As Jasper stepped forward, the two elders' expressions turned grim. It was clear that they were afraid of Jasper.Not only were they afraid of Jasper, but they were also afraid of the Magic Mountain that was backing him up. After all, all sword masters from Magic Mountain were the most intimidating, even among the sects."You brat! Let me make this clear again. Moste Magicke holds no grudge against Magic Mountain! If you insist on going against us, don't blame us for being ruthless!" Damien warned Jasper with a stern voice.Jasper sighed and shook his head in annoyance. "Magic Mountain… Why do you guys keep bringing up my sect? Are you afraid of us retaliating? Don't worry. My elder told me that he wouldn't care nor avenge me if I ever lost in a fight or got killed since it would be too humiliating for him. So, you two can rest easy. As long as you are capable of killing me, Magic Mountain won't cause trouble for you."The two elders exchanged glances and wondered if what Jasper sa
Sword Art Three was otherwise known as Hell Execution.As this terrifying sword technique unfolded, the space was immediately isolated by the sword energy. At the same time, the two elders were trapped within a prison realm.This prison realm was filled with nothing but gray.However, the elders didn't have time to consider that fact as countless swords charged straight at them as soon as they were trapped.Damien panicked when he saw the countless swords baying for their blood."Damn it! We're trapped!" he shrieked as he swung his sword frantically, trying to block the incoming swords.The other elder immediately formed a Six Fires Thunder, and the lighting soon became a shield and surrounded him. However, even this couldn't fend off Jasper's Hell Execution.Alas, one of the sword shadows pierced through the elder's shoulder in just a few seconds. At that moment, the elder groaned in pain but had no time to tend to the wound as he continued to defend himself desperately.Meanw
It was Nox!When Nox appeared, he simply waved his hand, and the black ghostly claw Magicke had summoned shattered in midair.Looking at the scene, Magicke stiffened, as well as the other elders who stood beside him.No one had expected that Nox would block such a mighty strike from Magicke.After effortlessly dispelling Magicke's attack, Nox turned to Jasper and said, "Step back, Jasper. I'll handle them from here."Jasper was taken aback. "Nox? Are you stepping in? This old trash doesn't deserve to fight you!"Nox smiled and replied, "They are here because of me, so just leave it to me."Seeing that Nox insisted, Jasper was still somewhat unwilling but eventually nodded. Then, he looked at Magicke and taunted, "You're out of luck now. Nox is going to deal with you. Let's see if you can survive in the end!" With that, he stepped back.On the other hand, Magicke was furious!After all, He was one of Moste Magicke's great patriarchs. He had lived for nearly three hundred years,
After Nox revealed his identity, all eyes were immediately fixed on him!The Six Great Sects had come out of seclusion with the sole purpose of dealing with Nox. However, never in their wildest dreams did they expect Nox to actually show up!As the disciples of the three sects stared at Nox, none of them noticed that a group of beautiful women was also secretly watching the scene unfold at a hidden corner of Ninedragon Peak.It was the women of Grand Weaver's Workshop!"Wow! Is that the legendary Lord Nox? He's so handsome!" one of the women gazed at Nox with dreamy eyes."Yes! Not only is he handsome, but he's got style too!""I can't believe Lord Nox is such a handsome man!""Felicity, you said you've seen Lord Nox before. Is this handsome guy the one you were talking about?" one of the women asked Felicity.Felicity nodded. "Didn't I tell you before? Lord Nox is super handsome, but none of you believed me. Now, you finally see it for yourselves.""He's so handsome!""He's
At that moment, Nox suddenly struck!With a casual wave of his hand, he unleashed the Forbidden Arts, Heaven's Demise. Then, a ten-meter-long sword materialized and slashed through the air.Not only did the sword cleave through the giant hand, but it also seemed as if it had split the sky into two."Oh my God! Lord Nox is so powerful."As they witnessed Nox's overwhelming power, the disciples of the three sects widened their eyes in disbelief."I never imagined that Lord Nox is even more terrifying than Jasper. No wonder he's the Great Lord of Faeast!" Shatterheart couldn't help but exclaim in shock as well.On the other hand, Calahad's face turned pale when he saw the scene. Recalling that he wanted to challenge Nox one-on-one, he felt ridiculous.As Nox's Forbidden Arts appeared, Magicke's expression turned grimmer."Forbidden Arts? I never expected you to be capable of using Faeast's Forbidden Arts. However, you are not the only one who knows how to use it!"With a shout, M
Following that, an enormous ghost elephant emerged from behind Nox.The Ultimate Moon Elephant Manual had the energy of Nine Yang and Yin.Ever since absorbing the auspicious energy in Snowground, this was the first time Nox used this extreme technique.As it appeared, Nox's figure resembled that of a god. Then, he threw a punch at the massive dark hand! The giant elephant roared fiercely.Although the Merciless Hand was a forbidden technique from Youngwood, it seemed weak against the overwhelming power of Nox's Ultimate Moon Elephant Manual Technique.A massive explosion resounded throughout Ninedragon Peak. Not only was the Merciless Hand shattered in midair, but the terrifying aftershock caused the entire mountain to tremble violently!In the meantime, Magicke was sent flying through the air, and he spat out a mouthful of blood."Master Magicke!" The other three patriarchs shouted in horror as they saw him spitting blood. The crowd was utterly dumbfounded as well.No one had
