From Sword to Slaughter: Evolution

The people hiding behind the trees were left unscathed.

The level of control Lin Luoluo had over her power was simply astounding!

Without even looking back, Lin Luoluo continued walking forward. However, several large figures emerged from the area ahead of her.

"Tsk, tsk."

"So you're really here."

"The descendant of the Silver Clan, Lin Luoluo."

A voice called out from the front.

Lin Luoluo raised her eyes and looked ahead.

Several men, exuding powerful auras, stepped into view.

Martial Kings.

Lin Luoluo's heightened senses instantly detected their strength.

"Five Martial Kings."

Lin Luoluo narrowed her eyes.

"Hehe, to capture someone like you, we had to bring out several Martial Kings at once. We can't afford any chances."

"Especially since you managed to kill Bald Head."

One of the men, holding a broad-bladed saber, sneered.

The others wielded various weapons—sword, staff, spear, halberd.

These five Martial Kings, each with expertise in different weapon arts, had gathered together!

If it had been a month ago, Lin Luoluo wouldn't have stood a chance against them.

But now, things were completely different.

"All of them are using S-rank weapons, huh?"

"As expected of Martial Kings," Ye Fan said with a hint of excitement as he observed the weapons they carried.

S-rank weapons were a far cry from ordinary ones. If Lin Luoluo could shatter these S-rank weapons, they could gain a substantial amount of evolution points!

Breaking just one would yield at least several hundred thousand points.

And if they could kill the Martial Kings themselves, the rewards would be even greater.

"So, are you going to surrender peacefully, or do we need to get our hands dirty?" The Martial King holding the spear pointed its tip toward Lin Luoluo, his voice cold.

"Scram."

Lin Luoluo's gaze swept over them, her tone flat and indifferent.

"You're looking for death!"

The spear-wielding Martial King's face contorted with fury.

He felt utterly insulted.

Without hesitation, he thrust his spear toward Lin Luoluo.

Lin Luoluo moved swiftly, her body a blur as she effortlessly dodged the strike.

By now, her mastery of the Phantom Body Technique had reached an extraordinary level!

"Everyone, attack together!" the spear-wielder shouted after his attack missed.

They had come with the intention of overwhelming Lin Luoluo through sheer numbers from the start.

After all, Lin Luoluo had already slain a Martial King. Although Bald Head might have been weaker than them, he was still a Martial King.

Moreover, Lin Luoluo possessed a sword powerful enough to shatter S-rank weapons.

At the spear-wielder's command, the other four Martial Kings charged simultaneously from all directions!

Lin Luoluo's pupils contracted slightly. She activated her will, channeling some of her energy into Extinction.

The intricate pattern on Extinction turned a deep blood-red.

Whoosh—

She swung her sword in a horizontal arc.

A surge of sword energy shot forth.

The three Martial Kings charging from the front instinctively raised their weapons to block the attack.

Boom—

Though they managed to block it, the sheer force of the sword energy sent them flying backward several paces.

Clang, clang, clang—

Meanwhile, Lin Luoluo engaged the other two Martial Kings in close combat, their weapons clashing with hers in a flurry of strikes.

The sound of their weapons colliding echoed loudly through the forest.

The sword energy emanating from Extinction was overwhelmingly powerful.

As the two Martial Kings fought her, they could feel the sharp energy biting at their hands, causing their skin to sting.

Their combat uniforms began to tear, showing signs of wear from the intense battle.

After just a few strikes, they noticed that their weapons were already starting to chip!

"Impossible!"

The Martial King wielding the broad-bladed saber saw the nicks and chips forming along the edge of his blade and was filled with disbelief.

His saber, an S-rank weapon, had survived countless battles over the past decade without any issues.

But now, after just a few clashes with Lin Luoluo, it was damaged!

This sword was far too sharp!

Phantom Dance!

Seizing the opportunity, Lin Luoluo activated Extinction's skill and launched an attack on the saber-wielding Martial King.

Dozens of afterimages appeared as she unleashed a flurry of strikes!

Since Extinction had evolved from S-rank to SS-rank, its abilities had grown even stronger.

Her sword strikes were now faster than ever.

Clang, clang, clang—

A rapid succession of metallic clashes resounded as her sword met the Martial King's saber.

In the blink of an eye, the saber shattered completely!

[Absorbed special energy, gained 684,122 evolution points]

Over 600,000 evolution points, close to 700,000!

Ye Fan was thrilled as he saw the system notification.

Though compared to the one billion points required for the next evolution, it was still far from enough.

The saber-wielding Martial King stared in disbelief at his broken weapon.

Slash!

Without hesitation, Lin Luoluo swung Extinction down.

The Martial King, realizing he couldn't avoid the strike, quickly gathered his energy to form a protective barrier around himself.

But with Extinction's new passive ability—Energy Severing—the barrier was meaningless.

With one swift motion, her sword cleaved the energy shield in half!

"Impossible!"

The Martial King was utterly dumbfounded.

Energy barriers were supposed to be the strongest form of protection for warriors.

Yet Lin Luoluo had easily sliced through it with a single strike!

"No!!!"

With a final scream, the sword pierced through his chest.

It all happened in the blink of an eye.

As the saber-wielding Martial King collapsed, another Martial King lunged from behind, thrusting his sword at Lin Luoluo.

Clang!

Lin Luoluo swiftly withdrew Extinction from her fallen opponent and used it to parry the incoming strike.

The three Martial Kings who had been sent flying earlier had just regained their footing when they saw the saber-wielding Martial King covered in blood.

His body swayed before crumpling to the ground.

[Killed Martial King-level warrior, gained 1,000,000 evolution points]

"He... he was killed!?"

The three remaining Martial Kings trembled in shock at the sight.
