This time Davion was very cautious. He was ready to attack if something came out of the body. So, he was looking at the body very keenly.

After a few seconds, Hank lost his breath. But this time he managed to get a lot of experience points.

"How could it be so easy?" He was very confused. The previous time, after he killed Edgar, something came out of his body and he didn't get any experience points as a result. It was very troublesome.

"I had guessed that it might be a soul as written in those novels. But it looks like that's not the case. If it was a soul, then it would not have looked like a devil. It might be something else."

"That might be the reason Edgar managed to reach the Golden Core State in just 100 years. Is he a devil? But if he was then why did he look like a human?" He was perplexed.

"It looks like I can only get those answers from the Sect Master of the Blood Saber Sect." While he was thinking, he felt violent spiritual energy flowing throughout his body. It started to temper his whole body and like the previous time black smelly substance started to come out of his skin. But this time, the process only lasted for a minute.

"This.."

He felt a strong power churning inside his body. "This never happened before when I leveled up in the past. But why now?"

He channeled his spiritual energy in his fingers and it slowly became silver. Seeing this he understood what might have happened.

"It looks like a qualitative change. My foundation, the spiritual energy has evolved after leveling up to 20. Not only that, the Body Tempering Art that I had learned also depends on it."

"So, when my spiritual energy evolved, the Body Tempering Art should have used this energy as a fuel to improve my body once again."

"Sheesh..."

He sucked in a cold breath. "Damn, even a normal Body Tempering Art is so powerful in my hands. This golden finger.."

He didn't even know what to say about it. "If I fought with those elders now, then I am pretty sure I could crush them in a few seconds."

He then looked over and found that there was no one here. "It looks like they ran away," he sighed.

"Let's forget about it. I should check how strong my dark energy has become now."

He then infused his dark energy into the blade which was inside the body of Hank. The blade slowly became dark and strong coercion was released from it. The body was immediately decomposed in a few seconds and only a space ring was left there. Not only that, even the vitality of the surroundings, a few meters away from it, was being affected.

He then stopped it and took back his blade. "This is too strong, isn't it?" historical

It had taken a lot of time to destroy the body of a Golden Core cultivator previously but now it only took a few seconds.

"What should I do now?" He picked up the space ring and pondered.

Suddenly he slapped his face, "How could I forget to check my Mind-Eye technique? The range might have been enlarged or it might even bring me some surprises."

When he used his Mind-Eye, he was shocked because he found that the range had increased by at least 100 meters. But this was not the thing that surprised him the most. Rather he felt a familiar breath of two people near him.

"These breaths should be of the elders. Even though they are not in the range of my Mind-Eye, I can still feel their breath. It means that they passed from here not long ago."

"Haha, it has also evolved," Davion was full of smiles.

"I should track them now. I can't let them escape from here."

He was about to rush when he suddenly felt his robes sticky and uncomfortable.

"Damn, I forgot about the impurities I released from my body just ago. There is no water around here, so I can only do this."

He used his spiritual energy to cleanse it and changed his robes. After making sure everything was good, he left in a hurry.

***

Far away, the two elders were running away when suddenly one of them exclaimed.

"Shit! We forgot about Edgar. Where is he?"

"Yeah, he was near us during the battle. But he got injured and went somewhere to recover."

"But we heard him calling us out."

"Did he fall into some kind of trouble?"

"Don't tell me that the masked man already found him?"

Thinking about this, they felt chills down their spines. If something happened to Edgar, then they would surely be finished when they reached back to the sect. As the personal disciple of the Sect Master, he was very dotted by him.

"So, what should we do?"

"He might have even gone to the direction of Lilium City where the disciples were."

"Ok, let's go there and try to look. We should also bring back our disciples."

"Yeah, we should go there stealthily and be wary of that masked man."
