(9000) “Indeed, you’ve come yourself.”

Standing alone atop the peak, Ian looked down from his height upon the Mountain Tribes Chieftain before him: “Kode Jiamu, the first hero among the Mountain People to reach the Third Power Level—you’ve come here to witness my divine feat as the Dragon God’s Emissary awakening the Iron Dragon Nest, or do you wish to betray the faith of the Mountain People and prevent me from leading them back to glory?”

“I have never believed in any Dragon God’s Emissary.

If the Mountain People wish to return to glory, they must scrape away the rotting flesh and poison blood from their wounds, not rely on empty promises from a stranger of the White Folks.”

Facing the words of the young man before him, the chief with brown hair and beard responded gravely, unaware of why only Ian, who had just advanced to the Second Energy Level, was present, but inexplicably, he felt a sense of danger emanating from the other party, which incessantly alerted his hunter’s instinct.

As if…

it was the first time he had gone hunting before becoming a Sublimator, and found the tracks of a Sharp Claw Tiger at the roadside, the warning of danger that sprung from the depths of his soul.

But how could that be possible?

The other party was clearly only at the Second Energy Level; how could he exhibit the ability to make him feel fear and tension?

Therefore, Kode looked around at the rugged rocks and said in a heavy tone: “I know of your deeds; you never fight a battle you’re not sure of winning—where are the others lying in ambush?

Let them come out!”

“A good response, but the reality is not as you think—I only deal with tangible actions, striving to inspire the Mountain People, yet you are harming your own kin.”

Ian shook his head slightly: “As for the ambush…

you are at the Third Power Level, can’t you see it yet?”

“It’s just you and me here.

The only two who can decide the fate of the Mountain People’s future.”

“Upon this Holy Ground.”

Standing atop the Iron Dragon Nest, Kode was taken aback.

There were no ambushers here, nor any other traps or preparations?

Indeed.

He had sensed nothing, which is why Kode was perplexed…

He would rather believe that Ian possessed a piece of Spirit Energy Jewelry capable of concealing his presence to set an ambush than to accept that Ian actually came here alone, unarmed.

With the strength of the Second Energy Level…

Alone, confronting him?

No Armor Suit, no extra weapons, only two swords at his waist and an Alchemy belt.

What…

exactly is he planning to do?!

Has he gone mad?!

—But never mind that.

Kode’s expression cooled down: “You will regret this.”

At thousands of meters high, amidst ice rain and thunder, a chilling and solemn atmosphere spread.

The brown-haired Mountain Tribesman was tall and sturdy.

He carried two Hunting Knives at his waist and a longbow on his back.

Due to his confidence and in order to quicken his journey, Kode did not bring any additional weapons and did not wear the Armor Suit that he never used to part from.

For no Armor Suit could compare to the strength of the Heart-Light Shield, and no weapons could surpass the Heart Light Body of a Sublimator.

At this moment, Ian felt as if the Mountain Tribesman before his eyes suddenly grew taller, the storm became sparse, the cold wind turned warm, and an unusual life force started to spread, like a gigantic tree rooting before his eyes, shielding against the wind and rain and drawing strength from the earth.

“Is this the full power of the Third Energy Level?”

On top of the peak, Ian’s expression slightly moved.

To date, he had seen many at the Third Energy Level and even a good number of Fourth Energy Level beings, but apart from the Void Spawn and Viscount Awak, two Phantasms who relied on external items to possess the Third Energy Level power, he had never faced a true Third Energy Level adversary in person.

And now, he saw a gigantic tree’s Spirit Substance projection emerge over Kode’s body.

The roots of this ethereal tree have already taken hold in the peak of the Iron Dragon Nest, and the illusionary leaves rustled loudly in the storm, dramatically transforming the original cold and damp environment into one that was moist and warm.

Yet, this warmth did not signify comfort; instead, it gave the soul a feeling of being scorched and eroded by an overly dazzling sun.

The Bloodline Inheritance of the Jiamu Sect, the Spirit-Hosting Gigantic Tree of the Third Power Level, the ‘Purifying Spirit Wood’!

This is the power of the Third Energy Level: to forcibly change the surrounding Origin Quality and Spirit Energy Field with one’s own spirit and Heart Light Body, which can turn an icy cavern into a flaming hell, a scorching desert into a humid marsh.

And the Purifying Spirit Wood can naturally turn the land around it into a hunting ground gnawing away at the soul!

Boom!

With a sonic boom, as the air currents surged, Kode charged forward!

Since there were no traps and no assistants, just Ian alone, what did he have to fear?

His flesh covered by the Heart Light Body broke through the sound barrier, leaving a trail of sonic booms in his wake, as rocks shattered and rainwater splashed and evaporated where he passed.

A cloud of white mist like a huge hammer plowed a deep track across the earth, slamming down towards Ian!

Just one man, yet his momentum was like that of thousands of troops!

But Ian merely watched the scene unfolding before him.

In his eyes, a silver-green light flickered, clearly reflecting every change brought about by Kode’s Heart Light Body or the activation of the Origin Quality within his body—The Purifying Spirit Wood’s ability to absorb all external Origin Quality, even Life Essence, for its own use was the very essence of its ‘Purifying’ nature.

And as Kode approached within fifty meters of him, Ian raised his hand.

The hilt of the Heavy Abyss Iron Sword at his waist flew up, drawing an arc in midair into his hand; in a flash of light, a fine gold blade appeared out of thin air.

And it was this seemingly inconsequential action that acted like a signal—A mighty and unstoppable surge of Life Essence burst forth from his seemingly slender body, expanding outwards.
