Upon hearing the command, over a dozen assassins immediately charged forward with their swords drawn.These assassins were swift and incredibly agile. They darted and weaved in unpredictable patterns, making it difficult to track their movements.Their unpredictable footwork was honed through hellish training. It was specifically designed to counter long-range attacks and had become almost instinctual for them."Everyone! Attack!"As the assassins launched their assault, martial artists in the vicinity drew their weapons and charged into the battle."Let's take them on!" Dalen shouted, charging forward with a bladed folding fan.Crystal and the others followed closely behind. They quickly formed a flying wedge to create a simple offensive formation.The sudden ambush briefly threw the assassins into chaos, but they quickly regained control. Swiftly, they divided into two groups to attack the enemies from front and rear. The clash erupted instantly as both sides engaged in comb
Predator had reached the late-stage grandmaster. So, his strength was comparable to that of the guildmasters of major guilds in Dragonmarsh. With a single swing of his sword, the power and destructive force were so terrifying that it sent shivers down the spines of Dalen and the others.Their greatest concern was the possibility that Dustin might not be able to withstand Predator's onslaught and end up being killed.Seeing the giant sword aura descending toward him, Dustin acted without hesitation. He swiftly raised his hand and countered with an upward strike.A thick white sword aura appeared, clashing with the red sword aura.Dustin's white sword aura spanned a mere three feet, dwarfed by the Predator's red sword aura, which stretched over 30 feet.The odds seemed overwhelmingly against him, like an ant challenging an elephant.However, Dustin's white sword aura effortlessly shattered the Predator's red sword aura upon collision.A deafening blast followed as the white swor
At that moment, Predator transformed into a terrifying bladestorm with his giant sword. Wherever the storm swept, man or object would be torn to shreds without mercy.The two warring parties, previously locked in fierce combat, were scattered and forced to stop fighting in the face of the relentless onslaught.This indiscriminate attack showed no mercy, sparing neither friend nor foe. Anyone caught in its path was doomed to certain death, a fate everyone desperately avoided.With each passing moment, the bladestorm intensified, growing larger and swirling faster as it approached Dustin."Hmm?" Dustin's eyebrow arched in surprise. Predator's move unleashed devastation that surpassed Dustin's cultivation. If used on the battlefield, it would be a deadly weapon capable of wreaking havoc.Even in one-on-one combat among the grandmasters, only a few could withstand such an attack. Dustin couldn't help but admit that Predator was indeed skilled."Cross Slash!" Dustin immediately rais
Suddenly, Predator let out a thunderous roar that echoed throughout the entire battleground. But what was truly unsettling was that it sounded more like a beast's growl than a human.Then, a shocking scene unfolded before everyone's eyes.Predator's body began to bulk up. His muscles bulged and tore through his ragged clothes and shoes.With another deafening roar, he propped his limbs on the ground and arched his back high. Thick, coarse black fur sprouted from his skin and soon covered his entire body.At first glance, Predator resembled a giant black bear but there was more to his transformation.As the black fur continued to grow, his facial features underwent a drastic change. The area below his eyes rapidly protruded while his teeth sharpened into pointed fangs. His hands and feet morphed into claw-like appendages that completed his terrifying transformation.When Predator roared for the third time, he had fully transformed into a ferocious beast.This beast defied classif
Dustin was well-versed and knowledgeable about creatures like werewolves and vampires in Streuqua. But facing something like Predator, who turned into a beast and became ten times stronger, was completely new to him.It showed that the mysterious assassin organization held significant power and influence. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to nurture so many elites.Thrown back by the impact, Predator tapped into his primal instincts. His form expanded even more, akin to an elephant's, while a dark haze enveloped him and radiated a sinister air.With its four limbs forcefully pushing off the ground, it lunged forward like a cannonball toward Dustin at terrifying speed."Hurricane Slash!"Dustin gripped his sword with one hand and swiftly delivered five consecutive slashes. The resulting sword auras intertwined, forming a massive net that bore down on Predator.A thunderous crash filled the air as Predator charged headlong into the net without hesitation. Five sword auras s
Three Frost Needles streaked through the night sky, each carrying a biting cold as they targeted Dustin's upper, middle, and lower vital pressure points."Hmm?" Dustin frowned and immediately raised his sword to block.The three needles struck the sword and instantly exploded into clouds of frost. Upon contact with the frost, the sword was immediately encased in ice.Simultaneously, a biting cold followed the frozen blade, spreading rapidly along his arm. In the blink of an eye, his hand holding the sword was frozen solid."Frost Needle?" Dustin's face darkened as his mystical pure energy surged within him.The icy mist around him quickly dissipated, and cracks formed on his frozen arm. With a shiver, the ice on his arm swiftly broke apart, reverting it to its normal state.Fortunately, he managed to avoid a direct hit from the Frost Needle. If it had struck him, it would have significantly damaged his body's functions. Despite his considerable strength, such an injury would ha
"So, you know the Behemoth Punch? Well, so do I!" Dustin snorted coldly. He didn't draw his sword but raised his fist instead. He gathered his mystical pure energy and punched the gilded tiger in the air.With a deafening roar, a large ivory tiger emerged from Dustin's body and ferociously charged at the gilded tiger. Both tigers were of similar size and equally intimidating.As they collided, a resounding boom shook the earth and flooded the surroundings with energy.The white and golden light erupted simultaneously and covered half the sky each. Powerful hurricanes radiated outward from the point of impact and demolished everything in their path.When the dust settled, everyone looked on in astonishment. Dustin and Acheron stood unscathed despite the clash and couldn't gain the upper hand over the other."No way! Dustin can actually go toe-to-toe with Acheron?" Miles's eyes widened, disbelief written all over his face.Acheron was one of the eight elders of the Celestial Al
In an instant, a golden broadsword materialized out of thin air.Everyone was stunned by Acheron's unusual technique.Without a word, Dustin effortlessly retrieved the sword lodged in the ground with a swift motion of his hand."Kid! You're going to regret your choices!" Acheron growled and raised the sword above his head. With a sudden burst of speed, he lunged forward like a cannonball and swung the sword fiercely toward Dustin's chest.Suddenly, Acheron's sword expanded to an impressive 30 feet in length, resembling a colossal blade of judgment.With incredible force, it hurtled toward Dustin.Dustin didn't dodge and stood his ground as he raised his sword to block the attack. The clash of blades sent sparks flying and unleashed a powerful explosion of energy.Despite the force of the impact causing the ground beneath him to collapse and crumble into a pit, Dustin remained unfazed and stood firm throughout the ordeal."How long do you think you can keep this up?"Acheron
