"You don't believe me, do you, kid? Do you have any idea how long my true form has been submerged in this magma without any harm? It's all thanks to this cultivation technique. And don't forget, among the four Divine Beasts, the Black Turtle is renowned for its defense."Even if you only master the first stage of this technique, you'll be able to withstand the heat of the magma," the Divine Black Turtle proudly declared upon sensing Chase's skepticism.Even though Chase could not see the Black Turtle at the moment, he could easily imagine the beast's prideful expression. The Black Turtle was indeed known for its formidable defense among the four Divine Beasts.Realizing there was some truth in the Black Turtle's words, Chase no longer hesitated. He found a spot on a rock near the edge of the magma, where the molten rock could not splash on him, and sat down cross-legged."Kid, even though you're just starting to cultivate, with me as your master guiding you, you should be able to g
Chase began to cultivate, absorbing the heat seen wafting from the lava.His power kept escalating until a breakthrough point.Then, it sounded like a balloon had burst.Chase had achieved another breakthrough. He had become a stage-five martial lord.There was another change in the realm inside of Chase. Another fiery red bubble appeared below the Slayer's Realm.It's the birth of another new realm!As the bubble appeared, a black hole also appeared on Chase's body in the real world.Lava began flowing inside the black hole without stopping straight into the fiery red bubble.Even though Chase was physically cultivating, his consciousness was not affected by it and it even appeared next to the divine Black Turtle's spiritual body.He asked with slight embarrassment, "Mr. Black Turtle, am I cultivating the Black Turtle Hardshell Technique correctly?"Chase had noticed the fifth realm, the Magma Realm, suddenly appear. He was bewildered about it too.The divine Black Turt
Olaf snapped out of it only after Chase spoke up. He held back his astonishment and quickly informed Chase about the situation, "Honorable sir, quick! We should leave this place now. The volcano is about to erupt!""Huh?"Chase was taken aback and took a while to react. Olaf must have mistaken the situation as Chase had been filling up the realm in his body with the lava.He decided not to bring it up to Olaf."It's fine. It's all under control. Head up. I'll join you in a while."For some reason, Olaf believed Chase and went up the steps as instructed.Chase waited until Olaf could no longer see him.That was when he dived back into the lava.Now that the Magma Realm had been shaped, there was no point in continuing to absorb the lava.He had dove about 20 meters into the lava before this, and he had absorbed a lot of it into his inner realm. He would be able to find the divine Black Turtle's body if he dove another 30 meters. Chase began to feel curious.What would the divi
It looked like the divine Black Turtle was wrong.Not only could this secret realm contain spiritual bodies, but it could even take in physical bodies.When could a top-level secret realm like this be taken around by a person anywhere he went?Had the divine Black Turtle been asleep too long? Had the world changed drastically?He had experienced astonishment too often the entire day, which was quite a higher frequency than usual."Um… Sir, do you want to try returning to your body to see how it feels? It feels awkward to be stared at like this by you. I feel like there are two divine Black Turtles here."Chase appeared in the Dragon Vein Secret Realm and spoke up.The divine Black Turtle snapped out of it.His spiritual body formed into smoke and entered the physical body via the head.The head's eyes slowly opened.Those eyes stared at Chase.Chase felt like those eyes could see right through him as if they could see through all of his secrets.He had never felt that way b
Even though Olaf was just an Enshrined with the Trevors, he was held in high regard. The Trevors still gave him ample respect.Just when that man was about to say something, he noticed four more people appear behind Olaf.It was Chase, Stephen, and the rest.The man was taken aback."Mr. Olaf, who are these people?""It's okay, They're my friends," Olaf said calmly."Mr. Olaf, they're not allowed to enter this place even if they are your friends. Mr. Hamish has given strict orders about this." The middle-aged man wanted to say more. He did not notice Olaf had appeared next to him.The next instant, Olaf made a quick move. Before the man knew it, his head was already rolling off his body.There was an incredulous look on his face when his head fell to the ground.Why would Olaf kill him?Chase watched this coldly. He was the one who had given Olaf the order for the sudden attack.The man did not understand even at death why the Trevors' lead Enshrined would want to kill him.
