“Path to Nirvana

Difficulty: No Survivors

Mission Objective: Choose one of the two

1. Slay Thorne and Oblivion Legion soldiers

2. Defeat the instance Guardian, the Godly Marksman Alma”

When Zhao Mingwei, Caramel, Juan Canyun, Black Pot Cooking Meat, and Bai Di appeared in the instance, this line of text popped up in front of them.

“Why don’t we go take out the Godly Marksman Alma first?” Seeing that the mission required choosing one option, Black Pot Cooking Meat’s first instinct was to tackle the Godly Marksman Alma.

The trauma of Thorne’s incredible strength left a terrible shadow on the players; Thorne could wreak havoc on a group of Holy Spirits even with just a stick in hand.

Now, with the help of the Oblivion Legion, he would undoubtedly wield better weapons than he had in the Holy Spirit Arena.

On the other hand, players had fewer encounters with the Godly Marksman Alma, making his impact seem less daunting—at least only Black Pot Cooking Meat and Caramel felt a psychological shadow when facing the Godly Marksman Alma.

“My suggestion is for Caramel to fight Thorne, I’ll take down the Oblivion Legion, Xiao Wen and I will pair up for extra insurance, and you and Bai Di can challenge the Godly Marksman Alma.”

Zhao Mingwei immediately voiced the riskiest and worst decision.

“Okay.”

“No objections.”

“Senior, I will follow your lead.”

Caramel, Bai Di, and Juan Canyun agreed to Zhao Mingwei’s plan almost instantly without a second thought.

“What the hell? You must be joking, Brother Xiao! Thorne alone could take on the five of us.” Black Pot Cooking Meat exploded upon hearing the decision—this sounded like a team strategy guaranteed for a wipeout!

But there was no time left for Black Pot Cooking Meat to complain, as Caramel had already drawn the Moonlight Sword in his hand.

A flash of moonlight… Instantly, the sound of clashing blades echoed throughout the Path to Ascension.

Caramel, wielding the Shadowless Sword, was already in a clash with Thorne’s pitch-black longsword.

“No need to get so heated, right? Holy Spirit… I’m just here to lend a hand.”

Thorne was no longer dressed in rags, but in a set of pitch-black Oblivion Legion light armor.

“Why forfeit!” Caramel couldn’t care less whether Thorne had joined the Abyss or the Oblivion Legion; he just wanted to know why Thorne had given up on the top sixteen match.

“The little games you Holy Spirits play—I’ve humored you by participating, and you took it seriously? Now I have important things to do. Could you maybe… step aside?”

This remark from Thorne completely infuriated Caramel. He had poured so much effort into the Fureya Cup, striving to beat all his competitors and claim the championship.

But in Thorne’s eyes, the so-called Holy Spirit League and the Fureya Cup were just child’s play.

“Do you really think you’re invincible?”

The Moonlight Sword in Caramel’s hand and Thorne’s black sword emitted a harsh grating sound. As the two blades crossed, the dense, rain-like sound of sword impacts resounded between them.

Amidst the clashing of swords and the sparks they created, nothing else was visible but the flames that burst forth. Finally, under Caramel’s roar of fury, their weapons collided forcefully, and with a surge of strength, Thorne sent Caramel flying away.

“In your group, at least, you’re still too naive, Holy Spirit.” Thorne handled his black sword with ease, resting it on his shoulder, but in the next second, Caramel unleashed the Fierce Dragon Breaking Air Slash and struck at Thorne again.

Their skirmish also drew the attention of the Obliteration Legion who did not care about one-on-one fights. The Obliteration Legion’s Army Commander Deris wanted to intervene, but suddenly a dragon’s roar and the sound of a gun resonated, launching an attack on Deris!

With a raise of his shield, Deris blocked the Telekinesis Beast·Dragon Tiger Roar from Zhao Mingwei and grabbed the long spear Juan Canyun had thrust at him in his other hand.

“Do you Holy Spirits really insist on stopping us?” Deris said, staring coldly at Zhao Mingwei.

“Stop you? I just want you to disappear from this world!”

Zhao Mingwei’s fist, which hit the shield hard, suddenly lunged forward with a punch, and his violent telekinesis passed through the shield, hitting Deris directly and throwing him off balance.

“Stop them!” the moment Deris staggered back, he yelled at three other soldiers from the Obliteration Legion.

He meant for them to stop Caramel and Bai Di. As the three soldiers from the Obliteration Legion drew their weapons and charged toward Caramel and Bai Di, a long spear descended from the sky and landed before them in an instant.

The powerful Sword Qi attached to the spear even shattered the ground, slowing the footsteps of the three Obliteration Legion’s soldiers for a moment.
