Chapter 212: Ball of KI

Many monsters were attacking the ship. The most dangerous one was a Heavenly Establishment level 10 shark. This shark could control its QI and concentrate it on its teeth. These teeth would be able to pierce through diamonds as if they were crackers, and thanks to them, the ship suffered a lot of damage.

The first Ed did, was locate the monsters that are underwater. Thousands of Telekinesis threads emerged out of his body and started to coil around the ship, both under and over water. Thanks to his upgrade from Heavenly to Immortal, the number of threads became thousands from hundreds, and they managed to become bulkier.

The threads formed a cocoon around the ship, protecting it from the monsters. It was akin to an energy field that was impenetrable. Not even the sharks could penetrate through it.

Since the field was made from Ed's Telekinesis, it was like a part of his body and anything that touched it was relayed to Ed's super brains. Thanks to his Parallel Thinking, he devised a three-layer plan. First, one of his brains would register the position of the monsters that attacked the field. The second one would open a portal using Space magic connecting Ed to the monsters. And the last one would send a KI wave.

"The first one is coming up, WarGreymon!" In less than an instant, Ed took care of a monster. His execution was so fast, so quick, that his portal closed up before any water came to his side.

Like a bullet, a shark emerged out of the water. WarGreymon, who was flying, moved like a silver and golden bullet and slashed the shark into six parts. The next one was a shark, and then an octopus. More and more sea monsters lost their lives before they could register what was happening. Ed and WarGeymon's team play didn't allow them rest time.

The ship's defenders, accomplished cultivators, were shaking. They could see what true power was like. What true might could make possible. The ship's staff and residents could understand how the rumors about Ed's power came to be. And they also understood that they weren't rumors but it was a reality.

The ship remained undamaged after Ed's interference, and the monsters attacking were taken care of. Only one, that remained hidden for the whole duration, appeared. It was a gigantic anglerfish, whose mouth looked like the entrance to the abyss. It opened it wide and sucked the water, along with the ship.

"You're hungry, aren't you? Then, please allow this lowly human to satisfy your stomach!" Ed scanned the fish and could see that it was Immortal Establishment. He didn't care about the fact that such fish live in deep waters but only focused on terminating it.

Ed put his right hand up and started gathering KI above it. A small ball of KI started appearing and grew as it formed itself. It was of a golden color. The ball made a small tornado around and blew the hot wind to the vicinity. The ship started shaking due to its power, and the gallery watching Ed started screaming out of fear.

The KI ball continued to grow until it was bigger than the anglerfish's mouth. It was akin to a small sun.

"Eat this you oversized fishy!" Just as the ship was in front of the anglerfish's mouth, Ed threw the KI ball. Needless to say, it was too late for the fish to escape. The KI ball engulfed the bulk of the fish and incinerated it down to its last bone. The seawater around it boiled to the degree that it became water vapor instantly.

Any monster near the ship ran for its life, as it could see the strongest predator around was killed in an instant. Ed was quite happy as he managed to get two Gacha tickets out of this little hunt. The carcasses of sharks and other monsters he killed were stored in his Inventory. He returned to his room with Agumon without letting anyone ask him anything. He passed by Emilia's room and entered.

Emilia, Bella, and Suika were in the middle of playing a card game. Ed had made it on a whim and used it as a form of entertainment. For some reason, Suika was rather good at it and managed to win 90% of the time regardless of her opponent. Even Ed, the creator, was no match.

"Didn't you guys feel the vibrations?" Ed asked them.

"We did." Such a harmonious perfectly synced answer made Ed's eyebrows twitch.

"Why didn't you come to check it out?"

"We knew you would check it out, so we left it to you."

"…Enjoy your time…" With nothing to say, Ed left them with these words before he left. He returned to his room and spent his time either playing around with his KI or sleeping. The hours went by and the ship arrived on the shore of the Central Continent. Ed and his companions descended first, as no other passenger dared to do it before them.

"We're finally here!" Merry stretched her hands and legs while floating in the air. Ed's group caught the attention of many people on the side of the road. Yet, no one dared to stop them. Sieg's figure and eyes struck fear in their hearts, so much that they averted their eyes. Ed found it displeasing, as he knew it would hurt Sieg's feelings.

Still, they continued their journey. The group encountered the same Koma Inu like primates in the same area where Ed found them last time. Of course, it was a one-sided slaughter. After reaching the tower city, Ed headed straight to the entrance. Unlike last time, he didn't see many people around. Most of them were simply the residents of the city.

"The tower is closed until an issue is solved." A man standing in front of the entrance told them. Ed felt that things had changed a lot during his absence. Usually, thugs and bandits would be scouting their prey by the entrance. Yet, only the guard was around.

"What issue?"

"A boss monster has gone berserk for over a year on the ninth floor. No one has been able to clear it and many people died. We're waiting until a capable cultivator can stop it."

While the guard spoke, he failed to notice a grin forming on Ed's face.


CREATORS' THOUGHTS
Shigun Shigun

Hello everyone! Sorry for the very late release, I was hella busy today. I believe I told you that I'm starting uni again, which means that the release time will be crazy random. I'll try not to affect the release rate, but if it can't be helped you'll have to excuse me. Thank you for reading the novel!

