Chapter 2340 -2238: Fall

“Where do you think you’re going?” Salena Carpenter’s hand rested on the shoulder of the white-clothed scholar.

The instant she touched him, his shoulder began to melt away, the holy flesh of a True Saint seeming to dissipate as easily as a clump of ice in Salena’s grasp.

Then with a flick of her wrist, the net of fire violently ensnared the Dark Vulture Cultivator, and in a flash, his skin burst into flames.

Both men let out agonizing screams.

“Don’t kill us, our master is Lu Tong. If you kill us, he will surely kill you.”

“Lu Tong? The ruthless man who once killed a Half-step Crossing Tribulation Cultivator with his True Saint Realm power? He actually took on two disciples.”

Hearing the screams of the two men, those cultivators who knew of Lu Tong took a sharp breath.

Bang!

A surge of spiritual energy attacked Ethan Smith, manifested by an elder with white hair who had suddenly made his move.

The energy fluctuated in the air, sealing off all possible escape routes for Ethan.

Within that spiritual energy lay hidden a cyan Array, which would have been imperceptible had not Ethan’s divine sense reached the level of Heavenly Might.

Seeing this, Salena let the two men go and then lashed out fiercely with her whip.

With a single strike, she scattered the spiritual energy aimed at Ethan, while the poisonous needle was caught between Ethan’s two fingers.

The moment of contact turned his two fingers pitch black.

Uncertain of the nature of the poison, Ethan did not dare hesitate and immediately severed both fingers.

Taking advantage of the moment, the two men produced a Talisman and, crushing it, teleported away.

“My friend, mercy is a virtue where it can be afforded. Besides, Lu Tong is not an easy adversary. If you kill his disciples, you too will not live in peace. Since neither party bears significant enmity now, let me mediate a reconciliation between you all.”

The white-haired elder showed a warm smile on his face.

“You all, truly too young. Although you possess some strength, you must understand that Lu Tong is a notorious figure in Purgatory—few cultivators dare provoke him. This time, I have saved you both.”

“Salena, kill that old man, don’t let him get away,” Ethan said coldly.

“Alrighty!”

Almost instantly, Salena was in front of the elder.

Her fiery garment completely locked down the space, leaving the elder no chance to escape, and then Salena hammered down with both fists, approaching with a cold smirk.

With a single punch, she broke the elder’s arm, prompting his soul to nearly depart from his body.

“You two, I merely sought to resolve your dispute, why resort to lethal force?”

“You seem so keen on making peace for others, then use your life to pay the debt.”

This old thing was really no good bird. He watched as they were attacked.

Now he even dared claim he was helping them. If Ethan hadn’t noticed the poisoned needle within the spiritual energy, he might have been caught off guard by this old dog’s trap.

Under Salena’s full assault, the Ninth Rank True Saint was no match at all.

In a matter of moments, she blew his head apart and then grabbed his divine soul, tossing it to Ethan.

…

“Ethan, will you continue your cultivation now?”

Salena looked towards Ethan.

“The Bone Refining Water here has had its demonic qi weakened a lot after my days of cultivation; we’ll need to return after some time.”

“What about going to the Ninth Layer? The Bone Refining Water there should contain a denser demonic qi, which should be more beneficial for you.”

“No, this Bone Refining Water contains a hint of will. When I was cultivating on the Eighth Layer, I almost encountered a major problem. If a will were to take form in the Ninth Layer, I’m not sure I could handle it.”

Ethan hesitated, then shook his head.

He now needed a vast amount of energy, but he couldn’t just blindly go in.

Moreover, the Ninth-layer Purgatory Space was incredibly vast, and the strength of many living beings and cultivators cultivating within was a mystery.

With his current state, entering would be far too dangerous.

Suddenly, a talisman within the ring started to vibrate.

“Lornclould City is in trouble. The first batch of people from the Holy Region has arrived in Purgatory; they reached Lornclould City ten days ago and have notified all sect families to come and obey their commands. Already eight aristocratic families have been exterminated for not complying, and now many sect leaders with abundant resources are being imprisoned, forced to hand over all of their resources.”

Listening to the information coming from the talisman, Ethan Smith frowned immediately.

“Let’s go, back to Lornclould City.”

Ethan Smith took out a warship, and together with Salena Carpenter, they hurried toward Lornclould City.

Kennedi Evans had helped him considerably; he must ensure that Kennedi Evans was freed from the control of the Holy Region.

“Salena, change your appearance first.”

Ethan Smith handed her a mask and, after putting it on, their features wriggled and transformed into another appearance, and their aura also changed suddenly. They adjusted their power to that of a True Saint Third Grade, which wouldn’t attract attention.

This was a magical artifact he had obtained by looting and killing the three First Elders of the Blood Sect, which now came in handy. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com

“Do we really need to go to such lengths? Why not just beat them all down?”

Salena Carpenter pouted, finding her new appearance somewhat ugly.

“Better to be cautious. Since the Holy Region intends to control Purgatory, they will surely have a trump card up their sleeve, and caution will ensure a longer survival.”

As soon as they entered the city gates, countless auras locked onto them.

“Halt, who are you?”

A few people stopped Ethan Smith and Salena Carpenter.

“We are rogue cultivators from Purgatory, here to gather at the summons,” Ethan Smith said.

“Two True Saint Third Grades, not bad, come here to register,” one of them said.

As they passed through a gate, a flash of light passed over them, and a number immediately appeared on the gate.

“You have five pieces of gremlin, hand them over.”

The registrar’s face showed a look of ecstasy.

“This is what I’ve saved up with great difficulty. What will I do in the future if I give these to you?” Ethan Smith feigned fear.

“Don’t worry, when the different races invade, these resources will be fairly distributed. At this critical juncture, how can one be so selfish as a member of the Hominini?”

The person spoke with an air of righteousness.

“Alright, whatever you say,” Ethan Smith relented.

He took out five pieces of gremlin, which had not been placed in the Sumeru Ring. Surprisingly, the device had detected them.

It seemed that to plunder resources, the Holy Region had deployed many magical artifacts.

Upon entering Lornclould City, the place was already densely packed with people, and a faint smell of blood lingered in the air.

“It looks like the people from the Holy Region have already scavenged a round.”

Ethan Smith quickly made his way towards Moon Pavilion. The place was now entirely populated by members of aristocratic families.

There were even a few familiar faces, two elders from the Carney family; these were the ones who had previously blasted Ethan Smith into the spatial turbulence.

“Brother, excuse me. What happened to the previous owner of Moon Pavilion? She still owes me a few pieces of gremlin.”

Ethan Smith caught hold of someone he had seen before in the Central Square, not a person from the Holy Region.

The man stared at Ethan Smith with a wary expression and said nothing.

Ethan Smith discreetly passed over a piece of gremlin, and the man’s tense expression eased up a bit.
