Chapter 372: 187
A look of joy crossed the face of the Complete King Seat as he suggested this to Cloud upon the Sea and the others. This idea caused Logan to become nervous, as all his previous arrangements would be undone if Cloud upon the Sea saw through his plot.
Just as Logan was feeling anxious, Cloud upon the Sea sneered coldly, “Ridiculous! Do you think I can be easily deceived? This is nothing but a tactic you and Logan discussed beforehand to find an opportunity to ambush.”
He could see it all too clearly – the opponent was as cunning as Logan. Why hadn’t they talked about joining forces before? As soon as he brought out the elixir, the Complete King Seat immediately changed his attitude.
It’s nothing but the fact that he knows he can’t win alone, so he wants to join forces with me and thus make me let my guard down. It may seem like I have an extra ally against Logan, but in reality, it only increases the hidden danger to myself.
The Complete King Seat was stunned and continued to defend himself, “I am sincere in wanting to cooperate. Logan and I share a deep enmity. If you don’t believe me, I can swear to the heavens. As a strong person like myself, breaking my oath would bring divine retribution.”
“I don’t believe it. Whether you’re Logan’s comrade or enemy, I don’t want you to join, because Logan is far too cunning. I don’t want any slightest mistake or variable to exist.”
Cloud upon the Sea shook his head, full of extreme confidence and arrogance. After all, his three guards could now be considered Complete King Seats. Within the time it would take to burn an incense stick, unless a true Dominating Realm master arrived, everything here would be under his control, as well as the entire life and death of the Secret Land.
The face of the Complete King Seat grew cold, and he waved his hand, “Hmph, when have I ever been so humble and submissive to others? Since you can’t understand my explanation, then there’s no need to explain further. If you have the guts, go ahead and attack me.”
He only had three Throne guards, which showed that he had some background, but he didn’t think much of them. After all, there were many Throne realms in the Territory, and the strength of each Throne realm varied greatly.
From the early stages to the Complete King Seat, the gap between them was enormous. He could make an exaggerated claim that the combined power of ten early-stage Thrones wouldn’t be as strong as a Complete King Seat. If the opponent didn’t give him face, then it’s no big deal, he would just kill both the opponent and Logan together.
“I’ll only act like a king here in this realm. Besides the Lord, who else can hinder me? Even if you win today, my father, the Grand Elder, will chase you to the Ends of the Earth.”
Cloud upon the Sea didn’t care; he commanded his three guards to charge forward. The terrifying laws and divine powers converged in mid-air, while the chilling murderous intent constantly descended. In an instant, the whole world was changing.
The Complete King Seat furrowed his brows. The opponent was actually the son of the Grand Elder? This news made him feel like he was facing a great enemy. Naturally, he knew what the Grand Elder represented – he was the first man under the Lord.
Faced with the attack of the three guards, he didn’t want to fight, but he had no choice but to face them. Moreover, the three guards were full of murderous intent, leaving him no opportunity to take advantage of. They seemed to want to use the time it would take to burn an incense stick to kill him, a Complete King Seat, which truly angered him.
If the opponent were the son of the Grand Elder, he would have had to give face, but with his life at stake now, he could no longer care about that. In the end, he decided to leave Cloud upon the Sea with a single life.
As for Logan, he wanted to take advantage of the situation and flee while the two sides were both defeated, but this time escaping was not so easy. After only retreating a few steps, he was attacked by a guard with a Dharma device.
While dodging, Logan shouted, “Hey, stop fighting! Your two companions can’t beat a Complete King Seat. You’re wasting time here with me. What if your two companions are killed?”
“Our Young Master’s obsession has always been with you. If you no longer exist, this battle can be declared over. Don’t you understand the principle of ‘capture the leader to defeat the bandits’?”
This guard snorted coldly. As long as Logan was slain, Cloud upon the Sea’s hatred could be dissolved, and they could all Return to the Mansion without having to experience the life and death struggles in the Secret Land.
It had to be said that this was a wise move, and even Logan admired it in his heart. He also knew that this battle was inevitable, and it was the perfect opportunity to truly test his skills against a Throne.
Logan was only at the Mythical Realm, and the only formidable part of his strength was his extraordinary Dharma device, which was his key to victory. So every time he advanced, he was cautious, never giving his opponent a single chance to take advantage of him. As time went on, his opponent became increasingly impatient, using their divine powers without any strategy.
Logan seized upon a mistake and immediately infused the laws into the Dharma device. Under the terrifying support of the great laws, the Dharma device seemed to have expanded hundreds of times in an instant. The illusionary space shook violently, and a heart-throbbing breath erupted, scattering in all directions. Cloud upon the Sea’s eyes widened in shock.
This attack pierced through all time, leaving everyone in a stupor. Was this truly the attack of a Mythical Realm cultivator? It seemed that even a Dominating Realm cultivator couldn’t achieve such a harmony with the laws.
The Throne, feeling unwilling, didn’t have a chance to deploy his divine powers before he was pierced through by the arrow. The power of the laws tore his entire body apart and finally turned him into a speck of dust.
As for Logan, that strike had made him feel pretty bad. It was as if his body had been thrust into a sea of flames, and it seemed that with just a single careless step, he would fall into the raging fire. Cold sweat dripped from his forehead, and it took more than a dozen breaths for him to recover.
“To kill a Throne in ten moves is truly shocking. It seems there has never been anyone like this. Even with geniuses or monsters against the heavens, the Mythical Realm doesn’t have this kind of strength.”
Cloud upon the Sea felt both grief and despair. He grieved for the loss of a Throne and wondered how he would explain the situation to his father when he returned. After all, each Throne was a hard-to-come-by combat power, and he had lost two in just two days.
His despair lay in Logan’s terror, as he had originally thought himself a genius. So young and yet he had already surpassed his peers. Comparing himself to Logan, he felt insignificant and even somewhat shabby. Did all geniuses have to fight out of their league and mercilessly crush the confidence of their peers?
“Forget it, let’s leave here first. No matter how the battle develops, I’m safe now.” Logan knew that he wasn’t strong enough, so he quickly disappeared into the shadows to recuperate his strength after a flash.
Everything had seemed like a fleeting moment, but the passing of a Throne was a reality. Everything felt like they were in a dream, as it became difficult to tell what was real and what was false.
With one guard gone, the remaining two faced even more significant pressure in their battle against the Complete King Seat. Not only was there a gap in their battle strength, but their morale also underwent a massive change. After all, one of their companions was already dead, and the remaining two were already fearful.
They had cultivated their way to the Throne realm with great difficulty, and they did not want to stop there in their lifetimes. They still dreamed of one day becoming members of the Dominating Realm. So, they fought while retreating, not daring to face the Complete King Seat head-on.
