Chapter 512: Chapter 512: Stirring the Power of the Dragon Vein!
The layers of the Stone Tablet shattered, turning into ruins in the blink of an eye!
Underneath the Stone Tablet, indeed, treasure was concealed!
At first glance, there were medicinal herbs of several thousand years, long-stored magical artifacts, and lost cultivation skills!
Each item was top of the line!
“There really are herbs!” Ethan Smith was quite excited!
Once he possessed the five thousand year old herbs, Ethan Smith could refine a Reincarnation Pill, then step into the half-step martial marquis level!
Ethan Smith had extreme confidence in himself. He believed that once he reached the half-step Martial Marquis level, no one else in the world at the same level could match him!
Even when faced with a true Marquis, Ethan Smith would still hold his ground!
This was the Chaotic Body, the world’s top physique!
“There really is treasure!” Soren Taylor and the others also became excited!
Indeed, their journey had not been in vain.
The only oddity was that even when thousands of years old herbs were unearthed, they still couldn’t sense the slightest bit of qi from them.
“That’s weird.” Ethan thought at the back of his mind.
Once the Dharma Treasures were unearthed, the atmosphere on-site then began to feel slightly awkward.
“I just need one stalk of the five thousand year old herbs, and I will not lay a finger on the rest.” Ethan Smith was the first to break the heavy silence.
On hearing this, Emerson Holmes couldn’t help but chuckle in response: “A stalk of five thousand year old herbs? Indeed, you speak lightly.”
Ethan Smith retorted coldly, “So what do you mean by that?”
Emerson Holmes squinted his eyes and sneered: “You think too highly of yourself! Superintendent of a medicinal herb of five thousand years indeed! You might want to take a good look at who you are!”
“Ethan Smith, you are merely a lowly little ant who has caught the eye of Miss Taylor. Even if an ant climbs to the highest point, it is still nothing more than a plaything for people like us!”
“You want a herb? Sure, kneel down and beg for me, I might consider tossing you some scrap remains!”
The sudden switch in Emerson Holmes’ attitude left everyone dumbfounded.
Even Ethan Smith couldn’t help but frown.
He coldly retorted: “And what if I insist on taking it?”
“You can always give it a try!” Emerson Holmes said coldly.
Ethan Smith made a soft humph. He then reached his hand out, ready to grab the herb.
At this moment, however, a terrifying energy aimed directly towards his palm!
Sensing this energy, Ethan Smith’s face turned sour.
He hurriedly drew his hand back – that energy just brushed past his palm!
The horrifying part was that this energy actually left a bloody scratch on Ethan’s hand!
Merely a streak of plain energy that managed to slice through the indomitable skin of Ethan Smith!
How powerful was that energy!
Keep in mind, not even an ordinary half-step martial marquis could wound Ethan Smith this easily!
Emerson Holmes, squinting, said, “The Capital City Martial Arts Association always leaves no stone unturned. We anticipated all possible issues, including you!”
“Can you guess, why the Capital City Martial Arts Association would let a half-step martial marquis like me take charge?”
Ethan Smith remained silent, but there was a hint of unease in his heart.
“That’s because… I can harness the power of Heaven and Earth!” Emerson Holmes roared!
Pointing at the shattered Stone Tablet, he said coldly, “Once this Stone Tablet broke, the power of the Dragon Vein was released!”
“The power of the Dragon Vein can even contend with a Martial Marquis. Ethan Smith, do you think you stand a chance!”
Ethan Smith’s expression grew increasingly grave.
Hindsight being 20/20, he should have killed this Emerson Holmes in the beginning!
“Ethan Smith, the Capital City Martial Arts Association has always seen you as a thorn in its side. We were looking for you, instead you came straight to us.” Emerson Holmes said sinisterly.
“So be it, today I will take this opportunity to kill you!” 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂
As he spoke, Emerson Holmes’s palm trembled slightly, and a terrifying power appeared out of nowhere!
