Chapter 1462

Tapio looked at his rapier in disbelief.

He knew James was already an eighth-ranked grandmaster that had mastered the Thirteen Heavenly

Swords and that he also possessed a strange martial art technique.

Turning his eyes up, he stared at James.

He noticed the golden light shimmering on the surface of James’ body.

The light was something that had not existed before this.

In the past, James had only turned into a bronze man.

Now, it looked as if there were some sort of webbing made out of golden light that enveloped his body.

He took a deep breath and tried to keep his cool. Then, he asked, “What kind of martial art technique

are you using?”

“That’s none of your business.”

James glared at him coldly.

He had to defeat his unknown enemy.

Raising the Blade of Justice, he shouted, “Let’s continue.”

“Do you think I’m afraid of you?”

Although Tapio had been taken by surprise by James’ martial art technique, he was not intimidated by

him.

He was someone who had mastered the world’s top martial arts.

Even if James had seemingly impenetrable defenses, he was still confident that he would emerge

victorious.

After speaking, he remained where he stood.

James immediately noticed something was wrong after a few seconds.

“It’s another afterimage.”

James was once again caught unaware by him.

Tapio’s technique was abnormal.

His blood suddenly ran cold and he felt a dangerous presence from behind him.

James quickly turned around and swung his sword.

Clank!

The two swords clashed with each other once more.

This time, Tapio’s rapier snapped in half.

As soon as his sword snapped, Tapio quickly thrust his palm at James’ chest.

James had a golden Energy Wall surrounding his body that made him impervious to most damage.

Unfortunately, the palm attack was extremely powerful. Despite having an Energy Wall and bronze-

colored skin to help him defend against attacks, blood rushed out from his throat from the impact.

James was forced backward by Tapio’s attack.

At the same time, James sensed Cold Energy seeping into his body.

Tapio’s True Energy almost froze his blood.

James quickly utilized Heavenly Breath.

With the assistance of Heavenly Breath, the Cold Energy was immediately expelled from his body.

James landed on a huge rock.

Meanwhile, Tapio floated a hundred meters away in the air.

He gave James an intense glare.

At that time, he was no longer as calm as he was previously. His sunken face showed a never before

seen seriousness.

James’ defenses had surpassed his expectations.

“You win.”

Tapio eyed him for a long while and suddenly surrendered.

His palm attack was the strongest out of all the attacks he used against James.

Despite that, it was only enough to make James cough out blood. Both of them would be severely

injured if the duel went on any longer.

James’ voice dropped to a low, menacing growl. “Where’s the person I’m looking for?”

“Outside Mt. Thunder Pass, in your car.”

After he finished speaking, Tapio’s body flickered, and he disappeared from James’ sight.

“Wait…!”

When he saw Tapio making his escape, James mustered all the strength he could and quickly chased

after him.

However, Tapio was slightly faster than him. James chased after him, but Tapio had already entered

the thickest part of the forest, completely vanishing from his sight.

“Damn it,” James cursed angrily.

He did not have the chance to ask who Tapio served.

James turned around and returned to the peak of Mt. Thunder Pass again.

He dispersed the Invincible Body Siddhi.

Immediately, he felt all the pain of his injuries at once and collapsed to the ground.

During the battle, he was almost completelypushed back by Tapio.

Even the Thirteen Heavenly Swords were barely able to put a scratch on him.

He would have been unable to withstand Tapio’s attacks if not for the Invincible Body Siddhi.
