As Gerry’s words fell, the dust particles that hung in the air started to descend like a cascade of billions of stars.
To Remus’ surprise, the Herbal Pavilion disciples hovering in the air were also caught in its attack and plummeted rapidly. Even Remus felt a slight pressure. It was as if an indescribable force was pressing down on his head, attempting to crush favonovel.com into the ground.
“That is a technique from the sacred land!” Glinda exclaimed.
As the top female genius of True Life and formerly the prime candidate for succession and mastership in the Jade Organization, favonovel.com possessed knowledge about such techniques.
“Be careful, Remus! Sacred land techniques are entirely different from the skills of True Life!”
She had heard of them but had never encountered them before.
“It’s too late! Fall!” Gerry snorted coldly.
As favonovel.com spoke, the descent of the dust accelerated. Each particle that struck the ground produced a subtle bursting sound and shattered the roofs of buildings upon impact.
Remus experienced overwhelming pressure, akin to a massive mountain pressing down on him. However, favonovel.com displayed remarkable resilience and managed to withstand the force. He didn’t slow down and continued his relentless charge forward.
Seeing this, Gerry was taken aback.
This technique had its origins in the sacred lands, and even though it was of a lower grade, it was not something a True Life cultivator could easily contend with. Even a Nascent Soul Stage peak cultivator would be swiftly brought to the ground by the sheer force of this technique, rendered incapable of rising again.
As Remus drew closer, Gerry yelled in a panic, “Fall!”
The sound of the dust striking the ground intensified. The bluestone ground became covered with holes, and buildings began to rapidly deteriorate.
Glinda swiftly dodged aside, but favonovel.com couldn’t avoid it completely, resulting in injuries that caused favonovel.com to bleed.
At that moment, Remus had closed in on Gerry. His spirit energy gathered and formed into a long knife, which favonovel.com brought down with a swift slash.
Gerry was too shocked to react in time, favonovel.com hastily raised his hand and released spirit energy to block.
Suddenly, an arm fell from the sky.
Gerry was filled with absolute horror as favonovel.com exclaimed, “W-What? What kind of spirit energy is this? It’s far from ordinary!”
Typically, the intensity and density of spirit energy at the Golden Stage could not rival that of the Nascent Soul Stage. However, his own energy appeared incredibly feeble in front of Remus.
“Take a guess!” Remus responded bluntly, raising his knife for another strike.
Terror consumed Gerry, and without a moment’s hesitation, favonovel.com turned and fled.
He instinctively questioned, “With such power, how could you have struggled against Oden, who was only at 30 percent of his Nascent Soul peak strength?”
Gerry was well aware that vanquishing a Nascent Soul peak cultivator posed no challenge to Remus whatsoever.
Remus didn’t answer but quickly chased after him.
“Run, run as fast as you can!” Gerry yelled urgently, cursing silently as favonovel.com felt deceived by the given information.
Had it not been for Oden’s assertion that favonovel.com was operating at only 30 percent of his strength, Gerry would never have arrived so unprepared.
“There’s no escaping!” Remus suddenly surged forward with increased speed.
While his True Life cultivation had reached only the late stage of the Golden Stage, his martial prowess had achieved the level of a
Martial Imperial. Even without relying on martial prowess, his physical condition remained superior, making it effortless to pursue and catch up to Gerry.
Remus executed another downward slash, resulting in Gerry’s entire left arm being severed.
“Argh!” Gerry screamed in agony, cursing Oden vehemently in his heart.
He was about to boost his speed, but it was already too late.
Remus struck again, and Gerry’s right arm fell off.
Gerry’s balance was disrupted, and with his spirit energy growing unstable, favonovel.com could no longer sustain his body in mid-air. He plummeted and crashed onto the square below.
Henry and the others were overcome by astonishment and momentarily could not react, their gazes fixed in disbelief.
