The Legendary Man -
Chapter 703
The Legendary Man Chapter 703-Under normal circumstances, a cultivator's body was protected by their spiritual energy and sense, so their opponent's spiritual sense couldn't penetrate through the layers of shield easily.
However, the mysterious Adruinian's right arm was entirely exposed when Winston and Stellario checked him out using their spiritual sense.
That's a fake arm!
"Damn it!"
Seeing how the Black Serpent God he had raised for over twenty years died because of a fake arm, Stellario couldn't help but feel the rage boiling within his chest.
Blackie is one of my trump cards. There's no cure once someone is bitten by Blackie, yet it's dead just like that.
Stellario felt as if all his effort of raising the serpent had gone down the drain.
"I'm going to kill you to avenge Blackie!"
He thrust his right arm, prompting a multitude of parasites to envelop his body and launching him toward the top of the hill rapidly.
"Burning flames, please light up this cold night sky!"
The Adrunian man stood atop the hill and sounded as though he was muttering or chanting. As he brandished the staff in his hand, red-lined patterns glowed on the stick like flowing lava. The next moment, towering flames erupted.
The heatwave spread across the entire summit. Subsequently, Stellario's parasites fell onto the snowfield one after another after getting burned.
"Take this!" Winston yelled and forcefully swung the billhook in his hand.
A mighty sword energy dashed in the Adrunian man's direction, cutting the blazing flame into half and allowing Stellario to take a breather. "You're the man, Winston!" Stellario shouted at Winston.
Nevertheless, Stellario's body, covered in black insects, was still an unbearable sight to take in.
Over a hundred werewolves surrounded them while a seemingly endless army of werewolves continued pouring in from the hill.
The insects on Stellario's body fell to the ground one after the other. Those parasites required a stringent environment to survive. Once their spiritual energy supply was cut off, they would die shortly. Holding a knife, Stellario stood back to back with Winston.
"Winston, do you have any trump card left? Our enemies are outnumbering us by a large margin.”
Winston ignored Stellario. Instead, he turned to stare at the Adrunian man.
"Are you a wizard?"
"Wizard?" Stellario looked at Winston. "Is that a real thing? Are you sure you're not talking about a magician?"
Winston uttered solemnly, "They're real. We refer to the naturally-occurring energy as spiritual energy. In Adrune, this energy is called magic, while those from Jetroina termed this as vital energy. Since cultivators from different nations explored and utilized spiritual energy in different manners, multiple teachings were established. Wizards are the main spiritual energy users in Adrune."
The Adrunian man nodded with a smile after listening to Winston's description.
"The people from the mysterious country, Chanaea, are indeed experienced and knowledgeable. This is truly a little out of my expectation." He approached Stellario and Winston as he spoke. "Let me introduce myself. I am an Archmage from Rodunst, which is a rank equivalent to God Realm in your cultivation system. My name is Charleigh."
"Rodunst?" Winston frowned. "As far as I'm concerned, Rodunst and Remdik have always been hostile to one another, so why are you here?"
"It's a long story." Swarmed by the werewolves, Charleigh walked into the encirclement, seemingly taking a trip down memory lane. "The current society is no longer the same as the conservative imperial dynasty a few hundred years ago. We can't withstand the bombardment of a cannonball even after cultivating for decades. We now live in a technological era, and I've always wondered why we can't create a link between technology and cultivators. Therefore, I began carrying out a large number of experiments. However, these experiments seemed to have gone against the benefits of the aristocrats in Rodunst. Hence, I had no choice but to escape to Remdik."
Stellario was slightly dazed, listening to Charleigh.
"Experiment? What kind of experiment?"
"I dissected wizards to observe the changes in their bodies after they cultivated and compared the differences to a normal human being's body."
"Are you saying that you dissected living humans?" Stellario asked while staring at the gentle-looking man in bewilderment.
"What else could it be? How could I study the flow of magic if I dissected corpses?" Charleigh uttered righteously.
Stellario and Winston felt their scalps tingle.
They couldn't help but tighten their grips around the weapons in their hands.
In their opinion, dissecting living humans was a purely insane activity, regardless of the circumstances.
Members of the Mallory family were brutal, as they fancied implanting insects in their bodies.
Still, no matter how cruel they might be, their acts were directed at themselves. In comparison, Charleigh was no different from a lunatic. Although Charleigh didn't elaborate, it was apparent that he had kidnapped and experimented on numerous members of the aristocracy. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been hunted to the extent of having to flee to an enemy country to stay alive.
However, unbeknownst to Stellario and Winston, although most people couldn't accept Charleigh's worldview, there was an exception. Living a few thousand kilometers away inside Edenic Heights of Tayhaver in Chanaea, Jason, whose chest was covered in bandages, was electrocuting the cultivators sent by the Osborne family previously.
If Jason were made aware of Charleigh's existence, he would be determined to collaborate with the latter in all kinds of experiments no matter the challenges he had to take on.
"Others hunted you for messing around in Rodunst. Isn't there anyone who cares what you do in Remdik?" Stellario asked Charleigh with his brows knitted.
To him, Charleigh's doings were beyond inhumane.
The act of experimenting on a living person was as evil as the art of demonic cultivation as recorded in ancient books, which utilized the blood essence of living humans to cultivate.
"Not only do they not care about what I do, but I've also acquired enormous support," Charleigh chirped politely. "Take a look at your surroundings. These are all my creations. They are the perfect product after combining technology and cultivators. My medicine can allow cultivators in the Superior Realm to break through the restrictions of their limitations to become such formidable warriors."
Winston and Stellario glanced around as clarity washed over them.
At that instant, they finally knew how Remdik acquired so many beast-like cultivators.
Although there were individuals capable of temporarily transforming themselves into beasts in Chanaea, the conditions to do so were usually highly severe.
Some might even require the additional support of having suitable bloodlines.
However, in Remdik, werewolves flooded every corner of the nation.
And all of that was brought about by Charleigh.
Grandmaster Realm was a critical and transitional phase for cultivators.
Once a cultivator attained that level, they could manipulate the spiritual energy around them and become entirely free from the constraints faced by mortals. However, high-level cultivators like that were extremely rare.
Even the eight respectable families couldn't amass such a terrifying combat force with their solid foundation.
On the other hand, Superior Realm cultivators could be trained.
Any cultivators with sufficient high-quality cultivating resources could be promoted to Superior Realm regardless of their innate qualities.
If Charleigh's transformation technique was brought into play, Grandmasters could be mass-produced.
