He raised his voice and said, "You sure are getting very excited. Why don't you introduce yourself, then? You're insulting me so much, but you can't even beat me! I know who you are very well. You're from the third-grade world, Hundred Hand Continent. You're from a ninth-grade clan, and I heard you were an inner disciple. It would be one thing if you were an inner disciple of a holy-grade clan, but you're just from a trash ninth-grade clan! Stop trying to show off in front of me, you have no right to!"The two of them were exposing each other, and they started to quarrel once again. Fane sighed helplessly, not really wanting to get involved in their conflict.Even though he did not like Lourain either, he understood the value of taking things slow. Everything should be pushed behind for the moment since the most important thing was the Seven Deaths Array at that moment. After the two of them exposed each other, Fane had a good idea of the situation.The two of them were just slightl
Fane scoffed, not caring about how Lourain looked at the rest of them. Fane would not allow Lourain to be a problem when the time came. If Lourain decided not to do anything when they were attempting the challenge, it was still something Fane could handle.However, if Lourain decided to sabotage them instead, then Fane would absolutely not tolerate that. If Lourain really decided to cross the line, then Fane did not mind giving him a deep impression.Fane coldly looked at Lourain, "When we're attempting the challenge, you can hide behind me if you think you can't do much. I'm not hoping for the two of you to be all that useful, but it'll be fine as long as you don't drag me down."Marth was stunned to hear that. He never expected the person who had been so quiet the whole time to say something like that. It seemed like Fane was incredibly confident in himself. Was he exceptionally skilled?Just as his thoughts wandered, Lourain shouted, "What? What did you say?! Who do you think yo
He felt like his sufferings were because of those people, and he believed that he would have been in a perfectly fine state if they were not around. If the person who said all of that was from a second-grade world, Lourain would not have reacted like this, though he would still think the other party was bragging.However, the man lacked the special symbols from second-grade worlds on his clothes, which meant he was from a third-grade world. A mere pest from a third-grade world…treated him and Marth as a burden.He felt like he would be able to pass everything by himself. He was speaking as if he was someone that stood at the peak of all warriors, bragging without any reservation.Lourain's shout attracted quite a lot of attention. Everyone looked over with interest.Lourain pointed at Fane and said, "This guy just asked the two of us to hide behind him if anything dangerous happens. He wants to get through the whole Violet Seven Deaths Array with whatever skills he got!"Those wor
"Us warriors from second-grade worlds are so unlucky. These guys who don't know their place are obsessed with the idea of passing the Seven Deaths Array. Even if they're lucky enough to find someone strong enough to bring them through, what can they do after that? They'll just be cannon fodder!"The Seven Deaths Array is difficult as it is. Will the challenges inside be easy? They'd be much harder, and the danger levels would soar as well. Expendables will die immediately; that's just their fate!"Alas, none of them realize how dispensable they are. They think that they'd have the chance to change their destiny, that they'd breeze through the moment they entered. What a joke. There's no way expandables would get the chance to change their destiny; only those with the ability would be able to get the chance. It's far from their turn to even attempt it!" a short and muscular man shouted.His words earned many nods from the warriors of second-grade worlds. All of them were complaining
"You think too highly of yourself. You seem to think that Violet City is like your backyard. Do you think you can just enter as you please? Stop joking around. Even many second-grade-world warriors failed and were tossed out."With the three of your skills combined, other than the one from a second-grade world, the two of you should be proud of yourselves if you manage to stand firmly on the ground when you're tossed out!"Lourain started to laugh as he pointed at Fane and said, "Do you hear that? This is what everyone thinks. Stop thinking so highly of yourself. With your skills, I don't even know if you can protect yourself. Who do you think you are, saying you'll lead us to victory?""You!" Rudy was so angry that he wanted to rush over if it were not for Fane grabbing him. These people were crossing the line!Fane raised an eyebrow before he patted Rudy on the arm, calming Rudy. It was not like they could attack these people anyway; arguing with these people was meaningless.He
The entrance to the Seven Deaths Array was about three meters wide and three meters tall. It was in the middle of the whole place. After getting assigned to their groups, the challengers could go in whenever they wanted to within the next day.Many of them were not very confident. They had not vented out all their complaints yet, which was why they remained outside for a long time. However, they were still limited to a day no matter what. After a day, any challenger who had not entered would be considered to have forfeited, and they would lose their chance.The three of them arrived at the entrance and looked at the violet glow in front of them. Lourain stood there, his eyes staring right at the entrance. Even though he did his best to try and make himself look calm, Fane could still see the pressure getting to Lourain. It was obvious that Lourain was not that confident."If you're worried, you can stay out of this." Fane's tone was cold.Lourain sharply looked over and looked at F
