Chapter 525: Chapter 525: Three Dark Energy Graves!_1

Capital City Martial Arts Association was clearly serious about this.

Three Military Marquis would be enough to wipe out any sect in the world!

Even the Great Saint Sect, which was said to be the number one sect in the north, only had one Military Marquis!

At this time, Ethan Smith did not know that the Capital City Martial Arts Association had secretly targeted him.

But he knew in his heart that if he couldn’t step into the Military Marquis Realm, this journey might be a one-way trip.

It took Ethan Smith a full four days to completely absorb all the dark energy from the first grave.

He sat up from the ground, gently swaying his arms, and exhaled a turbid breath.

“At this rate, three graves like this one should be enough to support me in stepping into the Martial Marquis Realm,” Ethan Smith thought to himself.

The Martial Marquis Realm was a watershed. Once stepped into, a golden core would be formed, and one’s strength would experience an unprecedented surge!

In this world today, a Martial Marquis could almost walk unhindered!

Even top aristocratic families like the Taylor family and Blair family could not forcibly command a Martial Marquis to work for them!

“If I can successfully step into the Martial Marquis Realm, I will definitely teach them a lesson when I go to Capital City this time!” Ethan Smith said coldly.

As long as he could step into the Martial Marquis Realm, not only could Ethan Smith take Emily Taylor with him, he could also seize the opportunity to prove his power!

Successfully taking Emily Taylor away was only the first step.

Ethan Smith had promised Emily that he would let her stand at the pinnacle of Capital City!

Either they would reclaim the Taylor family, or they would create an even bigger aristocratic family! A truly top-level sect that surpasses the Taylor family!

“Let’s go.” Ethan Smith walked over to the man with the mustache.

The man with the mustache agreed and led Ethan Smith to the second grave.

The second grave was located at a certain border in the north.

Like the previous grave, this place was virtually uninhabited, with a cold atmosphere not suitable for living.

Looking around, everything was covered in ice.

The cold wind was like a sharp blade, causing unbearable pain.

Pointing at an ice mountain in the distance, the mustache man said, “This is the place.”

Ethan Smith didn’t say much, he sat cross-legged, and began absorbing the dark energy from the second grave.

It took Ethan Smith another six days to absorb the energy from the second grave.

By the time he finished, the date had already come to August 27th.

There were only thirteen days left until September 9th!

Intense pressure made Ethan Smith feel anxious.

“Take me to the third grave right away,” Ethan Smith said, sounding a little impatient.

The mustache man did not waste any more words and quickly led Ethan Smith to the third grave.

By now, Ethan Smith’s body was filled with a lot of dark energy, which would become the foundation for his attempt to break through to the Martial Marquis Realm.

According to Ethan Smith’s calculations, after swallowing the energy from the third grave, he could try to retreat and break through to the Martial Marquis Realm.

This was the fastest method.

The two arrived at the third grave.

However, the scene here made the two of them frown.

They saw that the third grave was surrounded by high walls, and skyscrapers had been built around it.

Looking up, they could see the two big characters on top of the building: Cold.

“Is someone running a company here?” Looking at the skyscraper, Ethan Smith couldn’t help but frown.

Not only that, but numerous luxury cars were parked beneath the building.

“It’s strange, why would anyone set up a company in a place like this?” The man with the mustache rubbed his chin and muttered quietly.

Ethan Smith also found it odd that anyone would choose to establish a company in such a place where people are scarce and long-term exposure can even cause disease and death.

“Can you find a fourth grave?” Ethan Smith asked the man with the mustache.

The mustache man rolled his eyes and said, “Do you think these graves are cabbages on the side of the street?”

Ethan Smith looked at the building and couldn’t help but frown>.

After contemplating for a while, he finally decided to walk in.

Upon entering the company, Ethan Smith saw that everyone inside was extremely emaciated.

