Right now Hou Yan felt invincible so he didn't feel scared against these monster. With just his aura, they were backing off like cowards.
All of a sudden, from behind, a spear could be seen traveling towards his back and was getting closer to him every second.
After 2 seconds, the spear was only 2 feet away from Hou Yan's back.
*BOOM*
The spear that was created from Qi slammed into Hou Yan and launched him kilometers away from where he was previously. It was truly a cowardly but deadly attack.
The place where Hou Yan landed was on the side of a mountain. Because of the attack and Hou Yan himself, the mountain crumbled into pieces. Those pieces of rocks fell on Hou Yan and buried him.
Underneath the rocks, Hou Yan flew out of there. He looked as if he wasn't even hurt.
"Yikes, that was a close one."
"H-h-h-how are you still alive?!!?"
"Hm? Oh, you must be the one who attacked me. Well, the reason I am still alive is that... I don't know. Maybe I have a body of steel. Maybe I can become Man of Steel..."
"Stop joking with me you m-m-monster!"
"Eh? Last time I checked, I was a human. And who are you calling a monster, you m-m-monster!"
"You!"
Hou Yan had a big smug on his face for being able to bully this dumb monster. Enough with fun, it was time to punish such a naughty monster~.
Now, instead of a smug on his face, he had a sadistic smile. One that creeped out even a monster.
"W-why are you smiling?"
"Hm? Can't I smile?"
Fear crept on the monster's heart. His back was drenched with cold sweat. How could it be so stupid and try to kill a super duper monster like him!
Every second that passed, Hou Yan was getting closer and closer to the monster. The monster felt as if every footstep that Hou Yan took brought it closer to death. It didn't know why but it felt weak against Hou Yan's immeasurable power.
"Oh supreme being, forgive this imbecile monster and let me go. I won't disturb you ever again."
"Eh~~? You want to leave so early? Don't leave, let me at least 'entertain'
you a little."
With a single leap, Hou Yan appeared in front of the monster. The monster didn't have enough time to react and its neck was grasped by Hou Yan's hand. It was then thrown into the grown faceward. Hou Yan stepped on the monster and took out a rope he kept in his storage ring.
"It's time for punishment little monster~."
When it heard what Hou Yan said, the monster felt as if its heart sank like the Titanic. This must be how the ship felt, huh?
*Slash*
*Slash*
*Slash*...
After hours and hours of whipping, Hou Yan felt like he needed to stop. The monster became disfigured from the number of whips he received. He truly wanted to kill himself but how could Hou Yan allow it to? Hou Yan demobilized the monster and kept on whipping him. It even put spice on the whip to make it 'spicy'.
All this time, the system stayed quiet.
'Yikes... Looks like his other personality awakened from that attack. I need to seal it before it gets out of hand.'
Then light covered Hou Yan as he was about to make his last whip.
"THOUSAND SEALING PERSONALITY KILLING SEAL!" {Natural seal name right?? hehe}
It felt as if time froze around Hou Yan. After a while, time resumed again and the light that covered Hou Yan dissipated. Then Hou Yan awakened from the eternal nap he had been.
*Slash*
The whip landed on the monster and Hou Yan was startled. When did he start whipping a monster? All he remembered was coming out of that cave and getting sneak attacked.
Wait, why was the monster disfigured?
"System, why am I whipping a monster?"
'Sigh, long story to explain, here is what happened.'
Then the system began to recall everything that happened when Hou Yan was attacked.
After the system finished recalling the events that happened, Hou Yan's body shivered. Not because of 'almost' dying but because of him awakening his sadistic personality and how it enjoyed disfiguring the monster.
"Yikes! Thanks, system. You truly saved me by sealing my sadistic personality."
'No need to mention. It brought discomfort to me too when I saw how sadistic you looked. Sheesh, even S&M experts aren't as sadistic as you.'
Hou Yan didn't know what to say. This was truly big news.
"Will other personalities also awaken if events like that occur."
'Probably.'
"I hope System will be able to take care of it before my personalities go out of crazy when they awaken..."
'Sure.'
With a little jab, Hou Yan finished off the monster.
