"Oh, no!" The Southern Boss paled. He knew that Leon was formidable and had a defensive tool in the Peak Almighty State, meaning he was no match for Leon. Not daring to take the blow, he backed away swiftly in an attempt to dodge Leon's attack. However, Leon's Phantom Steps was far too swift, and no matter how hard he tried, he simply could not get away and could only watch as Leon got closer. "Master, where are you? Come help me!" At the last moment, the SOuthern Boss shouted while dodging Leon's attack. "Master?" Leon was slightly confused by this when he heard a roar from afar. Suddenly, a figure leaped into the air and landed in the center of the field. It was an old man dressed in black and wore a vicious-looking demon mask. His presence was overbearing to the extent that one could instantly sense danger from his aura alone. Anyone could tell that he was no ordinary person. The old man in black swung his hard and something the size of a football flew toward Leon.
While Brahma showed himself, the Southern Boss quickly dodged Leon's attack and arrived by Brahma's side. "Master Brahma, you're finally here. Thank the gods for that!" the Southern Boss said excitedly and sighed an inward breath of relief. Ever since he was rescued by Hades, he reached an agreement with Hades to seek Brahma's help because of how powerful the Potential Energy Forces were. After trying for some days, Hades finally managed to reach Brahma and connected him with the Southern Boss. When the Southern Boss plotted to rescue Rodney with the Western Boss's help, he aimed to destroy the Thompsons and capture Leon's confidantes as well. However, Leon was resourceful and cunning. To avoid any trouble and to find a scapegoat to shoulder all the blame for the destruction of the Thompsons, the Southern Boss asked Brahma to come to the southern region to take Leon down. This was the safest plan and reality proved that he was right in doing so. Leon's level reached the P
"Brahma, how dare you take the life of a Platinum Dragon Guard? You're to pay for this!" Leon stared at Scott's head, itching to charge up Brahma to make him pay. However, he recalled seeking the Dragon Corps in the southern region for help, yet the Dragon Guards were nowhere to be found. On top of that, Scott was somehow killed by Brahma and this baffled him. Therefore, he suppressed his rage and did not attack immediately. "Platinum Dragon Guards, my ass! They're just hounds working for the Dragon Corps. I didn't just kill one on my visit to the Dragon Corps just now," Brahma sneered. According to what he was told, Asmodeus and the Poisonwielder were both eliminated by the Dragon Corps in the southern region. However, the Southern Boss and Hades both guessed that Leon perhaps had something to do with their deaths and that Leon aided the Dragon Guards' mission of eliminating Asmodeus and the Poisonwielder. This meant that Leon worked with the Dragon Guards to eliminate A
"Mister Wolf, Brahma is powerful and vicious. You won't stand a chance against him. I think you need to get out of here," Levi suppressed his sorrow and tried to talk Leon out of fighting Brahma. Though Leon managed to defeat both the Southern Boss and the Western Boss on his own, putting the Thompsons at an advantage, Brahama was in the Semi-Saint State. This meant that he was a few times stronger than the Southern Boss and the Western Boss. Although Leon had a defensive tool in the Peak Almighty State, he could not possibly defeat Brahma. Besides, Brahma would be aided by the Southern Boss and the Western Boss as well. Given their combined strength, even a martial artist in the Semi-Saint State would struggle to win, not to mention Leon. Levi did not think that Leon could defeat all three of them on his own unless there was a miracle. At the moment, running seemed to be the only option. "Yeah!""Mister Wolf, it's time to give up.""Run now and leave us behind~"Ang
"Mister Wolf, the enemy is too strong. Now is not the time for you to be stubborn! If you don't leave now, there won't be enough time."...Seeing as Leon refused to leave, Angus and the others attempted to talk some sense into him but were soon interrupted by Leon. "Uncle Angus, Levi, I've made up my mind. Don't bother trying to convince me. I know what I'm doing!" Leon said with determination. "Well," Their hearts sank with helplessness. "Leon, the Thompsons dragged you into this mess. You must be careful!" Roanne sighed worriedly. She was an innocent woman and could not tell how dire the situation was for Leon and the Thompsons. However, based on the others' reaction, she could tell that Leon had merely a slim chance of winning against Brahma, the Western Boss, and the Southern Boss. Since Leon refused to leave them behind and run, she could only pray that Leon could create a miracle and defeat the three of them again. Otherwise, they were all doomed. "Yeah!""Leo
"Western Boss, you're too kind. Leon's too resourceful and I wouldn't challenge him if I'm not fully prepared," The Southern Boss sneered and turned to Brahma, "Master Brahma, Leon's too strong, so I'll leave him to you. Western Boss and I'll stand by to prevent him from running.""Sure! He's just a brat. I'll destroy him right now to avenge Scarlet Thief, Demon Lord, and the others!" Brahma nodded and strode toward Leon, before stopping a few meters away in a confronting manner. Meanwhile, the Southern Boss and the Western Boss each chose a spot to seal off escape routes to prevent Leon from running. "Brahma, why don't you, the Southern Boss, and the Western Boss all attack at once? That ought to save me some time!" Leon pointed at Brahma coldly. Given his current strength and with the help of the Mirror of Sovereign, he could easily deal with Brahma. Rumors had it that Brahma reached the Semi-Saint State and had great strength, so he was not far from reaching the Saint State
"Kid, you must have a death wish!" Brahma's expression darkened maliciously. Leon was young and he looked down on Leon the entire time, not seeing him as a threat. Seeing as Leon did not dodge and intended to face his attack with a single finger, Brahma saw this as a suicide attempt and was not about to show mercy. He exerted more strength in his attack, intending to finish Leon off with a single blow to avenge the other criminals. "Oh no!""Mister Wolf has overestimated himself!"...Angus, Levi, and the others all paled as their hearts sank. Upon witnessing the Southern Boss and the Western Boss's defeat, they all knew that Leon was formidable and that he possessed a powerful defensive tool in the Peak Almighty State. However, Brahma was in the Semi-Saint State, making him much stronger than the Southern Boss and the Western Boss.He had enough power to break past Leon's defense. It was foolish of Leon to face Brahma directly, not to mention using a single finger. I
"What? How is that possible?" Everyone was stunned and rubbed their eyes in disbelief. They all knew about Brahma's reputation and thought that Leon would surely lose if he faced Brahma's attack with a single finger. To their bewilderment, the outcome was quite the contrary. Not only did Leon not lose, but he also defeated and injured Brahma. It was a miracle and they were all stunned. "That's weird! Why is Brahma so weak?" Leon did not continue to attack and frowned in confusion. The Semi-Saint State was technically a part of the Peak Almighty State. Based on the wave of true energy he sensed from Brahma, he could sense that Brahma was in the Peak Almighty State, and did not know if he was truly in the Semi-Saint State. However, rumors had it that Brahma was in the Semi-Saint State and was not far away from reaching the Saint State. Yet, through the exchange earlier, Leon had a new perspective on the matter. Brahma was far more powerful than the Southern Boss and the
"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
