"Dammit, Top Legend Realms?" Oldsmoke's face fell.Redsleeve looked shocked as well. "Who are you? Why did you barge into this place?" Oldsmoke asked, mustering his courage."I'm here for Greenshade. Anyone who's not him better get out of my way or die!" said Yorhar coldly."What? You're looking for Master Nox?" Oldsmoke's expression froze. He looked at Yorhar and the Top Legend Realms behind him. "He's not here. You've got the wrong place," said Oldsmoke.A Top Legend Realm behind Yorhar harrumphed. "You talk too much." Then, he leaped ahead as a dangerous flash of light glinted in the air.Oldsmoke was not weak by any means, but he was only a Legend Realm. So, he had no choice but to give it his best shot when faced with a Top Legend Realm. Thus, he hastily shoved all his power into his palms and lashed out, strongwind howling around him.Alas, the Top Legend Realm lashed his palm out at the same time. Their palms clashed, and strongwind roared. Oldsmoke bled from his nose and
When Keith checked that they were mostly fine, he raised his head and looked at the Top Legend Realm and Yorhar angrily. At the same time, Bard, Steely, and Madison warily left the estate.When they saw Redsleeve and Oldsmoke bleeding, their faces turned angry.The aura of Tiger Demon swirled around Keith. "Who are you? How dare you cause trouble here?" He was already burly, to begin with. So, he looked like a particularly large brute coupled with the avatar of a tiger behind him."I've heard of your name, Supreme Tiger. We meet at last." Horned stepped forth.Keith looked at Horne coldly when he realized that someone had recognized him. "You're from a family?""Good eye, Commander Moon. Wilheimer Horne, member of a southwest family."Keith's expression turned icy. Bard and Madison looked solemn as well. After the battle of Old Dragon's Peak, the Philosophers daren't pull any tricks. That could only mean that Wilheimer's family was not in the ranks of Philosophers."Hah, so you
Yorhar's aura was vast and imposing, and he seemed to think of everyone around here as dirt beneath his shoes.Steely clenched his fists before demanding sharply, "Who are these people? How dare they try to attack Master Nox?"Bard shook his head. "I don't know, but they mean business since they have come all the way out here."Steely's face fell upon hearing his answer. Just then, an explosion rattled the air. Keith's fist had slammed into his enemy, causing the Top Legend Realm to spew blood as they crashed against the ground like a cannonball.Due to the turn of events, the other Top Legend Realm was going to lose as well. He kept swinging his saber but failed to land even a single hit. Keith could not be stopped.He lost focus for a moment, and Keith lashed out at him, striking the enemy's chest with his palm. The Top Legend Realm barreled backward, blood spurting from his nose and mouth.His subordinate's defeat made Wilheimer's face fall. "Take them on, men. We'll slaughter
"I'll say this once: tell Greenshade to come out here and die, or I'll kill all of you!" demanded Yorhar arrogantly. He did not think these weaklings were a match for him."The lord doesn't need to waste his time on bastards like you!" Keith roared. He shoved all his strength into Tiger Demon, making the avatar double in size. Then, he pressed his hands down, and the avatar attacked.Yorhar sneered. "You fool." He stepped forth, and a fist—made with black magick—flew toward the tiger avatar. A loud explosion rattled the air, and the fist punched through the tiger avatar. Keith spewed more blood. He lost once more.Although he was a Third Layer Firmament, he was still no match for Yorhar. After all, there was a reason why Yorhar was famed for being his sect's genius."Still not telling me where Greenshade is? Then, you'll die today!" Yorhar was a bloodthirsty man. The black magick around him morphed into a huge sword as it tore through the air, hurtling toward Keith and everyone beh
Augustus' technique was merciless and imposing. The moment he attacked, a wave of sword energy swung down on Yorhar.Yorhar did not expect that sudden attack. However, he knew that Augustus had just recently ascended to Top Legend Realm. Thus, he made hand seals. The black magick swirling around him morphed into a pair of fists, flying toward Augustus."You think you can kill me, maggot?" Yorhar was a Five Mountains, making him a true genius in Moste Magick. The people there respected him both for his talent and position. That was why he would not accept such an insult—an insult where a recently ascended Top Legend Realm dared to challenge him.Augustus slashed away at the oncoming fists, his sword energy falling down like the silvery moon crashing into Earth. It sliced through the fists, making them explode.Homer noticed Augustus' powerful mastery of the sword. He felt his lips downturn at this discovery. "Successor, the boy is a master swordsman. Please be careful."The genius
"Viper Swarm!" Slivers of black, rampaging energy spilled forth from Blacksnake, and they merged and morphed into six snakes, all lashing out at Augustus.The boy was not scared. He swung his sword, and seven slivers of sword energy cut through space, rattling the battlefield.The sword energies clashed with the black snakes, and the gigantic creatures were destroyed, disappearing into thin air. One final sliver of sword energy charged at Yorhar.It moved too quickly for Yorhar to react. The energy was inches away from Yorhar, and his face darkened. He could not believe a teenager had defeated him.Just when the energy was about to kill Yorhar, someone roared, "No one hurts the successor, you brat!"A gigantic black hand appeared from nowhere and clasped the sword energy. Homer made his move. The sliver of sword energy was deflected, but some of its remnants grazed Yorhar's cheek.Yorhar brought his hand to his face, feeling something warm and sticky against his fingers. He becam
