Only I Am A Reader-Novel

A shiver climbed Cheon Chang's back as he heard Leo's Sound Transmission. However, that only made him grip his fist tighter as he came to a decision. With no more mental barriers holding him back, the Absolute Spear shot towards the First Calamity that the Murim had come to face!

Snap!

Lightning crackled as it converged in the sky and descended on the Poison Dragon's wing again. The Black Dragon directly flew out of the scorched gaping hole, flying into Cheon Chang's grasp.

"Ah! The primary target has finally decided to come and join us!"

The Head Abbot smiled with zeal even when he was busy engaging the Sword Sage. While Geochin had framed him for a much larger scheme, his original plan was just to exterminate one or two of the Heavenly Strength Society's supporting pillars!

In the mystical world of Murim, practicing Martial Arts didn't only give one strength, it also represented longevity as one grew closer to nature, and while long age didn't necessarily translate to greater ability, it guaranteed one specific aspect, accumulation!

The Azure Tree's existence and the specific location were things that only the Heavenly Strength Society was accurately aware of. However, thanks to his long life extending over a dozen decades, as well as inheriting his predecessors' accumulation of knowledge, the Head Abbot also came to know of the Society's nurturing treasure!

Although he knew nothing of the location, the timing, or even the identity of the treasure, allying himself with monsters had turned a lot of impossible things possible! With how versatile the creatures that came out of the cracks were, he only had to borrow a mimic's treasure rat to find the location and leave the rest of the questions to the monsters possessing miraculous perception abilities!

Not only was he supposed to get a share for doing almost nothing, but they would also be given the chance to cripple the Heavenly Strength Society's powerhouses that were finally drawn out of their nests, the force that the monsters seemed to be particularly aggressive towards!

"He is pretty angry with you as well… I guess this mission's objective will still be completed."

The Head Abbot put his shriveled palm on the Emerald Calamity's head as he crouched down, things didn't go as smoothly for him, but that didn't make much of a difference! All Martial Artists and foreign visitors were too scared by his gigantic 'support'!

As long as he demolished that crippled geezer, things would go according to plan again! He could still go back and get his fruit, even getting to slaughter all of these useless trash who were lured by the scent of treasure!

"Changyong! You only need to stall this monster until I finish dealing with this shameless monk and we can take him on together!"

Disregarding the fact that they weren't necessarily on the same side, the Sword Sage found assurance in Cheon Chang's appearance next to him. Ever since he managed to comprehend the 'one hand, one sword' concept, he had more than enough confidence to take anyone on as long as it was one on one!

Swish!

However, Cheon Chang didn't pay him any mind as he did what he came forward to do, slashing at the Poison Dragon's recovering wing. Since this monster had tremendous vitality thanks to swallowing four world-level treasures, he had to quickly sap it away!

Swish! Swish! Swish!

It was obvious that anyone would be disadvantaged when battling something of the Poison Dragon's caliber, but that didn't mean that it didn't have any disadvantages of its own. In return for possessing a size that could crush everything in comparison, its speed was relatively slow.

Roaaaar!

The Calamity roared intimidatingly at Cheon Chang's offensive act, its open mouth spewing out heaps of green slimy poison, threatening to dissolve the whole world in revenge!

Cheon Chang reflexively avoided the poison, but that didn't get him completely out of harm's way. The Poison Dragon's speed was only considered slow when compared to top Martial Artists like them, once their movements were impaired by a lack of footing…

Slam!

Cheon Chang's world was covered in dark green as the emerald tail sent him flying!

However, the Absolute Spear wouldn't let himself be swept away like that! As the Black Dragon flew to his support, he swung it in the other direction to redirect the physical force, momentarily pausing midair as he shot back at his enemy!

"Stubborn residue! Why can't you understand that the monsters are the rightful owners in all worlds? Their invasion is something that would come whether you accept it or not! The moment when all worlds come under their rule is nothing but inevitable!"

At the same time, the battle between the Sword Sage and the Head Abbot grew as heated as ever. Compared to the Calamity standing next to them, they seemed like two flies having a territorial quarrel in the air.

"Now!"

The Sword Sage's expression suddenly changed as he called out, ignoring the Head Abbot's nonsense. It was then that…

Swish!

As Pung Chungwon's Violet Bloom shot at the Head Abbot's neck only to be stopped by his diamond staff, another figure shot out from behind the bald monk!

Kacha…

The sound of something tough breaking sounded out as the skin surrounding the Head Abbot's neck cracked, looking no different than a sheet of iron being forcefully cut through!

The Shaolin Temple was well known for its Supreme Diamond Scripture that elevated its practitioners' physical defenses, bringing it infinitely closer to the toughness of diamond itself. However, even stood no chance against the glacial sword that cut through it with little difficulty! Just like the Sword Sage had taken big strides forward, his rival hadn't sat still!

'He is also here?'

Leo was surprised as he continued observing the ongoing battle. The first powerhouse to break his script had finally made an entrance!

"Was I late?"

The large figure that still possessed strands of black hair on his head smiled in satisfaction, swinging his sword to shrug the blood off…
