"Who told you I'm a stage-six marquis of martial arts?" Chase stared coldly at the figure in front of him as he asked with indifference.Just as the dark figure got cautious, Chase attacked him with another palm attack. He held the Dragon Abyss Sword in his hand and slashed at the throat of the dark figure with a backhand.A bloody gash appeared on the dark figure's throat.The dark figure grabbed his slit throat. He looked like he wanted to say something, but his windpipe had been slashed and he could not say a word.He stared at Chase and fell to the ground."Hmph! You're just a stage-seven marquis of martial arts, yet you're brazen enough to come after me. You deserve death!" Chase said with a cold look at the corpse.Even though the dark figure did not emanate any aura throughout, Chase had assumed that he was a martial lord powerhouse. It was only when the dark figure caught up to Chase that he realized the man was only a stage-seven marquis of martial arts assassin. That wa
He aimed his palm straight at Chase's face.Chase had to react quickly, and he met the attack with his palm as well.True energy flowed between them, and Chase flew backward from the impact of the attack. He crashed through several walls and smashed all the windows of the boxing gym.Another martial lord!Chase was shocked.No one but a martial lord could attack him with such a powerful impact.Chase watched as the entire boxing gym fell into ruins because of their palm attack. Fortunately, it was night and there was no one inside. Even though Fenton was hurt, he was still alive. Chase flew into the sky with a burst of energy."Where do you think you're going?!" Albus flew up as well as he went after Chase.They flew past a high-rise building and went up several miles into the air. That was when Albus sped up and stopped Chase."Don't worry. Bactria has a rule that says powerhouses like us aren't allowed to kill ordinary civilians. I know my boundaries even if you didn't fly u
" I heard that Chase Collins is suspected to be a descendant of the Collinses. Should we…?"A martial lord asked the question."Forget about it. It's just a rumor. Even if it were true, you would risk making an enemy out of the Martial Soul Hall."Another martial lord was cautious about this."You're right. It's the Martial Soul Hall, after all."…In a mysterious location in Capital City, a figure barged into an office."Bad news, sir!"Two old men were in deep discussion inside the office. The tea on their table was still hot. They looked at the man who barged in.One of the old men looked up and picked up the cup on the table. He took a sip of tea before saying, "How many times have I told you not to always act so anxiously, Scott? You have to be calmer."The figure who barged into the room was Scott.Scott regained his composure when he got scolded and said calmly, "Chase Collins is in Capital City, Mr. Cloves. He's fighting with someone in the air!""What? Who is he fi
Chase wondered how to explain this.That was when an aircraft came flying toward them. It got closer to them, and a loud frequency was heard."Fighting is not allowed within the borders of Bactria. Please leave immediately!"It was an unbelievable sight. There was a sea of cultivators standing in the sky while a battle aircraft was at the side trying to stop a fight.Chase was flabbergasted to see such a sight.Albus ignored the aircraft and formed into a shadow remnant once more as he sped toward Chase.Gareth was standing in front of an LCD monitor. It was screening the picture of Albus, Chase, and the cultivators surrounding them. When Albus ignored the warning, he said angrily, "Connect me to the loudspeaker.""Yes, sir!""Stop!"Gareth's elderly voice was heard coming from the aircraft.Albus paused when heard the voice, but he decided to continue his attack on Chase after that. He was the chief hall master of the Martial Soul Hall, and he was using all the true energy
Chase knew that Gareth was just joking. He looked slightly embarrassed and said nothing.Gareth was unperturbed. He turned and pulled a man over to introduce them."This is Scott Langley. I believe it's the first time you're meeting each other."Chase glanced at him. Scott was in a black suit and looked to be a few years older than Chase. Scott looked about 30, but he was already a stage-nine marquis of martial arts. He was one step away from becoming a martial lord.This was Scott. Chase had always thought he was an elderly man, but he turned out to be quite young."Hi, nice to meet you. I hope we'll get along well, Basalt's Collins." Scott reached out his hand.Chase shook his hand when he saw this."Alright. You should tell him what's happening next, Scott. It involves cultivators like you, after all." Gareth walked out after introducing both of them.Chase was curious. Did Gareth ask him here to introduce Scott?He wondered about this.That was when Scott spoke up, "Basal
