Nigel Reyesâs body was enveloped by the Spiritual Fire Seal. The flames, albeit somewhat dull, remained unbearably painful for Nigel Reyes!
âIt worked!â
Ethan Smith, seeing this, was ecstatic!
He quickly drew out the bronze sword, aroused his strength, and with a loud shout, launched the third slash of Nine Absolute Beginning Slashes!
The towering Sword Light emerged abruptly, making the ferocious attack send chills down oneâs spine!
âDie!â Ethan Smith roared, the Sword Light intensified and proceeded towards Nigel Reyes, charging with overwhelming force!
At this moment, Nigel Reyes, covered by the Spiritual Fire Seal, stretched out a massive hand. His palm gathered light and surprisingly, it went straight towards the sword light!
âBoom!â
The moment of impact, the entire street turned into a fleeting white expanse!
The terrifying aftermath directly forced Ethan Smith to be blasted back dozens of steps, and his body was marked with multiple white streaks!
But Ethan Smithâs eyes were still firmly fixed on Nigel Reyesâs direction!
Nigelâs palm was seen drenched in fresh blood, even revealing a glimpse of the white bone!
Upon seeing this, Ethanâs face changed.
He didnât expect that the third slash only broke Nigel Reyesâs palm!
The flames surrounding Nigel Reyes began to fade slowly.
His purple robe had been burned, and his skin was marked with spots.
But what was despairing was that Nigel Reyesâs strength did not wane, but instead grew stronger!
His eyes, cold as a Vultureâs, were fixed on Ethan Smith.
His piercing gaze was chilling!
Ethan Smith looked slightly uneasy, he didnât expect that he still couldnât defeat Nigel Reyes even after using his final trump card!
âNo wonder he is a purple robe of the Capital City Martial Arts Associationâ¦â Ethan Smith gasped for breath, his heart filled with a sense of panic.
Nigel Reyes ripped off his robe and step by step was walking towards Ethan Smith.
âNo wonder they sent me, you are indeed surprising.â Nigelâs hands were illuminated with brilliance.
This radiance seemed to combine with Nigel, just like a pair of gloves.
âYou should feel honored to injure me to this extent.â Nigel Reyesâs voice was getting closer and closer, the light on his hands shone brighter and brighter.
A sense of urgency began to take root in Ethan Smithâs heart. If things kept going like this, he was definitely not a match for Nigel Reyes!
But he was even less willing to flee just like this!
âSwoosh!â
At this moment, Nigel Reyes was already advancing with his steps!
He raised his palm and fiercely struck towards Ethan Smith!
Ethan didnât dare slack off, he bellowed and met it head-on with his Golden Fist!
âBoom!â
Terrible Qi Jin poured from Nigel Reyesâs palm!
Ethan Smithâs palm instantly felt a wave of numbness!
Furthermore, Nigel Reyesâs left hand quickly moved, an âannihilationâ character quickly forming, then landed on Ethan Smithâs chest!
âBang!â
The huge character exploded on Ethan Smithâs chest instantly. Ethan Smith was hit hard and his body was thrown sideways!
A large hole was made in his chest! Fresh blood flowed non-stop from the hole!
Ethan Smithâs face was incredibly pale, and a wave of pain came from his chest.
âSurviving the Annihilation formula is already praiseworthy.â Nigel Reyes sneered.
He continued to walk towards Ethan Smith. Each step he took, his oppressive aura became stronger.
Ethan gritted his teeth and whispered, âI canât just sit here and wait to die!â
At this point, Ethan had two paths in front of him â either to fight to the end or to turn around and flee!
But once he runs, Emerson Holmes will most certainly be exposed. By then, Ethan will have no opportunity!
âNo, Iâve tried so hard for this long, I absolutely canât give up now.â Ethan clenched his teeth.
Ignoring the gaping hole in his chest, his eyes were tightly fixed on Nigel Reyes!
âWhat, you still plan to resist?â Nigel scoffed.
Ethan Smith remained silent, taking a deep breath, he whispered, âItâs all or nothing now!â
Ethanâs eyes slightly closed, as if he was preparing to use a technique!
Immediately, Ethanâs aura began to skyrocket!
His cultivation level quickly advanced from the fourth rank of the Military Marquis to the mid-term Military Marquis phase!
This technique was the same one he used against Dexter Blair, forcibly increasing his cultivation level!
However, the side effects of this technique are significant. Once used, thereâs no turning back, and it could even affect his future cultivation!
At this point, Ethan had no other options, it was all or nothing!
âSeeking death.â Nigelâs eyes were filled with a cold light, and he once again cast the Annihilation formula!
A large, dark character swiftly launched forward!
This large character seemingly carried the breath of death, causing chills to run down oneâs spine!
Just as this large character was about to hit Ethan, he abruptly opened his eyes!
âAhh!!â
Ethan roared, the Golden Light in his hand surged as he forcefully met the incoming attack with his palm!
âBoom!â
The Golden Light collided with the Annihilation formula at this instant!
Dense cracks instantly appeared under Ethanâs feet!
The earth seemed to be unable to withstand it, and it began to collapse at this moment!
âRumbleâ¦â
The sky suddenly darkened, and a hurricane was whipped up, followed by a downpour!
âBreak for me!â
Ethanâs palm turned into a fist, and he forcefully pushed forward!
The Annihilation formula could no longer withstand the force, and was directly pierced by Ethanâs Golden Light, disappearing without a trace!
At this moment, Ethanâs strength underwent a fusion transformation, and his cultivation level stepping into the mid-term Military Marquis!
Even though there was only a thin line of difference, the strength gap was huge!
Nigel watched Ethan with cold eyes, a playful smile crossing his lips.
âForcibly increasing your cultivation level?â Nigel raised an eyebrow.
âYou think thatâs useful? As far as I know, this technique can only last for half an hour. After that period, your cultivation level will dissipate and youâll instantly become a useless person.â
Ethan Smith glared coldly at Nigel Reyes and confirmed, âYes, so I have to kill you within half an hour.â
âKill me?â Nigel shook his head.
âThere are many people in this world who can kill me, but you are not one of them.â
Ethan hadnât the time to banter with Nigel. He only had half an hour, so he had to seize every moment!
Ethanâs foot shook, and his body, like an arrow leaving its bow, immediately rushed toward Nigel!
The golden fist contained an overwhelming power, and the surging Qi Jin tore a crack in the ground!
Nigelâs face was cold. He raised his palm and directly collided with Ethanâs punch!
âThump! Thump! Thump!â
This time, Nigelâs light seemed to dim slightly, and his body unconsciously took a few steps back!
âHuh?â This surprised Nigel somewhat.
You should know that even if Ethan forcibly raised his cultivation, he was still only a mid-term Military Marquis and there was still a considerable gap between them.
Yet, the power of Ethanâs fist currently far exceeded his own!
âFighting above your level?â Nigel raised his eyebrows, subsequently sneering, âInterestingâ¦â
As he spoke, Nigel once again began to gather the Annihilation formula in his hand.
In the face of the Annihilation formula, Ethanâs fist also started to gather energy.
His Golden Light morphed into a dragon. Upon listening closely, one could even hear a Dragon Chant!
