King Damarjaya gazed upon his five thousand soldiers, who so far remained loyal to him. Their faces showed a fierce determination to defend their sovereignty.

Although the Sastrajingga Kingdom was not directly their homeland, in terms of territory, the Purareksa Kingdom was a small realm under the dominion of Sastrajingga.

Purareksa’s integration into the Sastrajingga Kingdom more than a decade ago was not the result of war, but of King Dharmalaksana’s clever political maneuvering.

Before joining Sastrajingga’s rule, Purareksa had suffered years of severe famine—something King Damarjaya had failed to anticipate. The royal officials also did not foresee the coming food shortage, forcing Purareksa’s ruler to seek aid from King Dharmalaksana.

In truth, the famine had struck Sastrajingga and other kingdoms as well, but they were far better prepared. King Dharmalaksana, long before the crisis, had already established vast granaries to store harvests in preparation for the hard times. Each

  • Rengga vs Ki Ageng Kolo Pati

    Rengga vs Ki Ageng Kolo PatiWithout showing any surprise at the young man suddenly appearing behind him, Tunjung Manik’s head rolled to the ground while his body was still standing upright.Concerned about the possibility of facing Poncokusumo who possessed the Rawarontek spell, Rega waited until Tunjung Manik’s body collapsed to the ground and confirmed that he was truly dead.Meanwhile, in another place, Rengga saw from about twenty meters away a figure he did not recognize, rampaging and slaughtering the soldiers of the Purareksa kingdom. Around that figure were dozens of men dressed entirely in red, with red headbands tied around their foreheads.Not wanting more casualties on his side, the great Commander of the Jaya Buana kingdom dashed forward to stop the massacre, only to realize the figure was none other than Ki Ageng Kolo Pati.“You’d better choose an opponent worthy of you. Aren’t you ashamed of fighting soldiers far beneath your skill? Let the soldiers fight soldiers. As

  • The Death of the Twin Tunjung

    The Death of the Twin TunjungBajul Kenanga immediately fell silent after Tunjung Seta snapped at him. All the more so when he glanced and saw Arya gazing at the three of them with a faint smile.“Forgive me. Dawang Awuk’s death has set my emotions aflame. You know well that he and I were as close as brothers, so I can’t think clearly right now.”“Don’t dwell on it. Consider it as if nothing happened. Now, the one we must fight is him. Let us fight with all our strength to finish him off!” replied Tunjung Manik, patting Bajul Kenanga’s shoulder.Tunjung Seta, however, reacted differently. If his twin could forgive Bajul Kenanga, he could not. To him, his fellow sect member had made a grave mistake by meddling in his personal matters. If the three of them managed to defeat Arya later, he would have his own reckoning with Bajul Kenanga.After Tunjung Manik spoke, they steadied their stances once more and prepared to attack Arya. Yet unexpectedly, another figure arrived and stood beside

  • The Dispute

    Dawang Awuk could not contain his shock as he watched Arya’s body dart toward him. What terrified him even more was the fact that the young man was grinning at him.“Damn it! How can he smile in a situation like this?” he muttered under his breath.On the other side, Bajul Kenanga along with the Twin Tunjungs could only hold their breath and gape at Arya’s decision. None of them had expected Arya to seize the opportunity created when Dawang Awuk became separated from the group.“Let’s help Dawang Awuk!” shouted Bajul Kenanga as he shot forward, leaving the Twin Tunjungs to immediately follow.But their actions came too late. Arya had already closed the distance with Dawang Awuk and unleashed a flurry of rapid strikes.At first, Dawang Awuk managed to dodge and leap away from the attacks. But the nature of the Dragon Hunter Sword technique was never to release its prey—it pursued wherever the old man tried to evade.“You won’t kill me that easily, bastard!” Dawang Awuk roared after nar

  • Combined Power

    Combined PowerThe emergence of the Fire Dragon Sword did not immediately help Arya defeat his five opponents with ease. Although he was several levels stronger than them, he could not freely unleash its full power because he was forced to divide his focus.On the other hand, Arya was also troubled by the Hellfire Formation used by the four elders of the Hell Bat Sect. This formation had advantages compared to others he had faced before, especially in terms of the power it generated.That much was understandable, considering the four warriors of the Hell Bat Sect had already reached a fairly high level of cultivation.“Ki Ageng, go help our troops! Leave this damned youth to us!” shouted Dawang Awuk.It was not without reason that the red-haired man ordered Ki Ageng Kolo Pati to support their soldiers. He considered the leader of the Blood Sword Sect incapable of adapting to their formation. Moreover, Ki Ageng Kolo Pati had been silent most of the time, unsure of what to do.The leade

  • Trying to Escape

    Trying to EscapeBenggala Sura gasped. If he hadn’t been quick enough to dodge, his body might have been pierced from head to rear like a roasted goat.“Damn it! My conviction was wrong,” Benggala Sura muttered. Only now did he realize that his opponent truly had the strength worthy of defeating Nyi Langkir.After throwing himself to the side and rolling across the ground several times, Benggala Sura was forced to leap far away as the long yellow iron staff swept toward his body.“Damn!” he cursed under his breath.Blarr!A small explosion rang out as dirt scattered under the strike of Rengga’s weapon.“How long do you think you can keep dodging?” Rengga taunted while using his now-shortened staff as a springboard to propel himself forward.Benggala Sura was stunned—the speed of his opponent suddenly multiplied several times.Bugh!A kick from Rengga landed squarely on the chest of the leader of the Fire Spear Sect, sending him staggering back more than a dozen steps before collapsing

  • The Twin Tunjung’s Assistance

    Feeling insulted by the young man who was still green, Ki Bajul Kenanga and Dawang Awuk immediately attacked Arya with high speed. Since both of them came from the same sect, their strikes were well-coordinated and precise, making it somewhat difficult for Arya to counterattack.Seeing the two elders of the Hell Bat Sect managing to pressure Arya slightly, Ki Ageng Kolopati also joined in to deliver his attacks.For a while, Arya was forced to defend himself against the barrage of blows targeting his body one after another. Bit by bit, the handsome young man began to adapt to their rhythm and started countering their strikes.From afar, Elder Wiyasa, who had chosen to rest on top of a tree, observed the battle with sharp eyes. He still wanted to see how the fight unfolded before deciding if Arya needed his help.The three black arts warriors who surrounded Arya leapt together, thrusting sharp attacks toward three of his vital points at once.Arya still had time to smile before swiftly
