Chase flung it like a javelin. He aimed the lightning spear right at the black and red dragons coming at him. It looked to everyone like he had just thrown empty air, but the dragons vanished from it.The Two Evils of Hell were stunned. They froze in their positions of releasing the dragons.By the time Ricky looked back at them, they had fallen limp to the ground.It was another instant kill!It was a move that shot through the Two Evils of Hell's Joint Strike Technique and killed them with whatever remaining energy that was left in the move.Chase was very happy with the result. He had used the pure lightning vitality energy gathered from the Dark and Light Emerald Lotus, and it worked very well. The lightning vital energy formed was like the real thing.It had condensed into a lightning spear, and the Might of Thunder and Lightning was purer than before. Its speed and power strengthened tremendously.Willow had told him about the Two Evils of Hell that he killed. If he rememb
Chase decided to show them what true speed was now that he had grasped how to use this new technique of the Might of Thunder and Lightning. He formed an avatar using lightning vital energy while his true form stayed where he was to bait them.Why did Chase not create more avatars?He could create three avatars if he was a martial god.However, he was currently a martial monarch, and his vital energy had greatly decreased, which was why he could only form an avatar. It was more than enough, though.His avatar ran toward Ricky, Barnabas, and Sykes while condensing power to form the lightning spear. He stabbed all of them right in the chest.These actions happened in an instant.Willow and the others gulped fearfully as they watched the Evil Shadow Sect members attack.They cultivated the same technique. When they attacked at the same time, the power and energy released merged into one. It was not a technique that could be unleashed by a martial monarch.Willow and the others woul
Tia, the base's officer, and a few others quietly snuck off when they saw Walter and the others focused on putting together an inventory checklist from the battlefield while Chase carefully inspected his finger and the lightning spear."I'll go after them, Chase!" Cyril shouted at him.He was now a fan of Chase and wanted to leave with him.However, he had not completed the mission given to him by his masters. He decided to stay and finish his mission when he spotted Tia sneaking away."Wait."Chase called out to him and took a Mirage Tiger Dragon Pill from Walter to give to Cyril. "Consider this a thank-you gift for all your help."Even though Cyril had no idea what pill it was, he could still tell its grade as he was the heir to the Miracle Doctor Sect.He recognized the pill as a lower world-grade pill. It was priceless in this world with the limitation of martial monarch.Cyril was touched and tried to reject it. "How could I—""Don't worry about it. Take the pill. You des
Carla was done putting on her clothes while listening to Fallon analyze the situation. She walked over to him and said, "What about the Three Sects of Southsky?"They're from Earth and claim to be the main realm, the original realm. Those sects have been quite active on our territory. Could they be the ones behind this?""The sect leaders from the Three Sects of Southsky are only stage-eight martial gods. According to them, Earth is filled with spiritual energy. That would make cultivating there quite easy. I've exchanged hands with them before. There's nothing special about them besides several interesting moves."Elder Dominic and Elder Ricky are peak martial gods while the Two Evils of Hell are users of the Joint Strike Technique. They were killed at almost the same time. No one can do that unless they're martial dominants or major martial gods, or even cultivators of a higher level."It's not that I look down on those imbeciles. But they might not even achieve that in their nex
Chase smiled after listening to Willow's explanation. "The next time I bump into the Nefarious Deity Sect, I'd need to pay more attention to their dark beasts and zombie puppets.""That's a given. Besides, the Nefarious Deity Sect has the Mystic Nefarious Priest. He's the top Formation Master in the nether realm. He can turn dark beasts and zombie puppets into formations that are just like infantry and cavalry. He's also one of the main reasons why the Nefarious Deity Sect is at the top."Walter knew a little about this and joined in the explanation."Oh, I see." Chase realized that he had never met this main person from the Nefarious Deity Sect. That was why he had a misunderstanding of their abilities. He was about to say more when he heard a sudden commotion.Chase channeled his far sight and spotted a giant python of about 129 feet in length about to lunge at Willow.It seemed to be at the peak of level two.Chase frowned slightly and warned, "Behind you, Willow."Willow was
Why the hell was it purple?What the giant python did not know was that something had happened to it while it was puzzled. It was already affected by Willow's technique, and its reaction began to slow half a beat. The python was not able to evade the purple blade coming down at it.A huge wound was torn on the python's body, and black-colored blood gushed out. It was infuriated by Willow's blade attack. Demon energy began releasing everywhere, and the air was filled with a stench.Willow covered her nose as the world in her eyes began to contort.Had she been poisoned?Willow was alarmed. She started channeling the Detoxification Technique to try and force the python's venom out of her. She coughed up black-colored blood not long after. However, she still felt weak and a little dizzy.This could not continue. Chase would look down at her.Willow forced herself to channel another mystical technique, and her mind cleared up. She channeled the Mystical Shadow Steps.Several Willow
