Chapter 140

Chapter 140 Larissa In Action “Sure thing!”

Not wanting to make things difficult for them, Emrys quickly turned around and rode off on his bicycle.

Master Lockwood? Lady Lockwood? Hehe… You used to bully me a lot when we were kids, so I’ll be sure to get my revenge on you!

Instead of leaving the area, however, Emrys simply made his way to the side of the peak and sat down to watch the show.

Boom!

A huge battle had begun as the members of the Central Chanaean Martial Arts Alliance discovered Skorpios‘ hiding spot.

It was truly an epic battle to witness.

Emrys was having a great time watching it from afar.

Of course, it wasn’t the exciting battle that he enjoyed watching. His gaze was fixated on Larissa’s amazing figure as she engaged Skorpios in battle.

Bam!Bam!Bam!

Larissa’s hairband was cut during an intense exchange of blows with Skorpios, causing her long hair to come loose and billow in the wind. That added a hint of femininity to her rather masculine appearance.

“Master Lockwood, Skorpios has suddenly broken through Manifestor level! Should we head back and call for backup?” one of the members suggested.

Having exchanged blows with Skorpios, they realized they were unable to defeat him.

According to the information they had gathered, Skorpios‘ cultivation level was only half Manifestor.

That was the reason they did not bring a lot of people with them.

However, it soon became clear to them that Skorpios had reached Manifestor.

In truth, they could have easily defeated Skorpios if they had come a day earlier.

Unfortunately, Skorpios had only just had a breakthrough, which was mostly Emrys‘ fault.

Had he not killed three of Skorpios‘ disciples, Skorpios would not have been able to unleash his true potential so soon.

This showed a huge difference between the two factions of martial artists.

True martial artists cultivated not only their physical state but also their mental state. One would have to be completely at peace and have no distractions whatsoever when reaching a new cultivation level.

Chapter 140 Larissa in Action The slightest disturbance could result in one’s mental state destabilizing.

However, things were different for martial artists like Skorpios, who focused on unorthodox methods of cultivation. External stimuli such as extreme emotions could help them unlock their true potential and help them level up faster.

As they did not have to cultivate their mental state, they had no fear of losing control. All they had to do was increase their cultivation level through simple and crude methods.

That applied to both martial artists and cultivators.

As Skorpios had already achieved Manifestor, the members of the Central Chanaean Martial Arts Alliance struggled to defeat him.

Larissa was the only one in the group that had achieved Manifestor, so she could somewhat go toe to toe with Skorpios. However, Skorpios‘ cunning tactics and the python head on his shoulder made him a ridiculously tough opponent.

Larissa shook her head when she heard her subordinate’s suggestion to call for backup. “No way!

Skorpios would be long gone by the time backup arrives! There’s no telling how many more lives he’ll take in the process!” she replied through clenched teeth as she charged at Skorpios once again.

This time, Larissa focused solely on offense and neglected her defense completely. While she managed to stab Skorpios twice with her sword, she also exposed herself to the python’s fangs.

While pythons were generally not venomous, this one, in particular, was extremely venomous.

“Watch out, Master Lockwood!” the members of the Central Chanaean Martial Arts Alliance exclaimed in horror when they saw the python attack Larissa.

Larissa gasped in shock and attempted to beat a hasty retreat, but it was too late. The python opened its mouth and was about to bite down on her shoulder.

Bam!

A green ball of flame came flying toward the python and hit it right on the head, setting it alight instantly and causing it to flail about uncontrollably.

“Argh! What is this flame?”

As Skorpios had already fused with the python, he felt its pain as well. He flopped to the ground, rolling as he tried to extinguish the flame.
