Chapter 561: Chapter 561 Wrath From The Heavens
The Great Saint Sect members couldn’t afford to hesitate and immediately charged toward me, launching various attacks to disrupt my breakthrough!
At that moment, Ximena Santos led Green Moon Villa’s forces and positioned themselves as my shield.
"You won’t disturb Mr. Raymond’s cultivation!" Ximena Santos roared furiously!
Green Moon Villa’s members echoed in unison: "You will not interrupt Lord Raymond’s training!"
"Hmph, bunch of foolish and reckless fools!" Atkinson Samson spoke with icy contempt.
"Anyone who dares obstruct us, slaughter them all!"
"Yes!" The Great Saint Sect disciples responded.
After all, they possessed Peak Grandmaster strength, some even reaching half-step Martial Marquis level!
Meanwhile, Green Moon Villa’s strongest members barely reached Peak Grandmaster. How could they possibly match such power?
"Everyone, block them at all costs!" Ximena Santos gritted her teeth.
"Once Mr. Raymond completes his breakthrough, the Great Saint Sect will crumble!"
With those words, Ximena Santos charged forward first!
Inspired by Ximena Santos’s leadership and Roberts Joshua’s sacrifice, the others found their courage too.
Battle erupted instantly!
Brilliant flashes lit up everywhere while blood flowed in streams!
Bodies were sent flying by devastating strikes, some with skulls crushed on impact!
Yet still, they maintained their protective formation around me!
"Bang!"
Someone’s strike connected with Ximena Santos’s chest.
Her fragile form sailed through the air, her complexion turning deathly pale.
"Hmph, mere insects thinking they can block us?" The Great Saint Sect members sneered coldly.
Ximena Santos glanced at me, surrounded by brilliant radiance, and clenched her jaw. She forced herself upright!
"Mr. Raymond, please be quick!" Ximena Santos pleaded silently!
Witnessing this scene, Atkinson Samson’s expression darkened considerably!
He attempted to break free from Roberts Joshua, but Roberts Joshua clung like iron shackles, refusing to release his grip no matter what.
Atkinson Samson began to feel desperate. He understood clearly that once I reached the Martial Marquis Realm, the Great Saint Sect would be powerless against my wrath!
"These cursed lowly insects!" Atkinson Samson bellowed repeatedly!
His gaze unconsciously shifted toward my position, witnessing the energy bursting from my body and meridians blazing with light—clear signs of breakthrough to Martial Marquis!
"Damn it all!" Atkinson Samson raged, his palm glowing brilliantly as he drove it straight into Roberts Joshua’s spine!
"Puff!"
Roberts Joshua seemed to reach his limit. His awareness began fading, but his mind held one unwavering command.
Stop Atkinson Samson!
"Boom!"
Meanwhile, another devastating blow sent Ximena Santos flying!
Blood trickled from her lips, and a massive wound tore open her chest!
Against a half-step Martial Marquis, Ximena Santos stood no chance of retaliation.
She struggled to rise, but a razor-sharp blade pierced her left chest, pinning her body against the wall!
Over half of Green Moon Villa’s people lay dead or wounded, and the survivors began showing fear.
Surrounded by corpses, they couldn’t help but step back.
They revered me, but when death stared them down, nobody could remain fearless.
"Go now and stop Mason Raymond!" Atkinson Samson commanded.
His subordinates immediately advanced toward me!
Finally, Roberts Joshua could endure no more.
His entire frame went limp, all energy slowly draining away.
Darkness consumed his vision, and his grip on Atkinson Samson finally released.
"Mason Raymond, it’s your turn now..." Roberts Joshua whispered faintly before collapsing.
Atkinson Samson’s face turned frigid, power surging as he sneered, "Mason Raymond, forget about reaching Martial Marquis!"
Speaking thus, Atkinson Samson was already advancing toward me!
Destructive force gathered in his hands, intending to eliminate me with one blow!
Just as his palm neared me, storm clouds suddenly amassed overhead!
"Crack!"
Thunder rumbled across the heavens!
Lightning struck precisely, landing directly before Atkinson Samson!
Atkinson Samson’s expression shifted dramatically, his hand instinctively pulling back!
"Blast! Too late!" Atkinson Samson looked utterly displeased!
If I broke through to Martial Marquis Realm, Atkinson Samson would become insignificant!
Understanding this better than anyone, Atkinson Samson ground his teeth, desperate to halt my advancement.
However, facing this heavenly tribulation containing celestial power, Atkinson Samson dared not advance!
My body sparkled with points of light, terrifying energy brewing within.
"Crack!"
The ten light beams piercing my body shattered instantly under the energy’s force!
My flesh regenerated at incredible speed!
I slowly rose from the ground.
At this moment, I radiated brilliance like a War God!
My cold eyes fixed on Atkinson Samson.
Just this exchange of gazes sent chills down Atkinson Samson’s spine!
"The heavenly tribulation... finally arrives." I gazed up at the dense clouds gathering above and murmured quietly.
Atkinson Samson drew a deep breath and declared coldly, "Mason Raymond, as long as I’m present, you won’t successfully overcome this tribulation!"
"Try me." I replied icily.
Atkinson Samson clenched his jaw, energy surging rapidly as he moved to stop me!
But then, heavenly thunder descended!
"Boom!"
The celestial lightning struck like a silver serpent!
The tremendous force blasted Atkinson Samson backward!
"How... How can this be!" Seeing the tribulation, Atkinson Samson’s eyes went wide with shock!
He had endured his own Martial Marquis tribulation, but it had never possessed such power!
This heavenly tribulation was at least dozens of times more intense than his own!
The onlookers were equally stunned.
This didn’t resemble a tribulation—it looked like an attempt at complete annihilation!
"Such a fearsome heavenly tribulation, beyond imagination." Atkinson Samson narrowed his eyes, muttering quietly.
As a Martial Marquis, he naturally understood what such a terrifying tribulation signified.
The greater one’s talent, the more horrifying the tribulation’s power!
"If this boy survives, who knows how terrifying his future might become." Atkinson Samson squinted.
He retreated several steps, sneering, "Fine, I don’t believe you can survive this ordeal."
The heavenly tribulation struck again!
This time proved even more devastating than before!
Atkinson Samson couldn’t help but shout, "Let’s see how you handle this!"
Before his words finished, Atkinson Samson’s eyes widened in disbelief!
He swallowed hard and whispered, "What is Mason Raymond... planning to do?!"
I showed no intention of defending against the lightning. Instead, I sat cross-legged on the ground, allowing the silver radiance to cascade over me!
