CHAPTER 3793
Chapter 3793 Hefaernus Holy Temple
Taking out the Holy Guardian’s men was akin to child’s play for Levi. Blood-curdling cries rang out as he darted through the crowd of enemies.
Seconds later, Rukas had lost at least ten men to death or severe injuries. Rukas swallowed nervously and muttered, “This Bayview reprobate is too formidable!”
The thought of surrendering surfaced in his mind as he watched Levi felling his army at an alarming rate. Many of his men had lost the will to fight. Levi was dealing fatal blows left and right, and there was little his opponents could do about it.
We need to find a good chance to retreat! Rukas made up his mind and concentrated his fire elemental power. While Levi was preoccupied with other enemies, he channeled the energy into a sea of arrows as thick as his arm.
Then, he aimed the arrows at Levi’s vital organs. Swoosh! The fiery arrows flew across the sky, advancing menacingly on Levi. The air heated up to a boiling point, causing any nearby plants to wilt instantly and burn to a crisp.
Bam! Bam! Bam! Levi’s punches sent another five men flying. “A sneak attack?” he mumbled and smirked upon noticing Rukas’ arrows. Then, he reached out and caught the fiery arrows bare-handed.
Actually, Rukas had already retreated after launching his sea of fire arrows. He noticed Levi catching his arrows out of the corner of his eye and was floored. The scene defied everything he thought he knew about the fire element.
How could someone catch the fiery arrows I launched bare-handed? I channeled every bit of my elemental power into that attack! It would’ve melted steel! Rukas mumbled, “I-Is he even human?”
His heart sank as he immediately regretted his decision to challenge Levi. He could never have known that Levi’s body had been transformed by multiple holy ley lines and that Levi was already embarking on the process to develop a divine aura. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
Levi’s body was almost the living embodiment of the Iron Golem Technique. Meanwhile, the Holy Guardians army scattered in all directions after realizing their Holy Guardian had retreated.
“Hmph. Did you think I’d just let you go?” Levi threw a couple of the fire arrows at the escaping men. Some of them failed to dodge in time and were reduced to ashes.
Levi muttered to himself, “They’re not as strong as I thought!” He decided not to chase them down. After all, his goal was to advance his abilities with the dragon ley lines.
I need to get Wynona and the rest over here so they can improve their skills. We shouldn’t waste such excellent cultivation material. The Holy Guardians aren’t a real threat to me, but others may not be so lucky. They’ll eventually become a thorn in our side if we don’t improve everyone’s abilities.
Levi made up his mind and texted the core members of his base, urging them to hurry to where he was in batches.
He was not concerned about the Holy Guardians’ retaliation.
He had displayed his exceptional combat prowess earlier precisely to scare off the Holy Guardian and his men.
Meanwhile, in Yartran, the remaining council members of the ruling faction sat stony-faced in a silent conference room.
It was so quiet one could hear a pin drop.
A long moment later, Yartran’s leader said hoarsely, “I didn’t expect Levi’s cultivation to reach such terrifying heights. The Holy Guardians suffered a massive loss. Two Holy Guardians, the ones worshipping Hefaernus and Gaeus, were gravely injured. The situation is unbelievable.”
The other council members of Yartran could not help but shudder in fear.
The Holy Guardians fully deserved their affiliation with the divinity. Even at their nation’s peak, the Yartran people feared the Holy Guardians.
At some point, they even believed the Holy Guardians were capable of destroying Yartran if they wanted to.
To their shock, the men they revered so greatly had suffered a crippling defeat at Levi’s hands.
The Yartran council realized in hindsight how foolish they had been to mess with Levi in the past.
In the meantime, Rukas had made his way back to Hefaernus Holy Temple, named after the fire Orunthian, Hefaernus.
It was one of the twelve Holy Temples.q
