Ch. 3991..4000
Chapter 3991 Spirit Beast Army
Blithe Lord was wearing an animal-skin robe as he stood on the back of a gigantic tiger-like spirit beast, which was positioned at the forefront of his army.
The spirit beast was the size of a fully matured elephant. Its huge tiger head was very intimidating, especially because it had an unusually sharp horn on its forehead.
“Listen to me, you robber! If you hand over your ultimate weapons, I shall spare you!” Blithe Lord made his voice sound as loud as thunder.
The spirit beasts roared at the same time as though they were hyping him up.
Ever since he learned of the premium ultimate weapons in the robber’s possession, he had traveled to Astre Lune Sect with his spirit beast army without stopping even once.
He swore to himself that he would get his hands on those weapons to raise his reputation in Willowbank and make nearby territories tremble before him.
Following behind his spirit beast army were vicious-looking cultivators. Each of them dressed differently and exuded a terrifying aura.
“I’ll give you fifteen minutes to consider your next move! If you still haven’t surrendered by then, I shall raze Astre Lune Sect to the ground!” Blithe Lord yelled again, which was accompanied by the howls of his spirit beasts and clamors of his other subordinates.
Levi, Sylvan, and the others arrived at the walls of the headquarters of Astre Lune Sect.
Aside from Levi, everyone else was either grimacing or glowering.
Blithe Lord was already at their doorsteps, yet the Prime Association reinforcements still hadn’t arrived.
“According to the rumors, Blithe Lord’s cultivation level has nearly reached perfection. He also has an army of mighty spirit beasts. It’s hard to gauge their strength.”
“He also took in a bunch of malevolent, vicious criminals. Most of them are bloodthirsty demons who committed heaps of evil acts in Kenfort.”
“Look at those creatures! I think more than half of them are high-level spirit beasts. Just those beasts alone are probably as powerful as the core combat force of a large sect.”
“Blithe Lord is personally directing his army, and he’s riding on the legendary one-horned draconic tiger beast. I heard it’s part of an ancient spirit beast bloodline and it’s as strong as a Peak class fighter.”
The crowd was discussing their enemy with each other. Upon listening to those words, many of them revealed a ghastly expression.
They couldn’t help but feel fearful as they watched the spirit beasts clattering their hooves and looking bloodthirsty.
The differently dressed demons’ faces contorted as well as they stared at the Astre Lune Sect members mockingly.
Quirina, who was the leader of the female members, was getting especially pale.
They had heard of the cruelty Blithe Lord’s subordinates were capable of before. Their male enemies would be killed, and the females would be sentenced to a fate worse than death.
With a grim tone, Sylvan said, “Blithe Lord’s strength is unfathomable, Mr. Garrison. And those spirit beasts are very difficult to deal with. We’ll use the Astre Lune Sect defensive formations to defend against them first.”
Levi responded with a silent smile as he faced the spirit beasts. There was a tinge of amusement in his relaxed countenance.
“Come out and accept your death, you robber! Everyone from Astre Lune Sect, listen up! Surrender now, and we may spare you. However, if you refuse, we’ll kill all the men and turn all the women into sex slaves!” Blithe Lord’s subordinate hollered arrogantly.
A sneer appeared on Blithe Lord’s face when he didn’t receive any response from Astre Lune Sect after waiting for a long while.
He pulled out the bone flute from his waist and started playing it.
As he played a melodious tune, the previously calm spirit beasts instantly became aggressive.
They struck the ground with even greater force and growled at an even louder volume. Their eyes had also reddened.
“Kill them!”
On Blithe Lord’s order, the spirit beasts sprinted toward the Astre Lune Sect walls like crazy.
Chapter 3992 Thunder Qilin Is Invincible
Blithe Lord’s one-horned draconic tiger beast was no exception as it dashed toward the walls. The instant the beast started running, Blithe Lord leaped and landed on the cloudship floating in the air.
More than a hundred spirit beasts charged forward madly, ominous lights in their eyes. They seemed eager to tear their enemies to shreds.
There were also flying spirit beasts, and they were soaring straight toward the crowd standing on the walls as they howled.
“Activate the defensive formations! The spirit beast army is attacking. This is Blithe Lord’s specialty. Under the influence of demonic music, those spirit beasts will become exceptionally bloodthirsty and aggressive. Not only that, but the spirit beasts’ power will also increase temporarily. Everyone, don’t let your guard down,” Sylvan and the fighters from the Prime Association reminded.
