CHAPTER 497 THE SURRENDER (PART ONE)
"Is the World Upgrade almost done?" asked the purple-armored martial artist who had a mixed emotion
of surprise and worries cast on his pale face.
"Eddy, since you have already activated the World Upgrade once, I don't want to dwell on that matter
any longer. Let's move on and think about what our next move should be. What I would require you to
do is very simple. You just need to go back with me and explain to Lord Donald about your affairs. You
have my word that he won't blame you that much," the purple-armored martial artist, who was the
leader of the law enforcers advised Eddy. He was determined to persuade Eddy in any way possible so
as not to create further havoc to the already unpleasant mess he had created.
"Haha, do you think I am an idiot? What makes you think that I will go with you willingly? Especially
now that my World Upgrade is about to succeed? The moment I have finished the process, with the
flick of my fingers, I can quickly seal the gate of the space passage. I will be the dominator of this
Bottom Spiritual World, and I can assimilate as many souls as I please. Your lord is no longer a match
for me in strength. I won't waste my time and energy talking to that old bastard anymore."
Then came Eddy's satirical and haunting voice along with his diabolical laughter. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
"Damn it!"
the purple-armored martial artist growled in a fury. This time, panic had crept through him, and he was
in a desperate situation to put Eddy's plan to an end.
"You gave me no choice but to end your life. You are useless to us if you don't follow our rules!" he
roared and motioned to the other grand warriors to launch an attack to the unyielding warrior.
Under his command, the six-star grand warriors present lifted their spears and charged towards Eddy
all at once.
The united force of the grand warriors was powerful and devastating. They steadily pressed on and
weakened Eddy's power. Panting heavily with exhaustion, Eddy stumbled backward as the holy
emperor defense of his body gradually ran out.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Countless mighty blows of golden spears fell upon Eddy, each of which was aimed directly at killing
him.
'It seems that the power of these six-star grand warriors should not be overlooked. But, are they strong
enough to harm my tough and power-protected body?'
Thinking about that, amidst the spears that rained on him, Eddy waved his hands. Many golden runes
emanated from his hands, and then in the next second, they all transformed into numerous long,
pointed, and fine-edged spears. At their release, Eddy's rune-powered spears began colliding fiercely
with the grand warriors' spears and shattering them into useless burned twigs.
"Foolish! Do you think you can withstand my blow with your little trick?" the purple-armored martial
artist scoffed with a snort and sped towards Eddy like a howling wind. A strong aura rose and circled
him as he ran. At the onset, he seemed powerful and jaw-dropping that his power had suppressed
everything in this land.
Almost in a flash, the purple-armored martial artist had reached Eddy. Holding firmly on the hilt of his
spear, the martial artist broke through Eddy's defense line of rule power. The moment he breached
through, the leader managed to stab Eddy's body with his spear.
Although Eddy's body was as sturdy as a boulder, the purple-armored martial artist had still managed
to bear countless holes in his body. The original scarlet color of Eddy's body darkened as blood started
to gush out of the wounds that were scattered all over him.
"Very interesting! I am quite impressed that you can pierce through my holy body. You surely are one of
the best seven-star grand warriors in the world," Eddy complimented the leader of the law enforcers.
Horrendous and severe as the wounds looked, they were not deathly enough to endanger Eddy's life.
Thus, Eddy chose to ignore them and put one of his mighty skills into action.
"Soul Thorn!" Eddy roared as he concentrated all his strength in aiming at the leader.
A blast of dark green soul attack spurted out of Eddy's body and lurched straight towards the martial
artist's head.
Although already prepared, the purple-armored martial artist did not manage to fend off the soul attack
completely. The force of the soul attack was too tart and prevailing for any seven-star grand warrior to
withstand.
In a split second, the purple-armored martial artist felt a sudden sting in his soul. "Now, have a taste of
my spear!" With a shuddering howl, Eddy lifted his rune-powered spear and flung it at the law
enforcers. A shadow of oppression and disquiet fell upon the warriors—fear was visible on their faces.
Although they had been through so many battles and experienced so many different circumstances in
combat, Eddy's formidable power still caught them by surprise.
Then, as Eddy shifted his gaze upon their leader, with a dull thud, a rune-powered spear made its way
swiftly into the purple-armored martial artist's chest.
A big hole appeared in his chest. The wound could have been deadly enough to kill him if he hadn't
had the body of a strong warrior.
"You son of a bitch! I will stain my name if I could not kill you today!" the purple-armored martial artist
thundered.
Like Eddy, the leader was not a one who would be harmed so quickly by such attacks. The big hole in
his chest had only made him insulted and frustrated. A flame of anger flared up dangerously in his eyes
as he was determined to get even—or best kill Eddy.
"Invincible Warfare Domain!" the purple-armored martial artist roared.
Instantly, he was crowned with a blaze of dazzling light as his belligerence streamed out of his body.
Not wanting to bother with Eddy any longer, the purple-armored martial artist demonstrated his most
powerful skill.
The domain skill was known as an inherent attack means of martial arts grand warriors to end the
enemy's life. As a seven-star grand warrior, the purple-armored leader could be considered as
invincible and matchless in his own domain, unless he was facing an enemy at the level of the Holy
Realm.
"Wow, you scared the hell out of me. I am tired of playing with you boys. Now, get the hell out of my
way!" Eddy yelled in response to the purple-armored martial artist's incoming attack.
Although scoffing at the purple-armored martial artist, under the jest, Eddy personally felt the
suppression of the Invincible Warfare Domain. Upon realizing that he would soon be defeated and
swallowed by the skill, Eddy activated his legendary martial arts skill without a second thought. He felt
that the earlier he had sealed the gate of the space passage, the higher the chances of saving his life
would be.
