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
Acheron was caught off guard by the beastly Predator's sudden attack. Before he could react, he was already thrown to the ground.After transforming, Predator wielded immense strength. He pressed Acheron down with claws resembling darksteel.Despite his efforts, Acheron couldn't break free. He had to resort to using his golden broadsword to defend against the beast's claws.The beastly Predator continued to roar and snarl viciously. Its bloodied jaws dripped a thick green liquid with a foul odor.As the liquid dripped onto Acheron's face, it sizzled and caused his skin to corrode. "Argh!" He gritted his teeth and cried out in agony.Yet, Acheron couldn't believe how fast the beastly Predator had recovered after being impaled in the chest earlier. It astounded him that the beast's wound had fully healed within minutes.Still, he couldn't understand why the beast targeted him."Get off me, you damn beast!" he shouted as his hands pushed against the blade with all his might. He tri
"Dead… dead? How is that possible?""I never expected Elder Wood from the Celestial Alliance, a prominent figure in the martial world, to die at the hands of a beast. It's truly unbelievable!""Well, he's too arrogant and overbearing. Guess karma finally caught up with him."The death of Acheron caused a stir throughout the crowd. Nobody expected such a mighty and arrogant figure to meet such an abrupt end. Predator took him down, pinned him, and bit off his head.What struck everyone as particularly unsettling was that Acheron didn't even have a chance to fight back."Elder… Elder Wood…?" Quincy, who had just arrived, stood frozen in place as he looked at the headless corpse before him.Acheron had always been a figure of power and authority, towering above Quincy and many others. Within the Celestial Alliance, his status was unrivaled.All the disciples from the Celestial Alliance who showed up for the tournament at Sacred Wrym Summit were under Acheron's supervision.Yet,
Marcia demonstrated her intelligence with a strategic move. Choosing to cut open the abdomen to reach the head could have startled the unconscious Predator, potentially putting herself in danger. That was why opting to kill him outright was a sensible choice.However, she overlooked a critical detail—the vast difference in their strengths. Taking down a grandmaster-level opponent, especially one with significant physical power, was no simple feat, even if they were unconscious.With a swift motion, Marcia drove her sword toward the Predator's chest. Before the sword tip could penetrate more than half an inch, Predator's reflexes kicked in. His muscles tensed instantly, exerting a powerful force that effectively trapped her sword in place."Hmm?" Marcia frowned and applied more pressure to push forward with her sword. But to her surprise, it wouldn't budge any further. Even more astonishing was that she couldn't withdraw her sword.She didn't know that Predator's muscles c
The two disciples from Sacred Wrym Summit moved with lightning speed, swiftly dislocating Predator's arms. In an instant, he was left powerless, his arms hanging limp after just one clash.But Predator wasn't about to give up. Despite his dislocated arms rendering him immobile, he still snarled and lunged at one of the disciples with his mouth wide open.The disciple held his ground, and a shimmering golden light enveloped his body.With a sharp impact, Predator rammed headfirst into the golden light and staggered back several feet. His face was a mess of blood and flesh, a few teeth knocked loose, leaving him dazed and swaying."What was that golden light just now? It looked so powerful," Ruby remarked, her eyes widening with surprise.She was familiar with Predator's strength. Even without his transformation or in his weakened state, he could still hold his own against formidable opponents like Quincy.Yet, his two attacks were effortlessly blocked by the golden light surroundi
Caleb's impressive techniques left the martial artists in awe. They couldn't believe that two simple pieces of paper had such immense power, effortlessly subduing the Predator."No way! He took down the leader just like that?" Ruby's eyes widened in astonishment. She hadn't taken Caleb seriously before, thinking he was too young and probably not very strong.However, the outcome surprised her greatly. The ferocious Predator was already knocked down before she could even process what was happening. Throughout the whole ordeal, Caleb hadn't even budged from his spot. He just casually waved his hand a few times."So this is the strength of the new generation genius from Sacred Wrym Summit? Truly remarkable!" Miles exclaimed in admiration. Sacred Wrym Summit was renowned for its array of esoteric techniques, including Glow Incantation, Stormcraft, and Divine Talisman. However, mastering any of these was extremely difficult.Most disciples of Sacred Wrym Summit primarily focused o
