If word got out, everyone would be stunned. "Awesome! That was a great fight!" Sophia squealed in delight. Her eyes lit up as she realized not only was Dustin handsome, but he was also incredibly powerful. He had a bright future awaiting him. Sophia had to seize her chance and do whatever she could to make him fall in love with her, even if it meant breaking her engagement with Jackson. "Fuck! He's at it again!" Garrett snarled, wariness evident in his eyes although he wore a surly expression. The chances of him getting his revenge were becoming slimmer once Dustin showcased how strong he really was. At this point, he had given up on the idea of revenge. He just hoped that Dustin wouldn't come after him. "And he said he was going to let me strike him thrice first before he made a move. But he can't even endure a single blow. Well, it seems like the leader of Frostwing Sect isn't exactly that great either," Dustin said nonchalantly. There was a hint of sarcasm in his ton

"Show Master Howler some respect. Leave half of everything behind and let's get going."They started moving upon Grace's orders. Some took the jewelry with them, while some loaded themselves with the Soul Elixir. Though they were instructed to leave half of them behind, they all took more than they should. Nevertheless, Damien turned a blind eye to this even though he already saw right through them.Dustin's power was so intimidating that everyone was extremely wary of him now. They dared not take the risk, nor did they want to go against him. If a commotion broke out, they would most likely end up with nothing. After all, the palace was surrounded by different forces. If the fight didn't end well for both parties, there would be other forces who would gladly benefit from it. As a result, Grace and her companions stepped out of the Underwater Palace with their loaded bags. Though the elites of Drakes Dominion Order and Frostwing Sect were itching to lunge at them, they didn't

Fortunately, Grace's assistant, Osley, just happened to arrive with lots of supplements. After a brief rest, they departed again. After three days, they finally made it out of the Deadlands in the afternoon of the third day. They were back at Dusthaven Village, where they had briefly stayed before.They had been particularly cautious in the past three days. They tossed and turned in their sleep, worried about the possible dangers they might encounter on their journey. They were finally relieved once they were back at Dusthaven Village. "It's getting late now, so we'll stay here tonight. If you're in a hurry to go somewhere else, please go ahead," Grace at the village entrance. "Now, if you'll excuse me."After that, she stayed at the inn she had reserved with her envoy team. Since they had accomplished their mission, it was about time for their team members to go their separate ways. All of them benefited from the journey, and each of them was loaded with plenty of treasure

"Hmph! He's just putting on a show! What's so impressive?" Garrett grumbled under his breath as he watched Dustin's receding figure. A man wouldn't reject the advances of a beautiful woman who approached willingly. Garrett believed that Dustin was merely putting on a noble act, presenting one side while hiding his true intentions in the shadows. However, while he was displeased, he dared not act recklessly due to the significant gap in strength between them. After muttering to himself, he departed with the members of the Black Scorpion Squad.Their expedition to the Deadlands this time had resulted in heavy losses. Fortunately, they managed to secure a considerable amount of treasure. After selling their loot, it would undoubtedly leave them with wealth enough to last a lifetime. "Seems like you got the wrong idea, Sophia. Dustin was never interested in you," a disciple from the Embersteel Order mocked. Sophia was undeniably beautiful but had a nasty character, marked by

"They… didn't make it!" Sophia choked back her tears. Filled with grief, she briefly recounted the events."So you're saying that the Fantasy Sea Alliance ambushed your group for treasure?" Bertha's expression turned cold instantly."That's right! They were greedy and heartless. They took advantage of their numbers and slaughtered everyone." Sophia burst into tears by the end of it."Those damned bastards! How dare they kill our people? I'm going to make them pay a heavy price one day!" Bertha seethed, gritting her teeth. The disciples she dispatched as their trial had been Harmony Sect elites. Naturally, she was devastated to find that almost all of them were dead. "If it weren't for Jackson and his group intervening, I would have joined them too!" Sophia sobbed."Jackson, thank you for saving my disciple. Harmony Sect is indebted to the Embersteel Order," Bertha expressed her gratitude. "You're welcome, Master Peach. Our sects have always been on good terms. Sophia is also

"What? Soul Elixir?"The Harmony Sect members were shocked. For martial artists, Soul Elixir was considered a highly coveted treasure for cultivation. With enough of it, even an ordinary martial artist could progress rapidly and break through to the realm of a grandmaster. Unfortunately, Soul Elixir was an exceedingly rare precious substance, typically only found in the most extraordinary treasures of nature. Obtaining it was also an arduous process involving intricate refinement and purification. It wasn't an exaggeration to claim that even a single drop of Soul Elixir was worth a fortune, and a small bottle of it could potentially spark a bloodbath. If Sophia's water bottles contained Soul Elixir, the disciples couldn't even begin to imagine their value. "You're right, Master Peach. These bottles are indeed filled with Soul Elixir, and it's not just one bottle either. I have eight of them!" Sophia revealed. "Eight… Eight big bottles of Soul Elixir?" Bertha was stunned t

