Chapter 791

Author: Shrimp in Trouble Waters
"Is that so? Hal, your information is always so reliable. I'm really benefiting from it," Chase said.

"Not at all, but I do hope you'll share any news about the person in the portrait with me as well," Hal replied. Although his words sounded casual, his expression clearly conveyed that he expected some valuable information in return for what he had provided.

Hearing that, Chase responded, "Of course, of course."

Their conversation was pleasant overall, and when Chase took his leave, Hal even walked him downstairs.

After leaving Hal's inn, Chase went to the tavern he frequented. He looked for a secluded spot, removed his disguise, and reverted to his true self before heading back home.

On his way back to the small house, Chase continued to ponder how he could fake his own death to infiltrate Shadow Pavilion.

Upon seeing Chase's dilemma, Lucas offered a suggestion, "Find a corpse and destroy the face. That should do the trick."

"But will the fake really pass as me?" Chase was int

    "Yes, sir. Please go ahead and absorb it," Chase said. He then sat down cross-legged, patiently waiting for Lucas to provide feedback.Within half an hour, Chase suddenly felt a surge of heat within his body. He remained calm, knowing that this was the result of Lucas digesting the divine crystal.He guided the heat flow to circulate through his body once. As he began the second circulation, the heat flow diminished until it completely disappeared. It was now fully absorbed by Chase.However, when Chase checked internally, he found that his cultivation level hadn't increased at all. He released his aura entirely in disbelief, confirming that there was indeed no change. Puzzled by this, he retracted his aura again.In that brief moment, many people in the city sensed his aura. Several individuals rushed out of their rooms, but as the aura quickly vanished, they could only look around in confusion and give up.Among those who noticed were Hal from the inn, Toledo from the shop, an

    After breakfast, Harold and his wife felt that Chase seemed more genuine. Previously, he had been so calm and composed, almost unnaturally so for someone his age.Once Wanda led Rania away from the table, Chase returned to his usual demeanor. It was not that Chase had feelings for Rania or anything, but he naturally had a soft spot for gentle and fragile women."Chase, my young friend, why don't you settle down in Eagle City instead of wandering around? We have everything you could need here," Harold suggested with a hint of meaning in his tone."A man's ambition should know no bounds, Lord Scanlon. Please don't make light of such things," Chase understood immediately and changed the subject.Reluctantly, Chase asked, "Lord Scanlon, do you have any prisoners on death row?""What do you mean by 'death row'?" Harold was puzzled.Oops, they did not understand what 'death row' meant here."I mean people who have committed serious crimes and are awaiting execution," Chase explained.

    It was clear that Lucas was more invested in this matter than he had been in any other before, likely due to the divine crystal.Hearing Lucas' reassurance, Chase no longer hesitated. With a single thought, a foreign consciousness appeared in his mind. Chase sensed it and confirmed that he could indeed expel this consciousness at any time and force Lucas back into the Dragon Vein Secret Realm.As Lucas took control of his body, Chase retreated into his mind. He felt a strange sensation. He was able to perceive and see what his body was doing without actually controlling it. It was a peculiar feeling.Though Lucas' control over Chase's body wasn't as fluid as Chase's own, it was adequate."Who are you? What do you want?" the prisoner asked nervously after seeing Eddard bring a stranger over and then leave. While controlling Chase's body, Lucas instantly moved into the cell without a word. He struck the prisoner unconscious with a single palm strike.Chase then witnessed something

    Chase found it amusing to see the prisoner so wary. He was just a late-stage true master of martial arts. Chase had killed several marquises of martial arts, so this guy was nothing to him."So, what does my benefactor want from me? As long as it's something I can do, I'll do it," the prisoner said quickly, assuming Chase had freed him to do some task. He was eager to save his own life."I don't need you to do anything. You're safe now, so you can leave," Chase replied, not wanting to waste more time talking to a doomed man."Can I really go?" The prisoner still could not believe it. After all, he was a notorious criminal and had long since stopped believing in others' goodwill.Chase did not say anything more. He just pointed to the door, indicating that the prisoner was free to leave.Hence, the prisoner did not hesitate and walked out the door, soon disappearing into the night. Was Chase really going to let him go? Of course not. Chase had already placed a trace of his consciou

