"I don't know what to do... That kid is too powerful and none of us can defeat him. Even if he has bad intentions, we can't really stop him." Roman sighed, his expression dark. He, too, was confused about Leon's intention and felt helpless. "Hang on! We might not be able to do anything to that kid, but the Dragon Guards can! As powerful as he may be, he won't be able to fight the Dragon Corps! I think we can seek help from the Dragon Corps and get the Dragon Guards to chase him down. It's still better than waiting around here..." the second elder said thoughtfully. "Yeah, he is right! We can get the Dragon Guards involved just in case! If that kid fails to revive Jason, he may very well be the culprit who did all this. Once that happens, we can get the Dragon Guards to arrest him!" The first elder said. "Yeah, that's a good idea! I'll inform someone to seek help from the Dragon Corps!" Roman perked up and soon made up his mind. He knew that the Dragon Corps was responsible fo
Glancing at the top of the mountain, Leon soon had an idea and carried Jaxon toward it. Since there was not enough time, he had no time to combine the herbs and this would affect the effect. Hence, to make up for that, he intended to treat Jaxon on top of the mountain. The highest point of mountains often contained abundant spiritual energy so treating Jaxon there would double the effect. On top of that, he did not want to be disturbed when he was treating someone. By taking Jason to the mountain, he could avoid the Feaks from bothering him when they recovered. Now that their powers were sealed, people their ages should not be able to climb the mountain that easily before they were exhausted. This would be the safest option. The mountain was surrounded by forest and beautiful scenery. Leon glanced around and found a field to place Jaxon on. "I wonder how he's doing now..." Leon glanced at Jaxon thoughtfully. He had only examined Jaxon's injuries briefly and managed to
"Damn it! The Southern Boss hasn't changed at all. He deserves to be eliminated!" Leon narrowed his eyes maliciously. He injured the Southern Boss and caused the Spears' downfall. At the moment, the Southern Boss had lost all his influence. Leon initially thought that the Southern Boss would at least reflect on himself after what happened. If that was true, Leon was even willing to consider sparing his life. However, a tiger would never change its stripes. Not only had the Southern Boss not changed his ways, but he had also become even more vicious. His actions rivaled that of the criminals on the criminal list. As long as the Southern Boss was not eliminated, he would commit more crimes in the future. Instantly, Leon became even more certain that he needed to take the Southern Boss down. After the Southern Boss committed murder, he fled and at the moment, the priority remained to be Jaxon's life. Hence, Leon could not spare much thought on the Southern Boss. He took a
"Alright, this way his life is practically secured..." Sensing that Jaxon's heartbeat was getting stronger, Leon sighed a breath of relief. He wiped the sweat off his forehead and ceased the Six Points of Fate that aimed to revive Jaxon. Now that Jaxon's vitals were revived, his condition was improved. All that was left was to loosen the blockage in Jaxon's circulation and he should be able to regain consciousness soon. Taking a moment to catch his breath, Leon executed the Eternity Compression Method at the energy points around Jaxon's chest. The Eternity Compression Method had the effect of facilitating circulation and this was the most appropriate method to clear the blockage. Apart from that, the Green Spirit Fruit and fleeceflower root could help stimulate Jaxon's vitals and help cure internal injuries. Leon continued to absorb energy from the Spiritual Pearl to replenish the lost spiritual energy in his body while guiding the energy from the Green Spirit Fruit and fle
"Kid, we've finally found you! Where's Jaxon? What did you do to him?" Roman stared sharply at Leon. After Leon left with Jaxon, he took the elders' advices and informed the third elder to call the Dragon Corps for help. The Dragon Guards hurried over and unsealed their power. Shortly after, they worked together to search for Leon and Jaxon, attempting to find out if Leon was truly the culprit. However, at the time, Leon had already taken Jaxon up to the mountain and they could not find him anywhere. Leon's car was still parked outside the mansion, so they knew that Leon could not have gone far. Hence, the four of them and the Dragon Guards took different directions to search for Leon. In the end, the four of them found traces of Leon's footprint and traced it all the way here. "Mister Jaxon is right behind me. He's fine and I've already-" Leon pointed at Jaxon behind him and was about to inform them that Jaxon had been revived, when Romeo interrupted him. "How dare you
There's nothing to explain! Prepare to die!" Roman and the elders were pleased when they realized Leon was weak. They did not know why Leon, who was formidable just moments ago, would suddenly lose his strength, but they knew that this was the perfect opportunity for them to defeat Leon and avenge the dead. They were not about to let go of such a great opportunity. "Why you... You asked for this! Take this. Hurricane Break!" Frustrated, Leon was backed against a corner from their attacks. In the end, he decided to stop dodging and launched his most powerful technique, Hurricane Break. The spiritual energy on his palms gathered into a powerful hurricane and swarmed the Feaks. The use of Hurricane Break required a lot of spiritual energy. Since he did not have much spiritual energy left, the Hurricane Break this time was just a simpler version and not at all comparable to the one he executed earlier. Regardless, his purpose was merely to shake the Feaks off. The simply ve