Night soon fell, and back at the inn, Grace's team of guards returned to their rooms to rest after dinner. However, just to be safe, two groups stayed behind to patrol the area. They had been physically and mentally exhausted during their time in the Deadlands. Now that they've come out from that place, they could finally get a good night's sleep.In one of the rooms on the second floor, Dustin took a refreshing hot bath before sitting on the bed with his eyes closed to recuperate. Their mission this time was finally complete. As for the treasures, Dustin was not slightly interested in them. All he took was a bottle of Soul Elixir. He had never tried it before, and he was purely curious about the taste. At his level, he would not be able to benefit greatly from it. Not to mention, he still possessed the greatest treasure in the martial world, the Celestial Pearl, which allowed him to cultivate at an astonishing speed. That was why he wasn't particularly crazy about the Sou

As Sophia spoke, she gradually closed the distance and touched Dustin's robust chest. Her bright eyes glowed subtly, emanating an enchanting allure capable of ensnaring one's soul. For ordinary martial artists, just a mere glance was enough to succumb to its captivating influence. This was Harmony Sect's distinctive Art of Seduction, Blushing Intoxication. The reason Harmony Sect was able to prosper in the Southwest for so many years was closely tied to the practice of this seductive art. The more beautiful one was, the higher their proficiency in this art, and the more irresistibly they attracted men. Sophia had been honing Blushing Intoxication since young, perfecting it over more than a decade. Coupled with her exceptional figure and looks, few men could resist her charm. Even someone like Jackson from the Embersteel Order couldn't escape her seductive technique and fell victim to her enchantment.Sophia believed that if Dustin harbored any affection, or even the slight

Dustin had boarded the plane back to Oakvale. His trip to Sacred Wrym Summit had been full of ups and downs. From the Combat Tournament to the invasion of the Hall of Gods, his journey had been perilous. Thankfully, the outcome was favorable. He had won the championship at the tournament, acquired three Dracan essences, and ultimately foiled the Hall of Gods' plan. In every way, the mission had been nearly flawless.After bidding farewell to his newfound allies, Dustin joined Grace on the return flight. Four of the five Dracan essences had already been gathered, leaving only one remaining. According to Grace, the last essence had been located, and the person holding it was in Oakvale. Though their identity was still unknown, she suspected it was most likely one of the three princes.With the position of heir to the throne still uncertain, the three princes were all eager to secure their power. Whoever obtained the Dracan essence would be blessed with fortune and have a higher c

The chaos of the night quickly settled.By morning, as the first light of dawn broke across the horizon, Sacred Wrym Summit had regained its usual tranquility. Yet, the bloodstains across the ground and the wreckage of buildings stood as grim reminders of the previous night's violence.The military forces summoned by Grace had already taken the Hall of Gods' prisoners into custody.Rumors spread like wildfire, fueling gossip throughout the martial world as all the major guilds watched with keen interest. After all, very few in history had ever dared to challenge Sacred Wrym Summit, and a bold invasion aimed at destroying it was nothing short of unprecedented.The outcome was clear to all who bore witness. After many years, the world had come to recognize the true terror of Arion. He was no mere mortal—he was almost a godlike figure.…Inside the Hall of Gods' headquarters in Streuqua, the core members were gathered, seated in two rows on either side of the grand hall.On the thr

After dealing with the Hall of Gods' elite fighters, Arion disappeared in a blur. When he reappeared, he was hovering above the forbidden ground of Sacred Wrym Summit.The scene at the entrance to the forbidden ground was one of utter carnage. Bodies lay strewn across the ground, and rivers of blood flowed freely. All members of the Hall of Gods, including Hank, lay motionless on the ground.Dustin and Willard, both covered in blood and exuding killing intent, had fought fiercely. After a long, grueling fight, they succeeded in defending the forbidden ground of Sacred Wrym Summit. They had thwarted the Hall of Gods' plan to destroy the Dracan force.At that instant, Dustin seemed to sense something and suddenly looked up. Through the mist and darkness, he pinpointed Arion's figure hovering above. Arion smiled faintly and nodded at Dustin before disappearing again.Crossing several mountains in mere seconds, Arion arrived above the Sacred Wrym Summit's grand hall. Below, the discipl

