Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer-Novel

After fifteen days.

Arthur and the remaining two are still tied down in the same room and for their dismay, the dead body wasn’t even removed, not being able to access their spiritual energy due to their cultivation being sealed, they are almost starving to death.

Sam didn’t even bother to let them eat to their fill, only giving them some bread at a random time, he has more important things to do.

On this day, he came back with three recording crystals in his hands.

His bone throne is left there intimidating them further, they weren’t able to see the throne clearly when they first saw, so they couldn’t identify the material. But after fifteen days, they clearly saw what kind of materials were used and that gave them chills.

Arthur was sweating buckets with barely any sleep. He has been in odds with Sam many times and he was afraid what would happen if Sam wanted to settle scores.

He might become an extra decoration for this chair.

At this moment, there was a table placed in front of them on which Sam placed three recording crystals.

"Arthur, before we discuss the deal, I have something to show you and you can decide if your information is valuable or not."

As he said, he activated the first crystal and Jack’s figure popped up. At this moment, he is still sitting under the waterfall. But he is not in the same state as before.

He was covered by a think aura and even though, it is a recording they can still feel the sharpness of it.

This is a video recorded after a week of Jack’s training.

At that moment, he was countering the waterfalls with nothing but his sharp sword aura which he developed over the week.

In a week he became a person who can only deduce a single movement to the point of countering it.

As Jack was still training, suddenly a person appeared in the scene and a spear was shot at him.

As the spear zoomed in, the surrounding people became alert and looked at the attacker. There a young man stood with a smirk on his face as he looked Jack coldly.

Jack didn’t move, as the spear moved towards him in an extremely high speed. But just before it could touch his face, he raised his hand and held the spear in its place by holding the spear head. The sharp tip just stopped in front on his nose with only a hair’s breadth. His palm which held the spear head was cut open and blood dripped from it.

He opened his eyes and looked at the person coldly. His face was completely filled with anger and frustration due to the disturbance.

He slowly stood up and stretched his body and came out of the waterfall. His body was still wet and his pants are almost shredded. His body was full of scars that were left by the waterfall.

He made his way downwards as he held the spear with his left hand and the Black Meteorite sword in his right.

He observed the attacker as he watched him closely, He is a person who seemed to be a Level-2 Grand realm cultivator.

"You better have a damn good reason for what you did." Jack said in a low voice. His throat felt husky as he didn’t speak for more than a week.

"Or what? What are you going to do about it?" The attacker laughed it off sarcastically.

"Well, you will see in no time." Jack threw the spear to him and held the sheathed sword by his hip.

The tension in the air grew and the attacker sneered at Jack’s words. Purple lightning crackled around him as he waved his spear. He swung the spear and made a piercing motion.

Jack moved his body and dodged it fluidly. His movements were extremely smooth and looked almost slow motion.

But it is actually extremely fast. He didn’t even bother to unsheathe his sword and just dodged it.

He still remembered the time when they are on the island and have to worry about being attacked by every single beast. He couldn’t even dream about fighting a Level-5 beast much less killing it.

Now, he is going on toe to toe with a person who has strength equal to that of an initial stage Level-5 beast.

He now understood how Sam used to battle those higher than his level. He used the maximum potential his body and the spirtual core, cultivation level, his techniques could offer.

Now, with his Peak Great realm cultivation along with his tempered body, he is sure that he can defeat this person. In fact, he is so confident that he can visualize his winning.

But the power gap is not that easily surpassed and the only thing he can do is rely on technique.

Jack halted his movement after dodging repeated strikes. This time he held the hilt if his sword and just before the spear could strike him, he unsheathed it. The sheathe disappeared into the storage.

The sword hit the spear tip with a blinding light stopping the lightning that was about to strike him, but it was not just defence. The blade tilted a bit when he blocked it and the blinding light that covered the sword a few moments ago flew past the spear in a miraculous curve and hit the opponent squarely on the chest.

The opponent felt a sharp pain on his chest and took a step backward instinctively. There is a smooth cut on his armour and a small cut appeared on his chest from which he was slowly bleeding with a searing pain.

He looked at Jack who is still completely drenched. His face is calm as a still lake. He didn’t even show any expression as if the attack working was just a natural occurrence. His pride took a huge hit.

