......
"Prepare the altar!" ordered Elder Zhi after ’checking’ the package.
The Voidwalker Elder of the Nightfall Tribe behind him nodded silently before going to prepare for the said ritual. This was sothing that they had already done quite a lot of tis, so they were very familiar with the entire process.
Even though they were still quite confused and curious about what the deal the Great Ancestor of the Voidwalkers had with the mysterious leader of the Black Serpent Mafia, they still had to comply with the orders that were given to them.
Belladonna was still quite wary of them, especially after learning a bit about the ’vessel’ that they had in them. Based on how it sounded, it seed to be a bit more important compared to the Golden Nirvana Pill that one of the ’heads’ had brought from sowhere.
She then gestured with her hand, signaling those behind her to proceed as well. The agents then closed the lids of the small box containing the Golden Nirvana Pill and the coffin where the vessel was laid.
...
In the distance, after seeing that the opposing side was on the move, Shin and the others could not help but make so responses.
"Are we going to wait for them to set up the so-called ritual and strike at the most crucial ti to sabotage them?" asked Leonard while turning to his master.
The others also turned behind them, waiting for instructions.
But to their surprise, Joaquin did not imdiately respond to the question and turned toward the Venerable Realm ntalist instead.
This simple gesture made everyone realize that the identity of this ntalist expert was much higher than they had expected.
Given the simple action from Joaquin, they could tell that the one with the highest authority within the group was actually this mysterious ntalist.
With such a clue, how could the seniors not figure out the true strength of this person? If it were soone with higher authority than Joaquin, who was supposed to be one of the strongest Domain Realm Experts throughout the world, then the strength of this mysterious ntalist should not be any lower than that.
This ntalist should be at least as strong as a half-step Exalted Realm ntalist.
’Soone from the Elder’s Council? Or an Elder from the Academy?’ thought Benedict.
The mysterious ntalist swept his gaze at everyone before shaking his head. "There is no need to wait that long and make it so complicated. We will strike them now."
He then stepped forward and walked toward the window, seemingly intending to jump out of it.
"I will deal with that elder from the Void Tribe. Joaquin, you keep the other two Domain Realm Level Experts busy. The kids will handle the rest," he gave out simple instructions before walking out of the window and stepping into the air.
He calmly walked in the air with a steady pace and unhurried manner. It looked like he was going for a casual walk with how calm he moved.
At the sa ti, a familiar voice suddenly sounded inside Shin’s head. "Brat, watch carefully. I will show you a glimpse of how you are supposed to use my ntalism thod."
"Eh!?" Shin could not help but be a bit stunned after hearing that voice. "Teacher?"
Right after raising his head, he saw that the ntal Energy around the supposedly mysterious ntalist fluctuated for a mont before moving like a curtain of light.
Swoosh!
The movent of the ntal Energy slowly faded the illusion technique that was covering the body of the ntalist, uncovering his disguise.
This ti, instead of a regular bodyguard in a professional outfit and quite fit body, a plump figure was slowly unveiled before everyone’s eyes.
It was an old fatty where a set of loose Taoist robes.
"It’s Grandmaster Benn!"
The other was also able to figure out the identity of this ntalist right away after seeing his appearance.
Seeing that Grandmaster Benn was about to act, Joaquin quickly turned to the kids and issued a series of commands, making arrangents for them.
He then jumped out of the window as well and headed toward their opponents.
...
In the distance, the two Voidwalker Elders and Belladonna could not help but halt their tracks after sensing an unfamiliar presence appearing out of nowhere.
They quickly put their guards up, especially when the other party had suddenly appeared within the vicinity without their notice.
Elder Zhi was even more wary, especially when he had already scanned the surroundings with his abilities earlier and kept them active all the ti. He had not found any signs of any intruder up until now, which could even one thing – the opposing party was equally strong as him at the very least.
Moreover, their skills should not be that weak as well, especially when they could hide their presence from him, who was a Voidwalker Elder from the Void Tribe and specialized in all spatial thods.
Swoosh!
While they were turning, the three sensed a powerful attack coming straight to them.
Belladonna swiftly summoned a bunch of vines, which quickly wrapped themselves around the coffin containing the vessel and the agent who was holding the small box with the Golden Nirvana Pill.