When the dust finally settled, Arion was the only one left standing.Bailey, Willem, Anthony, Batuul, the three elite assassins from Eskus, and several gods from the Hall of Gods were either dead or gravely injured.Willem's body had been blasted into countless pieces. Each fragment wriggled on the ground as it struggled to piece together. Batuul fared even worse. He was utterly obliterated, leaving no trace behind, not even ashes. On the contrary, Bailey and the three Eskus assassins had both their arms severed and were gravely wounded. Though Anthony's limbs were still intact, his crushed internal organs left him coughing up blood. The backlash from the demonic blade had also taken a devastating toll on his body. He now appeared decades older, his face gaunt and hollow, his hair gray. His frail frame made him look like a man standing at death's door."H-How is this possible? No… this can't be happening!" Bailey's expression was a mixture of shock and disbelief as he stared a

Arion's sudden appearance caught everyone off guard. They stared, wide-eyed and slack-jawed. What was going on? Wasn't Arion already dead? How could he be standing there in front of them? Could it be a ghost?They exchanged baffled looks, and their faces were filled with disbelief. They couldn't make sense of it. How could Arion possibly be alive? It was beyond their comprehension."You… you're not dead?" No one was more shocked than Willem. After all his effort, he had finally found the chance to bite into Arion's neck and drain every drop of his blood.He was certain Arion had died—there was no way he could have survived. But if Arion was dead, who was this person standing before them?"Everyone, calm down!" Bailey spoke up. "Arion's body is still over there. This person must be an imposter."At his words, everyone turned to look at the corpse lying nearby.Bailey was right. The body was still there, and there was no way Arion could still be alive. So, the person in front o

As the Snow Maiden attacked, Batuul's illusory Elephantine stirred into action. With a mighty roar, it charged forward and slammed into Arion. Its tusks, sharp as spears, aimed directly at his chest.Caught in the swirling snow, Arion couldn't avoid the attack and quickly invoked the Glow Incantation to shield himself. The tusks collided with the barrier in a deafening crash. The impact sent Arion flying, and the golden light surrounding him shattered like glass. Clearly, the illusory Elephantine's strength had far exceeded the Glow Incantation's limits.As Arion was tossed into the air, the three-headed, six-armed Chimera Wrath seized its moment. With six different weapons in hand, it launched a relentless assault.Arion swung his sword to block but was driven further back with each blow. With no solid footing in midair, his agility was useless against the onslaught.After several exchanges, one of the Chimera's weapons struck Arion squarely in the chest, sending him crashing to

After a prolonged battle, Anthony and the others finally realized the gravity of the situation.Arion wasn't just a sword master but also had unpredictable agility. No matter how they attacked, they couldn't even land a single hit. On top of that, his sword was a constant threat.If this deadlock continued, the situation would only worsen. So, when Bailey spoke, they knew it was time for decisive action, and there was no turning back. It was either kill or be killed.At that moment, Anthony, who had been holding back, finally decided to use his ultimate technique. He bit his finger and smeared the blood across his blade. His lips moved quickly as if whispering an incantation."Snow Maiden, arise!" As soon as the words left his mouth, he swung his sword. A white figure shot out and hovered in the air. It was a woman with fair skin and mesmerizing beauty. Her long hair cascaded like a waterfall, her dress was as white as snow, and her eyes had a sinister gleam.The moment she appe

"How many tricks does this old geezer have?"The impact of the divine talisman explosion left everyone both shocked and enraged. No one had expected that Arion would still manage to unleash such a powerful supreme divine power even after the Glow Incantation was broken and the lightning strikes failed to cause any harm.The impact of the thousands of divine talismans exploding at once was terrifying. Only the strongest fighters—Willem, Bailey, and Batuul—could withstand it. The rest of the group was severely injured. At that moment, they finally realized the terrifying strength of Dragonmarsh's strongest man."Impressive," Willem said, landing smoothly after being thrown back. His withered skin was now covered in cracks, and blood oozed from it.Most of the shockwave from the explosion had hit him directly. Despite his impressive defense, he still took some damage. However, these injuries were nothing to him. His wounds had already healed within a few seconds, as if nothing had hap

Willem's wings, black as night with a metallic sheen, erupted from his back. Fully extended, they stretched over 30 feet. With a gentle flap, a storm of wind and eerie howls swept through the air. The sheer force was intimidating to behold.His appearance had also undergone a drastic transformation. Willem's once-handsome face was now gaunt, his skin wrinkled, and his cheekbones jutted out. Fangs protruded from his mouth, and two sharp horns sprouted from his head. He had grown taller, but his body was unnaturally thin, with his ribs and sternum visible beneath his skin. From a distance, he looked like a towering, monstrous skeleton. It was an unsettling sight that sent a chill down anyone's spine.This was Willem's ultimate form. After the transformation, his speed, strength, defense, and reflexes were greatly enhanced. His thirst for blood grew even more intense, turning him into a bloodthirsty demon.The gods, who had expressed dissatisfaction moments ago, now stood paralyzed
