you!" Rita's voice was filled with acrimony.

It had been two hours since they left the house and embarked on their journey toward area A-1.

At first, Rita never thought much about it, and she thought they could easily avoid these skeletons in this darkness. But soon, she realized just how naïve she had been.

Because these skeletons always find them no matter what route they take, and they're always coming in large numbers.

If not for Cyrus continuing to kill them and his stamina keeps on recovering, they both would've been spent and died under these continuous attacks.

However, Rita wasn't like Cyrus, and she needed rest and time to recover her exhausted Qi, so she was now feeling exhausted and vexed.

Lastly, those undead always end up targeting her as if they prefer her over Cyrus, and this gives her even less chance to rest.

Cyrus looked at Rita's somewhat exhausted face and said, "Alright, this time, no one will come closer to you. Just form Ice four ice shields around you and start recovering."

Rita was uncertain about this suggestion, but when she looked at Cyrus's meaningful smile, she suddenly guessed something and couldn't help but winded her eyes and blurted, "Don't tell me; you were deliberately letting them pass you so they can attack me?"

Cyrus didn't admit it, nor did he deny her. He only smiled mysteriously and left only one sentence before he charged toward those incoming skeletons.

"What do you think?"

Disbelief, Rita looked at Cyrus's figure vanishing into the murky winds, but when no skeleton approached her even after two minutes, and she could vaguely hear these familiar musical notes, she knew she was right.

Her lips curled resentfully as she muttered, "I'll take my revenge in bed!"

Rita's nether region instantly started to heat up just thinking about it before she quickly suppressed her lust, or she might've had a climax just thinking about it.

Her cultivation technique had become too effective after she lost her virginity and breakthrough, and now she was always horny. If the situation wasn't dire, she really wanted to enjoy getting ravished by Cyrus again.

After suppressing her dark desires, she made four ice walls around her and sat down cross-legged, and started to recover with this luscious smile. She no longer cared about any danger since Cyrus was handling it.

On the other hand, a couple of meters away from Rita, Cyrus was moving like an agile cat amidst over fifty skeletons. It was more like he was dancing to a mysterious melody played by the lust sword.

With each strike, a melodious sound rang, and when the sound faded, five or six skeletons faded with it like sacrifices to the Hymn. Furthermore, as he continues to perform each move of Hymn of Awakening, faster and faster, a strange tone was started to combine.

Lastly, the faster he performed the Hymn of Awakening, the faster his opponent turned into nothingness.

Furthermore, the moment he completes one cycle, he starts another without stopping and with the same level of strength.

"Wiss~~"

Cyrus completed the third cycle when he was stopped because there was no more opponent left at all.

"I just couldn't have enough of this sword technique. I'm feeling a strange mystery hidden within this sword technique." Cyrus mumbled as he felt strength coursing through his every cell.

"Hehe, that's mystery might be the Path of Lust Sword, if I'm not wrong." Eve giggled in relish.

Cyrus was suddenly enlightened and nodded solemnly, "Not, you're not wrong. I need to grasp this mystery if I want to embark on the path of Lust Sword. This technique might be a Path Technique, the rarest and most complex technique that ever exists, or even more than that. We can't underestimate the system anymore."

Cyrus sighed in frustration, "There's still no trace of any Tier-10 undead among this batch either. On the other hand, my SP is about to reach the limit."

"Don't worry. I'm sure there will be one sooner or later. This place is still in the process of strengthening, after all." Eve consoled gently.

"I know. Well, at least your rank is about to rise. This is the only good thing happening out of all this." Cyrus stated with anticipation.

It was the first time Eve would also experience an increase in her rank, and knowing the System, he knew there was bound to be a surprise.

Eve was also expectant and somewhat agitated, "I hope I'll be able to leave this place."

Cyrus didn't comment on this since he knew it was highly unlikely that she could leave her space just by rising her rank once. He didn't want to give her false hope, nor he wanted to burst her bubble to make her sad.

At least she knew this would happen eventually. Hope was far better than despair.

"Well, I guess I better start killing more of those guys then." Cyrus chuckled.

"Yes, please!" Eve instantly agreed in high spirits.

However, Cyrus didn't go out searching for them since Rita was still recovering, and he knew he didn't have to go looking for them at all. They will soon come charging toward them like before.

Just as he predicted, another large group came charging in their direction, and Cyrus got to work.

This time, he completed five cycles of Hymn of Awakening before killing the last one.

However, Cyrus was eagerly looking at the system's notification.

"I think I'm getting out yet, huh?" Eve's dejected voice rang before she suddenly exclaimed, "Oh, I'm feeling warm current suddenly!"

Cyrus was also startled when he felt Eve's hand tightly clinch his hand, but he didn't feel pain, instead warmth.

At this moment, the pitch-black double edge blade suddenly trembled before it started to increase in length and width. But the change wasn't massive, and it only took three seconds to complete.

When done, the black blade was now 4'5 feet in length and 2'5 inches in width. It perfectly matches Cyrus's current height.

Cyrus felt even more confident while holding this newly transformed sword in his hand. He wanted to check the status, but before he could, the ground suddenly trembled!
