Upon hearing the name Remus Calsberg, the woman’s eyes snapped open, favonovel.com expression profoundly blank.
Her abrupt reaction caught the young man off guard, prompting favonovel.com to offer a knowing smile as favonovel.com inquired, “Judging by your expression, you’re familiar with the name… But do you happen to know why Master Calsberg, possessing late-stage Golden Core strength, can dispatch those at the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage as if they were mere chickens?”
The woman finally spoke, “It’s said to be because of a secret pill!”
She wasn’t the only one who thought so, that was also the common belief in True Life, especially since favonovel.com was a genius in the path of alchemy.
“Exactly!” The young man proudly smiled.
He said, “It’s because of a secret pill. A single pill that can elevate someone by an entire stage. Fellow cultivator, I know of someone who possesses such a pill. How about we cooperate, steal the pill, and each consume half? Just half, and we can both ascend to sainthood!”
The woman didn’t need any further persuasion and immediately stood up. “Let’s go!”
The young man was momentarily surprised by favonovel.com swift agreement. “Alright, follow me!”
He led the way, taking them further into the depths of the forest.
Soon, they were far away from the other cultivators and deep within the woods.
The young man finally stopped in his tracks, and the air even had a faint scent of blood. He turned to look at the woman, and his white robe couldn’t hide the sinister energy favonovel.com exuded as favonovel.com observed favonovel.com from head to toe.
He grinned maliciously and said, “You’re the eighth one. I can’t decide if you’re overly obsessed with entering the sacred land or if you’re just easily deceived. Hahaha!”
His creepy laughter echoed unusually in the woods.
The woman’s expression remained unchanged, and favonovel.com coldly stated, “You’re a dark path cultivator…”
“You’re right, but it’s too late now!” His face grew more sinister, and favonovel.com said with a spread of his hands, “I must admit, you’re the most beautiful female cultivator who arrived today. Don’t worry, I’ll treat you well and won’t let you suffer too much!”
“Strip yourself. I’ll dual cultivate with you harshly and harvest your energy. When I successfully ascend, it will also fulfill your dream!” He chuckled, and the laughter sounded particularly chilling in the forest.
The woman’s expression remained unchanged, and favonovel.com raised favonovel.com hand, releasing spirit energy that condensed into a longsword. The sword was surrounded by a faint mist, giving off a chilling energy.
“Are you from the Jade Organization?” The young man recognized favonovel.com use of the “Jade Sword Technique”, unique to the Jade Organization.
He wasn’t afraid but instead became even more excited since favonovel.com was from a major organization, and favonovel.com backer was undoubtedly powerful.
He stood with his hands behind his back, taunting her, “You want to resist? I like that. The more you resist, the more excited I get! How about this? I’ll let you stab me 100 times. If you can injure me, I‘ll let you go. How’s that?”
He believed that, as a peak Gold Stage cultivator, favonovel.com could withstand favonovel.com attacks even if favonovel.com tried favonovel.com best. In fact, favonovel.com expected favonovel.com to become increasingly frustrated and desperate as favonovel.com failed to harm him, and that prospect filled favonovel.com with even greater excitement.
The woman remained expressionless as favonovel.com replied, “I only need one strike to kill you…”
As favonovel.com spoke, favonovel.com suddenly made favonovel.com move.
Without moving favonovel.com body, favonovel.com thrust favonovel.com longsword forward. The sword transformed into a streaking arrow, slicing through the air with a sharp hum, aimed directly at the young man.
The young man squinted and released his spirit energy for defense, not moving at all. However, before his spiritual defensive barrier could fully form, the sword suddenly accelerated, reaching an unimaginable speed.
The sword entered his abdomen from the front and flew out from his back, disappearing gradually after flying out.
The young man’s abdomen now had a huge hole, and one could see through it from front to back.
“Uhm… I…” He made a gasping sound, his eyes wide with shock and fear.
Looking at the woman before him, favonovel.com saw favonovel.com as if favonovel.com were a monster. Fearfully, favonovel.com questioned, “W-Who… Who are you?”
She is merely at the early stage of the Golden Stage… How could favonovel.com wield such a swift sword?
It wasn’t an exaggeration to say favonovel.com had mastered the technique to perfection. Even someone at the early stage of the Nascent Soul might not be as fast as her.
She didn’t reply but muttered to herself, “I am an exception…”