The Astre Lune Sect members’ anxiety instantly peaked when they heard that. They had no idea Blithe Lord’s spirit beasts would undergo such changes.
“No need to worry. Thunder can take care of these small fries,” Levi reassured lazily.
The crowd was shocked and confused. Because of their tense nerves, they didn’t give much thought to what “Thunder” was in that context.
The Thunder Qilin growled. It was unhappy that the crowd had forgotten about it—an important spirit beast.
Leisurely, the Thunder Qilin stood up and glanced at Levi as though it was asking Levi how much power it should unleash.
“Kill them all. Show them what a top-tier spirit beast is made of!” Levi encouraged.
The Thunder Qilin howled happily, delighted to gain a chance to show off.
“Go!” As Levi shouted again, it pounced forward and shot itself through the air like an arrow with a roar.
Its voice unleashed a powerful mental attack because it didn’t hold back, which caused almost everyone there to feel dizzy.
In the blink of an eye, the spirit beast army that was charging toward the walls suddenly stopped in their tracks like statues.
The lower-level spirit beasts prostrated themselves on the ground as though they were mortals kneeling before a deity.
The spirit beasts that had the worst experience were the aerial ones. They were about to attack from the sky when the Thunder Qilin’s roar attacked their brains.
The pressure of the mental attack was so immense that they couldn’t muster any thoughts of resistance.
They all dropped to the ground. The lucky ones had a few broken bones, while the unlucky ones fell straight down to hell.
The Thunder Qilin let out another roar, freezing the movements of the spirit beasts that had just returned to their senses.
Without giving its enemies any chance to catch a breath, it unleashed the lightning energy crackling on its skin.
Colorful, violent lightning bolts landed on the motionless spirit beasts.
More than thirty spirit beasts were burned to a crisp by the lightning energy. Then, their remains were blown away by the powerful energy shockwaves.
“Is that a King class spirit beast? Why does that robber have one? This is impossible! A King class spirit beast is about as powerful as ten Peak class fighters, yet it’s the robber’s pet?”
Blithe Lord’s subordinates gasped in shock.
Even Blithe Lord himself was flabbergasted. He thought he was impressive because he was capable of taming many high-level spirit beasts with his beast-taming technique.
However, his accomplishment paled in comparison to the robber’s capabilities.
Chapter 3993 Cardinal Spear
While Blithe Lord and his men were still in shock, the Thunder Qilin started carrying out its massacre. The spirit beast growled ferociously as he leaped up and down, either spitting fire from its mouth, shooting lightning bolts from its back, or firing hailstones from its hoofs.
Blithe Lord’s army of spirit beasts was either turned into charred carcasses, burned to ashes, or frozen into ice statues. It was impossible for the army of spirit beasts to defend themselves against the Thunder Qilin’s attacks, let alone retaliate.
All color had completely drained from Blithe Lord’s face. His subordinates, who were behaving arrogantly just a while ago, gaped in shock.
While Blithe Lord and his men were panicking and falling into the depths of despair, the fighters from Astre Lune Sect and the Prime Association were fired up with excitement.
They were pleasantly surprised, as they had never imagined that the Thunder Qilin possessed such formidable combat prowess. After all, it was usually a prideful and pretentious creature.
Against the Thunder Qilin, the hundred over mighty beasts were completely powerless and were just like lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
What shocked everyone the most was the Thunder Qilin’s triple attack.
“If I’m not mistaken, the lightning bolts released by the Thunder Qilin had nine different colors!”
“Also, the flames that came out of its mouth were comparable to the energy unleashed by the fire-based spiritual ley line. It was so powerful that some of those beasts had instantly vaporized.”
“And those hailstones! It was so far away, but its cold energy made me feel as if I had fallen into an ice cave. No wonder those spirit beasts turned into ice statues in just a split second.”
“Given the Thunder Qilin’s immense powers, I’m afraid that even the combined efforts of top fighters from large sects would not be enough to defeat it.”
“Mr. Garrison is indeed something else. It’s unbelievable that he is able to keep this King class spirit beast under his wing.”
One could only imagine what torture Levi had subjected the Thunder Qilin to in order for it to be as tame as a kitten in front of the man.
“Oh no! It seems that Blithe Lord is going to fight the Thunder Qilin personally,” Sylvan suddenly exclaimed. Everyone looked in the direction where Sylvan was pointing.
With a sword in hand, Blithe Lord had jumped off the cloudship and was floating in mid-air. He was looking at the Thunder Qilin with a terrifying expression while exuding murderous intent.
