Inside the Cooper residence, within the secret realm, an elder suddenly woke up and pushed open the door of his seclusion chamber"What happened?"The elder was none other than Taggart Cooper, the previous patriarch of the Coopers and Lennox's father. He had been in seclusion, attempting to break past the martial lord realm and reach the legendary martial sovereign realm.He emerged from his seclusion upon sensing a major disturbance.After Taggart's question, several people hurried in from the side."Supreme Elder, something terrible has happened!""What is it? Why are you in such a panic? Compose yourselves!"Seeing the family members trembling, Taggart scolded them. "Supreme Elder, the patriarch is dead!""What did you say?"Taggart was shocked."Not only the patriarch, but Mr. Everett and Mr. Emmett are also dead."The messenger spoke fearfully.Even Taggart could not help but tremble slightly. His son was gone, and his grandsons too."Who did this? Tell me, was it one
"What's wrong, Chase? Are you really mad? You're leaving when this just started."Scott tried to convince him to stay."Stop with the jokes, Scott. We've been in the secret realm for so many days, and I have an issue at home that I need to deal with. Come by my house when you have the chance. We'll drink till kingdom come."Chase said to him with a smile."Oh, you've already gotten a house in Capital City. It looks like you're prepared to stay here for the long term. It's a deal, then. Don't throw me out of your house when I come knocking."Scott smiled when he saw that Chase was not really mad."Of course, I won't."After saying their goodbyes, Chase left the headquarters with Quinn as they flew high in the air.It was only then that they had some private time together.Up in the air, Chase suddenly stopped flying forward.Quinn did not notice this and crashed in the Chase's back."What's wrong, Chase?" Quinn asked gently."I found the orphanage's enemy, Quinn."She was s
"Oh no, It's Chase Collins!"Many of them recognized him as they exclaimed."Is he crazy? How could he barge in here in broad daylight?"Some of them even found this incredulous."Since he showed up of his own accord, let's just work together to kill him and get revenge for Master Lennox!"A few people appeared and attacked Chase.Chase and Quinn looked at each other. They immediately knew what the other was thinking.Both of their cultivations surged in an eruption, and they turned into two flashes of light as they began killing everyone.The Cooper residence instantly became a battlefield. Unlike Chase and Quinn who did not hold back, the Coopers fought with slight trepidation.Every move was lethal. Chase and Quinn did not hold back. Every burst of true energy from them would either kill someone or destroy a few of the pillars in the house.It was not long before the Cooper residence was in ruins as every place was destroyed.Corpses covered the ground.Chase did what
Quinn laughed at Bianca teasingly.Since having a heart-to-heart, they had become more comfortable with each other."Stop it, Quinn." Bianca reached out to grab Quinn's arm, and they left together, leaving Chase alone."She only has less than two years left, Chase."Chase had been in a daze. That was when a voice rang in his mind.It was Lucas. He was the previous sect master of the Esoteric Medical Sect, after all. It took only one look from Lucas to know what was wrong with Bianca."What do you mean, sir?" Chase asked in bewilderment."If you guessed it's because of her Dragon Song Physique, you're right. Even though she looks fine on the surface, the dragon energy within her is starting to awaken. It would be the perfect time to cultivate if she were a man. "However, a woman has light energy, which complicates the situation. She'll lose the ability to walk within a year and die within two years.""Is there anything we can do to help her now that you've pinpointed the probl
Chase quickly looked away when he heard the woman's unhappy tone."Miss Hannah, don't open the door every time you hear someone outside. There's always someone knocking on the door for no reason here. Several people show up like this every day.It's so annoying every time you open the door. "Before Chase could say anything, the voice spoke up next to the woman again. Chase followed the direction of the voice and soon saw a lively woman appear in front of him."Stop that, Lottie. He's still out here."Lottie stared at Chase. He looked to be in his 20s.There was a condescending look on her face."I don't care if he's still out here."Didn't I tell you, Miss Hannah? Look at him. He's one of those shameless men loitering around and knocking on people's door for no reason.""Quiet, Lottie!""Don't take in just anybody just because you have no customers, Miss Hannah. Look at him. Does he look like a patient to you?"Lottie was still talking back at Hannah.Chase felt slightly aw
An embarrassed look appeared on Hannah's beautiful face.Frowning, she contemplated this. She finally gave in to reality and said to Chase, "Mr. Collins, you can tell me about the situation.""There's someone I know who possesses the legendary Dragon Song Physique. I was looking for the miracle doctor to help her expel it from her. I wonder if you're able to get it done, Miss Jones?"Chase was straightforward about it when he found out Hannah was Skylar's disciple."The Dragon Song Physique? From what I understand, this physique is very rare even in the cultivating world. Why would you want to expel it, Mr. Collins?"Hannah was bewildered."Yes, I know that. This is a very rare physique in the cultivating world, but what if it was a woman who possesses it?""A woman? I see. I understand now. However, even my master hasn't met with such a situation before. I don't have full confidence in helping you with this. I'd need to see the patient first before deciding anything. "Where i
