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
"You…"Rick was rendered speechless. He kept trying to think of a way to escape from danger."What do you want? Do you want to kill me? I'm warning you, do anything rash and the Webers will send even more powerful people to kill you.""Well, you can try me," Chase replied with a casual laugh.He flicked his fingers, and there was a flash of the sword. It stabbed right between Rick's eyes and took his life. "You're just the head steward of the Webers. You're no better than an ant in my eyes. It's just as well that I kill you."Chase turned to leave after that.Everyone in the Weber residence stared dumbfounded at the man leaving. They were silent for a long time and filled with great shock."Yikes…" someone exclaimed after a while."M-Mr. Rick is dead…""Who is that man? Why is he so powerful?""That's a martial lord powerhouse. Even Mr. Rick isn't his match. What could his cultivation level be?""There are many unknown powerhouses in the Weber residence. There must be other
It was not long before two figures came running from deep inside the Weber residence."How dare you?!""Who dares barge into the Weber residence? Give yourself up!"These two men were warriors in armor. There was an intimidating air about them. They were martial lords!They were big and tall, very muscular too. Their auras pressed down on everyone like huge mountains."Hmph!" Chase was unperturbed. He strode forward and formed into a shadow fragment. He traveled hundreds of yards within a blink of an eye.He waved his hand, and a bright red true energy appeared like a burning flame.The flame was like a sword that sliced through the air and slashed one of the warriors. He coughed blood instantly and stumbled backward."Not bad." Chase nodded."What arrogance!" The look on the other warrior's face changed when he saw this. He came attacking Chase with his sword. It swung down hard with great power.Chase did not dodge it. He held the sword by pinching it with two fingers.The
Glock was shocked as he quickly retreated.His powers surpassed Rick's, but compared to the young man in front of him, it was like comparing the light of a firefly to the moonlight. There was no comparison."My sword was refined by the Webers' master blacksmith's mystic technique! Normal warriors can't withstand its blade! Damn it! How did you manage to withhold it?!"Glock clenched his teeth. He was filled with hatred.No wonder that blade was so sharp. Chase was slightly astonished as he could not help being impressed by the Webers' great wealth."Stop struggling," Chase said with a taunting smile. He dealt a punch, and Glock was immediately beaten back. Glock crashed into a wall which crumbled from the impact, and he fell to the ground.Chase did not kill Glock.It was because Chase knew that there was someone powerful behind Glock and that person would not be easy to deal with."Who exactly are you? How dare you create trouble at the Weber residence?!" A pitiful howl co
"I know I'm not your match," Ford said, bowing his head. "So, I willingly admit defeat. But I still want to see the Holy Path with my own eyes. That is why... I'm making this shameless request."His explanation actually made sense.Chase and the others already knew that Sky Dragon Holy Land was founded by the dragons who had ascended from the lower realm. It was not difficult to believe that they had the secret techniques needed to transmit battle footage.It also meant that all the rumors about Chase being a mysterious hidden expert were probably a joke among the major Holy Lands and sects. At least, among those sects that had close ties with Sky Dragon Holy Land, they probably already knew about Chase's true strength.Maybe all the Saints and Saintesses who had shown up at this little tournament in Light Divine City were actually here just to test Chase's abilities.Realizing this, Chase chuckled quietly and said, "Of course, you can come along, Ford. But first, I have to actual
After stepping down from the stage, Chase did not waste any time on unnecessary words.He quickly avoided the crowd of onlookers who acted like crazed fans and returned to the reserved inn room with Willow and the others."Tomorrow, your opponent will be the Saint of Sky Dragon Holy Land, Ford," Walter said excitedly."They say Sky Dragon Holy Land was established by the dragons who ascended from the fifth level. You thrashed the Lightning Dragon back on the fifth level the last time, so this time should be just as easy.""Where'd you get such reliable information?" Willow asked, feeling a little surprised.After all, with Walter's rather fearsome appearance—looking every bit like a bandit—most people would not want anything to do with him."I have dragon blood, remember?" Walter patted his chest proudly."Last time, after absorbing the Poison Dragon's core and a good amount of blood essence, the concentration of my dragon lineage became strong enough to catch Sky Dragon Holy La
On the main stage, Chase watched the sea of runes flying toward him. Suddenly, a spark of understanding struck him.He channeled his vital energy into the right index finger that had fused with the divine bone. Recalling the sword manual techniques, streaks of lightning-infused vital energy shot forth as sword energy.He moved his finger through the air, as if painting across the void. Each stroke unleashed a brilliant sword aura, razor-sharp and unstoppable, shattering everything in its path.Jade's rune barrage was broken apart one by one. Fragments of spiritual light and shattered runes drifted through the air.Every slash of Chase's sword aura was executed with such precision that not a single movement was wasted. The angles and trajectories were so perfect that each attack struck the runes at their most vulnerable points, maximizing impact.Among the spectators, only Carla, Fallon, and Ford—who had just rushed over—could truly appreciate the brilliance of his swordplay.More
