2026-09-24 13:46:09Tirta stood in the middle of an open area, with Spiritual Energy swirling around his body. The Blazing Flame Sword in his hand emitted a faint glow, ready to face any threat that might appear.
From the shadows of the trees, two figures dressed entirely in black stepped forward. Their faces were hidden beneath their hoods, leaving only their sharp eyes visible, radiating killing intent. “Young man,” one of them spoke in a cold voice. “We have been watching you for quite some time. Hand over that Level 5 Beast Crystal, and we might consider letting you live.” Tirta stared at them without expression. “Dark Shadows, huh? I have heard rumors about you. But if you think you can take something from me, you are gravely mistaken.” One of them let out a low laugh. “How bold. But your courage will not save you.” They drew their respective weapons, a black sword emitting a cold aura and a dagger glowing with poisonous purple light. Tirta smiled faintly. “Then let’s begin.” The two attacked simultaneously, moving with incredible speed. The black sword shot directly toward Tirta’s chest, while the poisoned dagger attempted to strike his left side. Tirta activated Shadow Step, and his body disappeared like a blurred shadow. Both attacks missed, striking nothing but empty air. “Suction Technique!” Tirta launched a counterattack, creating a powerful current of energy that pulled one of them toward him. With a single swing of his sword, he nearly struck his opponent, but the man managed to block the attack with his black sword. “He’s fast!” one of the assassins shouted, signaling his companion to increase the pressure. They began using a combined technique, merging their cold aura and poison to create a dangerous field around Tirta. The air around him grew heavier, while the spreading poison began interfering with his breathing. However, Tirta remained calm. He gathered his Spiritual Energy and concentrated his strength into his next attack. “Second Level Sword Technique, Mountain Cleaving!” A powerful streak of light shot from his sword, tearing through the poisonous field and striking one of the assassins. The man was sent flying backward, a serious wound appearing across his chest. “Damn it!” The other assassin launched a counterattack, striking with his poisoned dagger. Tirta dodged with agile movements, but the tip of the dagger managed to graze his arm. The poison immediately began spreading through his body. Tirta retreated several steps, feeling the effects of the poison weakening his body. However, he refused to surrender. Ding... [Poison detected. Purification activated.] His body returned to normal within seconds, leaving both assassins stunned. “How is that possible? Our poison should not have been removed so easily!” one of them shouted angrily. Tirta smiled coldly. “Did you really think I could be incapacitated by a little poison like that?” He leaped forward and attacked with all his strength. The Blazing Flame Sword shone even brighter, releasing scorching energy that caused the surrounding air to tremble. “Third Level Sword Technique, Heaven Cleaving!” The attack struck both assassins simultaneously, creating an explosion of energy that shook the ground. One of them died instantly, while the other was thrown to the ground, his body covered in wounds. Tirta walked toward the surviving assassin and stared at him coldly. The assassin coughed up blood but continued to smile mockingly. “Do you think this is over? You have just started a war with Dark Shadows. We will continue hunting you.” Tirta swung his sword, ending the man's life without hesitation. “Then die.” Ding... [System: Host has defeated 2 enemy cultivators. Experience Points increased by 800.] Tirta walked slowly away from the depths of the Ninth Star Forest. His body was covered in minor wounds, but his gaze remained sharp. The Beast Crystal and spoils he had obtained from his previous battles were now safely stored inside his storage ring. Ding... [System: Congratulations! Host has exited the Central Zone of the Ninth Star Forest. Additional reward granted.] [System: Host has received 500 Experience Points + 2x Recovery Potions.] Tirta stopped for a moment and looked at the scenery beyond the forest. The sun was beginning to rise, illuminating the vast valleys in the distance. The fresh air replaced the oppressive atmosphere of the forest. Although the journey through the forest had been dangerous, the results had not disappointed him. He opened his status screen to check his progress. [Status] Name: Tirta Handoyo Cultivation: Earth Realm, Star 5 Experience Points: 4480 Available Techniques: Suction Technique, Shadow Step, Heaven and Earth Splitting Sword Technique (Maxed), Basic Purification Technique Inventory: Blazing Flame Sword (Approaching its usage limit) 1 Level 5 Beast Crystal 2 Level 4 Beast Crystals 3 Level 3 Beast Crystals 2x Recovery Potions Seeing his status, Tirta nodded in satisfaction. His experience in the Ninth Star Forest had strengthened his body and techniques, while the crystals he obtained would be extremely useful for further increasing his strength. However, one thing caught his attention. The Blazing Flame Sword, his primary weapon that had accompanied him throughout his journey, was beginning to show signs of deterioration. He needed new materials to repair it or perhaps even forge a stronger weapon. “Heavenly Flame Valley,” Tirta thought. “That will be my next destination.”