Having noticed it earlier, Levi grabbed a spear from the selection of various premium ultimate weapons.
The crowd turned to look and saw that the spear had a silver shaft with electric arcs dancing around its pointed head and generating flames that were gradually rising.
Even though Levi had yet to unleash any attack, the spear gave off divine energy that enchanted anyone witnessing it. “As expected of a premium ultimate weapon!”
“I wonder how powerful this spear is.” “I’m sure it won’t be any weaker than Dragon’s Grave or Thunder Slaughterer.” Exclamations could be heard from the members of Astre Lune Sect.
A number of them had previously witnessed the prowess of Thunder Slaughterer, where countless top fighters of Eclipse had been killed by the weapon instantly.
Everyone from the Prime Association was mesmerized by the spear. Although they had seen their fair share of weapons, they had not encountered any premium ultimate weapon that was that impressive.
Sylvan was also in awe. The ultimate weapon that he had previously gotten from Levi paled in comparison to the spear.
“Looks like Levi’s forging technique is far more superior than I’ve imagined,” the man muttered emotionally.
His determination to protect Levi was further strengthened.
“This is the Cardinal Spear!”
It was named after The Cardinal Hall.
After introducing the weapon, Levi aimed it at Blithe Lord before throwing it forward.
Swoosh!
An ear-piercing sound was heard as the spear cut through the air.
Lightning sparks were generated from the electric arcs surrounding the shaft of the spear. It only took a fraction of a second for the spear to reach Blithe Lord.
Meanwhile, right after Blithe Lord started cultivating in preparation for his battle with the Thunder Qilin, he suddenly sensed danger.
Chapter 3994 Blithe Lord Is Dead
The next second, Blithe Lord saw a blinding bolt of light charging toward him. “Do you really think it’s possible to hurt me with a mediocre weapon like that? Dream on! Let me show you how powerful my ultimate weapon is.”
Blithe Lord let out a deafening bellow as he channeled his energy into his sword before hurling it at the bolt of light. Zing!
Dazzling sparks instantly exploded from the sword as its blade transformed into a massive energy storm and tore through the air toward the bolt of light.
Blithe Lord sneered, thinking that there was no way a distant attack could break through the energy storm barrier.
He intended to leverage the shockwave of the energy storm to strike and take down the King class spirit beast after blocking his opponent’s attack.
However, the next instant, the smile on his face stiffened. “How is this possible?”
The bolt of light had easily broken through the barrier created by the energy storm of the blade. At that moment, the air stilled and silence ensued.
At the same time, the atmosphere seemed to have solidified as a gust of frosty wind swirled past. Blithe Lord’s ultimate weapon was frozen and was then struck by the bolt of light and reduced to dust.
“This is bad!” Blithe Lord had an ominous feeling and his pupils contracted. He immediately started cultivating to activate an energy shield to protect himself.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! An energy with a thickness of hundred feet was instantly formed. Almost simultaneously, Levi’s Cardinal Spear hit the outermost layer of the energy shield, shattering it into pieces.
Crack! More importantly, the Cardinal Spear was still traveling at the same speed, unaffected by the obstruction of the energy shield.
“Shit!” Blithe Lord knew that things were not looking good and wanted to dodge to the side. However, it was all too late. In a flash, the Cardinal Spear pierced through his chest.
Even though Blithe Lord was wearing armor made with the finest materials, the spear had still easily penetrated his body.
The strong impact from the hit sent him flying backward at such a fast speed that only an afterimage of him could be seen in the sky.
Swoosh!
Finally, Blithe Lord was nailed against the cloudship that was floating in mid-air.
The cloudship started shaking violently and only came to a halt after being knocked almost a thousand feet backward.
“T-This is impossible!”
Disbelief was written all over Blithe Lord’s face.
Immense lightning energy and cold energy filled the man’s body, charring his internal organs before freezing them.
Spurts of blood shot into the air in the shape of frozen red roses before landing on the ground.
Blithe Lord’s army was shocked beyond belief as they watched him get killed.
“Blithe Lord is dead! How is this possible?”
“What was that flying object? How can it possess such terrifying power?”
“Blithe Lord’s sword is one of the most powerful ultimate weapons around. I can’t believe it was destroyed so easily.”
“What do we do now? Are we going to continue to attack Astre Lune Sect?”
Blithe Lord’s army was at a loss after losing its leader.
No one from either Astre Lune Sect or the Prime Association spoke a word.
