Chapter 318 - 184: King-level Arrival, the Killer Chu Batian
When Jack thought about whether Ilisa was an Evil God Sect member, he already had an answer in his heart.
That mysterious fellow was probably an Evil God Sect Cultist.
However, Jack hesitated about whether to turn back or not.
Because he did not feel any malice or murderous intent from Ilisa, neither did she have the bloody, evil aura that Blood God Cultists could hardly conceal. She was just like a normal cultivator.
Even more, she had given pointers to Jane Aiken about the path of thought.
That was why Jack hesitated.
In fact, the so-called Evil God Sect is collectively called the Divine Sect Alliance in the mythical world. Every sect has a king-level existence sitting at the helm, who proclaim themselves as gods.
All these sects are formed by strong men who have defected from the Human Race, but not all of them are enemies of the Human Race.
Only a few opposing sects, who often send people to sneak in and cause trouble, are called Evil God Sects.
For example, the Blood God, the Giant God, and the Shadow sects are closely aligned with the Purgatory Demon Race. Their territories are completely dependent on the Purgatory Family, acting as their lapdogs.
As for the other sects, some have different ideologies, some just want to enjoy being gods, and some have their own reasons.
Jack found this information after Koroya returned to the school and was promoted.
However, the information he saw was limited, as he didn’t know the titles of all the sects, the names of the kings or their power in the mythical world.
After a brief pause, Jack turned around and rushed towards the depths of the Cloud Mist Mountain Range.
Considering the advice the mysterious person had given him the night before, Jack decided to leave Ilisa alone for the time being and kill some invading Blood God Cultists first.
As for Jane Aiken’s safety, he didn’t have to worry.
Because he was sure that Ilisa held no malice towards Jane, and sometimes, when Ilisa glanced at Jane unintentionally, her eyes would momentarily show gentleness.
At that time, Jack had almost thought she was Jane’s long-lost sister.
As for reporting Ilisa’s whereabouts… there was no signal.
Boom!
Jack’s speed suddenly exploded in the forest, reaching 300 meters per second. Because he was so fast, a long white wave trail was left in his wake.
His speed was entirely due to his immense strength, unlike cultivators who practiced agility-based Cultivation Methods that could eliminate air resistance and achieve instantaneous explosion.
This made his movements appear very grand.
Wherever he passed, trees and grass in the forest were uprooted, and even some trees over ten meters high were directly broken by his violent wind wave, making him seem incredibly overbearing.
He had no choice; those teachers had already entered the mountains, so if he were any slower, he might not be able to catch any of the enemy cultivators.
As Jack approached the location they were dropped off, someone else was closing in from another direction.
“Late-stage Fifth Layer Heaven, a peak Evil God Sect Cultist!” Howard Lee looked at the message on his wristwatch, and a wild battle intent emerged in his eyes.
Compared to a week ago, he seemed much stronger now, as if possessed by a demon.
Suddenly, Howard’s gaze shifted downward, as a golden-red light soared through the Vast Wilderness Forest below, like a sharp sword.
Boom! Trees and grass went flying everywhere as Jack halted abruptly more than ten meters away. The raging wind whistled around him: “Howard Lee.”
Jack was somewhat surprised, not expecting to run into anyone he knew in the mountain.
At this moment, Howard was wearing a set of blood-red heavy battle armor, with barbs on each of his joints and sharp, outward-curving beast heads on his shoulders.
In addition, the sharp horns of a Unique Beast curved behind his double shoulders, making him resemble an ancient warrior.
Most importantly, the battle armor emitted a faint glow.
Besides, the weapon he carried on his shoulder – four meters long and thicker than his thigh, wrapped with dark red dragon patterns – also emitted a red glow.
With the strong scent of a Unique Beast’s blood on him, it seemed Howard had grown quite a lot during this time.
Howard spoke solemnly, “Jack, you also received the signal of Evil God Sect elites invading. It looks like you’re planning to go into the mountains and hunt down those guys?”
“That’s right.”
“Hold on, are you also interested in the heads of those cultists?”
“A little.”
Jack shook his head: “I suggest you don’t go, those guys may be injured and in the late period of Fifth Layer Heaven or at the peak, but they are still powerful.”
“As old Sixth Heavenly Layer Experts, they can at least leapfrog one Minor Realm, even reaching the Early Sixth Heaven. If you go there, you might be killed instantly.”
Howard felt a little unconvinced: “Aren’t you also in Fourth Layer…”
Before he could finish, a domineering and terrifying aura emanated from Jack, shaking the surrounding air while faint dragon roars and elephant trumpeting echoed in the void.
In an instant, Howard’s mouth gaped wide open, and shock spread across his face.
What’s going on? Wasn’t he just in the Early Stage of Fourth Layer Heaven a week ago? How was he suddenly in Fifth Layer Heaven now!?
“This is my confidence,” Jack smiled, pleased with Howard’s shock. Then, his figure burst through the air and continued to rush into the depths of the mountain range, leaving a trail of raging wind behind him.
As Jack disappeared into the forest depths, leaving behind a violent wind wave, Howard couldn’t help but rub his cheeks, doubting whether he was hallucinating.
A whole Major Realm raised in just over a week? Had he stumbled upon some top-tier resources, like those for raising realms?
It seemed his agreed-upon battle with Jack would have to be postponed; after all, his current cultivation realm was being suppressed and he was definitely no match for him now.
Yes, Jack now had a higher Major Realm than him. Although his own battle power was great, Jack was not weak either.
Thinking of this, Howard regained some confidence and his spirits lifted.
Soon, Jack entered the middle section of the Cloud Mist Mountain Range. The fog density here was even higher, and the chances of encountering Space Cracks were also greater..
