If he chose to back down now, James would have no choice but to remain in this realm and die eventually.
James drew a long breath. Then, he directed his gaze at Halten, the Yaneiri Kingʼs disciple, and shouted in a steady voice, “I have come here today to kill the Yaneiri King, but before I do that, I will kill you first.”
“Well, we’ll see about that!”
Halten tightened his jaw. He lifted his palm and conjured a few lines of inscriptions. Those glowing inscriptions slowly moved toward the city’s protection barrier and fused with it.
A few seconds later, a sword formation appeared in mid-air right above the protection barrier. Multiple swords of different shapes and sizes materialized from the sword formation. Then, all of those swords flew in James’ direction the next instant.
Halten had used a rather powerful sword formation. The sword energy generated by each of those swords was enough to take out a cultivator in the Permanence Acme Rank.
Before the swords had reached him, James shot himself upward and stopped somewhere a few thousand meters above the ground.
As if they had a life of their own, the swords changed their direction and followed James closely.
James swiftly raised the Death-Celestial Sword and gave it a powerful swing. The immense power of the black sword was unleashed instantly, and it managed to stop the advance of the swords coming after James.
James unleashed the power of the Death-Celestial Sword a second time right away.
Those swords were sent flying in multiple directions and dropping to the ground due to the force this time. Even the sword formation was shattered into pieces.
Halten knitted his brows. He couldnʼt help but feel equally amazed and horrified by James’ powers. “He’s strong…”
‘I can tell that he’s achieved the late stage of Quasi Acme Rank by his aura. He’s definitely not reached the Permanence Acme Rank yet.
‘Also, there’s something strange about the sword that he wields.
‘Still, it’s undeniable that the man has a very solid cultivation base and incredible powers. That was probably why he was able to destroy the sword formation.’ Halten thought.