Levi stood with his hands behind his back, a serene expression on his face.
However, despite his calm appearance, adrenaline was pumping within him as he had just killed a Kenfort fighter effortlessly.
Overlooking Blithe Lord’s army whose morale had completely shattered and who were trembling in fear after their leader had been killed, Levi felt as if he was the ruler of Kenfort.
Levi was the God of War in the mundane world. However, as time went by, he had become unbeatable.
It was only when he arrived in Kenfort and met the fighters there that he felt excitement flowing through him again.
The feeling of having his competitive spirit ignited was indescribable, especially after he had long forgotten how it felt.
Kenfort fighters, get ready to beg for your lives. I’m coming for you! Levi exclaimed in his heart as a strong fighting intent flashed in his eyes.
Chapter 3995 I Will Teach Them A Lesson
After a short moment of silence, a commotion erupted among the members of Astre Lune Sect and Prime Association. “Lord Garrison is truly astonishing. He killed Blithe Lord in one strike, the Blithe Lord who had destroyed several large sects!”
“A single blow managed to shake the entire Blithe Lord’s army to their core. Look at the helter-skelter; they are probably thinking of ways to escape.” “Does Levi really need our protection? He’s way too strong!”
“There are less than ten fighters who are stronger than Blithe Lord in the entire Prime Association. I can’t believe he took down Blithe Lord with only one shot.”
“It’s no wonder that the headquarters of Prime Association values him so much. From the looks of it, that spear is probably a top-notch premium ultimate weapon too.”
“If I had such a powerful premium ultimate weapon, I would definitely become a powerhouse of Prime Association.” All the chatter from the crowd naturally reached Levi’s ears.
In actuality, the four premium ultimate weapons, Dragon’s Grave, Thunder Slaughterer, Desfort, and Cardinal Spear, were actually imitations of the four divine tools of the Ecclesiastic Order.
It was just that they were forged using top-quality raw materials. Besides, they were forged and refined in the blaze of Earthfire, the draught of Arctic Lake, and the rumble of Heavenly Thunder.
Naturally, the forged premium ultimate weapons were far more powerful than an average one.
Upon wielding, it was found that the performance of the four ultimate weapons surpassed expectations. Dragon’s Grave and Thunder Slaughterer easily slaughtered the seventeen elites of the Cordierite Association.
It only took two arrows for Desfort to incapacitate Eclipse and the Eclipse Academy from thousands of miles away.
Also, the first strike of Cardinal Spear took the life of the elite fighter of the Cordierite Association, Blithe Lord, that day. Even Levi was quite pleased with such a terrifying record.
Levi’s forging technique has significantly exceeded my expectations. Sylvan exclaimed in amazement in his heart.
Levi had hidden the existence of the premium ultimate weapons so well that Sylvan didn’t even know that he had made so many.
Ever since Sylvan came to Astre Lune Sect and saw the four premium ultimate weapons, he had been wondering what kind of superb forging skills was needed for forging them.
The four premium ultimate weapons were not only different in form, but they also had different characteristics. This required a high level of craftsmanship so that all the ideas could be integrated seamlessly.
“Putting aside other factors, those four ultimate weapons are enough to prove the great value of Levi. It’s no surprise that Prime Association would do anything to protect him.”
Sylvan made up his mind and immediately passed the news to Prime Association.
All of the Prime Association’s high-ranking officials were stunned upon receiving the news.
Although Sylvan didn’t know exactly what grade those four ultimate weapons were, he knew that they were definitely ranked top on the list based on their performance.
Moreover, if other sects or associations were to know about the ultimate weapons and wanted to lure Levi over, their offers would undoubtedly be better than what Prime Association had to offer.
That was why Prime Association had to show a firm attitude, especially when the sects of Cordierite Association came at Levi.
After all, people would appreciate those who lent them a helping hand when they were in trouble.
Even if other larger sects found out about this in the future, Levi would still stand up for them as he would owe them a favor.
It was worth it to pay the price for these four top-level magic weapons, not to mention that Levi himself was a master blacksmith who forged the ultimate weapons.
After a brief discussion, the headquarters of Prime Association issued an order to have Levi’s life protected at all costs.
Even the headquarters started to send fighters over as reinforcements. They were clearly doing everything they could to support Levi.
Sylvan was also pleased with the answer as the Lightspring branch didn’t have to worry about fighting alone.
“You guys just need to stand aside and watch. Don’t come to help. I will teach them a lesson.”
