Severin's face darkened when he heard what the other party said. He did not expect Frederick to be so narrow-minded."Fortunately, before I came in, I asked our disciples to be as careful as possible and to stay vigilant even towards your Horizon Sect. This way, it should be much better."After Severin thought for a while, he smiled slightly.After hearing this, the man opposite who was a ninth-level saint could not help but roll his eyes, but he still smiled and said, "It seems that your status in your sect is not low, and your cultivation level is not low, right? However, you are unlucky to have bumped into the three of us."Having said this, he paused and continued, "In addition, even if you ask your sect's disciples to be on guard, it will not be of much use. After all, the overall strength of our sect's disciples is definitely still stronger than you, and some of the disciples from your sect may not be wary of our disciples, haha.”After Severin heard this, he could not help
Alas, there were simply too many petals. Even if he managed to remove three or four of them, more would end up attaching to his body."No! Stop it! I surrender! I'm sorry! This is entirely our fault," the level nine saint was so afraid that he begged for mercy."We apologize for what we did! We're your allies! It was just some friendly fire earlier! Please don't let this incident put a dent in the friendship between our sects," the level eight saint begged. He had lost all confidence in retaliating after seeing what had happened.Severin was no fool, and he was not inclined to let those individuals off so easily. With a mere thought, he commanded the petals to explode, reducing the three high-level Horizon Sect disciples to ash in an instant.Severin then waved his hand. The invisible force drew the three spatial rings off the ground and into his palm. After flying up and getting onto his flying sword, he inspected the spiritual herbs contained in their spatial rings."Not bad. Th
"What sort of combat technique is this?" Elsa could not hide her astonishment at the sight of such art. It was the first time she encountered something like that.Her initial shock gave way to relief when she noticed that the rose petals were converging on her assailants rather than coming her way. Someone had come to her aid. The intricate spiritual and sword energy entwined within the elegant rose petals displayed the skill's complexity, and that pointed to one conclusion—the person who executed it must be incredibly strong.Elsa looked in the direction of the rose petals and was overjoyed to see Severin. "Master! Thank goodness, you're here! I thought I'd never see you again."Elsa swiftly dodged her pursuers and flew toward Severin. A tremendous explosion then echoed not far behind her.Although her assailants initially attempted to resist the attack, they soon realized it was futile because they were up against a terrifying force. There was nothing they could do to save themse
After some time, Severin returned with the spatial rings and took some spiritual herbs that he could use for his alchemy. Everything else was handed to Elsa."You're giving these to me?" Elsa was surprised at that.Severin nodded and explained, "I'm sure many of our disciples are already searching for spiritual herbs, so we don't need to do the same as well. It'd be best if you stayed with me for a while. You can help store any treasures that we come across. Just make sure that the spiritual herbs and other stuff are placed into different spatial rings."Elsa's face brightened with contentment. She smiled. "Being with you is the safest option out there."She expressed her anxiety after recalling the events from earlier and said to Severin, "I thought I'd never see you again. My luck was incredibly terrible, and those Highworld Sect disciples had already gathered around me when I entered. My attainment level is still too low, so I was outnumbered and outmatched by them."Severin sm
As soon as Elsa expressed her concerns, she covered her mouth after realizing that her words might upset Severin. She then tried to reassure herself by saying, "Sorry. I hope I haven't jinxed anything. I'm sure they will be safe."Severin replied with a wry smile, "They will be as long as they stay alert. They're able to discern the attainment of any opponent, so that'll go a long way in helping them exercise caution."As he was speaking, he spotted a group of four or five Horizon Sect disciples ahead. He flew over and unleashed a powerful attack of sword energy, taking them out before they could even react.Elsa was taken aback by what he did and questioned him, "Why did you kill them? Aren't they supposed to be our allies?"Severin shot her a stern glance and retorted, "Hurry up and collect their belongings. We should hurry up and move on."Elsa hastened to remove the spatial rings from the fallen disciples. Once she had gathered everything, she got back onto the flying sword an
Unbeknownst to Elsa, Severin had only planned the barbecue to ease their awkwardness that night. If they had nothing to occupy themselves with, it would become incredibly awkward for the two of them. It seemed to have worked, as Elsa thoroughly enjoyed the dinner with Severin.As the night wore on and they had their fill, the atmosphere grew slightly more relaxed. Elsa struggled to find a topic for conversation, and after some consideration, she retrieved her cauldron and decided to do some alchemy while having Severin's guidance. They spent the night doing alchemy until the sun peeked up from the horizon."Let's continue our journey and head that way!" Severin and Elsa left the cave and charted their course after consulting the Soul Compass.Elsa appreciated the compass's handiness. "This is such a gem! Having a clear course of direction will allow us to locate the miniature black tower more efficiently. It's such a useless little tool."Ten minutes in, Severin's expression soured
Rachel's words brought renewed hope to the other two despairing Skyblue Sect disciples. They began giving it their all in their resistance."Elder? Did their elders enter the Paradise Secret Realm too?" The Highworld Sect disciples were immediately taken aback, and many even ceased their attacks for a moment. The thought of confronting a rival sect's elder was an intimidating prospect because those who could become an elder would almost certainly be very strong."Impossible. They must be lying to us. Elders are usually at least royal saints, and most of them will be much higher than just level one or level two royal saint," a Highworld Sect disciple mused. "Unless the elder that they speak of is an alchemist. That is much more reasonable. Most alchemists have lower attainment levels and may only be a level seven or level eight saint, but their ability in alchemy might allow them to be conferred the status of an elder.""Hahahah! Then there's nothing for us to worry about. We might e
Rachel smiled and remarked, "Well, judging from his attacks, he must have become a royal saint already. We can never hope to catch up to him in terms of talent." She was full of admiration for Severin."Thank you for saving us, Elder Severin. We would have been in big trouble if you hadn't shown up!" Several disciples stepped forward to express their gratitude.Severin smiled and said, "The Highworld Sect disciples are utterly despicable. I would have found it less distasteful if they only wanted to rob you of your spiritual herbs. It's sickening that they would try to kill you."He then said to everyone, "Take whatever items you want from their spatial rings. We'll find a place to rest for a bit so all of you can recuperate. Our journey will resume once your injuries have healed. If you meet any of our fellow sect members, remember to tell them that the Highworld Sect isn't our only enemy. The Horizon Sect's disciples must also be regarded as a hostile force.""Are we to consider
