"I never said I was going to let you have him." Quinn burst out with a laugh."Then what did you mean?" Bianca asked curiously."You're not the only one who likes Chase. I have six other sisters, and we made a pact since young to all marry Chase."This information astounded Bianca."Seven women sharing a husband? How… How is that possible…" Bianca was shocked and unable to react."It's not impossible, Bianca. Even though you're an ordinary person, you've seen how cultivators are. You should understand that someone like Chase can't be tied down with a common rule of having only one wife."Quinn's explanation shocked Bianca's view of the world.She was right. Master Collins was a legendary man. How could Bianca view him as an ordinary person?Bianca thought this through and finally understood what Quinn meant. She asked with uncertainty, "Do you mean for me to be his lover?"The first thought that came to Bianca was the daytime dramas on television."Haha! I didn't say that, Bi
It had never occurred to Chase that Bianca would say something like this in front of him.Chase was figuring out what to say to reply to Bianca's offer. That was when Bianca came close to him while taking off her clothes piece by piece."You don't need to do this, Miss Cooper." Chase quickly picked up her clothes and put them back on her."Don't you like me, Mr. Collins?" Bianca's face flushed red as she stared at Chase to ask shyly."It's not that. I…""If you don't find me repulsive and my body can help you, I… I'm willing to…"Bianca lowered her head and bit her lips. She did not dare to look into Chase's eyes."I've liked you since the day you appeared at my home, Mr. Collins. I was sad for a long time when you got engaged to Quinn."When I heard you got divorced, I knew it was my chance. Quinn told me she doesn't mind me being with you, so, Chase Collins, I like you. I've liked you for a long time. Do you like me?"Bianca grabbed the hand Chase used to put the clothes bac
After Chase met up with Scott, both of them rushed to the entrance of the secret realm. There was already a crowd there.A few of Capital City's influential families had sent men there, and Chase recognized a few of them. There was Everett Cooper, Kingston Salvatore, and many others. Most of those in the crowd were independent cultivators, although all of them were marquises of martial arts. There was no true master of martial arts present, and everyone looked to be in their 30s.No one reacted when Scott and Chase appeared.Chase had put on the mask that Kingston had given him. It was able to hide him from being sensed by other practitioners, and his face was changed to look common.No one knew who he was except for Kingston, who seemed to recognize Chase. He nodded at Chase while Chase responded covertly.There was peace until the sun began to rise.Four figures suddenly appeared in the sky without warning. Four mysterious men floated mid-air, and the auras on them revealed the
Work together? Chase wanted to laugh. What were they doing waiting only until now to ask everyone to work together?It was probably more than enough that they did not kill each other inside the secret realm.Most of them began to dilly-dally when it was announced that they could enter the secret realm.Chase did not hesitate and was the first to step into the black hole. The four powerhouses had opened the secret realm at the same time. Chase believed that there was nothing to worry about when it was opened in this manner.He felt the world spin around him. When Chase opened his eyes, he was in a whole new world.It was barren and quiet. Sand was flying in the wind, and the sky was about to turn dark. Chase was looking around him when Scott suddenly appeared behind him. It looked like he had come into the black hole right after Chase. Scott gave him a nod, and both of them began to inspect their surroundings.The place was immensely vast and different from every secret realm Chas
Huh?There really was another species?Chase reached out his senses carefully.He looked similar to humans but had sharper ears. He was extremely good-looking, and his clothes looked extravagant. He was surrounded by everyone else, but they were dressed like refugees compared to him. Behind the group of people was a cart that contained a few different types of wild beasts.Chase hid his aura and acted like an ordinary man as he waited at the roadside.It was not long before the group of men came near to Chase. They whispered among each other when they saw him. After a while, one of them who looked like the leader approached Chase to ask some questions. He was speaking in Bactrian."Hey, my friend, what are you doing here? Monsters roam this place at night. You don't look like a powerful person. I'd suggest that you return to your tribe as soon as possible," he advised Chase kindly.This place had a tribal system!Could this place still be stuck in the agricultural era?Chase
It was the same with this tribe. It was rare to see formidable human powerhouses. Tribes without anyone strong watching over them end up serving stronger tribes to gain protection. However, even those who served other tribes had a mix of strong and weak people."I'm impressed, Chase. You're out here hunting with your tribe at such a young age," the man was convinced that Chase was really as ordinary as he looked. He thought that Chase was one of those people who had joined the powerhouses of his tribe to go hunting because he wanted to see the world.Chase went along with him and said, "I have no choice, Becker. My tribe is very small, and we have to do this to feed ourselves." From their conversation, Chase found out his name was Becker Conlay.They chatted all the way, and Chase found out that the people living in this secret realm mainly hunted monsters in the wild. These monsters also fed on humans in turn.The group finally walked through the forest, and Chase saw the biggest