Right from the start, Nox activated the Ascended Immortal technique, showing just how intense his killing intent had become! The Mousses had dared to cross the Greenshade clan, and worse, they had provoked the one person he held in the highest regard, his grandmother. There was no way he wouldn't kill them for that. As he activated the terrifying power of the Ascended Immortal Technique, his entire body was enveloped in a dazzling white light. At this moment, he was like a god of war. Waves of Top Legend Realm aura exploded from him like a torrential flood, and a stream of Top Legend Realm intent shook the heavens and distorted the air around him. Even Magicke, who had reached the pinnacle of Eight Gates' Prisms, couldn't stop the involuntary twitch of his eye."How… How can his aura be this strong? No… This isn't Top Legend Realm aura. This is supreme aura! Could it be..."A terrifying thought flashed through Magicke's mind. When Nox's supreme aura surged, it covered the ent
Calahad, whose face was ghostly pale, trembled. He stammered, "It's all over… we're all going to die today!"Another terrified disciple let out a panicked cry. "Did you hear what Lord Nox said? He's going to kill everyone! Does that mean… he'll kill us too?" A monk from the House of Enlightenment chimed in with a quivering voice.After Nox mercilessly executed the elder from the path of sorcery, he turned his cold gaze toward Magicke and the others. His voice was as sharp as a blade. "It's your turn now. I've already told you, all of you are going to die today!"His killing intent was so thick it seemed to envelop the entire Ninedragon Peak's palace. Upon hearing that Nox wanted all of them dead, Magicke's face twitched violently."Lord Nox, are you really going to start a war with the six sects? Do you realize what you're doing? If this battle continues, the entire martial world of Faeast could collapse because of you!" he shouted sternly.Nox only laughed wildly. "Collapse?
The talismans were Magic Mountain's Forbidden Art, and Nox had fused them with Ultimate Sun Dragon Manual. Nox's mentors back in Mystia had taught him the Sovereign Seal earlier than expected.Their goal was simple. If Nox became the Sovereign, he could use the seal to command all the natural energy around him. If he didn't become the Sovereign, he would teach the Sovereign how to use the seal.The Sovereign Seal was a Saintly technique and the most ancient technique around. It was stronger than a Celestial technique.A golden seal brighter than the sun slowly rose into the air. It was the Sovereign Seal.As it appeared, natural energy gathered around it. The energy flew into the relics Brundela took from Faeast. Within a museum not open to the public, a bronze sword started to tremble as natural energy flowed into it. That got the attention of a professor."That sword belonged to Faeast's Emperor Elijah! What is going on?"A silhouette came out of the sword, and his aura was maj
Back in the navy command center, Fergus got the drone footage of Brundela's latest development. There were a few generals from the Nox Army with him. They could see that the monsters in the capital were far stronger than the ones they took out."It's a pity the capital is too densely populated. We have the weapons, but we can't use them." Fergus slammed the table in frustration. Even if the capital were to fall into enemy hands and the people torn apart by the monsters, Fergus could not order his men to fire at the capital, or things would be bad for them.Fergus could only open fire if the monsters were in a no man's land."Commander Parrish, the lord has orders. We are to keep the waters guarded. Once the capital's crisis is over, we are to make our way to the port and give humanitarian aid," a Nox Army general said telepathically. He just got Nox's orders."Is that so? Then Nox can stop this crisis." Fergus' eyes shone. He had no idea what Nox was planning, but he was the Sovere
Demons were walking the lands of Brundela. Legendary creatures were roaming the streets as if the end of days were here. The resurrected monsters were causing chaos everywhere. When the Titans showed themselves, despair washed over Brundela.There were too many monsters running around. Even after the Twilight Order and Ice Temple cultivators sent out everyone they had, it still wasn't enough to stop these creatures. The monsters went straight to the council hall, and so did the Titans.The Ice Temple Lord created a Magic Ice Formation and kept using Forbidden Arts and mystical artifacts to fend off the enemies. He had already done his best."You have to do something, Nine-State Lord. I can't hold on much longer!" the Ice Temple Lord said telepathically.Though monsters were about, they were not a threat to the Ice Temple Lord. he could leave anytime he wanted, but he had a deal with Nox. If he were to desert the battlefield, he would face a hell far worse than he could imagine late
