Just as Holden turned to look to the side, his expression froze abruptly.There, beneath Chase's feet, the ground had turned into a pool of blood. However, Chase himself stood completely unscathed. There was not even a speck of blood on his clothes, as if it had evaporated into thin air."What?!"Panic finally overtook Holden's face. Ignoring the searing pain from his injured leg, he scrambled to his feet and sprinted away as fast as he could."Trying to run?"Chase's expression remained cold as he took a step forward. With a single punch, a burst of violent power erupted, obliterating everything within a 15-feet radius. The walls of nearby buildings exploded into dust and rubble.A fleeing figure crashed through a window, landing hard on the edge of the street. It was Holden.Now covered in mud and filthy water, he lay sprawled like a broken doll, barely alive. His breath came in ragged gasps as purple-tinted blood trickled from his mouth. It was clear that he was teetering on
A sleek, black luxury car sped into view, roaring as it screeched to a halt. The emblem of the Webers gleamed in gold, and the deafening noise of the engine caught the attention of everyone nearby."That's the Webers' car!""That brat, Holden, actually managed to summon reinforcements!"Seeing the arrival of the Webers' people, the onlookers immediately scattered. After all, the Webers were one of the most powerful families in all of Capital City."Mr. Holden!"The driver leaped out of the car and helped Holden to his feet, standing respectfully by his side. His cold gaze swept across the crowd. He barked, "Get lost!" The crowd dispersed in fear, no one daring to linger a moment longer."What happened, Mr. Holden?" the driver asked."That bastard insulted the Webers and attacked me! Take him down immediately!" Holden pointed at Chase, his voice was filled with fury.The driver's brows furrowed as he turned to Chase. "You're the one who hurt Mr. Holden? Kneel and accept your d
"The Collins family?"Corey looked at Chase coldly. "How dare you challenge the Webers when you only have the power of an ant? I don't care who you have backing you, you're not walking out of here alive! You're about to pay with your life!"A great surge of negative energy exploded from his body. He was like a raging dragon filled with the urge to kill."Martial lords are indeed extraordinary. Not only are they fast, but their auras are especially powerful!"The look in Chase's eyes gradually turned cold.There was a flash, and Corey suddenly appeared in front of Chase. He spread out his palms as he attempted to grab Chase by the throat."Die!"There was a vicious look on his face. He could almost see Chase die pathetically with his throat crushed.The next moment, Chase swung a punch at his attack. A raging force appeared, stopping Corey's attack. Corey flew backward from its impact."What?" There was shock in Corey's eyes. He was in disbelief.He had just experienced great
With a clang, the sword missed again. Chase grabbed the sword's hilt and gave a strong pull.Corey's right hand, which was holding the sword, instantly dislocated. His arm fell limp to this side.His eyes were filled with shock. His sword was a spiritual weapon that weighed at least 300 pounds. An ordinary martial artist would not be able to touch it, much less grab it with one hand. It would be extremely difficult to do something like that.However, this young man was able to do it. It was unbelievable!The sword fell from Corey's hand.A silver needle pierced into the middle of his eyes and sealed his acupoint, which caused him to lose his ability to fight."W-Who are you?! Why are you causing trouble to the Webers?" Corey's voice was trembling. He did not expect this young man to be so powerful. Even a martial lord like Corey could not sustain more than a few moves when fighting him. The gap between them was too obvious!"You're not good enough to know my name," Chase said
"How dare two useless things like you even think of trying to kill me?"Chase burst out laughing. There was a taunting look in his eye."I want you dead!""Attack!"The two masked men in black were enraged. They were both martial lord powerhouses and could sense Chase's cultivation level. However, he had defended himself against the spiritual weapon with his strong physique without getting hurt at all!They exchanged looks and attacked Chase from each side of him.Chase swept a cold glance at both of them with a cool look on his face. "Get lost!"He suddenly stepped forward and opened up the palm of his right hand. He suddenly grabbed at one of the masked men like an eagle grabbing its prey and instantly held him down!Chase flung the masked man out with his right hand. He kicked the other masked man with his right leg.Both martial lord powerhouses were like kites with broken strings. They were flung out several yards and fell hard to the ground. They kept coughing up blood f
"Who's out there?!"There was tight security at the Weber residence, and someone roared out the question sternly. A group of guards quickly ran out with guns aimed at Chase."Open the door," Chase said calmly, but there was a strong authoritative air about him that somehow convinced the guards to open the gates of the Weber residence."Who are you? How dare you barge into the Weber residence? Are you tired of living?" A guard yelled at him while quickly approaching him at the same time."You talk too much."The look in Chase's eyes turned cold as he flicked his fingers. Four or five guards instantly flew backward and crashed into the doors of the Weber residence. They passed out from the impact.As for the remaining guards, they were all shocked by what Chase did, and none of them dared to step forward."I'm going inside." Chase strode forward."Wait. You can't go in without permission."The butler stepped forward to say this with a grim look on his face.This was the Weber r
