Strongest Offline Cultivation

Chapter 67



“Bastard, you dare to collude with monsters. You will die at the hands of humans.” The man in the black robe cursed him in a classic manner.

Fu Chen shook his head and said “I’m sorry but I just realized that I can’t die alone. So, I will kill my enemies before they can kill me.”

“Tch! You are just a Foundation Establishment cultivator. You dare brag.” At this moment, his body suddenly burst out into powerful flames. These flames channeled powerful energy through his body.

“Since I am going to die, I will take you down with me.” The man grabbed his arrow and stabbed Fu Chen. But, Fu Chen slammed his hand from the right and forcefully dodge the arrow.

Bang!

He raised his foot and smacked the face of that man. If he had stood up, he could’ve dodged it but while sitting, he didn’t have any chance.

“Damn you!” The man shouted when his face was hit by someone’s foot. He felt humiliated. He instantly condensed a massive amount of energy into his arrow and stabbed forward.

Unfortunately, Fu Chen was using the system. Even though his movements were fast, Fu Chen dodged it and finally took out a sword.

Crack!

At the same time, the man suddenly cracked a stone and released the dark energy. When he found that he couldn’t defeat Fu Chen even after burning his own lifespan, he decided to curse him.

The dark energy struck Fu Chen’s forehead and formed a seal in it. At the same time, Fu Chen’s sword sliced his neck. The blood splattered on his clothes but he didn’t care.

‘Why would hate someone so much just because they befriend monsters?’

Fu Chen asked himself. He didn’t understand the hatred between humans and monsters. It didn’t come from the past. It was something that grew out of the jealousy between the two races.

But, why is this jealousy so strong? He closed his eyes for a moment and thought.

‘If I can become the strongest person, who would be jealous of me? Humans? Monsters? Or both? If I have to choose between humans and monsters, who should I choose?’

At this moment, his heart suddenly clenched. He felt terrible pain.

“Gah!”

The next moment, he even coughed out blood. But, when he did that, he didn’t feel pain but felt relief. His lips curled as he continued to think.

‘Why should I choose? If I become the strongest, who can force me to choose? There is no right or wrong. There is no human side or monster side. If I can become the strongest person, there will be no side to join.’

‘This is my original intention. I didn’t expect I would think of something that will doubt my own original intention. I can’t have such doubts in the future.’

With that being thought, he finally calmed down and put his sword back.

“Are you alright?” Seeing him coughing out blood, Wu Kong felt he got injured. After all, he just used his Eyes to teleport.

Fu Chen shook his head and said “I am fine.”

Although he used his Infinite Eyes, he didn’t damage it. But, he did realize just how much Spiritual Qi he needs to use these eyes.

At least, one-third of his current Spiritual Qi is used just to activate the Instant Shift.

“Fu Chen, what do you think about it?” Chu Yan slowly approached them and asked while seriously looking at Fu Chen.

At first, Fu Chen didn’t understand it. But, he quickly realized and said “Do you want to give up?”

Chu Yan was slightly startled but quickly his mouth formed a smile. He shook his head and said “I won’t. But, this will be a terrible choice.”

“It will be.” Fu Chen continued while looking at the dead man “There will be a lot of blood.”

“Hey, what are you guys trying to say? I don’t understand.” Wu Kong suddenly interrupted with the confusion in his eyes.

“Nothing! Do you want to fight?” Chu Yan shook his head and asked.

“Fight! Yes, I want to fight. Who are we going to fight? Let’s go and find some more to fight.” Wu Kong suddenly raised both of his hands and cheered while running away.

“What happened to him?” Fu Chen looked at Wu Kong’s back and asked with a serious expression.

“Do you remember your last strike against the armored man?” Chu Yan asked.

Fu Chen narrowed his eyes and nodded his head. He does remember it. And, that’s what confused him a lot. Because he wasn’t sure if he had killed the armored man or not.

“You didn’t manage to defeat him.” Chu Yan spoke.

Fu Chen’s eyes turned serious as he asked “So, who defeated him?”

“Him!” Chu Yan looked at Wu Kong and spoke.

“Him? Are you sure? He wasn’t that strong before.” Fu Chen didn’t get it because he was sure that Wu Kong didn’t have the same level of confidence and power when they fought the armored man.

Chu Yan shook his head and said “Yes, he didn’t have that much strength or confidence before but he had a trump card. It was a trump card that he made an oath to never use even if he dies.”

“Then, why did he break it?” Fu Chen asked with slight confusion and nervousness in his eyes.

“Because of you.” Chu Yan said and then shook his head.

“No, not only because of you but also because of me. He wanted to save his friends. At that moment, you and I were greater than the oath in his heart. So, he decided to break it.”

“Friend?” Fu Chen looked at the monkey with confusion. He didn’t expect to be his friend this early. After all, they have just been together for two days before that battle.

If it was now, then he would’ve believed it without doubt but at that time? It felt a little ridiculous.

“For you, it might be confusing. After all, friendship takes time. But, for him, it only took one moment. It was when you decided to risk your life, go through all that suffering to defeat that armored man. That courage, that confidence, and that much sacrifice were enough to encourage him.” Chu Yan spoke.

Fu Chen thought for a while and asked “What about you? What do you feel about me?”

“During that battle, I feel the friendship. I just felt that you are using me and I am being used for benefits. Though I did believe you were a little sincere.” Then, he glanced at the dead man and said.

“But now, I think we are friends. Because you didn’t hesitate even a little to kill a human despite being a human. What about you?”

Hearing his words, Fu Chen bitterly smiled and said “It seems like I am the last one to recognize you two as a friend.”

Chu Yan felt unexpected. He thought Fu Chen had already accepted them as his friends.

“When I was small, I stayed with a group of wolves for a few days. Because I had no wrong intention in my mind, they didn’t kill me instead I played with the little wolves.”

“But, one day, I found that the little wolves and the mother had died. Even the father wolf had lost his eye. Was I afraid to approach them? I was but I still did it. Even though I was a human, and the people who killed his family were humans, he didn’t harm me.”

“Instead he let me stay with him for the entire day. At that moment, I made a goal in my life. I want to make humans and monsters live in peace and harmony. I know this is a foolish idea knowing the current situation but I still want to do it.”

“But, I quickly realized. Without strength, there is nothing we can do. So, I want to be the strongest person. If I can become the strongest person, I will be free to choose my enemy, my friend, and my loved ones.”

“But, now, even without being the strongest one, I realized that I can still choose my enemy, my friend, and my loved ones. So for me, you and Wu Kong are now my friends.”

Hearing his reply, Chu Yan smiled.

“You seemed very lucky. The first friend you made between monsters are the monsters with the most potential. One who has a great chance of awakening his bloodline and one who has already awakened his bloodline from birth.”

At this moment, Fu Chen’s eyes widened. He instantly looked at Wu Kong and asked.

“Wait, you mean he has already awakened the bloodline?”

Chu Yan nodded his head and said “His bloodline is really strong. It is called Golden Battle Ape. We don’t have much information about this race but it is said that all of them are battle maniacs. And, once he activates his bloodline, he loses his consciousness and becomes a tool of destruction.”

“That’s why he made an oath to never activate his bloodline.”
