Legendary Technique

Julius gazed at the two figures dressed entirely in red. From the words of one of them, Julius was certain that he was the target of their enemy. However, what he didn't understand was why these people were targeting him. He had tried to delve into his memory several times, but he couldn't recall ever having issues with anyone except the Young Master from the Starfall family.

"Who sent you?" Julius asked again, his voice cold.

"You don't need to know who we are. You just have to choose to come with us alive without resistance, or come with us lifeless if you try to resist," one of the masked men replied.

The masked man with the dragon mask seemed reluctant to answer Julius's question. Instead, he threatened the young man to either come with them without a fight or be killed. However, Julius seemed unaffected by the threat and showed no fear towards his adversaries.

"You can try if you're capable!" Julius retorted.

Julius's words truly surprised both masked individuals and even their four companions. Given Julius's current abilities, which were far inferior to those of his two opponents, such words could provoke anger that could potentially endanger his life. Although his four companions knew that Julius possessed a legendary seal capable of withstanding any attack, it was uncertain whether he could continuously maintain that seal at his current level of cultivation.

Blammmmm!

One of the enemies who had spoken to Julius attacked again. He used the same technique but with increased power to its peak. However, the attack still yielded no results. The powerful strike of the enemy couldn't penetrate the shield created by Julius. Although this time it didn't disappear but caused an explosion, the one affected by the blast was the attacker himself. The man in red clothes was thrown several spears away from his position.

"Damn!" The man in red cursed loudly at what had happened to him.

"Brother Lion, use the forbidden sword technique!" shouted the other man in red.

The person called Brother Lion nodded and then jumped several steps backward. He then clasped his hands in front of his chest and began reciting something. Instantly, his body emitted a black light.

"The Forbidden Technique: Soul-Eating Demon Sword"

The man called Brother Lion, dressed in red, shouted the name of the sword technique he was using. Suddenly, a giant black sword appeared above his head. The sword emitted a terrifying dark power.

"We're done for," murmured Dorian Star after seeing the impending attack from the enemy.

The Forbidden Technique: Soul-Eating Demon Sword was indeed well-known among cultivators. This technique was the main technique used by members of the demon sect. Usually, only the main members of the demon sect mastered it. At the very least, they were elite warriors.

 Julius himself had prepared. Although he didn't know the type of power the enemy's attack possessed, the young man remained vigilant. This time, he prepared the time-stopping technique he possessed. Julius was worried that the seal shield technique he had might not be able to withstand the enemy's attack.

"Haaaaa!"

The man surnamed Lion shouted loudly and began to attack. The giant sword moved swiftly towards Julius. The sword directly struck the shield Julius was using. If Julius were at a higher realm, he wouldn't have to worry about the enemy's attack hitting him.

True to form, the enemy's attack successfully destroyed Julius's shield. Fortunately, at that moment, Julius managed to use the time-stopping technique, allowing him to escape from the scene. Julius also managed to move his friends from their location, ensuring that none of them were affected by the enemy's attack.

"Damn! How could they evade that attack? Especially when the only one left with energy is that damn kid. And it feels like he doesn't even have a chance to dodge," the man dressed in red from the Hellfire family was truly infuriated.

"We should attack that kid together. Although he doesn't have high enough abilities to face us, he's slippery enough to be subdued."

"You're right, Brother Lucius. We don't have much time left, so we better eliminate that kid together."

After two failed attempts to attack Julius, the two assailants finally decided to descend together. Knowing this, Galen Blackthorn and the three academy students from the Earth Dragon Tower group immediately felt anxious. Their faces turned pale. Not a single one of them, including Julius, was capable of matching up against them, let alone both of them intervening.

But unlike Julius, the young man appeared remarkably calm. There was no trace of worry or fear on his face. Even though he himself didn't know how to act against the enemy, Julius was confident that his time wasn't up yet to meet his end there.

"The Combined Technique: Soul-Eating Demon Sword!"

Once again, a black sword appeared above the heads of the two masked individuals. Although its size was not as massive as the previous attack, its power was three times stronger. Thunderbolts were seen flickering from the sword. It was a truly formidable combined technique.

Realizing that avoiding was not the best way to face the enemy, Julius prepared to perform the sword seal technique he had prepared to match the enemy's strength. Moreover, he couldn't perform time-stopping in such a close range from before. His power and physical body were still very limited, so he couldn't use his abilities to their fullest.

"The Thunder God's 9 Swords Technique!"

Julius yelled, invoking the name of his family's signature technique. This time, Julius didn't use the techniques he had learned at the Tower of the Gods Academy. The young man was worried that he only mastered high-level techniques in theory at the Tower of the Gods Academy, but couldn't practice them like what happened before during Master Duano's lessons.

This sword technique itself was a secret technique of the Tiberius family that was feared by opponents. In the last 50 years, no member of the Tiberius family had mastered it. It was a technique that combined the power of the Sword Spirit and the lightning element attack technique.

Suddenly, in front of Julius, 9 sword blades appeared in a semi-circle around him. The swords emitted a purple lightning that flickered. The ground beneath them trembled violently.

"How could that kid master the legendary technique of the almost extinct Tiberius family?" Someone stood floating in the distance, observing the battle scene protected by a sealing spell.
