Chapter 248: All is Lost

Logan drew a deep breath, facing the deadly strike without panic, knowing full well that fear wouldn’t change anything. He merely mustered all the strength in his body to cast a Divine Skill, and it collided with the thunderbolt.

Although blessed with a divine weapon, Logan was only a fledgling Transcendent Tier after all, unable to withstand the blow of a Sanctuary Powerhouse. The very next moment, he was sent flying by more than a dozen meters, the terrible thunderbolt’s force continued to severely damage him, causing his entire body to writhe in agony. It seemed like his body might genuinely explode at this instant.

Logan refused to admit defeat, and he bellowed, “That’s all there is to it! If I can withstand this, feel free to use whatever else you have. As long as I have one breath left in me, I will stay right here and not bat an eyelash. Yes, the Sanctuary Powerhouses are powerful, but don’t underestimate the spine of a Transcendent Tier! Even ants can defy the heavens!”

“Die,” The Heavenly Saint Taoist had lost his patience. In one stride, he crossed ten meters, arriving directly in front of Logan and struck with a heavy blow. Being in a state of extreme pain and serious injury, Logan couldn’t resist. He could only let out a wry smile, close his eyes and quietly wait for the onslaught.

But at the next moment, the attack was blocked. Balke Yun suddenly appeared at that moment, and besides him was a Half-step Saint-level Demon Beast and a few others, including Shangguan Bo Wen, all locking their gaze onto the Heavenly Saint Taoist.

Somewhat relieved, Logan forced a smile, “You’re finally back, now I can rest easy. I’ve accomplished what I promised to you Demon Beasts. I guess I am at peace with myself.”

“You are the benefactor of our Demon Beast clan, and will be for the rest of your life. This time, we owe you a huge debt of kindness. No matter the price we have to pay in the future, if you Logan simply give the word, we the Hundred Million Demon Beasts in the Mountain Range will risk our lives to fulfill it.”

The Half-step Saint-level Demon Beast emotively sighed. He hadn’t thought Logan would go this far for the safety of the Beast King. Initially, their meeting was by mere chance and their so-called alliance was nothing more than you scratch my back, and I’ll scratch yours. He had never truly trusted Logan and his party. His only gratitude was for Logan’s law herbs.

However, this scene made him feel deeply embarrassed. He had measured the belly of a gentleman with his own mean yardstick. Logan was the true gentleman who risked his life to rescue them. Without Logan, the Heavenly Saint Taoist would have killed the Beast King long ago. He was a fool who forgot the crisis and was too busy flaunting his power.

Moving to one side on his own, Logan took out a Law Dan Medicine and consumed it. As he recuperated from his injuries, he replied, “I need to rest for a while. I am on my last legs. For the time being, you guys handle the situation. More than half an hour has passed already, and the Beast King will fully recover in three minutes.”

“Of course”, the Half-step Saint-level Demon Beast nodded, allowing Logan to rest and recover without any further complications. Protecting the Beast King was his own duty, and it was not for Logan to be fighting to the death. Logan had already done more than enough. If Logan’s cultivation path was hindered due to the injuries, he would be guilty for the rest of his life.

The Heavenly Saint Taoist sneered and looked at the group, “You all have been reminiscing for a while, isn’t it very disrespectful? It’s too overconfident. With me here, everyone will be buried in this lava field.”

At this point, he had seen it all. Within three minutes, it was impossible to kill everyone. The recovery of the Beast King was a done deal and he couldn’t turn the tide. His planning of a hundred years turned to be futile at this very moment, making him filled with rage. The only thought in his mind now was revenge.

Actually, he could have escaped. No one present could stop him. However, the Heavenly Saint Taoist understood that he was drawing his last breath with only a few years left to live. Even if he escaped, how long could he live in this world? He would rather enjoy a hearty day of revenge today and regard this as his heroic tomb.

Since he was destined to die, he could let it all out, “I, the Heavenly Saint Taoist, have had a glorious life, experiencing the long flow of time and bathing in the glory for ten thousand years. I have stepped on the so-called Sanctuary, but now in my life, I have never had such a humiliating defeat like these past few days. I have been repeatedly humiliated and now, even I’m trapped.”

“You brought it on yourself. Our Demon Beast clan did not have any enmity or grudge against you, but you stubbornly plotted against us, leading you to this step. If a hundred years ago, you weren’t coveting the Demonic Beast Treasure and focused more on cultivation, you might have already crossed the threshold of sainthood by now.”

The Half-step Saint-level Demon Beast disregarded him and sneered, “Sanctuary Powerhouse, it’s a pity you are unworthy of this realm. Not only do you lack any compassion, but you have also been exploiting human cultivators for many years often under false pretenses. For instance, under the guise of Closed-door Disciple, you have harmed countless people.”

Now, the Heavenly Saint Taoist only wanted to laugh and had no intention of quarreling. He boldly acted and revealed his unrivalled power, forcing Shangguan Bo Wen and others to retreat. It even resulted in a wound on the Half-step Saint-level Demon Beast.

Despite their concerted efforts with the Half-step Saint Seat Beast not caring about his own life and preparing to perish together with the Heavenly Saint Taoist, in the end, it was still too small to resist him. At this moment, they all felt a glimmer of despair. Was it possible that all their efforts had been in vain?

The Beast King opened his eyes, and the next moment, the surrounding space was chilled. An overwhelming aura was suppressing everything, making everyone dare not move, just like there is an equivalent to Mount Tai on their heads. Time seemed to slow down. The only thing that happened was the Beast King slowly stood up step by step.

While the Half-step Saint-level Demon Beast knelt down, “Welcome back, Beast King. After a hundred years, our demon beast clan can finally rise. We are no longer subjected to humiliation in this mountain range. My duty is finally fulfilled.”

The Beast King did not speak, but stared at the Heavenly Saint Taoist, his gaze filled with killing intent. It made the Heavenly Saint Taoist quite fearful. Before, they were both Saints, so naturally, he wasn’t afraid. But now, he was down to one-tenth of his original strength, facing a true Saint. The difference in strength between them was at least ten thousand times.

It’s certain that if they fought, within a few breaths, the Heavenly Saint Taoist would be annihilated by him. Initially, the Heavenly Saint Taoist was prepared for a decisive battle. But at this moment, he didn’t want to just perish. After all, if the Beast King could fully recover, why should he die?

The Beast King’s voice was calm but full of pressure, “Logan saved my life. Our hundred years of grievances inadvertently involved Logan. While I had no intention of killing today, you must pay the price. The hundred years of grievances will end today.”

“It’s too early to say anything. Don’t assume you have won.” The Heavenly Saint Taoist was scared yet he didn’t want to lose face. Meanwhile, he started to quietly prepare a spell, quickly conjuring up a door to the Void. The Beast King hadn’t been cautious. Suddenly, his entire being stepped into the Void and vanished.

The Half-step Saint-level Demon Beast wanted to pursue, but was stopped by the Beast King. Everything just now was an illusion. Although the Beast King’s injuries were healed, his cultivation hadn’t recovered to the Saint Realm. His current strength was only one-tenth of what it was before. It would take a few days for him to recover to the Saint’s seat.

Then, the Beast King turned to Logan, “Thank you. I saw everything that happened before. Although I was in deep sleep, my consciousness was clear. You not only contributed a Law Herb but also got yourself badly injured to protect me from the Heavenly Saint Taoist.”