'Yeet... You have slaughtered a poor monster you disfigured... Experience +...'
Sigh, System is truly trying to make me feel pity for it.
Afterward, Hou Yan proceeded to ascend(if you ascend the dungeon, it means you are heading for the exit and going up to the 1st floor but if you descend, then it means you are going towards the bottom floor.) the dungeon. He passed through all the lower floors and because he remembered the passage, it was a child's play on reaching the top floor.
The downside is that it took him well over two days to reach the first floor and exit out of the dungeon.
When the receptionist saw Hou Yan, he had a smile on his face. He thought that Hou Yan died in the dungeon but to only come back alive and stronger than before.
"Hoho looks like your time is not up yet."
"Nope, it isn't. How could my time be up when you are still alive."
"Hahaha, funny joke."
Although the old man was laughing, if one paid close attention to his aura, you would notice the small killing intent being released.
"You can't scare me with such measly killing intent."
Hou Yan snorted when he saw the old man's killing intent.
The old man said nothing but kept on smiling, which in turn crept Hou Yan the fuck out.
Yikes...
Outside the dungeon, Hou Yan went back to the inn he stayed before. Once inside the inn, he met the same innkeeper again.
"Oh if it isn't you."
"Oh, you still remember me?"
"Yup. I make sure to remember all those that rent out our third-floor rooms."
"Such a businessman aren't we? Haha."
"Haha, well what brings you back?"
"To rent a room again."
"Oh, good. Your room from before is still vacant, do you want it?"
"Oh, that's good. I'll take it."
"That'll be..."
After paying the innkeeper, Hou Yan headed towards his room. He went inside the bathroom and took a shower. While taking a shower, Hou Yan was humming to his favorite song, 'Spank Me, Daddy'.
'What the hell is wrong with my host?...'
"Hm? Did you say something System?"
'No.'
"Alright."
Afterwhile, Hou Yan headed towards the city. While taking a walk. he remembered something important.
"System, shouldn't I be receiving a gift for reaching Core Formation?"
'You finally remembered?'
"No wonder I was forgetting something, hahaha."
'Well, here it is.'
'Yeet... Host has received a gift for reaching Core Formation.'
'1. 10,000 points.'
'2. Chaos Void Bloodline.'
'3. Analytical Eyes.'
"Woah!! System what are all those cool sounding gifts, except the first one."
'I felt like I wasn't giving you overpowered stuff even though I am the All-Pow... even though I am your system.'
"What were you trying to say?"
'The second gift is Chaos Void bloodline. With this bloodline, you will have a better grasp of chaos and void laws and you will also be able to control them. For further information, find it out on your own. Also, this bloodline is a bloodline that no one has except you. You don't have to be afraid of being hunted down. Even using chaos, no one will know what it is as no one in this universe has any affinity with chaos.'
"Don't ignore me!"
'The third gift, Analytical eyes, grant you eyes that will help you analysis anything, but that only depends on your strength. For further information, find it out on your own.'
"Sheesh, thanks for the shitty explanation."
'I always make sure my host is satisfied, so thank you.'
"You!"
Hou Yan was standing in the middle of the street and people were looking at him as if he was a maniac due to all the expressions he was making.
All of a sudden, a loud sound came from behind Hou Yan.
"MOVE OUT OF THE WAY PEASANT!"
A horse was galloping his way with a carriage behind it.
Hou Yan wasn't responding as he was too busy communicating with the system.
The Coachman looked at Hou Yan wearily and tried to stop the horse, but then the voice of a man came from the carriage.
"Don't stop the horse. Run that peasant over."
Sighing, the Coachman didn't stop the horse and let it gallop towards Hou Yan.
Inside the carriage, the man who spoke was looking at Hou Yan with hateful eyes. How could a peasant dare to block his way when the woman he was trying to court was in here with him. Was that peasant trying to embarrass him?
"I'm sorry Miss Yunyun. Looks like I've been slacking on training these peasants not to block the road."
The woman looked at the man with disgust and contempt. The man ignored it and continued smiling towards the woman.
Outside, the commoners looked at Hou Yan with pity. He was truly going to get killed today. Sigh, another one bites the dust.
Then, all of a sudden...
