As for who would ultimately win, Adrian and Tyron didn’t care. No matter which side prevailed, they planned to eliminate them. The Pleiades Herb was too valuable to pass up.The apprentices of Heaven's Act and the Crimson Blood Python were locked in a fierce battle. The snake repeatedly swung its massive tail, furious that these humans dared challenge it, viewing them as insignificant ants.As the fight dragged on, the eight apprentices struggled more and more against the python’s relentless attacks."This python is too strong!" one of the men shouted in frustration."I thought it was supposed to be severely injured!" another added."If this keeps up, our sword formation won’t hold much longer," a third said, his voice filled with worry.The situation wasn’t what they had expected. The python’s strength was overwhelming, and they found themselves trapped. What had seemed like an easy opportunity now felt like a terrible mistake. But at this point, retreat wasn’t an option. They c
The Crimson Blood Python didn’t care about anything else. It only wanted to kill the humans in front of it. The snake unleashed all its remaining power, looking more fearsome than ever. Its massive body loomed over the group, clearly intent on crushing them. The python knew its energy was depleting, and if it didn’t act soon, it would face certain death.From a distance, Adrian watched with a faint smile. "This Crimson Blood Python is smarter than it looks. Its strategy is working."Tyron nodded as he realized what was happening. "It's using its massive body to crush them. The human physique can't compare to a beast's. This way, it has the advantage."As they observed, the python’s huge body brutally slammed down on the eight men. One by one, the apprentices spat blood, severely injured and thrown backward. Their faces turned ghostly pale.They were furious. None had expected the python to use such a brute-force tactic. The difference between a human’s and a beast’s physique was im
The Heaven's Act apprentices skillfully wielded their swords, revealing their expertise in swordsmanship. They had brought numerous spare swords to ensure they wouldn't be left defenseless if one was lost during their formation.From a distance, Adrian and Tyron watched the scene unfold. The long swords flew out and exploded mid-air.Seeing this, Adrian sneered. "These guys are shameless, relying on cheap tactics. Even if the Crimson Blood Python has bones of steel, it won't hold out for long."Tyron smirked. "Let them keep at it for now. We'll deal with them soon. As underhanded as they are, defeating the snake will prove their capability."Adrian nodded in agreement.The eight apprentices grew more excited with each clash. Despite their swords breaking, they were slowly wearing down the Crimson Blood Python, inflicting severe injuries. Their ultimate goal was clear: to claim the snake's inner core. After all, the core was incredibly valuable, and obtaining it would significantly
Adrian smiled lightly and said, "It’s nothing. If they’re so eager to be defeated, I’ll give them the chance." And by "chance," he meant he would dismantle their barrier, allowing the Crimson Blood Python to annihilate the crowd in front of him. It was a truly shocking turn of events.Rumble...Terrifying vibrations echoed from afar, catching everyone’s attention. Adrian’s expression turned cold. At this point, fate would decide the outcome—who would live and who would fall—but he and Tyron were ready to act. Adrian was determined to claim the snake’s core.“What’s happening? This is terrifying!”The powerful forces crashed down on the eight apprentices, leaving them severely injured and burning with pain. The Crimson Blood Python showed no mercy."Roar!!" The snake’s massive claws struck with brutal force, sending the crowd into a panic. Its overwhelming power bore down on them."Deacon!" one of the Heaven's Act apprentices shouted in fury.Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!The snake’s
To the Crimson Blood Python, eliminating these four individuals was crucial. Otherwise, it would face great humiliation. The snake’s power ripped through the sky, and Madi vanished behind it, while the other four kept its attention from the front.“Heart of the Sword!” Madi’s long sword seemed to merge with him, launching a fierce assault on the snake. The snake’s blood and energy surged as it reacted to Madi’s overwhelming power. Madi, having reached advanced stages of strength before, was now even more formidable.“Roar!” the snake bellowed.“Kill it, Madi!” one of the men shouted, with the others joining the battle. “Die!” They roared as they charged, trying to distract the Crimson Blood Python.The snake’s eyes burned with rage as its beastly power surged.Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!Gale-like forces roared.To the snake, these attackers were mere pests seeking their death, and it was determined to make them pay for their audacity. The four men fought desperately, charging for
Seeing the scene unfold, Adrian’s gaze turned cold. “Let’s go!” he said.Whoosh! Whoosh!Two sharp sounds cut through the air.“It’s you!” After slaying the Crimson Blood Python, Madi looked up at Adrian, his eyes reddening as he quickly recognized him. His expression hardened. “Are you seeking death, Adrian? Don’t think that just because you killed a daemon general, I won’t dare to kill you.” His immense power surged, radiating in all directions.“Why bother? You’re indeed very powerful, but if you make me your enemy, you might regret it,” Adrian said indifferently, his tone devoid of courtesy.Madi's gaze grew icy. Adrian’s arrogance was unmistakable, and if he continued like this, he was clearly courting his demise.“Heart of the Sword!” Madi’s terrifying power ripped through the heavens. His long sword shattered the void, striking like a giant azure dragon, brimming with immense strength.Tyron, observing from a distance, looked slightly worried. The Heaven's Act's genius, M
The sound of clashing metal echoed through the air, a fearsome display of power. Madi was thrown through the air, his sword knocked from his hand and fluttering away in a chilling spectacle that left everyone stunned.Madi spat out blood, his expression one of utter madness.Tyron stared at Adrian in shock, unable to believe how formidable he was.Adrian’s relentless sword techniques created an intense and terrifying situation as if the very fabric of reality might shatter.Madi struggled to comprehend the skill behind such a crafty technique, his eyes filled with horror. “Where did your sword technique come from?” he asked in disbelief.Adrian smiled faintly. “I’ve already told you that your sword techniques are unremarkable. Your greed has led you to this end. Don’t blame anyone else.”Madi’s rage only grew. “If you hadn’t ambushed me earlier, my apprentices wouldn’t have been killed. You’re despicable and detestable! I’ll kill you!” His fury intensified, his power becoming eve
Tyron watched in surprise. The gap between him and Adrian was far greater than he had imagined. Even though they were both at the Nascent Stage, they seemed worlds apart. Words couldn’t capture the disparity.When the third sword struck, it was overwhelmingly fierce. The sword sliced through the air like a storm, tearing through the sky in an instant.“Ack! Ack!” Madi fell to his knees, coughing up blood. He realized that Adrian’s earlier claim—that he would be defeated in three moves—was true.Under the relentless assault of Adrian’s sword techniques, Madi had no excuse. He was beaten not just by sheer power but by the brilliance and complexity of Adrian’s swordplay. His defeat was not due to strength but to Adrian’s superior technique and his own lack of understanding.Filled with rage, Madi glared at Adrian. “I’ll kill you!” And without another word, he fled at high speed.Tyron watched in astonishment. Adrian was puzzled. Why had Madi run away instead of fighting as he had pro
