"That's right! That man is a martial lord powerhouse. He hid his true powers before to trick us into our deaths. Such a despicable action is undeserving for a martial lord. Honorable Enshrined, please let us vent our anger at him once you maim him."The three Enshrined had no time to bother themselves with these people.No one had any idea how much pressure there was when facing Chase.All three of them had given everything they had but could only move half a step forward.Half a step was enough for them to break out in sweat.This was not normal!Olaf was stuck. As the leader, he was the one facing the most pressure from Chase. The veins on his face were throbbing, and his entire body trembled.He could not move forward nor could he retreat.However, that man was only one person while he had two others with him. It had to be a much more difficult fight for that man!It was because of this thought that Olaf stood his ground.A few minutes passed, and all three of them were sw
The moment a fully formed domain of the Dragon Vein Secret Realm descended, it was instantly clear that it was incomparable to an incomplete one.Olaf immediately sensed something was wrong. With no time to warn the others, he quickly moved aside. The immense pressure from the descending domain crashed down on Zoe and Josiah."No, stop!" they cried out, but it was too late.Their cultivation levels were already lower than Chase's. With Olaf, the strongest among them, moving out of the way first, they had no chance. The overwhelming force of the domain crushed them instantly, along with the dozen or so survivors who had been hiding behind them.In a single moment, everyone except Chase and a severely injured Olaf was dead. The scene was filled with severed limbs and splattered blood.Olaf, who had once been so arrogant, now trembled in fear. His face was pale, and his whole body shook as he pointed at Chase. "W-What kind of demon are you? Who are you?"Chase glanced coldly at Olaf
In the end, Olaf could not withstand the pressure and finally spoke up."It's because the Trevors control Holy Mountain, the only blessed spot in Eastern Ocean. If we want to advance further, we have no choice but to align ourselves with the Trevors.""But isn't Forage Mountain under the control of your so-called emperor?" Chase asked, feeling intrigued."The emperor hails from the Trevors! But this information isn't known to the general public."This revelation hit Chase like a bombshell, snapping him awake. Of course, Eastern Ocean's emperor would not be without his own family. Naturally, the emperor's family would be the most powerful in Eastern Ocean, who were the Trevors. How could Chase have overlooked such an obvious fact?Chase shook his head as if trying to dispel a fog clouding his mind.Since entering Eastern Ocean, he had not once considered this. Could it be that some unseen force had been influencing him all along?After examining himself for a while and finding no
Within Bactria, in Capital City, Gareth was sitting at his desk and handling the recent flood of administrative tasks. Just then, there was a knock at the door."Come in," he said.The door opened, and Scott walked in.It was clear that he had something on his mind but did not quite know how to start. Gareth noticed this and spoke calmly."Go ahead, what is it?"Without saying a word, Scott placed a phone on the desk in front of Gareth."What's this?" Gareth asked in confusion."Mr. Cloves, this is a video that's been circulating in Eastern Ocean. Take a look, and you'll understand."Curious, Gareth picked up the phone and clicked on the video. The footage showed Chase at the gates of the Jamesons' estate, unleashing havoc. Although the person filming was far away, Gareth recognized the figure immediately.It was Chase!As the video continued to play, Gareth's expression gradually grew more serious. When it ended, showing Chase calmly walking away, Gareth finally asked in an
This was a sizable settlement that was one of the few places that received a signal in Silent Creek.On the grass, two women—one older, one younger—were sitting in a daze."Quinn, we've been sitting here for three hours. Let's go back. There are matters in the sect that you need to handle," said the older woman."Grandma Snake, don't be in such a hurry. What could possibly be happening in the sect? It's just the same old routine every day, with or without me," Quinn replied."That's true. Ever since you returned to oversee the holy sect, Silent Creek has been peaceful. Those heretics don't dare stir up trouble anymore," Madam Snake said, acknowledging Quinn's impact.The two women were indeed Quinn and Madam Snake. Since returning to Silent Creek, Quinn would bring Madam Snake to this spot every day, spending hours in contemplation.A young woman suddenly rushed out of a nearby building, heading straight for Quinn."Ms. Norris, I found the information you wanted. Take a look and
In Capital City, Scott had just returned to the base from Gareth's office when an unexpected guest appeared."Quinn, what brings you here?" Scott asked curiously."I'm going to Eastern Ocean to look for Chase. I need your help to arrange it," Quinn stated her purpose directly. Although she could have flown there on her own, she realized that with Scott's assistance, the journey would be much easier. Hence, she decided to seek his help."Go to Eastern Ocean? That's out of the question," Scott initially looked surprised, then he firmly refused."Why not?" Quinn asked, puzzled."If Chase finds out I helped you get to Eastern Ocean, he'll beat me up for sure. I don't want to be the one who sends you there and makes him worry," Scott replied, offering a seemingly legitimate reason."I'm not asking for your permission. Whether you help me or not, I'm going," Quinn said calmly, her expression returning to normal.Realizing her determination, Scott's demeanor became serious. "Are you re
