An off-road vehicle stopped by the roadside outside of Vast Nine Lake.“Miss Norris, we've arrived at Vast Nine Lake." The driver walked to the backseat and opened the car door. After getting out of the car, Quinn looked around in confusion and said gratefully, “Thank you. You may leave now. I'll look for Chase by myself.”“Miss Norris, I think we should stay with you. Mr. Hayes ordered us to ensure your safety at all costs," the driver pleaded. “It’s fine. I appreciate your kindness, but I've already been such a nuisance. I can’t trouble you anymore,” Quinn quickly refused. She started her journey from Rochester and would not know how she could have made it here without these people watching over her.After all, they did not know her and had been very kind to do all this for her. How could she continue to cause them more trouble?“Alright then, Miss Norris. Please be careful.”The driver stopped and did not insist anymore. After that, he turned to get back to the car and dr
The onlookers shook their heads and sighed when they saw Chase's situation. At the same time, they had looks of pity on their faces.Iris said anxiously, “Finn, what should we do?”Even though she disliked Finn, he had helped them capture Shaun, so they were indebted to him.How could she watch Chase die in Tyrone’s hand?However, Finn chuckled bitterly and said, “I can’t do anything. After all, this is the fight of true masters. We’re just amateurs, so we’re nothing to them. There’s nothing we can do.“Even if we mention Basalt, I don’t think Tyrone will be scared.”Iris’ heart sank after hearing that.Meanwhile, Elena and Kevin also looked nervous.Elena looked at Chase above the lake and clasped her fingers together. “Oh, Chase, you can’t lose! Even though we have some misunderstandings, I still hope you’ll win.”“Hahaha!”While everyone was looking at them, Tyrone laughed as he looked at Chase in restraints. “Gosh, Master Collins, this is what you’ll get for offending me.
Tyrone had gone mad after his repeated losses.At this moment, the only thing he wanted to do now was to kill Chase so he could regain his face.“Dragon Thunder Slap!”Tyrone growled and then transported all of his energy to his right palm. Immediately, a blue light appeared in his palm, making it look like he was holding thunder.It seemed that he was attacking Chase with just one slap, but in reality, he had already slapped Chase more than ten times in the blink of an eye. His attacks were all aggressive and as fast as lightning, like thunder and wind in a tumult.“Dragon Thunder Slap? I guess Tyrone’s really anxious now that he’s bringing out all his ultimate moves.”On land, Finn’s pupils contracted, and he said, “Chase has forced Tyrone to such a state, so it doesn’t matter what the outcome of this battle is. Chase has already won.”He took a deep breath and displayed endless passion in his eyes, “After this battle, his name will reverberate through the world. Master Collin
Chase could not stop Tyrone if he decided to seek revenge against these people.Just as he said, Tyrone had to die today.Tyrone did not think Chase would reject him so quickly, so he roared, “Let’s see if you can kill me!”He then punched himself in the chest. While he vomited blood, his body zoomed forward at lightning speed. He was even faster than he was before.“Blood Release Technique?”Chase’s pupils contracted, and he took a step forward. Immediately, a light halo appeared in the void, making it look as if he was stepping on stars as he chased after Tyrone.The Stride of the Nine Heavens was a very advanced technique.“Did Tyrone just escape?”The onlookers looked at each other and could not believe what they saw.“Come, let’s go see!”Finn brought Iris along as they chased after Chase, who was a long way ahead.They had to find out the result of this battle and report it.…More than ten minutes later, Tyrone fell to the ground after Chase punched him. It created
Thankfully, Iris was quick to catch Quinn’s body.She asked, “Finn, who is she?”“No idea.”Finn looked at Quinn and shook his head. “Judging by how nervous she is about Chase, I think she might be his girlfriend.”‘Girlfriend?’ Iris wondered as she looked at Quinn.Ultimately, she had to admit that Quinn was gorgeous, even more than her.However, when she saw Quinn’s hands, she exclaimed, “Look at her hands!”Finn looked over and noticed how mangled Quinn’s fingers were. All of her nails were broken, and some were still bleeding.Finn frowned. “I think she must have crawled here. All of her nails are broken, and her hands are scratched.”Iris said in distress, “Does she want to die? Is Master Collins so important to her?”“Let’s treat her. If not, she might lose both of her hands.”Finn shook his head and took off his shirt, putting it on the ground. Then, he asked Iris to put Quinn down.He then took out the special medicine from Basalt from his first aid kit to start tre
“Is that possible?” Quinn smiled bitterly.The sinkhole seemed bottomless. It might be at least a thousand meters deep. Even a stone would break into pieces after falling in, let alone a human.At this moment, Finn walked over and said, “He might. After all, Master Collins is a true master of martial arts. He’s incomparable to a normal human.”After he said that, Quinn froze, and she lifted her head to look at the two. “Really?”Her eyes lit up with hope again.Iris nodded and continued, “Yes, so don’t be so pessimistic. We’ve called for help and are now waiting for them to arrive.”“When will they arrive?” Quinn asked, crying from happiness.“I have no idea.”Iris said with a troubled look on her face, “However, they will need at least four hours. After all, it’s inconvenient to airlift a lot of the equipment, so they can only walk.”Four hours?Quinn finally felt a glimpse of hope, but it was distinguished again.Four hours was too long. No one knew what could happen in th
Finn carefully sent Quinn down from the side of the sinkhole.Iris was highly nervous.Even though Quinn had the rope around her, she was worried that Finn would also slip and fall.In the end, Quinn disappeared before the two of them.Finn then sat on the ground and sighed as if he had been relieved of a heavy burden. “Let’s hope she can return safely.”He then lifted his head and saw Iris staring blankly into the sinkhole.“What are you thinking?” Finn asked.After Iris returned to her senses, she said, “Finn, is love really that powerful?”Finn was curious why she would ask that.Iris continued, “I must say that seeing Miss Norris touched me a lot.“A frail woman like her came all the way to Vast Nine Lake just to look for Master Collins. When she couldn’t walk anymore, she decided to crawl. She even broke all of her nails.“Even when she knew that Master Collins had fallen into the sinkhole and was unsure whether he was alive or dead, she did not hesitate to go down rega
Aside from that, the temperature was lower, so Quinn was shaking from the cold.She might have given up if it were not for her determination. Quinn bit her dried lips when she felt the debilitating pain and weakness in her body. She was trying to keep herself awake.At the same time, a sense of despair rose in her heart. ‘Is this really it?’ she thought.As her consciousness started drifting, she saw the happy memories she shared with Chase in her mind. Suddenly, she opened her eyes and bit down hard on her lip to try to wake herself up.“Quinn, you can’t give up. He’s still waiting for you.“Have you forgotten your promise?“Have you forgotten that Myra is still bedridden and on the verge of death? She’s waiting for you to take Rocky back to save her life.”Quinn kept telling herself.Another hour passed, and this time, she had only gone down 50 meters.Finally, she saw a tree more than ten meters below her.A small tree that was only the size of her wrist was growing on
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
