Chapter 681 Not Everything Yet
As a blinding green arc streaked across the air, the giant pair of hands were slashed open right in the
center. Recoiling from the attack, the hands that Xander had formed with his energy disintegrated into
dust.
Instead of getting the better of Jared, Xander was beaten back instead, which came as a shock to
everyone.
As Xander narrowed his gaze, the murderous intent in his eyes intensified. Without another word, he
prepared to launch another attack.
Regardless of whether Jared was hurt, Xander didn’t plan to allow him to catch his breath. Since he
couldn’t kill Jared in a single blow, he had to fight a battle of attrition instead. After all, as a Martial Arts
Grandmaster, he was confident that Jared wouldn’t be able to last too long.
Balling his fingers into fists, Xander threw a punch from tens of meters away. He had unleashed an

trail of smoke in the air, similar to those left by airplanes in the sky.
Bam!
Jared returned another energy slash that was significantly more powerful than the one earlier. Evidently,
he had not used his full strength then.
With a loud rumble, the arc that Jared shot out slashed at Xander’s energy attack. Even though Jared
had intercepted most of the attack, part of it still rammed into Jared’s chest.
At that moment, the massive impact pushed Jared back across the arena, leaving two deep grooves
where his feet had slid backward. It wasn’t until he reached the edge of the arena that he finally came to
a stop.
In response, Jared furrowed his brows slightly. I cannot underestimate the power of a Martial Arts
Grandmaster. Evidently, Xander’s energy level is different from that of an ordinary martial artist.
Under normal circumstances, a martial artist’s energy was generated from fighting and cultivation.
Therefore, only a Grandmaster was able to emanate energy at will. However, due to the limits of a
martial artist’s cultivation, they could not sustain the energy for long, let alone crystallize its form.
Evidently, this energy was still significantly inferior to spiritual energy. That was the reason why Jared
could easily defeat two powerful Grandmasters even though he was only an energy cultivator in the
Transcendence Phase.
Nevertheless, Xander’s energy was different from that of other martial artists. In fact, it resembled
Jared’s spiritual energy more.
No wonder Rayleigh reminded me not to underestimate Martial Arts Grandmasters, for they are indeed
formidable foes. It appears that once a martial artist achieves that state, he will be elevated to a whole
new level. I finally understand why so many of them dream of reaching the heights of a Martial Arts
Grandmaster and train tirelessly for it. In spite of that, it isn’t a walk in the park at all. Other than the
endless amount of cultivation and talent needed, one has to also be lucky.
“Having defended against my attacks twice, you are considered the strongest Grandmaster I have met
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmever since I came out of seclusion. In fact, your body’s constitution has exceeded my expectations.
Therefore, I’m sure you must have taken some pills to supplement your training. If you’re willing to give
them to me, I’ll consider sparing you.”
Xander was filled with envy when he saw Jared’s bronze-colored complexion.
“Sparing me? I’m the one who killed your son and nephew. Hence, are you really going to let me go?”
Jared replied with a smirk.
“When one reaches my state of cultivation, familial ties are nothing but an impedance. Once I have
achieved immortality, there’s no need for me to worry about having descendants. If you’re willing to give
me the pills you use to train your body, I will definitely let you go.”
Xander’s words shocked everyone present. No one expected him to forgo seeking revenge for his son
over some pills.