Baam! Following a deafening sound, the old man's attack tore through Leon's Hurricane Break and reached Leon. "The Intermediate Almighty State!" Leon was shocked when he detected the old man's true energy. It was no wonder that he managed to counter the Hurricane Break. However, this was not the time for him to feel shocked because the aftermath of the attack was about to reach him. Leon immediately fired up his remaining spiritual energy and narrowly dodged the attack. "Great!" "As expected of a Dragon Guard! How impressive!" The Feaks were all overjoyed that the old man countered Leon's Hurricane Break. "So you are from the Dragon Corps!" Leon crawled up from the ground and realization dawned on him that the Feaks probably sought these three old men's help. "Elder Feaks, who is this kid? Why are you fighting him out of the blue?" The old man ignored Leon and turned to the Feaks in confusion. Upon receiving the call from the third elder of the Feaks, he had already
"The gods are watching! You shall meet your end now!" The Feaks stared at Leon with resentment and were all pleased that Leon was in danger. They had all witnessed Howard's power and knew he was far stronger than Leon. Hence, Leon could not possibly stand a chance. If they were not mistaken, Leon would surely perish once he took the blow and the victims would be avenged. However, what happened next shocked them all. "Stop!" One of the other old man seemed to have recalled something and shouted, before hurrying to Leon to protect Leon from Howard's attack. "Fletcher, why are you stopping me?" Howard was shocked. Not wanting his attack to injure his comrades by mistake, he immediately withdrew his true energy and ceased the attack. "Howard, this young man looks a lot like someone I know... There's something I'd like to ask him..." Fletcher explained and turned to look at Leon. "Kid, your name is Hugh Wolf, right? Are you perhaps Mister Wolf from the southern region?" Flet
"Miss Morrison, I would like to thank you for saving my life," Iris said as she approached Renee's bed. She meant to thank Renee for having saved her so narrowly from death during their encounter with one of Brahma's clones, which was why she lingered in Renee's room even after everyone left. "Miss Young, if you would truly like to return the favor, there is something you can do for me," Renee said, biting her lip as though what she was about to say was an excruciatingly difficult decision to make."What is it?" Iris asked, although she felt like she already knew what was the answer. "I would like to join you in being Leon's companions," Renee said with an expectant look. She harbored feelings toward Leon for some time now but refrained from competing against Iris and Cynthia, knowing there was no way she could win. However, she had an epiphany after her narrow escape from death and realized that there was so much more to life than competing with other women over a man. Therefor
"Nothing is impossible! It's high time you accept your fate, you old git! Take this! The Phoenix Sky Fist!" Leon merely scoffed at him. The next moment, he directed one last attack at Wulfric in the form of his most powerful move—the Phoenix Sky Fist, a sage technique belonging to the Heavenly Class!A cloud of pulsating energy charged straight toward Wulfric, without any mercy toward his cries of horror!Its sole intent was to destroy him and put an end to this battle!"No—" Wulfric let out a bloodcurdling scream as he watched, defenseless, as the Phoenix Sky Fist soared toward him. His first instinct was to leap out of harm's way, but Leon was far too powerful for him and anticipated this beforehand. Not to mention the Phoenix Sky Fist was one of the most powerful moves belonging to the Heavenly Class, and there was no possible way he could escape from its wrath.Wulfric's limp body only left a few feet off the ground when the Phoenix Sky Fist crashed into him, rendering his body
"Haha! I've finally attained the Saint State! Now it's time for you to die, you old git!" A glimmer of malice flashed through Leon's eyes. When he fixated his gaze on Wulfric's face, it sent a shudder down Wulfric's entire body, for Leon's eyes were like two pits of deep, dark, sinister hatred. "How cocky of you to say that, you twat! So what if you attained the Saint State? You haven't even got time to harness your powers yet, so you're no match for me! Take this!" Wulfric scoffed, taking no notice of Leon's threats at all. Then, without another moment's hesitation, he sent a powerful surge of energy pummeling Leon's way, intending to destroy Leon while his defenses were low!"He's right. So what if he's attained the Saint State? He can't even control his powers properly," the rest of the Chanters all agreed, and felt rather relieved by this. The glimmer of hope that ignited briefly within Pierre, Zach, and the rest was immediately doused after hearing the Chanters' words. Wulf
