Chapter 760: Collecting another 'Assassin god's statue'

In the official kills section, he saw a new skill, and without thinking much, he focused on it.

'Ding,

Skill name:- Emergency ghost (Level 1) (Passive)

Effect: In a near-death situation or unexpected attacks that are impossible to dodge, the user will turn into a ghost for a few seconds.

Side-effects: The user will enter into a completely weakened state and be in no position to attack for a few hours, depending on the incoming attack.

More information:- A life-saving passive skill; however, the side-effect is a little too much. Nevertheless, it is a useful skill to have.

'So, this is the skill which saved him from my 'Spatial attacks'.'

After reading the information on his new skill, Ajax felt it was a pretty good skill.

If someone with good assassin skills tries to kill him with his sneak attack, this skill will be very helpful.

As soon as he got alerted, even if he entered the weakened state, he had many elemental spirits and contracted spirit beasts to take care of him.

'Now, let's see what effect this assassin god's statue has.'

After nodding his head at his new skill, Ajax picked up the black-coloured statue.

'Ding,

Item name:- Assassin god's statue (Nine)

Effect:- Transforms the owner into an unknown creature with a physical power of peak level 10 elite general realm.

Note:- Even though the user returns his regular form, he will be in a weakened state for at least a year.

More information:- Collecting all 12 assassin god's statues will reveal a big secret.

Soon, the information about the assassin god statue appeared in front of him.

'Holy heavens! Peak level 10 elite general realm physical strength.'

This time Ajax was shocked after seeing the effect of this statue and thought, 'No wonder, Jastin was so confident about killing me.'

For the cultivators in the Zrochester province, peak level 10 elite general realm is equivalent to god.

However, to Jastin's bad luck, Necros had a physical immunity. So, he could not do anything to him and was later killed by him.

'As for this 'More information', I wonder what secret it will reveal. As long as I destroy the assassin sect, I can easily get all the statues, but the problem is, will it be dangerous?'

Ajax already has two statues, and by adding the one in his hands, there will be three.

'Let's see when I get 12 assassin god's statues,' Soon, he stopped thinking about it and decided to break through to the general realm.

...…..

A couple of hours back,

Outside the huge barrier in the bronze demon world,

Everyone was not hiding their skill and techniques and going all out to kill the bronze demons because the top 10 with the most number of kill counts will be given good rewards.

Generally, the rewards from the champions contest are very generous, and since the royal family conducts the contest, they were the ones giving those rewards.

However, with the sudden involvement of the protector Olek, the strongest cultivator of the Zrochester province, the rewards would be even more generous.

No one wants to miss those rewards and try their best.

However, no matter how hard they tried, they were overwhelmed by the huge number of bronze demons coming endlessly.

Even though they were not tired, they could not keep up with the endless army, and when they were in no position to defend themselves, they used to mutter 'Escape' to teleport to the Zrochester province.

"Captain, our battle prowess is greatly decreased after elimination of our brothers and sister,"

Dark flame used his fire techniques to burn the bronze demons as he bitterly said to Fearless Gorilla.

From their 'nine-men awakening' team, currently, only four were remaining. As for others, they used the talisman to escape from the bronze demon world when they were in a critical situation.

"Everyone, the contest will end any time now. Let's go all out and kill as many bronze demons as possible."

Fearless Gorilla ordered his team members because there were only 20 participants, including Ajax and Jastin remaining in the bronze world.

The moment there are only 10 participants left in the bronze demon world, the contest will end. So, they didn't waste any time and went all out.

Fearless Gorilla turned into a huge gorilla of around 20 meters and slammed all the bronze demons to death.

Silver Goliath didn't turn into any beast but, his body had grown to 10 meters as he swept all the demons on the ground.

Dark flame burned every bronze demon in his 100 meters radius.

The last remaining one from the team, Heavenly Raven, was riding a huge raven and killed the demons with the help of his contracted spirit beast.

…..

Not only Edmond's adopted children, the participants from the top powers thought the same and went for their ultimate skills.

The few remaining participants from the top three sects are

Fire sword sect:-  Arkor, Nedhor and Vadel.

Assassin sect:- Jastin and Alhan.

Combat king sect:- Brer, Ghir (Two brothers that entered the summoner king's inheritance land).

As for the participants from the five great families, they are

Hammergust family:- Luis.

Foreglow family:- Bran.

Dusthorn family:- Corey.

Covenheart family:- Aegan.

Terratide family:- Cohan.

Three mysterious masked participants casually killed thousands of bronze demons, and from time to time, they use some powerful kills which can kill 20000-50000 bronze demons in a single attack.

Some of them were killed by the sneak attacks from the assassin sect's disciples, and many escaped when they were in no position to save themselves.

"Senior brother, shall we go now?"

All of a sudden, one of the masked participants asked the masked participants beside him.

"Yes...let's go."

The remaining two masked participants nodded their heads and muttered 'Escape' at the same time.

Soon, they disappeared from the bronze demon world, and the moment they appeared on the huge stage back in the Zrochester province, they silently left to one corner of the sitting stands.

Many powers wanted to recruit these three rogue cultivators into their sects and families. So, they sent someone from their power to keep an eye on them.

However, they could not keep an eye on them because they disappeared right in front of their eyes which greatly shocked them.

'Who are they?'

'How did they disappear right under our noses?'

'What am I going to explain to the sect leader/ family head?'

The various cultivators that were following the three masked participants didn't know how to explain what happened regarding the masked participants.

Nevertheless, they explained what they had seen.

'Leave it...they were not normal cultivators. Only the royal family must know about their identity.'

As for the leaders of the sects and great families, they didn't ponder much about it as though they were young geniuses of the royal family.

However, what they didn't know was that the royal family didn't know those three young cultivators.

According to the invitation name on these three masked participants, they were just some rogue cultivators. After seeing their battle prowess on the mirror screen, the royal family wanted to conduct a detailed inquiry; however, they were stopped by the protector Olek.
