The practitioners wouldn't dare hide anything from Grandmaster Burke. They recounted the entire sequence of events from Remus entering the lake to his recent departure. Of course, they embellished the story by adding how he looked down on Ryunington."Is that true?"Grandmaster Burke was breathing heavily, full of excitement."We're telling the truth!""It's true!""Grandmaster Burke, we would never dare to deceive you!"Upon hearing that, Grandmaster Burke was more excited, his face turning rosier. If it were true, he wouldn't have to worry about anything. He would no longer need to care about who Remus was.However, he didn't express his opinion right away. Instead, he looked back at the Masters. He asked, "What do you all think?"A Master said, "The key to this matter is the Order of Nine Mysticisms. According to the Saint Master, the Order of Nine Mysticisms has already lost its significance and doesn't need to be respected any more. It should be related to this!"Another
Remus thought bitterly, "It's true to say that I can't always rely on external support. In the end, I can only depend on myself."Ever since he left the mountain three years ago, he had to rely solely on himself for everything. Sometimes, he wished he could get something without putting in the effort, but the reality was too harsh."The formation is all set. Let's go back to Centuria!" Remus slowly said.The reason he didn't leave was that he set up a small formation above Dragon Lake. It didn't cause any harm, but if any practitioner came out, he would know immediately.Anyway, Ryunington had long been his mortal enemy. He might as well take this opportunity to openly confront them.From now on, whenever he sensed someone coming out from Ryunington, he would come here immediately to block their way back and take them down.He would take down anyone who dared to challenge him!Ruby let out a chirp in response.Remus had no idea whether she was shy or not used to it. Even though
Grandmaster Burke's laughter was incredibly arrogant and deafening.Remus wasn't paying any attention to those words. He had only one thing on his mind—run!Staring at the water columns in front of him, he quickly channeled his spiritual energy, transforming it into a long blade to slash at them.Unexpectedly, when the long blade struck the water columns, it didn't slice through them. Instead, it produced a sound similar to that of metal clashing.There wasn't even the slightest ripple."How is that possible?"Remus was stunned. His Heaven Energy had always been unstoppable. It was rare for something like this to happen.Grandmaster Burke watched from behind leisurely and sneered, "You're wasting your effort for nothing. It's useless. This formation was set up by the Saint Master. He has already achieved Land Immortal!"Even if your spiritual energy is incredibly strong, it's useless against Land Immortal's Heaven Energy!"He seemed to be watching a weak struggling in the fina
When dealing with someone capable of defeating Grandmaster Merlion, he could test but couldn't underestimate Remus. If he made a mistake, it could be disastrous. He must eliminate Remus!In that instant, tangible water appeared in the space. It emitted chill and tightly enveloped Remus.Remus' speed significantly decreased as if moving in slow motion. A thin layer of frost also appeared around him."Freeze!" Grandmaster Burke shouted again.The water in the space instantly froze, making a cracking sound as it solidified. Instantly, it transformed into a massive block of ice several hundreds of feet in size, completely transparent."Attack!"The ice color abruptly changed, turning into a pale blue. It resembled ancient ice from a land of extreme cold.Remus was stuck in there and couldn't move.It wasn't only that frost was forming all over his body. He was also turning pale, and his eyebrows and hair had completely turned white from the cold.His eyes were filled with intense
The massive ice formation in the sky began to break apart. Fine cracks first appeared. Then, those cracks spread throughout the entire ice block. Finally, ice particles started to fall from it.The ice was falling like sand and gradually became faster. The falling ice particles created a curtain in the air, resembling a beautiful waterfall.Seeing the scene, all the practitioners widened their eyes, watching as the falling ice particles got closer to Remus.In only a few seconds, the falling ice particles finally reached Remus.With his hands behind his back, Grandmaster Burke smiled faintly. He knew this formidable practitioner, Thunderous God of War of Darsia, and the successor of the Order of Nine Mysticisms, would be shattered into countless tiny pieces and fall into the lake.Finally, the ice particles reached Remus' outstretched hand at the front.Everyone watched as all the ice around his hands melted away in every direction. But instead of falling apart as they expected,
As before, Remus was completely encased in ice. The ice was a deeper shade of blue and exuded an even greater sense of cold.Remus felt his throat itchy. It was a clear sign that the immense cold pressure was about to make him cough up blood. However, he forcefully swallowed it. It was a critical moment. He couldn't let anyone notice anything unusual."Freeze, attack, break!"Grandmaster Burke continued to emit spiritual energy.The ice particles quickly fell and landed on Remus. If the others looked closely, they would see that fine cracks had appeared on his skin, forming a grid pattern that matched the size of the ice particles.The reason he was able to resist the effects of the Nine Revolutions Ice was because of the protection from Heaven Energy. However, now that the Heaven Energy was nearly depleted, his body wouldn't be able to withstand it any longer.Fortunately, it only came close to breaking but didn't crack or shatter.Even though he possessed Heaven Energy and cou
There was an unprecedented silence.The dark clouds in the sky had disappeared, and the air currents had ceased.The lake's surface was calm.Grandmaster Burke stood in mid-air, dumbfounded.The practitioners stood still on a lake, wide-eyed and stunned.They were all staring at Remus. They couldn't comprehend how Remus could swallow that enormous sword.How was that even possible?Remus slowly said, "Have you forgotten that I follow the dark path? I rely on absorbing others' spiritual energy to become stronger. If you didn't attack, I wouldn't have any way to deal with you. But by striking with all your might, you're giving me spiritual energy!"Your full-power strike was effective. I feel like I'm back at my peak again!"Upon hearing that, they finally felt a constant rumbling in their heads.Especially Grandmaster Burke. He felt completely numb all over his body.Did Remus mean he initially had no way out, but that powerful strike had sent him spiritual energy?"That's i
"G-Grandmaster Burke!"The practitioners below witnessed the scene. They were so terrified that they were trembling and became incoherent. The person who fell was Grandmaster Burke, the first Grandmaster of Ryunington!How could he possibly lose?Although they had thought that probably only Saint Master could handle Remus, Grandmaster Burke should have been able to handle him effortlessly.Why did he die?The two halves of the corpse fell into the lake.The practitioners were screaming in fear. It was rare that practitioners could be scared to this extent.In the next moment, they noticed a dark figure coming down from above. It was none other than Remus."Master Cosby, I was wrong!""Please don't kill me. I was wrong!"They were begging for mercy, and even two of the practitioners were almost scared to death.Just as Remus was about to reach the lake's surface of the lake, a red figure suddenly flashed by and caught Remus. It was Ruby!Without Grandmaster Burke activating
