Some had left the center of the battle after being injured, and there were those waiting at the sidelines for an opportunity to kill people and steal the keys once the battle was over.A few had that plan in mind, but the beasts did not think that way.Many people were gathered at the sides, most of them already injured. In the eyes of the beasts, they were blood beads that they could harvest!The golden python and two other beasts rushed over, catching Calruz and Toren off-guard as their eyes widened, and their hearts nearly leaped out of their chests. The two of them never expected danger to come so quickly!If Olesm had not been so badly injured, they might have been able to deal with it. At worst, they could have fled as they fought back. However, Olesm was injured, unable to even stand up straight, let alone help. The two of them would need to avoid the attacks while they protected Olesm.This was the moment they believed their end had come.Toren cursed at Calruz internally
The two other beasts unleashed their attacks as well. After a moment, all the attacks clashed in the air, causing a massive explosion that formed a crater on the ground.Dust flew all around them, obscuring most of their vision. However, they could still hear cries of agony, and before too long, silence fell.Slowly, the dust began to settle. They could once again see what was in front of them.Calruz was stunned, still rooted where he stood after being pushed by Fane. His eyes were fixed forward as he looked at the golden python's mangled corpse. Then, he looked at the corpses of the two beasts behind that were not whole either.His eyes widened as his lips twitched. His heart was thumping wildly, and he even forgot to breathe. His hands trembled slightly as he looked at Fane again.How was that guy so skilled?!There was a massive gulf between them, especially skill-wise. He was like an ant on the ground, while Fane was like a golden phoenix in the skies.Calruz broke out in c
Calruz and Toren were so astounded that they did not know how to react. A powerful warrior wanted to work with them. It was not just a simple order either; Fane would give them a reward. Even though it was only five golden keys, it was a decent reward.Calruz coughed, carefully turning to look at Toren, unable to decide. Toren did not even dare to frown, worried that Fane would be unhappy. He merely lowered his head slightly, thinking through everything Fane had said.Toren wanted to leave immediately. It was just too dangerous there. It was no longer somewhere they could stay behind. Even though Fane said he would guarantee their safety, he did not completely trust him.Even though Fane was incredibly strong, Fane could not gain Toren's complete trust. After all, it involved his own life. They were not at Cloud City but at Chaos City instead, where death was everywhere. They were at the most dangerous place in the whole Chaos City.Nonetheless, he was worried that the man in front
Before he could finish, Fane raised a hand and interrupted him, "Don't worry, I won't send you two to your deaths like that. You just need to look for chances to attack the beasts at the fringes."At that moment, Rudy had hurried over from afar. Fane had arranged for Rudy to stay at a safer spot earlier instead of bringing him along when he first attacked the golden python. Since the situation was calmer, Rudy walked over.Rudy looked at Fane and noticed that he was getting even more confused. Fane was just planning on dealing with the beasts that were at the sides, not wanting to bother with the strongest beasts that were at the center.However, Fane clearly said that he wanted to be the final victor. His words and his current actions were a bit conflicting. If it was anyone else, Rudy would have thought they were just bragging. However, since it was Fane, he would not think that way.Fane was not someone who would exaggerate things at all. No matter what, Fane had always said thi
They were about two kilometers away from the battlefield, so they could observe the battle without getting involved. Rudy looked incredibly excited. 226 golden keys were amazing. If all of them were used to exchange for resources, it would earn them a treasure that even a divine solidifying realm warrior would want!With that in mind, Rudy was even more excited than Fane. After all, Fane was his greatest benefactor. The stronger Fane was, the safer Rudy would be.Rudy looked at Fane and said excitedly, "This was worth it!"Fane nodded as he looked at the battlefield.Rudy looked at Fane curiously, "I thought you'd kill those two."Fane shook his head. He had been hiding by the side and only walked over because he was sure that the three of them already decided to leave. One of those three, Olesm, was heavily injured as well.Even though the man named Calruz was unwilling, he forgot all of that the moment the golden python rushed over. After the three of them finished their end of
The Black-scaled Tiger would send a warrior hanging for their life with just a slash whereas those even weaker warriors would die from just one strike. After the warriors die at the hands of the beasts, they would immediately form blood beads.The tiger would get much more excited with each blood bead it acquires. Blood beads were like treasures for the beasts. After absorbing enough blood beads, they would be able to level up their skills.At that moment, the Black-scaled Tiger looked like a wolf in a rabbit den. Fane quietly observed everything the tiger was doing. It reached out its massive claw and struck at a warrior before it opened its bloody mouth to rip the warrior's throat apart, using its natural-born technique to take the warrior's life.Rudy stood next to Fane, looking up at the battlefield in front of him. Rudy could not tell what Fane was planning on doing, but Rudy's intuition told him that Fane had grand plans. Time slowly ticked away, and the three sides slowly fou
However, those people were usually narcissistic, regarding everyone else as beneath them. Rudy had thought that those warriors might not care about the regular warriors, but would at least care about the warriors that were above average.After all, those stronger warriors were only a bit weaker than those that stood at the top and had significant positions in their respective worlds. However, it did not seem like the case at all.Most of the ones that had died during the battle were above-average warriors. They were stronger than normal warriors, or they would not have stayed in the deepest parts of the inner region. They were incredibly confident in their skills, and that was why they stayed behind. However, that was also why they did not survive.Those warriors that stood at the top did not care about anyone other than themselves. They would only call for a stop when they were in danger themselves. They had clearly seen so many of the stronger warriors die in front of them, but th
"Even before they died, they probably never expected that they would just be crops to be harvested in the eyes of the top warriors. The top warriors had merely shouted and attacked a few times, but it was the others who lost their lives."Rudy was speechless for a long time after hearing that. He really had underestimated human nature. Just like Fane had said, the true winners of the battle were those that stood at the time. They used their authority to carry out their despicable methods however they wanted to, killing others to gain their keys.Fane smiled as he narrowed his eyes and continued, "We need to wait! Once they leave, we'll…"Two hours later, the Black-scaled Tiger returned to its den.It was a small valley, and it was at the center of the valley. It had used its sharp claws to dig out a cave. There was some wild grass he had gotten from somewhere. After that intense battle, it had obtained a few dozen blood beads.It absorbed a portion of it, and there were still twen
