Chapter 1024 - 1024 522 No one can stop me (4000)

Chapter 1024: 522 No one can stop me (4000) Chapter 1024: 522 No one can stop me (4000) Ancient Ruins, one of the levels, Paradise.

This was a vast cavity underground, extraordinarily spacious. Various splendid buildings stood tall, with white stone roads laid on the ground, smooth and translucent like fine jade. Colorful ribbons connected to the ends of different ornamental trees, with bronze bells hanging down, tinkling in the wind.

Surrounding the group of buildings were neatly arranged meadows, an artificial lake with rippling blue waves, gentle slopes caressed by the breeze, and hillsides covered with flowers in shades of white and pink. Figures dressed in bright and exquisite clothes frolicked amidst this beautiful scenery, some raising glasses to drink, others singing out loud. There were also those sitting by the lake, chatting with friends while calmly waiting for fish to bite. From afar, it was indeed a vision of paradise that one could yearn for.

Among all the people, only one figure stood out in stark contrast.

He was dressed in a black cloak, with a deep, cold aura. He kept his distance from the merry crowd, leaning against the back of a large tree, quietly observing from the sidelines.

The man’s arms were crossed, revealing his pale right hand. On his middle finger, he conspicuously wore a Supreme Ring, emanating a lush plant-like green.

Furthermore, this shade of green was deeper and richer than any Wood Spirit that the organization of Ripple masters had ever seen before, even to the point of appearing nearly black.

Wood Spirit, the leader of the first generation of the organization of Ripple masters.

He stood in the shadow of the trees, seemingly reluctant to touch the brilliant white light around him. Yes, brilliant white light, not sunlight.

Wood Spirit slowly lifted his head and, through the gaps in the tree canopy, saw the sky of this vast cavity. It was filled with countless pale roots, undulating like strands of hair, or resembling a mass of slender poisonous snakes. The plant’s roots system was extensive, splitting and branching out in every direction. It looked akin to the human nervous system.

Light shone in patches of colorful splendor from the layered network of roots. Hazy and misty, as if fine rain drizzled down toward the earth. When the lights of various colors converged and landed, they formed white light that seemed no different from sunlight.

At least, if one didn’t look up, there was no difference to be felt.

After gazing for a while, Wood Spirit withdrew his sight. He turned his head for a glance at the distant meadow and lakeside. Those at the Spiritual Level, who laughed with feigned smiles, issued laughter, and repeated the same actions they had done half an hour earlier, were like puppets. The whole person remained silent, and even a hint of mockery flashed in the depths of his eyes.

It was not only mockery towards those people but also towards himself.

“This is the price of enjoying paradise and eternal life…”

“No advantage comes without a cost.”

Rustle rustle…

The large tree behind Wood Spirit shook violently, trembling fiercely. At a height of two meters, the thick bark split apart, suddenly revealing a face.

A huge face twisted and intertwined by pale roots.

“Those invaders who have ascended to Immortal Island have now killed the core forces of the Ice Spirits and Ripple masters of this generation…” The pale face suddenly spoke, its voice hissing, mixed with the sound of an electric current, “They are now heading towards the Relic, heading towards the direction of Paradise…”

“Hmm!?”

Wood Spirit’s usually half-closed eyes suddenly snapped open, a look of shock flashing across them, “How is that possible? Immortal Island is home turf combat for Ripple masters. Didn’t you just recently summon back the most elite Ripple masters and Ripple Masters from all over the world? And directed the Mother Tree to give birth to more Supreme Rings… How could they all be wiped out in one fell swoop?”

Three Supreme Rings, plus the one that followed and the original Bing Ling. Five at the Spiritual Level! Back when Wood Spirit led the organization of Ripple masters to its peak period, there were only three at the Spiritual Level. Now with five at the Spiritual Level, they were still swept away by those mysterious invaders?

In the face of Wood Spirit’s doubt, the pale face was unusually silent.

After a pause, it said, “Among the invaders, there is a very dangerous person from the Hong Li Empire’s Secret Martial Arts World, and I need something on him. His team has just entered the Relic, and I need you to take those at the Spiritual Level from Paradise up to the higher levels to intercept them.”

“It’s best to kill them, and help me get that bone tree back…”

Wood Spirit quietly looked at the pale face for a moment, “Their strength.”

“More than seventy fighters, including some of the top Fighter level. Most of the top Knight Rank Eerie Night Guests from Black Rain Villa, including two of the four strongest Markers at this stage…” the pale face recounted.

“And then? What about that very dangerous person you mentioned?”

Wood Spirit rubbed the green ring on his middle finger.

“An hour ago, he just killed four Ultimate Fighters acting together. Then he also killed one of the Ice Spirits that my will had descended upon; at that time, the Ice Spirit wore five Supreme Rings simultaneously…”

The pale face hesitated slightly in its speech.

“He is nearly at the level of Saint Fist…”

“Saint Fist…” Wood Spirit murmured the term under his breath, feeling an inexplicable sense of grandeur and majesty. He knew what Saint Fist represented; it was the title used within the Secret Martial Arts World. Wood Spirit, being the only entity in Paradise that could semi-autonomously move, had traveled to many places in the world over a thousand years and had gradually learned about the Secret Martial Arts World and its martial artists.

Saint Fist was the ultimate realm that Secret Martial Artists revered and aspired to reach!