    "Definitely. Of course." Seeing Chase agree to his proposal, Hal readily made an empty promise.Who knew what would happen in the future? Besides, after completing this task, he would have the upper hand once he joined Shadow Pavilion."What are you waiting for? Let's hurry," Hal urged, his previous dissatisfaction vanishing."Alright, Hal. I'll lead the way." Chase then led Hal through various turns until they reached the inn.Hal then saw fake Chase sitting on the second floor, drinking. To make the scene more convincing and to ensure more witnesses, Chase pretended to act impulsively, but Hal held him back."Hey now, there are too many people here. It's not good to attack in public. Besides, that person seems to be an early-stage marquis of martial arts. We should wait for a better opportunity," Hal advised."You're right, Hal. I was too hasty," Chase replied, though he was inwardly irritated.What was going on? Hal had been in such a hurry before, and now, he was hesitant af

    "Maybe it's because he was drunk?" Chase quickly came up with a plausible excuse."Maybe," Hal said as he took out the portrait to compare. It was indeed the same person.The people in the inn were shocked to see a regular customer killed just outside the door. They stood there, feeling stunned."Someone's been killed!" After a moment, the inn's patrons realized what had happened and shouted, waking up many in the dead of night."Hal, let's take the body back to claim our reward. This isn't the place to stand around," Chase reminded Hal while lifting the corpse though he actually wanted more people to witness the scene. Hal agreed."Right," Hal responded, shaking off his confusion. This was not the place to hesitate, so he followed Chase to Toledo's shop.The sound of their knocking echoed at the door of the closed shop."Who's there?" A lazy voice answered from inside. It was Toledo."Toledo, it's me and Hal!" Chase replied eagerly."Who are you?" Toledo still did not recogni

    "This is Master Shadeless. Why haven't you greeted him?" Toledo scolded Chase and Hal as he brought the old man over."Greetings, Master Shadeless!" Chase and Hal both said in unison, lowering their heads respectfully. Hal was sincere in his hopes of joining Shadow Pavilion. As for Chase, he also showed sincerity as he wanted to play his part convincingly."These are the two guys I mentioned earlier. They brought back our target. The one on the left is Chase, and the one on the right is Hal," Toledo introduced Chase and Hal to the old man."Mm," the old man replied indifferently, turning his attention to the corpse on the floor. After examining it briefly, he pulled out a dim crystal from his pocket and began to sense it.After a moment, he said, "Yes, it's him. But the item we're looking for is no longer on the body." He then glanced at Chase and Hal.Toledo quickly asked, "Did either of you take anything from the body, something that looks like this crystal?""No, Toledo. After

    Watching Chase and Hal leave, Toledo turned to the backyard where Shadeless was still examining the corpse."Master Shadeless, since we didn't retrieve the item from the target, why did we still reward those two?" Toledo asked."Even though we didn't find the item, this is definitely the right person. You don't need to worry about this anymore. Just focus on your own tasks. After reporting these two, they'll fill the vacancies left by those who were lost earlier," Shadeless said, dismissing Toledo.Shadeless then took the body and left the shop from the back, pulling out a crystal to sense for any traces. Sure enough, the body had a faint hint of the divine crystal's presence, but it was on the verge of dissipating.Either the divine crystal was handed to someone else by the deceased, or it was taken after he was killed.The only ones with the opportunity to take it were those who had fought him. Shadeless' eyes darkened as he thought about this.Even outside the shop, he could n

    The giant dragon opened its mouth and unleashed wave after wave of green toxic mist. Each of the vital energy dragons was instantly stained.Although they dealt considerable damage to the dragon in return, the deeper the green seeped into them, the faster they deteriorated.The water, fire, and lightning dragons were gradually corroded and eventually vanished into the air. Only the white vital spirit dragon remained—and it grew stronger with every exchange.The dragon was stunned.It discovered that every poisonous wave it spewed was being neutralized by that white dragon. Although each instance of purification dimmed the dragon slightly, it was clear—even if it exhausted every last drop of stored venom, the white dragon would still remain standing.However, that was not the worst part.Down below, that human man kept mimicking the motion of throwing a javelin—again and again. And yet, it never saw the actual javelin fly.At first, the dragon thought it was a joke. Then came the

    Immediately afterward, most of the animals coughed up several mouthfuls of black or green blood and then returned to normal. They all knew this was thanks to Chase.Many of the wild beasts and creatures ran over to him, bowing or kneeling in their own way to express their gratitude before turning and fleeing in the opposite direction.The giant dragon in the sky saw this and was equally astonished. The man below clearly had a cultivation level lower than its own, yet he possessed such a profound mastery of healing arts that he completely dispelled its innate toxic ability.It had to be noted that this poison had never failed within this world. The dragon could not help but abandon its initial contempt and began treating the matter seriously.It once again gathered vital energy, and its draconic aura burst forth. The animals that had fled earlier instantly dropped to the ground under the renewed pressure.Walter, whose true form was that of a giant python and who was a distant memb

    "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

    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 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

    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

    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

    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

    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
