Chapter 367: Sams city Vs Old One II (1/2)
”Are you Old one or one of his subordinates?”
Sam's voice might be loud but it sounded extremely calm.
Old one looked straight into the eyes of Sam's face that appeared on the light curtain and said.
”Old One.”
”Oh, so you are here for revenge, right?”
”Who gave you guts to meddle in the affairs of the top dogs. Even the heads of the Major power treaded carefully throughout the war and you a pipsqueak who is still green behind his years just had to butt in and ruin my plans.
How dare you do that?”
Sam also looked at the man calmly, he is not fazed by the show of strength of the old man as he raised his aura, he is just looking at him as calm as a still lake.
”All I needed is some determination. I am confident that I can save myself, my friends and my properties. It would have been troublesome to defend against the wave after wave of undead and brainless followers.
As for meddling in the affairs to the top dogs and changing the course of war? In fact, you are the one who meddled in my affairs first, by sending troops to my city. If anything, you can only blame yourself for what happened.”
Old one was furious at Sam's words, the Orange flames raged as he clenched his fists and jaw.
He wanted to see Sam quivering in fear. Normally, that is what would have happened if a Grand realm cultivator came across a Consummate realm cultivator. No matter what, as far as Old one could see, the obstacles between him and Sam are only some formations.
This shouldn't give Sam any sense of safety.
But Sam is mocking him directly without a hint of dread.
His ego took a big hit.
After all these thoughts ran through his mind, he accounted Sam's guts to one thing and that is Ignorance.
Yes, he accounted Sam's courage to stand up against him to his age and ignorance.
Sam would have laughed at this because Old one should have heard the initial announcement of Sam to the citizens when he asked them to infuse spiritual energy within walls of the structures in the city.
Old One is just finding excuses to satisfy his ego.
But that is not the main point at this moment. Old One started making his move.
This time, he didn't even bother trying to enter the city, he just extended his hands and the dark orange flames started conjuring at the edge of the formation.
He just wanted to burn the whole city without even bother to enter it, all this to just vent his anger.
But to his surprise, the light curtain is not allowing the flames to get past it. The defense of the city is stronger than he thought.
Sam's face didn't even flicker on the screen.
It is still intact.
Old one was extremely frustrated.
But what he doesn't know is, the runes that appeared all over the city are glowing brighter than ever, the spiritual energy from the city was being gathered into the building.
And the Sphere is glowing brighter than ever.
The citizens are all panicking at the pace their spiritual energy is being drained from their bodies.
Old one doesn't know the amount of fear he created in the citizens, as far as he knows, the formation and the light curtain is still stable and there is not a single sign of weakness in it.
But he didn't stop, he just raised the intensity of flames and by this time, he started sweating and there are signs of pressure on his face.
He just finished a huge battle against ten other consummate realm cultivators, he is in his weakest state.
He can exert the strength of an Initial stage Consummate realm cultivator at most.
But he is confident that he can use that strength to defeat Sam and his city.
While Old one is estimating the strength of the light curtain, Sam is also looked at Old one trying to estimate his strength by observing the extent of his injuries.
It is still hard for him with his current strength.
But suddenly, Sam felt the aura of someone else in the direction of the Space gate.
In fact, Sam doesn't have enough sensory level with his current strength to detect the people that far off.
But the addition of the formation is something different. He made sure to enhance his sensory perception when he activated the formation and the perception is actually quite huge.
Old one though, he doesn't need the formation to have the same level of perception. He looked towards the Space gate and his frown got deeper.
”Seems like your company has arrived.”
Sam said calmly.
Old one also knew that his company has arrived and felt the need to get past the light curtain.
He activated elemental fusion and became a fire elemental body as he forced his way into the light curtain.
Even though he is an elemental body, it is still spiritual energy that made him like that and other spiritual energy attacks would make some damage, but the damage wouldn't be physical, rather it would consume his spiritual energy faster than usual.
The light curtain proved it was not there for a show.