After stepping out, Chase circulated the Light Deity Technique again to dry his body completely."Come on. Hit me with your poison techniques," Chase said, shouting toward Willow and Cyril."You're the one asking for it." Walter and Willow exchanged a glance and smiled.Then, they each activated their respective poison arts.Walter's poison technique could be used separately from his water and fire powers or combined with them. Since Chase had specifically asked for it, he chose to use only the pure poison technique as it would be easier to cleanse. He condensed a green vital energy poison sphere, gathering energy.Willow's poison art originated from the Impermanence Mystical Shadow Technique. It was a type of spiritual poison that could induce hallucinations or drive someone into madness. It was extremely troublesome to deal with. Her poison energy emitted the same violet hue as before."We're launching it!" Willow announced. A violet beam and Walter's green poison orb shot towa
"Why is my luck so terrible?!" Willow could not help but complain to herself.Walter sensed the aura in the air. It was indeed of the flood dragon lineage. Although stronger than the martial arts overlord realm, it still had not reached the martial god level.If only they were outside this place... As a martial god himself, Walter would have been able to crush it effortlessly.If he absorbed its blood essence, even if it did not help him break through to martial dominant, it would purify his own bloodline. The increase in his innate talent and divine abilities would have been very real and substantial.Now, all they could do was rely on Chase. He hoped his master would show his strength and slaughter the creature so that he could consume its blood essence.Their guess was correct. The creature flying overhead was indeed of True Dragon bloodline. Here, it belonged to the so-called 'True Dragon Clan'.Of course, that was a self-proclaimed title. Compared to actual dragons, they sti
Lightning Storm Mode was immediately activated. If they had waited for the Water Domain to be activated, they would never have been able to pass this level.Those outsiders were actually able to gather water spiritual energy when the Water Domain was active. One could only conclude that Chase had massive water attribute talent.The female Poison Dragon was shocked to see this."He has a few tricks up his sleeve. That old, poisonous thing didn't die in vain."She did not sound sad and was even a little sarcastic when talking about her ex-husband. She said to the Lightning Dragon, "The more powerful their water-attribute talents are, the more challenging it is for them later. Should we continue wasting our time watching them?""I think there's something strange about their auras, especially that guy who formed the water spiritual energy vortex. He must be hiding more moves."The Lightning Dragon snuck a pinch on the female Poison Dragon's butt while maintaining a serious look."
At last, Chase understood what Lisa meant.The fourth and fifth levels were connected, and they were aware of each other. The fourth level considered the fifth level to be a higher realm."So, you guys actually have contact with the upper realm?""Yes. They can communicate with us through special arrays and communication artifacts. Usually, only the major families or individuals with great power possess such means," Lisa explained earnestly."I see…"Walter grew curious as well and was just about to ask more. However, before he could speak, the Water Dragons' attack came surging in.The dense water vapor actually made it hard for him, a naturally water-aligned beast, to breathe.He and Lisa, both of the water element, quickly adjusted and began moving as if they were truly at home in this environment. They became like fish in water.Chase did not even need to adjust. His mastery over the water and fire elements had already reached the peak.Though not naturally born of the wat
Walter's fear was largely dispelled by his longing to visit Earth."As my contracted beast, you'll have plenty of chances in the future. For now, the urgent matter is facing this so-called Dragon Clan Trial. Pull yourselves together," Chase reminded them, seeing that both their moods had stabilized."The so-called judgment is to undergo four rounds of challenges from the martyr spirits of the dragon clan to prove your courage and strength. If you fail, then go to hell! Hahaha!"The Lightning Dragon's maniacal laughter echoed throughout the arena.Only then did the three notice that three dragons had appeared at the center of the battlefield. Judging by the auras they emitted, they appeared to be Water Dragons."This is the first trial—Water Dragon," Lisa finally found an opening to speak and gave an explanation."Water Dragons? Aren't they from the same branch as you? You mean they'll still go all out on you?"Walter looked at Lisa, his face full of question marks."These trial
