In the starry sky, Severin could not help but breathe a sigh of relief when he sensed that the hidden spectators had all retreated. Using his divine sense, he scanned the area within dozens of miles to make sure that those people had indeed withdrawn before safely retracting Flameless Pinnacle.
Looking at the mist of blood in the starry sky, Severin sighed. "Fortunately, I didn't use all of my spiritual energy in the battle with Halbert just now. Otherwise, things might have taken a turn for the worse this time."
Severin had used two of his ultimate trump cards against Halbert. He managed to kill him by first unleashing the Chaotic Swordshadow and then Lotus Divine Attack.
After the battle, he had to be vigilant against potential sneak attacks from those secretly observing nearby.
Fortunately, Severin had prepared in advance, keeping some tricks up his sleeve. This allowed him to swiftly eliminate the level four paragon with a single sword strike.
Severin took out several alchemical pills and ate them. He then sat cross-legged to begin the process of restoring his injuries.
The pills rejuvenated his internal organs, meridians, and the entirety of his body. The energy center, previously somewhat depleted, gradually filled with spiritual energy.
After a moment, Severin abruptly opened his eyes. He parted his lips slightly and breathed out. A streak of white mist shot out accompanied by a resounding "crack." The white mist extended across a hundred yards like thunder echoing in the sky.
Using his divine sense, Severin observed that the depleted spiritual energy in his energy center had been replenished. Thus, he slowly stood up.
He looked towards the dissipating blood mist not far away and muttered, "I hope whatever is inside that guy's spatial ring is worth almost depleting my spiritual energy for."
Severin waved his hand, bringing forth the spatial ring that had been floating around the blood mist. Following that, he used his divine sense to quickly inspect the spoils within.
Little did he know that shortly after defeating Halbert, the entire Starry Sky Battlespace was in an uproar, and the situation was gradually intensifying.
…
In the depths of the starry sky, on a star brimming with vitality, a young man dressed as a scholar slowly set down a small jade plaque for voice transmission. His eyes were shining.
"A core disciple from the Yellow Ghost Tribe's sacred land is dead?" exclaimed the scholar in surprise. "And he's killed by a mere level three paragon with an elite-quality spiritual treasure?"
He raised his head to gaze at the profound and boundless starry sky. His interest in Severin grew even stronger.
