Chapter 1442 -1442: The Eve of the Great Battle_1

The First Elder dropped his harsh words, then turned and walked away.

Numerous guardians coldly stared at Ethan Smith, their gazes filled with intense killing intention.

The killing formation that suddenly materialized in the sky sent shivers down many people’s spines.

Ethan also looked up toward the vast killing formation overhead.

Within this killing formation, Ethan felt traces of vivid and intense murderous intent.

*”No wonder the First Elder is so wary of it,” Ethan thought to himself.*

Justin Vasquez glanced at Ethan, his face heavy with a grave expression.

“Ethan, we need to think of a way,” Justin said in a cold voice.

Ethan gave a slight nod and said, “No worries. Once I recover, I’ll go out and face them.”

“Face them? Ethan, this time the First Elder has clearly come prepared. Who knows what treasures he might be carrying.” Justin’s voice was deep.

This did make Ethan feel somewhat apprehensive, though he wasn’t overly concerned.

After all, he had two treasures of his own: the Great Iron Staff and that painting.

These two treasures were exceedingly mysterious, especially the painting, which came from the masked woman. Even the magical artifacts of the Cloud Sect could hardly compare.

“Justin, don’t follow me later,” Ethan said.

Justin shook his head and said, “The First Elder already has his eyes on me. Whether I go or stay makes little difference.” ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

With that, Justin drew the Silver Spring from his hand.

He swung the Silver Spring lightly and said coldly, “With the Silver Spring in hand, I have some confidence.”

Seeing this, Ethan said no more, took out the Life Aura, and gulped it down in one motion.

After absorbing the Life Aura again, Ethan felt the spiritual energy within his body skyrocketing!

At the same time, his spiritual power was greatly restored.

Ethan sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes slightly, and slowly absorbed the Life Aura.

*”It seems this Life Aura really works,” Ethan said in a deep voice.*

Justin chuckled and said, “Of course it does. Let it be known, obtaining Life Aura is extremely difficult—its value far exceeds that of mere herbs.”

Ethan responded with a small nod, closed his eyes halfway, and began to absorb the surrounding spiritual energy.

Since many people were exchanging herbs at the Exchange Guild, the spiritual energy here was especially dense.

A tiny vortex appeared in Ethan’s body once more—a manifestation of the spiritual energy, remarkably mysterious.

Such an extraordinary sight drew many observers.

“That man must be Ethan Smith. His cultivation methods are truly terrifying.”

“The rumors say he’s regained his spiritual power; seems they’re true.”

“Absolutely horrifying! A Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, relying only on his physical body, managed to fend off the First Elder while devoid of spiritual power—unbelievable.”

“I can’t even imagine how strong he must be now…”

Not only were they unaware, but even Ethan himself couldn’t be sure.

When his spiritual power was restored, his physical body underwent another enhancement, enabling him to wield techniques as well.

*Such growth was simply beyond imagination.*

It was midday. For the Exchange Guild, this place resembled a scenic attraction, where crowds would be dispersed punctually every evening.

Thus, Ethan still had half a day left to absorb spiritual energy.

Although Ethan’s absorption speed was swift, his body had been dried out for far too long; regaining his peak state was not a task that could be completed in just a few days.

In the blink of an eye, the sky began to darken.

People at the Exchange Guild started leaving slowly, and the number of individuals on the mountaintop dwindled.

“Mr. Smith, we should leave, too,” Justin called out to Ethan.

Ethan gradually opened his eyes, gazed at the setting sun, and stood up, saying, “Yes, it’s indeed time to go.”

The sound of a bell resonated in the sky—a signal to depart.

Ethan stretched his limbs, feeling the surging spiritual power within his body.

“Mr. Smith, how are you feeling?” Justin asked.

Ethan said in a deep voice, “At most, I can exert thirty percent of my power, and I won’t be able to maintain it for long.”

Thirty percent might not seem like much, but in reality, this increase in combat power was no small matter.

If the First Elder had no Treasure in his possession, it was hard to say who would emerge victorious.

Ethan and Justin strode toward the entrance.

On the surrounding mountain peaks, many onlookers stood with crossed arms, seemingly eager to witness the battle.

Soon, Ethan and Justin arrived near the entrance.

The moment the First Elder spotted Ethan’s figure, his eyes abruptly snapped open.

His icy gaze locked firmly onto Ethan.

“You little brat, let’s see where you think you’re running,” the First Elder said coldly.

Ethan ignored him and turned to Justin, saying, “Justin, you don’t need to intervene later.”

“Mr. Smith, I…”

“I have it under control.” Ethan interrupted Justin.

Justin saw this and could only nod, saying, “Then be careful yourself.”

Ethan responded with a nod before striding out from the Exchange Guild.

The guardians of the Cloud Sect instantly appeared, encircling Ethan tightly.

Ethan glanced around and sneered coldly, “First Elder, have these useless fools step back.”

As soon as they heard this, the numerous guardians’ faces erupted in anger.

A torrent of fury surged straight toward Ethan.

Yet standing at the eye of the storm, Ethan remained as calm as if he were strolling in a garden, his expression unruffled.
