Chapter 1522
James was imprisoned in a dark and damp dungeon. Not only was he gravely poisoned, but even his acupuncture points were struck. He would feel excruciating pain coming from inside his body while lying on the ground motionless. As he was a practitioner in the art of medicine, he knew that this was a terrifying Gu venom. Not only would the venom destroy his body, but the Gu were slowly and surely tearing away at his flesh. He writhed on the ground in agony. Lying on the ground, he could feel his head spinning. “No… I have to free my acupuncture points and forcibly eradicate the Gu inside my body.” James gritted his teeth and catalyzed True Energy. “Argh!” The moment he catalyzed True Energy, the Gu inside his body were vitalized and began tearing away at his flesh. His expression contorted in pain, and he could not help but groan in agony. Upon witnessing this, the other ancient martial artists who were imprisoned wore solemn expressions. At that moment, Callan had entered

Just as he took a step forward, the machinery activated, and the passageway was blocked. He staggered backward and catalyzed True Energy to destroy the obstacle. Even though his force was immense, the door did not budge at all. Wearing a grim expression, he scrutinized his surroundings in search of the machinery to open the door and continue forward. “Callan…” A voice came from behind. Callan turned his head and saw Bennett. He nodded. “What’s going on?” Bennett walked over to him and asked. Callan said, “Judging by the situation, there was a fierce battle here not too long ago. If I guess correctly, James and the others have been captured. At the moment, I’m thinking of a way to deal with the blocked passageway.” “Allow me.” Bennett raised his arm, and powerful True Energy gathered in his palm. Boom! The earth rumbled. However, the door did not budge. “It’s no use,” Callan said. “This door is extremely heavy. Even I can’t for
Chapter 1524
In the dungeon… Callan and Bennett were casually tossed aside on the ground. Their lips had turned purple, and their faces were pale. They were evidently poisoned. Upon seeing Bennett being captured, everyone could feel a shiver down their spine. James, who was lying on the ground, asked, “What happened?” As his acupuncture point was struck, he could not see what was going on behind him. Jackson who was leaning against the wall said, “Two more were captured. One of them was Bennett Caden. I don’t know the other.” “Callan, is that you?” James asked. “Yes…” Callan spoke with great difficulty, “I fell into Lucjan’s trap. I guess I underestimated him.” James fell silent. Even if Callan and Bennett were captured, there were still his grandfather and the Sect Leader of the Celestial Sect. Now, he only prayed that they would not fall into Lucjan’s trap. “Argh…” He groaned in pain. James tried freeing his acupuncture points by catalyzing True Energy. However, the moment

Ezekiel scrutinized the steel wire. However, he could not comprehend how Crucifier managed to turn into a steel wire. “I don’t know either. After all, I have never seen Crucifier before. However, I’ve seen James using this steel wire to sever the stone figures’ heads. This should be a pretty good weapon.” “If he doesn’t tell me Crucifier’s secret, I will tear him to pieces,” Lucjan roared. Meanwhile, Ezekiel said with a grim expression, “Thomas has yet to show himself. He’s the most troublesome enemy of all. Once he’s captured, we can inject Gu venom into their bodies.” Upon hearing this, Lucjan said anxiously, “Why hasn’t he appeared yet? He’s too powerful. I heard that he deflected both Tobias and Bennett’s attacks by himself at the Cadens’ residence and even pushed them away. The moment he appears, we have to use the Thousand-Machinery Formation. Otherwise, we don’t stand a chance against him.” Ezekiel said, “The surveillance cameras outside have been destroyed. However, t
Chapter 1526
In the dungeon of the underground palace… Sitting on an armchair, Lucjan smoked his cigar while looking at James who was groaning in pain. He said nonchalantly, “James, my patience is limited. From now onwards, I will kill a martial artist here every ten minutes.” Upon hearing this, James’ expression darkened. He glared at Lucjan and said coldly, “I swear I’ll kill you if I ever have the chance.” “What a shame that that day will never come.” Lucjan smiled. No one could escape from the Thousand-Machinery Formation. He snapped his finger. Soon, a disciple of the Gu Sect walked over to him with a clock. Under Lucjan’s orders, the clock was placed right before James so that he could see the passage of time. Tick tock… Tick tock… Tick tock… The second hand moved. Lucjan smiled, “James, the countdown has begun. Think about what I said carefully. Remember, a martial artist will die every ten minutes because of you.” Wearing a grim expression, James took a deep breath. He

Lucjan scanned everyone in the dungeon. His gaze was fixed on Callan. Noticing something was amiss, he said, “Bring Callan here.” A few Gu Sect disciples walked over to Callan, forcibly dragged him, and tossed him beside James. Upon seeing the sweat beaded on his forehead, Lucjan laughed. “Callan, are you trying to free your acupuncture points? Not bad. You’re good at enduring pain. You didn’t even let loose a scream.” Callan remained silent. Lucjan continued, “Once ten minutes is up, I will kill Callan first.” At that moment, James was lying on the ground. He knew he was running out of time. He had to free his acupuncture points at once. Once his acupuncture points were freed, he could make his escape even if he could not save the others. After he left, Lucjan would no longer be able to threaten him. He silently catalyzed Heavenly Breath, and True Heavenly Yang Energy burst forth. “Argh!” James roared in pain. Boom! In that instant, a heavy sound came from within his

Saving lives was not Thomas’ objective. The fate of the ancient martial artists did not concern him. As long as James was safe and sound, he would be content sitting by the sidelines. His objective was the virus in Lucjan’s control. Not only that, he had a plan concerning the First Blood Emperor and the Blood Race. He did not wish for Lucjan to die either. The Gu Sect was a powerful and influential sect since a century ago. Over the past hundred years, the Gu Sect slowly developed into the behemoth it was today by recruiting many talented individuals. His objective was to control Lucjan and the entire Gu Sect. Thomas remained silent. Meanwhile, Lucjan turned to leave in irritation. He was annoyed that James had escaped. At that moment, James was escaping further into the palace. He knew that the only exit was guarded by the Thousand-Machinery Formation, so this was his only available option. If he was trapped in the Thousand-Machinery Formation once more, he would not be able t

“I guess I have no other choice.” Lucjan nodded slightly. At that moment, a Gu Sect disciple walked in and knelt. “Sir, the First Blood Emperor has arrived.” “Hahaha!” Upon hearing this, Lucjan laughed. At long last, the Blood Emperor was here. Lucjan had gone to great lengths to research Gu venom. Though the results of the research were satisfactory, he still lacked a little something. So, he went looking for the First Blood Emperor, a member of the Blood Race whose blood was different from an ordinary human's. “Let’s go!” Lucjan turned to leave. In a room in the underground palace… The First Blood Emperor was waiting alongside many Blood Race martial artists. He was wearing a black caped jacket and a hat that covered his face. However, his appearance could still be discerned. His face was pale and void of life, just like a zombie. He was sitting on the sofa in a room of the underground palace. Many who wore similar attires were standing behind him. “Blood Em
