“Adrian, focus on what’s ahead. I’ll handle the attacks from behind,” Tyron said. Turning around, he unleashed a torrent of deadly sword energy that slashed across the sky, shattering everything in its path.Suddenly, a devastating attack struck Tyron head-on. He gritted his teeth and retaliated.The powerful assault sent Tyron flying, yet his strength remained formidable, impressing everyone who watched in shock. While Adrian’s power was astounding, it became clear that Tyron was also not to be trifled with.But despite recognizing Tyron’s strength, the crowd continued to attack him.“Die! Let’s see how you defend against this!” Greg charged forward, transformed into a new form. His power erupted, aiming to destroy Tyron.Adrian sensed the devastating force barreling toward them and worried that Tyron wouldn’t hold out. He turned his gaze back to the group, focusing on Greg, whose hatred for him was evident. Adrian felt a strong urge to take him down right then.“It seems you al
“No way! How can there be two of him?” one of the powerful figures exclaimed.The others struggled to come to their senses. They could feel the immense power of Adrian's clone, but the Adrian standing firm amidst the golden light was just as intimidating. They wondered which of the two was more terrifying.Boom!The entire world trembled as terrifying power surged from Adrian's hands, capable of breaking through anything in its path.“Don’t be scared! He’s just bluffing! Let’s charge at him and finish him off! He’s exhausted by now and can’t possibly take us all on!” a voice echoed from the shadows.Everyone heard the voice, but they couldn’t pinpoint who had spoken. There were only two possibilities. The person was so powerful they chose to remain hidden, or they were simply a cowardly agitator.In response, Adrian let out a cold laugh. “How utterly ridiculous. You’re nothing but a coward for hiding in the dark. If you’ve got the guts, come out and face me. Why lurk in the shado
The figure in the shadows fell silent. Just when everyone thought they wouldn’t speak again, the voice coldly stated, “People like you block everyone’s path. This spiritual treasure doesn’t belong to you alone. Let’s band together to eliminate him. He’s far too arrogant and continues to obstruct our quest.”Greg’s words surprised everyone. Moments ago, he had been insufferably haughty. Yet now, he was seeking their cooperation, leaving them feeling uneasy. Some wondered if Greg had ulterior motives. A proud individual like him wouldn’t normally lower himself to ask for help, which made his sudden change in tone seem suspicious.Seeing their hesitation, Tyron felt a surge of anger.Adrian sneered. “Bunch of fools. He just wants to use you. Once he’s done, he’ll slaughter you all. Do you really trust someone like that?” His tone was ominous, causing the crowd to shift uneasily.An elder among them frowned and said, “I won’t be part of this fight. I’ll just watch. You can all settle t
Upon hearing these words, everyone’s expressions darkened. They sensed the situation was about to take a turn for the worse, filling them with unease. Attacking Adrian now seemed like a risk with unimaginable consequences. After all, they had witnessed how easily he took down a Nascent in just a few moves.No one wanted to meet the same fate, but the thought of letting Adrian claim such a powerful spirit treasure for himself was unbearable. So, they waited, hoping for an opening.Greg quickly understood their thoughts, a sharp glint forming in his eyes. This was the perfect setup. If the crowd attacked Adrian, he could strike at the last moment and crush Adrian underfoot, but he couldn’t act alone. He wasn’t that sure of himself. Adrian’s strength was terrifying, and the energy fluctuations from his earlier display had made that clear to everyone.Suddenly, the sound of concealed daggers slicing through the air interrupted the tension. No one saw who threw them, but the weapons shot
Greg’s sole focus was to kill Adrian, determined to claim his head. "Damn you! I’d like to see how you escape now. If you want this spirit treasure, then go to hell for it!" His voice rang out with fury.Adrian responded with a cold laugh. "Do you really think you're guaranteed to win?"From Adrian’s perspective, Greg was far too confident. Did the latter really believe he had what it took to defeat him? Even with a crowd charging at him, Adrian didn’t flinch.Tyron, standing nearby, couldn’t fathom what Adrian was thinking. In such a fierce and terrifying situation, most would have fled. But Adrian remained calm, facing everything head-on. His composure was beyond what anyone could understand.With a flash of killing intent in his eyes, Adrian said, "Tyron, stay behind me. It won’t take long to deal with these ants."Tyron froze, uncertain about what Adrian had up his sleeve. He wondered whether Adrian could really take on the overwhelming number of enemies before them.The crow
At that moment, they all felt the terrifying power surrounding them. Adrian looked like a demonic god, wielding an invincible force that left everyone paralyzed with dread. Suspended in mid-air, his body glowed with brilliant golden light intertwined with streaks of green, amplifying the fearsome aura that gripped the onlookers. None of them had anticipated his true power, and as they watched in horror, their fear only grew.Unbeknownst to most, Adrian had already launched an attack from another direction. Greg, quick to notice, was startled and shouted in alarm, “This scoundrel! He’s planning a sneak attack!”Turning to counter the strike, Greg sensed the unusual nature of Adrian’s movements, while the rest remained oblivious to the imminent danger. But it was too late. Adrian had already initiated another attack from a different angle, creating the illusion that there were two of him. The crowd was horrified by the sight."How is this possible? Isn’t there already one of him over
At this moment, Greg was consumed by frustration. No matter how hard he speculated, he couldn't comprehend what Adrian had experienced. Fueled by anger, he charged madly toward Adrian. In Greg's mind, eliminating Adrian was imperative. He couldn’t shake off the humiliation he had suffered at Adrian’s hands.Adrian’s nonchalance only intensified Greg's resolve. He understood that between him and Adrian, only one could emerge as the true chosen one. Conflicts often ended with one side utterly defeated. The first to show weakness would be deemed inferior, destined for a miserable fate.As violent energy shook the corridor, Adrian observed the group with a calm, faint smile in his eyes. Suddenly, his expression shifted. He sensed something unsettling in the corridor. Surprise flickered across his face.He hadn't anticipated such fluctuations in this passageway. It seemed staying here much longer wasn't wise. But the others, blind to the disturbance, continued their frenzied assault on h
After all, geniuses tend to be vengeful. If a formidable talent like Adrian chose to seek retribution, it would spell endless trouble for everyone involved. The reality was clear—offending Adrian would lead to unimaginable consequences. He was not someone to be trifled with. If they dared to challenge him, the outcome would be dire. They would either die, or he would.Adrian’s gaze was icy, filled with fury. From his perspective, those before him would have to pay dearly for their actions.“What a bunch of idiots! Now I'll show you my true power!” With that declaration, Adrian threw a punch with nothing but his bare hands, relying solely on his physical strength to confront the crowd.In an instant, three versions of Adrian merged into one, while the distant figure of him vanished. Greg sneered coldly upon witnessing Adrian's three separate forms coalesce into one.“Hmph! I knew his power was limited. That earlier attack must have drained him, leaving him much weaker now,” Greg pro
