Chapter 481 Heavenly Shadow Pace (1/2)

”That's good. I also want to experience just how powerful the unique skills of the Ghost Clan are, especially the Ghost Shadow Kill you used last time,” Zachary suddenly said, sneering.

”You...” Zachary's words wiped the grin clean off Goliath's face. He had not expected Zachary to know him to be a member of the Ghost Clan. He could not risk revealing his true identity to the Shura College.

”Don't worry,” Zachary said, noticing Goliath's anxious expression. ”Nobody else knows this about you, and I do not intend to tell anyone, at least not for now. I need you as a stepping stone.” This caught Goliath off guard.

”I'll make you take back what you said.” Outraged at Zachary's arrogance, Goliath's face darkened.

”Please,” Zachary said politely, gesturing with his hand.

Goliath's gaze hardened. In a flash, he disappeared on the spot, leaving behind him only a shadow. Almost simultaneously, he reappeared in front of Zachary. He had moved so quickly, it was all over by the time any of the onlookers realized what had happened.

”The Ghost Clan disciple is so skilled. His Heavenly Shadow Pace is truly impressive!” Zachary exclaimed. Having spent the past two days thoroughly studying all the martial skills of the Ghost Clan, he was perfectly familiar with the technique Goliath had just used. It was the Heavenly Shadow Pace, which, in essence, was similar to the Shadow Pace, but it was a little inferior to the latter. Nevertheless, it was still a very powerful movement skill in the entire Supernal Continent. Moreover, it focused more on actual combat, and if combined with the other martial skills of a warrior like Goliath, could produce immeasurable power in combat.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Holy Phoenix looked at Zachary with great interest.

”Master, what do you think of Harley's chances of winning?” Riley asked her.

”Judging by his performance in the first round of the strength contest, it seems like the chances are very high,” she answered pensively, pausing for a moment to think. ”But at the same time, this disciple, Goliath, is no ordinary opponent. So if he wants to win, he will have to work hard.” Riley nodded in response, also deep in thought.

”I've done some research on Goliath. He doesn't seem suspicious, but I do suspect that he is somehow connected to the Ghost Clan. He might even be part of it,” Riley said.