A dark elf was watching him from that big tree. It was the dark elf that Chase had seen, and he was paying attention to everything Chase did. Even though the elf said nothing about Chase coming to this tribe, he was watching Chase covertly.For some reason, he felt his consciousness being suppressed, and his range of sense was half of what he was used to in Bactria. When Chase reached out his consciousness up into the tree, he realized that there was a part of the tree up there that he could not sense at all.This was truly an unusual place.Chase said good night to Becker with a troubled heart. He went to sleep like a normal person. Since he had decided to be an ordinary person here, he had to be convincing even though this place was rich with spiritual energy.It was late after midnight when Chase finally sensed the elf gradually stop watching him. That elf was quite patient. That was when Chase also finally felt relieved.He had some questions for Lucas."Sir, can you try to h
Everyone was slightly relieved to hear that Chase knew this man.However, Becker continued asking, "Are you two really from the same tribe? Did we bump into another one of you so coincidentally?""Yes, what a coincidence, isn't it? It's all thanks to you, Becker. If you hadn't brought me here, I would never have been able to find Rufus," Chase returned to showing off his acting chops."You're my lucky star, Becker. If you hadn't brought me here, I wouldn't have known what to do. Without Rufus protecting me, it'd be difficult for me to go back to my tribe…" Chase kept on explaining how their group had split up during hunting.Chase told this story passionately, and it almost sounded like it was true. Even Chase almost convinced himself of it.In the end, he managed to quell the dark elf's suspicion temporarily, and the elf disappeared into the big tree. Chase knew that they had managed to get through the most difficult part of the night.As Chase and the man he called Rufus had n
"Damn it! I shouldn't have been defeated so quickly even if I hadn't healed from my injury!"The man in black clenched his teeth and narrowed his eyes slightly. He wanted to kill Chase badly and turn him into dust.He thought that if he exerted some power, the bumpkin in front of him would kneel and beg for mercy, but things turned out differently. That bumpkin had actually faced three moves from him without losing and even made him cough up blood."Roar!"The man suddenly shouted, and the air around began to contort. A terrifying wind galed and took Chase with it.After that, the man leaped like an eagle hunting a rabbit and went for the kill. An eerie light black as ink wisped around his right fist as he dealt out a vicious punch. His punch was like a venomous snake leaping out of the hole. It was precise and vicious, and quick as lightning.Chase's eyes widened as he moved half a foot to the side. It was a close call as the lethal blow almost landed on him. He kicked at the ma
This was a huge palace that stood as tall as the mountains. It was glittering and brilliant with various paintings and images hung on the walls. Some were of deities visiting the moon and playing musical instruments, some were of phoenixes flying through the clouds. There were others of dragons roaring and griffins clawing in a dance. They were lifelike and looked real."Where is this?" Chase looked around in a daze.Meanwhile, deep inside the palace, a man in a purple shirt approached Chase.He had a good-looking face and nice features. The man was tall and exuded a strong aura. He was like a deity."W-Who are you?"Chase was flabbergasted. This man intimidated him. Chase felt a heavy pressure above him, which almost suffocated him."Who are you? Why did you barge into the forbidden land of my ancient country?" The man sounded calm. He had a hand behind his back and looked down on Chase when he spoke."Ancient country?" Chase was taken aback at the man's words. Was this the leg
There was a muffled sound, and the leaf turned into dust. The man's palm was unscathed. All he had was some dust on his sleeve."You…" Chase's eyes widened with great fear. He was aware that all that man had to do was blow some air and Chase would be dead for sure."This can't continue. There'll be hope as long as I'm still alive. I have to leave this godforsaken place right now!" Chase made a quick decision. He stood up right away and made a mad dash for the coastline."Die, you lowly ant!"A roar echoed in the air, and Chase's movement slowed. He felt a chill.A massive power came crashing down like the skyline was collapsing. It suppressed everything in all corners and was suffocating.Chase's knees gave out, his bones cracking. He fell kneeling to the ground. His shoulders were trembling, and he was in great pain."I need to run as far as I can!" Chase was filled with great fear. He gave everything he could to channel true energy and ran crazily to the front."Hmph! Trying