He could not believe that these people would choose death voluntarily.There was a cold look in Chase's eyes.It was not only this man who spoke; several more people started to stand up from afar. They began to gather toward Chase and the rest. It was only a matter of time before they discovered the corpse.Chase said calmly, "If this is what they choose to do, we'll let go of all inhibitions and kill every one of them. Let no one escape."He gave the order.Olaf was the first to attack. He flew toward the man who had spoken.Air restriction was not in place inside the blessed spot, so Olaf formed into a flash of light as he sped toward the man.That man did not notice anything unusual. He was feeling gleeful about being able to attract Olaf's attention by speaking up.He mistakenly thought that Olaf had taken an interest in him. Otherwise, why would Olaf come toward him instead of the others who had also stood up?Olaf probably wanted to hand out a mission to him.The man wa
Chase had recognized High Heaven Plains as a location he had heard about in Eastern Ocean mythology.However, he did not have much knowledge of Eastern Ocean mythology. However, if such a name existed in stories, there would be a chance that it would be used in reality.It was just like how Chase had thought that the Four Arms of Bactria had borrowed their names from mythology.However, one of them was now very much alive and real inside his Dragon Vein Secret Realm.Chase decided to ask about it just to be safe."Honorable sir, High Heaven Plains is where the emperor is. He named the second level of the blessed spot High Heaven Plains to emphasize his uniqueness. High Heaven Plains is where the Sun Deity stays, and the emperor is comparing himself to the Sun Deity, thus it was named as such."Olaf quickly explained when he saw the look on Chase's face. Realization dawned upon Chase after that, and he no longer hesitated.Five of them stepped into the entrance of the second l
"Master, this involves the life and death of the Trevors. I have to see Mr. Hamish personally.""Is this some sort of joke? Nothing in this world can affect the Trevors' place in the world. Don't be ridiculous."Sable did not believe Olaf and burst out laughing."Master, it's true. Please believe what I'm about to say," Olaf said as he approached Sable.As Olaf was considered half his disciple and this was High Heaven Plains, Sable did not stop Olaf from getting nearer.However, Olaf still did not say a word as he got closer.Sable finally spoke up in annoyance."What exactly do you need to tell me? Say something right now or I'll report to Mr. Hamish that you abandoned your responsibilities at the Trevor Estate. You'll end up needing ten years in your post instead of five years before you're allowed to step in here."It turned out that the lead Enshrined of the Trevors would traditionally enter High Heaven Plains to cultivate after five years. This tempting reason was why nume
"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
Chase's eyes narrowed as he observed the mountain of gold and jewels gleaming before him. They were treasures of immense value.He cast a cold glance at the glittering heap and shook his head. "These baubles are worth less than your pitiful insects. They don't even qualify to buy your life."Before his words faded, Chase extended his hand, unleashing a sharp burst of sword energy.The sword energy tore through the treasure, shattering the gold and jewels into dust, leaving not a single piece intact."I told you, you'll die a miserable death." The elder clenched his teeth while his fists trembled with rage.Suddenly, the space around them became distorted. A strange and eerie energy weaved itself into a cage that encased Chase."Devouring Spirit Ghost Domain!" the elder roared, his bloodshot eyes wide with madness. "You're doomed! I'll make you suffer every imaginable torment before you die!"Chase felt the oppressive atmosphere around him intensify, the air thick with the mournf
"You're doomed!" the elder spat venomously, his eyes ablaze with hatred.The Gold Devouring Voodoo Bugs were not so easily eradicated. Their corpses would transform into sustenance for dormant eggs within them, allowing the swarm to regrow stronger and more voracious than before. Eventually, they would consume their hosts' life essence entirely."I'll make sure you'll die without even leaving a corpse behind!" the elder bellowed, his voice tinged with madness.The desolate front yard crumbled under the destructive force of their battle, leaving not a single brick or stone intact.The elder's tattered robes fell apart, revealing a body covered in deep sword wounds. Blood gushed out from every gash. Yet he persisted, his resolve remaining unshaken. He believed Chase was merely a newly-ascended peak semi-saint, far from being a match for him."You won't win—not while I have the Gold Devouring Voodoo Bugs!" he roared, his bloodshot eyes burning with frenzy. "As long as they exist, I'l
