Treasure-hunting: Into the Unknown

Zachary had planned to cultivate in seclusion for a few days. That way he could completely focus on refining the three Cultivation Boosting Pills. Hence, after class he requested for a three-day leave from Parker by quoting a minute excuse.

As soon as he finished his request, he heard someone shout out, "Harley, someone's looking for you!"

Zachary was curious and wondered who could be looking for him. So he turned back and saw a disciple at the Heaven Level who was from the Shura College waving at him. Immediately he went over to the disciple.

"Master Tracy asked me to take you to her. She has something important to talk to you," the disciple informed Zachary, as he stood reverently.

"Alright then. Let's go." Although Zachary immediately followed the disciple, he observed that the disciple looked nervous about something. However, Zachary decided to stay mum and proceeded on. Soon, he left the weapon refining room with the disciple.

They walked through several paths, while making a few turns. Promptly, Zachary was brought to a very remote area. A strange building loomed in front of them. The building was unlike any other building Zachary had seen. Apart from the gate, the huge square-shaped building was devoid of any form of windows.

"Let us go inside." Saying this, the disciple pushed the gate open and stepped inside.

Zachary nodded and followed the disciple, despite having a strange feeling about the place.

Right after Zachary followed the disciple inside the building, the gate suddenly slammed shut. Instantly, the room was engulfed in darkness.

At the same time, the disciple, who was standing in front of Zachary, disappeared.

Despite the sudden turn of events, Zachary continued to stay calm. He formed the energy fire from one of his palms, and soon the entire building was lit instantly. The place was empty, making it looking like some sort of training ground.

"This place is ideal for a good bout of jostle. Come out in the open now! No point in hiding!" Zachary called out, while searching around.

Suddenly, a figure that seemed to have integrated with the darkness appeared on his right side. It stood about three meters away from Zachary. It possessed such a pair of vicious eyes that it seemed like it would instantly swallow him.

Zachary instantly pushed the energy fire towar

owerfully blocked the killer's attack.

"Looks like you're not that bad, huh!" Actually the killer was fully aware that it would not be an easy task to bring down Zachary. So before Zachary could take a breather, the killer was already about to attack him again. With his martial energy, a strong cyclone was formed. Instantly, the cyclone became violent by the minute.

Seeing that the situation was getting out of hand, Zachary started to retreat. However, the enclosed building was not large enough, and the power of the killer was increasing by the minute. They had been in a gridlock for a while. Due to the intense suction force of the wind, Zachary's avoiding speed was largely affected. Soon, he was thrown into the air.

At this time, the wind stopped, and the killer jumped into the air. While Zachary was in a dangerous situation where he seemed unable to avoid the attack from the killer, the killer swirled his left fist. Soon, the wind took the shape of a horn and directly hit Zachary's body.

Zachary was unable to resist the attack and was suddenly sent flying backward.

Bang!

As Zachary crashed, a cloud of dust stirred up and everything went eerily silent. For an outsider, it would have seemed the impact killed both the parties.

"I can knock you down with one single strike!" A sneer appeared on the killer's face.

Just when the killer started to walk towards Zachary, Zachary suddenly rushed out of the smoke. Taking advantage of the moment of the killer's carelessness, Zachary held a sword and went straight to the killer.
