"Yes!! I have succeeded now I will have to get to safety"Henry shouted.
However, Henry had spoken too soon, he chains charging towards him at an incredible speed.
"That spirit again but I think I can dodge it"Henry muttered.
Henry dodged to the left, then he attacked the chains with his sword. However, the sword didn't even leave a scratch on the blade.
Let alone destroying the chains.
Another chain was charging towards Henry, he blocked it with the ripping sword, and a dent was left in the ripping so.
The pained voice of the ripping sword resounded through his ears.
"Master I am too weak currently, if I am not at my peak then I won't be able to scratch them let alone defeat them."The ripping sword voice resounded in his ears.
Henry just nodded his head slightly and said.
"Absorb all the sword intents infused with the gales of wind to regain your full strength quickly until then I won't use you"Henry announced to the ripping sword.
As he kept the sword at his waist. The ripping sword didn't say anything, instead gales of wind started to rush towards the ripping sword.
Henry focused his eyes on the chains to find any flaws or anything useful but he didn't.
At the current moment, he isn't in the deep ocean.
"I think I have lost all the powers of the ocean of death by now. Ripping sword dud said it is temporary if I didn't understand all the essence of the Ocean of death itself.
I need to look for another way to stall for time until the ripping sword is back at its peak again."Henry muttered under his breath.
All of a sudden, Henry saw chains approaching him. It will be moving so fast that even before Henry has the time to react, it will hit Henry in the face.
Henry was sent flying backwards and he coughed up a mouthful of blood from his mouth. A tooth broke due to the attack.
Seeing this the ripping sword exclaimed.
"Master, are you alright!!"The ripping sword asked anxiously.
"Focus on getting back to your peak. Don't focus on me"Henry ordered with a serious expression on his face.
The rate of the sword's intent to charge toward the ripping sword increased by an incredible speed. The aura of the ripping sword increased with each passing second.
Henry nodded his head in satisfaction after he saw the growth of the ripping sword's aura.
"The ripping sword will take a few more minutes to return to its peak by then I will have to survive,'' Henry muttered.
Henry heard the sound of water chains colliding with one another from not too far away.
This caused cold sweat to drip down from his forehead.
"I heard the sound of so many chains that I am going to be attacked by them.
If so, how am I supposed to dodge so many attacks at once?"Henry mumbled.
Henry all of a sudden noticed something weird.
"But where is the spirit himself, I need his location to take him down later," Henry said with a frown on his face.
The sound of chains clashing with one another grew louder with each passing second, and so did Henry's nervousness.
"I should be ready to move any time now"Henry mumbled.
Suddenly a chain charged toward him at an incredible speed. He turned his head towards the chain.
"This one is moving slower than the other chains, I think I will be able to dodge it," Henry added.
He quickly jumped to the right and successfully dodged the attack.
All of a sudden, he heard the sound of metal clashing above him. Henry looked above him.
He saw 5 chains charging toward him.
"Oh shit"Henry let out a curse as he saw five chains heading toward him.
Henry is in the air so his movements are quite restricted. Henry looked at the ground, his face immediately turned pale after seeing the scene in front of him.
The chains he dodged earlier changed trajectory and are heading toward his heart currently.
"There is a way to survive these attacks"Henry muttered under his breath
He turned his head to the ripping sword and said.
"Hey, ripping a sword creates a barrier of sword intent around me to protect me from the incoming attacks," Henry muttered as his voice carried a sense of urgency.
Ripping sword didn't speak, instead, the sword intent which was being absorbed by it a second ago is currently covering Henry's body from head to toe slowly.
Within less than a second, Henry's body was covered in sword intent, and gales of wind also gathered around him.
The gales of wind, now infused with razor-sharp sword intent, resembled a hurricane, ready to slash anything that dared to come close to him. The force of this lethal storm made it clear that entering its vicinity would be nothing short of a perilous endeavor for anyone in its path.
However, the chains charged toward Henry regardless of what lies in front of it.
The gales of wind infused with sword intent started to slash the chains non-stop without stopping, however, no scratches appeared on them.
Almost like the chains are invincible. However, all of the chains slowly lose their speed with each passing second.
This caused Henry to smile slightly. The chains lost their speed within a few dozen seconds and fell to the ground.
"You can now start to absorb the sword intended to recover your strength"Henry ordered the ripping sword.
The ripping sword started to absorb the surrounding sword intent like a vicious beast. In less than a second, the sword intent surrounding Henry disappears without a trace.
It continued to absorb the sword intent in the realm of eternal slumber like a hungry beast.
Henry was still on his guard since he didn't know where the next attack would come from next time.
"I must be on my guard all the time," Henry muttered under his breath.
All of a sudden he heard the laughter of someone. He looked in the direction where the laughter was coming from.
He narrowed his eyes.
"Why is the King of Spirit laughing like this?"Henry muttered.
He then just decided to also be the king of spirits.
"Why are you laughing like this?"Henry questioned the king of spirits.
However he didn't get any answer, the king of spirits kept laughing loudly for the next few seconds.
Henry was getting annoyed by his behavior greatly just as he was about to ignore him.
The King of Spirit spoke.
"Do you think that you will be able to find the lord of chains and stop his assault? More importantly, do you think you will kill him after finding him?
Let's assume you do kill him by any means and will be able to kill billions of foot soldiers of the realm of eternal slumber"The king of the spirit questioned Henry while laughing out loudly.
Henry's face changed when he heard about billions of soldiers because he thought that there were few million.
"Have you mistaken millions by billions? "Henry asked while cold sweat dripped down from his forehead.
"Look around you boy. I have given your sight a temporary boost so you should be able to see everything"The king of spirits immediately replied while laughing like a lunatic.
Henry's eyes received a kind of boost temporally and then he looked at his surroundings.
He saw the never-ending numbers of foot soldiers surrounding him. They were standing orderly in the shape of a circle.
He fell to the ground after he lost all of his confidence after seeing the endless number of soldiers.
"You think you can defeat them?"The king of spirits asked with a sinister smile on his face.
Only silence remained in the dark realm as Henry lost all of his will to fight.
"It's impossible to win against billions of soldiers currently," Henry muttered to himself.
The ripping sword also remained silent since it was indeed impossible to win against such a force.
All of a sudden a voice echoed in his ears.
"I will give you another trial if you win then you may go to the Primordial beginning."The king of spirits said with a serious look on his face.
It got Henry's attention and asked.
"You can just easily kill me so why are you going through all this trouble?"Henry asked the spirit.
He got a reply that's a testimony that he is the strongest in this realm.
"I am bored from easily winning, "The king of spirits said with a long sigh.