Even though Chase possessed cultivation comparable to this so-called ruler of the world, the Lightning Dragon, he was baffled. How had he been brought into this arena without noticing a thing?He simply could not figure it out."Master, I feel like I was pulled into this space by force. If they want to, can't they just kill us at will?" Walter, whose nerves were a bit tougher, managed to recover some clarity. He quickly arrived at the same conclusion as Chase.The fact that the four of them had been transported here without any resistance from their end left him shaken to the core.Willow, also recovering from her initial shock, heard Walter's question and immediately sensed the danger."What should we do?" she asked, panic creeping into her voice."There's no need to panic just yet," Chase said with a light chuckle."Why not?" Walter and Willow asked in unison."Have you noticed something? Every level created by the Light Divine Pearl so far has been incomplete," Chase explain
The three of them gave Chase a grateful look."Self-defense? Who defends themselves like that?"The middle-aged man, whom Lisa had referred to as a Lightning Dragon, seemed extremely displeased with how Chase had dispersed his oppressive aura.At the same time, he was clearly surprised. After all, the dragons were a legendary superior race. They naturally suppressed the bloodlines of most other beings.Yet the young man standing before him, who appeared quite ordinary, had actually withstood his draconic pressure. He was not from just any dragon clan either.In terms of pure power, the Lightning Dragons were unquestionably the strongest branch. On top of that, he was the Dragon King of this world, the ruler of the realm. He was supported by the fortune and energy of the entire world.Years of dominance had cultivated not only overwhelming dragon might but also the imposing presence and authority of a king. Ordinary cultivators could not hope to contend with him.Who was this you
Walter also carried dragon blood, so when he saw all that glimmering gold, he became a little reluctant to move forward."Could this be a trap?" Willow asked with suspicion.As a woman, she liked shiny things too, but she still kept her rationality at the moment."We'll just deal with the problems as they come. What's there to be afraid of?" Walter said carelessly.Lisa had been silent ever since entering. After all, this was her enemy's stronghold. Her grudges and reasoning were still very much alive."They're coming," Chase suddenly said.Walter, Willow, and Lisa all looked forward.It was a grand hall designed to resemble a noble's reception chamber. A well-dressed middle-aged couple descended the stairs slowly from the center.Did Lisa not say the Poison Dragon family only had three members? The father and son had been killed by them, so only the female Poison Dragon should remain.Who was this middle-aged man?Chase and the others turned to Lisa with puzzled looks. Lisa
"So if our comprehension is weak, we won't be able to learn it?" Walter frowned as he asked.He had always possessed a strong talent in water techniques and genuinely liked this technique. Hearing Lisa say it required exceptional comprehension discouraged him a little."Not necessarily. If I guide you through it step by step and you keep practicing, you'll be able to learn it. But your mastery level, teleportation distance, and stealth will vary."Lisa was very patient in explaining. She also kept glancing at Chase from time to time."I see. That's a relief." Willow and Walter both let out a breath of relief.This was a powerful life-saving technique, and they did not want to miss the opportunity to learn it. Plus, both of them practiced water-type techniques, so it was a good choice for focused training.They immediately followed Lisa's instructions and began learning.Meanwhile, Chase kept watch nearby in case that female Poison Dragon came looking for them.…Three days l
Chase followed through on his end of the bargain and handed Lisa the entire lotus pod of the Water and Fire Emerald Lotus. If this had happened earlier, Willow and Walter definitely would have called Chase a reckless spender.However, after seeing Chase's massive fields of Water and Fire Emerald Lotus and Dark and Light Emerald Lotus, they let it go.Lisa held the lotus pod, peeled off one of the seeds, held it up, and asked, "Do I just eat it like this?""Mhm."All three of them nodded in unison.Lisa gathered her courage and swallowed it. A surge of incomparably pure water and fire energies rushed through her meridians.Yes—vital energy, not spiritual energy. It saved her a lot of time refining it.Her energy steadily began to rise.As a Water Dragon, she had always been best suited to water-type techniques. However, because of the need for dark-light balance and her inability to find matching light spiritual energy, she had been stuck at stage-nine martial monarch for years.
Chase smiled as he comforted Willow.'Is blood essence really that easy to obtain? Could these people at least show some respect for us dragons?' Lisa was on the verge of breaking down as she watched Chase casually mention borrowing the dragons' blood essence as if it were no big deal.Blood essence only formed naturally in the smallest amounts each year.If used for cultivation, even just a little bit would represent decades—maybe even a hundred years—of a dragon's effort.That meant all those years of training would be wasted.Personally, Lisa did not mind as much.Chase and his group had essentially saved her life. Giving up a little blood essence was no big deal. However, the other dragons would not be so easy to convince.Also, what was that thing Chase mentioned, the 'Dark and Light Emerald Lotus'? It sounded powerful."Um, what's that Dark and Light Emerald Lotus? Is it something amazing?" She leaned over and asked Willow in a hushed voice.Only then did Willow remember
