Despite facing a cultivator of Milton’s caliber, and despite being outnumbered, Jared displayed not a shred of fear. He knew he wasn’t without options. He still had his Celestial Devourer, the fire unicorn, the Divine Bow, the Dragon Bell, along with the Vermillion Demon Lord that lay in his consciousness field.
With a deafening rumble, all the power within Jared erupted in an overwhelming surge, rippling outward like a tidal wave. In that fleeting moment, his aura exploded.
Facing Ultimate Realm Level Four cultivators, Jared knew he couldn’t afford to underestimate his opponent, especially when there were more than one of them. As his aura surged to a terrifying intensity, the very fabric of the surrounding void began to warp, as if the immense pressure was distorting reality itself.
Milton narrowed his eyes at Jared, his brow furrowing slightly. “This energy… it can’t possibly belong to a Seventh Level Tribulator. This kid certainly has something extraordinary about him.”
Without hesitation, Milton took a step forward, his confidence unwavering despite the disparity in their strength. He raised his hand and pressed it downward with commanding force. Even though Jared exuded terrifying power, Milton was unfazed.
Boom!
In an instant, the very void above Jared split open, and a colossal hand descended, aimed directly at him.
The blow came down with such force that it nearly tore the distorted void apart.
Faced with the overwhelming strike, a fierce glint flashed in Jared’s eyes. Without hesitation, he swung his Dragonslayer Sword, unleashing a torrent of sword intent that manifested as radiant slashes, soaring toward the massive hand. The sword light collided with the hand, erupting in a violent explosion that instantly shredded it into fragments.
Jared, though momentarily stunned, couldn’t hide his surprise. He hadn’t expected an attack from an Ultimate Realm Level Four cultivator to be so easily neutralized.
While Jared was briefly lost in thought, a sudden wave of danger washed over him. His pupils contracted as a figure materialized before him in an instant.
Before he could react, a punch came flying toward his face-not bound by any technique, but carrying the raw power of law itself.
“Jared’s gaze sharpened, his body tense. He didn’t retreat, he knew that avoiding this blow was impossible at this point. The only option was to meet it head-on.
Only the bravest emerged victorious.”
Jared thrust the Dragonslayer Sword forward with all his might.
Bang!
In that instant, a sudden weightlessness overtook him, as though an immense force had sent him soaring backward. However, as his body was flung away, the Dragonslayer Sword remained in his grip, its blade swirling through the air and creating a cascade of sword flowers that blocked every possible escape route.
Despite the storm of sword strikes that swirled around him, Milton advanced relentlessly.
Thud, thud, thud…
Each strike from Jared’s sword found its mark, yet inexplicably, they caused no harm. Milton’s movements remained unimpeded, and he pressed forward without hesitation.
As Milton closed the distance, Jared’s sword intent surged within him. The Dragonslayer Sword let out a resonant hum as he thrust it forward, aiming directly at Milton’s chest.
To Jared’s astonishment, Milton did not flinch or attempt to dodge, instead allowing the blade to plunge toward him.
Clang!
Milton’s body quivered ever so slightly upon impact, and a chilling aura rippled outward. Yet, despite the sword’s deadly precision and overwhelming force, it halted just inches from his chest, unable to advance any further.
Jared’s brows knitted tightly in frustration as the power within him surged once more, his grip tightening around the Dragonslayer Sword. But still, the blade failed to penetrate Milton’s body. The frustration on Jared’s face deepened as his efforts proved futile.
Milton’s cold smirk only grew as he watched Jared struggle. “You can’t hurt me,” he taunted. In a swift, fluid motion, he threw a powerful punch directly at the Dragonslayer Sword in Jared’s hand.
Seeing the impending danger, Jared swiftly sheathed the Dragonslayer Sword and retreated. His sword still bore imperfections, and Zelda had yet to fully recover. If Milton destroyed the weapon now, Zelda would be lost to him forever.
Jared knew he couldn’t afford such a risk, so he reluctantly created distance, keeping his sword close. As he observed Milton standing before him, his brow furrowed with growing concern. Not only was this man immensely powerful, but his physical strength seemed unparalleled. It was clear that Milton’s body had been forged through countless trials, each one strengthening him to an almost indomitable level.
“Let’s see whose body is stronger, yours or mine…” To everyone’s surprise, Jared sheathed his sword and activated his Golem Body. Golden scales rapidly spread across his skin, transforming into a shimmering suit of golden armor that radiated with immense power.
