Chapter456: The Might of a Single Fist, You Are Too Weak
“I trust your grandpa!!!” Until this moment, Lucifer Carter still believed that the “Lord Snow” before him was, like himself and the other five old monks, a practitioner approaching the Bright Realm. Therefore, facing an opponent of the same level, as the commander of the three armies of the North Kingdom, he naturally couldn’t retreat!
So, Lucifer Carter roared and cursed, and the dark energy and Bright Energy within him erupted simultaneously!
Boom! With Lucifer Carter at the center, accompanied by a burst of explosive sound, a fierce wind rose around, sand flew up from under his feet. Lucifer Carter stared at Sean who was rushing towards him, raised his sword, and slashed directly at Sean!
In the next instant, an illusory blade formed by Bright Energy appeared out of thin air, detached from the war blade, whistling towards Sean!
However, it was too illusory! Lucifer Carter, after all, was only a practitioner close to the Bright Realm. The Bright Energy condensed in his core was very limited. Even in a situation where he exerted all his strength, the power he could unleash with his sword shadow was greatly inferior to that of a real Bright Realm practitioner. Especially under the already dark night sky, that blade shadow was like a ghost. If one didn’t look closely, it was barely visible!
For an ordinary Complete Stage practitioner, this level of illusory blade shadow would be fatal. However, for someone like Sean, a true Bright Realm practitioner, and a remarkable figure even among those in Consolidation, it was completely ineffective!
In fact, Sean disdained it, not even bothering to defend against it!
As a result, what followed was a scene that left Lucifer Carter trembling. After the slash, Lucifer Carter immediately looked at Sean, wanting to see how Sean would resist his all-out attack. Under his gaze, Sean seemed indifferent, as if he hadn’t noticed the attack through space, as if he hadn’t seen the illusory blade shadow at all. Consequently, Sean’s speed didn’t diminish at all. He just charged forward, completely disregarding any intention of defending himself!
“Seeking death!!!” Lucifer Carter cursed through gritted teeth. Despite this failed strike, he still had confidence in his next move!
Swoosh! Just as Lucifer Carter cursed, the illusory blade shadow struck Sean directly, or more accurately, it struck the protective energy surrounding Sean’s body, emitting a grating sound akin to blades clashing!
Then, the blade shadow dissipated, leaving Sean unscathed. It was as if… the menacing illusory blade shadow was useless. It was like a paper tiger that, upon encountering the protective energy around Sean’s body, was blown away as if it were nothing!
“This! This… How… how is this possible!!!” Lucifer Carter’s pupils constricted, his heart shuddered, and cold sweat broke out in his hands gripping the sword. He couldn’t believe it: “How is this possible!!!”
Indeed! How could this be possible! Although Lucifer Carter was not a true Bright Realm practitioner, the North Kingdom had two genuine Bright Realm practitioners: Albert Sitwell, the lord of the North Kingdom, and Lord North. Thanks to his illustrious feats, he had encountered Albert Sitwell and had the honor of exchanging blows with Lord North. He had personally experienced how formidable a true Bright Realm practitioner could be!RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
Therefore, Lucifer Carter was well aware that the slash he just executed could only be disregarded by a true Bright Realm practitioner. Only a true Bright Realm practitioner like Sean could easily neutralize the illusory blade shadow with just the protective energy!
“Is this… your true strength?” Having missed his first strike, Lucifer Carter didn’t have the chance to launch a second one. With a disdainful snort, Sean appeared before Lucifer Carter, saying, “It seems your bounty is not going to be honored!”
With that, a punch thundered towards Lucifer Carter!
Feeling the overwhelmingly powerful aura emanating from Sean at close range, Lucifer Carter was now a hundred percent certain that, as he had suspected and feared, “Lord Snow,” this despicable traitor, had not only betrayed the North Kingdom and the Hall of Jade but had actually entered the ranks of the Bright Realm!
Where would he find the courage to resist?
Consequently, without needing to think, almost in the same instant that Sean appeared before him, he immediately flashed back, simultaneously pushing the dark energy and the Bright Energy in his core to the extreme. He didn’t attack; instead, he focused entirely on defense!
However, even so, when Sean’s punch came crashing down, it was as if a mountain was toppling down. In the face of Sean’s punch, Lucifer Carter’s all-out defense seemed as feeble as a fragile paper lantern, utterly vulnerable!
Bang! Without any surprise or suspense, Sean’s punch sent Lucifer Carter flying, as if he were an arrowshot from a bow, hurtling much faster than he could have fled on his own!
Puff! Blood sprayed out, and he didn’t even know how many ribs he had broken. The hundreds of North Kingdom dark energy soldiers standing behind Lucifer Carter couldn’t evade in time and were knocked down in a large swath!
Immediately, chaos erupted! Everyone was shocked by Sean’s single punch!
Bright Realm! With just one punch, even a fool could see that the “Lord Snow” before them was not just close to the Bright Realm, but a genuine Bright Realm practitioner!
Tens of thousands of North Kingdom troops looked at each other in astonishment, their panic-stricken faces filled with disbelief and awe!
After all, for ordinary people, Bright Realm practitioners were akin to kings, symbols of imperial power. They harbored an innate fear and reverence for Bright Realm practitioners that stemmed from the depths of their souls!
“General Carter!”
“General Carter!”
“General Carter!”
Lucifer Carter was hurled more than twenty meters by Sean’s punch. Amid the panic of the hundreds of North Kingdom dark energy soldiers, many rushed over to examine Lucifer Carter’s injuries!
Severely wounded, but not dead on the spot!
“You… How… how did you…” Supported by several soldiers, Lucifer Carter sat up. His internal organs were in turmoil, and excruciating pain made him grit his teeth. Blood spurted out like water from a tap, but he held back, not letting out a scream. Instead, he panted heavily, staring at “Lord Snow” opposite him, and asked, “Bright Realm! You… you actually made it to the Bright Realm!!!”
“This! Is this your reason for betraying the North Kingdom and the Hall of Jade?” Indeed! Ask any practitioner in the world, after enduring a lifetime of hardships and struggles, who wouldn’t want to become a legendary Bright Realm practitioner?
If there was an opportunity to enter the Bright Realm, not to mention Lord Snow, even Lucifer Carter, who had fought for the North Kingdom all his life, would probably not be able to resist such temptation!
“You can go and die!” Surprisingly, a single punch didn’t kill Lucifer Carter on the spot, which was somewhat unexpected for Sean. He didn’t answer Lucifer Carter’s question but strode toward him!
“Quick! Stop him! Stop him!!!” Initially, Lucifer Carter had intended to stall for time, waiting for the arrival of Lord North. However, it seemed that Sean wasn’t willing to give him that chance. Consequently, he was forced to retreat frantically, supported by several North Kingdom dark energy soldiers. At the same time, he directed the remaining hundreds of North Kingdom dark energy soldiers to block the space between him and Sean, attempting to buy precious time using the lives of these soldiers!
