Chapter 1938: The Powerhouses of Sacred Hall Sect
Facing the elder’s full-force attack, Billy frowned slightly and countered with a Heavenly Fury Slash.
A loud boom echoed, and a figure was sent flying a thousand meters away-it was Billy.
With his current strength, a single Heavenly Fury Slash could cut down a sixth-rank Heaven Dao Realm expert! However, his opponent was an eighth-rank Heaven Dao Realm powerhouse. Even without using full strength, he was not someone Billy could easily contend with.
Nevertheless, injuring Billy wasn’t easy either. After the exchange, Billy only suffered minor injuries, which didn’t affect his combat abilities at all.
Seeing Billy’s condition, the elder was slightly taken aback but didn’t linger. He launched another attack, sending waves of energy surging towards Billy.
Billy chose not to confront the attack head-on and dodged swiftly.
“Let’s see where you can hide!” the elder growled, sending a barrage of violent energy waves raining down on Billy’s position, accompanied by fierce winds.
Billy frowned slightly and swung his kylin blade, sending out dozens of blade lights to meet the attack.
A series of explosions resounded, causing the void to tremble and reveal several dark rifts.
Simultaneously, Billy was once again sent flying eight or nine hundred meters away, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
This time, he was evidently more injured, but it wasn’t too severe.
“Billy, let me handle this. I’ll finish him in one move!” Purple Spirit’s voice echoed in Billy’s mind.
“Not yet,” Billy responded mentally. “The Sacred Hall Sect lured me to Southern Barbarians City. They must have sent more than one person. Let’s wait and see.”
“Can you hold on?” Purple Spirit asked.
“You underestimate me,” Billy replied with a faint smile.
“I know you have a trump card that supposedly allows you to leap a major realm in battle,” the elder said as he floated not far from Billy.
“Show me what you’ve got. Otherwise, you won’t get another chance. I want to see just how strong that move of yours is!”
“Since you’re so interested, I’ll grant your wish,” Billy said, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth.
“Good!” the elder replied.
As he spoke, his aura surged to its peak, revealing his late eighth-rank Perceiving Dao Realm cultivation.
He then made broad sweeping motions with his hands, creating countless afterimages in the void. A high-speed rotating vortex of air appeared before him, distorting the void within hundreds of meters.
In the next moment, Billy felt a powerful force pulling him towards the vortex’s center, like a miniature black hole.
He tried to resist by channeling his energy, but it had little effect. His body was uncontrollably drawn towards the vortex.
“Interesting,” Billy muttered, deciding not to waste any more time with his opponent.
With that, he unleashed a Cracked Sky Slash, tearing through the void and flashing towards the vortex’s center at lightning speed.
A faint sound echoed as an arm flew into the air.
The vortex instantly dissipated, and the oppressive aura vanished. A figure drifted like a leaf in mid-air, blood spraying everywhere.
“How is this possible?” The elder finally stabilized himself, his face filled with disbelief.
He had witnessed Billy’s trump card-a move that could indeed leap a major realm to kill an opponent. Such monstrous talent!
Moreover, he could tell that Billy had held back earlier. If he had used his full strength, the elder would be dead by now!
“Surprised?” Billy asked with a faint smile. “Take another slash from me!”
As he spoke, he glanced instinctively towards the horizon.
Without waiting for a response, he raised his hand and sent out another blade light.
Heavenly Fury Slash!
“Elder Augustus, save me!” The elder’s pupils contracted in panic as his voice echoed through the void.
“Stop, boy!” Another elder’s voice rang out as a gust of wind intercepted the blade light.
Two figures appeared on the horizon-one tall and one short.
“Billy, you were right!” Purple Spirit’s voice echoed in Billy’s mind.
“Can you gauge their cultivation?” Billy asked internally.
“Both are ninth-rank Heaven Dao Realm!” Purple Spirit responded.
“So strong?” Billy was slightly taken aback.
Although he knew Sacred Hall Sect was formidable, having two ninth-rank Heaven Dao Realm experts appear so casually was beyond his expectations!
“Yes,” Purple Spirit confirmed. “But don’t worry, Billy. Just hold off one of them for a minute or two.”
“You’re that confident?” Billy chuckled.
“Of course!” Purple Spirit replied. “Against these ants, I won’t need more than three moves to take them down!”
Billy’s lips twitched slightly.
Purple Spirit seemed to be getting more arrogant!
Ninth-rank Heaven Dao Realm powerhouses were mere ants in her eyes!
“Honey, are you alright?” At this moment, Harleen floated over to Billy.
Her opponents had all been defeated after several rounds of combat, including the third-rank Heaven Dao Realm vice-commander. They were either dead or incapacitated.
“I’m fine,” Billy reassured her with a calming look.
Harleen quickly assessed Billy’s condition and relaxed upon confirming he was mostly unharmed.
She then turned her gaze towards the two elders approaching them. “These two are not just eighth-rank Heaven Dao Realm.”
“Indeed,” Billy nodded. “Both are ninth-rank Heaven Dao Realm.”
“It seems we underestimated Sacred Hall Sect,” Harleen said with a slightly grave expression.
“You deliberately lured us out here, didn’t you?” The elder in blue robes asked coldly as he approached Billy. He had noticed that Billy had held back earlier.
“Tell me your names,” Billy demanded instead of answering.
“Sacred Hall Sect Elder Augustus Wilkinson,” the blue-robed elder introduced himself before pointing to the gray-robed elder beside him. “Sacred Hall Sect Elder Masen Brooks.”
“Sacred Hall Sect really thinks highly of me,” Billy said with narrowed eyes.
“I’m curious about one thing,” Augustus Wilkinson said as he looked at Billy. “What makes you so confident in luring us out here?”
“Even if you could use that move again, it wouldn’t be enough to contend with us, would it?”Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
“I lured you out here to take your lives,” Billy replied with a faint smile.
“Just you two?” Masen Brooks sneered as he glanced at Billy and Harleen.
Perhaps they were both confident that even if Billy’s Chi power was fully restored, he wouldn’t pose a threat to them. Hence, they didn’t rush to attack.
“Killing you two is enough,” Billy said with another smile. “If you’re willing to answer a few questions for me, I might consider letting you leave alive.”
“You’re quite humorous,” Augustus Wilkinson replied. “But I’m curious-what do you want to ask?”
“Nothing much,” Billy shrugged. “I just want to know about Sacred Hall Sect’s high-end combat power.”
“So you’re planning to go to war with Sacred Hall Sect?” Masen Brooks scoffed. “I can only describe you with two words: ignorant and fearless!”
“Not willing to talk?” Billy smiled again.
“You are utterly ignorant if you think your current strength is enough to contend with Sacred Hall Sect…” Masen Brooks began to say.
“Purple Spirit, kill them!” Billy interrupted coldly.
