Years ago, Kori was a dominant force on the global stage, a figure who instilled fear in many martial arts warriors. Yet, this formidable warrior was only the second-in-command of Moblathos. The group's legendary supreme leader was of unimaginable power and shrouded in mystery. Even the Moblathos leaders had only encountered this individual a few times."It's time. Strike now," Kori instructed, waving his robe. Immediately, the warriors surged forward in unison. Orders were rapidly given, and the entire island seemed to awaken. Over a century of operation, Moblathos had turned the island into an unassailable stronghold. Their defensive arsenal was impressive, with missile bases lining the island's edges and numerous warplanes and combat vehicles at the ready. The storm intensified, with thunder rumbling relentlessly. Purple lightning slashed through the night sky, casting light over the landscape. Sheets of rain poured down as the waves churned fiercely.…"Your Highness, we
Intercepting the submarines proved to be incredibly challenging. Additionally, with the close-range attack occurring within a five-mile perimeter, Moblathos had no time to respond. "Alert! Alert!" The command center of Moblathos sounded the alarm immediately, triggering the automatic activation of the secondary interception system. Explosions ripped through the air. One by one, the powerful missiles were intercepted and detonated. Despite this, the missiles were so potent that the energy waves from their explosions in the sky swept over the island. Numerous mountains and forests were incinerated, and the initial defensive barrier along the island's shoreline was breached."Damn it!" the chief bellowed in rage. The situation was still dire. Not all of the 88 missiles had been successfully intercepted. "Oh, no!" The chief watched as the radar displayed three missiles heading straight for the island. It was too late! With a boom, the three missiles detonated at the same time,
Landon's talent was extraordinary. With just one punch, an icy presence erupted, forming into a spear that flew forward like lightning, aiming to impale Gideon on the spot. "Just in time," Gideon grinned. He responded with a punch of his own, employing Detonation Fist. His entire demeanor radiated a regal authority. Gideon was eager to finish the fight swiftly, knowing that lingering in Moblathos' territory could lead to unforeseen complications.The spear shattered with a loud explosion. Landon's face grew tense as he shifted into a more serious stance for the battle. At the same time, Gideon surged ahead with the ferocity of a tiger. "Hell's Punch!" Suddenly, a massive shadow figure of Hell King appeared, glowing with golden light and towering majestically behind Gideon.Landon's eyes narrowed, but as a remarkable talent, he quickly regained his composure and launched a full-force attack. The air turned icy, and the ground began to freeze. "Glacier Saber!" he shouted, e
Suddenly, a precious sword appeared in Landon's grip. He swung it with great force, and the blade's light extended 1,000 feet, slicing through the dragon-elephant's shadow. "Great!" the observing mentees shouted with excitement. Gideon lifted an eyebrow, surprised but unfazed. He didn't budge. In his view, Landon, clutching the sword, was descending rapidly, charging straight at him. "Sky-Burial Saber! Perish!" Landon shouted fiercely. As the intense attack approached, Gideon stayed calm and countered with a punch, yelling, "Boundless Fist." The light from his fist soared skyward. Landon's sword clashed with the fist, and they were cinched in a deadlock. Ultimately, a massive explosion occurred, sending Landon hurtling backward."How can this be?" "Mr. Waller actually lost!" "That's the Sky Burial Saber! It's one of Mr. Waller's most formidable and unique techniques. He once defeated three peak transcendent experts with just one swing of that saber!" "What's happening
"Captured your wife?" Kori furrowed his brows, momentarily unsure how to reply.This was because Moblathos often seized women from outside, and it was difficult to determine which one of those women belonged to Gideon.However, Gideon assured him, "Don't worry about it. I've already rescued her.""That's wonderful!" Kori laughed heartily.He descended the steps, approached the front of the square, and met Gideon's gaze directly. "Since your wife is safe, it seems this was just a misunderstanding. Please, calm down. Let's sit and discuss this thoroughly. "As for an apology, Moblathos won't overlook it. We will ensure you're satisfied.""There's no need for an apology. I've traveled a long way specifically to conquer you," Gideon stated."How dare you!" Kori erupted in anger.He realized that Gideon wasn't going to drop the subject easily, so he quickly shifted his tone and snapped, "Do you really think you're untouchable, kid? The idea of taking down Moblathos is utterly absurd