Fenton quickly came up to Chase and bowed respectfully. He asked worriedly, "Are you alright, Master Collins?""I'm fine. How about you? What are you going to do next?"Chase had to ask because this happened to Fenton because of him."What else can I do? I'll probably continue with my gym after I'm done cleaning up."When Chase saw the look of despair on Fenton's face, he asked, "How about coming to work for me, Fenton?"Fenton became excited when he heard Chase's offer. He quickly said, "I'm definitely willing to work by your side, Master Collins. What do you need me to do?""Very simple. I'm planning to annihilate Heavenly Dragon Clan and put you in their place!"Chase replied with indifference.It was impossible to find out more information about what happened back then from the influential families. After the commotion at the Kaydens' residence, the other families would now be aware of what happened. Hubert had said before that they had similar treasures to the dagger tha
"The Melody Sect has issued the same announcement!""What?"Albus and Roan exclaimed at the same time."The Melody Sect has never cared about the outside world and is almost independent from all the other sects. Why would they make such an announcement too?"They were puzzled."Looks like there's more to him than we thought," Albus said angrily.…Two figures appeared in Capital City's most famous bar. It was a middle-aged man and a younger man. Numerous men and women were dancing in the middle and moving to the rhythm when they entered the bar.Those two men were Chase and Fenton."Where is he?" Chase did not like such places but he had to be there.Even though the music was deafening, they could hear each other very clearly."Over there." Fenton pointed to a private room above where everyone was dancing. Chase could vaguely see many people seated there.They were at the bar because Fenton was taking Chase to meet the local gang leader from the Heavenly Dragon Clan who was
Big Roach stared coldly at Fenton. He was about to fling a bottle right at Fenton.Even though Fenton had guns pointed at him, he was still a martial artist. He suddenly exploded with adrenaline. He grabbed a bottle from the table and broke it. Fenton went forward speedily and pointed the broken bottle at Big Roach.Big Roach quickly evaded the attack."Kill him!" he gave the order.Gunshots were heard all around.They really dared to shoot.Chase gave a wave of his hand at this, and all of the bullets stopped in the air.These gang members on the streets had never seen such a thing before, and all of them were stunned.Fenton took the opportunity to leap forward and take Big Roach hostage."Get them to put their guns down!"Fenton pressed the broken bottle against Big Roach's neck. He pressed it a little hard, causing blood to flow down the bottle.Big Roach had lost all advantage. He was an experienced man and did not panic in this situation. He said to Chase, "Why would s
Ford had always been a carefree person, but today his expression seemed off!"It was such an important match, and you were in the semifinals. How could there be no recording? Ford, don't try to deceive me!" Wren sternly warned Ford."If you deceive me, you'll get a spank—" Before he could finish, Ford covered his mouth. "Father, stop! I'll show you when we get back!"Compared to being spanked, Ford preferred letting his father see his strange cries during the match."Holy Lord Wren, I have a recording of your son's battle with Chase. Would you like it?" an unfamiliar female voice called out."Who's this troublemaking woman? When everyone else remained silent, why did she have to make herself conspicuous?"If I'm humiliated because of this, you'll regret it later, lady!"Ford's mind churned like tumultuous waves. He turned to see it was Tiana, the Saintess of Emerald Lake Holy Land!"I don't recall ever offending you," he thought bitterly.This was problematic. Though he was
Ford naturally would not mention that the fire-element Thousand Eyes and Flowers technique he had blocked earlier was considerably weaker than the current display.This was the art of conversation."That's not even his ultimate move?" Wren asked in surprise."No. He learned this from watching the Saintess Jade from Modest Lady Holy Land during their battle. He simply replaced it with his own fire-system vital energy and fireball technique," Ford answered with some admiration.It was well known that as the most talented Saint since the founding of Sky Dragon Holy Land, Ford typically mastered most techniques on his first attempt.He essentially memorized secret manuals after just one reading and was considered one of the most intelligent and insightful dragons in history.However, even for top-tier techniques like the Thousand Eyes and Flowers, one would certainly need some practice time to master it.Yet Chase had fought Jade just once, and seen her use the technique only once.
