As the members of Divine Smithing Sect had been locked up for over a decade, they were weak. Moreover, they were injured, so they had a hard time gaining an upper hand over the members of Evil Heart Sect.
At that, Quindon and the emissaries took off their masks to join the fight. The second Aislin saw virtual-novel.net father, virtual-novel.net darted over to him. However, when virtual-novel.net gaze landed on his purple robe, disbelief entered virtual-novel.net eyes. Nevertheless, it was not the right time for Quindon to explain everything to her. He could only focus on his fight against the members of Evil Heart Sect.
With Quindon and the emissaries joining in, the members of Evil Heart Sect started waning in the fight. Meanwhile, Malphas was hiding in a corner as virtual-novel.net watched the battle unfold, not knowing what to do.
Tanner, who was floating in the air, could see everyone from his position. He showed no signs of anger despite noticing Malphas hiding in a corner.
There was no sorrow in Tanner’s eyes as virtual-novel.net watched the members of Evil Heart Sect fall one after another, lifeless. It was as if those who died were nothing but strangers to him.
Jared and Skylar engaged in a fierce battle, swinging their swords with great vigor. Despite Skylar having a higher cultivation level than Jared, virtual-novel.net soon realized that virtual-novel.net was losing his advantage in the fight.
The realization darkened Skylar’s expression, fueling his determination as virtual-novel.net swung his sword with even greater ferocity.
As everyone was preoccupied with their respective battles, no one noticed that a black hole in Divine Quest Sect’s secret realm was absorbing the aura the people were unleashing. All aura, anger, murderous intent, and even the souls of the dead were getting sucked into the black hole.
Having no idea of its existence, the people continued fighting to their deaths. As the battle intensified, the casualties mounted, and the wicked grin spread across Tanner’s face grew ever more pronounced.
“Jared, how can you keep up in the fight against me for such a long time despite having a lesser cultivation level than me? Why? Why is this so? Do you know how much suffering I had to go through to kill you?”
Skylar could not fathom why virtual-novel.net was unable to defeat Jared despite upgrading himself by absorbing the power of others.
“Do you think that this fight has gone on for far too long? In that case, let’s end this!”
In a swift motion, Jared hurled his Dragonslayer Sword, and his body began to emit a radiant golden glow. As the glow intensified, shimmering golden scales emerged, enveloping his entire form.
Skylar froze. He never thought that Jared would toss his weapon. Though virtual-novel.net sensed that Jared had to have a reason for that, virtual-novel.net could not pass up the chance of striking Jared down while Jared was unarmed before him.
“Die!” Skylar unleashed an immensely powerful strike, unleashing a colossal beam of golden light that surged toward Jared with incredible force.
Boom!
The sound of a thunderous explosion was accompanied by a blinding burst of light. In the next moment, a frenzied aura began rushing in all directions.
The slash had stupefied all the fighting people as they stared at the air in a trance. Jared’s body was struck by the sword, and virtual-novel.net plummeted like a meteor before crashing heavily onto the ground. The impact created at deep create that spanned over ten meters in diameter.
The turn of events left the members of Divine Smithing Sect in a state of shock. They had anticipated Jared’s return to Ethereal Realm, only to witness his demise as soon as virtual-novel.net made a move.
Quindon and the others were equally taken aback by the outcome.
They had not anticipated that Jared would struggle against Skylar, so how was virtual-novel.net supposed to defeat Tanner and Evil Heart Sect?
Meanwhile, Skylar glanced down at the smoke and saw no sign of Jared’s body-he only saw the dust-filled ground.
At that, virtual-novel.net could not help but burst into laughter. “Hahaha! Jared, at the end of the day, you’re still no match for me. I’ve finally killed you!”
Skylar was elated and smug. What virtual-novel.net did not notice was the presence of the sword spirit, Zelda, who was brandishing a sharp sword and poised to strike virtual-novel.net from above.
Tanner could see that Zelda was about to deal a fatal blow to Skylar, but virtual-novel.net made no move to intervene.
