At the same time, a powerful aura swept over them. This aura was extremely strong and vast, and it had reached the level of a peak martial arts saint!Spencer's face twisted into a sinister smile. "My grandfather will be here soon. Do you dare to kill me?"After speaking, his expression became even more ferocious.He believed that as long as his grandfather intervened, he would surely suppress Chase and rescue him.Chase still did not respond, continuing to stride toward the main hall of Hawkins Residence.Seeing this, Spencer became even more smug. "Heh, you little brat, you're doomed. My grandfather definitely won't let you off easily."Suddenly, accompanied by the sound of footsteps, an elder in a gray robe strode out from the pavilion ahead. His cold eyes were fixed on Chase."Grandpa, save me!" Upon seeing who it was, Spencer seemed to grasp a lifeline. He started screaming excitedly."You've got some nerve, boy!"Sunny's eyes flashed with a cold light as he stared intent
Sunny furrowed his brows together. He sensed that something was amiss.Chase was so composed that one might even describe him as calm and unhurried."Heh, arrogant and overbearing?" Chase sneered, his gaze sweeping over the experts of the Hawkins family. "You Hawkinses are bullying an ordinary citizen. What do you have to say about that?""An ordinary citizen?"Upon hearing this, Sunny's expression turned grim.He finally realized his mistake. Chase was no ordinary person!How could a commoner dare to cause trouble at Hawkins Residence?Moreover, Chase's attire did not resemble that of a rural villager. He looked more like a scion from a prominent family."I'll ask you one more time. Will you hand over Spencer or not?" Chase's tone was icy, carrying an aggressive edge."We will not!" Sunny gritted his teeth as his eyes filled with rage."Very well. Then I'll fight until you guys hand him over." Chase's figure blurred as he charged toward Sunny."You're courting death!" Sensi
"You little brat, you dare cripple my grandson's navel region?""You Hawkinses are really trash! I'll destroy the Hawkins family today. Who here dares to stop me?" Chase declared as he stood proudly, his eyes were cold and sharp. As he stepped forward like a soaring dragon, he charged at Sunny once again.Just then, Sunny suddenly threw back his head and let out a furious roar. A vast and powerful aura surged from his body."Peak stage-nine martial arts saint!" Chase narrowed his eyes slightly. With a quick thought, he deduced Sunny's cultivation level."Hmph! So, you're a peak stage-nine martial arts saint. That explains your arrogance! But unfortunately for me, a peak stage-nine martial arts saint is still too weak!"Chase then let out a cold laugh. Stomping his foot in mid-air, his body suddenly vanished. When he reappeared, he was already behind Sunny.A crisp sound echoed as Chase's palm struck Sunny's face, sending him flying.Sunny's head tilted three inches to the side,
Chase curled his fingers into a claw and grabbed Sunny's neck, lifting him like a helpless chick. Then, he slapped him across the face. With a smack, another slap followed."You little brat, I'll make you pay today!"Sunny's eyes were bloodshot; he had never imagined he would end up like this. When he once dominated Capital City, who would have thought he would suffer such humiliation today?"Just you wait! One day, I'll take your head!" Sunny roared in fury. His eyes were filled with intense malice.Chase ignored his words, delivering slap after slap to his face. Soon, half of Sunny's face was swollen and bruised."What did you say? Say it again. I didn't catch that," Chase sneered."I said, I'll definitely get my revenge on you!" Sunny gritted his teeth. He hated Chase to the core. He would surely make him pay for this."Haha... Good, very good! I hope you can reach that level soon. Otherwise, I suppose you won't ever be able to avenge yourself."As he spoke, Chase suddenly e
"You little bastard, I'm telling you, I won't just cripple your navel region. I'll dig out your heart, extract the marrow from your body, and turn you into a bag of bones!" Chase's eyes were blood-red, like a fierce demon."I... was wrong. Please... spare... me..." Sunny pleaded weakly, feeling his life force rapidly slipping away.Chase was truly intent on killing now, and Sunny was utterly terrified.However, what awaited him was another kick from Chase. With a loud bang, Sunny was sent flying after several of his ribs were broken. His body collapsed limply on the ground."Haha, you're scared now? What a coward! Weren't you arrogant before? Come on, keep being arrogant! Keep boasting! I love seeing you like this—it's so satisfying!" Chase laughed wildly.He stepped on Sunny's chest with a mocking gleam in his eyes. "So, have you yielded now? If so, kneel down and admit your mistakes. Maybe I'll consider sparing you. How about that?"As he spoke, he bent over and looked down at
In an instant, the once-clear waters began to emit thick smoke.This toxic smoke was extremely potent; anyone who came into contact with it would become dizzy and fall into a deep sleep.Sunny lay on the ground, laughing hysterically toward the sky."You scoundrel!"Chase was furious and seething with rage. Sunny had resorted to releasing poison in a suicidal attack at this critical moment. It was utterly despicable.Although he was unharmed, it had given him quite a scare."Chase..." Nearby, another young Hawkins family member approached hesitantly."What? Are you trying to stop me?" Chase glanced at him."I wouldn't dare, Chase. Please calm down. We're just worried that if you push him too far, causing mutual destruction, it might attract the attention of the Hawkins family's higher-ups. At that point, I'm afraid..." The young man seemed somewhat fearful of Chase.They had come here to eradicate the Hawkins family completely. If they angered the Hawkinses and provoked a larg
