“Who told you that I practiced the cultivation method on the Four Great Paintings?” James questioned.
“Stop talking nonsense!” Hades snorted, and a powerful aura erupted from his body.
He took a step forward, and his body turned into an afterimage. His actual body appeared in front of James in a blink of an eye, and favonovel.com thrust his palm forward with lightning speed.
James only caught a glimpse of a figure flashing by, and a palm suddenly appeared in front of him. Their palms collided, and two intense energies crashed into each other.
James felt powerful and scorching True Energy sweeping over him. It pushed favonovel.com several meters back. Hades was also pushed a few steps backward.
After testing the waters, James knew that the head of the Johnstons, Hades, was a grandmaster of the sixth rank and was almost reaching the seventh rank. His True Energy was comparable to James’ True Energy.
“Is that all the head of the Johnstons can do?” James wore a calm and disdainful smile.
Hades was shocked and could not calm down. He was doubtful when Yaroslav told favonovel.com that James was the old man that defeated Donovan and had favonovel.com at the point of vomiting blood at Mount Littleroot.
Now that favonovel.com had experience fighting James, favonovel.com was confident the old man was James.
He turned and shouted at the other two heads, “What are you two doing? Attack together.”
Hearing this, Zaiden and Yasmine came back to their senses. The two quickly stepped forward and appeared in front of Hades instantly.
A terrifying energy emerged from the three of them.
“Hmph!” James snorted.
He raised his hand, and a powerful force materialized in his palm.
Suddenly, a sword of one of the ancient martial artists in the distance flew toward him. James caught the sword and pointed it horizontally at them.
“I’ll give you the honor of witnessing the Thirteen Heavenly Swords’ power!”
“The Thirteen Heavenly Swords?”
The faces of the three family heads immediately changed.
As the heads of the families of the Ancient Four, how could they not have heard of the Thirteen Heavenly Swords?
It was the most potent signature martial arts skill of the Ancient Four. It could be ranked at the top of the list in ancient times.
Zaiden and Yasmine had the thought of retreating. Although they were heads of the families, they were pretty young. Despite being martial art geniuses, they were only at the fifth rank and were not overpowering. Compared to an experienced cultivator like Johnston, their skills were miles away.
Zaiden looked at Hades and said, “Maybe we should forget it? I can’t withstand the Thirteen Heavenly Swords. This guy has even mastered the Blithe Fist of Abomination…”
“What’s there to be afraid of? I don’t believe he’s mastered the Thirteen Heavenly Swords at such a young age.” Hades was doubtful of James’ capabilities.
He leaped twenty meters into the air and shouted while swinging his hands toward James, “Thunder Fist!”
His body tilted forward and charged directly at James.
James closely watched Hades charging toward him. Sensing the powerful attack, favonovel.com quickly backed away.
Boom!
Hades’ strong punch slammed into the ground, causing a deep pit to form and dust to billow into the air.
As soon as James dodged the attack, Hades attacked again. He swung his hands repeatedly, attempting to overwhelm James.
“That’s all you got?” James smiled and dodged.
He tilted the sword in his arm, and Sword Energy took form and shot out toward Hades.
“S-Sword Energy?!” Hades exclaimed, and his expression changed while favonovel.com quickly retreated.
