East Meet West

176- Remnant Soul 2

Hearing the ‘Ghost’ women’s answer, Orochi took a deep breath and tried to calm his emotions.

Then he observed the woman that suddenly appeared like a ghost from the Jade crystal.

The women’s body was nothing like a ghost like what was supposed to be blurry or has a transparent body, nor it has any cold aura that can make people piss their pants. The woman looked like a normal human with normal flesh and blood.

She wore a green Saree and a red blouse. She did not tie her hair and left it open. On her head, a crown made of pearls adorned her head like a model. She has shiny black hair which was in contrast with the pearl crown. She was almost 1.9 meters tall, with a good figure.

As for her looks... umm.... since it is an animated woman, then, of course, she has good looks and from her looks, she looks pretty young. About 25-27 years old.

Looking at Orochi who was staring at her as if he has seen a ghost, the woman called ‘Bindu katan’ frowned and said,

“Are you here for the inheritance of my Katan clan?”

Hearing her question, Orochi answered politely,

“Yes, I have read everything written in the above room. And I want to get stronger, so I am ready to pay the price for it.”

Hearing his answer, Bindu snorted and said coldly,

“You haven’t even stepped into the Transformation realm; how can I trust you based on your mere words. Go back, you are not suitable for completing my task.”

Bindu Katan waved her hands, gesturing Orochi to go back.

But Orochi was not willing to obey her, so he said,

“I know that my cultivation is very low and it’s not wrong for you to think that I will fail to avenge your clan. But I must get the inheritance and get stronger because I too have enemies whom I have to kill. And coincidentally, they have also joined the Frozen Palace a few years ago.”

Orochi slowly narrated his story to Bindu Katan and explained his urgent need to get stronger to take revenge.

When Orochi finished speaking, Bindu Katan sighed and said,

“I understand your feelings, but you are really too weak now. And how can I be assured that you will be able to get strong enough to contend against powers like Frozen palace and the Dark Blood cult? How can I be assured that you will not die before you complete the task?”

When Orochi heard this, he felt something wrong but still, he replied,

“When you gave the 2 choices, 95% people who know that they will have to face the Frozen Palace and the Dark blood cult for obtaining the inheritance will choose to reject the second choice because they know their limits and don’t dare to offend those powers.”

“And in that remaining 5%, 3-4% people come under the category of people whose backing is equally powerful to that of these two superpowers. And for them, your inheritance won't be so important and it would just be added to their list of techniques they have learned, so even if those people lose out this inheritance, they won’t feel any loss.”

“Now, only the remaining 1% people are those who have no fear and are willing to do anything to gain strength. And I belong to that 1% people.”

“Yes, I might be very weak, and you are correct to assume that my chances of accomplishing your revenge are simply impossible.”

“But let me ask you- How confident are you that soon some strong person will have the luck of finding this place and that too daring enough to accept your condition?”

“I don’t know how much time has passed since your death, but I can say that after I go out from here, the chance of some suitable candidate finding this cave is as rare as a Pheonix feather. By then I don’t know if the people who took part in the massacre of your clan would be still alive. So, even if you could accomplish your revenge, you will not be satisfied.”

“As for my strength... hehe...”

Orochi laughed strangely, he raised his fist and clenched it tightly. Cracking sounds of bones sounded in the cave,

Crack

Crack

Then he said in a confident tone,

“Although I am still at the peak of Evolver stage, my strength will not lose out to those who have just stepped into the Human stage.”

When Bindu Katan heard Orochi’s words, she felt that his words were reasonable. Finally, in the eyes which were filled with some disappointment, a tinge of interest was generated.

Then Bind Katan chuckled and replied,

“Very well, your words are reasonable. And since you boast about your strength so confidently then let me take a small test. If you could block a few of my attacks, then you will pass the test and can receive the inheritance.”

“Sure”

Orochi replied without hesitation.

“Since you are confident that no one in the Mortal realm can defeat you, I will use a small part of my strength and check the credibility of your words.”

Bindu Katan chuckled while looking at the skinny guy in front of her, who was filled with confidence or... over confidence.

“Alright, brace yourself, this attack will be equal to the attack of someone who has reached Low level of Demi-human stage human.”

Orochi did not reply, he simply nodded. But he already told the system to release 20% of the stats and due to that, his skinny body was filled with explosive power.

Orochi always keeps the ‘Stat locking function’ active to prevent others from detecting the strong fluctuations emitted by his body. And as he faces this test, he unlocked 20% of the stats which is more than enough to fight against a newly promoted Human stage cultivator.

These changes were hidden to the normal naked eyes, but Bindu Katan was a Royalty realm expert, so this sudden small change did not escape her eyes. A small surprise reflected in her eyes.

So, with a smile, she made her first move.

A fist made of Spiritual Qi headed at a rapid speed towards Orochi.

Looking at the incoming attack, Orochi’s eyes did not show any signs of fear, instead, it reflected envy as he always wanted to step into the Transformation realm and summon attack out of thin air. He really envied this ability.

The punch still headed towards Orochi, but he did not block or dodge, when the punch was 2 meters away from him, Orchi raised his fist and simply punched out. He did not use any Qi or martial art in his attack, it was pure punch.

BANG

As Orochi’s punch met Bindu Katan’s attack, it was easily destroyed by his punch.