A pale-faced Keith looked at the Pavilion of Regality's members. "Moste Magicke, and now Pavilion of Regality? The biggest sects have shown themselves.""To attack the lord?" a worried Bard asked."I'm not sure, but the fact these people are here will certainly shake up Faeast's martial arts world," said Keith.The Six Great Sects, leaders of the martial arts world, rarely sent their members out of their territories. They represented the top of the martial arts world. Yet, four out of six sects had sent their members out. If the news got around, it would shake the country's martial arts world.Bard, however, was worried that these people might be here to attack Nox. If that came to pass, Augustus alone could not get them out of this crisis. He might be powerful, but he would have to face two sects alone.Besides Yorhar, the people from the Pavilion of Regality radiated the air of Top Legend Realms, and their auras were powerful.Everyone's attention turned to Yorhar when he deman
Augustus didn't bother answering Calahad's taunt. Instead, he intoned coldly, "Shut it and fight!" Determination and ruthlessness laced his tone.Calahad chuckled. "Very well. If you seek death, then that is what I shall grant." He pointed at the air, and space itself shivered. A beam of crimson light shot at the boy. Calahad had made his move.Calahad was obviously far stronger than Yorhar. Plus, people from his sect cultivated strange, bizarre, but powerful manuals. Even the air itself was buzzing in the presence of the crimson beam.The beam was already inches away from the boy, but Augustus did not move. He held his sword with both hands and shouted, "I'll cut you down!"White sword energy merged with Dragonflight. The boy swung his sword down on the crimson beam, and an explosion happened. The beam was sliced open."Huh. You should feel proud, stopping that beam with your current power level. Alas, you're still on the lowest rung of the Top Legend Realm ladder." Calahad sneer
They waited and waited, but there was no movement. "Nox, it looks like Master Zeller doesn't plan to come out. Since he's so rude, I'll force him out!"Cassian began to set Saint power ablaze. With the energy precisely aimed at the hidden talisman hiding in the fortress, he burned the talisman. The ghosts imprisoned within the fortress came pouring out. Millions of ghosts appeared. It was an exceedingly rare sight. The number of ghosts was enough to instantly overwhelm a cultivator at Pinnacle Realm. If it were just Aphrodite, Queenie, and Nineve, they would not have been able to control that many souls. Cassian wanted to help out, but he was too powerful. He would kill the ghosts, and that was not the effect he wanted. "Leave it to me, Grandpa."Nox stepped forward. In an instant, the aura of a Human Sovereign surged from him, welcoming a righteous and natural energy. The agitated ghosts swiftly calmed down. "Everyone, I am Lord Nox of Faeast. Today, I will ensure ju
In some ways, Cassian's fame far surpassed Nox's. Nox was tasked with stabilizing the nation. While even distant countries beyond Faeast’s borders had heard of him, their knowledge was limited to a few of his victories. Cassian, on the other hand, gained his fame through bloodshed. He roamed the world, leaving chaos in his wake across numerous nations. Even now, the mere mention of his name struck fear into many. For example, Cassian was the one to depose Spiajan's king, along with the entire royal family. Once the king was killed, Spiajan no longer had a monarchy. When the middle-aged man learned that the old git who had split his body into half was none other than Cassian, the man who had slaughtered through his country, he fell silent, gripped by fear. "Speak! Keep boasting. Why are you all silent now? What happened to the threats?" Cassian loftily stared at the group of elites. In his eyes, they were just trash. "Whether you're Cassian Greenshade or Lord Nox, you can't ju
The elites were all panic-stricken, and they immediately ordered their bodyguards to come forward to protect them.Accepting their fates, hundreds of bodyguards rushed forward, took out their submachine guns, aimed them at Nox and his group, and pulled the triggers.Gunshots were being fired wildly. However, Cassian blocked all the bullets off with his bronze-red fiery momentum.Presently, Cassian's hair had turned bronze-red, and the muscles all over his body were pumped.Upon witnessing this sight before their very eyes, the elites all thought that Cassian resembled a real Super Saiyan who emerged straight out of an animated series."Die!"As Cassian pressed his palm down, an unparalleled force descended from the sky. Instantly, hundreds of bodyguards were all crushed into a pulp. As a matter of fact, the momentum flattened their bodies even more than it did if a car ran over them.The elites gasped in shock. In their mind, they couldn't help but wonder if Cassian was actually