Chase stepped forward, standing in midair, and swept his right hand.The fire-element Thousand Eyes and Flowers technique activated, sending countless extreme fireballs like a rain of bullets toward Fallon and his group.The quantity, speed, and power far exceeded his previous attacks, yet Chase only utilized fifty 50% of his vital energy!Fallon's group furrowed their brows, their bodies tense as if facing a formidable enemy. The ancient Nefarious Spirit Giant Ape manifested behind them, crossing its arms in a defensive posture.Fallon's vital energy circulated at extreme speed, pushing its strength to the limit. His normally transparent vital energy shield became faintly visible, like glass emitting light.Carla muttered incantations as wisps of green smoke emerged, with faint green light circling around her body.Seeing this, Tack and Norm understood: Fallon and Carla were not deceiving them but were genuinely using their full strength to counter Chase's attack!The two were
"No way? Chase actually had another trick up his sleeve—he can still win the championship?""Tsk, tsk. Such skill and courage. Now he dares to challenge two city lords and their helpers alone. Those two dressed in red and green were also fighting toe-to-toe with the city lords earlier. This is going to be quite a show!""Damn it, it's like a furnace in here! Everyone, spread out unless you want to become roasted pigs!""Who are you calling a pig?""That's just a metaphor!"...Chase was shocked by his own attack. Yes, he surprised himself.He had only used 50% of his vital energy, intending to intimidate his opponent while testing the strength of this top villain from the nether realm.To others, the wall of fire appeared to rise gradually. In his perception, however, it manifested instantly.The gradual rise was because the power was too great, expanding bit by bit to accommodate more fire eyes.His control seemed fine, so why did it feel like he could not stop?After exami
Carla thought Chase must have an amazing sense of understanding and enlightenment. He was able to see through the essence of the opponent's technique every time he fought and used it. He was a genius.Facing Chase directly made her understand what real intimidation felt like.She was also Chase's target as she was standing next to Fallon.As the top mind and soul cultivator in the nether realm, Carla knew that there was no escape from Chase.Chase would immediately react the moment she made a slight movement.Carla had never felt such pressure before.It was terrifying.Fallon's heart sank when facing Chase.He had been careless.Chase was harder to deal with than Carla, Tack, and Norm combined.Fallon knew how powerful Carla was.The Evil Shadow Sect was good at using the mind and soul in fights, but they were not powerful enough when it came to direct attacks. The Nefarious Deity Sect was good at body refinement, corpse refining, and using Nefarious Deity to strengthen the
Chase watched as Fallon chatted with others and did not answer his question.He was furious with Fallon for ignoring him.Chase immediately used Thousand Eyes and Flowers, which he had learned from Jade. A firewall slowly burned behind him. The eye of the fire kept shooting flames as it slowly gathered more flames.The air around it was like an oven as the temperature shot up continuously."Step back."Chase warned Willow and the others.Willow and Walter were the only ones who knew about his sisters.They took several steps back to avoid the range of Chase's Thousand Eyes and Flowers. Willow and Walter showed Yara and Lisa images of Chase's sisters to explain the situation."These two sisters of Chase are really beautiful. The one in white looks adorable while the one in purple looks so dashing. Tsk, tsk. I had no idea he had such good fortune."Yara praised Olivia and Hanna when he saw their images.Willow and Lisa felt a little jealous. "They're all right."They replied w
They objected to Carla and Fallon's relationship from the very start.Both of them were happy to see them fight.If Carla could break up with Fallon, they might consider forgiving Carla for setting up the Severance Formation against them.After all, it would be good for her if she learned her lesson.Tack and Norm waited to see how Fallon would handle this.Norm knew nothing about this, but Tack was sure of one thing. Chase's sisters were in his hands.Besides them, one of Chase's seven sisters was in the hands of a Supreme Elder from the Nefarious Deity sect.Fallon had been wondering about Chase's sisters when Carla suddenly accused him of this. He could not help sighing quietly.What did he do to deserve this?"Would you believe me if I told you I don't know who his sisters are?" Fallon said bitterly."Believe you? If I'm right about this, Chase Collins is working with Willow because he wants to find his sisters. He already has the Nefarious Deity Sect locked down as the p
At the tournament venue, Chase watched as Yara held Willow's hand while Willow was holding Lisa's hand. All three of them came toward him in a line.He looked at them strangely.Yara had forgotten that she was dressed as a man, and it looked quite striking to be holding two women's hands.The spectators and Yara's die-hard fans burned with jealousy when they saw their ideal man being close to Willow, who should know better. They became agitated as all sorts of speculations crossed their minds. They started to curse at Willow."Who's that slut? How dare she seduce Yara?""Tear her apart right now! Go on! What are you waiting for?""Vixen! She's shameless. How could she be good enough for Yara when she's so ugly?""Tsk, tsk. Could she have drugged him? Why does Yara look excited? There's no way he could be interested in a mediocre woman like her when he's such a gorgeous specimen.""Look at the three of them running toward Chase Collins. Is this some sort of new play? Looks excit
Every powerhouse around them must have tried to sense it and come to the same conclusion as her.None of them dared to act rashly.All the top fighters from the sixth level have gathered there to quietly watch Chase, the Chosen One, enter the Holy Path.However, he told everyone that he was waiting for others.All of them had no choice but to wait with him.The people he was waiting for had finally arrived.Yara appeared hurriedly and entered the tournament ring along with Willow and Lisa."Who's that good-looking man?"Tack asked Fallon.Fallon and Carla looked at each other. He answered in exasperation, "That's Yara Fries, who is actually a woman."Tack and Norm did not believe him. Yara may have exceptional looks and could be viewed as a formidable character, but there was no doubt that he was a man.They exclaimed at the same time, "A woman?" "Yes. Yara possesses the phoenix bloodline. Every time Yara goes through the Rising, he will go through a gender change and his
