Chapter 1566
All this talk about calamity was extremely hard to believe.
Jackson did not quite believe it, and neither did Delainey.
“Huff.”
The Omniscient Deity sighed.
Hell was about to break loose, and chaos would befall them.
He could not predict what would happen or if the situation would get out of control.
The sky gradually grew lighter.
The crowd at the peak of Mt. Thunder Pass increased.
After dawn, more than 30 people appeared on top of Mt. Thunder Pass.
The 30 onlookers were all prominent figures in the ancient martial world. They were all curious to watch the battle
and witness the strength of the Celestial Sect’s leader. Moreover, they wanted to know Tobias’ strength and rank
after absorbing the True Energy of James and other martial artists.
The sun gradually rose.
Soon, it was already ten in the morning.
At a little over ten, a man slowly approached the base of Mt. Thunder Pass.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe was dressed in a suit and carried a long sword with him.
Although he looked like he was moving slowly, he traveled halfway up the mountain with just a few steps. After a
few more steps, he appeared on top of the mountain.
His afterimage on the mountainside disappeared when he reached the mountaintop.
“He’s here!”
“Tobias is here!”
“Tsk, tsk. He’s not going to go down so easily. He already looks so much younger. I wonder what rank he has
reached?”
A huge commotion broke when Tobias appeared.
Plenty of people gathered around.
After Tobias appeared, he cast his gaze over everyone who had come to the area.
He smiled faintly.
Compared to when he was Malgudi, he was much stronger now.
He was not afraid of anyone.
Meanwhile, a white pigeon flew over to The Omniscient Deity.
The Omniscient Deity raised his hand, and the pigeon landed on it.
He untied the note wrapped around the pigeon’s leg and unfurled it to read its contents.
After reading the note, his expression suddenly changed.
Standing beside him, Jackson asked, “What’s the matter?”
The Omniscient Deity said, “There has been news that something big has happened in the ancient martial world in
the past few days.”
“What happened?” asked Delainey.
The Omniscient Deity confided, “Martial artists from Sylvan Sect, Heaven and Earth Sect, and Five Swirling Blades
Sect have suddenly died. It seems they died gruesomely and their corpses were shriveled and dried when they
were found. It seems their Blood Essence had been drained from them. This started happening a week ago.”
Hearing this, both Jackson and Delainey’s expressions became grim.
The two looked at Tobias, who had appeared at Mt. Thunder Pass.
Jackson muttered quietly, “Could it have been done by Tobias?”
“It’s possible.”
Taking a deep breath, the Omniscient Deity said gravely, “If that’s the case, it’ll be hard to predict the outcome of
this battle.”
“Omniscient Deity. What kind of martial art technique had Tobias practiced? How is it possible for him to absorb
other people’s True Energy? I’ve never heard of such a technique before.”
The Omniscient Deity thought for a while before replying hesitantly, “If I’m not wrong, he must’ve learned the Great
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLaw of Absorption.”
“The Great Law of Absorption? Where’s that from?” asked Jackson.
“It’s a martial art technique that has existed for more than a thousand years. There aren’t any detailed records
about it, even in Jade Sect. Only brief mentions of it exist. Apparently, it was created before the time of the Prince
of Orchid Mountain. It’s a forsaken period in history, and very little is recorded about it.”
“That’s horrifying.” Delainey wore an appalled expression.
At that moment, James gradually opened his eyes.
His gaze was drawn toward Tobias, who had appeared.
Tobias was slightly taken aback to see James.
He had already absorbed James’ True Energy and disabled him.
How was it possible for him to appear on Mt. Thunder Pass?
Tobias said darkly, “You’re harder to kill than a weed, James. I heard Celestial Sect’s leader is Thea. Since Thea
hasn’t shown up yet, I’ll kill you first, and deal with her later.”
Tobias’ face bore a murderous look.
He walked toward James slowly.
James continued sitting on the ground motionless as if he was part of the mountain.
Swoosh!
Suddenly, a figure flitted and appeared in front of James.
