Chapter 724 The Enemy Had Appeared (Part One)
Malick became more alert and careful once he realized that his fierce strike had no effect. It seemed to
him now whoever was taking cover behind this thick fog was not to be looked down upon, so he had to
be more vignt.
As a respectable and experienced Master Realm cultivator, Malick could still vaguely locate the enemy
despite his spiritual sense being restricted and he could barely use it.
The de-light he had just unleashed was quick, sudden, and well-aimed. It was equivalent to a
surprise attack, and the fact that the enemy could dodge it so easily meant that it was a formidable foe
that had great skills and was not to be under-estimated.
However, since someone had reacted to his attack, it at least proved one thing. The weird city was not
totally deserted. It seemed that some people were hiding in the shadow and ying tricks on them.
The mysterious things that were happening in the strange city had distressed Malick ever since he had
set foot in the deste town. No matter how hard he tried, he just couldn''t figure things out. Now that
clear enemies hade out and made some kind of interactions with him, he secretly felt relieved
instead of fear.
Once his cultivation base had leveled up to the Master Realm, he had feared no one, since no one had
really posed any threat to him in the Sunset Mountain. So he wasn''t really scared of the enemies,
although he still couldn''t see them.
"You are still ying tricks with me, huh? How dare you challenge me like this? It seems that I must
teach you a lesson, or else you will never learn!"
Malick warned, although there was no response this time. He sneered in his mind, wielded his saber
and a shing de intent was created and released from within his body, bursting out into the air.
Dozens of dazzling saber-lights carrying explosive strength shot out fast and formed a formidable of
sharp des, which rushed overwhelmingly towards the square, in the direction of the enemy''s voice.
The solid wall of greyish white fog was brought down instantly by his quick and forceful de aura,
which then cleared a limited space on the square. The space cleared looked like a typhoon eye being
created and Malick could finally see the clear and bright sky behind the fog.
And at this point, a male figure appeared at the cleared corner of the square. Malick could tell that it
was the silhouette of a middle-aged man. He was around forty years old and was inly dressed.
Malick was surprised by the sudden appearance of the man while the middle-aged man had not
expected that Malick would see him, either. He hadn''t imagined that Malick''s attack could be so
powerful and aggressive, and a sign of rm flickered over his face. Before Malick could even get to
see the ''surprise intruder'' or say or do anything, the middle-aged man turned his palm up, and a pitch-
ck little square g appeared from the middle of his palm and he tossed it towards Malick.
Before the g hit the ground, a cloud of dark fog flowed out of it. The fog swirled and surged forward
while gradually turning into arge number of hideous demons that produced an ear-piercing scream
once theypletely took shape. They rushed over to the of sharp des made by Malick directly.
As he threw the dark g, the middle-aged man made a hasty retreat to increase the distance between
himself and Malick. He then waved his other hand to draw a green shield in front of him, which
expanded rapidly once it touched the air. Soon, it grew into a huge shield over ten feet wide, several
times its original size and stood between the man and Malick.
The man was obviously threatened by Malick''s of des and since he had caught him off guard, he
must have felt defenseless and exposed and therefore used all his skills and tricks to defend himself,
just like a drowning rat.
The next instant, the evil demon-like spirits collided with the bright of des. Immediately, there
was a high pitched, thin sound at the edge of the de. The numerous demons produced harsh heart-
wrenching screams as they were torn into tiny pieces and their bones crushed by the and turned
into tiny little dark debris in the air.
At the same time, the dark g from where the evil demons had appeared also exploded at once into
oblivion
However, in the process, the bright of des also flickered and grew dimmer with every attack.
Once it collided with the green big shield, the impact made a deafening sound as it came into contact
with the hard metallic surface. It didn''t break the shield with one single blow, but it forced it to retreat
under its relentless barrage of attacks.
Hiding behind the green shield, the middle-aged man''s face changed color. He had never thought that
the''s assaults could still be as offensive as it was, especially since part of its energy was
significantly consumed by the demons. Malick was not to be underestimated and so to reinforce his
defense, the man reached out to touch the back of the shield and began to continuously inject his vital
energy into it.
The shield managed to maintain its shape while receiving a toon of attacks, however, it still kept
retreating due to the incessant confrontation and attacks from the. The middle-aged man tried his
best to hold on to his armor, but he too had to take steps back to keep up with the attack and to avoid
being pressed into the mud by the''s force. Fortunately, after holding out for a while, the standoff
finally ended when the of des slowly ran out of energy and dissipated, unable to attack any
more.
The shield survived the barrage of attacks, but several small cracks appeared on its surface. The
man''s face darkened when he noticed the damage and he regretted being careless, otherwise, Malick

wouldn''t have been able to take the upper hand. From now on, he had to take his rival more seriously.
He quickly put his shield back and with a wave of his hand. He then summoned the thick fog which
flooded into the space that Malick had earlier cleared. Soon the corner where he stood was again
covered by the white curtain of fog, and the man vanished into thin air.
"So he is also a Master Realm cultivator, a rather strong one!"
The people who witnessed the confrontation became aware of their enemy''s level of strength after
seeing how the middle-aged man channeled his vital energy into the shield to strengthen it.
He might have been a bit weaker than Malick, but his cultivation base was definitely at the Master
Realm.
After realizing that he could get at the enemy with a single blow, Malick was quite reassured of his
skills. Taking a deep breath, he created another glistening and overwhelming of des and pushed
it towards the enemy again.
