James was taken aback.He quickly thrust his sword at Yaakov.Yaakov withdrew his sword and jumped back as he dodged.James lowered his head and saw blood flowing out from his chest.Yaakov’s attack had broken through his defenses and managed to injure him. Fortunately, it was not a fatal blow.“Is that all there is to an eighth-ranked grandmaster?”James had come to understand Yaakov’s strength.“Well, then. Let’s see how you like this!”James leaped up and his body rose tens of meters in the blink of an eye. The Blade of Justice in his hands began to shine brightly, and Sword Energies began to form.In an instant, thirteen Sword Energies circled menacingly in the air in front of him.They floated horizontally in the air and their blades glinted threateningly as if they could easily split Heaven and Earth asunder.“T-Thirteen Heavenly Swords?”Yaakov's face paled.The people from Sullivan and Lee families watching from a distance also backed away at the sight of the fable

“Grand Patriarch Yaakov!!!”The Johnstons immediately rushed over to Yaakov’s fallen body.Yaakov’s chest was bleeding continuously and heaved painfully with each breath.His blood stained the ground red.Yaakov’s family members propped him up gently.“Haha…”Yaakov knew he was dying but chuckled with satisfaction of having gotten rid of a problem for his family before his death.He laughed and laughed until his very last breath.“Ahh, Grand Patriarch…”The Johnstons wept bitterly.Meanwhile, James also collapsed on the ground and passed out.Whoosh!At that moment, a figure quickly rushed out from the shadows.It was Simon who had been secretly watching everything.He quickly held up James’ hand and checked his pulse.Shortly afterward, Jackson rushed over as well and asked anxiously, “How is he doing, Grandpa?”Simon said solemnly, “He’s in a terrible state. His meridians are broken, and his internal organs have sustained severe damage.”He quickly pulled James up an

He also managed to snatch a core with his strength and the assistance of his subordinates. Now, he was planning to snatch away the cores that other people had taken.However, he was unsure who else had snatched a core.“This sure was worth the trouble. After consuming it, my strength will increase significantly, and the realm of the ninth rank will be within my grasp.” Lucjan smiled to himself faintly and quickly left to search for the others who might have taken a piece of the core.He did not bother himself with James and Simon anymore because his numerous subordinates were strong core members of the Gu Sect.The weakest ones were at the peak of the sixth rank, and many of them were of the seventh rank. Simon who was low on True Energy would find it challenging to escape with them chasing after him.After Jackson departed, he quickly searched for Bennet and Tobias.At that moment, the two had already stepped outside the range of Mount Thunder Sect’s territory.Bennet placed To

Everyone was paranoid that Thomas would suddenly attack them.He was infamous for being a ruthless man.In order to kill the Spirit Turtle, that calculative man schemed and dragged in all the martial artists of the world into his plan.Thomas looked at everyone but remained silent.He looked at Thea and said, “You stay with them, Thea. If James is alright, he’ll arrange for you guys to be rescued. I’ll continue searching the area.”Thomas was determined to find the secret hidden underground.He planned to turn around and search the area again.“Alright.” Thea nodded.Thomas said nothing to the other martial artists and walked away coldly.After he left, the other martial artists finally felt like they could breathe again.Meanwhile, Simon was still escaping along with James’ unconscious body in his arms. However, his True Energy had been rapidly depleted as he was constantly using it to escape.Unable to spend more True Energy, they quickly hid behind a rock. After placing

Callan rushed over, got on his knees, and picked up James' hand to check James’ pulse. After a while, his lips curved into a deep frown and he asked, “What happened for him to sustain such terrible injuries? His internal organs have all sustained some form of damage, and his meridians have been shattered. It’s already a miracle that he’s still breathing right now.”Bennett sighed. “This kid is too tender-hearted. After defeating Yaakov, he showed him grace and allowed Yaakov to escape with his life. However, Yaakov put everything he had into an underhanded sneak attack and severely injured him.”Callan stood up, looked at Bennett, and said, “Bennett, I know the Candes have unparalleled medical skills, but there’s nothing you can do to help him in this state… Fortunately, I’ve got a method to save and keep him alive, but…”“But what?”Bennett stared hard at Callan.He began guessing the identity of the person before him. Who exactly was this ambiguous old man?Among the best of th
