Chapter 502: Chapter 502 Fear Seals The Gate
Elder Adrianne’s eagle-like palm carried vicious inner strength as it struck directly at my dantian!
His plan was wickedly cruel—cripple me first, then execute me publicly at the wedding!
"Clang!"
But when Elder Adrianne’s palm connected with my stomach, his face twisted in shock!
Sharp pain shot through his fingers while I stood there completely unharmed!
"What an iron body!" Elder Adrianne’s expression shifted dramatically.
Before he could process his surprise, I backhanded him across the face.
The slap launched Elder Adrianne through the air!
Atkinson Samson shot Elder Adrianne a cold look and sneered, "Pathetic waste."
Elder Adrianne scrambled up from the floor, stammering awkwardly, "Sect Master, this kid’s body is impossibly tough. I can’t handle him..."
Atkinson Samson dismissed Elder Adrianne and fixed his icy stare on me. "Still planning to resist?"
I pushed myself off the ground, drew a deep breath, and declared, "I’ll repeat myself. If you can’t kill me today, I’ll wipe the Great Saint Sect off the face of this earth."
"Insolent!" Atkinson Samson exploded with rage, clenching his fist and driving it toward me!
I activated the Shrinking Ground Into An Inch technique to evade his strike!
Atkinson Samson’s fist slammed into the wall behind me, sending vibrations humming through the entire structure!
I glanced at the trembling wall, an idea sparking in my mind.
"Your speed’s decent, but think you can dodge my second punch?" Atkinson Samson said icily.
He launched another punch at me!
This strike came blazingly fast, but I still managed to slip away!
Atkinson Samson’s expression grew even darker.
Two consecutive misses clearly left Atkinson Samson feeling humiliated.
"Foolish brat," Atkinson Samson snarled coldly.
His inner strength erupted, unleashing terrifying pressure throughout the space!
Even my face turned serious at the overwhelming force.
Against Atkinson Samson’s enraged assault, I couldn’t afford any mistakes.
I immediately activated the Saintly Body Skill and summoned the Venerable Fifth Mountain above my head.
"Die!"
Atkinson Samson roared and unleashed a devastating punch at me with incredible velocity!
The speed was too overwhelming—even I couldn’t dodge it!
The gap between our cultivation levels was massive, nearly impossible to overcome!
"Boom!"
The punch connected with me dead-on!
My body rocketed backward like a fired cannonball!
"Crash!"
The club’s wall crumbled under the impact! The formation shattered at that very moment, destroyed by Atkinson Samson’s own hand!
Dust clouds billowed everywhere, blocking everyone’s sight.
Before them lay nothing but rubble and debris.
——
Atkinson Samson stood with hands clasped behind his back, smirking coldly.
"Sect...Sect Master, did that punch kill him?" Elder Adrianne asked nervously.
The attack’s power was so immense that just its shockwave had made Elder Adrianne’s mouth bleed!
Atkinson Samson felt uncertain too, saying coldly, "Go investigate. I hope he survived."
Elder Adrianne nodded frantically, rushing to the wreckage to search for any trace of Mason Raymond.
However, several minutes later, Elder Adrianne’s face went white with terror!
"Sec...Sect Master! Mason Raymond has vanished!" Elder Adrianne shouted in panic!
Atkinson Samson scowled and quickly moved over, standing next to Elder Adrianne.
Sure enough, only a blood puddle remained on the ground—no sign of Mason Raymond anywhere!
"Damn it, he got away!" Elder Adrianne cried out in dismay.
Atkinson Samson’s face darkened further! Suddenly, realization struck him!
"That Mason Raymond... he actually played me!" Atkinson Samson raged!
Mason Raymond couldn’t break the barrier on his own, so he used his body to absorb Atkinson Samson’s attack!
He turned himself into a human projectile, forcibly smashing through the barrier!
"How could he survive that punch?!" Elder Adrianne’s face showed lingering terror.
Atkinson Samson nearby clenched his teeth and said coldly, "This boy defies normal logic. Either way, we must eliminate him immediately!"
At this moment, Atkinson Samson actually felt genuine fear!
Someone who could withstand his punch at half-step Martial Marquis Realm—he couldn’t imagine what would happen if Mason was allowed to develop further!
"Hunt him down!" Atkinson Samson commanded coldly.
——
Right now, I was using Shrinking Ground Into An Inch to flee with everything I had!
Blood covered my entire body, with multiple broken bones, making me look absolutely wretched!
"Damn, a Martial Marquis’s reputation is definitely earned!" My breathing came out weak and ragged.
That single punch had left me severely wounded!
"Without the Venerable Fifth Mountain, I would’ve actually died back there." My face looked ghastly.
My breathing was extremely shallow, but I didn’t dare slow down even slightly.
If Atkinson Samson caught me, I’d definitely die today!
"Atkinson Samson... you’ll pay for this!" I gritted my teeth and spoke coldly.
I had covered dozens of miles in moments before reaching a forest.
I concealed my presence and took shelter in a cave temporarily.
Sitting cross-legged on the ground, I slowly worked to restore my breathing.
——
Meanwhile, Atkinson Samson had searched dozens of miles without finding any trace of Mason Raymond.
"Sect Master, this kid moves too fast—we can’t track him down at all," Elder Adrianne said, gasping for air.
Atkinson Samson’s face looked absolutely terrible!
Today had been a massive disaster for him.
Not only had he failed to capture Mason Raymond, but he’d also made enemies of the Barnes family in Sea City!
More critically, Mason Raymond remained alive!
This spelled absolute catastrophe for the Great Saint Sect!
If Mason Raymond launched his brutal revenge campaign, the Great Saint Sect might truly collapse!
"Sect Master, what’s our next move?" Elder Adrianne inquired.
Atkinson Samson said coldly, "Return first. Use every connection to locate Mason Raymond!"
"Meanwhile, inform the Great Saint Sect that starting today, nobody leaves!"
Atkinson Samson was genuinely terrified. He feared Mason Raymond would slaughter everyone in the Great Saint Sect!
If that occurred, the Great Saint Sect would have nothing left.
Three days flew by in an instant.
News of the Great Saint Sect sealing its mountain gate spread rapidly.
"Did you hear? The Great Saint Sect closed its mountain gate!"
"Haha, I heard it’s because they’re terrified of Mason Raymond!"
"Exactly, same here. Everyone in the Great Saint Sect is panicking, scared of getting hunted down and killed by Mason Raymond!"
"Man, I’ve got to respect Mason Raymond. He actually forced an entire sect to lock down with just his own power! This has to be a historical first, right?"
Endless discussions kept brewing on the Martial Arts Forum, and the Capital City Martial Arts Association couldn’t delete them fast enough.
"Damn it!" Seeing these posts, Logan Sean’s face turned green with rage.
He pulled out his phone and called Atkinson Samson.
"You worthless piece of garbage! You’ve humiliated the entire Great Saint Sect!" The moment the call connected, Logan Sean unleashed a torrent of curses!
Atkinson Samson didn’t dare respond much on the other end. Even as a Martial Marquis, he still wouldn’t risk offending the Sean family.
"I’m giving you three days to fix this mess, or you can fucking die!" After dropping this ultimatum, Logan Sean slammed the phone down.
As soon as that call ended, Logan Sean’s phone rang again.
Looking at the screen, he saw the caller was Sea City Mr. Greer.