Chase appeared with Hannah at the front door of South Monarch Manor."Where is this?" Hannah asked warily."This is my home."Chase led Hannah straight inside.She was immediately met with glares from Quinn and Bianca.Chase had only been gone for a while, and he was already back with a beautiful woman.He quickly transmitted his voice to Quinn, "Quinn, this is the doctor I got to help treat Bianca's Dragon Song Physique."Chase had told her earlier about Bianca's Dragon Song Physique.Quinn looked slightly relieved when she heard Chase's explanation.Hannah frowned the moment she saw Bianca.As the only disciple of the miracle doctor, Skylar, Hannah recognized Bianca's physique with a single look. It was really the Dragon Song Physique."Is there any way of expelling it?"Chase whispered the question in Hannah's ear.Hannah remembered Chase telling her that this woman had no idea that the physique was threatening her life. So, she went along with her and whispered the ans
Chase knew nothing about this before Lucas informed him about it.All Hannah did was check Bianca's pulse and she was able to diagnose the situation. It was no wonder that she could be a disciple of the miracle doctor, Skylar."Is there anything you can do, Miss Jones?" Chase quickly asked."No, there isn't.""Is there nothing I can do but watch Bianca die?"Hannah did not reply to him but asked a question instead, "Mr. Collins, what's your relationship with Quinn and Miss Cooper?"How did she know Quinn's name? Chase was curious but did not think much of it."One is my fianceé, and the other is a very good friend."Chase did not hide anything and told her the truth."You're a lucky man, Mr. Collins, especially when both women are able to live together peacefully."Hannah started to sound sarcastic when she heard his answer.It was clear that Chase's answer had upset Hannah."Does this have anything to do with Bianca's condition?"Chase was not angered but tried asking mor
"Listen up! I won't destroy my skills because lowlives like you aren't good enough to be my enemies!""What arrogance!"A powerful negative energy exploded from the young man in black."Don't you know anyone who said that died in the end?"The young man in black waved his hand, and a black saber appeared out of thin air. It glinted with a chilling flash."A precious weapon!"Chase's eyes brightened. He had heard someone talk about the treasure vault of the Nefarious Deity Sect. This weapon seemed to have been taken from there."Die!" the young man roared, and the black saber slashed down the air.A vast sword flash shone with brilliance and came down at Chase like a raging storm that wanted to crush Chase to pieces."You're a mere martial god ant. How dare you act so arrogantly in front of me?"Chase grunted coldly. He swept the red battle spear in his hand across at his opponent.There was a series of explosions that caused tremors everywhere. The sword flash vanished and f
"Let's go!"The bearded man stood up with difficulty while glaring fiercely at Chase. "Mark my words! This grudge between us isn't settled. I won't let you off!"With those words, the group of seven quickly retreated while supporting the bearded man. In the blink of an eye, they disappeared from view.…"Did something happen here?" A while later, the sound of footsteps echoed nearby.Two young men in green robes approached, and as they took in the scene before them, their expressions froze in shock."What's going on here? I can see signs of battle. Could it be that powerful warriors were fighting here?" one of the youths asked, feeling perplexed."Wait, I smell blood! Could it be that someone was killed in a fight here?" the other exclaimed in alarm.Following the scent of blood, the two came across the bodies of several fallen guards lying on the ground. Among them, the bearded man was now barely clinging to life."It's him!"The two youths recognized the bearded man instant
"That's right! Kill him!"The remaining warriors gritted their teeth, their faces twisting with rage as they spread out and surrounded Chase.Although they were wary of Chase's strength, there was not a trace of fear in their expressions."I don't enjoy killing unnecessarily," Chase said calmly as his gaze swept across the group. "If you leave now, I promise not to harm any of you.""Stop wasting your breath!" the bearded man roared. Brandishing a long blade, he charged at Chase. "Kill him! Kill this beast!"In an instant, icy flashes of blade light sliced toward Chase.These attackers, all at the mid-stage of martial god, unleashed their sharpest attacks without hesitation. Each move was deadly and decisive, aiming to give Chase no chance to retaliate.However, Chase simply raised his palm and struck. With each punch, he unleashed an overwhelming force that shattered all the incoming blades of light.The last attacker was blasted into the air, coughing up a mouthful of blood b
