Chapter 619: Chapter 619: 619: The Identity of the Masked Woman_1

Even though that’s the case, the path before them was blocked, so how could they escape?

Even if Ethan Smith exerted his utmost strength, there was no way he could break through this barrier!

And behind them, the two male corpses were approaching step by step.

Their distance grew closer and closer, and the tremendous pressure emanating from them almost left them breathless!

Ethan Smith felt increasingly terrified, as if the two figures before him were like demons!

“Dammit!” the man with the mustache gritted his teeth, as he took out several magical artifacts from his Spatial Magic Artifact.

“I will try to stop them; you think of a way to break this barrier!” he said to Ethan Smith.

Ethan Smith quickly nodded, then took out the bronze sword, intending to try and break through with it.

At that moment, the man with the mustache shouted loudly, releasing the magical artifacts from his hand!

However, a shocking scene unfolded.

With merely a glance from the two male corpses, all the magical artifacts shattered into pieces!

“How… how could this be!” Ethan Smith stared in disbelief!

He knew that the magical artifacts in the man’s hands were among the best of their time!

Yet, even these top-level artifacts were easily shattered by just a glance!

What level of power and technique could that represent?

“It’s over!” The man with the mustache’s face turned ashen as he watched the scene unfold.

He realized that no matter how many magical artifacts they had, it would probably be impossible to restrain these two male corpses!

“Make way, I’ll try!” Ethan Smith hurried to the front.

He was stared anxiously at the two male corpses, feeling a growing sense of terror deep in his heart. The terror stemmed from the vast gap in their strengths and was impossible to suppress!

Clutching the bronze sword in his hand, Ethan Smith roared with rage, pouring all his spiritual power into the sword. His body then shot up, and he struck with all his might!

“Clang!”

The moment Ethan’s sword came into contact with their bodies, it was instantly sent flying!

The tremendous power sent Ethan crashing to the ground, blood gushing from his mouth!

“How could such a being exist in this world…” Ethan Smith’s face turned pale, his heart filled with abject terror.

“It’s over. We’re finished.” The man with the mustache panicked at that moment.

He had been to many tombs, but he had never seen such a powerful existence!

“Don’t you know how to set up a formation? Hurry up and set up a formation to teleport us out of here!” Ethan Smith screamed.

The man with the mustache couldn’t help but curse, “Do you think formations can be set up so easily? Do you think I have time to set up a formation?!”

“Moreover, do you think a formation would be useful in front of such beings?!”

Ethan Smith’s countenance grew even more somber. The two male corpses were getting closer and closer, and the immense pressure they exuded felt like it would soon flatten them!

“It’s no use… they don’t even need to do anything. We’ll be turned into bloody pulp just from their crushing pressure!” Ethan Smith said in pain.

He curled his body, as if he would momentarily collapse to his knees.

Cracking sounds could be heard from all over his body, as if his bones were about to be crushed. Cracks even began to appear on his limbs!

“I told you we should have left right away!” the man with the mustache couldn’t help cursing.

“Now, The Master is going to die here…”

Ethan Smith remained silent. He looked up at the two male corpses, as his mind raced, desperately searching for a way to escape.

“I got it!”

Just then, Ethan Smith had a sudden brainstorm as if he had come up with a solution!

He quickly took out the ancient painting he had obtained from the coffin and hurled it out.

Although he didn’t know if it would work, Ethan could only give it a try.

“Buzz!”

The painting floated above the male corpses, radiating an ancient, timeless aura.

The two male corpses stopped advancing.

They looked up at the painting.

The atmosphere became awkward, and Ethan Smith’s anxiety surged!

“Did it work?” the man with the mustache asked.

Ethan Smith gritted his teeth and said, “I don’t know. We can only try. If it doesn’t work, we’ll return this thing!”

The man with the mustache nodded, saying, “Yes, life is more important.”

The painting remained suspended in midair, while the two male corpses simply stared at it in a daze.

“Hurry up and take out your bracelet and clothes!” Ethan Smith shouted.

At this critical moment, the man with the mustache didn’t dare to delay any further. He quickly took out the clothes and bracelet and threw them forward.

The clothes fluttered through the air, flying towards the two male corpses.

The instant the male corpses saw the clothes, a trace of fear flashed in their pupils!

The next second, they turned around and walked away, with slightly panicked footsteps.

All the powerful auras vanished at that moment, and everything returned to peace.

Ethan Smith gasped for breath, and the pressure on his body nearly suffocated him.

“It really worked!” the man with the mustache said excitedly.

“My friend, your brains do work!”

However, Ethan Smith remained silent, his face full of mixed emotions. The scenes from earlier kept flashing through his mind.

When the two male corpses saw the clothes, they seemed extremely afraid.

It should be noted that they were beings who had surpassed the mighty realm cultivators!

Such invincible beings were scared off by a mere piece of clothing…

What level must the masked woman be at, then?

What had she done to make these two peerless cultivators so afraid that they would be even frightened by her clothes?

“Let’s hurry and leave. I don’t want to stay in this place for another minute.” The man with the mustache took back his clothes, bracelet, and the painting, urging to depart.

Ethan Smith nodded and no longer dwelled on the matter. Instead, he agreed, “Yeah, we should go back and see what’s going on.”

“Go back?” The man with the mustache was taken aback.

“Back where?”

Ethan Smith glanced at him and said, “Of course, leave the Immortal Slaying Sect. We’ll return the way we came.”

Hearing this, the man with the mustache fell silent.

A moment later, he patted Ethan Smith’s shoulder and said, “My friend, I would advise you not to leave for now.”

Ethan Smith furrowed his brow, asking, “Why?”

The man with the mustache replied solemnly, “In the month since you disappeared, all the young nobles have broken through. A new Peak Form of Military Marquis has even emerged in the Capital City Martial Arts Association.”

“Moreover, the Capital City Martial Arts Association has claimed that you are dead. If you’re not dead, then this is a direct slap in their face.”

“They will definitely spare no expense to kill you as quickly as possible, even if it means sending out a Martial Saint!”

Upon hearing this, Ethan Smith fell silent.

The man with the mustache had a point – Ethan Smith was aware that he had repeatedly crossed the Capital City Martial Arts Association’s and various aristocratic families’ lines.

“You are famous now. Wherever you go, you will be the center of attention, and once you appear, there will be no escape,” the man with the mustache continued.