Their targets were the relics around the altars. The moment the whirlpool showed up, the black energy conjured black walls and kept Brundela on lockdown, cutting off all communications.Possessed by evil spirits, gods from ancient civilizations came back to life. In the underground graveyard, the dead came bursting out of their coffins, and skeletons with phantom flames flickering around them charged at the holy knights and James' secret agents.Nothing more needed to be said. The holy knights' leader led the charge. The other knights resolved to fight to the death as they battled the skeleton gods.James and his secret agents fired off at the enemies, but the bullets did nothing to the skeletons. All they managed was to light a big spark. Only grenades and howitzers could deal damage to them, and even then, the damage was light.The battle was fierce. Though the knights did not fear death, they were still weaker than the prehistoric gods. These skeletons were nigh invincible, and
Nox was hovering higher than the Ice Temple Lord, and he got everyone's attention."Who's that?""It's a Faeastian!""My God, it's the Nine-State Lord!" Nox was known throughout Faeast and the world. Brundela's council members had recognized him the moment he showed up. They had nothing but fear for gods, yet Nox was the strongest man in the Mortal World, so they respected him.The clouds in Brundela's skies were hanging heavily over the ground, and the icy aura they radiated was making everyone shiver. Winter seemed to have come early for Brundela. The temperature was dipping fast.Back in the control center, intelligence agents were watching the surveillance footage closely, and they noticed the altar. The Twilight Order and Ice Temple cultivators were there, strengthening the altars' seal the best they could. There were soldiers guarding the altar as well.For some reason, the secret agents had a feeling something bad was going to happen. Murphy's Law, as they said.Suddenly,
A sliver of energy flew out of the puppet and gathered natural energy around it. Then, the temperature rose at a blistering rate. Fortunately, Bard's reminder came just in time, and Vermilion Bird was prepared for this. She led her team away from the spot.A pillar of fire engulfed the building, and heat waves shot off in every direction, lethal and deadly. The light eventually faded, and all buildings in a few hundred yards were razed to the ground.If Vermilion Bird had killed the puppet without thinking just now, she would have lost all her men and suffered serious injuries. "That bitch! I'm going to make her into a human swine one day! I'll give her hell!" she cursed.Bard gasped. 'Yeah, women can be really terrifying.' Not one General was a normal person.This incident didn't escape Nox, of course. He saw it through his divine sense. "Heh, you can't fight the flow of history? You say that, Aphrodite, but you've done the same thing more than once. Schemes and plots when your ey
Aphrodite was a master manipulator. She knew the weaknesses of Nox's underlings, and she praised Bard, "At least you know where you stand, Bard. You never overreach. Though we failed to make you one of us, I still thought it'd be a shame to kill you."Bard smiled. "Oh, you're such an actor, Ms. Mousse. You know why we don't like you? Queenie is a genuine lady, just like our lord. You're far inferior to her. And don't flatter yourself. Of course, I know where I stand. I can't even reach the pinnacle of martial arts, let alone cultivation."No matter how smart I am, my lack of talents holds me back. I can never be made an important leader." He was only spared because he couldn't become a threat to the Mousses.Nox didn't use schemes because he didn't need them. Absolute power could trump any plot.Vermilion Bird clenched her teeth. "What is the meaning of this? The lord knows that the bitch is here?"Bard shook his head. Vermilion Bird was a smart woman, but Aphrodite made her lose
Aphrodite felt nothing but sorrow, and Vermilion Bird burst into laughter. "I expected nothing less from these people. Your men are just like their employers. Hey, knights, you guys want to find out more about Faeast martial arts? See those Mousse guys? They're masters. Deal with them."Vermilion Bird gave her orders. She knew these people would escape the moment she showed up. The knights flew off, going after the escaped Mousses. The Mousses were a family of warriors, while these knights were cultivators, to an extent. They wore mystical artifacts, and the Mousses' guys didn't have something like that.The battle was fierce but short. The Mousses' powerhouses were taken out, and the rest were dealt with by the Shadow Division."And now only you're left. Interesting, isn't it? Karma always bites you in the ass. You betrayed my lord, and now your men betray you. You deserve this," Vermilion Bird cursed."Yes, I deserve this, but as long as he wants to be the Nine-State Lord, then w
'The beating heart of this land?' The woman's underlings looked grim. They were supposed to be the master tacticians here. Yet, Nox played them like a cheap kazoo. 'He's a far better tactician than we expected!'Nox began his counterattack not long after the Ocean of Death incident. This woman was none other than Aphrodite, Nox's old flame. When she saw Brundela's fate stabilizing, she knew right then that things had gotten out of her hands."Tell the Mousses in Eropa to retreat right away. There is no need to stay here any longer. He's not attacking us because he's waiting for us to do the same. The moment our men try to start anything, he'll swoop in and take them all out. "No one can beat him if he decides to go all the way. Not even me," said Aphrodite.Suddenly, the Mousses' powerhouse noticed something. "I sense bloodlust. Who goes there? Show yourself!" The powerhouses unsheathed their weapons and stood around Aphrodite, protecting her.A group of black silhouettes appeare
