Chapter 1067 Four Main Sects

Hadriel flashed a dazzling smile, seemingly very satisfied with Barry’s answer. Since this old man is adamant about courting death, he shouldn’t blame me for being unmerciful.

“Everything I’ve done is for the better development of the secret world. If you insist on doing this, don’t blame me for not showing you any mercy!” Hadriel said righteously.

Taking in Hadriel’s pretentious demeanor, Barry felt a surge of disgust. How dare a man like him, who killed his father and brother, utter such noble words? How despicable!

Barry had already braced himself to face death when he publicly opposed Hadriel. No matter what, he would absolutely not allow the people from the secret world to enter the real world in that manner.

“Well, I’d like to see how unmerciful you can be!” As he spoke, Barry’s aura burst forth at once, the pressure from a second-phase Grandmaster spreading out.

Everyone present was shocked by the aura emitted by Barry. They hadn’t expected Barry to have reached the second phase of Grandmaster Realm.

Barry was considered an elder in the secret world, as well as one of the earliest few to reach the Grandmaster Realm. Grandmasters were few and far between, and there were only six of them in the secret world.

The four main sects were the Leight Sect, the Flame Sect, the Wind Sect, and the Moon Sect. The Moon Sect’s leader was also a Grandmaster. However, he passed away several years ago. Their current leader was Xander Stone, and he was the previous sect leader’s only son. Although the Moon Sect’s leader had passed, they still had a Grandmaster like Barry to watch over the sect.

The other two Grandmasters were from Raven Sect. Back when Quintus was alive, Raven Sect boasted three Grandmasters.

Among them, Titus Snyder was the strongest. He was recognized by everyone in the secret world as the strongest person, having attained the second phase of the Grandmaster Realm more than thirty years ago. He had been cultivating in seclusion for the past thirty years, so no one knew how terrifying his capabilities were at that point.

Meanwhile, others were at the first phase of the Grandmaster Realm, but they couldn’t advance further in their cultivation due to the scarcity of the Mana available inside the secret world.

Despite surviving in that environment that lacked Mana, Barry had astonishingly reached the second phase of the Grandmaster Realm. Everyone finally realized why he dared to challenge Hadriel.

Hadriel was also astounded to learn Barry was a second-phase Grandmaster. However, he had come too far to back down now. If he did, it would appear as if he was afraid of the old man.

Hadriel grasped the seal in his hand and instructed the other three sect leaders, “As the Great Sect Leader, I hereby order you to capture the defier, Barry Stone. If he resists, kill him!”

At his command, the three sect leaders had no choice but to join the fight regardless of their reluctance. No one dared to object to Hadriel’s order and could only brace themselves to step forward.

The three sect leaders and Hadriel stood in a line. Immediately afterward, they charged toward Barry, launching lethal attacks at the latter.

Despite the numerical advantage held by the four first-phase Grandmasters, they were still unable to Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

Four Main Sects

disconcert a second-phase Grandmaster.

Barry was unfazed by their attacks. He managed to gain the upper hand effortlessly, even when dealing with the quartet single-handedly. If the fight dragged on in that manner, Hadriel and his party would undoubtedly lose.

Barry launched an attack that sent the four flying backward dozens of steps. If Barry had intended to do away with them, he could’ve done so by exerting full force in his move carlier.

However, as a fellow member of the secret world and a kind-hearted man, Barry wouldn’t be so ruthless toward his comrades. He had merely forced them to retreat.

“Hadriel, I am not opposing you for no reason. I just want you to understand that now is not the time to occupy the real world yet,” Barry persuaded Hadriel earnestly.

Although the quartet was no match for Barry, even when they joined forces, Hadriel showed no sign of frustration or resentment. Instead, he smirked and said, “Barry, your words have no effect on me. You should worry about yourself before minding other’s business!”

Barry couldn’t fathom the intention behind Hadriel’s remark. All of a sudden, Barry felt his heart tighten as if a hand was clenched around it, threatening to squeeze his heart until it burst.

That sensation was too abrupt. Caught off guard, Barry clutched at his chest and spat out a mouthful of black blood.