"That's right! We must severely punish these traitors once Master Zeller kills this group of Faeastians!" a group of elites cursed in unison. As they spoke, a near-rabid desire surfaced in their scarlet eyes.Up to this very moment, they were still thinking of eliminating the insiders. After all, only after getting rid of the insiders could they easily conduct restructuring and divide their shares of power again.Presently, politicians from the neighboring nations also informed everyone that their country's fleet was on their way and would arrive shortly to provide assistance."Damn these Faeastians! We can't spare them like this! Let's kill them and refine violent energy using their spirits!""Agree! These guys are so powerful, so refining violent energy with their souls definitely will be a great supplement for us!"Once again, one by one, the eyes of these elites turned rapacious as they gazed at the gradually approaching group of people like a group of hungry hyenas staring at
The group crossed the battlefield and arrived at a resort built on the island. Everywhere they looked, luxury cars filled the place, and grand mansions lined the area.At the center of these private residences stood their target. The air was thick with violent energy, and dark clouds loomed ominously above. The moment Cassian arrived, he could sense the presence of vengeful spirits."There were many innocent lives that died here," Cassian said to Nox. "That's strange. Why didn't that cultivator cleanse this place when he had such huge power?"Nox thought for a moment before replying, "Perhaps leaving these vengeful spirits here is part of their plan too."Cassian took in a sharp breath as he realized what Nox was implying."If my guess is correct, this person is deliberately feeding the spirits to sustain the elites. While it may grant them eternal youth and extend their lifespans, the cost is that they will become inhumane. What a cruel method. He enslaved the elites, allowing hi
As Nox and Cassian exchanged glances, they both got the same idea."It looks like that mastermind is an evil cultivator.""There are many sinister cultivation techniques that can grant ordinary people eternal youth, immortality, or even cultivation. However, such things are not obtained out of thin air. They are stolen from the others. During the internal turmoil in Faeast, evil cultivators were everywhere. It took me, Sariel, and Magic Mountain a huge effort to get rid of most of them. When they were unable to find a foothold in Faeast, they fled to Southsea."Nox added, "Even so, they continued to target Faeast, wreaking havoc along the coastal regions. The situation grew so dire that His Majesty had to personally deal with them. After I took over, I utilized Vermilion Bird's intelligence network to eliminate almost all of the evil cultivators. It seems that the surviving ones have fled even further to cause trouble."Faeast was a righteous country, so there was no room for evil
Just like that, an entire army was completely wiped out by two people! Moreover, the duo didn't seem to be using any effort either.This was a massacre.Nox toyed with the artifact in his hand. The palm-sized, black object caused the temperature of the island to drop, yet Nox didn't seem to be affected at all.However, the commander was almost frozen to death.Cassian walked over and took the artifact from Nox's hand. After examining it closely, he frowned and said, "This is the legendary Black Ice Stone, a thing that had long been thought to be extinct.""Indeed. This is remarkable. Without the use of any technique, it can disrupt one's senses just by placing it on the ground. Once it comes into contact with positive energy, it'll release Yin energy. What a fascinating item," said Nox."True. It's a pity that it can't be combined with other materials though. Otherwise, it could have been a sacred artifact." Cassian nodded.Nox shook his head in exasperation. "Even if it could b
The enemy commander waved his hand to give an order.In that split second, dozens of men raised their swords and charged toward Nox.Cassian was too intimidating to them, and he would wipe out the entire army by himself. Thus, they decided to capture Nox in order to threaten Cassian."Raise your hands and surrender immediately!" the enemy commander said in broken Faeastian.However, what unsettled the enemy commander was that neither Cassian nor the group of spectators in the distance seemed to care about Nox's current situation.Seeing that Nox didn't respond, one of the enemy leaders shouted, "Why are you not moving? Are you scared? I told you to raise your hands and surrender now!"Nox tilted his head and glanced at him with disdain. Then, he slowly raised one of his hands."Are you deaf? I said two hands!" the enemy leader roared.`Buzz!At that moment, an invisible force swept through everyone, causing hundreds of people to be lifted into the air over three thousand fee
Nineve was shocked, but Aphrodite was used to it. "He rose to fame during the latest crisis of Faeast. You have to be crueler than everyone else if you want to live during that era," she said.It was a dog-eat-dog world back then, and every cultivator was a beast. The team eventually arrived at the spot, and the Marines were already interrogating the captives."Milord, these are units from the coastal nations nearby. They're not to be underestimated," a soldier reported to Nox. Even if these people were not remnants of the Three-Eyed Clan, this was still a national issue.The soldiers tried to ask the captives about the Three-Eyed Clan, but they knew nothing about it. Nox said, "Don't waste your time. They're not big enough to know that kind of intel.""What should we do with these people?" The Marines wondered if they should take the captives back to the ship. Cassian used his soul technique to check the captives' memories and killed them all."Yeah, they might be official units,
