However, Ancestor Bodhi wasnât able to achieve this. He still maintained the appearance of a young,
fair child. Despite his little limbs, he could still run very quickly, especially with how energetic he
seemed. On the other hand, Morten was still very much worried about Hollyâs safety. Without any
hesitation, he rushed up to the peak of War Mountain.

Alex
Unexpectedly, the gates to War Mountain were still guarded by some disciples at a time like this.
Seeing Morten and the others trying to climb the mountain, they immediately went forth to block their
way.
Morten
Alex
âThe War Mountain is private property. No outsiders allowed!â The two disciples stood in the middle of
the road.
Shelly took a glance at them and huffed coldly. âThe Mountain Warriors used to be known as quite a
famous clan. I didnât expect all of them to have turned to the dark side. They donât even seem human
anymore.â
Morten was able to tell too. There was Shadow Blood around their foreheads. Moreover, the energy
within the shadow was the same as the demonic Chi around the skies.
Morten
Alex
Ancestor Bodhi ran towards Morten with short legs. âThereâs no doubt that it really is the Primal Old
Devil! Thatâs weird. Did he not die? Whatâ s inside the Pantheon Tomb then?â
Morten
Alex
The two Mountain Warrior disciples watched as the group continued their discussion as if no one was
around. They even called the Primal Old Devil as just an ordinary title, despite it being the current God
of Mountain Warriors.
âOne would have to treat the Primal God with utmost respect here! You guys are doing this to fulfill a
death wish, arenât you?!â
âKneel!â
âPray sincerely to the peak of War Mountain, and refer to the Primal Old Devil as âFatherâ! Elsewise,
you all are done for.â
âCall him what now?â
Morten and the others froze.
Morten
Alex
Ancestor Bodhi cackled out loud. âYou want me to call that old devil âFatherâ? Oh man, haha! That
reminds me, that old devil really does like being a father. But itâs a shame, really. Once he sees me,
heâd have to call me âFatherâ instead.â
âHow dare you!â
âCapture them!â
Just then, Shelly took matters into her own hands. Two metal chains shot out her body, impaling
through the two disciplesâ foreheads. With this, she instantly killed both of them at the same time.
Those chains actually came from Persephoneâs Folly Bridge.
Shelly spoke up. âThese people have all been tainted by Primal demonic Chi and have been marked by
the Primal Old Devil! Apart from receiving his demonic energy, they had also become his tools. They
could easily turn into his extra bodies at any point in time, and it would be impossible to save them now.
So donât feel any mercy for them. Just kill them off right away!â
Morten nodded and quickly rushed towards the main area within War Mountain with Shelly and
Ancestor Bodhi. They noticed many wind blades slashing through the air in just a few moments. It was
extremely sharp and powerful, fighting against the endless Primal demonic Chi.
Morten
Alex
âItâs Holly!â
Morten was very familiar with Hollyâs Chi, so he was able to identify that the blade aura came from her.
Morten
Alex
Shelly nodded as well. âThatâs the Sword of righteousness and uprightness of the Mountain Warriors
clan. Your godsister really did end up getting her hands on the true sword art of the Mountain Warriors.
She even has a deity-tier spiritual root. Without it, she wouldnât have ever been able to master this
sword art.â
Dashing over, Morten finally reached the battlefield. He noticed that Holly, who he hadnât seen in years,
fought with a woman of her age.
Morten
Alex
Holly seemed even prettier than before as well, with a determined look on her face. At the time, she
had already won since the woman opposite her had one of her arms cut off and was bleeding
profusely.
Holly looked at the woman coldly. âSydney, so what if you took my spiritual roots? Things that arenât
yours will never be yours, you know? But I really have to thank you for digging my secondary root out.
Else I would never have known that I possess twin spiritual roots. And my other one is a deity-tier root.â
Sydneyâs eyes looked as if they could kill. âDeity-tier? You actually have a deity-tier spiritual root⦠No
wonder you were able to cut my arm off! Fine then, Iâll be taking your deity-tier root too!â
After saying that, Sydneyâs amputated arm was instantly surrounded by concentrated demonic Chi and
was somehow able to grow a new one right there and then. However, her new arm was entirely black,
with red veins popping all over. It was simply a terrifying sight. Moreover, the skull shadow within the
bloody clouds rushed into her body too.
