Degrade from Nobility to a Humble Slave

Though at the marrow refining level, Zen braved the debilitating assault from Vale, thus dwarfing his counterparts.

Billy who was at the grade-two nature level was too weak to circulate his life vitality against Vale's threat. Consequently, he was just an onlooker.

Zen who hadn't learned to cultivate life vitality found it exceptionally hard to concentrate on his life energy.

He relied on his body and the strength of his soul instead.

'Vale's intent is not as strong as the vengeful beast's intent. Nevertheless, it is challenging for me to resist his intent !' Zen marveled at his rival's power, which almost overwhelmed him despite his determination to withstand the assault.

Many people would be overpowered under this circumstance. Zen was no exception.

He felt as though he was being shattered and battered.....

'No. I must not surrender!' Zen swore.

One may achieve wonders with superior willpower.

But the overwhelming disparity between them in terms of martial arts overshadowed Zen's tenacity.

Zen was enduring the unbearable when confronting his rival.

Vale marveled at Zen's unparalleled endurance in the heat of their fight.

He was aware of the immense power of his life vitality, which was why Vale had used it to attack Zen.

'Marrow refining level......

His physical body has not yet reached its limits....

How can he counter my attacks?' Vale wondered at Zen's capacity to face his life vitality.

"Zen, I can see your strength and power fading gradually!" Vale grinned and then circulated his life vitality stronger than before. His power increased, so did the light column. It soared higher and glimmered brighter.

The homicidal intent of the lotus emanating from Vale's body had by now reached excessive levels.

But Zen's blood and soul were extraordinary enough to withstand the metaphysical menace as his body had become a spiritual weapon already.

Tenacious as he was, Zen felt his soul's strength fading gradually.

When confronted by the vengeful beast, the cyan dragon had come to Zen's rescue. It had roared at the vengeful beast, and the beast had surrendered. Now the cyan dragon was not spiritually active.

'I have to learn to be self-reliant!' he thought.

Vale's life vitality combined with the homicidal intent of the lotus was not powerful enough to injure Zen severely.

But Vale's assaults gave Zen a sense of oppression.