Chase took a step forward after that. He channeled strength all around him to form a protective energy domain that expanded all around him.The formation was destroyed, and the light disappeared to reveal its true appearance.It was a formation barrier with the Weber residence as its center, covering hundreds of square miles all around!Dozens of figures were hidden within the formation as they displayed various martial arts skills to attack Chase."Hmph!"Chase was calm as he reached his palm up into the air with a forceful push to the void up above.The void shuddered as an invisible energy spread out that weakened the power of the formation barrier. Its power was thinned out.Chase took a step forward and moved in a flash. He was like an unpredictable phantom that evaded all the attacks. He moved quickly toward an elderly man in a black robe and raised his hand. He slapped down at him with the power of a million bolts of lightning.The old man in the black robe gave a muffle
"I'm the head steward of the Webers. How dare you hurt me?!"Rick clenched his teeth and tried to hold back the pain as he repeated, "I'm Rick Weber, the head steward of the Webers. They won't let you get away with this!""Who do you think you are? No one can live if I want them dead!" There was a cold look in Chase's eyes as he slapped Rick so hard that he went into a daze. Chase raised his arm once more and slapped Rick another five or six times."How dare you?!" A roar came from deep inside the residence.It was right at the same time that Chase sensed danger coming from every direction around him. It made his hair stand on end.Several cold flashes appeared as they aimed for Chase's back, chest, throat, knees, thighs, and all other lethal points on his body.Chase instantly released a purple-gold light to shield himself from all these weapons.His body quivered, and true energy channeled into his arm at the same time. He crushed the dagger in his hand into dust.Chase leape
"Listen up! I won't destroy my skills because lowlives like you aren't good enough to be my enemies!""What arrogance!"A powerful negative energy exploded from the young man in black."Don't you know anyone who said that died in the end?"The young man in black waved his hand, and a black saber appeared out of thin air. It glinted with a chilling flash."A precious weapon!"Chase's eyes brightened. He had heard someone talk about the treasure vault of the Nefarious Deity Sect. This weapon seemed to have been taken from there."Die!" the young man roared, and the black saber slashed down the air.A vast sword flash shone with brilliance and came down at Chase like a raging storm that wanted to crush Chase to pieces."You're a mere martial god ant. How dare you act so arrogantly in front of me?"Chase grunted coldly. He swept the red battle spear in his hand across at his opponent.There was a series of explosions that caused tremors everywhere. The sword flash vanished and f
"Let's go!"The bearded man stood up with difficulty while glaring fiercely at Chase. "Mark my words! This grudge between us isn't settled. I won't let you off!"With those words, the group of seven quickly retreated while supporting the bearded man. In the blink of an eye, they disappeared from view.…"Did something happen here?" A while later, the sound of footsteps echoed nearby.Two young men in green robes approached, and as they took in the scene before them, their expressions froze in shock."What's going on here? I can see signs of battle. Could it be that powerful warriors were fighting here?" one of the youths asked, feeling perplexed."Wait, I smell blood! Could it be that someone was killed in a fight here?" the other exclaimed in alarm.Following the scent of blood, the two came across the bodies of several fallen guards lying on the ground. Among them, the bearded man was now barely clinging to life."It's him!"The two youths recognized the bearded man instant
"That's right! Kill him!"The remaining warriors gritted their teeth, their faces twisting with rage as they spread out and surrounded Chase.Although they were wary of Chase's strength, there was not a trace of fear in their expressions."I don't enjoy killing unnecessarily," Chase said calmly as his gaze swept across the group. "If you leave now, I promise not to harm any of you.""Stop wasting your breath!" the bearded man roared. Brandishing a long blade, he charged at Chase. "Kill him! Kill this beast!"In an instant, icy flashes of blade light sliced toward Chase.These attackers, all at the mid-stage of martial god, unleashed their sharpest attacks without hesitation. Each move was deadly and decisive, aiming to give Chase no chance to retaliate.However, Chase simply raised his palm and struck. With each punch, he unleashed an overwhelming force that shattered all the incoming blades of light.The last attacker was blasted into the air, coughing up a mouthful of blood b