"But the Light Divine Pearl is a creation-grade treasure. It's still only at the martial god level. It's far from being fully awakened," Fallon said with a frown.While the two spoke, Jade and Chase had already clashed head-on. Jade had unleashed her Thousand Eyes and Flowers.Countless ancient runes, shining with brilliance, shot out from the light screen behind her. Each rune faintly contained the essence of martial arts, distorting the space as they passed.If one's cultivation was insufficient, one's mind and soul would likely be shaken first, followed by one's body being pierced by the runes.As the rain of runes blasted toward Chase like a raging storm, the spectators below gasped as they were finally witnessing a truly grand spectacle.Willow and the others were awed by the sheer momentum of Jade's ultimate move. Although they knew Chase would not be harmed, they could not help but feel anxious."Can Chase block it?" Lisa asked worriedly while glancing at Willow."My mast
Jade gritted her teeth as she gathered all her vital energy, preparing to unleash her ultimate move. It was the very origin of her title—Thousand Eyes and Flowers.Behind her, a vital energy screen spread open like a peacock fanning its tail.The surface was covered with intricate patterns, resembling the eye-like spots on a peacock's feathers.These patterns were not mere decorations. Each one was an ancient rune, capable of releasing a devastating vital energy attack.When Jade unleashed this move, everyone below gasped in shock."No way, this is just a friendly tournament match. Does Jade really need to go this far?""Should we reinforce the arena's defensive array? I'm afraid someone might get caught in the crossfire.""Tsk, tsk, it's been so long since we last saw Jade lose her temper. She's even more stunning when she is angry!""You're such a pervert. If you get hit by that move, there will not even be a corpse left of you!""You don't understand. There are worse ways t
Inside Universal Holy Land, Clive and his master were facing off against the woman suspected to be the Dark Divine Pearl. Meanwhile, at Light Divine City, Chase's fourth round at the tournament's semifinals had already begun.His opponent was Jade, the Saintess of Modest Lady Holy Land, also known as Thousand Eyes and Flowers.It was already extremely rare for two contestants with such a rare same surname to appear in the same tournament. They belonged to different factions yet both were advancing to the final few rounds. Not to mention, if Yara had revealed his phoenix bloodline and inheritance, he might have very well made it to the finals too.The people with the surname Fries were terrifying beyond words!These were the thoughts running through Chase's head for no particular reason. On the other hand, after Jade saluted, she launched her attack without hesitation.Chase, still a bit distracted, was startled by the ferocity of her strike. Such a name and demeanor, paired with
Skyler spoke proudly.Clive kept having the feeling that something did not seem right when he heard Skyler's words."The Holy Path will only open after winning the tournament championship. Only those selected by the champion can enter. I was already eliminated in the second round…" Clive stammered."Won't you become the champion after killing the current champion? Isn't killing Chase Collins what you want to do?" Skyler was frustrated with Clive.Clive finally realized what felt wrong about all of this."You're not Skyler," he said coldly.The Universal Element Priest had also locked down on Skyler with his vital energy at this point. "Reveal yourself. Who are you? What did you do to Skyler?""Oh? How did you know?" Skyler was taken aback but quickly calmed down and asked the question. "What's wrong with my charisma and appearance?"He looked at his body and clothes while asking the questions with curiosity and calmness. This person had admitted to pretending to be Skyler."Fir
"His will is a blur." Clive sounded helpless when he added, "But it's a will that is extremely frightening and evil."He had the right to this opinion as someone who had faced Klondike directly.When Klondike's will was directed at him, Clive could feel unlimited fear and helplessness. Any second more of facing Klondike might make him lose his mind.He could barely take the energy pumped into him. He only managed to get through it because of his guilt for Rania and his desire to live.The thought of begging Klondike was equivalent to seeing death.There was one reason why he was brave enough to talk about Klondike with the Universal Element Priest and Skyler. It was because Klondike was in a stage of being half awake and half asleep. Clive only dared to discuss Klondike when he was asleep.However, speaking of anything that crossed the line would attract his attention, and Clive was not willing to see that happen.The Universal Element Priest and Skyler glanced at each other. The
Both of those disciples thought they could see Skyler lose his temper, but he reacted calmly. The attempts to fan the situation seemed to have failed. Had they lost credibility with Skyler for their misguided actions?They broke into a cold sweat from fear.Those disciples had offended the previous and current Saints. It looked like they had just made life tougher for themselves.They glanced at each other and gave a long sigh.…Inside Universal Element Palace, Clive had placed Rania down on a training mat while he knelt in front of his master, the Universal Element Priest. "Master, please save Rania North. I'm willing to pay any price without regrets!"He spoke with great determination, and there was a grim look on his face."Silly boy." The Universal Element Priest glanced at Clive and sighed."Rania North seems to have been poisoned by a vicious curse and an extraterritorial poison. I can temporarily save her life, but her face…" He shook his head."I'm grateful enough that