Kori looked at Gideon with the intensity of confronting a formidable foe and spoke seriously, "You've demonstrated your strength, earning you the highest respect from Moblathos. However, we're not easily intimidated. "Many influential members of our organization have yet to reveal themselves, and we have a significant arsenal of advanced technology at our disposal. If this turns into a battle to the death, you won't emerge unscathed. "You've already eliminated the four guardians, releasing some of your fury. Let's discuss this peacefully now.""You have no right to speak to me!" Gideon bellowed, his voice booming like thunder, sending chills down their spines. "Moblathos has committed numerous atrocious acts. You've lost all moral compass, bringing harm to countless young men and women! You vile leeches! Everyone should have the right to wipe you out! "Kill!" Gideon was not a saint. He had journeyed across the globe, his hands tainted with the blood of many. He was a fierce
On this night, all three conditions aligned perfectly. The violent wind and rain combined with the heavy losses in battle, where blood flowed like a river, gave Gideon the chance to execute his technique."Break! Break! Break!" Kori attacked with desperation.The Blood Moon Tempest was riddled with holes and eventually succumbed to the onslaught, exploding with a thunderous crash.The bloody water transformed into blood-swords, shooting in all directions.It was another sweeping attack, resulting in numerous casualties among the Moblathos members, leaving many dead or wounded.Kori was also struck by the blood-swords, with over a dozen bloody wounds on his body, leaving him soaked in blood.It was a tragic sight. Truly, it was profoundly tragic."You brat!" Kori's voice was raspy, his eyes shining with fierce hatred and malice.Gideon, clutching the valuable sword, moved forward deliberately, his face devoid of emotion.He spoke with a detached tone, "I promised to conquer Mob
"Who on earth are you?" Kori asked. His face twisted with fury as he ran desperately, with Gideon relentlessly pursuing him like a hawk after its prey. It was both insulting and disgraceful! "Argh!" Eventually, Kori couldn't bear it any longer. He stopped and bellowed, "I'd rather die than be shamed. Kid, I'll fight you to death!" Kori spat out a mouthful of blood, unleashed a secret technique, and launched a powerful attack. Gideon's expression turned serious at that moment. He calmly extended his fist and declared, "Doombringer Knuckle!" The brilliant glow of his fist surged forward with determination. Kori's attack was instantly destroyed, and he was sent flying, his body nearly breaking apart. He crashed hard into a dirt pit and couldn't rise again. "Sir, watch out!" Harper yelled with all her strength just then. Gideon raised an eyebrow. More and more advanced weapons were being launched. Several missiles sped toward them. In fact, the high-tech weapons had been re
The High Marshal title worked like a charm.The mayor of this city, Bailey Pearce, personally welcomed Gideon and his group into his residence with great enthusiasm and utmost respect.After all, news of Gideon storming Cook Manor and carrying the Imperial Token had already spread through every level of government across the Nine Provinces. Who would dare provoke the High Marshal?"Marshal Snow, what brings you to the Wasteland? Are you here to scout for resource troves? If so, I'd be happy to guide you myself.""There's no need for that. I'm here for information on Nethercult."Bailey was visibly startled. "Marshal Snow, Nethercult is one of the three major powers in the northern region. They're no joke."Gideon gave a cold snort. "I'm here to kill their cult leader. If Nethercult's disciples know what's good for them, they'll be put to work mining resources. If they don't, then I'll wipe them all out."Bailey broke out in a cold sweat.So, the rumors were true. Gideon was like
Attwell was already a Supreme.And judging by his energy, he wasn't just any Supreme, but a peak Supreme. He was probably even stronger than Pope of Light and Yohan. No one expected Attwell to have reached this level.Edric and Jandial immediately backed off."Attwell, we meant nothing by it. Don't act on impulse. Alfsee's our grandnephew. We will never hurt him.""Yeah, Attwell. I was out of line earlier. That's on me."Attwell gave a cold snort and reined in his energy. Only then did the two finally breathe easy."It's really not that big a deal." Attwell shook his head and said calmly, "I know the location of several S-class dragon veins in Dasovia. There's one right here in the Wasteland. If I wanted to, I could subdue it. With the power of an S-class dragon vein, I could go head-to-head with him."But what's the point? Fame, fortune, power—none of it means anything to me. Life is short. I might as well live it relaxed and comfortably."Edric and Jandial were deeply shaken.
