“Uhm…” Everyone froze.
Donovan’s actions were quite embarrassing. He was drenched in blood, his nose was crooked, and two of his front teeth were also knocked out. He looked terrible as if his image of being the first prodigy to emerge in ten thousand years was no more.
Even the members of the Plenilune sect gasped in shock.
‘What happened back there?’
‘Was that cruel man injured that badly?’
Just then, a figure slowly walked out of the sanctuary. It was Frostine. Even though she had only been away for a few days, she looked like a completely different person. Her entire body was radiating with divine glow, her beauty even more ethereal and her figure fitter than before.
She exited through the door. Behind her was a vague image of a Nine-Tail, following her closely behind. Her fiery red eyes looked down on everyone. Frostine was, in fact, the one who kicked Donovan out. Her powers exceeded him.
Before she received the legacy, her cultivation level was merely Spirit Severing. Donovan, on the other hand, was fifth realm to Imminent Immortal. The two had such a significant difference in power, yet the tables had turned.
“Why did you…” Serene seemed upset though Frostine managed to defeat Donovan easily. Her eyes were filled with sorrow and disappointment.
Whenever the Nine-Tails received a legacy, a certain phenomenon would occur during the consolidation phase. The more time one took to consolidate, the more power they would receive.
Frostine, however, took only one day to consolidate her powers.
Serene remembered that back then, she had to use up an entire week. That meant that the power Frostine received was just one-seventh of what she received then. In conclusion, it meant that the consolidation phase had failed.
She sighed, knowing that the reason would possibly be because of what Frostine had experienced. Her roots have been destroyed due to the cruel methods the Yavda monk used to forcefully activate her blood, making her end up like this.
Someone who had their legacy ruined wouldn’t be able to go far, to begin with.
‘How could she become Plenilune Sect master?’
‘I’m done for!’
‘I, the son of luck, have unexpectedly been defeated time and time again after meeting this Rockefeller guy! Looks like I’ll die in his hands today. What a pity!’ Donovan thought
At the very last moment, the jade pendant he wore shattered into pieces as a ball of white light dawned upon them. It seemed quite malicious.
Alex could feel a massive, terrifying presence descending. Chill ran up his spine, and goosebumps sprouted all over his body.
Without hesitation, he backed away the quickest he could, dodging whatever that was coming.
Shing!
A sword came from the skies, slashing down on Alex’s initial position.
