Cabe could not figure out the symbols even after staring at them for a long time.He waved Aaron over.“I heard that you have some understanding of Bactria’s formations. What formation is this and how do we undo it?!”Aaron had been studying the formation from the moment Chase activated it.He frowned at Cabe’s questioning. He gave it some thought before replying, “This is an Eight Trigrams Formation commonly seen in Bactria, but compared to the normal Eight Trigrams Formation, this particular formation is not used for attacking. "There are a few minor formations hidden within that are used to trap people. Activating any one of them will cause a chain reaction. I’m familiar with a few of them, but some of them have been modified—”“Cut the crap and tell me if you’re able to solve this!” Cabe interrupted Aaron.“I can probably do it if I have a few days,” Aaron replied timidly.“A few days? What’s the point of having you around?!” Cabe was within the formation and had nowhere t
“That’s because you’re pretty weak to me!” Chase replied coldly.“You!” Cabe was in disbelief.That sounded ridiculous to Cabe as they were both marquises of martial arts. How could Chase call him weak?“By the way, I think you don’t know this, so I’d better explain this. I let you land that palm attack on my chest on purpose just to make sure that you wouldn’t realize that I had to add my blood into the formation to activate it. Did you really think someone from a despicable little country like yours could ever beat me?”Chase continued taunting Cabe.“Anyone can brag, Collins. That’s all talk from you. How about fighting each other for real?” Cabe looked murderous as he said furiously.“I know you’re just putting on an act right now because you want me inside the formation,” Chase said nonchalantly.Cabe immediately knew that Chase had seen through him. Anyone who could cultivate into a marquis of martial arts could not be stupid. Cabe decided to forgo the pretense. He stared
Chase walked over and slapped Aaron on the shoulder.“What an impressive Great Eastern Heavenly Master you are. Since you want to acknowledge me as your master so much, I’ll spare your life. Get out and go back to Eastern Ocean!”“Thank you, Collins. Thank you so much. I won’t forget you, Master,” Aaron stood up in relief when he heard this and left hurriedly.Aaron did not dare to leap off into the air for fear that Chase would kill him. He only leaped into the air after running out of the Basalt base.“I’ll make sure you pay back for this a hundred times one day and kneel in front of me for the insult I suffered today, Collins!”Aaron turned back to look at the Basalt base and swore to himself viciously.“Why did you let him off just like that, young man?” Caspian asked in Chase’s mind.“Don’t worry, Caspian. I’ve placed a restrictive mechanism on him. It doesn’t matter how far away he is, I'll be able to control his life and death with it. Only someone who has cultivated the
All three of the Heavenly Kings looked at each other and said nothing.Chase took one look at them and knew that they were probably too focused on cultivating to notice what was going on in Basalt. Otherwise, they would not have such reactions.“Get them both back there. Arrange a meeting once Bolt is back. I have something to say.”Chase vanished from where he was after giving them the order.“The chief instructor is getting more mysterious by the day.”…When Chase appeared again, he was on a street in Camland. There was a phone in his hand, and he was talking to someone on it.No one had any idea that the man who had just killed several Eastern Ocean Heavenly Masters was walking on the street like an ordinary man.“Tell me the truth, sir. What exactly happened with the Four Arms of Bactria?”“I have no idea what exactly happened either, Chase. All I know is that our superiors sent the Green Dragon to Eastern Ocean after you were appointed at Basalt. From what the Green Drag
It was embarrassing to say this, but Chase had accepted two disciples only to leave them be. All he did was give them a book to study a technique and he disappeared. Now that he was in Camland, he had to check on the results of his disciples’ cultivation.“Where did the two of you go today?” Chase asked casually.“We went to help out your wife, Master,” Iris quickly replied before Finn could say anything.“Huh? My wife? When have I gotten myself a wife?” Chase was bewildered.“Oh, I thought you were in a relationship. She told me she was your wife,” Iris quickly explained when she realized Chase was not joking.“Who are you talking about?” Chase asked.“Miss Kollins,” Iris quickly replied.It was Myra. Chase immediately knew that Myra was being cheeky again.“Oh, it’s her. Alright, enough with the chit-chat. Let me check if you've been lazy while I was away from Camland.” Chase changed the topic.However, it only made his disciples sure that there was something between him and
