"White Tiger!" shouted Phoenix and Alexander as they rushed to White Tiger's side.White Tiger had just ascended to the ranks of the semi-Empyreans, and to fall then would make him the briefest of legends in their celestial ranks."Don't worry, he's just run out of steam!" Alexander reassured. "With
The moment he asked, White Tiger and Phoenix leaned in, all ears. Knowing the lay of the land was key to staying alive in those parts.Red Rose, cowed by Alexander's might, did not dare to be anything but straight with him."There's a barrier around the place—I've never been inside. However, the are
That was a lousy move!Atwood felt as if a stampede of frustration was thundering through his mind, but there were things he could not just come out and say."Oh? Not willing to trade even four for one? Seems like their lives aren't worth much to you. Maybe they're not even human to you," said Alexa
Although the three of them unleashed increasingly powerful energy, their attacks fell with the same results. They plotted against each other, remaining vigilant, unwilling to lower their guard easily.'Cunning old foxes!' they cursed inwardly.Atwood noticed that the two people in front of him aimed
Time passed quickly. Black Tortoise finished healing and began studying the barrier."Black Tortoise, do you have confidence in breaking through the barrier?" Alexander asked.He had a method and was 80 percent sure it would work, one that relied on brute force to overcome any obstacle."It's simple
White Tiger returned not long after, noticing the peaceful surroundings and asking, "My lord, I'm back. Did those monkeys try to steal from us?""It's over. If you had come back a bit earlier, you might've seen it," Alexander replied.There had been a prelude with a few probing moves against the mon
Alexander and his companions did not shy away and walked straight ahead, gradually closing the distance between the two groups.Without even a single semi-Empyrean among them, what could they possibly use to stop him?"Kill these Wyverna folks!" shouted a ninja, disappearing and using the surroundin
"Black Maple Master, you rat!"Atwood thundered in fury, uncontrollably releasing a terrifying aura, causing the spirits within him to rampage. He was a kind person pushed to such an extreme by the situation, indicating a significant impact on him.Years ago, Black Maple Master had approached him wi
"Kill!" As Alexander stepped onto the Empyrean Slope, a monstrous wave of killing intent crashed into his mind."Hmph, you think you're the only one fierce?" he muttered coldly, unleashing his own killing intent to counter the assault.He was the Temple Lord Kane, a man who had tread through mountai
At Battleforge Summit, a place where peril lurked at every turn.As the group continued their ascent, they lost a few more members. The ancient battlefield was riddled with deadly traps and poisonous remnants. The pools along the way harbored creatures so aggressive, it was clear they were not of mo
"Ah…" Alexander yawned, waiting patiently. Without a proper map, he would probably take half a day searching for directions. Battleforge Summit, though seemingly small, had a complex terrain.Time was slipping away, and Maxwell and Crimson Wyrm Master finally reached an agreement. The two-meter-wide
Early in the next morning, Maxwell's group of 40—the weakest among them a Lord of War—gathered quietly by the lake at the back of a mountain, somewhere in Shielded Valley. They stood in silence, their expressions grave.Though many had never ventured to Battleforge Summit, they had all heard of its
"Enemy attack!"Brenda sprang to her feet, drawing her sharp blade. Tensions had been high lately, and everyone's nerves were on edge."Perfect timing! I've been waiting to kill him sooner or later!"Alexander's killing intent surged, and his battle spirit ignited.Crimson Wyrm Master was destined t
As soon as Alexander asked the question, a heavy silence fell over the chamber. The three Guardians exchanged uneasy glances, but no one uttered a word."Never mind if you don't want to say anything, I'm just curious," said Alexander, sitting down cross-legged and closing his eyes to heal his wounds
"As you wish!"Crimson Wyrm Master channeled a furious surge of power into his spear, standing firm as he built up his momentum. Having fought to this point, he knew he had to unleash his most devastating attack."Here it comes!"All eyes were locked on the impending clash, each person holding their
"You fool! Don't think you'll be the last one laughing!"The Second and Third Guardians charged forward, joining forces to deflect Crimson Wyrm's relentless assault. Even with their combined strength, they could barely withstand a few moves."Do you really think we're without reinforcements?" roared
"Heh. I wouldn't dare accept your gift!" Maxwell scoffed, his voice steady despite the looming battle. Politeness had no place in this confrontation."Oh, but I'm sure you'll appreciate it," sneered Crimson Wyrm Master, his eyes gleaming with malice as he pointed at Darko, who lay crumpled on the gr