PS: For those that joined my discord, I won't be able to answer anyone since the WIFI in my uni doesn't allow it (For no f****** reason). You'll have to excuse me...

Chapter 213: A Familiar Spot on the Ninth Floor

"Stop! I told you the tower is closed off!" Ed and the rest tried to enter but the guard got in their way. "Like I said, we're waiting for a capable cultivator! You'll just die in there!"

"Why would care about what happens to us? Plus, we're more than capable." The guard had previously caught Ed by the shoulder in order to stop him, but now he regretted it. Ed flung him away and walked into the tower along with Bella and the others.

"Just like last time, they were teleported from the entrance to the first floor. Emilia and Bella, who did not visit the tower before, were caught off guard. Still, they managed to sober up quickly. The change in scenery left them flabbergasted.

"We're in a different space or dimension. The tower is not what it seems from the outside, but there is a whole different world on the inside." Ed explained as he could understand what they were thinking. "Let's explore a little."

The eleven of them moved around the first floor. Same as the time when Ed visited, there was no one around. They took their time sightseeing, as no monster dared to attack them by feeling the aura exuded by Ed's monsters. Still, so as not to waste time, they started looking for the floor boss. Ed didn't have the ability to teleport around when he first visited the tower, so he didn't mark the areas of the floor bosses.

Still, thanks to his strong memory, he managed to locate the area when he killed the big bunny last time. There, he noticed a humanoid figure with bunny ears and musketeer clothes.

"It's the bunnyketeer!!" Suika jumped up and down as she pointed at the monster. It was the monsters they encountered first on the twelfth floor.

"Nyu?" The bunnyketeer noticed their presences and turned around to look. Then, he noticed Raikou's presence. Rage and fear switched around as he rushed at them with a rapier in his hand.

What the bunnyketeer failed to notice, was that no one was paying him any attention.

"What's a bunnyketeer?" Emilia asked innocently.

"It's a bunny and a musketeer's fusion. Our very own, Ed's creation!" Merry quickly spilled the beans sending Ed into a downward spiral of embarrassment.

"Pu…!" Emilia let out a laugh before she could stop herself.

"It's cute!" Bella liked both the creature and the name.

"Nyu! Nyunyu nyuuu!" The bunny, that couldn't talk, protested by using some cute sounds. Raikou instantly finished it off by snapping its neck. It was an exact replay of the last. Before Bella could react to the death of the bunnyketeer, the teleportation light took them away.

"You can let loose," Ed noticed Bella pouting, and spoke to her. She didn't get the chance to fight at all during their trip, which she was eager to do. She took out the Katana that he made her and started going room by room in the ant nest-like floor. Ed remembered how he did the same thing with blindfolds on.

After having their fill of hunting, they headed to the boss room. It was the same three golems that they dispatched last time. This time, Bella took them on. The reason why Ed allowed her to fight was that he wanted her to gain experience. Thanks to the diverse collections of monsters inside the tower, she would be able to get much better much faster. Even if it was against weaker opponents.

Third floor, fourth…They only stopped once they reached the seventh floor, Sieg's previous floor.

"Ah, are those humans? I thought no one was allowed to enter…" Ed looked at a silhouette, barely visible inside the mist, and shouted. They started walking towards the figure and Emilia noticed something wrong.

"Miss, are you okay?" As she reached out to touch the figure, it turned around. A half rotten face greeted Emilia, as Ed chuckled. Still, unlike him, Emilia immediately penetrated the head of the zombie, killing it. Ed remembered how he reacted during his last visit and decided never to tell any of them.

"Ehehehe…" He froze as he heard a sinister laugh, and as he turned around, he noticed Goburou's signature teasing face.

'Don't you dare say it!!' Ed did his best to communicate using his eyes. Luckily for him, it seemed like Goburou gave him a bit of mercy this time.

The group continued to conquer floors while allowing Bella to train while they watched over her. Ed didn't stop her from getting injured. Instead, he allowed her to experience true life and death situations. She had suffered a mental scar from the time she was kidnapped and saw Becky almost dying. This was her best attempt at becoming stronger.

Although Bella wasn't able to kill any of the floor bosses past the seventh floor, she could hold her own against them. It was only natural, as the bosses that spawned were all Legendary quality. Even Ed struggled against some of them.

As the hunt continued, they managed to reach the ninth floor. The best thing about the tower right now was the fact that they could hunt without waiting for weeks for the bosses to spawn. Even on the seventh floor, where the boss spawns when it's a full moon, they only waited for two weeks. Once they set foot on the ninth floor, Ed started looking around for camels to hunt.

"What should we do about the boss on this floor? The guard said that it managed to kill anyone that came to here," Emilia asked out of concern.

"You don't have to worry about that. If things go as planned, we'll be able to leave the tower today, if not, we'll also leave today." Ed reassured Emilia and started walking towards a certain spot on this floor that he remembers clearly.

He finished his camel hunt and only had one thing to do inside of the tower.

"Is that a pyramid?" Emilia asked as she noticed a figure so far away in the distance. Only Ed and some of his monsters knew what was going on as they smiled. Suddenly, the pyramid started moving.
