The Annihilator: Killer Of Gods

The entire process took Karsha 45 days. However, after days of meticulous weaving, Karsha was able to achieve what many had failed at. He successfully incorporated the element into the technique, further increasing its damage output. The 100% power boost of the Golden Light element was now imbued into the core of the technique, raising its power output permanently by 100%.

With this accomplishment, Karsha was now left with the task of mastering the technique. His current mastery was at the F level, which meant he could only summon 10 swords. Initially, this might not seem like much, but after imbuing the Golden Light element into the technique, Karsha was eager to test its newfound power.

"Mr. Clone, activate the first-level defense," Karsha commanded. The clone obeyed without question, activating the first level of the Titan Defense Art, Titan Wall.

Karsha smiled as he beheld the majestic diamond walls standing 7 meters tall, 5 meters wide, and 1 meter thick. Anyone would admire the tall, magnificent wall, if not for its imposing nature, then certainly for its beauty.

"Sword Pool," Karsha muttered, and at once, the 200-meter-tall avatar of the Dark One appeared behind him. Raising its hand, a large dark swirling pool materialized in the sky.

At first, Karsha couldn't help but frown. He had expected the nature of the technique to show some similarities to the Golden Light. However, when the technique was activated, the Golden Light was nowhere to be found. The pool was as dark as ever, showing no sign of even a small golden hue.

His worry was cut short when the first sword emerged from the pool. While the pool was a swirling mass of pure darkness, the swords that started appearing from its depths had a golden aura around them. Each sword looked as if it had been dipped in golden oil.

The Golden Light, manifesting as an aura, wrapped around the swords, giving them a radiant appearance.

"Magnificent," Karsha muttered as he gazed at the 2-meter longswords emerging from the Sword Pool. After admiring the swords for a while, he willed them to shoot toward the defense the clone had raised.

At once, the ten swords shot forward at an incredible speed, making Karsha arch an eyebrow. The speed at which the swords moved was so fast that even with the movement technique Karsha was mastering, the chances of him walking out unscathed would be slim, especially if the swords numbered in the hundreds of thousands.

"What if there are thousands?" Karsha shuddered as he noticed small cracks forming in the diamond walls from the barrage of swords ramming into them.

"I need to master this technique fast and unlock more swords," he muttered. The greedy side of Karsha surfaced as he realized the technique would be crucial for many of his future endeavors. Mastering it was imperative.

============

The first level of the technique focuses on unlocking the swords, which serves as the foundation for the second level. The more swords unlocked, the more powerful the second level becomes.

"At least an A-level mastery will be okay," Karsha muttered, gazing at the sword pool and the Avatar. He wanted nothing more than to teach the overlords who the real Overlord is. He had been running from them for too long because he was weak and lacked powerful skills. But with this technique and a little luck, he might just become the Overlord of the island in less than ten days.

However, for that to happen, Karsha needed to master the first two levels, with the first level being the most critical. The more swords he managed to unlock, the higher his chances of forming a very powerful giant sword at level two.

He then began to comprehend the technique. Luckily for him, the process was simple. He had to form a connection with the swords, which required mental and soul strength.

This connection would allow him to control the swords at will, but it required a lot of mental strength. Fortunately, Karsha possessed a strong enough mind to handle complex and countless computations without feeling any stress. Creating connections with the swords was right up his alley.

Sitting in a lotus posture, Karsha let his mind drift into the dark, ominous swirling pool of shadows as he began forming connections with the swords within.

The process was akin to imprinting his will onto the swords. Karsha, who had some understanding of Runesmithing, immediately comprehended this and began working without delay.

< You have attained E Mastery. 100 swords unlocked >

Despite the process being relatively easy for Karsha, it took him an entire day to advance to the second step. The reason was that Karsha was meticulously selecting the swords with which he was forming the imprint.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

For some reason, Karsha felt the swords were real, something that shouldn't have been possible. However, since no harm was caused, he chose the swords he felt the strongest attachment.

He didn't know how, but he felt an attachment to the swords, and for some reason, he also sensed the same sensation he experienced during his battle with the mutant snakes.

