Treasure-hunting: Into the Unknown

Seeing that Zachary was walking straight towards him without any hesitation, Louis was kind of startled. He immediately waved the Cyan Snake Stick in his hand with all his strength. At the same time, Zachary condensed his ice blade. However, since his strength was greatly enhanced, the ice blade, which originally looked like an ordinary weapon, had turned into a huge saber. With just a casual wave, a humongous shadow of the ice saber rushed out and slashed towards Louis. As the two forces collided, a deafening sound was created. However, Louis' stick was hit hard. It suffered a backlash, making his arm feel extremely numb.

When he realized that Zachary's Sage Level power was much stronger than his, Louis' face became more livid. He couldn't believe that he was being overwhelmed. Wasting no time, he stomped his feet on the ground and stepped back to maintain his distance against Zachary. At the same time, he stretched out his hands and unleashed countless wooden thorns that appeared in the air. At his signal, all of them fell from the sky, like torrential rain.

Boom! Boom!

These countless wooden thorns rained over and bombarded Zachary. At the same time, the martial energy emitted from these thorns flashed a bright blue light.

Just after a brief moment, Zachary's figure was submerged in this blue light.

"Prepare yourself! This place shall be your graveyard!" Louis sneered as he saw that his plan was gradually working.

But unexpectedly, a beam of ice light suddenly broke out from the blue light. At the same time, a giant flaming ice-like blade also emerged and instantly pounced on Louis.

When Louis saw this turn of events, the smirk on his face was instantly wiped off. He immediately called forth his Sacred Dragon King to act as a shield. The wood light all over its body expanded and transformed into a defensive barrier that protected Louis.

Boom!

An earth-shaking rumble echoed throughout the skies as the forces crashed. Right after the flaming ice blade rammed through the protective barrier, streaks of light dispersed and illuminated the area within a hundred-meter radius. The strong wave of martial energy continued to spread in all directions and the residual forces flashed continuously.

Since the two opposing sides were in a stalemate, the chaotic emergence of forces gradually subsided.

"Well done, Sacred Dragon King! Let's teach this arrogant bastard a lesson. We're going to work together and eliminate him!" Louis praised his treasure beast as he quickly regained his confidence. He was elated that the power of his treasure beast could block Zachary's Sage Level attacks. With a grin on his face, his eyes opened wide. He then shouted, "Beast Merging Skill!"

Immediately after, the Sacred Dragon King emitted bright blue light. In an instant, a dragon-shaped flaming shadow flew out. As Louis activated the skill, he integrated his strength into the dragon shadow. Then, the shadow con

"It's not over yet! This is the final strike. Take this!" A devious smile appeared on Zachary's face as he stared down at Louis. Immediately after, a huge beast shadow appeared from above, covering the bright sky. It opened its monstrous mouth and blasted out a pillar of light that was as bright as the sun. It rushed towards Louis, who was currently being suppressed by the giant shadows on the ground.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Three extremely powerful forces exploded at the same time. The earth shook atrociously and a huge cloud of mushroom rose in the air immediately after, covering the sky within hundreds of meters. As the smoke gradually dissipated, it was seen that the ground sank for several meters, and the huge chunks of rocks were diminished due to the massive impact of Zachary's attack.

After quite some time, the dust finally settled and the air became clearer. Then, a figure emerged with clothes almost burned up. He was lying on the ground with his entire body covered with dust, and it seemed like his limbs were badly damaged.

At the same time, an ice shadow with an overwhelming aura walked up to the figure on the ground and stared down at him with a flash of cold eyes.

"Impossible… Did I lost? Never! I have never lost a battle!" Louis raised his head and looked at Zachary with overflowing despair and disdain in his eyes. "Come here! I'm going to kill you!" he screamed furiously, like a mad man who had gone out of control.

At this moment, Zachary's attacking energy had also started to fade. His Sage Level Mode had almost reached its limit, but he somehow hesitated on how he would deal with Louis. However, as he was still lost in his thoughts, a malevolent aura suddenly appeared from behind him and a force full of murderous intent quickly rushed towards him. It was as if this person was patiently waiting to deal a fatal blow, taking advantage of the moment when Zachary's strength was about to disintegrate.