Elder Zhi, on the other hand, casually gazed toward the incoming attack before summoning a barrier by bending the space with his thoughts.
BOOM!
An explosion imdiately erupted when the attack collided with the spatial barrier. But it did not cause that much damage.
The power of the attack was not that powerful. It seed to be a probing attack ant to test the waters.
When everything had settled, everyone finally saw the person who launched that attack.
When Belladonna saw the plump figure in a loose Taoist robe, her expression suddenly turned solemn. She was able to instantly recognize that person due to their noticeable features.
Given that she was from an underworld organization, it was quite normal for her to know the appearance of all the people with utmost importance around the world and those powerful once that they could not afford to provoke when doing their mission.
"Grandmaster Benn of the Elder’s Council," she said in a low voice.
Hearing her words, Grandmaster Benn turned his gaze to her before nodding. "It seems like you know how to do your assignnt, little girl."
But he quickly turned his gaze away from her, before turning to Elder Zhi. "Don’t feel too tense. I am not here for you."
Elder Zhi squinted his eyes while looking at the opposing party, especially when he could feel an imnse threat coming from the latter. Just looking at this old man was enough to remind of the Chieftain of the Void Tribe.
"This man is dangerous," he said before waving his hand, stopping the Elder from the Nightfall Tribe from making any move. "You are not his match. Let deal with him. The rest of you, retreat."
After saying that, he started floating in the air, rising to the sa height as Grandmaster Benn.
The two did not make any move and just stared at one another, seemingly waiting for those from the Voidwalker Tribes and Black Serpent Mafia to retreat on purpose.
"Soone from the Elder’s Council?" asked Elder Zhi after a while.
Grandmaster did not answer directly and just said. "It has been a while since I’ve faced a Voidwalker. You co at the perfect ti since I’ve been wanting to test my newly perfected thod for a while now."
"Let see what you got then," smirked Elder Zhi before waving his hand.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
This seemingly casual movent caused a series of reactions from the surroundings. The surrounding space seed to solidify with his hand gesture.
This restricted all kinds of movents within it.
This was one of the Spatial Manipulation Techniques of the Voidwalkers from the Void Tribe, the Space Freezing.
However, this kind of power could not completely stop soone at Grandmaster Benn’s level.
Snap! Snap!
A series of crispy sounds reverberated throughout the place, followed by the appearance of multiple cracks within the solidified space.
A mont later, he saw multiple runes appearing around Grandmaster Benn, floating in the air. They ford a link and beca a complicated series of runes before revolving around the latter.
Grandmaster Benn was not even moving, yet these runes were appearing on their own and forming an array by themselves.
Shin, who was watching this from a distance, could not help but mumble. "Using the thought as the guide – writing through one’s thoughts as a pen, ntal Energy as the ink, and nature as the paper."
A mont later, he saw a series of arrays forming around Grandmaster Benn before proceeding to beco a Grand Formation.
But they did not just stop at forming a single Grand Formation and continued to produce more until finally creating five Grand Formations.
During the formation of these Grand Formations, the two elders did not go idle either.
Elder Zhi naturally knew that he could not let Grandmaster Benn produce those formations. He launched a series of attacks during the process, manipulating the space around him and solidifying them.
Huge pillars made of solidified space suddenly appeared behind him, which quickly rained down at Grandmaster Benn with a gesture of his hand.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Those powerful pillars seed to be unstoppable and very destructive. The space wherever they passed seed to crumble, leaving small spatial fissures behind them.
However, before they could even reach their target, runes after runes flew toward them. So wrapped themselves around the pillars and restricted their movents, others crushed themselves and bombarded these pillars, while the rest ford a blockade that prevented them from advancing further.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Boom!
Consecutive explosions filled the air due to the collisions between these spatial pillars and ntalism runes.
Roar!
Not long after, deafening roars suddenly filled the air.
Looking over, Elder Zhi saw that the five Grand Formations had finally finished their formation. The Voidwalker Elder then saw five divine beasts made of ntalism runes rise behind Grandmaster Benn while glaring at him with full ferociousness.
Grandmaster Benn stood in the air before these five divine beasts while letting his loose Taoist robes flap along with the wind.
He looked like a mighty figure while looking down haughtily on all existence underneath his feet.
