"Take care, Chad. Master and I will take care of them!"After that, the gates to Peak Institute closed, and wild beast howls could be heard inside.Chad could not care less about it at that point. He activated his Clairvoyant Eye and looked in the direction where Balaro was hiding."Come out! Stop hiding. I know your intentions!"In the car, Dark Phoenix asked, "Can we capture him now?"However, Balaro said, "Capture him? No, I want him to deliver the manuscript himself!"He looked at Matilda, who nodded and stood up. She opened the door before exiting the car and approaching Chad.Dark Phoenix was ecstatic, clearly not expecting Balaro to do that.Balaro said, "People will only speak the truth when they're the most desperate.""Matilda, thank god you're fine!"Chad felt relieved when he saw Matilda despite his confusion about what she was wearing.He quickly realized something was wrong with his Clairvoyant Eye. Matilda's aura was too dazzling.It was impossible for a non-
Balaro looked at the scroll in Chad's hand and sneered, not intending to release the hostage. Chad became very anxious and yelled, "Release her!"Bernard looked at him and said, "Kid, we can't give him the Worldly Medicine manuscript!"Surprisingly, Chad yelled angrily, "I don't need you meddling in my affairs!"Bernard, seeing Chad's desperation to save the hostage, wanted to make a move, regardless of the consequences.However, just as he reached out, Matilda's twin blades clashed with him, sparking another battle.Bernard wanted to retrieve the manuscript quickly and did not fully engage Matilda, so they unexpectedly came to a stalemate.Neither of them could overpower the other, so the deadlock persisted!Chad was concerned about the situation dragging on and only wanted to save Marilyn. He exclaimed, "Let's make a deal. You release her, and I'll give you the manuscript!"However, Balaro simply sneered. He grabbed Marilyn by her hair and lifted her off the ground. The sharp
The God of the Night pierced Matilda's neck pendant, splitting it in half.However, the God of the Night did not move any further. Matilda passed out as the pendant shattered, but her twin blades pierced Marilyn's body!Chad and Balaro rushed over immediately. Chad grabbed Matilda and Marilyn while Balaro dashed straight for the pendant!Marilyn, lying in Chad's arms, tried to say something, "Brother…"Then, she passed out.Chad went crazy, taking out a dozen Cleansing Pills and stuffing them into Marilyn's mouth, "I'm here! I'm here!"Marilyn did not react. Her human aura faded quickly in Chad's Clairvoyant Eye.On the other side, Balaro clutched the pendant and muttered, almost madly, "I'm sorry! I failed to protect you. Don't worry! I'll avenge you! Anyone who has harmed you will pay!"Balaro bit his finger and smeared blood on the shattered pendant, attempting to glue it back together.In an instant, a purple light flashed across the pendant, and it restored itself.Then,
The God of the Night was also known as the Fish Gutter. It was created by a sword master over 2,000 years ago.Inside, there was a space designed for poison storage. The space resembled fish intestines, so it was named Fish Gutter!Later, Fish Gutter fell into the hands of the Mystics, who passed it through several hands before landing in Rowan's possession. Rowan replaced the poison in Fish Gutter with a unique poison known as the God of the Night, hence the blade's new name.For advanced Mystic practitioners, injecting the poison into the skin would inevitably result in ascension. For lower-level practitioners, mild poisoning would result in a regression in cultivation, whereas severe poisoning would render them ordinary people.However, Rowan revealed to Chad before his ascension that the God of the Night had another purpose. In a life-threatening situation, stabbing oneself in the chest with the God of the Night and pressing the mechanism on the handle to release all of its poi
In the end, Balaro's head turned back, and a sinister smile spread across his face as he exclaimed madly, "You're the first person ever to beat me so badly. You're qualified to see my Godly State!"Balaro spread his arms, and a radiant glow surrounded his entire body, visible to the naked eye. What surprised everyone was the appearance of a second immortal crown behind Balaro's head.Chad clenched his fists and glared at Balaro. His nails dug into his skin.After five minutes, Chad had little time left.How could he kill Balaro?Whoosh…Suddenly, a pair of purple butterfly wings appeared behind Balaro, and his hair grew longer."This is my Godly State—the Heavenly Butterfly!"With those words, the butterfly wings behind Balaro fluttered, and he took flight.Swish!Chad only saw a series of afterimages and felt his scalp tighten.Balaro grabbed him by the hair and lifted him tens of meters into the air!"We're about 50 meters up now. Let's see if you'll die from falling!"T
Thick fog rolled down Temple Road, accompanied by distant shouts of people and the clashing of armor and weapons. An ancient army dressed in tattered armor marched onto the street, numbering tens of thousands.The dense fog enveloped everything, rendering faces indistinguishable within ten meters. However, the ancient army remained clearly visible.The tall and strong leader knelt before Chad when the ancient army approached him."Awaiting your command, General!""Command—forge my immortal body with your being!""Yes, sir!"As the tall and sturdy leader spoke, the ancient army that had emerged from the dense fog vanished into black mist.The black, lifelike mist entered Chad's body through his orifices.Crack...Chad's broken spine was restored due to the leader's words; his figure grew taller, and two jet-black eagle-like wings sprouted from his back.Chad's appearance became ferocious and terrifying, resembling a demon from hell. A second immortal crown, black in color, app
Balaro was still alive and kicking. However, the intense pain in Chad's head and the rapidly digesting inheritance prevented him from taking any action. It was as if his mind and body were disconnected!As the dense fog on Temple Road dissipated, Ayo and Shuten approached from a distance. Each carried a sword around their waist, which they drew out when they were about seven to eight meters from Chad.Both took a stance, bending their knees and preparing their swords. The next moment, dust rose from the ground as they vanished from their previous positions.They reappeared next to Chad instantly, one sword thrusting forward and the other slashing backward at him.Clang!Following a metal clang, Bernard grabbed both sword blades with his hands. Blood flowed from his hands, but the two swords absorbed it before it could hit the ground."These are demonic swords!" Bernard exclaimed, shocked. He clenched his teeth and flung the two away.Ayo steadied herself and proudly exclaimed, "
The compass was centered on Peak Institute, and when Balaro reappeared, he stopped five meters away from Chad. A giant hexagram appeared beneath Balaro's feet, trapping him.However, he sneered and pointed his twin swords at the ground. Suddenly, the massive compass vanished!"Damn it!"Meran's voice came from Peak Institute, where two deep cuts on his arms revealed almost all of his bones."Ah!" Seis sighed helplessly as he sat slumped in his grand chair in Cloth Alley, his chest red with blood.At that point, they had both used their final attacks to save Chad, who would decide what happened next.Balaro drew his twin swords and proudly said, "It's over! Third strike—Divine Slayer!"However, Balaro approached Chad gradually, step by step.Crack!Chad's fourth immortal crown on his head shattered as he took the first step.Chad's body changed subtly. The divine skill of immortality had been perfected!Crack!When Balaro got three meters away from Chad, the third immortal c
