Chapter 352 You sure talk a lot, don’t you?
The newly emerged parallel dimension.
As news of the Guilds recruiting apprentices and videos of intense battles between Soulmancers spread online, more and more people entered from all directions.
The speed at which the major Guilds establish their Guild bases is also extremely fast.
In just one day, large Soulmancer organizations had constructed basic buildings within their allotted territories.
Occasionally, mid-level Soulmancers and above, capable of levitating, were seen flying towards this newly emerged land. It's rare for a beginner Soulmancer like Victor to fly, which is why there's a belief that reaching the mid-level Soulmancer status changes the laws of nature.
Once someone attains mid-level Soulmancer status, their lifespan significantly increases, and they can truly manipulate various energies around them.
The Emerald Lion Guild also marked its territory in this area.
After Garen Steel, the leader of the Emerald Lion Guild, chose an energy-rich location for the Guild's base, visitors, mainly from other Guilds, came continuously, mostly to inquire about Alice's true strength.
"Garen, are you saying there really are gods hidden among ordinary people?"
This question was asked by Aurelius Blaze, the leader of the Crimson Phoenix Guild.
Both of them were Soulmancers from the late medieval period. Nowadays, there are only a few dozen people at the Demi-God level, followed by the Quasi-Deity level. But what about those beyond the Quasi-Deity level?
It's said that after reaching beyond Quasi-Deity level, one must abandon their physical body and, in a soul state, reach the Divine Realm, known as Lesser Deity.
After becoming a deity, even if a god descends, their strength couldn't possibly exceed the Quasi-Deity level, or be merely at the Demi-God level like Seraphina.
Aurelius, being the founder of the Crimson Phoenix Guild, naturally knew this.
It seemed like a universal law: those surpassing the Quasi-Deity level shouldn't exist in this world, logically speaking.
Yet Garen is a legendary warrior. Although he's only at the Demi-God level in terms of strength, his combat prowess is astonishing. Among those Demi-God level powerhouses, he ranks in the top ten.
Now, however, there's someone who made him choose to concede after just one move...
Terrifying when you think about it!
Garen took a deep breath, stood up, and paced twice in the hall.
He waved his hand, summoning his enormous divine sword, and said, "Aurelius, you know me. My Valor's Edge may not be the ultimate divine weapon, but I have tempered it with my own essence for over six hundred years. It has now developed its own Sword Spirit."
"The other day, I encountered Alice. Without doing anything, she severed the connection between my Sword Spirit and me, and I couldn't muster even a trace of energy..." Garen said with a wry smile, "You remember my sparring with Astraeus Titan from the Pantheon Guild two hundred years ago, right?"
"Astraeus is at the peak of Quasi-Deity level, almost stepping into the Divine Realm. Although I was at a disadvantage in that fight, it wasn't to the extent that I couldn't even wield my sword!"
Hearing this, Aurelius's eyes twitched.
The Pantheon Guild, as the most powerful Guild of the present, with its leader Astraeus, is recognized as the world's strongest Soulmancer.
According to Garen, does this mean that the person he met the other day is stronger than Astraeus?
Isn't that akin to a god?
As they were talking, Valor's Edge, which had been floating in mid-air emitting a faint golden glow, suddenly lost its light and fell to the ground.
Garen was startled; the sword had already plunged into the floor.
Aurelius and Garen exchanged glances.
Garen's facial muscles twitched slightly, and he said with difficulty, "She's here…"
Aurelius, looking at the divine sword stuck in the ground, also took a deep breath.
The person hadn't arrived yet, but Garen couldn't even control his own divine sword. What kind of power is this?
It was said that the day Alice arrived, everyone lost the ability to levitate.
Aurelius also tried to summon his own sword, but the result shocked him.
He couldn't even summon his divine sword.
"Don't bother trying! I can't even retrieve my sword now," Garen said with a bitter smile, pulling out the divine sword and then looking towards the entrance.
Aurelius was now truly experiencing the terrifying extent of Alice's power.
Just three miles away from the Emerald Lion Guild, Steven, Alice, and their group were walking towards the Guild.
William also came along, persuaded by Alice's relentless entreaties.
As the three of them walked through this area, occasionally people would fly over their heads, but suddenly, these people would fall from mid-air, landing on the ground with bewildered expressions.
The Sword Spirit of the Sword of Soulbreaker couldn't help but say to Alice, "How dare someone fly in front of me, that's practically courting death!"
"Hm? What do you mean?" Alice didn't understand what the Sword of Soulbreaker meant.
The Sword Spirit then began to boast, "Master, I don't like it when people fly over my head. Not to brag, but in my presence, even gods didn't dare to use swords as weapons."
"You've heard of Zeus' 'Thunder Sword,' Apollo's 'Sun Sword,' Athena's 'Wisdom Sword,' and Ares' 'War Sword,' right?" said the Sword of Soulbreaker proudly. "The Sword Spirits of those four swords could only kneel before me. Anyone using a sword as a weapon wouldn't dare to release their sword techniques in my presence."
Alice was stunned, having heard of Zeus' 'Thunder Sword,' Apollo's 'Sun Sword,' Athena's 'Wisdom Sword,' and Ares' 'War Sword' – the divine weapons of mythological lore.
Their formidable power was imaginable.
But according to the Sword of Soulbreaker, it seemed to be much more powerful than those four swords.
Alice sneaked a glance at William, knowing that everything he gave her was a treasure. She knew the Sword of Soulbreaker was powerful but had no idea it was to such an impressive extent.
Yet William had given it to her like it was just an ordinary item.
Thinking this, Alice's heart raced.
See, I knew my master was just not good at expressing his feelings!
William, standing nearby, couldn't possibly not hear the Sword Spirit's nonsense.
He glanced at the Sword of Soulbreaker hanging on Alice's wrist and transmitted his thoughts coldly: "You sure talk a lot, don't you?"
The Sword Spirit immediately got scared and didn't dare say another word.
William had already sealed its power, and now if it annoyed him further and he sealed its ability to speak, that would be too boring.
"Steven, so I just stand beside you later, right?" Alice and the others were already standing in front of the Emerald Lion Guild's gate. Alice suddenly felt a bit nervous – facing Garen from the Emerald Lion Guild again!
What if they realized she was just bluffing? That wouldn't be fun.
Steven also sneaked a glance at William and smiled, "Alice, you just need to stand beside me, and leave the rest to me."
He knew Alice probably wasn't a Demi-God level powerhouse, but with William by their side, what could go wrong?
Most importantly, their visit today was just to discuss matters regarding ordinary people with the Emerald Lion Guild. He believed Garen wouldn't give them a hard time.
