Severin chuckled and quipped, "Haha, you have no idea what's coming for you, do you? You're delusional if you think you're going to have your way with her." He clenched his fist, enveloped it with spiritual energy, and darted forward. He reached forward and delivered the punch straight toward Terry."That speed is impressive!" Terry was shocked to see Severin's remarkable speed. He had assumed that his higher attainment level would deter Severin from initiating an attack, but Severin did so anyway. As if that was not startling enough, Severin's decision to use raw strength with only a bit of spiritual energy covering it came as an even bigger surprise to him."Haha, are you using physical strength against me because you lack the appropriate combat techniques? You're making me laugh. A level one royal saint like you can never hope to win against a level two royal saint like me." Terry sneered. In his opinion, Severin's actions were all pointless and futile.The next second, their fis
Terry smiled and glanced at the flying sword on Elsa's feet. He then remarked, "Your flying sword is impressive. It seems to be a ninth-grade spiritual weapon. It'll be mine after I get rid of you though."Severin retorted, "Haha! I was going to say the same thing.""You can't seriously be thinking that you could defeat me, right? I'm pretty sure you must have honed some very strong physical technique that makes you stronger than your apparent attainment level," Terry analyzed. He then continued, "You're doomed as long as I can keep my distance and stop you from using that technique on me."Terry's analysis gave Tamara and Heidi fresh concerns for Severin's safety. They seemed to agree with Terry's analysis too."Reality is often very different from one's imagination." Severin found the situation amusing because Terry had yet to realize Severin's true attainment level. Then again, it should not be too surprising. Terry had made a very commendable achievement in reaching level two r
"Haha, a level three royal saint! Did that come as a surprise for you?" Severin chuckled. A single sentence sufficed to deliver the unexpected revelation that nearly made Terry faint.With the two huge dragons gone, Severin's sword energy continued its power-filled trajectory straight toward Terry."I won't be able to avoid it in time!" Terry swiftly encased himself in a spiritual protective shield and breathed a sigh of relief. Nevertheless, Severin's attack proved devastating as it swiftly ripped through the thin shield. When the slash made contact, a huge gash appeared on Terry's chest. Blood spurted out, and Terry's bones were visible too."No! This can't be happening! I struggled to get to level two royal saint! How did you manage to get to level three?" Terry shook his head repeatedly. His face grew pale as his gaze was fixated on the gruesome wound.Severin took several steps in mid-air and approached Terry swiftly. He smiled and said, "The answer is simple. I'm more talente
Heidi gazed at Severin with growing admiration, for she had never imagined that Severin possessed remarkable combat abilities in addition to a prodigious alchemical talent. It had been just about half a month since they entered the Paradise Secret Realm, yet he had already made a breakthrough to level three royal saint.Tamara joined her in expressing their gratitude. "We are in your debt, Elder Severin. Words enough cannot express just how grateful we are."Severin responded with a smile. "You don't need to be so formal. We are all Skyblue Sect disciples anyway, so it is my duty to help you."With a simple flourish of his hand, he retrieved four fourth-grade high-rank pills. "You may have two each. I can see that your attainment levels are already somewhat stable, so wait a few more days and find a safe location to train before taking these pills. Do your best to make a breakthrough to level two royal saint. Then you won't have anything else to fear in this realm.""Thank you so m
Severin smiled. "That may be, but I'm worried that disciples from other sects might become jealous. I'll have to keep this under wraps if I succeed, and my priority would be to prepare more fifth-grade pills for our sects' saints to become royal saints. It would be best for the level two and level three royal saints to have a breakthrough as well. Having more royal saints would naturally be better because we won't need to fear other sects even if they attempt to cause trouble."Elsa nodded and agreed. "That would allow the overall strength of the sect to experience very significant growth. We no longer have to fear the other sects! The highest-ranked elders and the sect leader's attainment levels would need a bit of catching up though."Severin smiled and acknowledged that fact. "You're right. However, it would still be best not to flaunt our strength even if we do end up having more royal saints. We should keep it as discreet as possible unless we have individuals who are level nine
Elsa lamented, "We might not have any other option in that scenario. Killing them is inevitable. We're going to reach the miniature black tower soon anyway, so let's assess the situation again once we get there. We might even be able to negotiate with them."Severin agreed. "That will do too. Let's have a look first and decide once we have some idea of the situation."A few more minutes passed. Severin and Elsa's both had a sudden change in expression."Run! Hurry up! We're going to get killed!" A group of disciples were fleeing in a panic as a gigantic python hunted them."We're doomed! That spirit beast is at least as powerful as a level one royal saint!" A level eight saint went pale with fright as he glanced back at the creature.Although the giant python was still some distance away, it was only a matter of minutes before they chased up to them."You guys go ahead. I'll hold it off." One of the female disciples tightened her grip on her sword. She stopped and turned to the o
The massive, nearly hundred-meter-long python unleashed a ferocious roar. Its entire body was bathed in a blood-red color, radiating a menacing aura that sent shivers down the spines of those who laid eyes on it. What was even more unsettling was the fact that the spirit beast had attained the level of a level one royal saint, making it one of the most formidable creatures in the secret realm."Soaring Dragon Slash!""Skydragon Fist!"Both Phyllia and Danny employed their strongest technique to launch several powerful strikes. However, their attacks were all nullified when the python let out a thunderous roar."Is it using sonic attacks against us?" Danny's face paled in shock. He could only watch in bewilderment as his and Phyllia's attacks were demolished by the python's sonic roar.Phyllia had an expression of dread as well, for she recognized the very dire situation that they were in. "We're in a pickle right now. I don't think I can withstand the creature's onslaught for more
The giant python was infuriated after being kicked away. It unleashed a thunderous roar and swung its colossal tail toward Severin."Hehe, this'll be the end of you." Severin chuckled. He deftly produced a seventh-grade spiritual sword from his belongings and delivered a slash after infusing the blade with his spiritual energy. The sword energy that Severin produced thus sliced the formidable beast in two, and that was despite the creature's incredibly tough skin.The serpent writhed on the ground for a while before dying motionlessly."Your strength is amazing! The attacks from our fellow disciples had barely managed to land a scratch on the beast, but you killed it in a single slash!" Danny was truly in awe of Severin's strength because it was completely beyond his imagination.Severin smiled and approached them, while Elsa rode the sword over to them."Thank you for saving our lives, sir!" Phyllia and Danny expressed their gratitude with the utmost sincerity.Phyllia rummaged