However, that conflict did not last for that long. When Fane took that last step, the killing array was activated. A golden glow suddenly appeared in the violet light. The golden glow turned into a warm wind and quickly circled them.The three of them immediately took out their weapons. Compared to how anxious the two of them were, Fane was calm with a glint of curiosity in his eyes. He wanted to see how powerful the Seven Deaths Array was.Crack!The sound of weapons clashing against each other could be heard in front of them. The golden glow intensified, swallowing the violet light around them. After a few moments, two massive, brightly glowing golden swords appeared in front of them. Upon closer inspection, they could see runes floating around the swords.Lourain gulped and said, "A metal-type killing array!"There were a total of seven killing arrays of various attributes within the Seven Deaths Array. He could not believe the first one they saw would be a metal type.Even th
After a brief moment, it formed into 12 golden swords, each one aimed toward them in a semicircle. If it had been two massive swords, they would have been able to avoid them if they were quick enough, but 12 swords…sealed off their fate.Other than retreating, there was nothing else they could do.When the thought surfaced, a massive wave of murderous intent came from behind them. The three of them looked over, and Lourain's eyes almost popped out of their sockets as he gulped.The golden swords were not just in front of them but behind them as well. At that moment, 12 golden swords were charging at them from the front, while two massive golden swords were charging at them from the back, preventing any form of escape. There was no way to avoid the attack.They only had one choice, which was to face it head-on.At that moment, Lourain and Marth were both anxious. They knew, at this moment, why many failed. It was just the first array, and it was already so difficult.Lourain mumbl
There was a heavy rumbling as the door slowly opened. A boundless sense of energy seemed to come from it.A few of them looked inside. Other than the green light, they could see nothing. The light completely obscured their sight. If they wanted to look inside, they would have to step in themselves.On the way there, Fane had already talked to Lourain about it. Lourain wanted to see what the legendary Valley of Enlightenment was like. That was why Fane asked for two spots.The three of them exchanged looks with each other, and they did not hesitate to step forward together, entering the door.The power of distorting space suddenly pulled the three of them in. The space around them started to spin rapidly. They did not know how much time passed, but it felt like a whole century before the space slowed down in front of them. Then, the sense of weightlessness disappeared as their feet landed on solid ground.The three of them had not been sent to different locations and arrived at the
Zayne scoffed, "Alright then, how do you want to work together?"He wanted to see what Fane was trying to do.Fane did not waste any time, "Both of us have all three keys, and we can open the door. Ten people can enter the door anyway. I just need two of those spots.Zayne looked at Fane meaningfully, "You sure know quite a bit."Fane even knew that only ten people would be allowed through. He seemed to have done his homework.Zayne took out his purple key from his storage ring. At that moment, all three keys were there. As long as all the keys were placed together, the gateway to the Valley of Enlightenment would open."If you only need two spots, then I don't mind working with you," Zayne looked at Fane meaningfully, but he quickly added, "However, make sure you don't cause any trouble during the important moments."Fane smiled before he said, "I've always been someone who keeps to my word. I'm more worried that you'll cause me trouble instead. There are many geniuses in the V
The two of them knew what that meant. Their eyes met, and worry was evident in their eyes."Is it Fane again?" Zayne said with a frown. At that moment, the first name that popped up in his head was Fane.Only Fane would truly be a big problem for them. Seymour's expression turned sour. He suddenly felt like Fane seemed to be his Achilles heel. Fane could pop out at any time and put him in a difficult spot."That's right! It's me!" At that moment, a voice was heard from afar. The two of them looked in the direction of the voice and saw five figures appearing in the air.This time, Fane did not have a disguise on. He was facing everyone with his real face."It really is you!" Zayne's face completely soured at that moment. Even if they were meeting for the first time, he was already incredibly sensitive to Fane's name.Nothing good ever happened when Fane was mentioned and Fane had actually appeared in front of him."How dare you!" Seymour shouted angrily!He walked forward to sta
