These cultivators had sustained multiple injuries and spent large amounts of energy. At this point, most of them would not be
able to take out a target with just one hit as James and Xzavion did.
However, James and Xzavion did that rather effortlessly.
These famous, genius cultivators from different Genesis Worlds were intimidated by James’ and Xzavion’s skills and powers.
On the other hand, James and Xzavion had overcome the crisis temporarily.
Yet, they knew a bigger challenge was waiting for them.
“Splendid!” The tombkeeper gave a low chuckle.
Suddenly, everyone could feel tremors coming from the ground. All of them turned their gazes in the direction where loud noises
could be heard.
In the distance, ten spiritual mountains appeared to be falling apart. From each of those mountains, a stone puppet which was
around two meters tall climbed out and started heading this way.
With each step they took, the stone puppets were causing the earth to shake so much that it felt like the entire realm was about
to be destroyed.
James and the others could sense a vicious energy radiating from the stone puppets.
“You can either work together to destroy the puppet warriors one by one or each of you can fight one puppet warrior on your
own. I’ll leave it to you to decide.” The tombkeeper said flatly, “At the same time, you need to work on eliminating your
competitors. Once you exterminate these ten puppet warriors, the ultimate warrior will be released.”
“All in all, only one person gets to receive Franciscus’ legacy. That is the only rule you need to bear in mind.”
The tombkeeper had a look of amusement in his eyes as he sat on Franciscus’ coffin and looked at the cultivators.
After looking at the puppet warriors, the other cultivators exchanged glances.
Then, they fixed their gazes on James and Xzavion.
All of them agreed that James and Xzavion were a greater source of threat when compared to the ten puppet warriors.
“Damn it!” Xzavion cursed furiously. “These guys are staring at us! They probably plan to kill us first before they work together to
fight against the puppet warriors.”
James furrowed his brows as he listened to Xzavion.
“Oh, right!” The tombkeeper raised his brows. “In your current conditions, you won’t be able to defeat the puppet warriors.”
The tombkeeper lifted his palm and generated a mysterious flow of energy.
That energy flowed from his palm and fell onto those cultivators’ bodies like raindrops.
In a matter of seconds, everyone could sense that their injuries were healed and their powers were fully restored.
Xzavion felt a pure energy coursing through his veins to every part of his body.
Even his broken Soul Genesis was healed.
“Huh?” Xzavion grinned broadly.
He had not been able to unleash his full powers since his Soul Genesis was damaged.
Suddenly, Xzavion started laughing. He felt confident about his mission now that he regained his full powers.
James also detected how Xzavion’s powers had grown stronger.
“Stop laughing!” James frowned slightly. “They have made a pact. We need to think of a way to defeat them.”
Xzavion shrugged. “We have no choice but to go up against four people each.”
“Are you sure you can handle four men at the same time?” James asked.
Xzavion shook his head. “Nope. However, I can try to keep four of them busy while you eliminate the other four. Then, you need
to hurry over and help me.”
Even though his powers were enhanced, Xzavion would still have difficulty battling four genius cultivators simultaneously.
“Alright! Let’s give your plan a try.” James nodded.
“You, you, you, and you! Come here!” Xzavion pointed at Wayra, Lumia, the Jercente Sect’s member, and Slade.
He felt that these people were the strongest cultivators out of the bunch
