Chapter 2583: Chapter 2581: Driving the Beasts

"I could smell your Divine Soul from afar, how do you like this gift today?"

"Kole Morton’s dog!"

Ethan Smith’s eyes immediately turned cold.

He slowly accelerated, charging towards Asher Evans.

According to Asher Evans, the Divine Soul Holy Power he had killed should be enhancing his nose, thus his nose was extremely sensitive, even able to detect Ethan’s position.

This also explains why there were thirty Thunder-leopards surrounding him.

However, Ethan has not yet discovered how Asher Evans manages to control these Thunder-leopards.

Ethan’s gaze was fixed on Asher Evans, if his strengthening was all focused on his sense of smell.

Then Asher Evans’s combat ability would definitely not be stronger than Ethan’s, and the fact that Asher appeared at some distance from him proves this.

This is a physical combat reaction, like Ghost Light and Demon Flame, two Demon Cultivators who strengthen the body.

Seeing Ethan’s presence, they would instantly surround him, which is a completely different combat reaction.

Da-da-da-da-da!

The surroundings were deathly silent, with only the crisp sound of Ethan’s footfalls on the slightly loose ground echoing.

Asher Evans did not expect Ethan to charge at him so decisively; a fleeting moment of panic passed over his face.

But he quickly calmed down, a trace of ferocity flashing across his face.

Nine Heavens Condensing Pupil!

When Ethan was a hundred meters away from Asher Evans, he felt a slight tremor from the ground.

He almost instinctively activated the Nine Heavens Condensing Pupil.

A massive shadow of a Black Bear had somehow slipped out from the surroundings.

The Black Bear’s speed was even faster than the Thunder-leopard, but judging by its powerful body, one swipe could tear apart Ethan’s current form.

"Die! This Black Bear has devoured three powerful outsiders of the Mysterious Sword Sect, let’s see how you handle it."

Asher Evans sneered with a sinister smile.

"No, it’s way too fast!"

Ethan stared intently at the rapidly approaching Black Bear.

At the moment the sharp claw was about to strike him, the muscles in Ethan’s legs suddenly transformed, and the Divine Power he gained from the village chief was rapidly infused into his legs without hesitation.

He stomped fiercely, his speed suddenly increasing by twofold.

This speed difference caused the Black Bear’s swipe to miss, its massive frame slamming onto the ground, uttering a thunderous roar.

It accelerated once more, its failed attack seemingly enraging it.

Bam!

The Black Bear’s powerful hind legs kicked powerfully, its huge body charging towards Ethan.

Ethan only felt an irresistible force crash into his back.

The impact sent a sweet taste to Ethan’s throat, and the full-force collision broke numerous bones, sending him flying uncontrollably.

"Does the strength of this Bear King seem acceptable?"

Watching Ethan fall at his feet, Asher Evans grinned sinisterly.

At this moment, Ethan’s aura had weakened significantly due to the collision; even a Thunder-leopard could potentially take his life.

Blood uncontrollably seeped from his wounds, Ethan felt his Divine Soul gradually becoming weaker.

"Little brat! Let’s see if you can laugh now!"

Asher Evans’s face contorted, he seemed already envisioning Ethan squashed by the Black Bear.

But the next second, his smile abruptly froze.

The Bear King suddenly turned away from Ethan, its massive claw crushing Asher’s head into his neck, before starting to devour the body on the ground.

Soon, the Bear King completely swallowed the corpse on the ground into its stomach,

Asher Evans never discovered why the Black Bear King turned to attack him.

The fierce bear eyes glanced at Ethan, a trace of dread emerged in its pupils, then it turned and fled.

Ethan held a bag emanating a foul odor, which he had cut from around Asher Evans’s waist.

"I suspected it right; the Evans Family specializes in gu poison, deeply understands the habits of these animals. Even here in the Holy Kingdom, it can still be useful. This bag probably contains the feces of a stronger mystical creature, that’s why the Black Bear hesitated to attack me."

Ethan struggled to move his body slightly.

If it weren’t for his Nine Heavens Condensing Pupil spotting the bag on Asher’s body, and if he hadn’t gambled correctly with his final moments, he might not have survived Asher Evans’s trap.

Ethan found a piece of cloth, tightly binding the muscles around the wound.

To slow the bleeding, then picked up a piece of firewood.

Using the burning flames to sear his chest, he finally stopped the bleeding wound.

This pain was nothing to Ethan, once the wicked talk of the wound was contained, the drainage of Soul Holy Power gradually alleviated.

"It seems in this realm, mastering certain patterns is the key to enhancing power."

Like Asher Evans controlling thirty Thunder-leopards and one Black Bear King this time.

He likely relied on a combination of inducement and the bag of feces, as Asher said he enhanced his sense of smell.

Within three days, he acquired such strength that even if his Soul Holy Power doubled, if he hadn’t discovered the Black Dragon attack-evading feces, he might not have escaped the Bear King’s assault.

Ethan subtly grasped something; the primal living beings of the Holy Kingdom seem to be a force they can utilize, offering assistance to outsiders.

With the village chief’s displayed abilities, he can directly communicate with Beast Spirits.

His techniques aren’t something outsiders can resist, but he’s restricted by certain powers, unable to act against them.

"Thanks for saving our lives again, brother."

Seeing the battle gradually quiet down, Maxwell and the old man returned to the clearing.

"Brother, let me dress your wound, Grandpa says infected wounds are hard to heal."

Maxwell approached with his round little head.

"It’s alright, I used fire, it won’t get infected." Ethan smiled, rubbing his little head.

"Brother, does it hurt? Does brother have someone he cares about, which is why you fight so hard?"

Maxwell asked curiously.

Ethan jolted, thinking of Emily, of Ella Jenkins, the dean, the peak master.

So many people, some of whom have vanished completely.

Some arrived in the Holy Kingdom, fate unknown.

"Yes, only by becoming stronger can I protect those I care about."

For some reason, Ethan’s eyes reddened a bit.

He’s been trying hard, but the world seems never in short supply of geniuses, and there aren’t always tales of defeating thousands.

Including the battle between Path Profound Morning Frost Saint and Demon Path Saint Purple Sun Saint, he ultimately couldn’t turn the tide.