'This place must have more monsters. I'll return later to collect them. If other warriors grab the spoils, it'll be a huge loss,' Chase thought to himself.He stood up, his gaze sweeping across the distant warriors. "Scram," he said coldly.At that moment, the sound of rushing wind echoed in the distance. Eight warriors dashed forward at incredible speed, landing near Chase in the blink of an eye.These eight individuals were all martial gods, and among them were two particularly powerful elders who had already reached the mid-stage of martial god.The two leading figures radiated the most imposing aura. One wore a purple crown while the other had a thick beard and piercing, sinister eyes."Where's Lysander? What happened to him?" the bearded man demanded."He's dead," Chase replied indifferently."What?! Who dares to kill him?!" The bearded man erupted in rage, his eyes burning with fury as he glared at Chase.The other warriors were equally shocked. Lysander, an early-stage m
Lysander's body trembled as he gathered all the martial god energy within him, channeling it into his legs. He unleashed a flurry of kicks, each imbued with the force of his energy.At that moment, Lysander appeared like a masterful fighter. His movements were sharp and relentless.Each kick was faster than the last, and every punch carried a force that could shatter mountains as it slammed into the wild tiger's abdomen.The tiger howled in pain as its massive body slid several feet to the side. Its stomach was dented and bleeding profusely.However, Lysander's situation deteriorated rapidly. His body was drenched in blood, and his injuries became critical.The tiger lunged again, its jaws clamping down on Lysander's shoulder with a sickening crunch. Bones shattered, and blood sprayed in all directions, soaking his clothes."Help me!" Lysander cried out desperately."Run! Just run!" shouted the remaining martial artists who had not gotten far.The scene resembled a nightmare, l
The next day, Chase continued his journey.Suddenly, the ground began to tremble violently. In Chase's line of sight, a massive tiger-leopard hybrid came barreling toward him, its enormous paws smashing trees into splinters as it charged forward.This beast was akin to a martial god-level wild tiger, with a hulking frame, fur as tough as iron, and an aura radiating intense negative energy.The wild tiger let out a deafening roar. Its soundwaves reverberated in all directions, shaking the earth and instilling sheer terror in anyone who heard it."Damn it! That beast is back again!" a young martial artist cursed through gritted teeth.His left arm hung limp, shattered, and his chest bore a gruesome gash. He had nearly died from the tiger's earlier attack."Run! If we don't run now, we're dead!"The remaining five or six young martial artists turned and fled in panic.This wild tiger's strength was overwhelmingly powerful. Even elite martial god-level warriors would avoid a direct
The giant ape's massive club swept through the air, creating a terrifying gust that caused the crowns of nearby ancient trees to tremble violently.Meanwhile, Chase executed the techniques of his secret codex with agile movements. His figure flashed like lightning as he dodged the attack with precision.He surged forward without hesitation and delivered a fierce punch directly to the ape's abdomen.This strike was even more powerful than before, twisting the ape's intestines into a mess and splattering blood across the ground.The giant ape howled in anguish, thrashing wildly in an attempt to shake off its pain.Out of the corner of his eye, Chase noticed a crimson serpent coiled nearby. It slithered sinuously, measuring around ten feet long, with a body that released a pungent stench.The snake's cold, piercing gaze was fixed on Chase. It emanated a chilling sense of oppression. Its forked tongue flicked out menacingly as it launched itself at him.Chase's expression hardened.
The massive ape spread its enormous wings that spanned 25 feet in width, creating a dark shadow that blocked out the sunlight like two great black clouds.The ape let out a deafening bellow, a primal roar that resonated with the ferocity of an ancient beast.In an instant, the surrounding area—nearly 300 feet in radius—was swept by fierce winds. Sand whirled through the air, grass was uprooted, and trees swayed violently as their branches rattled and leaves scattered.The air was heavy with a menacing energy."A monster!" Chase muttered, narrowing his eyes as he took a defensive stance.The aura emanating from this creature was suffocating, its strength comparable to that of a martial god at its peak."Perfect! Let this serve as a lesson to all those fools that I'm not someone to be trifled with!"Chase launched himself forward without hesitation, closing the distance with the towering beast.His fist collided with the air, creating a sharp sonic boom that reverberated through
A sharp blade appeared in Chase's hand.This was a spiritual artifact named Azure Edge, forged by a renowned swordsmith after considerable expense and effort.A flash of cold light swept across, instantly felling over a dozen ghostly creatures.They stood no chance against Chase's strikes. Their throats were slit, and their heads separated cleanly from their bodies.A crimson crystal dropped into Chase's palm.It appeared unremarkable at first glance, but it contained a thick, viscous vitality and was more potent than ordinary blood. A faint spiritual essence seemed to pulse within it, emanating an almost sentient energy."Is this a ghost crystal?" Chase's eyes lit up with excitement.He immediately sat down cross-legged, focusing on restoring his depleted vitality.Within his core, his Sea of True Energy roiled and churned. Vitality surged as waves of energy coursed through his bloodstream, refining his muscles and bones."This ghost crystal is incredible. It's allowing my bo
