“The Hollow stage… Mr. Moonshade has reached the Hollow stage.”“Incredible. It’s a miracle!”“He was only at the early Nascent Soul stage when he arrived, and in just two days, he has broken through to the Hollow stage. It’s unbelievable.”“Such speed is unprecedented in the cultivation world!”“To think I doubted whether Mr. Moonshade was the Chosen One just a moment ago! But even if he’s not, he’s undoubtedly an unparalleled prodigy!”Everyone praised Andrius, even with a sense of amazement.Yes! Andrius’ talent was so extraordinary that even the old veterans were genuinely astonished.“It’s not just the Hollow stage…” Silas stared unblinkingly at Andrius and said hoarsely, “That move just now was at least enhanced by mid-Hollow stage true vitality. Otherwise, it couldn’t have dented the Silverium Puppet’s surface.“Moreover, his soul energy is powerful and far beyond our expectations!”Silas’ voice was filled with shock. He, the leader of the Immortal Cultivation Allianc
What they saw shocked them again.After a brief fight with the Silverium Puppets, Andrius put away his Linebreaker Overlord and chose to fight with his bare hands.Everyone knew of Andrius’ mastery of spear techniques, so what was he up to by abandoning his spear now?Soon, they found out.Andrius charged forward with his fists, and one punch was followed by ten thousand!Thousands of fist shadows enveloped one of the Silverium Puppets, raining down on it like a storm. It struck every inch of its body from head to toe without missing a spot.It was the Esoteric Art: Myriad Fists technique. Each of the thousands of fists possessed immense power.Silas and the others were stunned.What was Andrius doing? Only Andrius himself understood.Each of his punches landed on different parts of the puppet. Through the dense flurry of punches, he could determine which parts of the puppet were the hardest, and the hardest spot had to be where the control core was hidden!The Silverium Pupp
From now on, Andrius was its master, and it would follow his commands without question. With that experience, the rest was simple. He used the same method and made the other Silverium Puppet his guardian too.Then, the mist at the end of the eerie path cleared, revealing a road that seemed to lead to the heavens. It was a sign that by passing the Gate of Living Death, he could begin his path to ascension.The crowd was already numb with shock. They had lived for hundreds of years but had never encountered a monster like Andrius, who could advance from the early Nascent Soul stage to the mid-Hollow stage in just a few days.With his late Nascent Soul stage strength, he slew an early Hollow stage lion, and with his mid-Hollow stage strength, he made the Silverium Puppets his own. Each of those feats was an earth-shattering accomplishment, but Andrius did it.Was there anything in this world that he could not do? Where did he get so many profound techniques?The crowd was numb, s
Yvie did not want him to go.Andrius knew what she was thinking. However, he had no intention of staying, so he did not want to give her false hope. He said bluntly, “I’m sure you remember what I said. I’m not a member of the Immortal Cultivation Alliance, and I have more important things to do.”Yvie immediately remembered Andrius telling her about Luna, and her expression sunk further.The scene fell silent.A moment later, the Grand Elder stepped forward and said, “Mr. Moonshade, we’ve come up with a solution.”Andrius nodded. “Please tell me.”You take the Silverium Puppets but on three conditions.”Andrius said calmly, “Let’s hear them.”“First, given the fortune you’ve obtained in the Immortal Cultivation Alliance, we hope that if the alliance faces difficulties in the future, you will help us unconditionally once.“Second, when you search for the Sky Genesis Immortal Palace treasure, you must take Ms. Murdock with you.“Third, you must teach the Immortal Cultivation Al
Since Silas was willing to meet him halfway, Andrius did not push further and immediately agreed. “Of course, Silas. My achievements are thanks to the Immortal Cultivation Alliance. I agree to the remaining conditions.”Silas and the other elders were relieved to hear that.“That’s good.”Silas’ expression eased slightly, and he asked, “When do you plan to leave?”“Now.” Andrius said bluntly, “I have many things to do and must leave as soon as possible.”Whether it was what he promised Johan, Skybound Sect and Gerard, or his own matters—Luna and Halle, he had to race against time.As he spoke, he instinctively glanced at Yvie. That was because he had agreed with the elders to take her along to search for the treasure and they would have to depart together soon.“Andrius…” Yvie also stepped forward. “Is it unlikely that you’ll return to the Immortal Cultivation Alliance in the future?”Andrius said unsurely, “Maybe…”He could not say for sure.“In that case…” Yvie looked at Si
“If I must say, Andrius Moonshade must die!”A sinister glint flashed in Dominic’s eyes as he said firmly, “Even if we have to pay a price, we must kill him.”Benjamin nodded in agreement. “For killing several elders from the Drakkon Sect, Andrius deserves to die. However, he was rescued by Yvie Murdock. It’ll be hard for us to find an opportunity to strike.”That was the main difficulty in killing Andrius. After all, Septimus, an expert at the Hollow stage, was just a servant of the Immortal Cultivation Alliance.Neither Ethereal Tower nor the Drakkon Sect could afford to provoke them.“There’s no rush.” Dominic narrowed his eyes. “I’ve stationed people outside Nightless City to monitor Andrius’ movements. We’ll have a chance as soon as he steps out.”“I refuse to believe…” A vicious look flashed across Dominic’s face. “Andrius will stay in the Immortal Cultivation Alliance forever.”“That’s right!” Benjamin also nodded. “We’ll wait! If Andrius doesn’t come out in a year, we’ll
“You…” Benjamin was also shocked speechless, and his lips were trembling. “You’ve reached the Hollow stage…”Not wanting to waste his breath, Andrius spat coldly, “You should’ve been prepared for this day the moment you targeted me. Killers should be prepared to be killed. Now, die!”As Andrius struck his fist out, a fist shadow condensed in the air, whipping out fierce winds. Just as it was about to land on the two, a shadow appeared before Andrius, countering the fist strike with another fist.Bam! The powerful true vitality collided, forcing Andrius back three steps. Andrius’ eyes widened as he looked at the person.The person was covered in a black robe, revealing only a pair of eyes. What stood out was the embroidery of a golden wolf head howling at the moon on the robe’s chest.Andrius learned from Yvie along the way that it was the symbol of the Demonic Cultivation Alliance, so the person must be someone with a high position in the Demonic Cultivation Alliance!“Guardi
In other words, the sword was also a Sky Genesis Sword. It was the one Oliver Stone and Arthur found by using the treasure map the seven pendants revealed!“I’ll remember you!”In the air, Guardian Quade glared at Andrius with undisguised killing intent. “One day, I’ll return and kill you with my own hands!”Then, he turned into a streak of light and disappeared into the sky.Andrius did not pursue him. He already knew the person’s identity as a guardian from the Demonic Cultivation Alliance. Thus, the sword would naturally be in the Demonic Cultivation Alliance.Furthermore, Andrius had to return to Florence quickly and sort out various matters before he could feel relieved enough to set out and find the eight remaining swords.“Well…”Andrius turned his attention back to Dominic and Benjamin, his eyes filled with killing intent. “It’s time I send you on your way!”The two were horrified. If Andrius had driven even Guardian Quade away, how could they survive?“Mercy!”“Pleas
