Chapter 810: Chapter 810: He’s Pretentious, I Don’t Like Him

The Eight-Armed Arhat, hundreds of feet tall, floated in the air like a deity; majestic and radiant with golden light, it instinctively inspired awe and reverence in the hearts of those who beheld it.

Kash Lam’s entire body was engulfed in golden flames, the endless fire he flung about turned the entire sky into a sea of flames.

Seeing the Eight-Armed Arhat swinging various weapons down, Kash Lam remained composed and fearless.

The golden flames surged and instantly split into nine fire dragons composed of flames; eight attacked the weapons descending from the Eight-Armed Arhat, while one roared towards Bryant James.

"Nine Dragons Annihilation!"

"Goodness, his Lam Family’s Divine Flame Technique has reached this level?"

"Heavenly Dao’s Taoist Body against the Fire Spirit Body, this show is just too good."

The crowd burst into discussions as the battle in the sky grew fierce.

Kash Lam seemed like the very source of divine fire, with fire dragons continually splitting off and lunging toward Bryant James, an unending assault, while the Eight-Armed Arhat behind Bryant waved all manner of weapons, wreaking havoc.

The entire sky was filled with flames and golden light.

"Bang!"

After another intense collision, Kash Lam’s body fell from the sky and smashed heavily into the mountain, shattering a large swath of cliff.

The golden flames in the sky gradually dissipated, and Bryant James stood proudly upright, the formidable and towering Eight-Armed Arhat shimmering with golden light, its presence awe-inspiring.

Clearly, Bryant James had won.

Kash Lam burst forth from the shattered ground, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said cheerfully, "The power of a phenomenon, truly incredible. Okay, I concede. If we’re teaming up, you be the leader, I’m convinced."

Bryant James smiled and said, "Brother Lam’s Fire Spirit Body has truly opened my eyes today."

Kash Lam waved it off, "Let’s skip the formalities, no point in them. If I can’t beat you now, I’ll beat you later."

Kash Lam flew back to the White Jade Platform, turning to Lainey Dragon beside him, "Aren’t you going to give it a try?"

Lainey Dragon shook her head, "My strength is about the same as yours, and you couldn’t beat him, so I probably can’t either. I don’t want to embarrass myself. Moreover, forming a combined team to explore the True Dragon Secret Realm is essential. Since he has such strength, having him as the leader is acceptable."

Lainey Dragon paused, then turned to Kenzo Conley and Terry among others, "What about you guys? Aren’t you going to try?"

Kenzo Conley’s expression was serious; the might of the Eight-Armed Arhat clearly put him under great pressure. He shook his head, "I can’t beat him, but I won’t join his team either."

Kash Lam asked, "Why not?"

Kenzo Conley simply stated, "Because he’s too pretentious, I don’t like him."

Ty Baker smiled, "I agree with Brother Conley’s point of view."

The crowd voiced their opinions, some in agreement, others not, split into two factions at that moment.

Lainey Dragon then turned to Carson Flores, "Carson, what about you?"

Carson Flores smiled, "I’m not joining."

Lainey Dragon curiously asked, "From your tones just now, is there a disagreement between you guys?"

Carson Flores nodded, "Yes, in short, it’s mutual disdain, better not to group together, to avoid discomfort. Besides, with him as the leader, and me in the Golden Core Realm, that would be a death sentence."

Lainey Dragon nodded in understanding, "Then you plan to venture alone?"

Carson Flores calmly replied, "I’ve only been in the Barbarian Wilderness Realm for a year. Frankly speaking, I don’t even know what this True Dragon Secret Realm you speak of is, so I’ll find out more and make a decision later."

Lainey Dragon’s expression slightly changed, "You’re from the Mortal Realm?"

Carson Flores nodded, "Yes."

Kash Lam exclaimed, "You’ve been in the Barbarian Wilderness Realm for just one year, and you’ve already cultivated Sword Bone and reached the Golden Core Late Stage?"

Carson Flores nodded, "Pretty much."

Lainey Dragon and Kash Lam exchanged glances, each seeing the shock in each other’s eyes, and those around them also wore faces of disbelief.

Was Sword Bone that easy to cultivate?

Delaney Hunter had spent so much time and had not yet completed the refinement of a full body of Sword Bone, and Carson Flores had been here for how long and already achieved a minor accomplishment of Sword Bone?

Such talent was indeed terrifying!

No wonder Master Campbell took him as a disciple. It seems a monster is about to emerge from Nutwood Heavenly Cave again.

Lainey Dragon curiously asked, "Can you tell me how old you are?"

"Twenty-eight years old."

Since prowess was paramount in the Barbarian Wilderness Realm and age was inconsequential, Carson Flores did not conceal this.

Kash Lam also couldn’t help asking, "What was your strength when you entered the Barbarian Wilderness Realm?"

"Golden Core Initial Stage."

The surrounding crowd was once again astonished. They might not have visited the Mortal Realm, but they were aware of its conditions—Spiritual Energy was extremely scarce, making cultivation exceedingly difficult and advancement to Golden Core all but impossible. Yet, Carson Flores had managed to advance to Golden Core in the sparsely temporal Mortal Realm!

From Golden Core Initial Stage to Golden Core Late Stage in one year in the Barbarian Wilderness Realm, not only that, but he had also cultivated Sword Bone and his strength was beyond the Mid-Nascent Soul stage. This speed, this talent, was frightening.

If he had grown up in the Spirit-energy-rich Barbarian Wilderness Realm with all kinds of elixirs to support him, what level would he have reached by today?

Would he still be at the Golden Core Late Stage, would he still be weaker than the present company?

If that were so, he would probably have already achieved Sword Bone Great Achievement and reached the Divinity Transformation Realm by now. How would he be compared to Bryant James then?
