Jared gave a wave, causing the Dragonslayer Sword and his shadow clones to disappear in an instant. Seeing that, Garthor flashed a smile. “Oh? Have you changed your mind and decided to come with me?”
“That will never happen unless you carry me there,” came Jared’s answer. His right hand started shimmering. Garthor chuckled aloud. “Even when you used a weapon, you weren’t my match. Do you seriously think you can defeat me with your bare hands?”
He was unbothered by Jared’s action. “Sacred Light Fist!” Jared hollered. The radiance emanating from his hand. intensified, reaching a brightness akin to that of the sun.
A forceful punch that twisted space came for Garthor. In response, Garthor raised his hand slowly and gathered a burst of energy in his hand before reaching out to grab Jared’s fist.
Boom! Following the sound, Jared’s fist was held firmly by Garthor. “Seriously? If you’re not strong enough, stop resisting,” he commented with a disdainful smirk.
However, Jared appeared unfazed by the outcome. He had never expected to defeat Garthor with just one punch. Garthor’s attention was fixed on Jared when something glinted beside him.
The Dragonslayer Sword reappeared and swung toward Garthor’s arm. Garthor frowned and retreated agilely, but the sword still managed to cut him. Blood soon trickled down his arm.
Seeing that, Jared felt a surge of frustration. He thought he could sever Garthor’s arm but belatedly discovered that his sword spirit wasn’t strong enough to achieve that feat.
Anger heated Garthor’s blood instantly as he gazed at his injured arm. “Young man, I’ve lost all patience!” he warned. Suddenly, his injury emitted a green glow and started healing itself swiftly!
Jared’s jaw dropped open in shock as he had no idea how Garthor did that. “I heard that Stormwind Sect went against the natural laws by using genetic technology in secret. It seems like the rumor is true,” Archer said darkly as he watched Garthor’s wound heal itself.
“Archer, we need to inform our master. He once told me that whoever goes against the natural law will be punished by the heavenly tribulation. Perhaps the entire martial arts world will have to suffer as a result,” Skyler chimed in worriedly.
Archer nodded, his gaze still fixed on Garthor. Garthor’s anger reached a boiling point as he transformed his hands into sharp claws that emanated a silvery glow. A murderous aura filled the area, increasing with every second.
“I’ll make you pay!” Garthor declared viciously. With that, he disappeared right in front of Jared’s eyes. Jared knitted his brows and swung his Dragonslayer Sword backward without hesitation.
Clang! The Dragonslayer Sword seemed to have come into contact with something hard as Jared felt his hand vibrating from the impact. Before he could see what it was, a strong gust of energy came for him.
At once, Jared was flung backward. His Golem Body shattered on impact as blood spurted from the wound on his chest. As Jared stared at the wound on his chest, the look on his face grew increasingly solemn..
Jared’s Golem Body was exceptionally strong. Even without his Golem Body, it was rare to find someone who could penetrate his skin. Garthor had not only destroyed his Golem Body but also wounded his body!
“Your body is so strong! I only managed to cause an abrasion.” Garthor couldn’t hide his surprise. Despite that, he quickly landed on the ground before coming for Jared yet again. Garthor had already lost his patience after having attacked Jared, a mere Martial Arts Saint, more than once.
