As he spoke, his gaze swept toward Clane, who was standing at the side. He had a sudden realization and guessed that Ron and the others had already known many things. He paused and explained briefly.
“Later, Edward and I joined forces with a few others to break out of the encirclement, but… more and more people came to kill us. In the chaotic intense battle, Edward… he was seriously injured and died.”
After hearing this, everyone fell silent.
In fact, they had more or less guessed this situation… However, after having confirmed it, they could not accept it for a while.
Especially Harris and Ron, who were filled with grief and fury. Everything from the past appeared before their eyes…
Edward was a friend who had gone through thick and thin with Harris, and he had also helped the Nicholas family. Ron had always remembered this favor, and he also knew that the other party had intervened to repay the favor of saving his life, but he could not ignore such deep love.
During the short period that Harris and the others were staying with them, Ron and Edward had already formed a deep friendship, so he immediately stepped forward when he learned they were in danger.
In the end… he was too late.
Ron’s expression was cold, and the killing intent in his eyes was obvious. He looked up at the dozen or so Great Archmagi below, who had besieged Leonard earlier, and his voice was as cold as ice.
“Did they kill him?!”
“Yes!” Leonard was extremely indignant. He stretched out his hand and pointed at a level-8 Great Archmage. “He was the one who killed him!!”
The expression of the gray-haired old man, who had been pointed out, changed drastically. He shouted in panic, “I…”
A ball of flames suddenly appeared above the person’s head. In an instant, it was about to descend and surround him. Powerful energy radiated from the old man’s body. He wanted to flee quickly, but the flames followed closely behind and instantly engulfed him!
“Ahhhh—”
Amidst the screams, the person’s protective magical power was swallowed by the flames. In the blink of an eye, the person disappeared completely from the world.
His physical body and soul were all gone!
A level-8 Great Archmage had actually died just like that, and his body and spirit had been annihilated!!
This scene frightened the people beside him so much that they could no longer stand still. They all knelt down and begged for mercy. “Please spare our lives!”
“This, all this has nothing to do with me… I didn’t…”
“Senior, please spare my life! I’m willing… Ah!”
“No… I ahhh!”
“Ahhh—”
As some were begging for mercy and some were fighting with their lives on the line, the ring of flames around them suddenly shrank and instantly swallowed everyone!
Their screams which sounded like wailing ghosts were mixed together. In just seconds, they turned into ashes and scattered with the wind…
All the flames that had been burning with crackling sounds obediently converged into a cluster and swept back into Ron’s hand. With a whoosh, they scattered into stars and vanished in front of everyone.
A pile of storage magical tools was in Ron’s hand. As for the plunderers earlier, they had completely disappeared from the world.
Leonard and the other three, who had witnessed all of this with their own eyes, were so shocked that their eyeballs almost fell out.
Even Harris, Kadun, Holken, and Karuman could not help but exclaim in their hearts, “Has he become stronger?!”
Compared to the combat strength he had displayed in the battle of return a few days ago, the ultimate flame technique in front of them was terrifyingly powerful!
The members of the Nicholas family clan were so terrifying! They had become stronger again!!
Until now, most people still felt that this Strange Sacred Flame was actually a magical power they had never heard of or seen before. Some guessed that it was a high-grade divine-tier magical power, while others guessed it was even higher.
Among the ten-odd people on the flying ferry, only Dick knew that Ron had already activated the Flame Sacred Body, so he was naturally more powerful than before when using the Strange Sacred Flame.
Ron turned to look at Leonard and the others. Just as he was wondering if he should bring them out first, he suddenly sensed that something was wrong.
Everyone’s expression changed drastically as they looked up at the tall mountain not far away.
Buzz! Buzz!
The trembling sound of metal and stone resounded throughout the world, and a beam of golden sacred light shot into the sky!
At the same time, an extremely powerful aura of a magical weapon swept out!
It was a Sacred Tool!!
At this moment, the eyes of the ten-odd people on the flying ferry lit up.
Sacred Tool!
And it was even a medium-grade Sacred Tool!!
In the dazzling holy light, there was a Sacred Tool in the shape of a gourd. It seemed to be fleeing. As soon as it appeared, it immediately flew directly toward the exit, or rather, the entrance to the mystic realm!
Previously, Clane had told them that the Sacred Tool that the first group of people had seen when they came in was a low-grade Sacred Tool in the shape of a flying shuttle. At that time, it had also flown out. It was not known who had snatched it in the end.
But now, another medium-grade Sacred Tool had actually appeared in this mystic realm!
The Sacred Tool was extremely fast. It flew directly toward the exit. Dozens of figures flew out from the treasure mountain it had appeared in. Clearly, these people were all here to snatch sacred tools.
On the flying ferry, everyone’s eyes were fixed on the Sacred Tool. A fanatical expression appeared on their faces, even Leonard and the other three, who had just escaped death.
Sacred weapon! Sacred weapon! This is a sacred weapon!!
It was a sacred weapon that most Great Archmagi would not be able to possess in their lifetime!
If a Great Archmage could possess a sacred weapon, his or her strength would immediately increase by several times, and they would be able to easily kill enemies of a higher level. Even if he did not need it, he would be able to exchange it with others, and with other factions, and he could also exchange it for countless magical cultivation resources!
Especially Kadun and Holken, the magical power in their bodies had already faintly vibrated, and they were about to charge out uncontrollably!
However, they had not received the order, so they could only panic in their hearts and look at Ron and Dick…
It was only then that they realized that Ron and Dick were not looking at the flying sacred weapon but at the mountain peak on the side, where the sacred weapon had emerged.
Ron and Dick exchanged a look and nodded in unison.
Then, Ron said to Karuman and the others, “Brother and I are going there to take a look. You guys ride on the flying ferry and wait for us.”
Upon hearing this, the others were stunned for a moment before they understood.
It was not that these two were not tempted, but they had wanted more and better treasures!
After some thought, it could be understood that since a medium-grade Sacred Tool had emerged, there must be more and better treasures inside! There might even be the inheritance of the Divine Mage!!
However, at the same time, they also knew that it must be extremely dangerous inside. It was not just the abode itself, but also the powerful Magi who were snatching treasures!
As such, even though they knew that there might be more and better treasures inside, the others did not dare to risk their lives.
Now that Ron had given them the flying ferry, not only would it protect them, they might also be able to snatch other treasures.
In just a few seconds, the Holy Light Treasure Gourd had already dodged the interception of many Great Archmagi and rushed to the exit of the mystic realm. Then, it plunged into the spatial vortex and left in a flash!
