Condemning the Heavens

Chapter 489



Chapter 489: 489

The group slept soundly for a whole day . When they had arrived at the cave, it was dark outside, but when they woke up again, it was twilight . They had slept for a full twenty hours, and they felt full of energy again .

Their bodies were aching, the wounds were still there, but their minds were much clearer than before, and they felt Qi and Spiritual Energy roaming their bodies again .

Previously they had been depleted of strength, but now they could feel refreshed . They quickly found some healing pills that they placed in their mouths and sat down cross-legged and guided the energy through their bodies .

The wounds on their bodies began healing at a rapid pace, soon the skin was back to its original state, and the dull pain that had been troubling them was gone .

They stood up, stretched their bodies, and took a deep breath of relief . They felt much more refreshed and ready to continue their fight .

Looking around, they found that Lan was seated deeper into the cave, his eyes were closed, and he was resting . His face had a healthy color, and he seemed comfortable .

When he felt their gaze on him, he opened his eyes and smiled .

"I hope you had a good rest," he said . "I have some interesting news for you . "

Xue Wei and the others’ eyes lit up in excitement as they looked at Lan with curiosity .

"You are aware that there is a King ranked expert in this base . Well, congratulations, you have killed so many of his men, that he has exited the base and began patrolling the forest last night, planning on personally putting an end to you all . "

Xue Wei grimaced when he heard that, but then a strong urge to fight appeared in his heart . He wanted to fight against a King ranked expert, even if he could not win, he wanted to know how he fared .

Lan looked at Xue Wei and saw the burning eyes . He knew that this youngster was eager to test his skills, and he did not decline it . Although he had experienced a slight setback because of the Monarch Piranha Flower, he had not actually met someone who was as strong as he himself, and thus he had no way of actually going all out .

The King ranked experts were very different from Saints . They had spiritual bodies and were on the way towards becoming deities . They were not to be underestimated .

But Lan knew that he could keep Xue Wei alive, while still letting him try his hand against a King ranked expert and learning his own limits .

Xue Wei did not know that Lan had planned on taking the King ranked expert as a training dummy .

If he knew, he would be sweating slightly . Lan was truly heavy handed .

After finishing the rest, all of them prepared themselves, before they exited the cave and began moving towards the forest once more .

Their senses were on high alert, and they were extra cautious, knowing that a King ranked expert was roaming the forest .

Every other patrol had been called back, so they did not have to fear getting ambushed by anyone else, other than the King ranked expert, but they also understood that this man was their actual foe, so they were both excited and nervous . Although they were arrogant, they knew that there was a vast difference between a Saint and a King .

They were walking down an animal trail when Xue Wei suddenly felt an acute sense of danger . He dodged to the side, just in time to see a throwing knife embedded itself into the tree behind him .

Xue Wei felt cold sweat soaking his back; that knife throw was deadly!

"Well, well, well, so the ones who have caused such trouble for my military base proved to be a group of hairy youngsters . Although your strength is high, you are still merely Saints . To think you dare fight against my majesty at such levels, I do not know if it is bravery or stupidity . "

A drawling voice sounded, and all of them looked towards it, their eyes widened slightly when they saw that a middle-aged man was standing next to a tree, leaning against the trunk . They had not sensed him before, so his sudden appearance caused them to be on high alert, but they did not panic .

Seeing that they could keep themselves calm even when facing off against a King ranked expert, the man raised an eyebrow in surprise . They seemed genuinely talented .

Lan was standing aside, looking at them all with interest in his eyes . He had never thought they would encounter him so swiftly, but it was not a bad thing . Now Xue Wei could let go and try his all .

He raised his hand, and an invisible energy shrouded Xue Wei and the others without them noticing . The energy covered their internal organs and ensured that they would not die . However, they would still suffer greatly .

Lan was aware of the differences between a King and a Saint . It was just time for Xue Wei to realize it also .

Xue Wei smiled and felt happy; this was what he had been waiting for .

Inner Might!

A sword appeared in his hand, created from Qi . It looked like any other sword, slim and sharp, and the King ranked expert widened his eyes . What a useful technique!

Both of them stared at one another, and Xue Wei looked back at his friends . He was afraid that they would be injured, but he knew that he alone would not be the man’s opponent .

"Back me up, but keep safety as the main priority!" he gave his orders, and the others nodded their heads . A tense atmosphere descended over the forest .