Before he finished speaking, Levi leaped down from the tower with Dragon’s Grave and Thunder Slaughterer in his hands.
Chapter 3996 Too Dangerous To Face The Enemies Alone
Levi jumped down from the tall city tower without a sound before his figure disappeared in a flash. “Thunder, get back!”
With a loud shout, Thunder Qilin, who had almost slaughtered the group of spirit beasts, stopped and retreated in the opposite direction.
Levi’s figure flitted across the battlefield and charged straight into Blithe Lord’s troops. “He is coming! Retreat!” “Why should we be afraid of him when there are so many of us?”
“Blithe Lord lost because he had underestimated his opponent. We should all rise up and attack him together to avenge Blithe Lord.”
“Indeed. It should be as easy as pie to kill him with our numbers.” After a short period of panic, Blithe Lord’s army calmed down again.
After all, they were all experienced fighters. Many of them were also loyal subordinates of Blithe Lord. Of course, there were some opportunists who wanted to take the credit for beheading Levi to take the reign of Blithe Lord.
Although everyone was harboring different thoughts, they all had the same goal which was to kill Levi. Everyone held up their weapons, be it swords, guns, halberds, axes, or hooks, and charged directly in Levi’s direction.
Yet, they were met with a raging torrent of sword energy. As Dragon’s Grave and Thunder Slaughterer rattled and danced through the air, the sword energy intensified and formed a net that directly covered Blithe Lord’s army.
Everyone instinctively brandished their weapons to parry the attack. Unfortunately, their ordinary weapons were powerless against the premium ultimate weapons.
Although it wasn’t Levi’s all-out blow, the attack was a catastrophe for Blithe Lord’s army. In an instant, the weapons in their hands turned into ashes. Many of them failed to dodge and were ripped apart by the attack.
Many people were frozen into ice statues or burnt into ashes by the power of the two ultimate weapons. “You’re like King Canute trying to stop the tide!”
Levi’s cold voice rang out, sending shivers down Blithe Lord’s army’s spines. Clang! Clang! Clang!
Many lost their lives whenever the ultimate weapons swished through the air. Levi was like the Grim Reaper, brandishing his scythe to take the lives of Blithe Lord’s army.
From a distance, one could see Levi charge into Blithe Lord’s army, slaughtering his opponents and leaving bloody paths behind him.
Blithe Lord’s army tried their best to put up resistance at first, but soon they realized they were no match for Levi and all fled in defeat.
“It’s too late to flee now.”
Levi obviously didn’t intend to spare his enemies. He summoned Thunder Qilin and chased after them.
Stunned, Sylvan and the others shouted, trying futilely to stop Levi from pursuing his opponents. “Don’t go after them!”
Levi merely turned a deaf ear and continued his pursuit as Blithe Lord’s army fled in disorder.
“It’s too dangerous for him to face the enemy alone. No one knows where those other forces are. Hurry up and go help Mr. Garrison. We don’t want him to suffer any losses,” Sylvan immediately issued an order, and the elites of Prime Association rushed to help.
Quirina and the others wanted to charge forward too but were stopped by Sylvan.
“You guys can just stay here. If there are other forces attacking, I will need you to send the news as soon as possible.”
Quirina and other members of Astre Lune Sect agreed with Sylvan’s arrangement.
Naturally, they also knew that they would not be of much help when facing the allied forces of Cordierite Association.
They might even drag Levi down.
Meanwhile, the fleeing Blithe Lord’s army was hunted down and gradually decreased in numbers until they did not have enough personnel to activate the cloudship.
They originally wanted to use Cardinal Spear against Levi, but the man who got near was instantly frozen into an ice statue by the overwhelming iciness emanated by the weapon.
Seeing that, no one dared to covet Cardinal Spear anymore.
Levi and Thunder Qilin continued their pursuit before seeing another army approaching them from a distance.
Chapter 3997 Arcadia Is Here
The army consisted of fighters from Arcadia. They were instantly perplexed when they noticed Blithe Lord’s soldiers fleeing the area from a distance.
The vice sect leader of Arcadia furrowed his brows slightly. He had not received any information before coming here, so he thought he was the first one to reach Astre Lune Sect.
When Arcadia discovered that the robber possessed a top premium ultimate weapon, the sect coveted it and sought to reach Astre Lune Sect first in order to acquire it.
Arcadia’s obsession with ultimate weapons was far greater than that of the other sects due to their expertise in alchemy and weapon forging. “What’s going on here? Stop some of Blithe Lord’s men and ask them,” the vice sect leader of Arcadia ordered.
