Yet Euphemia merely stared at it coldly and said faintly, What is the point of playing dead? You wished to devour me, did you not? Come. I have come to you.Even after her words fell, the corrupted being remained completely motionless.Euphemia took a step forward. In the next instant, she suddenly swung her Green Bamboo Serpent Staff sharply toward her right. Venomous radiance surged forth, and a faint, delicate fragrance spread throughout the bamboo grove.The staff wreathed in toxic light struck a severed limb that had lunged violently toward her. Flesh on the limb seemed to wriggle incessantly.Euphemia unleashed her soul power and blasted the limb apart, scattering pale flesh and bone across the ground.Amid the burst of splattered gore, an imperceptible streak of black light suddenly shot straight for Euphemia’s glabella. It traveled at such blistering speed that even ordinary Elementary Heavenly Spirit Realm cultivators would fail to detect it.However, when the black light was

She felt a flicker of gratitude toward him, yet having always been sharp and hostile toward Barber, she could not bring herself to voice her thanks, and her tone remained stiff and cold.Barber paid it no mind. My golden armor protects me well. I am unharmed.Isabel muttered under her breath, and in the end said nothing more.Dale smiled and said, Third brother, you’ve arrived just in time. We discovered a cache of Soul Gold Dew here, and then they showed up. That is how the fight began.Albert nodded. He had already guessed as much.As they spoke, however, Sweetie’s gaze turned icy. She showed not the slightest hint of fear at Albert’s arrival. On the contrary, she raised her fiery jade ruler and pointed it at him challengingly.If I am not mistaken, you are Albert, the Dragon Chief of the Twentieth Legion of the Martin Supreme Clan of this generation. I wonder if your title is truly well-deserved.Albert smiled. What is it you wish?He had no intention of antagonizing the disciples

Thurman smiled and replied, The various Ancient Academies are both rivals and allies to one another, so their ties are naturally close. On occasion, disciples from different academies even need to cooperate for special missions.A faint light flickered in Albert’s eyes as he smiled. Senior Thurman, do you know anything about the Sacred Light Ancient Academy in Central Divine Land? I have a very close friend who entered it not long ago. With her natural talent, she must have been admitted directly into its Starry Heaven Academy.Thurman was instantly astonished. Oh? Directly into the Starry Heaven Academy? Your friend must possess extraordinary, peerless aptitude.At that moment, Sweetie beside them suddenly looked thoughtful and spoke up. I have heard some news regarding the Sacred Light Ancient Academy. Word has it that several new disciples joined their Starry Heaven Academy this year, and one young woman among them has caused an enormous stir throughout the entire academy.Thurman

Nitia had actually been eyeing Euphemia’s Green Bamboo Serpent Staff moments earlier. The oppressive energy emanating from it was unmistakable. Now that Euphemia held it up clearly, the others caught sight of three faint purple vertical marks upon the artifact, and gasped aloud in unison:A Triple Purple Eye Artifact?!Nitia herself had never possessed an artifact of such exalted grade. Though treasures of this caliber existed among the Dragon Fang Guards, their exchange value was astronomically high, and she had only ever gotten to admire them from afar.And Albert had gifted such an invaluable treasure straight to Euphemia? What exactly was the bond between the two of them?Nitia spoke with obvious envy. Cousin Albert is truly generous.Albert let out an awkward chuckle and explained, We recently ventured into a blessed land, but also encountered an extremely deadly peril. Senior Sister Euphemia’s original artifact was destroyed in the process. I happened to obtain this one afterwar

Sweetie said calmly, Albert is far from as ordinary as he appears. He possesses the rare Three Souls. Thanks to his three souls, his soul power is vastly more abundant than ordinary cultivators. I crossed blades with him once before, and his soul power is formidable. He surely holds countless hidden trump cards as well. That is why his clash with Karl ranks among the most elite battles of their generation.Who do you favor, Senior Sister?Sweetie shook her head. I cannot tell. Albert has his secrets, and Karl is no simple foe either. This fierce clash between two powerhouses will be well worth watching.As they spoke, Karl fixed Albert with a bloodthirsty glare. His fingers tightened around his heavy spear. The weapon bore a dark crimson hue, as if soaked in layers of dried blood, its color deepening nearly to black. Faintly visible upon its shaft were two indistinct vertical purple marks, breathing in the energy of heaven and earth.Dual Purple Eye Artifact — Mountaincrush Spear.Thi