"Seems like I underestimated you a little. But don’t be happy yet. I will be serious now." As he said that he swung the spear and started making the same piercing motions, but this time the lightning bolts were being shot at Jack.

This is a mid-ranged attack. Not only the spear is keeping Jack at bay, this lightning is keeping him even more far. His sword attacks might be able to attack somewhat mid-range, but this is still a bit far for swordsman at his cultivation level.

But he is not disappointed, rather he is actually curious to see how he could counter this attack from his current distance itself. Even though, he is confident that he can cover the distance, this is his training phase and he can use this spar to execute what he has learned.

He closed his eyes and his sword aura was released. He stopped relying on his eyes and limited his perception to his spiritual sense and that too only for the area of him and his opponent.

His sword aura which was only sharp slowly morphed itself and it became gentle. All this time, he kept on dodging but suddenly he stopped.

He stood still and moved his sword. His sword emitted a sword light every time he moved and every sword light hit the lightning accurately deflecting the attack.

His move was extremely fast and fluid. He not only used his spiritual sense, but also his skin and instinct. He could feel the faint ripples of air when the spear is moved, he was able to block every move without even moving his feet.

Every lightning bolt coming at him was being deflected and after ten moves, Jack stepped forward. He slashed the sword diagonally and the blade of the sword hit the spear head from the side deflecting it, but what happened next shocked the attacker.

The sword light curled around the shaft of the spear as it moved forward like a snake and a deep cut appeared on the palm of the opponent.

"Ahhhhhh...."

Blood started dripping down as he felt an immense pain. He dropped the spear by an instinct. Jack opened his eyes and looked at him with a smirk.

"You better use your strongest move. Or else there is no chance to defeat me." He said confidently. But he is not as calm inside, because his spiritual energy will run out soon. After all, he is not a Great realm cultivator and he doesn’t have same amount of spiritual energy stored in his core.

His moves might have been effective all this while and he didn’t receive any damage, but his consumption is not low. Every attack that came from the opponent need a very large amount of energy from him to be deflected.

So, he is taunting the opponent to let him reveal all his cards and his trick worked. The opponent grabbed the spear and said in a cold tone.

"I wanted to capture you earlier, but now I will definitely kill you." He gritted his teeth and held his spear with both of his hands.

Jack also got ready as he changed his stance, he looked at his opponent with extreme concentration as his grip became harder.

The opponent, started concentrating his spiritual energy at the tip of the spear and a sharp spear head was enveloped with even more sharp lightning almost making it impossible for the blade to be visible.

"Lightning Spear style, The Tempest thrust." The opponent muttered these words and yelled. "Die."

Jack closed his eyes as the spear made its way towards him. His spiritual energy took shape around him and it morphed into countless sword lights. His grip on his sword tightened with a deep breath, he made piercing motion with his sword.

A sharp sword light let the tip of the sword and following it, the remaining sword light surrounding went towards opponent.

The tips of two weapons collided and both of the blasted away. But the sword lights didn’t stop, they flowed like streams as they made their way towards the opponent. The sword lights slashed him left and right as they bombarded him from all sides.

Ten sword lights, only one of the took the attack head on and nine attacked the opponent. Tearing his skin in multiple places.

But Jack wasn’t escaped scot-free.

As dust settled, people saw two people lying on the ground. Jack’s abdomen has a big round hole on it revealing his damaged muscle fibres. His ribs are broken and he puked some blood. He supported himself weakly as he stood with his sword.

The state of his opponent is worse. That guy had exactly nine lacerations on his body.

One of them on his upper chest, two on both sides of his abdomen, two of them to cut the tendons on wrists, two to cut tendons on his feet and two others on his thighs.

Jack made sure that he didn’t hit the vitals, but it would be still impossible for him to move.

Jack popped a pill inside his mouth and slowly made his way towards his opponent.

"What’s your name and purpose?" He asked weakly but his sword was placed on the opponent’s neck.

"I... I am from the Lightning Spear sect, you can’t kill me. If you kill me, you will be hunted down by my sect members." He didn’t forget to threaten Jack.

"Oh, really?" Jack smiled and looked at him dead in the eyes.

"I would like to see, how they will hunt me down, Good bye." With that, he thrusted the sword tip into his throat, ending his life. He took the spatial ring walked back to the waterfall. After healing his wounds until they scabbed and recovering some spiritual energy, he went back to the waterfall to cultivate.
