Chapter 2418

“Though he’s told you that I acquired the secret techniques in Fyre Cave, I’m sure he didn’t tell you which ones! Since we’re already here, I may as well elaborate! You see, among the secret techniques, one of them specifically dealt with formations!” replied Gerald who was still smiling.

“Oh? Do you mean to say that you can break free from my formation? Now that I’d like to witness! I’ve refined my bone eroding formation for centuries, you know? Can you really break free from it? If you manage to do it, I don’t mind letting you in on a secret!” scoffed the unconvinced man.

“Deal! Well, here it goes! ” replied Gerald as he drew his blade before yelling, “Skysplit!”

Following that, Gerald utilized the Cosmo-Amorphous Sword Technique to strike toward Saint Darkwind!

Naturally, this startled the man, though he quickly chanted a spell to form a massive shield made of air before him! To Saint Darkwind’s dismay, the second the blade collided against his shield, it immediately shattered into a million pieces…!

His eyes now widened in disbelief, Saint Darkwind quickly raised his arms in hopes of dampening the impact… However, the aurablade simply sliced him clean in half! Before his corpse could hit the ground, however, it quickly turned to dust which rapidly remerged into a smug looking Saint Darkwind who looked good as new!

Laughing out loud, Saint Darkwind then proudly declared, “You’re the real deal, that’s for sure!

Fortunately, instead of fighting you head-on like Ryder, I’m smart enough to rely on this formation! Still, had we fought outside the formation, your attack just now would’ve surely ended me!”

Before Gerald could reply, Saint Darkwind was already chanting and within seconds, the dust and gravel picked up by the swirling wind had taken the shape of a huge dragon and ferocious looking tiger…!

As the two beasts charged toward the boy, black chains that were summoned from thin air began bolting toward Gerald as well! In no time at all, Gerald was completely bound by the chains! Once the beasts were inches away from him, they stopped in their tracks before releasing ear piercing roars!

With how mighty the roars were, they seemed almost capable of piercing through the heavens.

“And here I thought you’d be smart since you’re talented enough to be one of the strongest people in the cultivation realm… As it turned out, you’re pretty stupid to fall right into my formation and die here!

Know that the second my dragon and tiger touch you, you’ll be nothing but dust! With that said, why don’t we make a deal?” asked Saint Darkwind once he was sure that Gerald was firmly tied up as he outstretched his hand to ensure that the tiger and dragon would strike the second he ordered them to.

Looking as cool as a cucumber, Gerald simply replied, “Oh? What do you have in mind?”

“You have two choices. The first is that you teach the supreme techniques to me. Following that, I’ll scrape your cultivation off though I’ll let you live. While I’m not a particularly kind man, I’m not as cunning as Ryder! Besides, I have my reasons for enhancing my cultivation. So, what do you think?”

asked Saint Darkwind with a smirk.

“Depends on what the second choice is.”

“The second involves you surrendering and working for me! While I won’t scrape your cultivation off, you’ll have to swallow my bone eroding pill so I can prevent you from betraying me! ” explained Saint Darkwind with a smile.

“Sounds good. However, truth be told, I should be the one offering options to you,” scoffed Gerald with a sneer…