'This place must have more monsters. I'll return later to collect them. If other warriors grab the spoils, it'll be a huge loss,' Chase thought to himself.He stood up, his gaze sweeping across the distant warriors. "Scram," he said coldly.At that moment, the sound of rushing wind echoed in the distance. Eight warriors dashed forward at incredible speed, landing near Chase in the blink of an eye.These eight individuals were all martial gods, and among them were two particularly powerful elders who had already reached the mid-stage of martial god.The two leading figures radiated the most imposing aura. One wore a purple crown while the other had a thick beard and piercing, sinister eyes."Where's Lysander? What happened to him?" the bearded man demanded."He's dead," Chase replied indifferently."What?! Who dares to kill him?!" The bearded man erupted in rage, his eyes burning with fury as he glared at Chase.The other warriors were equally shocked. Lysander, an early-stage m
Lysander's body trembled as he gathered all the martial god energy within him, channeling it into his legs. He unleashed a flurry of kicks, each imbued with the force of his energy.At that moment, Lysander appeared like a masterful fighter. His movements were sharp and relentless.Each kick was faster than the last, and every punch carried a force that could shatter mountains as it slammed into the wild tiger's abdomen.The tiger howled in pain as its massive body slid several feet to the side. Its stomach was dented and bleeding profusely.However, Lysander's situation deteriorated rapidly. His body was drenched in blood, and his injuries became critical.The tiger lunged again, its jaws clamping down on Lysander's shoulder with a sickening crunch. Bones shattered, and blood sprayed in all directions, soaking his clothes."Help me!" Lysander cried out desperately."Run! Just run!" shouted the remaining martial artists who had not gotten far.The scene resembled a nightmare, l
The next day, Chase continued his journey.Suddenly, the ground began to tremble violently. In Chase's line of sight, a massive tiger-leopard hybrid came barreling toward him, its enormous paws smashing trees into splinters as it charged forward.This beast was akin to a martial god-level wild tiger, with a hulking frame, fur as tough as iron, and an aura radiating intense negative energy.The wild tiger let out a deafening roar. Its soundwaves reverberated in all directions, shaking the earth and instilling sheer terror in anyone who heard it."Damn it! That beast is back again!" a young martial artist cursed through gritted teeth.His left arm hung limp, shattered, and his chest bore a gruesome gash. He had nearly died from the tiger's earlier attack."Run! If we don't run now, we're dead!"The remaining five or six young martial artists turned and fled in panic.This wild tiger's strength was overwhelmingly powerful. Even elite martial god-level warriors would avoid a direct
The giant ape's massive club swept through the air, creating a terrifying gust that caused the crowns of nearby ancient trees to tremble violently.Meanwhile, Chase executed the techniques of his secret codex with agile movements. His figure flashed like lightning as he dodged the attack with precision.He surged forward without hesitation and delivered a fierce punch directly to the ape's abdomen.This strike was even more powerful than before, twisting the ape's intestines into a mess and splattering blood across the ground.The giant ape howled in anguish, thrashing wildly in an attempt to shake off its pain.Out of the corner of his eye, Chase noticed a crimson serpent coiled nearby. It slithered sinuously, measuring around ten feet long, with a body that released a pungent stench.The snake's cold, piercing gaze was fixed on Chase. It emanated a chilling sense of oppression. Its forked tongue flicked out menacingly as it launched itself at him.Chase's expression hardened.
The massive ape spread its enormous wings that spanned 25 feet in width, creating a dark shadow that blocked out the sunlight like two great black clouds.The ape let out a deafening bellow, a primal roar that resonated with the ferocity of an ancient beast.In an instant, the surrounding area—nearly 300 feet in radius—was swept by fierce winds. Sand whirled through the air, grass was uprooted, and trees swayed violently as their branches rattled and leaves scattered.The air was heavy with a menacing energy."A monster!" Chase muttered, narrowing his eyes as he took a defensive stance.The aura emanating from this creature was suffocating, its strength comparable to that of a martial god at its peak."Perfect! Let this serve as a lesson to all those fools that I'm not someone to be trifled with!"Chase launched himself forward without hesitation, closing the distance with the towering beast.His fist collided with the air, creating a sharp sonic boom that reverberated through
A sharp blade appeared in Chase's hand.This was a spiritual artifact named Azure Edge, forged by a renowned swordsmith after considerable expense and effort.A flash of cold light swept across, instantly felling over a dozen ghostly creatures.They stood no chance against Chase's strikes. Their throats were slit, and their heads separated cleanly from their bodies.A crimson crystal dropped into Chase's palm.It appeared unremarkable at first glance, but it contained a thick, viscous vitality and was more potent than ordinary blood. A faint spiritual essence seemed to pulse within it, emanating an almost sentient energy."Is this a ghost crystal?" Chase's eyes lit up with excitement.He immediately sat down cross-legged, focusing on restoring his depleted vitality.Within his core, his Sea of True Energy roiled and churned. Vitality surged as waves of energy coursed through his bloodstream, refining his muscles and bones."This ghost crystal is incredible. It's allowing my bo