The apprentices of Arcadia received his order and attempted to stop Blithe Lord’s subordinates. To their surprise, Blithe Lord’s men refused to be stopped.
They were relentlessly killing anyone who got in their way as if they were being pursued by a far more terrifying monster. “Sir, it seems that someone is heading over here!”
“That guy is carrying a blade and a sword! He’s likely the robber we are looking for from the description!” “Is it really the robber? Lady Luck must be on our side. I’m definitely getting the reward from Cordierite Association.”
“There’s a spirit beast behind him. It looks like a Qilin!” Everyone discussed among themselves.
The vice sect leader of Arcadia was unfazed by this scene and immediately ordered, “Prepare for battle! We’re going to kill the robber!”
“Yes, sir!” Instantly, all the fighters were excited, as they were here to make their mark. Now that the opportunity was upon them, their excitement was through the roof.
The incoming man was Levi. He had no knowledge of Arcadia, but he treated them as enemies because they had come to attack Astre Lune Sect.
I’ll kill all of these enemies! Levi drew his sword, and an immense amount of sword energy was instantly released. The fighters from Arcadia were unfazed. Even if the robber is strong, we outnumber him.
Almost all of them had this same thought since Levi was only known for killing the seventeen fighters in Cordierite Association.
They started fighting against Levi due to their confidence in their numbers.
However, they were unpleasantly surprised the moment their energies collided with Levi’s.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
In the blink of an eye, the fighters’ weapons shattered into pieces. Levi’s sword energy pierced through the Arcadia fighters and killed them instantly.
Many of them died before they could even make a sound.
Thunder Qilin’s attack followed immediately. At that moment, the fighters suffered from a combination of thunder, fire, and frost attacks.
Many of them were either burned to a crisp, frozen into ice statues, or splintered into ashes before they could react.
Arcadia’s vice sect leader was taken aback because he had not expected his sect’s fighters to be unable to make a single move against Levi.
If Levi killed one or two of his men, he would consider it an act of carelessness on the part of his men. Many Arcadia fighters, however, lost their lives on the spot. This meant Levi’s strength far outweighed his imagination.
“Hundred Alchemical Gods Array!” the vice sect leader bellowed.
Ultimately, Arcadia was still one of the larger sects, and these fighters were all elites.
Although Levi caught them off guard, they quickly calmed down and assembled themselves to face the incoming enemy.
“Alchemical Gods? Let’s see how powerful your array is!”
Levi remained unperturbed, charging toward them with a blade and a sword in each hand. He entered Arcadia’s array and began slaughtering the fighters.
Countless Arcadia fighters lost their lives whenever his weapons swished through the air.
Upon seeing this scene, Arcadia’s vice sect leader gasped in shock. He did not expect the robber to have such horrifying strength.
No wonder Blithe Lord’s men were running for their lives… They must have been traumatized by him too. Wait, did I just use the word “too”?
The corners of the vice sect leader’s mouth twitched involuntarily.
Chapter 3998 Everyone Is Astonished
In comparison to Blithe Lord, Arcadia was more persistent. They stubbornly believed they were able to kill Levi with their strength. They continued to attack Levi even after the latter destroyed their Hundred Alchemical Gods Array.
The vice sect leader was also working hard to find the best opportunity to land Levi a coup de grâce as he shifted around the space at extreme speeds.
Nevertheless, Levi was faster. His attacks were so quick and precise that it was impossible to predict his next move. “Die!” Levi launched another attack. The vice sect leader failed to dodge in time and lost his life on the spot.
The fighters were finally panicking after losing their leader. Nonetheless, that didn’t matter, as most of them had already died due to Levi and Thunder Qilin’s attacks.
Moreover, they were having difficulty avoiding the incoming attacks because they were also being heavily attacked by Sylvan and the others who had just arrived.
Sylvan and the others were astounded by the inability of the enemies to stop Levi. “Levi’s strength is horrifying. Does he really need Prime Association’s protection?”
“He can easily defeat Blithe Lord’s subordinates and the fighters of Arcadia with only a beast! These are also two of the most powerful sects ever! One could only imagine how strong he is!”
“He can face Cordierite Association’s fighters by himself too!” “Moreover, the Thunder Qilin is also very strong! A King class spirit beast is no joke! It’s terrifying!”
The fighters of Prime Association were astonished. Sylvan quickly informed the headquarters about this, causing the head of Prime Association to be even more determined to side with Levi.
