Upon hearing these words, everyone’s expressions darkened. They sensed the situation was about to take a turn for the worse, filling them with unease. Attacking Adrian now seemed like a risk with unimaginable consequences. After all, they had witnessed how easily he took down a Nascent in just a few moves.

No one wanted to meet the same fate, but the thought of letting Adrian claim such a powerful spirit treasure for himself was unbearable. So, they waited, hoping for an opening.

Greg quickly understood their thoughts, a sharp glint forming in his eyes. This was the perfect setup. If the crowd attacked Adrian, he could strike at the last moment and crush Adrian underfoot, but he couldn’t act alone. He wasn’t that sure of himself. Adrian’s strength was terrifying, and the energy fluctuations from his earlier display had made that clear to everyone.

Suddenly, the sound of concealed daggers slicing through the air interrupted the tension. No one saw who threw them, but the weapons shot

    Greg’s sole focus was to kill Adrian, determined to claim his head. "Damn you! I’d like to see how you escape now. If you want this spirit treasure, then go to hell for it!" His voice rang out with fury.Adrian responded with a cold laugh. "Do you really think you're guaranteed to win?"From Adrian’s perspective, Greg was far too confident. Did the latter really believe he had what it took to defeat him? Even with a crowd charging at him, Adrian didn’t flinch.Tyron, standing nearby, couldn’t fathom what Adrian was thinking. In such a fierce and terrifying situation, most would have fled. But Adrian remained calm, facing everything head-on. His composure was beyond what anyone could understand.With a flash of killing intent in his eyes, Adrian said, "Tyron, stay behind me. It won’t take long to deal with these ants."Tyron froze, uncertain about what Adrian had up his sleeve. He wondered whether Adrian could really take on the overwhelming number of enemies before them.The crow

    At that moment, they all felt the terrifying power surrounding them. Adrian looked like a demonic god, wielding an invincible force that left everyone paralyzed with dread. Suspended in mid-air, his body glowed with brilliant golden light intertwined with streaks of green, amplifying the fearsome aura that gripped the onlookers. None of them had anticipated his true power, and as they watched in horror, their fear only grew.Unbeknownst to most, Adrian had already launched an attack from another direction. Greg, quick to notice, was startled and shouted in alarm, “This scoundrel! He’s planning a sneak attack!”Turning to counter the strike, Greg sensed the unusual nature of Adrian’s movements, while the rest remained oblivious to the imminent danger. But it was too late. Adrian had already initiated another attack from a different angle, creating the illusion that there were two of him. The crowd was horrified by the sight."How is this possible? Isn’t there already one of him over

    At this moment, Greg was consumed by frustration. No matter how hard he speculated, he couldn't comprehend what Adrian had experienced. Fueled by anger, he charged madly toward Adrian. In Greg's mind, eliminating Adrian was imperative. He couldn’t shake off the humiliation he had suffered at Adrian’s hands.Adrian’s nonchalance only intensified Greg's resolve. He understood that between him and Adrian, only one could emerge as the true chosen one. Conflicts often ended with one side utterly defeated. The first to show weakness would be deemed inferior, destined for a miserable fate.As violent energy shook the corridor, Adrian observed the group with a calm, faint smile in his eyes. Suddenly, his expression shifted. He sensed something unsettling in the corridor. Surprise flickered across his face.He hadn't anticipated such fluctuations in this passageway. It seemed staying here much longer wasn't wise. But the others, blind to the disturbance, continued their frenzied assault on h

    After all, geniuses tend to be vengeful. If a formidable talent like Adrian chose to seek retribution, it would spell endless trouble for everyone involved. The reality was clear—offending Adrian would lead to unimaginable consequences. He was not someone to be trifled with. If they dared to challenge him, the outcome would be dire. They would either die, or he would.Adrian’s gaze was icy, filled with fury. From his perspective, those before him would have to pay dearly for their actions.“What a bunch of idiots! Now I'll show you my true power!” With that declaration, Adrian threw a punch with nothing but his bare hands, relying solely on his physical strength to confront the crowd.In an instant, three versions of Adrian merged into one, while the distant figure of him vanished. Greg sneered coldly upon witnessing Adrian's three separate forms coalesce into one.“Hmph! I knew his power was limited. That earlier attack must have drained him, leaving him much weaker now,” Greg pro