The martial artists who survived in the land where light and dark convened were naturally tainted by evil energy. Their physique would gradually transform, slowly making them a better fit in the nether realm.While within the nether realm, martial artists would experience various hallucinations.They would hear spirits crying and wolves howling. Resentment was everywhere, and evil spirits would constantly appear. That place was covered in dark fog, and spirits roamed. Every corner of it was dangerous and had high death rates. Ordinary people would never dare step into this place.Chase had lived on Earth for 20 years. He trained in martial arts and medical skills from a young age and had seen a lot of this world.However, even he felt a chill down his spine after he was one reading the record on the nether realm."No wonder I keep having the feeling of a mysterious movement at the northeast corner of the martial realm. Could the dark energy from the nether realm have seeped throug
"Unfortunately, we chose to stay behind back then. There's no other way. If we aren't able to stop the balance from being destroyed, the martial realm will meet with catastrophe."All three elders looked at each other and sighed.That was when a skinny middle-aged man suddenly pushed the door open and entered. He gave them a fist and palm salute. "Masters, I have something urgent to report."An emerald slip appeared in the man's hand."Oh? Is there news of the influential families of the martial realm?""I can't believe there's news so soon."All three elders were surprised.It had only been 15 minutes since it happened, and there was already news. That was not easy to obtain.All three elders were top powerhouses with strong capabilities. However, they were hopeful that the news was true and reliable. They took the emerald slip and used the divine sense technique to check the news in it."What?!" "The martial realm's Secret Sect has been destroyed?!"All three of them rais
"I understand it now. This is a spiritual stone tablet with a record of a mysterious Soul Refining Technique!"Chase looked delighted.The Soul Refining Technique was used to refine a person's soul and purify the Origin of the Soul."That's really powerful!"Chase opened his eyes and took a sharp breath. "The things left behind by powerhouses of the nether realm are really incredible. Such treasure is highly valuable. Even a small piece of this would be enough for powerhouses to fight over it!"A notion crossed his mind, and a massive soul energy surged. The spiritual tablet was instantly crushed by the soul energy.The spiritual tablet was crushed to dust and recondensed into an emerald slip that floated in the air. It gradually flew toward Chase."Huh? That isn't right."There was a cold look in Chase's eyes. He discovered a thread of a soul energy's fragment inside the emerald slip.A contorted savage phantom shadow shot out of the emerald slip. It came clawing at Chase wit
"My gosh! How is this happening?!" The skeletal old man panicked. His soul energy sensed that heaven and earth's vitality seemed to be attracted by something when it was around Chase, and it flowed directly into Chase.Meanwhile, the brilliant glow of the sun appeared in the air behind Chase. It burned brightly and blinded those who saw it.A massive Divine Red Phoenix appeared and opened up its wings as it flew in the air. It was ferocious and had an air of danger about it."The Divine Red Phoenix?!"The sight of it put fear in the skeletal old man as his eyes widened. "Who exactly are you?!"Chase ignored him. He had formed into a golden-red phoenix and was emanating a terrifying aura in the air."Burning Sky Technique!"The temperature in the cave suddenly hiked up several hundred degrees due to the burning golden sun. Even the cave walls and ground were melted into lava that started to flow like a river.The skeletal old man screamed in pain as his body turned red instantly
Chase moved extremely fast. He appeared in front of the skeletal old man, who was about ten yards away, in an instant.They were fighting in close combat. Their hands and legs hit and kicked each other as protective energy flew about.Several muffled explosions were heard. It was difficult to determine the victor in this fight."You're at the end of your tethers, little bastard! You're about to die! I'm going to refine you and feed your soul to the Phantom Coffin. You'll be vanquished completely and turned into a part of my body."The skeletal old man held back his head and laughed wildly. His wounds were healing at an incredible speed.Chase's performance in this fight had angered him. He no longer cared about hiding his identity."You want to refine me? You're nothing but a ghost. Are you dreaming?" Chase sneered and suddenly lunged forward."Die!" Chase was quick as lightning as he instantly got close to the skeletal old man. He pressed his palm down on the old man's shoulder
A strange air of authority could be felt coming from him."How did this happen?"The skeletal old man's eyes widened, and his heart beat violently. He was trembling.Chase looked just like a demon king.He took a step forward. The earth and sky tremored as cracks appeared on the ground.Chase's physique suddenly expanded exponentially. His skin was bright red, and his bones seemed to be clanging. A strong dark blood energy flooded out from him.Chase waved his arms about crazily. Explosions went off in the air. Every punch he swung was followed by the terrifying sound of an explosion.The surface of the graveyard collapsed from Chase's savage strength.Chase crushed half the skeletal old man's face with one punch, and the old man's body flew off several yards away.Meanwhile, Chase was suffering from backlash because the true energy reserves within his body had erupted. Bloody arrows began shooting out of him."Only a little of my true energy is left!" Chase said sadly.Even