In just half an hour, all of Arcadia’s fighters were slaughtered by Levi. “This is truly thrilling!” Levi exclaimed with a smile. Everyone was stunned, seeing how Levi did not even break a sweat.
Is he not exhausted after fighting for so long? “Let’s go back. The remaining Cordierite Association’s reinforcements will not be arriving anytime soon!”
Levi decided to return for now. Sylvan and the others followed behind him, leaving the ground strewn with the bodies of the fighters from Arcadia.
Soon, word spread that Blithe Lord’s subordinates and Arcadia had been wiped out. Gloria quickly received news of this since she had been waiting outside Cordierite Association’s temporary base in Lightspring.
She had presumed she would receive news of the robber’s death since there were many fighters in Cordierite Association. They also gathered many fighters from various top sects.
Such a major collaboration with various sects ought to have gone without a hitch, but it was all wishful thinking on her part.
“What should I do? If the robber found out that I was the one who leaked the information, he would never let me off! He will make my life a living death. What is Cordierite Association doing? Why are they unable to kill a robber with so many people? I don’t know how long I can hide the fact that I framed the robber. Lord Long won’t come after me first, right?”
Gloria felt restless due to her worry. Her face was as pale as a sheet as she was incredibly afraid the robber and Lord Long would come to settle their scores with her.
The three black-robed elders in Cordierite Association had grim expressions while the rest of the fighters started panicking among themselves.
“Although Blithe Lord had a motley troop, his subordinates were vicious outlaws. I can’t believe they lost.”
“The most important thing is that Arcadia was wiped out. I heard that their vice sect leader was leading the army.”
“Just what kind of terrifying person have we messed with?”
“We’re lucky we didn’t reach Astre Lune Sect first, or else we would have been dead meat!”
Everyone had a bad feeling in the pit of their stomachs.
Meanwhile, the news of the two major sects being wiped out soon reached the other sects, who formed the rest of Cordierite Association’s reinforcements.
The news came like a bolt from the blue and instantly sent everyone into an uproar
Chapter 3999 Eight Hundred Elites Of Prime Company
Most of the sects were shocked when they heard about Blithe Lord’s army fleeing and Arcadia being wiped out. The elites from large sects like Inkflame Court, Holy Spirit Academy, Divine Blade Sect all had solemn looks on their faces.
“Blithe Lord was personally leading his spirit beast army and hundreds of his powerful fighters into battle! Who would’ve thought they’d suffer such a crushing defeat?”
“Arcadia even deployed its vice sect leader! They also have Hundred Alchemical Gods Array, which terrifies even the most powerful of fighters. I can’t believe they got annihilated just like that!”
“This truly is unbelievable! Those two forces should’ve been just as powerful as the army they were up against!”
“Blithe Lord once destroyed three large sect headquarters in a day using only the spirit beasts. Could it be that he got careless this time?”
“As careless as he may have gotten, they are still two incredibly powerful forces. They say not a single spirit beast made it out alive!”
Everyone gasped in shock when they heard that.
Blithe Lord’s spirit beasts were a force to be reckoned with. Even the weakest ones were on par with elders of large sects.
As if that wasn’t enough, Blithe Lord’s soldiers comprised criminals of the worst sort, most of which practiced the cultivation of sinister arts.
On top of that, Arcadia also specialized in refining weapons and had tons of ultimate weapons in its arsenal.
Hundred Alchemical Gods Array once had a terrifying record of killing ten top-class fighters of large sects in a row.
As such, a mere robber and Astre Lune Sect couldn’t possibly have defeated two such powerful forces.
It simply did not make any sense.
“Oh, I know what’s going on!” said one of the elders of Inkflame Court.
Everyone shifted their gazes toward him and waited for him to go on.
“Prime Association’s top fighters must’ve helped out. This is the only logical explanation!” the elder continued, shocking everyone at the scene.
All the fighters from other sects nodded and agreed with his statement.
“Yeah! That has got to be it! Prime Association may not be as powerful as Cordierite Association, but they’re still a force to be reckoned with!”
“Mr. Webber of Prime Association’s branch in Lightspring declared his intention to protect the robber. That shocked all the fighters at Prime Association’s headquarters!”
“That would make perfect sense! The robber is but a man, so there’s no way he could kill all the fighters from two large sects on his own!”
Just like that, everyone assumed Prime Association was the reason behind the defeat of the two powerful forces.