    This feeling… It was usually something he inflicted on others. Greg couldn’t understand why he was experiencing it now, and he stared at Adrian in disbelief.‘What’s happening to him? Why is this happening?’ he thought.The power radiating from Adrian was terrifying, and Greg realized he was no match for him. Once this thought crossed the latter’s mind, it felt impossible to shake. His expression darkened further, his desire to kill Adrian burning even brighter.“What a bunch of trash, especially you. What’s wrong? Are you scared? Keep going!” Adrian taunted, clearly not satisfied yet. His eyes, filled with killing intent, scanned the crowd for someone to challenge.The crowd grimaced, their anger rising. Adrian’s arrogance made them want to kill him, and Greg felt particularly targeted. If he didn’t step up now, he would lose all his dignity. Everyone was looking at him with strange expressions. After all, he had been the loudest earlier. Yet after just one clash, he seemed to hav

    Adrian’s earlier words revealed a harsh truth. By calling everyone useless, he was specifically pointing out Greg’s incompetence. As a result, Greg stood there like a turtle retreating into its shell, too afraid to advance. Naturally, the crowd saw him as completely worthless. Although Greg was considered a prodigy, he appeared no better than trash in Adrian’s presence.This situation only intensified the crowd's disdain for him. Every prodigy had their pride, and Adrian’s insult had been particularly harsh, leaving Greg utterly humiliated. The crowd's doubtful gazes turned toward him.Greg could feel their disdain, which ignited his anger. It was clear that no one here intended to follow him.“You’re just a bunch of useless cowards. Fine, stay here and wait all you want!” he shouted before charging into the golden light, clearly following closely behind Adrian.Greg thought that although he couldn’t defeat Adrian now, he believed the right opportunity would come. He wanted Adrian

    The white light rippled like water, and Adrian charged into it without the slightest hesitation. Tyron followed closely behind.Adrian was calm and relaxed as if completely unbothered by the danger. Tyron hadn’t expected Adrian to move so quickly, leaving him utterly astonished. Adrian’s speed was shocking, and his strength was equally terrifying, making it hard for anyone to comprehend. Tyron couldn’t understand how Adrian had become so powerful, but he knew he had to follow him.At that moment, he realized he had no choice but to trust Adrian. Only by doing so could they continue forward. Adrian seemed to be the key to overcoming all obstacles. It felt as though no challenge could bring Adrian down. Following him through traps and dangers now seemed like nothing at all.Boom!Wherever the white light touched, violent tremors erupted, causing everyone to flinch in shock. Adrian, though, pressed forward without hesitation. Fearsome energy surged from his hands as if he intended to

    Adrian smiled calmly and said, “What’re you talking about? Since you came in with me, we’re allies. We’ll need to support each other as we walk this path together.” He already considered Tyron a friend and treated his friends accordingly. Tyron felt a wave of guilt wash over him. From the beginning until now, he hadn’t been able to help Adrian much at all. In fact, it was Adrian who had constantly assisted him, making Tyron feel somewhat useless.“Don’t overthink it. Let’s keep moving forward. When we come across something good, I won’t hesitate to claim it,” Adrian encouraged.“Of course, Mr. Adrian. Your strength is well-deserved. I’m just riding on your coattails. All these treasures should be yours. I’m only tagging along and picking up scraps,” Tyron replied awkwardly. It was indeed how he felt. Ever since he started following Adrian, he sensed he had no real contribution to make, merely benefiting from Adrian’s efforts.Suddenly, a sound echoed from the distance, causing Adr

Let's see how you survive this. With the gravitational force on you now exceeding 80,000 units, you're nothing but an overconfident ant."Adrian shot him an icy glance. "Oh?

When he chose to kill, he made sure the deed was done.That was his nature—a man of decisive action. With calm resolve, he resumed his ascent, stepping deliberately and methodically up the heavenly stairs.From below, Andy watched and scoffed. "Haha, I knew Adrian wasn't ordinary.

    In response to the Holy Son's mocking words, Adrian glanced at him.How ridiculous. Did the Holy Son truly think his derision would matter? Did he believe Adrian was incapable?"Is that so?" Adrian retorted coldly, then leaped forward, closing the gap and standing alongside the Holy Son with a single bound.The Holy Son sneered.Adrian attempting to stand shoulder to shoulder with him? Laughable!He felt the gravitational force on Adrian had reached an astonishing 40,000 units, while he was enduring only 30,000 units.If Adrian dared push forward, the force would rise to 60,000 units—a weight even a seasoned body expert would struggle to withstand.One move from the Holy Son, and Adrian would be crushed and thrown off the steps."Adrian, be careful!