The only difference now was that he felt the sensation even without being engaged in any battle, indicating that the longer he spent comprehending the technique, the higher his chances of unlocking this sensation.

< Ding! Your mastery of the first level of the Dark Prince Hell Art has increased. >

< You have attained D Mastery. 1000 swords unlocked >

Five days later, Karsha managed to reach the D level, gaining the ability to summon 1,000 swords. However, while this was a significant achievement, Karsha's focus was on the sensation that kept growing stronger by the second.

The more he linked with the swords, the more intense the sensation became. For the first time, Karsha was in the right mindset, allowing him to sense the sensation even more clearly.

'Why does this feel familiar to me?' he wondered but didn't dwell on it. He still had a long way to go and little time to do it. He had already spent over 400 days, leaving him with a little over 400 days to go.

As Karsha progressed, comprehending the technique began to take longer than he had hoped. However, the more connections he made with the swords, the easier it became, even though it was still time-consuming.

< Ding! Your mastery of the first level of the Dark Prince Hell Art has increased. >

< You have attained C Mastery. 10,000 swords unlocked >

Thirty days later, Karsha reached the C stage, unlocking 10,000 swords. Without delay, he started working toward B mastery, where he would be able to unlock 100,000 swords.

The sensation also became clearer to Karsha, bringing a slight smile to his face. He could vaguely sense it, and from the feeling alone, he knew he was on the verge of gaining something profound. Although he had reserved some time to deal with the Overlords, spending some of it on this endeavor was something Karsha didn't mind doing.

He needed all the help he could get, and if what he was sensing awakened, he would be capable of achieving much more than he already had.

"Almost there," Karsha thought inwardly. Another 50 days had passed, and he was still not done comprehending the next stage. However, he was drawing nearer.

Connecting with 100,000 swords was no easy feat, but Karsha was determined to surpass expectations when he left the island.

Being able to summon a million swords would make him stand out among his peers. Although he was a Grandmaster stage cultivator, if he managed to unlock one million swords, he could easily defeat a Saint and potentially injure or even kill a Sage.

He was getting stronger by the second and would soon become even more powerful than he could have ever imagined. To achieve that, he needed stronger techniques and skills, and training in the Dark Prince Hell Art was the best fit for him now.

< Ding! Your mastery of the first level of the Dark Prince Hell Art has increased. >

< You have attained B Mastery. 100,000 swords unlocked >

"That's more like it," Karsha muttered after unlocking the 100,000 swords on the 61st day.

With the sensation almost within reach, Karsha began forming connections with more and more swords. If he could unlock a million swords, he would be able to form an incredibly powerful sword once he proceeded to the second level.

His mastery of the first level determined the strength of the second level. The more swords he unlocked, the stronger the sword he could form in the second level.

Karsha, who wanted nothing more than to become a formidable force, started using his brain capacity to its fullest. Thanks to the time tablet amplifying his comprehension speed, Karsha's mind entered a different dimension. His already impressive comprehension speed skyrocketed, allowing him to link more and more swords by the second.

Seventy days went by in a flash, but he was still not close to unlocking the A level or fully grasping the sensation that was almost within his reach. Despite this, Karsha didn't complain. He remained in the lotus posture, continually linking more swords.

Another twenty days passed, bringing Karsha's total time spent to over 700 days, leaving him with only 146 days to go. However, since he aimed for the A level, he would not stop until he achieved it.

The sensation felt closer than ever. Karsha could tell that one more breakthrough was all he needed to unlock the secret sensation. Because of this, he didn't allow his brain any rest, channeling all his focus into creating connections with the swords.

"Almost there," he thought. After another six days, Karsha let a small smile escape his lips. He was closer than he had thought. He just needed a little more time, and one million swords would heed his call when summoned.

The sensation hung by a thread. The prospect of having one million swords at his disposal made Karsha grin from ear to ear.

< Ding! Your mastery of the first level of the Dark Prince Hell Art has increased. >

< You have attained A Mastery. 1,000,000 swords unlocked >

The message appeared after two days, making Karsha sigh and smile broadly. His smile grew wild as he realized he had finally comprehended the sensation that had been plaguing him all this time.
