Oscar's puppets charged toward Adrian. The former thought his puppets should at least heavily injure Adrian, even if the puppets were not at their best.Four out of the six puppets attacked Adrian while the other two focused on Tyron. Evidently, Oscar prioritized Adrian and saw Tyron as less of a threat.Tyron noticed Oscar’s disdain for him and shouted, “You bastard! How dare you underestimate me! I’ll slice your puppets to shreds!”Oscar taunted, “You’re an ignorant fool for seeking respect when you’re weak. How ridiculous.”He thought Tyron was nowhere near as strong as Adrian and that he deserved nothing but ridicule. However, Oscar did not know that Tyron had killed an Astral. Otherwise, the former would be horrified and not underestimate Tyron.Meanwhile, Adrian endured attacks from the four puppets. Despite their onslaught, Adrian held his ground and punched a puppet, shattering it. Unable to comprehend the situation, Oscar was stunned.“That’s impossible! How is your stre

Oscar was fully intent on escaping as he transformed into a blood-red streak of light and tore through the air at breakneck speed. Then, one of his puppets trembled violently.“Watch out!” Adrian exclaimed. He grabbed Tyron and fled from the scene.Suddenly, the puppet exploded. The duo never expected Oscar to sacrifice his beloved puppet to give him a chance to flee. The explosion even created a massive crater.At that moment, Adrian and Tyron appeared in the distance. Tyron was astonished yet relieved. If Adrian were just a moment slower, they would have gotten caught in the devastating blast.He turned to Adrian and said, “Thanks for that. I would’ve died if it weren’t for you.”Adrian’s gaze turned cold as he said, “That bastard. I’ll kill him the next time I see him.”Although Oscar had several escape methods up his sleeves, he had suffered severe injuries. Hence, Adrian would have an easier time killing him.Tyron smiled, fully understanding Adrian’s intentions. Among thos

At that moment, Adrian and Tyron's gazes were sharp and cold as they watched terrifying forces erupting in the distant void. The sight was overwhelming.Boom! Roar!A furious roar echoed through the sky, followed by a beam of purple light that struck a towering ancient tree nearby with immense force."What's going on? Have we been discovered?" Tyron asked, startled and immediately on high alert.Adrian, however, remained calm, though slightly surprised. "Don't worry. It's just the aftermath of a distant battle reaching us by accident. Nothing to be overly concerned about," he replied coolly, his gaze still sharp.Tyron was surprised by Adrian's composure, aware of how dangerous the situation really was for them. The only thing they knew for sure was that the distant beasts were far beyond their ability to handle. Charging in recklessly would be foolish.The two supreme ancient beasts they saw appeared to be at the peak of the Astral Stage. If they unleashed their full power, it w

Crash!A terrifying force suddenly descended from the sky, creating an overwhelmingly fearsome sight that left Tyron trembling with dread. He could hardly comprehend what was happening. The devastating power rained down with no regard for anything as if it aimed to slam into the ground and shatter it completely.From a distance, Tyron watched in horror, his eyes wide with fear. He sensed an ominous danger and feared that Adrian must be in grave peril. He wanted to rush forward to help Adrian but remembered the latter’s earlier instructions to stay put. If he recklessly charged in, unforeseen dangers could arise, and Adrian might not be able to protect him. With that thought, Tyron hesitated.A battle between Astrals was lethal for someone like him, still in the Nascent Stage. Any carelessness could obliterate his very soul. Adrian must have confidence in his abilities to venture so close; after all, he possessed the strength of an Astral. Tyron realized that rushing forward would be

The Ivy Electro Serpent was struck violently by the attack, its massive body shaking from the impact. At that moment, it coiled tightly around the Violet Rain Bird, determined not to let it take to the air.Overwhelmed with disgust, the Violet Rain Bird struggled to fight back, unleashing a torrent of terrifying purple energy that bombarded the Ivy Electro Serpent. The sound of its enraged roars echoed, shaking the heavens and the earth. Once again, waves of attacks slammed into the Ivy Electro Serpent, which retaliated fiercely.The anguished cries of the Violet Rain Bird resonated throughout the area as if the two ancient beasts were locked in a life-and-death struggle. Watching from a distance, Adrian felt his blood boiling. He knew one of these beasts would surely be injured. He was simply waiting for the right moment to seize the opportunity. Otherwise, he would have no chance to rush in, and this thought filled him with excitement.Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...Violent winds stir