“What are you doing, Myra? What would you do if someone saw the Lady of Camland act this way?” Chase quickly evaded her.“It doesn’t matter. Can’t the Lady of Camland have someone she likes? Can’t she be a little childish in front of him?” Myra continued her attempt to jump into Chase’s arms without a care in the world.“Is that why you told Iris that you’re my wife?” Chase asked with a smile.Myra stopped what she was doing when she heard this and blushed instantly. After all, it was still too early to let his disciples know her as his wife.“Wow, Myra. I can’t believe that you’re feeling shy,” Chase said cheekily.The blushing Myra suddenly stood up straight unexpectedly. “It’s no big deal to tell her I’m your wife. We… We made a promise years before that we'd marry, Chase. Are you going back on this promise?”It was Chase's turn to be embarrassed. It took him a while to say seriously, “Myra, I’ve found our fourth and fifth sisters.”Myra immediately asked more questions when
Agatha had to open the door. If Chase wanted to get in, no one would dare to stop him. In fact, no one could stop him. Agatha thought that Chase was here to give them trouble.“Are you still the head of the Wallaces?” Chase asked but did not explain anything further.“Sterling has become our head since that day. If you’re looking for revenge, come for me. I can still take whatever punishment you give me,” Agatha said to Chase forcefully. She was in front of all the Wallaces and had to maintain her dignity.“Don’t worry. I’m not here for trouble. Get Sterling Wallace out here. Tell him that I’m here to see him!” Chase saw right through Agatha.She wanted to make a show of how righteous she was to make it difficult for Chase to find a cause to attack her. Chase was not here for revenge and was not bothered to explain anything.It was not long before Sterling hurried out.“Greetings to you, Collins of Basalt.” Even though Sterling was younger than Chase, he still knelt on one knee t
A figure appeared high up in the air above South River City. It was Assassin Five, the assassin who had rushed to South River City from Capital City. Assassin Five sensed the area around him and mumbled.“Damn it. He isn’t here either. How did that brat know I was coming? Can he tell the future?”Assassin Five had come over from Chitara. When he heard the news of Chase’s location, he quickly came to South River City but still could not find Chase.“Huh? There’s bloodshed in the suburbs.”Assassin Five was sensitive to bloodshed due to his occupation. There was a flash, and he appeared at the location where Chase had killed the Eastern Ocean Heavenly Masters.“It’s him!”Assassin Five mumbled and followed Chase’s aura as he headed south.…At the foot of Dragon Tiger Mountain, Joverton, Chase did not see Ira and the others.He called Enola’s phone only to find out that Ira had not decided on the exact shooting location. Chase could only find a hotel to check in at Joverton.Wh
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
Chase knew that among all the shadow beasts in the region, these creatures provided the greatest challenge for honing his strength.The more powerful the beast, the stronger its physique, and its blood essence carried immense energy. Consuming it could bring tremendous benefits to a martial god.However, the area where he had just fought was still on the outermost edges of the Forbidden Zone, meaning there were no truly formidable shadow beasts nearby.Another deafening beastly cry shattered the silence, shaking the heavens.A massive shadow loomed over Chase, blocking out the sunlight and forcing him to squint against the darkness.His brows furrowed, and when he looked up, his pupils contracted sharply.A colossal black eagle soared above, its wings flaring like razor-sharp blades, dominating the skies with imperial arrogance.This shadow beast's aura was even more terrifying than that of an ordinary martial god-level beast!It had reached the peak of stage-nine martial god!
"Stay… Stay back!"The white-robed young man was terrified, stumbling backward in panic."What are you all standing there for?! Save me!" He screamed, his voice filled with desperation.Finally snapping out of his daze, the black-robed martial artist lunged at Chase, his palm slicing through the air in a powerful strike. However, he underestimated Chase's strength.With a single impact, the man's entire arm shattered into dust. He let out a miserable scream as his body was sent flying!Chase's attacks were too swift, too fierce. Even with the two of them working together, they could not withstand his power!"Run!"The last remaining martial artist in green robes was so frightened that his soul nearly left his body.He turned to flee without hesitation.Chase chased him down in an instant, delivering a powerful whip-like kick that knocked him unconscious on the spot.Then, he grabbed both lifeless bodies and tossed them into the undergrowth. Only after dealing with them did he
Hearing this, Chase immediately understood the situation. They were trying to rob him!He spread his hands casually. "Oh, that thing? I already ate it."Beside him, Emilia nearly burst out laughing. This guy was too good at bluffing!Chase rolled his eyes. "If you want it so badly, why don't you come take it?""You refuse to cooperate? Fine, I'll make you regret it!" The young man in white robes grew furious, his expression turning ice-cold. "You little bastard! Don't think I'm afraid of you just because you practice martial arts! If you don't hand it over, I'll break your damn legs today!""Oh? Is that so?" Chase grinned, showing his teeth. "In that case, why don't we spar a little?""You're asking for death!" The white-robed young man charged at him, his companion following closely behind.A terrifying surge of spiritual energy exploded outward.Chase narrowed his eyes. With one punch, he sent both of them flying backward with a loud bang!"W-What?! This is peak… martial god
