The Killerworm had absorbed the spiritual Qi behind his palm attack rendering it useless!
Hmm?!
Realizing that the situation was off, the little sword thought for a moment before recalling something and then trembled in panic.
"Wait.. that is no ordinary Killerworm.. it is actually a Parasitic Killerworm! It belongs to a far more superior and deadly species of the Killerworm..!" the little sword said in a horrified voice.
I should've known earlier, Killerworms could only live in the desert and not on rigid soil.. furthermore, the burrows they make is only a meter in diameter, but the holes here are bigger than that!
"Parasitic Killerworms?" Duan Li said with a hint of confusion. He had never heard of this species before.
Noting the look of bewilderment on his young master, the little sword explained, "Parasitic Killerworms lives in damp soil, but they rarely came out to the surface and chose to live deep underground instead!"
"In contrast to the carnivorous nature of the common Killerworms, Parasitic Killerworms usually does not eat people because they feed on spiritual Qi from the Subterranean river! However, once they have expanded in numbers and their food is no longer enough for all of them, they will start to attack villages and towns!"
Hearing this, Duan Li's countenance turned grim, but he still found it weird.
"Why haven't I heard of this type of Killerworms? Surely, if they had attacked villages before, I would've heard about it.."
"That's because these Parasitic Killerworms had long gone extinct! Back in the old days, their infestations were getting out of hand and they even dared to attack towns en ma.s.se, until cities were no exceptions!" the little sword replied.
"The cultivators in that era banded together and sweped the entire continent clean of these Parasitic Killerworms, until they eventually rooted out its queen!"
He still remembered those days, as even the Endless Monarch had personally helped in containing these wretched creatures from behind the scene, effectively neutralizing the entire species!
Had it not been the case, the current Tian continent would be infested with them, and if humans were not enough as its source of food, it will suck in the spiritual Qi from animals and other monsters, until eventually the plants itself!
This was why they were called as the Parasitic Killerworms, as they would eventually drive a whole world into a state of apocalypse!
In other words, while a few of them posed no threat, their sheer numbers back then had made them the apex predator of all living things!
Duan Li had not expected that the trial this time would involve him fighting against the common enemy of mankind, and at the thought of this, he grew extremely hostile towards them!

"But since they absorbed spiritual Qi, skill attack would not work on them, so how did the people back then managed to get rid of them?" he asked.
The little sword trembled and was hesitating to answer this, but he eventually told Duan Li anyway.
"Their skin is extremely thick, so no blunt weapon would work on them, but a sharp weapon.." he was just about to continue when Duan Li interjected because he was so slow.
"Oh? You mean like a sword? Submit yourself to me then!" Duan Li grinned.
From the little sword's reaction, he knew that somehow the little sword was quite disgusted with the Parasitic Killerworms, even phobia perhaps.
But since the little sword was the only sharp weapon he has, other than the Eternal Great Axe which was made out of lightning elements, he could only use the former in this battle.
s.h.i.+ngg!!
The little sword could only relented helplessly as he enlarged himself into a full one-meter long sword!
Swis.h.!.+
With a vertical cut to the mid section of the Parasitic Killerworm, the latter was cleanly slashed into two pieces!
Thud! The Parasitic Killerworm wriggled on the ground for a moment before its life was snuffed out and its blood spilled the greyish soil.
Dead.
BRRRR!!
In the next instant, the ground began to shook and tremble intensely as if an earthquake was happening!
"Now that they have smelled the blood of their kin, the rest are probably awaken from their slumber now.." the little sword said as he sweat nervously.
Today, I am going to become filthy with the blood and stains from these lowly creatures.. d.a.m.n their ancestors! How dare they breed such ugly things!
Ssuu!! Ssuu!!
Hundreds of the Parasitic Killerworms jumped out from their holes at the same time, and without giving them any chance to coordinate themselves, Duan Li immediately dashed forward and slashed repeatedly.
Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+
With each slash, one or two of the Parasitic Killerworms would be sliced to death in an instant!
ROARR!!
The Parasitic Killerworms was enraged with Duan Li casually killing them off left and right in front of their eyes. After all, in their opinion, the human in front of them was only a food to fill their bellies, so how dare a mere food fight back against them?
Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+
Meanwhile, the little sword was evidently surprised, because he knew how hard the skin of these worms were! In fact, it was so hard that only Golden core realm cultivators would be able to instant kill them like Duan Li did just now.
Under that realm, perhaps only few lucky strikes would be able to sever them clean once in a while, but his young master managed to do it every time he was slashed forward!
Hiss!!
Even if his edges were extremely sharp and would never go dull, how far a cultivator could cut with it depends on their capabilities and swordsmans.h.i.+p!
It was the same as chopping off a pile of wood, no matter how sharp the edges were, if the technique was not right, then one would need a few attempts to chop them clean in half!
"Could it be that due to attaining True Martial Instinct, young master's prowess in handling swords had also increased by leaps and bounds?" he thought to himself feeling awed.
If that were the case, then this young master of his was truly a prodigy!
It was said that the very essence of combat was only one, adaptability. If one could reach the pinnacle of this essence, then no matter if it were swords, sabers, spears, axe, or even empty handed, one would be able to execute any attacks, defend and counters flawlessly, even if it were their first time using the said weapons!
An expert that had managed to comprehend the crux of it all, so far, he only knew of one person that could do this - the lord of all realms, Endless Monarch!
At the hand of the Endless Monarch, even a gra.s.s of blade would be able to sever the world into two!
Heck, if he wanted, even severing a universe clean in half would be doable if he put in effort and this was not an exageration!
The realm that the Endless Monarch has attained, it was not something that could be imagined by those whom has not yet reached it!
It was similar to the comparison of a frog in a well, how would it know the vast of the ocean if it had never seen one by itself?
However, this was to be expected. After all, Duan Li was THE young master!
While it was nowhere as close as the Endless Monarch, perhaps only an inkling of the prowess of the latter, this young master of his had already showed superb handling in using him, the ultimate sword of all swords!
Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+
...
Deep in the recesses of the underground, a behemoth creature the size of 800 meters long coiled on a huge spirit stone that was shaped into a cube.
At this moment, the thousand eyes on this huge behemoth abruptly opened at the same time!
This was the queen of the Parasitic Killerworm, and it had detected an enormous amounts of spiritual Qi source above ground!
ROAARRRRR!!