“In that case, we’ll have to take care of the troublesome Prime Association first!”
“That’s right! Let’s head over to Lightspring and investigate this! If our theory is proven to be true, then we should teach Prime Association a lesson!”
“I wholeheartedly agree with this suggestion. We need to teach Prime Association a lesson so they won’t dare mess with Cordierite Association!”
With that, they concluded their discussion and fell back to Lightspring.
Cordierite Association’s allied troops marched toward Prime Association’s branch in Lightspring.
They all had righteous and prideful looks on their faces as they gathered outside Prime Association’s branch.
“Listen up, Prime Association! Recall your fighters in Astre Lune Sect immediately! Otherwise, we, Cordierite Association, will launch an attack on you!”
“Have Mr. Webber come out right now, or we will proceed to charge right in!”
“Stop wasting your time talking to them! Let’s just go ahead and level this branch!”
While the men from Cordierite Association were making their threats, the eight hundred elites from Prime Company had just arrived at the branch in Lightspring.
Both parties clashed against each other on the spot.
“There’s no mistaking it, all right! Prime Association must be the one backing that robber up!”
“I can’t believe Prime Association would mobilize this many of their fighters! They sure are going all-out this time!”
“I bet they sent a lot of fighters to assist in that battle!”
Chapter 4000 The Huge Army Arrives
The forces of Cordierite Association believed that it was Prime Association’s fighters who defeated Blithe Lord and Arcadia.
Prime Company’s fighters were confused when they heard that as they had just received their orders and arrived in Lightspring. “What are they talking about?” one of the elites of Prime Company asked.
The person in charge of Prime Company then contacted Sylvan to explain the situation in Lightspring and ask him what was going on. “They think we were the ones who did that?”
Sylvan burst out laughing. Levi and Thunder Qilin did so much damage to Blithe Lord and Arcadia that their men discarded their armor and ran off!
Prime Company had no idea that Levi and Thunder Qilin were the ones who slaughtered the two forces. Sylvan then sent them a message explaining what happened. However, he stopped receiving replies from them after that.
Of course, Sylvan wasn’t all that worried about Prime Company as they had eight hundred elite fighters. He knew that no sect would dare mess with such a powerful force, and he was right about that.
The men from Cordierite Association didn’t dare make any sudden moves on Prime Company. Despite being backed by Cordierite Association, they knew it wasn’t a guaranteed victory if they went against Prime Company.
In fact, the plan could even backfire and result in their defeat instead.
“All we have to do is make sure these elites from Prime Company don’t assist that robber!”
After discussing their strategy, they decided to have Sea of Stars Guild and Tenebrous Sky Division remain in Lightspring to watch over Prime Company.
The rest of their troops then charged toward Astre Lune Sect.
With two powerful forces glaring daggers at them, the elites of Prime Company didn’t dare make any sudden moves.
They tried to contact Sylvan and alert him of their situation, but they were unable to do so as Cordierite Association had jammed the signals from their communication devices.
Given the circumstances, the elites of Prime Company didn’t dare leave Lightspring.
After all, they were technically helping Levi out by keeping a portion of Cordierite Association’s men occupied.
In the meantime, Cordierite Association launched an all-out attack on Astre Lune Sect with its allied forces, which consisted of Inkflame Court, Holy Spirit Academy, Divine Blade Sect, Battle Tiger Tribe, Titanus Order, and Drakotigris Order.
Hundreds of cloudships soon arrived and surrounded Astre Lune Sect from all directions.
The fighters then set up their camps and established defensive formations in preparation to launch a combined attack.
A menacing energy filled the air as they got ready to commence the battle.
Astre Lune Sect knew about the incoming attack as Quirina’s scouts had reported the enemy’s every move to their headquarters.
“Lord Garrison, Cordierite Association’s forces are way too powerful for us to handle. I think we should be more cautious in our approach!” Quirina advised.
Sylvan nodded and added, “Those six powerful sects are all on par with Arcadia’s forces. Battle Tiger Tribe, Titanus Order, and Drakotigris Order, in particular, are especially powerful. We mustn’t underestimate them!”
Levi waved nonchalantly at them and said, “That’s fine. They’re nothing but small fry.”
“But…”
Everyone fell silent upon hearing that.
Although Levi had displayed exceptional strength in combat, they still believed he was being a bit too arrogant.
Given how powerful those sects were, a combined attack from all six of them would be incredibly terrifying.
“You two can join me on the battlefield!” Levi said while gesturing at Cheriette and Larissa.