“This is the consequence of absorbing dark energy.” Ethan Smith looked around and whispered to himself.People who cultivate dark energy usually become thin and emaciated, barely resembling a human.

Ethan Smith did not fall into this state because he could absorb the dark energy while maintaining a balance with positive energy.

Subsequently, Ethan Smith released his divine sense, enveloping the entire building.

Soon, Ethan Smith discovered that there were a total of eight Grandmasters in this building, and one half-step Martial Marquis!

“It seems that this is not a mere company.” Ethan Smith said solemnly.

The man with the mustache agreed, “Yes, if I’m not mistaken, this should be a sect.”

After all, in modern society, many sects face the world in the form of tall buildings.

Even the Great Saint Sect is like this.

“It is said that most people who cultivate dark energy are treacherous and cunning.” Ethan Smith said coldly.

The man with the mustache glanced at Ethan Smith and scoffed, “Treacherous and cunning people? Don’t you cultivate dark energy yourself?”

Ethan Smith frowned, “I am different.”

“What’s so different about you? It’s just a matter of taking different stands,” the man with the mustache said.

“You say they are treacherous and cunning, but aren’t those so-called righteous people of the Great Saint Sect no better?”

Ethan Smith was suddenly speechless, with nothing to say for the moment.

“Let’s go.” The man with the mustache made sense, so Ethan Smith did not say anything more.

Ethan Smith followed his divine sense towards the rooftop.

Along the way, Ethan Smith could clearly feel the dark energy growing stronger.

It wasn’t until he reached the top floor of a certain office that the dark energy had reached its peak.

Ethan Smith pushed the door, only to find that it was locked, and a Forbidden Power was set on it.

But such a technique was not worth mentioning in front of Ethan Smith.

He simply activated spiritual power in his hands and violently broke the Forbidden Power.

The door slowly opened.

Upon entering, five people seated inside: one half-step Martial Marquis and four at the Peak Form of Grandmaster!

Each of them was skeletal, unkempt, with deeply sunken eyes, looking rather horrifying.

At this moment, they were gathered around a dark square object.

All the dark energy came from this black square object!

“Who are you!” Upon seeing Ethan Smith, the half-step Martial Marquis stood up first!

Ethan Smith explained, “Everyone, don’t misunderstand, I just came to discuss something with you.”

“Hmph, we hid here, and you still won’t give up, huh? Well, I’d like to see how capable you are!” The half-step Martial Marquis shouted and immediately lunged towards Ethan Smith with an outstretched hand!

Ethan Smith had no choice but to dodge while explaining.

Unfortunately, the half-step Martial Marquis couldn’t listen, and his moves became more fierce!

Ethan Smith’s eyebrows furrowed, knowing that this could take a lot of time.

So, with his palm wrapped in spiritual power, Ethan Smith struck out with a palm.

“Boom!”

The half-step Martial Marquis was immediately sent retreating and spitting out a mouthful of blood!

The half-step Martial Marquis wiped the blood from his mouth and got up from the ground.

He gritted his teeth and said coldly, “As expected from someone from the Capital City Martial Arts Association, your strength is remarkable!”

Hearing this, Ethan Smith froze.

“Capital City Martial Arts Association? I’m not from the Capital City Martial Arts Association.” Ethan Smith said awkwardly.

“If you’re not from the Capital City Martial Arts Association, you’re their lapdog!” The half-step Martial Marquis shouted.

Ethan Smith couldn’t help but frown. He was silent for a moment and then said, “A lapdog of the Capital City Martial Arts Association? They are trying their best to kill me; how could I become their lapdog?”

Before the half-step Martial Marquis could speak, the doorway was filled with a fierce aura once again!

Subsequently, four or five people entered from the door.

These people wore white robes with the emblem of the Capital City Martial Arts Association on them.

Not only that, each of them also held a Martial Marquis Weapon!

“You’re good at hiding, huh? Hiding in a place like this?” With the men in white robes entering the room, they sneered.