"Hahaha! This ends here—once and for all!" Wulfric broke out into a manic cackle of laughter upon seeing Pierre's defeat. The defeat of Pierre, Zach, and his two lackeys had no doubt instilled a newfound triumph in him, for the four of them combined were his greatest opponents thus far, and now that he rendered them powerless, there was no longer anyone in his way!Not even Leon, Percival, Alastair, or the rest of their comrades could defeat him! He and the Chanters would go on, unstopped, to dominate the world!One could only imagine his ecstasy at finally fulfilling his dream at long last!"All hail Master Chanter!""All hail Master Chanter!""All hail Master Chanter!" Aiken and the rest of the Chanters erupted into thunderous applause and cheers of sheer elation. "Oh no!""We can't possibly stand a chance!" Percival, Alastair, and the rest on the good side felt their hearts sink at the thought of their impending doom. Although they outnumbered the Chanters by a significant m
Gulp!Taking advantage of the moment, Leon decisively took out a Holy Spirit Pill and swallowed it. Initially, he intended to use an Essential Detox Pill to help Pierre, Zach, and the other two Semi-Saint State fighters counteract the poison. However, with Pierre injured by Wulfric and Zach along with the other two severely wounded and out of combat, even if he cured them, their side was still doomed to defeat.In this desperate situation, he could only take a gamble. He hoped that, with the breakthrough signs he felt in his martial arts bottleneck, the Holy Spirit Pill would help him break through the sage arts barrier or raise his power level to the Great Crossing Phase. This might be their only chance at victory."Mister Wolf, as long as there's life, there's hope. I'll try my best to hold off Wulfric. You must escape now and find a way to avenge us later."Pierre, enduring his injuries and the poison, stood up with a determined look on his face. He knew that their side was alre
"You're courting death!"Wulfric, enraged by Leon's fierce attack and the slaying of Central Boss, had no choice but to halt his assault on Pierre and the other three momentarily. He turned and unleashed a powerful palm strike, its overwhelming force aimed squarely at Leon's Phoenix Sky Fist.Boom!The collision between Leon's Phoenix Sky Fist and Wulfric's attack was explosive. In an instant, Wulfric's strike shattered Leon's Phoenix Sky Fist, and its residual force hurtled toward Leon."Not good!"Leon’s expression changed drastically as he rapidly tried to evade. However, with Wulfric's Saint State power level, evading was futile. No matter where he ran, he was unable to get out of the attack range. The residual force of Wulfric's true energy struck Leon, sending him flying and crashing heavily to the ground.Cough! Cough!As Leon hit the ground, a wave of intense pain surged through his chest, causing him to cough up two mouthfuls of blood. It was clear he suffered significa
Whoosh!Compared to Percival and Alastair's heavy hearts, Leon remained relatively calm. In the past, he killed Poisonwielder and specifically crafted a potent antidote, the Essential Detox Pill, to counteract Reaper's Breath.He happened to have a few dozen of these pills on him. Though Pierre and the others were poisoned by Reaper's Breath, as long as Leon could get the antidote to them in time, they still stood a chance to win.With this in mind, Leon did not waste any time. He stopped fighting with Central Boss, leaped up, and quickly rushed toward Pierre and the others to deliver the antidote."Leon, are you planning to run away? Well, do you think it's going to be that easy?" Central Boss misunderstood Leon's actions, thinking he intended to escape. Given how much he hated Leon, he was not going to let Leon get away so easily.Without a second thought, Central Boss dashed forward, resolutely blocking Leon once again. With Wulfric having reversed the situation and forcing Pie
"Pierre, you have pushed me to this! Since that's the case, don't blame me for what I'm going to do next! You all can go to hell!" Wulfric's expression turned grim when he saw the Chanter fighters in a dire and dangerous situation. He knew he had to end this battle quickly to avoid significant casualties among the Chanter descendants.Thus, he decided not to hold back. He waved his two hands, releasing two clouds of white mist that surged forward, engulfing Pierre, Zach, and the other two. The white mist transformed into a flurry of powder, like a shower of flowers, enveloping the four of them."What's this?""This is bad, it's poison!"Realizing the unusual nature of the white powder, Pierre and Zach were alarmed.Immediately, the four of them held their breath and swiftly retreated, trying to escape the range of the white mist and powder. Unfortunately, it was too late! The white powder and mist seeped everywhere, and being too close to Wulfric, they already inhaled a signific
"How dare a loser like you be so arrogant? I'll teach you to be humble!"Leon sneered contemptuously. Central Boss clashed with him twice before, each time ending with Central Boss being injured and fleeing. Thus, Leon did not take his attack seriously at all.Without hesitation, he pointed a finger and unleashed the Advanced Earth Class sage technique, Earthly Plunder. Sharp and fierce energy condensed at his fingertip, roaring as it met Central Boss's attack head-on!Bang!Leon's Earthly Plunder clashed solidly with Central Boss's Soul-Piercing Claw in a violent collision. However, unlike previous encounters, this time Leon's technique did not break through Central Boss's attack; instead, it was shattered by it!Not only that! The Dragon Pill he recently took did not fully manifest itself yet, so not only did Central Boss's Soul-Piercing Claw shatter Leon's Earthly Plunder but also sent him staggering back.Leon struggled to regain his footing, retreating three or four steps be
