Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 2206
The crowd was not shocked by Xayne's strength. What truly stunned them was how, after drinking that poisoned tea, his power did not diminish in the slightest. It made no sense. Even a Quin-Divine Commander would have seen their strength plummet under the effects of that poison. They began to wonder if Xayne possessed an immune system that neutralized all toxins.'Impossible!' Valedi shook his head vigorously. That kind of physique was the stuff of myths, nothing more. It had no place in the real world.What they did not know was that before arriving at Cyano Peak, Xayne had already swallowed an antidote pill of his own design. According to Heavenly Tome, this antidote could immune a person to any poison for twenty-four hours, making even the deadliest brew taste like sweet nectar.Still, when Xayne drank the tea, he felt a brief jolt, an unsettling pulse that quickly faded.Meanwhile, his Ravenclaw Dagger shot forward, carrying an unstoppable force as it clashed against Tariq's G
Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 2207
His long fingernails dug so deep into his palms that they pierced the flesh. Blood streamed through the gaps in his fingers, dripping steadily to the ground. He was furious.It was not the injury that enraged Madoc. It was the fact that Xayne was the first to openly defy him. He was an elder of the Kickboxing Association, a man whose mere presence demanded respect wherever he went.His words were supposed to be law. His commands were heeded without question. Yet, here was Xayne, treating everything he said like worthless trash."Xayne, do you not fear making enemies of the entire Kickboxing Association?" Madoc spat as his voice trembled with indignation."Fear?" Xayne scoffed, his tone icy. "Why should I fear those who are bent on killing me? You think I'd show mercy to people like you? Don't kid yourself."Madoc's eyes burned with rage. His veins bulged as he whipped his head toward the elderly man standing behind him."Elder Kilian!" he barked. "This insolent fool dares trample
Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 2208
"That's right," Kilian sneered. "If you're willing to bow to the Kickboxing Association, I'll spare your life today. Your fate will be left to Valedi."And since you've taken the Shaw family's fortune, you'll return it in full. On top of that, donate a billion dollars to the Kickboxing Association, and we'll consider the matter settled."Xayne burst into laughter, though his eyes burned with fury."Is this how the Kickboxing Association operates? You want me to grovel, hand over my assets, and then fork over a billion? Old man, it's broad daylight—what kind of delusional fantasy are you living in?"Kilian's brows twitched slightly. In his mind, the conditions he proposed were already lenient, but Xayne was not buying them.With a cold chuckle, Kilian took a step forward. The movement seemed casual, almost leisurely. But in the blink of an eye, he was right in front of Xayne.'Phatom Steps?!' Xayne's pupils constricted.Kilian had just demonstrated a technique thought to be long
Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 2209
The Kickboxing Association really knew how to cultivate talent.Xayne gritted his teeth. There was no way to dodge this strike. Behind him was the edge of the ring. Below, rows of weapon racks bristling with blades and spears. Even if he jumped off the ring, he would only be dancing on a bed of knives."Nice technique!" Xayne shouted as he raised his Ravenclaw Dagger, thrusting it furiously at Kilian's palm.Kilian's eyes lit up as Xayne finally went on the offensive. A smirk tugged at the corner of his mouth."Young man, you're still inexperienced!" As he spoke, Kilian shifted his weight ever so slightly.In a flash, his open palm transformed into a claw, talons curling like an eagle's as he swiped toward Xayne's throat.Xayne quickly retracted his strike, bringing the knife up to block. The metallic ring of impact echoed through the arena. Xayne's hand trembled as the vibration nearly knocked the knife from his grip.Kilian's sheer force was staggering, beyond anything Xayne h
Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 2210
Xayne let out a cold chuckle. At this moment, a plan was already forming in his mind.In the heat of the battle, a passage from the Heavenly Tome resurfaced in his memory. Until now, he had not realized it was an entire set of lethal moves.Regarding raw power and skill, Xayne was clearly at a disadvantage. His only chance to win was through clever, unpredictable techniques. There was no option for surrender. The word did not exist in Xayne's vocabulary.Across the ring, Kilian's face darkened with shock.Their last exchange had left his arm tingling, even trembling slightly.This kid was no ordinary fighter. He could still exert pressure on someone like Kilian despite only being at a Quad-Divine Commander level.Kilian was a master of three ultimate techniques.The first, Phantom Step, was a movement so fast it seemed supernatural. The second was Shadowless Palm, an unpredictable style that could take down even the most seasoned warriors. The third was Essence of Tiger and Drag
Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 2211
Xayne's legs bent slightly as he brought his knees crashing toward Kilian's chest in a powerful, knee-pressing attack."Damn!" Kilian broke into a cold sweat. If Xayne's knees hit his chest, the impact alone, combined with Xayne's strength, could crush him to death. Without a second thought, Kilian rolled to the side just in time, dodging the blow and ending up a meter away.Xayne's knees slammed into the arena floor, and the yellow granite beneath him split open with a deafening crack, leaving a deep fracture that sent shards flying in every direction. Gasps echoed through the crowd at the sight. Even Madoc in the stands couldn't help but rise from his seat in shock.The scene had unfolded too quickly. Before anyone could fully react, Xayne had turned the tables, going from defense to offense and forcing Kilian into a desperate scramble. The disciples of Cyano Peak collectively inhaled sharply, now realizing just how formidable Xayne truly was. Only someone of his strength could dr
Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 2212
Upon seeing Kilian teetering on the edge of death, Madoc's face turned ashen as he glanced at Xayne. At this moment, his only hope lay in Valedi defeating Xayne. But he wasn't sure that was even possible. If Valedi had the slightest confidence, he wouldn't have sought the support of the Valiant Union in the first place.Madoc's body shook slightly as he looked at the lifeless figure of Kilian, slumped in the human-shaped crater with occasional twitches. Kilian himself was at a loss. He didn't understand where he had gone wrong. Xayne's relentless attacks were so unique that even a seasoned warrior like him had never encountered such techniques. But now, no matter how unwilling he was to accept it, it was too late. Xayne's last kick had shattered his internal organs, and he could only lie in the pit, awaiting death.The other circle leaders, who had previously joined Madoc in condemning Xayne, now kept silent, their eyes filled with fear as they looked at him.Xayne turned slowly, lo
Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 2213
Xayne gave a slight nod to Valedi, signaling his agreement to spare Cyano Peak disciples.Valedi unsheathed his sword, holding it strikingly, its blade pointed at the ground. His eyes flashed with a chilling glint. As a core member of Cyano Peak, a circle renowned for its swordsmanship, Valedi had trained rigorously since childhood. With both talent and effort, he had achieved the rank of a Penta-Divine Commander at a young age.As he stood on the platform, Valedi's presence exuded an intense, cutting aura, like a sword drawn and ready to strike toward Xayne. The atmosphere turned sharp and foreboding.Xayne nodded, acknowledging Valedi’s level of skill. Though Kilian's strength was slightly superior, Valedi was only a step away from mastering Wind Spirit Limit Break. Against such an opponent, Xayne couldn't afford any carelessness. He raised his Ravenclaw Dagger, his gaze locked onto Valedi's sword.Valedi's wrist flicked without warning, and a silver flash sliced through the air

"There are more than thirty of them?" Xayne's heart pounded. That meant there were people even stronger than Horin."They're all waiting... waiting for the Ruins of the Dragon Clan to surface. In the end, anyone who craves that treasure will lose their life to greed. That is the cycle of the world." Horin gazed into the distance with a calm expression.He had not been avoiding conflict—he had been biding his time, accumulating power. Xayne could sense it in his eyes. There was ambition there. Every move Horin made served his ultimate goal. Even forging a connection with Xayne had been a calculated step to expand his influence.Xayne was a lone warrior, with no faction backing him. From Horin's perspective, all he had to do was lend Xayne a hand, earn his gratitude, and that was enough. That was why Horin had treated him so favorably. He had even shared some of his own insights, sharpening Xayne’s mindset, strengthening his abilities. Someday, Xayne might become one of his strongest ass

Xander sized up Fent and spoke coldly. "Fent, will you not turn back from your misguided path?"Fent struggled to his feet, his glare filled with hostility. He spat on the ground and growled, "I will never stand on the same side as Xayne! And you, mark my words—when I return from this mountain, it will be the day of your demise. Just you wait!" With that, he dragged his battered body away, limping down the mountain path without looking back. Stringer and Yeti flanked him, offering their support as he leaned on them for balance.At the Heavenly Water Sanctuary, to the east, a towering waterfall crashed down in torrents. To the west, a quiet river snaked through the valley, its current slow and steady. At the river’s heart lay a tranquil pool, its surface untouched by the world beyond.A hundred feet above the gorge, nestled into the cliffside, a cave overlooked the breathtaking scenery. The air was crisp and pure, carrying the scent of fresh earth and mountain blossoms."Senior, this p

Fent did not dare utter a single word of protest. Clutching his chest, he trembled as he knelt before Horin."How is your teacher?" Horin turned slightly, directing his question to Yeti."It has been a hundred years since I last saw him. I do not know," Yeti replied with the utmost reverence.Horin suddenly shifted his gaze to Xayne. "The secret of the Nine Luminaries of the Heavenly Stars… lies like the self—no thoughts, no desires, no life, no death! It does not rely on the power of the stars! The world follows the Path of Veyara, but what is the Path of Veyara? The radiance of the stars is not true light." His words were spoken softly as if he were merely muttering to himself—or perhaps offering Xayne a lesson.Xayne's heart stirred. Horin’s insight was astounding. The eight words—"No thoughts, no desires, no life, no death."—lingered in his mind. They placed Horin far beyond the comprehension of ordinary cultivators."Magnetic fields… are simply the pull of the stars. They have al
Chapter 2687