The young woman's face flushed red as she hastily pulled her collar together, her wary gaze locked onto Chase."Are you a body-refining martial artist? Attacking me like that was despicable, shameless, and downright vile! I'll kill you to uphold justice!" she shouted indignantly.Chase let out a helpless chuckle. "Miss, I just saved your life, yet instead of thanking me, you call me despicable?"The woman stiffened, her lips parting as if to argue. In the end, however, she lowered her head and muttered an apology, "I lost my composure. Please forgive me."After saying this, she retrieved a dagger from her robe and handed it to Chase. Her expression seemed sincere."My name is Emilia Larsen. This was left to me by my parents. Consider it my way of repaying you for saving my life. I hope you won't refuse it. This dagger is exceptionally sharp—it can slice through iron like it's mud. Keep it safe and don't lose it.""Oh?" Chase raised an eyebrow as he accepted the dagger, examining
The sword shadow was incomparably sharp, moving at blinding speed.Caught off guard, Chase felt a sharp sting as a cut split open his shoulder, sending blood splattering through the air.Pain shot through him. The attack was so fast that he could not even see who had launched it.At that moment, Chase clasped his hands behind his back, his gaze cold and indifferent. Then, he raised a hand and flicked his fingers.A purple-gold flame ignited!The fire landed directly on the white sword shadow. In an instant, it was engulfed in roaring flames, disintegrating into ashes within seconds!"What?!" A shocked gasp echoed from the darkness.Chase sneered, his figure flickering forward like lightning. With a swift kick, he sent the hidden figure sprawling to the ground."Who are you?" A woman's voice shouted in both fear and disbelief from the darkness."You tried to ambush me?" Chase looked down at her, his expression unreadable."H-How did you know?"The figure gasped, her hands fly
In an instant, Chase transformed into an unrivaled demon lord, his mere gestures capable of shattering the void!One by one, the beasts collapsed, all falling beneath Chase's iron fists. Their bodies were reduced to pulp as they died in pools of blood!"T-This… This is insane! Just two punches and he slaughtered eight Ghost Boar monarchs and a tiger-like creature!"A young martial artist watching from a distance was completely dumbfounded. His jaw was hanging open, and he nearly swallowed his own tongue. He had never seen anything so brutal!These were Ghost Boar monarchs, each as powerful as a ferocious beast, yet not a single one could withstand even a single punch. Their skulls were shattered in an instant, with blood spraying in every direction.Chase was not human. He was like a rampaging beast from an ancient wilderness, overflowing with sheer brutality.In the end, only one Ghost Boar monarch remained, the one whose spine Chase had crushed with a single stomp.It lay dyin
The remaining beasts froze in place, their eyes wide with horror. They simply could not comprehend how a frail-looking human could possess such overwhelming strength. The scene before them shattered their understanding of reality."You fools! What are you standing around for? Get over here!"Chase's thunderous voice echoed, filled with unmatched dominance and ruthlessness.One of the Ghost Boar monarchs let out an enraged howl before charging straight at him.The remaining dozen or so followed close behind, snarling viciously as they stormed forward. To them, Chase was nothing more than prey!"You want to die?" A cold glint flashed in Chase's eyes, his killing intent surging.He said nothing more. His figure vanished in a blur as he shot forward like lightning while his fist swung down with devastating force!The first charging Ghost Boar monarch was sent flying, its body instantly flattening as blood splattered across the ground.Without pausing, Chase stepped forward and smas
Despite his recent breakthrough, Chase's attention was drawn elsewhere. He was more concerned that the corpse of the massive Ghost Boar had been completely devoured!Not just that, but three other Ghost Boar carcasses nearby had also been torn apart, likely taken down by someone else."Since I'm already here in this valley, I might as well take a look."Muttering to himself, Chase's figure flickered, and he rushed down from the hilltop in the next instant.One of the remaining Ghost Boars let out a violent roar the moment Chase appeared.His expression remained calm. With a swift motion, he swung his fist downward.A deep, muffled impact echoed.The Ghost Boar staggered backward with blood seeping from its mouth!Enraged, the Ghost Boar howled and charged straight at Chase, aiming to ram into him with its massive bulk.Chase's eyebrow twitched as he effortlessly dodged aside.Then, in one fluid motion, he leaped onto the boar's back, grabbing a fistful of its bristly mane bef
