Treasure-hunting: Into the Unknown

Everyone was startled when they saw that the strangely shaped armor covered Zachary. It was emitting an aggressive aura that surrounded everyone in the vicinity. It exerted an intimidating pressure that made the ordinary people tremble. Furthermore, they could sense that the power it emanated was as powerful as Nathan's. However, after a brief moment of being in a stalemate, it was still obvious that Nathan's Sage Level power was stronger. Soon after, the nine ice dragons that were unleashed by Zachary were eventually swallowed by Nathan's giant whale. Immediately after, the giant whale dove from the sky and rushed straight to Zachary. This vicious creature made the surroundings tremble, creating panic and fear in the hearts of the people on the ground.

It was known that once the power at the Sage Level was released, it would inevitably generate wide-scale devastation within the area of hundreds to thousands of meters. Therefore, as the fierce battle between Nathan and Zachary broke out, everyone attempted to quickly retreat, avoiding getting caught in such a dangerous situation.

As the giant whale approached him rapidly, Zachary didn't seem to have any way to escape. However, his face still remained unusually calm. He just shook his Holy Bone Bracer and immediately formed a huge blue vortex above his head.

In a flash, the gigantic whale released its power that collided with the blue vortex. This power was then continuously devoured by the blue vortex.

However, with Zachary's current strength, it was impossible for the vortex he created to fully devour this tremendous amount of Sage Level power. His face turned pale as he gritted his teeth, and the martial energy in his body began to act wildly. But despite this desperate situation, he didn't have the slightest intention of backing off.

The people who witnessed this were appalled by the scene. They didn't expect that Zachary was tenacious enough to fight against Nathan's Sage Level power head-on with just his peak Imperial Level strength. This was supposed to be impossible, but Zachary had managed to stand his ground.

Upon seeing this, Nathan was more infuriated that his eyes were blazing in anger. He was frustrated that a warrior of a lower level could actually go against him. The next moment, he rose into the air again. With a flip of his palms, two more gigantic whales rushed out and soared in the air. They started expanding continuously and attempted to engulf Zachary.

In the blink of an eye, the three gigantic whales rammed Zachary's blue vortex at the same time. With the sudden increase of the power that he was absorbing, Zachary immediately spurted a mouthful of blood. His face was already deathly pale under the fierce bashing that he was experiencing. But even with the three ginormous whales simultaneously hammering Zachary with the ferocious Sage Level power, he still pushed forward. His eyes were still lit up, without any hint of giving up.

"Harley!" At the sudden turn of e

ely collected himself and got ready for a counterattack. Then, he waved his hand and instantly infused the Sage Level power that he had absorbed back to the bracer. In the blink of an eye, Zachary was able to discharge the same three giant whales that Nathan had. With this, the six immense whales collided with each other and produced an earth-shaking impact. Because of this, both Zachary and Nathan were forced to take several steps backward. As a result, the two ended in a stalemate again.

All the people present couldn't believe their eyes. Not only did Zachary block Nathan's Sage Level power, but he did it by acquiring Nathan's power and making it his own. This was definitely not something a warrior at the Imperial Level was capable of.

"You monster! How can you even withstand all of my attacks?!" Nathan was so exasperated that he shouted in pure resentment. As soon as his voice trailed off, a soul shadow suddenly appeared behind him. It was like a kelpie, which was about ten feet high. The light of water flowed all over its huge body. It didn't have a physical body, but instead, it was like a condensed form of liquid that emitted a terrifying aura at the Sage Level.

"What the hell? Is that a spiritual soul?!" "Not just any spiritual soul. It's a Sage Level spiritual soul!"

"It seems that Nathan's already determined to finish Zachary with this one."

"I think so too! Harley is so screwed!"

In the midst of the noise created by the spectators, the kelpie suddenly gave off a stream of water energy. Like a raging tidal wave, it rushed towards Zachary at an astonishing speed.

Discerning that it was something more powerful than the rest of Nathan's previous attacks, Zachary immediately released Gisele's spiritual soul and Andrew's Sage Soul power. As the shadows of the two spiritual souls appeared behind him, everyone in the audience was flabbergasted. They couldn't perceive how much more were they going to be surprised at what Zachary could actually do.
