As the voice rang out. From a distance, the sounds of footsteps could be heard.
Soon, a large number of cultivators in dark robes and dark masks appeared.
At a glance, the area appeared to be densely packed with approximately three thousand people.
These people appeared quickly and surrounded James and the others.
From the sky, an elder descended. He stood firm on the ground.
The elder looked to be in his seventies. His face was wrinkly, and his eyes were sunken. His appearance was unsettling. He was dressed in a red robe and holding a red sword.
“Saturio Hadecus?”
When Laelia saw this elder, her face turned pale. The remaining dozen guards were all so terrified they were starting to shiver.
James could not help but turn to face Laelia and said, “Saturio Hadecus? Who is he?”
Laelia’s face was filled with fear. Her teeth were slightly chattering as she said, “The Dark Keep …the Dark Keep’s Deputy Master. His ability is only second to the Master’s. He is one of the top cultivators in the Land of Taval. Rumor has it that his strength is at the peak of Herculean Sixth Layer, just a step away from the Immortal Ascension rank.”
“I didn’t think such a young girl as you would know about me.” The elder in the red robe stroked his beard gently. With a relaxed smile on his aged face, he said softly, “Princess Laelia,
I don’t want to trouble you either. Give me the treasure, and I’ll spare your life.”
Saturio’s voice rang out. Every word he spoke pierced Laelia’s chest like a sharp blade. Her whole body was trembling in fear.
A cultivator at the peak of the Herculean Sixth Layer could easily kill her with a flick of a finger. She could not help but tug at James’ sleeves.
James gently took her hand and comforted her, “It’s alright. I’m here.
After hearing these words from James, the anxiety in Laelia’s heart slightly subsided.
James looked at Saturio and said in a soft voice, “I don’t want to kill anyone. If you know what’s best for you, leave now. Otherwise, don’t hold it against me for not being courteous.”
“Heh!” Saturio laughed. His laughter was icy and low. As he laughed, his face darkened. Impudent brat. Since you want to play the hero, I’ll send you on to your fate today.”
He raised his hand and gave an order, “Attack.”
Schwing! Schwing! Schwing!
The surrounding cultivators in black robes pulled out their swords all at once.
Their intangible Sword Energy was swaying. These people were the true elites of the Dark Keep. They were all very powerful, with each of them having reached the Seventh or Eighth Inner Gate.
As thousands of people drew their swords all at once, a dozen guards trembled in fear. Even
Laelia’s expression turned grave.
Although James scared off some Dark Keep members yesterday, the person who showed up today was the Deputy Master of the Dark Keep. He was a cultivator who had almost reached the Immortal Ascension rank. She was worried that James would be no match for him.
James gave a small wave and said, “No need to worry.”
James focused his mind, and the Primordial Dragon Blade that had been placed in the Celestial Abode immediately materialized in his hand. Holding the Primordial Dragon Blade, James looked around at the thousands of Dark Keep guards waiting to strike. His lips curled into a faint smile.
When it came to his foes, James never showed mercy.
“Kill him!” Saturio’s cold shout resounded.
Following his command, thousands of cultivators that surrounded him held onto their weapons and charged toward James at the same time.
At this moment, James moved his body, and a brilliant Sword Light manifested from the Primordial Dragon Blade in his hands. The Sword Light swept the vicinity with frightening power.
Boom!
In the distance, there was a sudden explosion.
The Sword Energy struck many of the Dark Keep’s guards. They all instantly died violent deaths.
Once James attacked, he was absolutely terrifying. He was only at the Herculean rank, but his physical strength was very powerful. It had already reached the Herculean Fifth Layer.
Furthermore, he had reached the extreme at every rank. His rank was at the Herculean First Layer, but his True Energy was far superior to the Herculean First Layer.
His speed was pushed to the limit.
Cultivators from the Dark Keep that moved closer to him were instantly killed.
In a matter of seconds, hundreds of people were killed.
As Saturio witnessed James’ impressive strength, his face darkened. He promptly drew his sword and began to strike voluntarily.
Rumor had it that his strength was at Herculean Sixth Layer, but he had actually entered the Immortal Ascension rank.
The Immortal Ascension rank’s cultivator struck with a dreadful aura. An incorporeal Sword Energy rippled through the area, shaking it up. The terrifying pressure engulfed Laelia and the others, and they were powerless to resist it. Agony was apparent on their faces.
“Die!” Saturio shouted coldly.
