Stuck in a Chinese novel

[Skill: Destroyer]

[Destroyer (SS)]

[Description: Matching the nature of the user, it was nigh time a skill that matched his traits was granted

For an invader, something that destroys more quickly and efficiently is the right choice]

[Effect: Everything in the immediate vicinity of the user upon skill activation loses its life force]

[Warning: The skill does not differentiate between friend or foe]

[Mastery: Beginner]

[As the mastery increases, it is possible to evolve the skill to something favorable to the user]

[Cost: 10,000 Death Qi]

Wei Jun was tempted to use his mastery cards to level up the destroyer skill, but he had something else in mind for those. As for the current skill, he was more wondering about its effects. Since the skill requirements were quite specific about discernment of a friend or foe, Wei Jun had to pull all of his allies back and keep them away from him.

But he hadn't expected everyone on the opposite side to ignore them outright and focus on him. Wei Jun was internally proud of that.

As soon as everyone was in the vicinity, Wei Jun activated the skill.

[Death Qi -10,000]

[Due to the usage of the Death Qi, the skill effect has been enhanced]

A wave emitted from Wei Jun, a very calm shockwave, one that didn't seem like it could push anyone back even an inch, let alone a step. Yet...

"Garh---"

Screams were erased in the middle as the mouths of the ones screaming turned into nothingness. It wasn't simple ash or disintegration. It was as if they were erased by a very powerful eraser that not even the speck of their existence was left behind.

And it wasn't just focused on the people around him. Every rock, speck of sand, or anything that could have had a life force inside of them, such as the very ground itself, turned to nothingness.

His clothes included.

Of course, not everyone was affected by the skill. The high-ranking knights only took half of the damage to their overall health, while some of the lower-level ones managed to survive, though many turned pale and almost shriveled as if they had aged a hundred years.

Wei Jun quickly turned to the others, but they were at a safe distance. Since the description didn't specify the skill range, Wei Jun didn't know how farther they needed to move, but now that he had used it once, he estimated the range to be about ten meters around him, give or take a few inches.

All movements stopped. It wasn't just the knights that stopped; the mages far away on the castle walls stopped as well. The spells of the mages that were about to fall on Wei Jun were pulverized as well, leaving nothing behind, not even a trace of mana, let alone a speck of dust.

All movements stopped because they didn't know when Wei Jun might end up using that overpowered skill, but they were unaware of one simple fact.

Wei Jun was a living being as well.

Wei Jun would have been overjoyed to use that skill had he suddenly not felt weakness overcome him.

[HP -400]

Wei Jun also sustained damage using that skill. That was why he was so worried about those behind him. If he had lost almost half of his health, he couldn't imagine what would have happened to them.

Wei Jun's health slowly began to regenerate, but he didn't wait for himself to fully heal. He jumped at the chance that the knights were weakened and on guard right now.

Bang!!!

The already dry and barren ground underneath his feet opened as Wei Jun moved at his full speed, arriving before the knight he had injured before. The knight managed to raise his hands to protect himself, but...

Cleave...

[Diamond Will has been equipped]

[Effect(s):

#1: All Qi-based attacks are enhanced by 10%

#2: Each strike after ten hits would deal ten times the damage

#3: Every fifteenth attack of the enemy would be nullified

#4: The user's base attack and defense +10%]

The sudden appearance of a blade in Wei Jun's hands was not accounted for by the defense that was put up. Not to mention the thin layer of death Qi on the blade.

[Death veil]

A layer of death so thin that it couldn't even be seen but it was enough to negate almost major defenses of the knight so when the sharp blade with special effects paired with Wei Jun's power and the thin curtain of death that sought to swallow every other supernatural power, the deadly combo cleaved through the knight with his armor and body alike.

[You have slain an eighth-star aura warrior]

[Death hungrily swallows his existence]

[Death Qi +11831]

Wei Jun didn't wait for a single second more, but so did his enemies. As soon as he made his move, they made theirs, attacking him with all their might, but it was useless. Wei Jun was too strong for any of them, and they were too weakened to put up a fight against Wei Jun.

That was why the second aura knight only had three strikes from Wei Jun, while the third one managed to survive for four more before he also succumbed to Wei Jun's eighth movement of the sword.

All the while, Wei Jun had to expand the [Death Veil] around him to negate the magic spells that were falling on him. Now that he was taking care of the knights, the others were free to divert the attention of the mages.

So, Natasha and Mark Wilson began to cast their strongest spells with the shortest cooldown and began to attack the castle. They didn't care that their spells were too low in intensity. The goal was to thwart their attacks on Wei Jun, and it seemed to have helped Wei Jun immensely because even with the presence of the [Death Veil], he was having a hard time stopping the spells.

Not to mention [Death Veil] sucked the Death Qi out of him at a very fast pace.

So even with an enormous amount of Qi, Wei Jun was having a hard time putting up an extended [Death Veil] for such a long time.

Any kind of assistance, as long as they didn't get too close, was welcome, and Wei Jun was more than happy with his current pace. With the threats of the mages lifted by almost half, Wei Jun was relieved quite a bit.

The part he was most happy about was the fact that with the death of the high-ranking aura masters, fear had begun to take hold in the hearts of the lower-ranking knights. With the added fact of the skill that could turn them to nothing any time, the fear amplified to the point of disharmony between their formation and that caused chaos to ensue.

And with that...

[Title: Monarch of Chaos]

Wei Jun felt as if, with discord, his breath became calmer. As if he were being energized. His fatigue was slowly washing away, and his stamina was recovering at a great pace.

And, the second effect of the title soon took hold as well as panic began to set in the hearts and movements of his enemies. They began to fear for their lives, making more and more mistakes as he got closer and closer to them.

[All physical stats +10]

[All physical stats +35]

[All physical stats +88]

As panic was setting in and chaos ensued, Wei Jun began to feel powerful and fresher with each passing second. Soon, it got to the point that his stats point had increased by 200, and he was as fresh as someone who had slept for a century.

[Maximum limit of the title effects has been attained]

[No further increase possible]

'No further increase needed.' Wei Jun gleefully replied as knights began to run away from the battlefield in fear of him. His very gaze that tore their souls apart scared them beyond the point of just fear.

Once he set his eyes on them, their fear would only result in one reality...

Death.

Like a reaper on the battlefield, each time his blade was swung, scores of knights fell and he kept on moving until the very moment became that he stood in the middle of a pile of corpses, all those around him dead, bloodied from head to toe, and without clothes of course and that somehow only served to enhance the terror of the scene.

[A set of armor has been equipped]

Wei Jun purchased a suit like armor and equipped it.

He brushed his hair slicked with blood back and looked at the castle with his bloodied eyes that had not a speck of his own blood in them.

Looking at the terrified mages who couldn't even move, Wei Jun smirked and took a step forward, marking their end as well, until...

Tham!!!!!

Until he was thrown away like a toy far away from where he stood, thudding on the ground like a rock on water until he finally came to a stop...

'Ow...'