"Forget everything else. When it comes to familial ties, I'm your uncle. No matter how you look at it, you should come out and see me," Jandial exclaimed.That seemed to work. Inside the bamboo house, a presence stirred.Moments later, a handsome middle-aged man stepped out, dressed in rough linen clothes, long hair loosely draped over his back, yet still carrying an unmistakable noble air."Attwell…""Things have changed. I'm no longer a prince. I'm just Attwell."Edric and Jandial exchanged glances, then said, "Attwell, don't get the wrong idea. We're not using Alfsee to threaten you."Attwell smiled. "I've let go of all that. Alfsee might be my son, but he holds no sway over me. He has his own path—whether he lives or dies has got little to do with me."That caught Edric and Jandial off guard.Watching Attwell watering the flowers, they realized they couldn't read him anymore. Atwell really might have let go of everything and returned to simplicity."Attwell, this is a rare
A visit to the Nethercult in the northern Wasteland—perfect. It was basically a free pass to wipe out Nethercult.Gideon's killing intent surged.Jessica said, "Marshal Snow, should I talk to my father and arrange for a troop to assist you?""There's no need for that. If I wanted, I could contact Samson and have the Dragon's Aegis flatten Nethercult. But that would put Elara's life at risk. I'll pay the Nethercult a visit myself. I want to see what kind of stunt Tristan is trying to pull.""Marshal Snow, it's too dangerous. Tristan definitely has something planned. He wouldn't be bold enough to let you walk into Nethercult otherwise.""It's fine." Gideon wasn't afraid.He already had the confidence to take on a supreme. Even if Tristan had brought backup, it didn't matter."Gideon." At that moment, Ronan and Noel arrived."Mr. Foley, I didn't expect to see you here."Ronan laughed. "I was actually there the day you were appointed. Back then I was trying to guess who the new Hig
"Supreme core, huh?" Gideon muttered, the corner of his mouth lifting. "Interesting. I'm intrigued.""Die!" Tristan screamed hysterically.Gideon rapidly retreated—not out of fear, but to create distance, preparing a devastating killer move.Suddenly, a violent wind howled, spreading intense heat. The temperature in the area shot up.At that moment, firelight flickered in both of Gideon's hands. The left one glowed bright red—it was the Earthcore Flame. The flame on the right shimmered eerie green—it was the netherflame.Then, he brought both hands together.The two heavenly flames began to fuse, though they resisted each other, violently clashing under the pressure. The moment the seal was lifted, the explosion would be unimaginable.But that wasn't enough.Gideon opened his mouth and breathed out streams of core power, merging into the flames. The nation's destiny surged into it as well.The buildup of energy already roared in the void.The seawater beneath Gideon's feet spl
"Proceed!" The word rippled through the skies.From Imperial Palace, it shot out, passed through the High Marshal Seal, and transmitted over Tyrant Sea—stirring it to a boil, shaking the whole place.A dragon's cry echoed through the void from the seal.Next, a mysterious force poured out from the seal, flooding into Gideon's body, lifting him as if to the summit in one step. A commanding, Supreme energy surged from within."This is bad!" Tristan's expression changed.At this moment, Chase had approved Gideon's request. Empowered, Gideon's strength skyrocketed as though he had instantly leapt to the supreme level."Damn it!" Tristan clenched his teeth.He didn't want to back down, but he had no choice. He had to avoid a head-on clash."Are you trying to run away?" Gideon sneered.Now, he was invincible. Tristan was just a weakling—a bug. There was nothing more to him."Tyrant Sea, rise." Gideon raised both arms. The seawater grew wild and furious, surging hundreds of yards int
The broken blade condensed the force of the blade itself."The great Marshal Snow is using a broken blade? How pathetic! My ghost blade was forged over three years, infused with countless rare materials. It's indestructible," Tristan boasted, laughing."If the man's weak, the weapon doesn't matter."Gideon's casual jab left Tristan speechless, his face flushed with shame."A smart aleck, I see. Die!"Just like that, a black blade arc came down.Gideon stayed calm, swung the broken blade, and a white arc of energy shot upward.The black and white blades clashed and shattered on impact.Tristan's next move followed immediately. "The eighth style of the 13 Ghost Blades! Nether's Pass!"The strike carried a chilling gale. The sound of wailing ghosts and howling spirits echoed.As it neared, Gideon noticed countless skulls swirling in the wind. They were only shadows, but enough to make one's scalp crawl. They were clawing and snarling, like demons escaping from hell."Those are p
"Bitch!" The three men were furious and humiliated.As Nethercult guardians, being injured by a woman was unthinkable!"Nethervoid Hands."They moved together, and an intimidating hand seal came crashing down.Noel was just about to step in when suddenly, Elara stepped forward, facing the incoming attack head-on without a trace of fear. Pure essence energy erupted from her, causing the surface of the sea to freeze."Ice Soul Palm." A cold gleam flashed in Elara's eyes as she slammed her palm forward, clashing with the hand seal in a massive explosion.The three guardians were sent flying.Elara also coughed up blood and was knocked back into the floating palace."Elara!" Jessica panicked and rushed in, helping Elara up."I'm fine." Elara then wiped the blood from her lips and closed the palace gates.Her physique was strong, but her cultivation level wasn't high enough. If it got serious, she couldn't match the three guardians.Still, that brief clash had been her first rea
Gideon and Tristan clashed fists and were blown backward.Gideon's whole body went numb. He thought to himself, "Anyone who's remotely close to the word 'supreme' is no joke."Tristan, meanwhile, was shaken to his core. The moment their fists met, a massive force surged through his arm.If he hadn't reacted in time to deflect the impact, his body would've taken serious damage. Even so, his right arm was almost completely numb now.His long sleeves covered it so no one could see the trembling."No wonder it's called the Solar Titan Physique. It's one of the top-tier physiques. Now I see why.""That was nothing. Watch out, Mr. Neblanc. I'm about to turn it up." Gideon laughed loudly, battle intent soaring.He launched a full-on attack.It was not a secret technique. Instead, it was just pure close-quarters combat.That put Tristan in a tough spot. Just one exchange had already left him at a disadvantage. If they kept going toe-to-toe, there was a real risk he would get injured an
