Chapter 145
"I wonder what brings Your Excellency here today..."
"Shut up." Alex’s expression was indifferent. His voice cold as frost.
"A treacherous, master deceiving, ancestor destroying, disloyal, and unrighteous petty villain like you has no right to speak to me."
"What?"
"Why is this guy insulting Vice Peak Master Lone?" The disciples and envoys of Sunblaze Peak looked at each other, faces revealing suspicion.
The one deceiving her master, destroying ancestors, and committing insubordination... wasn’t that Iris?
"Audacious!" Lone’s expression changed abruptly. Afraid the truth would be exposed, he said angrily.
"You are but a mere outsider, yet you dare to spout nonsense on the territory of my Sunblaze Peak!"
"Oh?" Alex raised an eyebrow. Playing with the Purple Cloud Demon Sword in his hand.
"Could it be you are not afraid of me?"
However, the next second, the majestic baleful aura and sword intent on the Purple Cloud Demon Sword suddenly vanished completely.
Alex frowned. A look of suspicion crossing his face. He looked up and focused his gaze.
Two protectors had each taken a long bronze lance covered in Sacred engravings from their robes and pierced them deeply into the ground.
Alex narrowed his eyes, carefully sensed it.
Then came to a sudden realization. An immensely interested smile curling on his lips.
So these people had set up a formation in advance, centered around the dungeon, and those two long lances were the keys to activating it.
This formation had absolutely no effect on him personally. Yet it completely suppressed the Purple Cloud Demon Sword. Rendering it unable to exert the slightest bit of power.
"Brother, this formation was prepared specifically for you." Lone stood with his arms crossed. Sneering coldly.
"The Heaven and Earth Sword Sealing Grand Formation. While within this formation, even an Emperor-tier divine sword cannot unleash the slightest bit of power."
"Without that Purple Cloud Demon Sword, I’d like to see how you plan to slaughter my entire Sunblaze Peak single-handedly."
"Going through so much trouble to lay down such a formation. You guys truly put in a lot of effort." Alex said with deep interest.
"However, from top to bottom, every single person in your Divine Blade Sect is a sword cultivator."
"By setting up this kind of formation, aren’t you inflicting damage to me while dealing twenty double damage to yourselves?"
"Heh, no need for you to worry about that!" Lone raised his index and middle fingers.
"Life-Plundering Fire Lotus, move!"
Over a dozen crimson-flame fire lotuses appeared out of thin air. Detaching from his palm. Blasting straight toward Alex.
The move was naturally flashy. But as for the power... As a fellow Fire-element cultivator, whether in cultivation base or mastery over fire arts, this Lone was leagues behind Lily.
"Rakshasa Dragon Inhales Water!" Alex slowly raised his hand.
The dry air in the surroundings instantly became intensely humid.
The next second, a sphere of water appeared in his palm. The scorching temperature abruptly plummeted into a freezing chill.
"Rakshasa Dragon Emerges from the Sea, break!"
The water sphere instantly ruptured. A nine-clawed golden dragon emerged from the azure ripples.
It first opened its maw and inhaled, effortlessly swallowing the fire lotuses that were as weak as the glow of fireflies, before roaring as it surged forward.
This move was one of the strongest water techniques within the Rakshasa Water and Fire technique. Even a Supreme Realm mighty figure would find it difficult to parry. Let alone Lone, who had only recently entered the Mahayana Realm.
Boom!
A resounding, heaven-shaking explosion. Thick smoke permeated the surroundings. Half the walls of Sunblaze Peak’s main hall were reduced to rubble by this single strike.
When the smoke cleared, Lone collapsed to his knees with a heavy thud.
The meridians and internal organs within his body had been completely shattered in an instant. His entire cultivation had melted away like ice. He was now virtually no different from a crippled mortal.
"Such ruthless methods..." The crowd gasped sharply, thoroughly shocked by this domineering move.
Even as Alex walked toward Lone, they only dared to watch helplessly from the sidelines. Lacking the courage to step forward and stop him.
"What a wonderful Heaven and Earth Sword Sealing Grand Formation." Alex scoffed.
"Without a sword, I still have plenty of other moves to use."
"But without your swords, you are just a pack of dogs who have lost their fangs and claws."
"To be able to do something this stupid... I genuinely don’t want to absorb your blood essence and souls, lest it negatively impact my IQ."
Raging flames ignited at Alex’s fingertips. Preparing to unleash a bloodthirsty massacre.
"Stop!"
Vincent, hiding in the shadows, could finally sit still no longer. Accompanied by a burst of sky-filling yellow sand, he revealed himself.
"To actually dare to commit murder right under my nose!" Vincent roared angrily.
"Devil, prepare to die!"
"Just you?" Alex had long sensed this old geezer hiding in the dark observing the battle. He wasn’t surprised in the slightest.
However, when he focused his gaze, a look of sheer excitement instantly revealed itself in his eyes.
Vincent’s body was flashing with the most dazzling red light he had seen yet. Compared to Lone, the spiritual energy he could provide was more than twice as abundant.
Unfortunately, these stupid birds set up this Heaven and Earth Sword Sealing Grand Formation. The Soul-Devouring Swords can’t be used.
He would have to leave Vincent alive for now. Wait until the formation was broken, then kill him with the Purple Cloud Demon Sword.
Otherwise, letting such a fat, juicy EXP pack gifted to him for free go to waste would truly be a massive letdown to the Heavens.
"Heh, scared by me?" Seeing Alex standing in place without moving an inch, Vincent assumed this guy was intimidated by his sudden appearance. He crossed his arms and sneered coldly, face full of smug satisfaction.
But very quickly, he realized something was wrong.
This guy... why does it look like he’s drooling?! Looking at Alex’s expression, it was as if he was looking at a beautiful woman stripped completely bare... No, more accurately, like a plate of exquisite delicacies delivered right to his mouth.
