Cultivation Through Artifacts

BOOM!

Khal kicked a huge hole into the Magma Golem's body, sending parts of its body flying into the air in the very next instant!

TREMBLE!!

The Magma Golem staggered a few steps behind by the impact, causing the ground below its humongous figure to shake like crazy as though the earth wanted to split apart!

'Just two out of the three?' Khal raised his brow the moment he noticed he was only able to destroy only two of its cores instead of all three.

Meanwhile, in the close distance, Liza stared at Khal with widened eyes, even letting out a startled gasp.

"H-He is strong! This is what means to become a True Cultivator?" Liza asked herself, wondering if all Sixth Stage Cultivators in the world were this strong as Khal.

Just a single kick alone from him created a huge hole in the middle of a giant creature, something she has never seen before!

Furthermore, the speed and momentum he attacked was so fast that she couldn't even take out his trajectory, which made her wonder if she was to fight with Khal once she reaches the Sixth Stage, would she be able to win?

However, deep inside her heart, for some strange reason she felt like if they were to fight seriously, she would stand no chance at all.

"Hm?"

While Liza stared at Khal with an intense gaze, suddenly around her feet blue Essence began to form akin to azure flames, indicating her Hidden Talent activated on its own once again.

"So that is how you did it, huh?" Liza mumbled in a low voice while moving her feet gently here and there, feeling a unique power she was somewhat familiar with.

TREMBLE!!

In the meantime, Khal watched as the Magma Golem's body began to regenerate and the huge gap in its abdomen got filled in once again.

'Its regeneration ability is rather slow, but it's not a huge surprise considering I just destroyed two of its core.' Khal quickly evaded another attack from the Magma Golem with ease before increasing his distance to see where the last core could be.

However, even after minutes of straight observation, he noticed no signs that could help him at all. The only thing he was able to do is to move continuously around the land while dodging the erupting lava from underground.

'Okay, then I guess I have no other choice, huh?' Khal quickly took a deep breath and waved his Devil Fang.

When Liza saw this she anticipated a powerful attack to manifest and end the Magma Golem, but even several seconds later, nothing happened which confused her deeply.

"What is happe-"

Swish!

BOOOM!

But even before she had the chance to finish her sentence, Khal quickly waved his weapon for a second time which was followed by an insanely huge explosion that turned the Magma Golem's right side turned into nothing more but debris and dust!

"W-What?! What happened just now? Why did the beast explode like that?" Liza exclaimed out with shock, her jaw dropped onto the ground from pure shock.

However, her awe didn't last long enough as suddenly its body began to regrow its lost body parts one again, indicating Khal still missed to destroy its third core.

'...'

Khal stared at this sight with a nonchalant look, showing no sign of panic, and instead waved his fan another two times.

Swish!

BOOOM!

And just like previously, after the second swing, the other half of the creature's body exploded into bits of rock, while a fist-sized orb, in hundreds of pieces, fell off from the air!

'A bit more than five thousand units of Body Essence to use twice the Ghost Slice against a Magma Golem, huh?' Khal thought with a slightly bitter expression as he had to use almost half of his current units of Body Essence just to kill a single creature which wasn't even that if a threat.

Khal quickly shook his head after thinking about this and proceeded on consuming the Magma Golem's Essence, gaining him a total of 39 units out of 50!

"Are you okay?" Liza appeared on his side once he finished consuming the Essence, which at Khal nodded and glanced at the Lava Fruit in the distance.

"Yeah, but more importantly, you should go and consume the Lava Fruit," Khal said to Liza and quickly explained her what she should do to consume the fruit without getting killed or injured.

"This will really work?" Liza asked once Khal finished talking, her delicate brows lowered into a frown.

"Yes, it will." nodded Khal firmly, showing just how confident he was.

"I see, then I will give it a try."

As she said that, Liza quickly turned around and walked toward the Lava Fruit that was still atop the solid lava pillar in the air.

Once she reached was about fifty meters away from it, she quickly waved her hand, forming a staircase from her Jade Ice into the air.

After taking a deep breath, she closed her eyes and began her ascend toward the Lava Fruit while suddenly her body was covered with crimson flames akin to a layer that protected her.

Khal told her if she wanted to consume it, she had to do three things.

First, she had to form a layer of flame around her body to protect herself from the Lava Fruit's heat.

Secondly, she had to approach the fruit with closed eyes, as if she tried to get close to it with her eyes opened, she would get so attracted that it would make her literally hypnotized, making her lower her guard and get injured thanks to the immense heat it radiated.

And lastly, once she reached the Lava Fruit, she must not touch it at all cost as it would turn chaotic and consume her body as a whole before changing her into nothing more but a pile of ash!

Khal watched Liza's ascending figure with a serious expression, but not because he was worried if Liza would get injured, but because he suddenly noticed the man in the distance move closer to them!