"You're asking for it!" Toby sneered.The two exchanged a fierce punch.A visible shockwave spread from where their fists met, sending all the onlooking young family members flying backward. Some even spat blood. This was a battle between martial arts saints!Chase narrowed his eyes slightly. His strength was slightly inferior to the opponent's, but the opponent was clearly not skilled in fist techniques, so this exchange ended in a draw."You've broken through?" Chase's expression darkened.He had not expected that the Hawkinses had been hiding such an old monster!At their peak, the Hawkins family had barely reached the threshold of first-rate powers; their foundation was shallow and unstable. Yet now, it seemed the situation was completely different.Toby's cultivation had reached stage five of martial arts saint, making him one of the top experts even in all of Capital City."As expected of the Hawkinses! That old dog, Toby, is actually this formidable!""Heh, Chase, I adv
In the blink of an eye, the two figures left Hawkins Residence, with one chasing and one fleeing. They appeared on the streets outside. Toby suddenly accelerated, leaping dozens of feet to intercept Chase and block his path."Toby, you cowardly turtle. You finally dare to show yourself?" Chase roared, his eyes blazing with anger.This bastard had been hiding within Hawkins Residence, barely clinging to life. If it were not for his body refinement technique, he would have died long ago!Such humiliation was absolutely intolerable for Toby!"Chase, I admit your talent is high, but you're currently only at stage three of martial arts legend. You're no match for me!" Toby sneered as a mocking smile appeared on his lips. "If you kneel and beg for mercy, I might leave your corpse intact and let you die swiftly.""In your dreams!" Chase let out a cold laugh and threw a punch. His fist force surged like a raging storm, stirring up sand and dust everywhere."You reckless fool!" Toby said
The blade contained powerful sword intent, and it sliced open a horrible wound on the Black Iron Demon Crocodile's belly. Blood gushed out from it.The crocodile roared furiously as it struggled. However, it could not escape as the blade had cut its veins, which immobilized it.Chase exhaled. He went forward and kicked the crocodile's head.A series of crisp cracks were heard before the crocodile ended up in a pool of blood. It was a horrifying sight.It was a martial nirvana beast, and even though it had been seriously hurt, it could still move. Chase did not dare waste any time. He took out some rope he had prepared earlier and wrung it around the crocodile's neck. He dragged it out of the underground palace."This Black Iron Demon Crocodile's body is massive. It must've consumed the blood essence of many human martial artists. I wonder what other surprises it has for me."Chase chuckled as he prepared to leave.However, that was when Chase paused in his footsteps and suddenly
The sinister and moist aura became stronger. Chase could even detect the rotting stench of dead bodies in the aura."Could there be more than one dead body buried in this place?" Chase contemplated this, but it did not bother him too much as victory was the only thing crucial to him.He leaped into the dark. Chase would come to some crossroads along the way, but he chose to keep going straight. The path led him underground.He had stepped into the tunnel for less than 15 minutes when he caught the sound of fighting. It did not come from outside but from below.He was puzzled and quietly snuck over.There was a loud bang, which was followed by the clanging of weapons.A massive dark shadow was on all fours in the middle of the underground palace covered in rubble. It had four limbs and a huge head. It had terrifying teeth and sharp claws while its back was covered with dark scales.It was crouching, and its red eyes looked vicious and violent. It could lunge forward and eat some
"Damn it!"Chase was enraged. He growled while madly absorbing the pure vitality and heaven and earth's spiritual energy from all around him.He sat down with great pain. He put his hands together to guide the vitality to condense it into lightning form.Purple lightning struck suddenly, tearing through the air and wrapping around the golden light.Chase's forehead was covered in sweat, and his entire body stiffened."This thing is tough to deal with. Why is it so hard to absorb it?" Chase clenched his teeth. The golden light contained incredibly powerful energy."I don't believe that you can take this."There was a cold look in Chase's eye. Thick veins throbbed all over him while limitless energy poured from within his body and into his hands. The energy gathered in his arms.The Might of Thunder and Lightning was an extremely powerful attack technique that was unbeatable.Chase was relieved to see the lightning and light vanish. Even though this was a powerful move, it exhau