"To think that Chase is actually Rocky... So that's how it is," Hannah said, full of emotion."Hannah, I'm heading to Eastern Ocean to look for Rocky this time. Why don't you come along and give him a surprise?" Quinn warmly invited her.Hannah was about to agree excitedly, but something seemed to cross her mind, and she quickly changed her response. "On second thought, you go ahead. I still have some things to handle in Capital City. I'll join you both once I'm done."In the end, Hannah declined the offer to travel together. Hearing that, Quinn did not press further. The two sisters, having just reunited, now faced the prospect of parting again. They held each other's hands tightly, reluctant to let go.That night, a private jet quietly took off from a certain base in Capital City, bound for Eastern Ocean....At the base of Forage Mountain, visitors flocked in large numbers as it was a world-renowned tourist destination.Among the crowd were two men, one old and one young, w
"Are there many ordinary people like that on Forage Mountain?" Chase asked casually after passing by the two hikers."Not many, but there are a few. You encounter a few every year," Olaf quickly replied."Hmm. Once we reach the blessed spot, you know what to do, right?""Yes, honorable sir, I do," Olaf responded promptly, making his intentions clear.After another two hours of climbing, they were nearing the summit of Forage Mountain. The snowy landscape had disappeared, replaced by a dense forest. Chase knew this was due to the overwhelming concentration of spiritual energy in the area, which made the climate perpetually springlike.As they entered the forest, Chase began to sense the presence of many other cultivators."What are these people doing here?" Chase asked out of curiosity."Honorable sir, those who stay here are mostly martial artists who aren't qualified to enter the blessed spot for cultivation but still don't want to give up. Most are independent cultivators, t
A cynical smile appeared on Chase's face. He waved his hand, and two silver flashes shot out.Silver needles pierced into the men in black's hearts and through the middle of their eyes. They did not even make a sound as they died on the spot."What…"All the Webers watching took a sharp breath and stumbled back a few steps. There was wariness in their expressions as they were filled with fear. Those men were powerful martial artists, but they were killed without even being able to retaliate."Who is this man? How dare he slaughter the guards of the Secret Sect's headquarters?!"Everyone began whispering among themselves."My gosh! That man must be a god to be so powerful. He killed all the guards from the Secret Sect's headquarters! How many people have he killed?""I heard that a powerful man emerged in Capital City who destroyed the Starks. Could it be him?""Impossible! Your news is outdated. I heard that this man's name is Chase Collins. He was born in a village at the bord
Chase would rather exhaust his vital energy than use precious ingredients. After all, he aimed to be at the peak of martial arts.If he relied on precious ingredients to help achieve peak stage momentarily, it would easily leave unwanted side effects or even cause his power to spiral. His cultivation would be forever stalled if that happened.There was a reason why some things were too good to be true.The cultivator's path meant that the more powerful the skill, the more difficulties one had to endure. It was the same with saint-level skills."If I accumulate enough experience, I can still formulate a plan to scale to greater heights even if I'm unable to achieve a breakthrough within a short time."There was a glint deep inside Chase's eye.All the old and weak, women and children of the Webers were just ants to Chase. He could destroy them with just a flip of the hand. They were not worth mentioning at all.However, if they gathered, they would be able to produce great power
"Kill him!"These martial artists were all powerful fighters. Even the weakest among them was a peak eighth-tier semi-saint. They sensed with their consciousness that Halver had been defeated.All of the Webers' powerhouses were filled with hate and anger. They took out their weapons and lunged toward Chase in an attack.The look in Chase's eye became even colder when the Webers retaliated. "I'll destroy the Webers today and get those two medicinal herbs after."A huge sword shadow formed behind Chase. The sword flash swept in all directions, destroying all of the weapons in the attack against Chase.Chase took another step forward. The sword in hand dazzled so brightly that it hurt the eyes. The light covered every corner as if about to destroy everything.It took only a short time for the Webers' powerhouses to be slaughtered. They did not even have the chance to retaliate. They were as weak as sick chickens.Cletus was shocked, feeling his hair stand on end. It felt like deat
