Chapter 731

Chapter 731 Sword Energy Attack His finger, infused with spirit fire, exerted nearly the utmost strength his physical body could muster.

Yet, in the face of Harlan’s left arm, it proved utterly ineffective.

A lone severed arm wielded such formidable might; the thought of the ghost clan successfully resurrecting the complete Divine Revenant was staggering.

The potential magnitude of such power was unfathomable–so immense that even Mount Kushburn might crumble under its force.

A hint of concern began to take root in Emrys‘ heart.

Perhaps it was the influence of his five years in the military that set Emrys apart from other cultivators, not solely preoccupied with personal pursuits.

The word “patriotism” had been etched deep into his bones, a sentiment reflected in the esteemed title of “Empyrean Lord” that he bore with utmost honor.

Consequently, Emrys was resolute in preventing a menacing force like the Divine Revenants from unleashing chaos in Chanaea.

He must thwart the ghost clan’s plan.

But how?

He contemplated capturing Harlan to see whether he could force the latter to divulge the secrets regarding the heart of the Divine Revenants.

When Simeon was talking about their clan’s plan earlier, he had emphasized that the key to reviving the Divine Revenants rested in their heart.

As long as that crucial organ was obliterated, the resurrection of the Divine Revenants would be thwarted.

However, Simeon did not know where that heart was located back then.

More than two decades had elapsed since then, raising the possibility that the other three Soul Kings might have discovered the heart in the meantime.

Looks like I’ll have to interrogate Harlan.

Emrys‘ mind raced, a whirlwind of thoughts cascading through his consciousness. Turning to Yelena, who was about to rush forward and assist him, he uttered, “Lena, I’m fine. Please stay back. I must defeat Harlan today no matter what.”

Chapter 731 Sword Energy Attack Yelena came to a sudden stop, her expression fraught with concern, but she obediently nodded nonetheless.

She found herself powerless to aid Emrys in any way and could only retreat.

At this juncture, Harlan was equally taken aback.

His left arm failed to reduce Emrys to rubble.

The force unleashed had the potential to pulverize a cultivator at the absolute pinnacle of the Golden Elixir Stage into a mist of blood.

Nevertheless, despite Emrys being repelled and even coughing up blood, Harlan found himself far from satisfied with this outcome.

It shouldn’t have ended up like this! It was because of that finger!

Harlan narrowed his eyes, carefully examining Emrys‘ crimson–red index finger.

It was this very finger that had unleashed the burst of spirit fire, successfully dispersing most of the power from Harlan’s left arm.

If only that finger could be attached to my right hand…

Harlan’s gaze suddenly intensified, a fiery passion kindling within him. Licking his lips, he remarked, “Today, fortune has undeniably smiled upon me. First, the gift of soul energy from Simeon, and now, you, Sky Devourer Lord, have bestowed upon me a finger. I must genuinely express my gratitude to you both.”

Harlan sneered menacingly.

He reveled in the exhilaration of his surging power.

Simultaneously, madness inundated him.

Harlan couldn’t resist the curiosity about the potential consequences of merging the finger, infused with spirit fire, with his body.

Will the spirit fire and my soul energy mutually restrain each other, or will they combine and become stronger?

The more he contemplated it, the deeper he delved into madness, his greed intensifying with each passing thought.

He just couldn’t wait and even began salivating in anticipation.

GG Chapter 731 Sword Energy Attack Hmm?

Just as Harlan was fantasizing about obtaining Emrys’s finger, he suddenly sensed something.

In that fleeting moment, a potent aura registered on his senses.

Sword energy? Where’d that come from?

Harlan was confused.

During his time undercover in the Hermansen family as Levente, although he hadn’t regarded the Sky Devourer Lord as a threat, he had to acknowledge that within Chanaea, the reputation of the Sky Devourer Lord was undeniably prominent.

Harlan couldn’t be bothered to pay the Sky Devourer Lord any heed, yet snippets of news about him always managed to reach his ears.

Oh, I shouldn’t call him the Sky Devourer Lord. He’s the Empyrean Lord.

The people of Chanaea consistently talked about the Empyrean Lord, and even Harlan couldn’t ignore information about him.
