Vampire System- The Last Mystic Swordsman-Chapter 245 The 10 Great Ancestors

Whoosh!

After a few seconds of darkness, Rex finally saw light again as he seemed to slip from the shadows into an entirely different dimension.

He was standing on solid ground again and beside him was the old man.

Rex did not pay attention to his ancestor though, rather, his attention was drawn away by this exclusive domain. Unlike the other gloomy parts of the inheritance ground, this domain at least seemed presentable.

This was a huge hall that spanned about 10 meters long.

There were no flashy decorations in the hall but the lights were bright, the only things occupying this huge hall where 11 massive statues that were erected at different corners of the hall to form something like a round table formation.

At the front of the statues stood the 11th statue which was clearly more magnificent than the others, and its facial looks resembled someone that Rex knew.

Rex turned to face his ancestor. "Is that you?"

"Yes". Orion Vector smiled. "Welcome to the hall of the 10 Great Ancestors, the true inheritance ground".

"Over the years of our existence, despite being persecuted by the Holmes family and the world, we were still able to survive and produce powerhouses".

"To leave better opportunities for our future generations, apart from creating the system and the hivemind, we also created this".

"Every statue here contains a will of the family's 10 greatest ancestors".

"Of course, over the years, new ancestors that were greater than those of the past emerged and they took the place of the old ancestors after their death".

"Through the statues, they leave a will of their strongest abilities to pass it down to the chosen one whose promise the family will hope on".

Orion smiled again. "Of course, as the greatest ancestor, my statue was also left and is the 11th statue, all my insights on the upgrade mystic ability are there".

"Understanding them is the way for you to make full use of your ability".

The old man pointed at one of the statues the next moment. "You see that bald and muscular ancestor, he is the one you met in the elven kingdom".

"His name is Bam but he preferred people calling him Iron Mike. I believe when you met his will he shamelessly boasted of being the greatest tiajutsu expert of the Vector Family, unfortunately, yes, he is right".

"He has a brash personality but he was one of the finest warriors that ever descended from my bloodline, he had the strength of a beast".

"His greatest ability was the soul rider bike, it is an ability that transcended the master level abilities, it was a myth level ability".

Rex's eyes literally expanded as wide as saucers. 'Damn, and I had the opportunity to train this soul rider since but didn't'.

As if he read his mind, Orion Vector chuckled. "Everyone of you was always this enthusiastic, you'd be humbled after just a day though".

"Ah, others came here before me?"

"Yes, this exclusive chamber was not just made accessible to you. The chosen one was someone we hoped could win against the Holmes, so we put our bet on all our descendants until it finally got to your turn".

"Even in your turn, we're not 100% sure that you can win against the Holmes family. The outcome is never set in stone".

"I would recommend you to access my will inheritance first but you are not yet up to the task. To access the inheritance of the upgrade that I left behind, your mind power needs to be significantly stronger than this".

"Excluding my inheritance, you can easily decide on which of the others you want to take now before leaving but I advise Bam's inheritance".

"You've met him before and already learned some techniques from him, you have a higher chance of benefiting by learning from him now".

Rex kept quiet and looked through all the statues. Only 3 among them were female, the remaining 7 Great Ancestors were all male powerhouses.

He listened to his ancestor's advice. "Where do I access inside the statue?"

"Just go and touch it".

Rex obeyed and walked closer before placing his hand on the statue. As soon as he touched the statue, Rex saw all the statues in the hall disappearing, leaving only Bam's statue which majestically hovered to the middle of the hall. f𝑟𝑒ewe𝚋𝚗૦𝐯e𝘭.c𝗼𝓂

"Finally, another student".

On hearing this familiar voice, Rex shuddered slightly. The next moment, the bald ancestor who he already met sometime ago crawled out of the statue.

Just like the statue, he was a giant so he bent down to look at Rex.

"Yo boy, I feel like I've met you before".

"Yes, in the elven inheritance ground".

"Oh, you met that mother*cker, hahaha, he must have been really polite with his words. I had to finetune that mother*cker to fit that old elf's taste".

"It is a pleasure to learn under you sir…"

"Ok!" Rex barely finished before Bam's powerful voice reverberated through the hall. "Do you know who I am?"

"Yes, you are Bam Vector, the 3rd Vector Elder…"

"Wrong!" He interjected again. "I am Bam, the Soul Rider, get it?"

"Yes sir!" fre𝑒𝘸𝚎𝚋n૦ѵℯl.c𝒐𝘮

"Say it!"

"Bam, the Soul Rider!"

"Good, you're a fast learner. Now run at me and throw everything that you have at me, try your best to defeat me".

"…"

"Don't worry, my strength will be suppressed to the Advanced tier, come".

"…"

Bam!

Rex was left in a daze at how fast his new teacher was proceeding and could not comprehend his order to come at him, words couldn't do it, but this definitely did as one kick to the cheek sent Rex rotating in the skies like a ball.

"Ugh…" When he fell, he coughed blood.

"Good". Bam nodded in satisfaction. "Now come at me".

"With everything I got?" Rex glared at this ancestor of his as he remembered old man Orion's friendly advice. 'Do everything he says or you'll suffer'. He gritted his teeth.

Bam smirked. "Yes, with everything you got".

-----

You have activated Master Level Skill: Ultimate Iron Defense!

You have activated skill: Zone!

You have activated Master Level Sword Skill: Precision Slash!

----

Boom!

Rex exploded with such speed that the floor beneath him cracked.

Since his ancestor already promised to reduce his strength to the Advanced grade, Rex was ready to teach him a lesson to never belittle him anymore.

His eyes were focused and intent on killing as he rapidly closed the distance.

With the first master level skill that he activated, he kept his defense up, with the zone, his concentration was at its highest while with the precision slash skill, he went for the swiftest and deadliest in his arsenal for one attack.

Whoosh!

The sword finally descended with all the extremely sharp sword energy accompanying it. Bam only looked at it once then he smirked.

In a great display of wizardly that Rex could not fathom, this tiajutsu expert twisted his body in such an unnatural angle that the precision slash whose precision never disappointed failed for the first time.

"How…?" Rex was shocked but he did not fail to notice the strange green energy that was surrounding his ancestor's body at this moment.

"You are too f*cking weak!" Bam punched Rex on the chest.

Rex could not scream as he felt all his ribs and upper chest bones shattering like fiber glass, he flew away with speed like a kite.

Boom!