"Do you yield?" Horin gazed at Xayne with a calm, indifferent expression.Fent and the others broke out in a cold sweat. Just a single finger—that was all it took. It proved that Horin’s power was unfathomable. Standing before him, they felt no different from mere ants. But what was even stranger was the complete absence of dominance around Horin. No oppressive force. No overwhelming presence. It was as if he, the heavens, the earth—everything—were one. His arrival, and that single finger strike, felt less like an act of man and more like the will of the universe itself.Xayne was beyond shocked. But he was not the only one. Andrea, watching the live broadcast, sat in stunned silence. He could hardly believe what he had just witnessed. Because the one who had been defeated—was Xayne.'Then what realm had this man reached? Quad-Radiant Commander? Rising Numen Commander? Or had he already ascended to Numen Commander?' The mere thought sent shivers down Andrea’s spine.The Light Order’s
Chapter 2686
Xayne’s comprehension must have been immense—not only to counter Fent’s attack but to transform it into his own. Fent would have easily blocked this spear had he not taken that devastating palm strike.But now, his entire right side was caved in. One arm hung limply, the other completely empty. No sword, no weapon, not even a sliver of metal remained to block Xayne’s spear. It was no different from trying to catch a nuclear warhead.Yet, Fent had no choice. His retreat had already been cut off. If he turned his back, he would only meet a deadly stab from behind—a certain death sentence."If I die—then I'll drag you down with me!" Fent’s face twisted in fury. With only one thought in his mind, he lunged toward Xayne. He would deliver a lethal palm strike, even if it meant taking Xayne’s spear head-on."Master, he's going for mutual destruction!" From a distance, Esmond saw Fent shooting forward and cried out in alarm.But Xayne had already seen through him. And now, there was no turning
Chapter 2685
Xayne appeared to be at his limit, yet in truth, he was far from it. From the Heavenly Tome, he had already mastered the Seven-Star Footwork to perfection. With the slightest lift of his feet, his positioning shifted unpredictably.Three consecutive strikes from Fent were missed completely. The sheer force of the sword energy alone shattered the nearby trees into splinters.Xayne lunged forward, spear in hand, as a formation flared to life around him. In an instant, multiple spear projections erupted outward, each infused with lethal intent, hurtling toward Fent from every angle."Not good! Fall back quickly!" Elder Stringer suddenly shouted toward Fent.But at that very moment, just as the spears were about to pierce into Fent's body, a faint smile appeared at the corner of Fent's lips. It went exactly as he had planned. From the very start, his attacks had merely been probing. Through those exchanges, Fent had already figured out that Xayne's strength was high, but his battle exp
Chapter 2684
Just as Fent unleashed his full-force attack, far away in the Skyveria Cave Heaven within Nindragon Mountain, a young man with long hair slowly rose from a white lotus platform. He turned to the elderly figure beside him and murmured, "Fent of White Blossom Mountain?" The elderly figure was none other than Xander. Xander frowned slightly and said, "Your Excellency, in truth, the moment Killian's descendant was attacked days ago, forces from outer battlegrounds had already begun their plans. This time, they've dispatched eleven Radiant Commanders just to erase the last glimmer of hope for Drakonia. If Xayne dies, the three Dragon Hearts will be masterless, and the Ruins of Dragon Clan will never be opened again!" Xander spoke with no emotion as if merely stating an unrelated fact. Upon hearing this, Horin Tamie, the Creator of Light Order, turned his gaze toward Xayne's distant battlefield before suddenly tilting his head back and laughing. "Xander, are you truly not worried about
Chapter 2683
Xayne let out a sudden roar, and his Scarlet Dragon Lance erupted with a dazzling radiance. The void within hundreds of meters shuddered violently, while the earth beneath them cracked open with deep fissures. At this moment, the sky seemed on the verge of being torn apart by the overwhelming force. Xayne's aura surged to its absolute peak. "Elder Stringer! Hurry! You and I must join forces to kill him! He's burning his life force, he can't last much longer! Just hold out a little longer, and he will surely perish!" Fent roared at Elder Stringer. But there was no need for Fent to say anything; Elder Stringer and Yeti could already feel it. Xayne was igniting his very soul. Elder Stringer unleashed his full strength at that instant, his sword slashing toward Xayne with killing intent. They needed just five more minutes. Xayne's aura would surely weaken, and when that moment came, it would be the end of him. "Hold out? Do you think you have a chance to kill me?" Xayne let out a c
Chapter 2682
After the relentless battles, Xayne was clearly at his limit. Fent refused to believe that Xayne could still put up a fight. He could distinctly sense Xayne's aura weakening. As the saying goes, "Strike while the iron is hot." With a sudden tremor of his body, Fent flicked his wrist, and the sword he had tossed aside earlier shot back into his grasp. With a single thrust, his blade erupted with a dazzling silver radiance, peerless sword energy piercing straight into the sky. Fent wasn't regarded as the peak combatant among the eleven just because of his raw power. It was because he wielded a lost secret formation from White Blossom Mountain, the "Nine Luminaries of the Heavenly Stars."Strictly speaking, this formation surpassed conventional formations. It was a forbidden secret formation. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a peerless heavenly skill. The origins of the Nine Luminaries of the Heavenly Stars could be traced back to the first ancestor of White Blossom Mounta
