Chapter 1213
More and more ancient martial artists gathered at the hall of Mount Thunder Sect. A woman was sitting at the back of the hall. She was about twenty years of age, wearing a golden dress and a crown, and exuding the charisma of an empress. It was Delainey Cabral, the young lady of the Mount Thunder Sect. Ever since Jackson’s demise, she had been slowly taking over the sect. Although she had yet to inherit the position of Sect Leader, she was now the person in charge of the Mount Thunder Sect. Many gathered before her─Disciples of the Heaven and Earth Sect, the Sylvan Sect, the Five Swirling Blades Sect, and many other great families. “Has the Mount Thunder Sect fallen so low that it needs a young girl to take charge?” asked a disdainful voice. Hearing this, the faces of the Mount Thunder Sect’s disciples darkened. The face of an elderly man beside Delainey darkened. Then, with a wave of his hand, powerful energy sent the martial artist who insulted the Mount Thunder Sect flyi

Delainey nodded and said, “Please keep in mind that this is not a duel to the death. Once one party admits defeat, you’re not allowed to deal the killing blow. Based on previous rules, anyone can enter the arena. You’ll be the new Great Grandmaster if you’re able to defeat everyone else.” Then, she turned to leave. Though there were around ten thousand people there, no one uttered a single word. The atmosphere was tense. No one volunteered to enter the arena. “Hahaha! I’ll have the honor of becoming the first to enter the arena, then.” A voice came. Then, a middle-aged man leaped onto the arena. Boom! The arena shook. Martial artists who had weaker cultivation bases lost their footing and fell. It was Donovan Blithe. He was a sixth-rank martial artist and knew that he would not be able to become the Great Grandmaster with his strength. However, he was here to lead the charge as he knew that there were powerful figures within his family. Scanning the martial artists

The ordinary-looking stone wall was around fifty meters tall and thirty meters wide. Looking at the stone wall, Thomas’ expression betrayed the excitement he felt. Once he opened the stone wall, he could enter into the depths of the Snow Cavern and locate the Spirit Turtle. Then, after luring the creature out, he would slay the Spirit Turtle and obtain its blood. Most importantly, the records in the four paintings left behind by the Prince of Orchid revealed that the Spirit Turtle had lived for millennia. After consuming its bile, one would gain tremendous strength. Simon’s expression turned grim. As it had been a thousand years, he was not sure if the Spirit Turtle was still alive, nor about its strength. He also had no idea whether the martial artists outside could successfully slay it. He took a deep breath and walked toward the stone wall. Then, he leaped to the top, where a protruding rock could be seen. He catalyzed true Energy and made contact with the rock. Rumble!

However, the sword had disappeared without a trace. Thomas had only seen records of the Malevolent Sword in the ancient scrolls of the Cadens’ household. A thousand years ago, the Prince of Orchid Mountain had many powerful martial artists under his banner. Apart from the four major officials, he also had many loyal subordinates. Among them was a man by the name of Malevolent King who possessed terrifying power. The Malevolent Sword which he possessed was hailed as the most powerful weapon in the world. Simon explained, “To slay the Spirit Turtle, the Prince of Orchid Mountain brought many of his subordinates here. After the battle, almost everyone was wiped out. Among them was his subordinate, the Malevolent King, who owned this sword. When the prince returned, he gathered many craftsmen and constructed three doors to seal the Spirit Turtle inside the Snow Cavern. At the same time, he also left the Malevolent Sword behind.” Simon scanned his surroundings. From the information

“Malevolent Sword? Evil energy?” Thomas’ face darkened. None of this was recorded in the four paintings the Prince of Orchid Mountain left behind. Now, he had a rough idea of why the Prince of Orchid Mountain separated the paintings and gave each to the four major officials. He did not want outsiders to know about this secret. At the same time, he was reluctant to give up. He hoped that future generations would one day unravel the secret behind the four paintings, slay the Spirit Turtle, and accomplish what he could not. “What should we do now? Should we open the door?” Simon asked. Thomas was in a bind. The Spirit Turtle’s blood was horrifying. A single drop of it was enough to turn the weapon into the Malevolent Sword. Even if he could attain immortality, his mind would become deranged. Upon seeing Thomas’ reluctance, Simon knew that Thomas was still sane. At least he would not risk everything just for the sake of obtaining greater power. After a while, Thomas said, “

James reminded him, “I think we should act as soon as possible. Think about it. If we only kill Callan after he massacres everyone here, what will we gain in return? If we strike now, we’ll be applauded by everyone. After becoming the Great Grandmaster, all martial artists will obey our every command. Aren’t we killing two birds with one stone?” James was trying to coax Lucjan into acting now. He wanted to exterminate Callan, the most powerful martial artist present at the conference. “You have a point.” Lucjan nodded slightly. James’ words made sense. However, he had to proceed with caution. If he made even a single mistake, all would be lost. He had to exterminate Callan with a single strike. Otherwise, the consequences would be dire. “In that case, we should do something now,” James said anxiously. He was worried that things would go out of control if they dragged on. Once Callan was eliminated, things would proceed much more smoothly. “Don’t worry, I’ll make the arrangeme

Callan, who was wearing a mask, vomited a mouthful of blood. Although he sent his opponents flying, he was badly injured too. He staggered backward and collapsed to the ground. Immediately, he sat in a lotus position and catalyzed True Energy to suppress his internal injuries. There were thousands of thousands of people at the arena, but the venue was dead silent. Everyone was dumbfounded. Why did the Gu Sect turn against each other all of a sudden? Under the crowd’s watchful gaze, Callan slowly removed his mask. His face was pale, and there were traces of blood on his lips. Wearing a solemn expression, he glared at Lucjan. “Lucjan, I never mistreated you. How dare you…” Enraged, he roared. However, the moment he opened his mouth, he vomited a mouthful of blood. Lucjan said, “Yes… You have treated me well all these years. If not for you, I’d have been dead a long time ago. However, a century has passed, and you have lost the ambition to conquer the world. For a hundred years,

After walking for so long, they still could not find any trace of the Spirit Turtle. “How would I know?” Simon said. Although he knew of the secret here, he had never passed through the mechanisms to arrive here. “Let’s head deeper into the passageway.” Thomas could not believe that the Spirit Turtle was dead. Based on the information left behind by the Prince of Orchid, the Spirit Turtle had lived for many years. It was already three thousand years old even a millennium ago. Even if it suffered an injury, it would not die that easily. The two headed deeper into the Snow Cavern. Before long, they arrived at the deepest part of the passageway. There was a pool of water covered in a thin mist. Scanning his surroundings, Simon said, “There are no other paths.” Thomas nodded slightly and looked at the pool of water in front of him, “If the Spirit Turtle is still alive, it must have concealed itself beneath the pool.” After saying that, he waved, and catalyzed True Energy