When Shin and the others saw that, they were speechless. That person who had looked down on them was completely bound and on the ground at that moment. He looked pathetic.Fane quickly walked toward Warren, reaching out to pull off the mask to reveal his face.Fane controlled his energy, reducing the destructive power in Warren's soul. After the pain diminished, Warren slowly woke up.He looked up and saw the one person he never wanted to see in his life. He lost his voice as he said, "Fane?! It's you!" He almost bit his tongue as he spoke.Fane smiled and nodded slightly, "Yes. It’s me.""No wonder, so it's you! Where's Presti then?" Warren looked up and said.Fane raised an eyebrow and shot an incredulous look at Warren. Warren immediately understood what happened, and his whole face turned pale, "He's dead!"Fane nodded. There was nothing much to hide. Warren gulped, suddenly feeling like his thoughts from earlier were an absolute joke at that moment. He had even been think
After seeing that, there was a surprised look on Warren's face. However, he quickly pushed back that surprise. Even if that man was skilled, he would just be an above-average warrior. Above-average warriors were like paper to him!"Brat, it looks like you have some skill. However, that means nothing in front of me. I'll show you right now what a warrior at the peak is!"Right after he said that, he circulated his true energy around his feet. Red energy started to frantically blow away the dust on the ground. He lunged into the air incredibly fast.Fane raised an eyebrow before he started to form seals with his hands. Countless seals danced around in the air, and a chain appeared.That chain looked like a black dragon as it danced in the air.Warren scoffed in disdain. It was just a petty trick from an above-average warrior in his eyes. That chain would shatter in just one blow.He did not even bother thinking about it as he raised the sword in his hand. A silver ray of light quic
He leaped forward and landed in front of those four. Fane had already noticed Warren a while ago, but Fane relaxed when he saw Warren was alone. If it was just one person, then there was nothing to worry about!"Presti really is a piece of trash. He couldn't even get you!" Warren said with a sneer.Shin clutched his chest and turned to look at Cavill next to him. Cavill nodded slightly and did not say anything. The two of them shut their mouths at the same time as they looked in Fane's direction.Warren immediately felt something was wrong. He turned to look at Fane and saw that Fane was still completely calm as if nothing had happened."Brat, it looks like you're no ordinary person!" Warren said with a sneer.Fane turned to look at him before saying calmly, "Are you here to kill us?"Warren laughed out loud, and his eyes were full of mockery, "What do you think I'm doing here? Do I look like I'm here to chat?"Fane laughed. He could not believe another one turned up so soon aft
When Warren heard that, he felt incredibly exasperated. He mumbled, "It's just Shin, how could there be any trouble? Even if he has some fellow disciples with him, Presti is more than enough. They're all trash anyway."Zayne frowned, and he unleashed an incredibly strong aura that forced Warren to take a step back, "Shut up! Do you think we can afford to be careless right now? We're at the cusp of accomplishing everything right now. We have to be extremely careful. What kind of attitude is this?"Warren immediately shut up and did not dare to say anything. Zayne coldly looked at Warren, and deeply felt like Warren was not someone who could accomplish much. If it was not for the fact that he was useful, Zayne would not even bother bringing Warren through the door with him.Seymour turned to look into the distance. Gray mist filled up the skies, and no one could see the end of the horizon.There was nothing in the skies, and Seymour suddenly started to feel some worry. He was not clo
In front of an ancient stone door, two men were standing there, while another was sitting down and resting.The men who were standing had very stiff expressions on their faces. The two of them looked at each other with animosity in their eyes. It was obvious they were not friendly with each other. The man who was sitting down had his eyes shut and completely ignored the other two."Seymour! You're just the same as Desmond. You can't even get something so simple done. Desmond lost his life. I think you're about to follow suit!" Warren sneered as he mocked.Seymour's expression was dark, and he shot right back, "Warren, stop with those disgusting words of yours! Don't think I don't know what you're trying to do. You're just trying to push me down and take all the credit for yourself!"Stop joking around! You aren't smart enough to steal my credit! Even though Desmond is already dead, he still did the best he could. He was just tricked by Fane. If it was you, you wouldn't even have
Fane frowned. After he reached out to grab Presti's neck, Presti's life ended with a crack.Shin's eyes widened as he looked at Fane with fear. His savior could very well kill him!Cavill started to panic as well. He looked at Fane with alarm. Even though he was thankful that Fane saved the two of them just now, he had no way to tell what Fane would do after this. Fane slowly walked in front of them, and he did not show much emotion on his face.Cavill said in a dry voice, "Fane, you…?"Fane shook his head, "Don't panic. I won't kill you. Let's work together. It's not like only one person will be able to enter after the door opens."Shin looked at Fane with an incredibly inquisitive look. He thought about it before he said, "I… I don't want to work together. I'll give you the key as thanks for saving me. That Valley of Enlightenment doesn't sound like a good place at all. If I enter, I don't even know if I'll be able to survive."As he spoke, Shin had a bitter look on his face.