"It's a voodoo bug!"The look on Chase's face changed. He instantly realized what it was and quickly waved his arms to release a raging wave of strength that caused numerous trees around him to fall.A swarm of green bugs, with each the size of a thumb, emerged in hordes. They were like swarms of locusts that filled up every space in the air.Massive sword flashes instantly sliced through them, and the bugs were crushed to dust. However, Chase had disturbed other ferocious beasts laying low in the forest with this move.In an instant, piercing howls were heard.Various beasts and birds came lunging at him.Chase's expression turned dark. He formed into a shadow fragment as he dodged the attack of these animals.He did not choose to escape because he could sense many wild dark beasts in this area.Chase had to get used to being in battle mode.That was the only way he was able to get into the rhythm of fighting the enemy while slowly training himself to uncover a combat techniq
The Sword Manual was extremely difficult to understand. Chase had spent close to two days on it before he could grasp the surface-level information it contained.He figured that it would take at least one month for him to be able to completely cultivate the first stance. As for the second and third stances, as well as the most powerful killing move, he did not dare to have much hope for now."I wonder if there are valuable medicinal herbs in this mountain range," Chase wondered.A sword flash brushed past suddenly, cutting off a huge chunk of a rock.Chase's eyes widened. He stopped and looked toward somewhere not far off.A dark, green venomous snake that was more than 20 feet long was slithering about, emanating a dangerous aura as it stared at Chase."A venomous dragon python?" A grim look appeared in Chase's eyes.The venomous dragon python was a rare snake-type ferocious beast. It was covered in lethal venom, and even a stage-four martial god would die instantly if he cam
However, Chase was not about to let him get away. He went after Thorn while wielding his sword.The sword's blade sliced Thorn's skin, causing blood to splatter everywhere. He was once again seriously wounded, and the slash on his chest looked horrible.That was a vicious swing of the blade. It had destroyed Thorn's core, and his basic martial arts skills were gone."No! This isn't possible…!" Thorn was chilled to the core. He fell to the ground and was close to death. His eyes were wide with disbelief. He had never expected to lose to a human martial god.This was a great humiliation!"The Black Feather Guards will tear you apart and turn you to dust!" Thorn cursed at Chase with clenched teeth."Exotic races like you are pretty dumb." Chase shook his head. "If I'm killed, your people will die with me. There are many factors to consider in this world. You need to be aware of the consequences."Chase spoke unfeelingly. The next moment, he lifted his leg and kicked Thorn in the th
"Scared? Haha!"Thorn threw back his head and laughed with a condescending look in his eye. "Human martial artists are nothing but ants. You only managed to obtain resources and heritage from what was left behind by your ancestors. It's because of mere inheritances that you think you're superior and know no fear. I'll teach you a lesson today about how weak humans are!"Chase grunted coldly, and the Thunder Sword appeared in his hand. Stepping forward, he lunged for the kill and swung his sword down.Weapons clashed, and sparks flew.Thorn's expression changed as he stumbled back a step. His arm was numb."The sword technique of a human is indeed exquisite. But such an unruly technique can only be used on low-level dark beasts. It won't be able to do anything to me." Thorn put his hands together, and a dark battle spear formed. The spear kept flashing with light like a venomous snake flicking its tongue.He moved quickly and lunged at Chase for the kill.The look in Chase's eye
"You shouldn't have left the sect like that, Chloe. What if the elders punish you?""This is all because of me, Kara. If I didn't leave, you would've gotten into trouble too…""Don't be silly. You're my junior. I can't stand by and watch you die."The women's words caught Chase's attention."Huh? It's them…"He raised an eyebrow, not expecting them to be hiding deep inside the valley.However, Chase quickly realized something, and a glint flashed in his eyes. He quietly said to himself, "They're martial artists too! Even though they're only early-stage martial gods, they possess the Energy of Drago Tiger. They must have taken some spiritual herbs and refined them."These were no ordinary women. They had a powerful background, so it was not unusual for them to possess some treasures. After all, a martial god had a long lifespan. Common herbs that were easily found would not be able to fulfill their needs."I don't care how unhappy you are, reveal yourself right now," Chase said
The lion's massive body flew off into the air.Chase lunged forward. His left hand was curved into a claw as he grabbed the lion's head. He pulled hard with his hand despite having a sword in his right.Blood splattered everywhere.Using sheer strength, he separated the lion's head from its body and flung it to the side.This caught the attention of many dark beasts that were martial gods."Huh? This human martial god looks really powerful. If we can get such a young elite to be our servant, we can make use of him for quite a while."Chase's slaughtering had crossed the line of most of these dark beasts.Powerful demon energy immediately burst from every corner of the valley. It gathered within the valley and formed into a dark chain of demon energy that came falling on Chase like a net to kill him.Chase swung the Purple Lightning Blade. The blade's flash exploded to every corner and destroyed the demon energy.There was a sharp look in Chase's eyes as he noticed something st
