An explosive shockwave erupted from the collision of their fists, rippling outward in a powerful, circular wave.The sheer force of the blast produced a loud bang as it shattered the ancient towering trees around them. Even the ground beneath Xayne and Campress could not withstand the impact of two rising Divine Commanders clashing, and it cracked and crumbled.To everyone's astonishment, Xayne stood firm, unharmed after withstanding Campress's punch.Campress narrowed his eyes, landing gracefully and stepping back several paces. He stared in disbelief at Xayne, whose feet were now embedded in the fractured ground. A smile crept across his face. "Impressive, King of the North. You withstood my punch. Such strength is indeed terrifying. Honestly, I'm reluctant to kill you. With your talent, why not join the Duart family? Become my adopted son, and I will ensure your safety."Campress had developed a genuine appreciation for Xayne's potential. At his age, possessing such power was
With a single move, Draven was defeated.This was the power of a rising Divine Commander. Even a Celestial Warrior was like an ant in the face of such overwhelming strength.Theodora glanced at the rolling, incapacitated Draven, then turned and strode toward the fiercely battling Xayne.Suddenly, a cold wind swept from behind, followed by the icy gleam of a dagger aimed at her back.Theodora frowned in anger. With a swift sidestep, she raised her hand, executing a formidable Eight Trigram Palm toward the assailant.Her palm struck Draven squarely in the chest, sending him flying several meters away again.Draven tumbled to the ground, his chest and back wracked with excruciating pain. He spat out several mouthfuls of blood, his eyes bloodshot. He raised a trembling hand to wipe the blood from his mouth, clutching the dagger tightly as he glared defiantly at the enraged Theodora.Theodora, seeing Draven’s determination, frowned and questioned, "Why are you doing this? You’re no m
The dark sky was split by lightning, and a loud crack sound rang.Soon, raindrops began to fall from the sky, steadily growing heavier, and splashing on the ground. It raised dust, mixing with the blood pool beneath Draven.The air was thick with the scent of earth and blood.At that moment, Xayne, who was engaged in a fierce battle with the Campress, Iyas, and Crawford, had sustained numerous injuries. His blood-soaked body stood as a testament to the brutality of the fight.When Xayne saw Draven lying lifeless in the blood pool, an overwhelming fury and battle intent erupted from within him like a dragon's roar piercing the heavens."Draven!"In a split second, Xayne delivered a punch so powerful, it produced a boom. It clashed directly with Campress's fist, forcing him back several steps.Simultaneously, he hurled his Ravenclaw Dagger, striking Iyas's black-gold dagger, driving him back as well.Then, he lunged forward, releasing flying needles that collided with the silver
Xayne stood with his back to the four men, his presence as overwhelming as a tidal wave, dominating the entire scene. The air around them fell into a deathly silence, the only sound the howling wind tearing through the valley. A chorus of eerie wails echoed through the gorge, reminiscent of an army clashing on a battlefield. The relentless clanging of swords and spears filled the air.Iyas let out a furious roar, his golden dagger flashing with a cold, deadly gleam as if it could cut through anything in its path. He lunged at Xayne's back, screaming, "Xayne! Die!"The dagger was mere inches from Xayne's heart when Iyas felt it stop. No matter how hard he pushed, the blade would not budge. An immense pressure emanated from Xayne, disrupting the very atmosphere around them. The elite dagger, usually unstoppable, could get no closer than an inch from Xayne's body. Despite using every ounce of his strength, Iyas could not drive the blade further.Looking down, Iyas saw a chain with
At that moment, Xayne seemed like a demon, his entire being radiating a terrifying killing intent.Above, the sky churned with dark clouds, thunder flashing, and rain pouring down in torrents. Xayne stood beneath the storm, eyes blazing red with fury and murderous intent, resembling a vengeful devil."You, Iyas, deserve to die!" Xayne declared. "I'll be the first to cut you down!"With those words, Xayne moved like a phantom, disappearing from the four family heads. In a flash, a brilliant silver arc sliced through the air, aiming straight for Iyas's heart. Xayne appeared before him instantly, his fist hurtling toward Iyas's chest with explosive force.Simultaneously, Campress reacted in shock, launching a punch from the side, crackling with explosive energy, aiming at Xayne's flank. Crawford also sprang into action, firing dozens of needles from a distance to block Xayne's path. Theodora would not be outdone. She charged forward, raising her hand to strike at Xayne's exposed bac
Each stomp of Xayne’s foot was like a thunderclap, booming and powerful.Xayne was engulfed in a frenzy of rage, each blow driving Theodora deeper into the ground. Her legs were completely buried, and blood spurted from her mouth.On the side, Campress and Crawford finally reacted, charging forward."Xayne! Prepare to die!" Campress roared, his fists carrying a deadly intent and overwhelming power, striking at the airborne Xayne.Xayne narrowed his eyes and leaped back several steps, his gaze cold and focused on the approaching man.Suddenly, the two clashed in a thunderous battle, each punch landing with a resounding impact and loud booms.Xayne met Campress's punch head-on, the force of their collision spreading out in a shockwave. Both were pushed back several steps before regaining their footing.Campress stood firm, his eyes cold and filled with shock as he stared at Xayne, his expression dark and grim. ‘How is Xayne getting stronger the more he fights?’ This was the la
Xayne was sent flying by the punch, his body skidding across the ground for several meters before coming to a halt. Covered in blood, he struggled to his feet, gripping the blood-stained Ravenclaw dagger. Bent over, he spat out blood, a grim smile playing on his lips. As he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes blazed with rage.Campress, his muscular frame exposed to the rain, glared furiously at Xayne. His body was covered in scars and wounds."Xayne! Surrender now! The outcome is inevitable! Kneel and beg for mercy, and maybe we'll leave your corpse intact!""Heh," Xayne scoffed, his eyes crimson with fury as he stared at the four family heads. "As the King of the North, I would never kneel and beg for mercy. Even if I die today, I'll take down two of you with me!""You're foolish and stubborn!" Crawford sneered, his eyes flashing with cold intent."If you seek death, we will oblige!" Campress's aura turned icy as he responded.The four surged forward, ready
Iyas looked down at the gold dagger piercing his chest, blood mingling with rainwater as it poured from the wound. He coughed up more blood, staring in terror at Xayne, who stood before him like the Grim Reaper. "You...you broke into the level of a Divine Commander?"Xayne kicked Iyas, sending him flying dozens of meters with a loud boom. Iyas crashed like a cannonball, creating a massive crater. He lay there in a pool of blood, rain pouring down on his motionless body. Staring at the dark clouds above, he continued to cough up blood, the dagger still lodged in his chest.The sight of Iyas's defeat left the other three family heads in shock, their faces filled with fear. They watched Xayne, realizing that his aura had changed. It was now overwhelmingly powerful, far beyond that of a rising Divine Commander. It was an aura that dominated the heavens and earth, making their souls tremble with the urge to kneel.Xayne had broken into the Divine Commander realm amid this dire battle
