At the edge of life and death, Eric's potential had been fully stimulated. In an instant, Eric had already arrived at the edge of the Prefecture.

In the next moment, a powerful wind came from behind him. A middle-aged man wearing fine armor with an imposing appearance was obviously the leader of the guards. His body was like a sharp arrow as he rushed towards Eric at the same time.

Eric's pupils shrank. He could already feel the strength of the middle-aged man. The Spirit Energy fluctuation contained in the man's body was definitely not any weaker than his.

A dark green light flashed. The middle-aged man spread his five fingers and stomped on the ground. The Spirit Energy spread out and covered Eric like a huge net.

If he was entangled by the middle-aged man, he would definitely be surrounded.

Eric clenched his teeth. He knew that he only had one chance to attack. In the dark night, his arm moved, and a shocking force burst out from under his black robe. He threw out a punch.

"Boom!"

In mid-air, Eric's fist collided with the middle-aged man's fist. However, in the next moment, a blood mist spread out in the air, and the middle-aged man's fist was shattered!

"Ahh!"

A painful howl was emitted from the middle-aged man's mouth. His face was distorted, and his body was forced backward. This kind of pain was unbearable even for a strong man.

In the next moment, the expressions of all the surrounding guards changed. The leader of the guards was defeated by a single punch. This was a huge blow to the others.

Under the shocked expressions of the crowd, Eric's body moved. He took a step into the air and disappeared into the darkness at the same time.

Witnessing Eric rushing out at high speed, all of the guard's heart was shaken. At the next moment, someone shouted.

"Fire the arrows!"

At the same time, countless air-piercing sounds were shot out from behind him. The shadows of the arrows pierced through the sky, and the darkness was extremely dense. Together with Eric's figure, they disappeared into the darkness.

"The City Lord is really dead!"

Someone let out a howl among the crowd. When they looked into the room, they saw Noman's corpse. All of them were dumbstruck. They knew that Blue Sky City's sky was going to change!

Under the cover of the night, a figure quietly arrived at an inn. Eric wore a black robe and walked into the room. After making sure that no one had noticed him, he let out a heavy breath.

It was indeed thrilling to come out of the Prefecture by himself. If Eric knew that he had been a little slower, he would have fallen into a tight encirclement.

"This is really thrilling!"

Eric's mouth cracked open. After taking off his black robe, blood spurted out from his body. Two sharp arrows had already pierced into Eric's bones. In such a dense barrage of arrows, no matter how fast Eric was, he was still hit by two arrows.

Eric clenched his teeth and pulled out the arrow. Immediately, he swallowed a pill to recover his energy. An unknown amount of time passed before Eric finally opened his eyes.

Eric opened his eyes and was about to go and wash when his expression suddenly changed. The Spirit Energy in his body emitted a powerful fluctuation. In an instant, his blood energy spread throughout his body. Eric's eyes flashed and he immediately sat on the small bed.

At this moment, the Spirit Energy in his body was circulating continuously. It was the sign of a breakthrough!

When he thought of this, Eric couldn't help but feel excited in his heart. He didn't expect to experience a life-and-death experience. The strong stimulation actually allowed Eric's strength to break through.

Sitting cross-legged, Eric circulated Spirit Energy according to his cultivation technique.

In the blink of an eye, Eric circulated his cultivation technique with all his might. All the muscles in his body bulged up, and the Spirit Energy in his body kept surging like a river. Two hours, four hours... Finally, all the Spirit Energy in Eric's body were used up, and they all converged into one point inside his Dantian.

Eric's entire body trembled. Countless streams of Spirit Energies in his body had merged into one. Suddenly, it was as if a huge door had been opened in his head. All the Spirit Energies in his body were boiling, and a mysterious symbol had formed in the center of his body!

This symbol was extremely strange. It was formed by all the spirit energy in Eric's body. In an instant, Eric's blood and energy spread out. He let out a low roar, and his dantian suddenly expanded by about three times.

Martial King Stage Level 9.

After a few breaths of time, Eric had broken through and absorbed the Spirit Energy from his surroundings. His strength erupted, and his muscles became extremely defined. He had made another breakthrough.

Now, Eric just need to move one step further and he could become a Martial Emperor, but he couldn't be happy about it. He carefully looked at the symbol inside his dantian.

Eric's heart stirred. He carefully probed but he did not find any difference in this runic symbol. Only by continuing to cultivate in the future would he be able to see the difference.

Eric thought in his heart. He knew that cultivating the mysterious cultivation technique is not easy. Moreover, from the symbol, he could feel a kind of Will that seemed to be harmful to him.

Eric sighed in his heart. For the time being, he could not do anything.

After that, he stood up and looked out the window. The moonlight was like water, but blood was flowing out of the hot and tightly guarded place.

He looked at the distant sky and muttered: "Profound Star Sect... This is where Alex is cultivating currently. In at most fifteen days, I'll be there!"

"Aunty, don't worry. I will definitely take care of my little cousin!"

_Heavenly Ghost Peak_

Just when everyone was trapped in illusion, Elder Valerio raised his hand and snapped his fingers.

"Bo!"

The crowd only felt the world in front of them swaying before shattering like glass. In the next moment, everything returned to normal.

"This is.."

The six experts of the Black Devil Cult and Saint Devil Sect trembled in shock!

Other than them, the two people of Ten Thousand Beast Mountain also groaned in pain and stood up.

"What's going on? Didn't I get killed by Elder Valerio?" One of them straightened up and touched his chest. In the illusion, Elder Valerio pierced his sword in his chest, that's why he was looking for the wound.

At this time, one of the three people from the Black Devil Cult walked out and bowed toward Elder Valerio and said: "Everyone says that Elder Valerio is extremely powerful. I always thought that the rumors were exaggerated and are not something to be trusted."

"I didn't expect Elder Valerio's illusion technique to be able to easily trap Martial Emperors like us. I'm impressed!"

There was a moment of silence. And then, with a loud bang, the pot exploded!

Everyone reacted. They came back to their senses.

Everything that had happened before was an illusion!

"Too strong, too strange!" The thousands of people present were caught in an illusion without them knowing. How terrifying must be Elder Valerio's strength to be able to do something like this?"

"This illusion technique is actually able to cause us to believe that we have already died. This is even more frightening than that finger attack of Elder Valerio!"

"Yes, I never thought that we would unknowingly fall into an illusion. It's too scary!"

People were shocked by Elder Valerio's illusion technique and started discussing it.

Before this, even though the majority of people knew that Elder Valerio was too powerful, they only believed a part of the legends about him.

But from the looks of it, those legends were not exaggerated at all.

On the contrary, it was far from being enough to describe Elder Valerio's terror. This fellow seemed to be standing apart from the world.

However, the moment he made his move, it shocked the entire audience!

While people were lamenting, the person who was of Ten Thousand Beast Mountain respectfully saluted Elder Valerio and said, "I was too arrogant and conceited. I thank you for not killing us, and I'm sorry about my previous ignorance. Please forgive me. No, please forgive us!"

The other person of the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain also bowed to receive Elder Valerio's forgiveness.

Elder Valerio nodded slightly and replied, "Then, today's matter.."

Black Devil Cult, Saint Devil Sect, and the two people of Ten Thousand Beast Mountain all looked at each other.

Then one of the people of Saint Devil Sect said in a clear voice: "Since Elder Valerio, you want us to spare these people of Eight second-rate forces, then we will do as you want. We will also break off our relationship with the Rasen Family. There is no need to continue this blood sacrifice. We will let go of all the second-rate forces we have captured."