Chapter 12: The Beginning of RevengeTirta stared toward the center of the city, where the headquarters of the Herlambang Family stood majestically. His eyes were filled with determination."Beto, wait for me."Tirta took a deep breath as he adjusted the Herlambang Family guard uniform he had taken from one of his previous victims. The black and gold uniform fit his body perfectly, with the emblem of the Herlambang Family engraved on the chest. Although he disliked wearing the identity of his enemy, Tirta knew that this disguise was an important step in infiltrating their headquarters.He leaned against the wall of a small building in one corner of Liuyun City, his eyes observing a group of men who appeared to be patrolling around the headquarters. From their conversation, Tirta concluded that the security inside was tighter than usual."System," he whispered softly, "show me the map of the Herlambang Family headquarters and its vital points."Ding...[World Map activated.]A small ho

Tirta moved with light steps, his body almost blending into the darkness of a narrow alley in Lenovo City. The sky had begun to glow orange, signaling that morning was approaching. However, his mind remained focused on one thing: the Herlambang Family had to be destroyed down to its roots.The system sounded, providing the latest report.[The impact of the Star Annihilation Formation has eliminated most of the enemies around the inn. However, three individuals with significant strength managed to survive and are now moving toward the western part of the city.]Tirta narrowed his eyes. "Three individuals? They must be the Herlambang Family's core guards."He quickened his pace, following the route indicated by the system. It did not take long for him to reach a relatively deserted main road. In the distance, he could see three figures wearing black and gold uniforms. One of them carried a large spear, while the other two appeared to be holding long swords."So, they really sent their b

Tirta closed his eyes, but his mind continued working, carefully arranging the steps he needed to take. The mission from the system was not merely an opportunity to obtain points, but also a chance to take revenge in a deeper way.Outside the room, the night grew deeper. However, in a dark corner of the city, several other figures had begun to move.At the Herlambang Family HeadquartersBeto, despite being injured from the previous battle, sat in a large chair inside the main meeting room of the Herlambang Family. His face looked tense, but his eyes burned with hatred."What is the report from the Shadow Squad?" Beto asked an elderly man in a gray robe, one of the clan's trusted advisers.The old man lowered his head anxiously. "We lost contact with them, Sir. There has been no news from them so far."Beto slammed his hand against the table, causing the teacup on it to fall. "Trash! Can't they even handle a single person?!"Another young man, dressed in black clothes embroidered with

Tirta, who was meditating, immediately opened his eyes when the system's voice sounded. The aura within his body that had been slowly recovering was now filled with vigilance.Ding...[Danger detected.]Tirta stood up, his eyes carefully scanning every corner of the room. "Where?" he asked softly.The system immediately responded.[Above.]Tirta immediately raised his head. Through the dim lantern light, he could see the wooden ceiling above him, but his eyes detected nothing.Without hesitation, he waved his hand and activated the Star Annihilation Formation that he had used before. A circle of energy appeared around the room, creating an invisible barrier that protected the chamber from outside interference.Ding...[Star Annihilation Formation activated in defensive mode.]As the formation became active, Tirta felt the atmosphere inside the room change. A faint scent, resembling burning leaves, began to spread through the air. He looked toward a small ventilation opening in the cei

Beto, who knew nothing about the system Tirta was using, merely grinned smugly. "Are you giving up now? Or do you still want to try fighting us with that little bit of strength you possess?"Tirta raised his head and looked at him calmly. "No. I am simply giving you one last chance to retreat. But it seems you have chosen the wrong path."Tirta activated the formation with a movement of his hands. A large golden circle appeared on the ground, surrounding Beto and his forces. Ancient runes floated in the air, and the atmosphere around them suddenly became oppressive."What is this?!" Beto Herlambang shouted as an overwhelming pressure crashed down upon his body.Tirta did not answer. The energy accumulated within the Star Annihilation Formation began to reach its peak, producing a sound resembling rolling thunder. Beto's followers tried to escape, but they were trapped within the locked area of the formation."This is the consequence of your arrogance," Tirta said coldly.With one fina
Chapter 11: The Furious Herlambang Family
After the brief yet intense battle with Young Master Gery and his followers, Tirta stood in the middle of the market, which had begun to grow quiet. His swift and precise sword movements had eliminated his opponents in a short amount of time. However, despite being satisfied with the outcome, Tirta remained tense.He looked at the bodies lying on the ground, realizing that this battle was not merely about fighting individuals. It was also a message to those who wanted to trample over others for their own benefit.Just as Tirta was about to continue on his way, a loud voice came from the direction of the city gate."Are you all really going to let this man leave just like that?!"The voice came from a large man wearing luxurious clothes decorated with the emblem of a clan. His eyes burned with fury, while a powerful aura surrounded his body. Behind him stood a large group of black-clad followers, all prepared to act.Tirta shifted his gaze toward the man, realizing that he must be a hi
