Antonio's face revealed a trace of a ferocious smile. The White Bone Giant Wolf's strength was equal to a peak Origin Sea Stage martial warrior. At such a close distance, he didn't believe that Alex had any other tricks up his sleeve. He was completely sure that Alex would at least be heavily injured or might even die.
"Go to hell!"
Antonio shouted coldly and tried to make the White Bone Giant Wolf directly collide against Alex's body, however, at this moment, a white snake slipped out of Alex's sleeve and hissed at the White Bone Giant Wolf, causing the wolf to immediately break its speed and stop in midair. This resulted in a great force to struck Antonio who was sent flying toward Alex as his body curled up.
Alex revealed a cruel smile on his face. He took a deep breath, raised one of his legs, and kicked hard at Antonio's chest.
Boom!
Antonio was again sent flying in opposite direction. He kept colliding against tress, breaking them into many pieces, and kept shooting backward. After a while, he landed on the ground and miserably rolled a few times.
"What the hell?" Rishi was shocked. He had never imagined witnessing such a scene one day. A peak Spirit Origin Stage martial warrior actually sent flying a Heavenly Completion Stage martial warrior with just one kick.
Well, it was not important though. The important thing was, why did the White Bone Giant Wolf suddenly stop in midair? Wasn't it being controlled by Antonio? Could it be that Antonio has lost control over the demonic beast?
"This is... Impossible! I must be hallucinating. Yes, it can't be true!"
Walter and others were the same. All of them were stunned. Even in their dreams, they had never thought that it would be Antonio who'll receive heavy damage instead of Alex even though it was him who tried to ambush.
On the flying ship, there was complete silence. No one was talking for a while. After some time, Sorya was the first one to react: "Now this is something interesting. Morcus, what do you think?"
Morcus's mouth twitched when he heard this. But he didn't say anything, instead, he was looking at the little white snake on Alex's right hand.
Seeing that Morcus didn't say anything, Ashneer said: "Before, we were talking about that boy having some trump card up his sleeve. I didn't expect it to be true, his trump card was really hiding inside his sleeve."
Morcus's mouth once again twitched. He took a deep breath and asked: "What kind of demonic beast is that? To be able to scare the White Bone Giant Wolf with hissing, its origin must not be simple. I have never seen a demonic beast like that!"
Sorya also nodded his head in agreement. He had also never seen or even heard of a demonic beast like the white snake on Alex's hand. He said: "White Bone Giant Wolf is clearly a Rank 7 demonic beast, but even it is afraid of the little white snake on Alex's arm. This snake is really not ordinary. Moreover, the White Bone Giant Wolf is still under the control of Antonio and shouldn't fear even while facing a demonic beast much stronger or of a higher leveled bloodline. There really is something special about that little demonic beast. We can't even sense its strength!"
What the three of them didn't know was that another white snake, which is many times more terrifying than the little white snake, was hidden under Alex's sleeve. It has yet to come out.
As for why they can't sense the little snake's cultivation, it is because little White Devouring Beast was already a Peak Crystal Transformation Stage demonic beast even though it was just a newborn beast.
And they, the Deacon Elders, were much weaker than little Light Devouring Beast. So, it is not that surprising for them to not sense the Light Devouring Beast cultivation under its deliberate shrouding.
.....
Antonio crawled up with difficulty from the ground. After standing up, the first thing it did was vomit out a mouthful of blood. When he stabilized himself, he looked at Alex with red eyes. Anyone could see anger and embarrassment on his face.
Taking a deep breath, he prepared to attack Alex. The air around him started churning as the temperature rose bit by bit, soon becoming so hot that the green tries in Antonio's surroundings started burning.
Antonio shot forward at full speed and landed on the White Bone Giant Wolf's back. He can feel his connection with this beast and knew this beast was still under his control. Then the reason why it suddenly stopped in mid-air must have something to do with Alex.
Observing Alex carefully, Antonio soon discovered the little White Snake looking at him with its small eyes. But for some reason, Antonio felt a cold chill running down his spines when his gaze met with the little White Snake's gaze. He immediately started sweating.
He felt very uncomfortable, so he hurriedly shifted his gaze from the white snake to Alex. He wanted to escape this place after looking into the little white snake's eyes, however, he was too embarrassed to run away just like that in front of so many people. His reputation that he had built after years of effort will be ruined in an instant.
Thus, he prepared to strike. He wanted to strike one last time and see if he could at least injure Alex or not. If the little White Snake interfered in the middle, he would escape immediately.
Thinking like this, Antonio was ready to attack.
"Devil Killing Five Great Poison Palm!"
Antonio's reaction was extremely fast. He knew, in the current situation, he could only use his ultimate skill to kill Alex.
As soon as the palm technique was unleashed, a terrifying wind suddenly soar. The wind carried a rotten smell as it gently brushed past everyone's faces. Even Rishi and the others, who were standing in another direction, could not help but cover their noses. It could be seen that the target, Alex, was currently enduring a foul smell.
"What a poisonous palm technique. If Alex is hit by this palm attack, he might really turn into a pool of blood and die painfully!" Rishi was a little nervous as he muttered.
However, how could Alex not do anything against such an attack? He also attacked with a palm technique that instantly dispersed the stench in the air, and flew towards Antonio.
It was actually not Alex's palm technique that eradicated the foul smell in the air, instead, it was the circulating air created by the launch of his palm technique that forced the air filled with foul smell to change direction and disperse.
"What a strong energy! What kind of palm technique is this?"
"What is this kid's background? He hasn't even reached the Origin Sea Stage yet he can fight against a Heavenly Completion Stage martial warrior so easily. What is more, his palm attack is in no way inferior to Antonio's. In fact, it is more powerful."
Walter looked at Rishi and said. Rishi's attention was now focused on Alex and Antonio, so he didn't answer Walter's question. This caused Walter's expression to slightly change, and he felt a little unhappy in his heart.
"Bang!"
One Peak Spirit Origin Stage martial warrior and one Heavenly Completion Stage Level 1 martial warrior, after the two's palm techniques collided, they both took a few steps back.
"What a terrifying palm technique? Where exactly did you come from?"
Antonio looked at Alex coldly. There was a trace of shock and seriousness in his eyes. His hands, which were placed behind his back, were trembling slightly.
"If you want to fight, then fight. Why are you talking so much nonsense? Do you still want to sneak attack me?"
Alex didn't answer, instead, he told Antonio not to talk nonsense, causing Antonio's face to turn gloomy.
Fortunately, he confirmed one thing. The little snake on Alex's hand wouldn't attack him. At least, not until Alex falls in great danger or Alex order it to attack him.
"Damn it!"
A trace of anxiety flashed across his face. In others' eyes, although he and Alex might have been tied in the previous attack, however, he knew that this was not the reality. Under his attack, Alex remained completely fine. On the contrary, the moment he was hit, the energy and blood inside his body started to churn. Adding to the internal injuries that he had just suffered from Alex's attack, the meridians in Antonio's body were already damaged greatly.
"I can't delay any longer."
Clenching his teeth, Antonio's eyes revealed a trace of reluctance. After looking at Alex, he took out a bomb-like item from his pocket and violently smashed it onto the ground. Instantly, a foul smell of black smoke rose.
Alex hurriedly covered his nose and retreated.
Rishi and the others also retreated more than 30 meters.
