A Man Like None Other Chapter 500

Chapter 500 Time To Get Serious

In response to that stone golem’s ferocious onslaught, Jared’s answer was equally voluminous. Concentrating the spiritual energy within himself, he channeled it into a sphere of light around his own fist as radiant as the sun itself!

Boom!

Jared met that stone golem’s fist head-on with his own. To the masses, however, the former’s knuckles seemed so puny in comparison to his counterpart’s. Even his entire person was dwarfed when lined up against that massive fist of rock.

Surprisingly, in tandem with a fulmination of golden light and a loud bang, the stone golem was knocked down to the ground in a burst of flying debris.

Reduced to a pile of rubble, the stone golem’s former humanoid form had long since disintegrated beyond recognition!

Everyone regarded Jared with awe. It was inconceivable how his tiny body could have overpowered the stone golem’s hulking frame!

With terror reflected within his eyes, even the color drained from Bruce’s face.

“Mr. Mikkelson…” Isaiah shouted in alarm.

“Even if I were to die, so be it. But I shall not have my reputation despoiled this day!”

In his eyes appeared a smidgen of determination, as though he had arrived at some resolve.

With that, he slapped his abdomen with two fingers. His originally pallid face flushed red while he thrust his upper body forward and expunged a large spray of crimson orally. The blood fell like rain in a drizzle upon a mass of rocks!

Rumble, rumble, rumble—

An even larger stone golem, twice as big as its predecessor, arose in no time at all. The completion of this ritual, however, caused Bruce to appear significantly more haggard than before. Like a candle at the tail end of its burn time, Bruce could very well have keeled over had it not been for the support Isaiah lent.

“Kill him…” bellowed Bruce with the last muster of his strength.

This gargantuan stone golem lumbered toward Jared and caused the earth to quake every step of the way.

“All right, time to get serious.”

When he regarded the stone golem, Jared’s face evoked a sliver of irascibility.

As soon as he was done talking, Jared swiftly took to the air until he was brought level with the stone golem. Then, he aimed a fist right at its head.

Boom!

When the fist connected with a thunderous bang, the stone golem was grounded to dust upon impact, with its remnants scattered to the four winds!

Pfft!

When Bruce saw that, he spat out a fountain of blood and collapsed, slumped upon the ground.

Jared then came right upon the grandmaster in a single bound, prompting the latter to beat a hasty retreat.

The visibly weakened Bruce regarded Jared with a bitter smile, as though he had come to some realization. “You… are neither a martial artist nor a mage. You are… a…”

Bruce’s head tilted to the side lifelessly before he was done. Toward the end, he recognized Jared to be a cultivator!

Jared regarded Bruce’s corpse with a slight frown. The latter’s recognition of himself as a cultivator was proof that he was aware of their existence, or had otherwise, encountered his own like in others.

Jared was a little miffed. Had he known better, he would not have allowed Bruce to die this easily because he very much wished to know where else he might find other energy cultivators like himself.

Getting up steadily, Jared then looked toward Isaiah. All the Fergusons were shaking in their boots, and no one dared breathe a word.

“I-I was in the wrong. I’m willing to give up on the vein mine and forever depart from Salinsburgh!” the trembling Isaiah said.

Jared shook his head. “I’ve already pledged myself to the destruction of the Fergusons. Thus, I must deliver.”

“No, please…” Isaiah got down on his knees before Jared. “Do not kill me, I beg of you. Whatever you ask, I’d be able to provide! I can give you the entire Ferguson family!”
