Along the way, Rayhan told them about Monster Slayer Island. Despite appearing closed off from the outside world, the island housed many factions. The group of over three hundred immortals was divided into four or five smaller factions. Rayhan belonged to the Cyan Palace, the most powerful faction on the island and the direct successor of the Cyan Warrior."In legends, the Cyan Warrior’s residence was called the Cyan Palace. I thought it was just something created by novelists, but I never expected it to be true," Horace said in amazement."Haha, novels are often inspired by real life!" Adrian laughed."That's true.” Horace agreed.They then arrived at their destination. It was a magnificent palace—none other than the Cyan Palace."Welcome back, sir," several apprentices greeted Rayhan respectfully at the entrance.Adrian's group was surprised. "You’re the leader of a faction?"Rayhan smiled sheepishly.Adrian glanced at the people before him, and he found out that all of them
"Would you allow me to tell you all a story?" Rayhan asked. "Sure. You've already invited us for dinner, so of course, we don't mind listening," Adrian said. Rayhan chuckled.The group chatted until evening, and by then, the dinner was ready. Upon Rayhan's invitation, Adrian and the others took their seats. Glancing around, Adrian noticed the unique dishes before them. The dishes were unlike the ordinary and rustic meals they saw in the world outside. The wine in their cups were extraordinary vintages they had never encountered before."You must be very curious about this island. Today, I will share everything about this place with you," Rayhan said.Adrian and the others exchanged glances and nodded. They listened attentively as Rayhan recounted the history and details of Monster Slayer Island. As the legends went, this island was the Cyan Warrior’s sanctuary. After his ascension, the Monster Slayer Island became a training ground for his apprentices.When the Cyan Warrior dep
Under the thunderous onslaught, their defense was like a lone boat in the vast ocean, constantly facing the danger of overturning. The situation seemed precarious, and Adrian quickly assessed the current state of affairs. He knew that in the current circumstances, staying idle might lead to the possibility of death.Monster Slayer Island collapsed, revealing the hidden Monster Slayer Blade within."This sword is the weapon of the unparalleled powerhouse, the Cyan Warrior. The divine sword has a spirit and possesses profound mysteries. It's not something that just anyone can master. Those who aren’t strong enough will be overwhelmed by the sword's backlash!" Rayhan explained."I may have a way." Adrian's thoughts raced, and he quickly figured something out. He leaped into the air, transformed into a stream of light, and rushed toward the Monster Slayer Blade."Adrian!"The others were shocked. The Monster Slayer Blade was not an item just anyone could control. Why was Adrian chargi
Even Rayhan, who had a good impression of Adrian, looked confused. He felt that Adrian's current situation was not looking good.The Scarlet Harbinger burst into laughter. "How about that? Have you witnessed my power? Now that the troublesome guy has been dealt with, it will be much easier to deal with the rest of you!" He shifted his gaze to the others present, revealing an unprecedented fierceness in his eyes. Faced with his hostility, the crowd immediately raised their guard. Their eyes gleamed with a chilling light as they gripped their weapons tightly. They didn't dare to slack off in front of this person. However, the Scarlet Harbinger's strength was strong. They were uncertain whether they could handle him."Go to hell!" the Scarlet Harbinger roared.A formidable force, a blood-like waterfall, surged toward the crowd. The Scarlet Harbinger was displaying his full power. The blood-colored aura became increasingly powerful, reaching a point where it seemed to cover the sky.
The Scarlet Harbinger sneered. "Hmph, while this sword is powerful, after countless years, it has become a mere shadow of its former self. You’re going to kill me with it? That's highly unlikely." A cold light flashed through his eyes, and his gaze seemed to penetrate everything.In that brief moment of eye contact, Adrian also had a similar feeling. This person's strength was not to be underestimated; he could see through Adrian in an instant.The Scarlet Harbinger was not wrong. When Adrian grasped the Monster Slayer Blade, he could sense the true power within the sword. Although the sword was formidable, the long years had indeed taken a toll on it. At present, its combat power could not be considered exceptionally strong. It had lost at least around forty percent of its power.With this damaged sword, Adrian could not truly contend with the Scarlet Harbinger. After all, the opponent was a genuine monster. If he was injured by this sword, it would be quite embarrassing for him. W
Rayhan looked shocked. "You actually managed to eliminate him?""Yes, and it's all thanks to your Monster Slayer Blade," Adrian replied with a smile.With just the Frost Crystal Divine Sword, he could not have unleashed such formidable power. With the Monster Slayer Blade, although it only increased his combat power by forty percent, it was enough to overwhelm his opponents. That was why Adrian expressed his gratitude for the Monster Slayer Blade’s assistance.Rayhan still looked touched. "Even so, the issue is not something that can be resolved easily.""What issue?" Adrian didn't understand.Rayhan was momentarily stunned, realizing that he hadn't explained the situation to Adrian. He quickly explained, "The Monster Slayer Blade is the most powerful treasure of Monster Slayer Island. Although you borrowed it, it will inevitably lead to dissatisfaction from other forces on the island, especially at this juncture.""Why?""Because the election day for the lord of Monster Slayer
Facing this group of people, Adrian showed no signs of fear. Rayhan sighed as he watched Adrian being so confident, unsure if it was good or bad.Soon, three days passed. For the people on Monster Slayer Island, it was an extremely important day. They were about to select the lord of the island. The method of selection involved entering the Wicked Forest to hunt and kill the Variants inside. The final result would be determined by the stripped cores from those creatures. The trial would last for seven days. The Wicked Forest was the most dangerous place on Monster Slayer Island, filled with countless dangers. To prevent Adrian from falling, Rayhan sent someone named Bruce Pharm to accompany him. Bruce had a deep admiration for Adrian.Bruce bombarded Adrian with questions, "Why did you come to Monster Slayer Island?"Adrian, annoyed, could only say, "I'm here as a tourist. Satisfied?"Bruce didn't believe him, but at the moment, he had no idea of Adrian's reasons, so he could onl
"If you think you can take my cores, dream on!"Even though she was heavily injured, the woman showed no intention of surrendering. Her words sounded full of strength, devoid of any emotion.The leader became furious. "There’s no point putting on a hero act. Even at death's door, you're still defiant. I'll teach you a lesson!" He swung his sword at the woman."What an impressive weapon!" Bruce exclaimed involuntarily, the envy in his eyes apparent.Adrian smiled. "Do you want it?"Bruce shrugged. "Of course, I do.""Let’s get it then."“How?""By saving the damsel, of course.” Adrian shot out like an arrow, rushing out before anyone noticed him.The leader was about to strike the woman on the ground. All his attention was on the woman, completely unaware of Adrian's sudden attack."What the?" Feeling the fierce wind, he realized it was too late. Adrian had struck him in the lower abdomen.He coughed up blood as several of his ribs broke. He was sent flying, rolling several t