Everyone was delighted.Halver Weber, the master of the Weber Secret Sect, was a peak martial arts saint. He was the second most powerful man after the Supreme Elder of the Webers.Two old men in black stood next to him with powerful auras. One of them was the leader of the Webers' Enshrined, Dennis Cloy. The other man was Halver's brother, Cletus."Who are you? How dare you barge into the Weber residence?! Don't you know that the Webers are Capital City's top family?" Halver said with a cold look on his face."Top family?" Chase laughed condescendingly and said with indifference, "I heard that the Webers possess two thousand-year-old spiritual herbs. Bring them out here. Give me those herbs and the Webers will live. Otherwise…"Chase paused at this point. He swept a glance at all the Webers present. A cynical smile appeared on his face. "This isn't much. The Webers are nothing to me!"Halver was enraged and roared, "What arrogance! Don't blame us for retaliating with force now t
Meanwhile, Chase was glowing in gold light, looking like a God of War.He was dressed to hunt, and there was a cold look in his eye. He displayed no emotions, acting like all he had done was kill an ant.Chase pulled out his sword, where blood was dripping down the blade.He turned to leave and headed to look for the Webers. Now that he was done with the Starks, it was time to take care of the Webers.Chase thought about this as he walked there. The Starks were one of the most wealthy families in Capital City. It did not bother him to destroy the Starks, but he had to find a good reason to do so or it might make others suspicious."Forget about it. I'll destroy the Weber Secret Sect first before thinking about this."Not long after, Chase arrived at the door of the Weber Secret Sect. He pushed the door open and strode in.The guards of the Weber Secret Sect saw Chase barge in and shouted, "Who dares come into the Weber Secret Sect?!" Chase kept silent as he continued walking i
"Who exactly is that young man? Why haven't I heard of him? The Starks are finished for making such a powerful enemy."Chase was decisive and resolute. He was ruthless, which frightened many of the Starks' guards.He closed his eyes to rest. Thin, black smoke began wafting out of his body and it eventually covered everything around Chase. No one was able to get near him.This was a lonely mountain peak that was far away from the bustling city.After some time, a car came by and parked near the mountain."Bastard!"Someone roared in misery. Theo Stark jumped out of his car. He was furious and roared with great anger.He looked at the abandoned house in front of him. Sorrow, fear, and revenge consumed him. His roars echoed all around."Chase Collins! Where is my son, Tank?!"He ran toward the ruins crazily.Just as Theo was about to get inside, he suddenly sensed a great danger. The next thing he knew, the mountain began shaking. It felt like the sky was about to fall. Theo was
Something sped by in the air, and several powerful auras were coming in close."Who are you? How dare you slaughter the Starks?"The man in the lead grunted coldly. He had a spear in his hand and came speeding over in a flash to stab Chase in the back.Chase did not look back. He raised his left hand and flicked his finger. There was a loud bang, and the spear broke into pieces. Turning back, he waved his hand. The dagger shot out midair and stabbed right between the man's eyes."H-How is this possible…" The man's eyes widened as he looked at Chase in disbelief. His mouth moved as if trying to say something, but his body gradually turned cold and stiff. This happened in a flash.By the time the other powerful auras appeared, the man with the spear was dead."Who are you?!" The two men were shocked. They were looking at Chase in great astonishment."I should be the one asking who you are," Chase sneered, his eyes narrowing.The two old men stepped forward and said in a deep voic
Chase saw that the entire living room was covered in blood. The walls were filled with various frightening torture tools."Is this how the Starks treat their guests?" Chase's expression was cold. He said this slowly and carefully, making sure every word was heard.The Starks!They were crossing the line!"Who's there?!"An angry voice was heard from deep inside the house. It was followed by violent coughing.A young man with messy hair struggled to stand. He was covered in blood. An arm fell limply below his shoulders. The cut on it was clean, and it was a horrifying sight to see.His eyes were bloodshot as he stared at Chase. "You worthless ant, you—pfft!"He only managed a few words before his throat caught something and he coughed up blood."Who are you? The Starks have never crossed paths with you. Why do you want me dead?!" He was a member of the Starks, and he questioned Chase with clenched teeth.A name immediately appeared in Chase's mind at the sight of this Stark fa
The elder was furious with what the Gold Devouring Voodoo Bug did."Damn it! You destroyed everything I had!"He was filled with anger. His eyes were red as he yelled hysterically. His voice was shrill, and it sounded like the shrill of a banshee."Did you think you were the only one who knew how to use voodoo?" Chase grunted coldly."Impossible! How could you know restricted mystical techniques?" The elder was in disbelief. Only a direct descendent of the clan was qualified to cultivate the Gold Devouring Voodoo Bug."Nothing is impossible in this world," Chase said with conviction.He flicked his fingers after that, and a green talisman appeared. It exploded with a loud bang and formed into a burning ball of flame.Two balls of flame came flying over and sat on each side of Chase's shoulder. The flames burned furiously as they formed into fire armor that covered him. His defense increased."You must die…"The elder laughed crazily.He waved his hand, and two wooden puppets
