Monarch of Darkness

Chapter 128: Killing intent rises to heaven



"Aunty", Alice called out happily after seeing Olivia.

"Good morning, mother. Good morning, great grand uncle", Evan also greeted Olivia.

Alice looked at the great grand uncle of Evan with her clear beady eyes. The old man noticed her gaze and smiled at her.

"Big sis, how have you been since you leave? Is Evan giving you trouble?", Olivia asked Brianna with a smile.

"You two girls can catch up later. Let's go to the ancestral hall first", the great grand uncle of Evan said with a smile.

A road paved with simple black stones came to the view of Evan. The space on the top of the mountain was narrow and the stone path was built in the middle of the space.

They walked for a while and an ancient looking palace came to their view. It was built on the mountain by clearing out a portion of it. There was a simple spear carved on the top of the palace and to Evan's surprise, it was different from the symbol of their Jackson family.

Suddenly, Evan felt powerful soul senses on him. He scanned the surrounding but couldn't find out the source of the soul senses. The great grand uncle of the Evan chuckled after noticing the uneasiness of Evan.

"Relax, little brat. It is your other ancestors who are curious about you", the great grand uncle of Evan spoke with a comforting tone.

"Ok, now go on. You have to enter the ancestral hall alone. No one except the descendant of our clan can enter the ancestral hall", the great grand uncle of Evan spoke.

Evan nodded his head and walked towards the ancient looking palace alone. There was a faint glow appeared on the palace as the simple looking doors opened up on their own.

"Girls, kneel down and pay respect to the ancestors", the great grand uncle of Evan spoke with a solemn voice. He kneeled down himself and bowed towards the ancient looking palace. Brianna and Olivia followed after him and pay their respect to the ancestors of Jackson family. Alice didn't kneel down but she also bowed towards the ancient looking palace.

"Ok girls, you can rise up now. Others couldn't come out for now. Otherwise they would be glad to meet all of you", the great grand uncle of Evan spoke after standing up.

His gaze fell upon the ancient looking palace where Evan had gone. "I wonder which inheritance he will receive. He is a talented yet ambitious young man. I hope he will receive something more powerful than us".

"Grandpa, are other grandpas hiding inside the mountain?", a voice interrupted his thought process. He shifted his gaze to Alice who was looking curiously at him.

"Little girl, you are indeed strange. You have even found out about this", the old man chuckled.

"But you have to keep it secret. Can you do it?", the old man looked at Alice.

"Yes, I will keep it secret", Alice nodded her head.

"Little girl, where are you from?", the great grand uncle of Evan asked Alice. He had a curious expression on his face as he looked at Alice. What took him into surprise was the fact that noone could see through her cultivation.

What the great grand uncle of Evan didn't know that noone could see through the cultivation of Evan also. But he had learned a trick to mask the peculiarity. He leaked a trace of his cultivation and he managed to fool everyone that they can see through his cultivation.

A vast hall came into the view of Evan after he entered the ancient looking palace. There was no lavish decorings inside the hall but there were ancient looking symbols painted all over the halls. There were also some strange paintings hung upon the walls of the hall.

Evan could feel a strang pressure coming from the hall itself. He scanned the entire hall and his gaze attracted towards the end of the hall where weapons were inserted into the floor. There were various types of weapons kept inside and as he scanned the weapons, a peculiar feeling rose inside his mind. It was if the weapons had a presence of their own. Evan had never felt such presence from other weapons.

He scanned the weapons one by one. Every weapon was distinct and each had an different aura about them. Some weapons made him felt sorrow and some weapon managed to lit the fire of fury within him. He didn't notice how his deep feelings gradually laid bare to the surrounding.

The scenes of past kept flashing inside his mind and the strange symbols inside the hall lit up one by one. Evan returned to the day when he watched the slaughter of those close to him. The entire Burning moon kingdom was burning and wailing and screaming sounds coming from time to time. A desolate looking figure came to his mind who fought an army of powerful warriors by himself.

"Wrrahhhh....", Evan roared out as tear drops poured out from his eyes. The strange hall brought out his deepest emotion to the surface. Suddenly he felt power flowing to him as he felt all powerful.

A whisper to take revenge reveberated inside his mind. His mind gradually taken over by rage and bloodlust as he rushed inside the battlefield. He picked up a weapon from a fallen devil and a crazy slaughter unfolded in the battlefield.

A dreary aura surrounded him as slaughter aura of all fallen warriors gathered around him. His dark eyes had no emotion as he kept cutting warriors one by one.

Killing intent started to pour out from his body as Evan engrossed in slaughtering inside his mind. He didn't know how much he had killed but his bloodlust grew with every passing seconds.

Many weapons started to glow in the hall as they started to exude the killing aura hidden inside them. Swords started to flow towards Evan one by one as Evan kept slaughtering his enemies.

Killing aura leaked out from the ancient hall as a shocked expression appeared in the eyes of Olivia and Brianna. Even the old man who had an amiable expression on his face, felt deeply shocked by the thick killing intent pouring out from the ancestral hall.

"Just what is going on!", he exclaimed with a shocked expression.
