Chapter 2086
Jackie replied without turning around to look at them, “So, do you think that we should have chosen to
stay inside instead? That way, we would not have suffered any losses, right?” There was no change in
Jackie’s expression when he spoke but anybody smart enough could hear the anger in Jackie’s words.
Jed was quick to judge. He was full of praises when things were going smoothly but he was not one to
hold back judgment whenever something bad was happening.
Jed dared not raise his head to look at Jackie. However, there was a hint of not being convinced in his
lowered eyes. “I did not say so. I just feel that we came out in a hurry. If we were able to stay inside for a
couple more days, such issues would not have happened.”
Jackie humphed lightly and he continued to stare forward with his eagle-like eyes. “Then why didn’t you
say this earlier on? You kept quiet previously but you speak more than anybody else when something
has happened.” Jackie had never been somebody who liked to talk. However, this did not mean that he
would allow others to use him as they wished to.
Jed’s facial expression mellowed and he wanted to refute Jackie. However, Dwight could not endure this
anymore and said, “You should shut up. What’s the use of saying such things when we’re already in this
situation.”
Jed was so angry that his lips were trembling. He red at Dwight’s stressed expression with an
usatory look in his eyes. He was angry at Dwight for scolding him on behalf of an outsider. Dwight
was in no mood to acknowledge what Jed was thinking about. Right now, they might be facing the most
dangerous situation of their lifetime.
They did not lower their voices as they fought and Robin heard every word they said. The smile on his
face grew and he thought how fun the situation before his eyes was. Robin narrowed his eyes as he
sized Jackie up and said, “Young man, you don’t seem to be worried. Aren’t you afraid that we will cut
you people into piecester? You might not know what sort of a sect our Corpse Pavilion is. Shall I
exin our sect to you?”

What Robin said was filled with ridicule yet Jackie did not even look up when he heard this. There was
no need for any exnation as to what sort of a sect the Corpse Pavilion was, the name was self-
exnatory. They were definitely a bunch of vicious and merciless people who practiced ck martial
arts. In fact, Robin said this to inform Jackie that they would not kill Jackie and the rest easily. They n
to torture these people until they get their hands on everything Jackie and the rest knew.
It was known when the wind started blowing and the breeze swept past Jackie’s sideburns. Strands of
Jackie’s hair were sticking on his cheek. There were no changes in Jackie’s expression even though
Robin said some threatening words. He turned around and nced at the four people beside him. He did
some calctions and said in a serious tone, “Brother Dwight and Jed, can the two of you help to pin
those three down with the help of Brother Albion? There won’t be any need for my father as his strength
is iparable to a single blow from these people.”
The others were stunned when they heard what Jackie said. Everybody looked at Jackie with puzzled
expressions on their faces. Robin sneered and stared at Jackie as if he was a fool. “You asked them to
pin those down… Do you think you can get rid of one of me fast enough to free up your hands to fight the
others?”
The more Robin thought about it, the funnier he felt Jackie was. Who did he think he was? He was just a
martial artist in the initial stage of the innate level yet he dared to say such raving words. Did he hit his
head somewhere or had he just woken up and was not in his right mind. Although Dwight thought of
Jackie differently, the corners of his mouth also twitched when he heard this. He did not know how to
respond at that moment.

Chapter 2087
In the end, Albion was the one who spoke. He lowered his voice and spoke as he narrowed his eyes.
“Brother Jackie, what do you mean by saying that?
Jackie raised his eyebrows and did not n to continue wasting time talking to them. He replied
confidently, “Leave that guy in the middle to me and you guys can focus on holding the others off.” Jackie
pointed at Robin, who stood in the middle. His lengthy finger shone under the remaining light from the
sun and looked powerful instead of showing off its delicateness.
Robin almost wondered if he had been experiencing hallucinations. If not, how did this guy dare say such
absurd words? He was actually daring enough to challenge Robin for a duel. A person in the initial stage
of innate level with clothes that obviously indicated his position as a disciple in a third-grade sect was
actually daring enough to challenge him, someone, who was in the final stage of the innate level. On top
of that, he was already in thepletion stage of his innate level and was about to break through into
the spring-solidifying realm after some time!
Derekughed so loudly that he was unable to stand up straight. He pointed at Jackie and said, “Young
man, have you gone crazy? How dare you challenge our senior brother in a one-on-one duel! Who gave
you the courage to do that? Open your eyes and take a closer look! My Senior Brother Robin is in the
final stage of the innate level. He’s capable of defeating you single-handedly. Do you even think that you
can defeat him within a short period of time beforeing at us? I’ve seen some idiots throughout the
years but this is the first time I’ve seen someone as bad as you!”
Dwight subconsciously exchanged nces with Albion. In Dwight’s opinion, what Jackie said sounded
ridiculous and he felt that Jackie had gone crazy. Dwight had unexinable confidence toward Jackie
because of how they managed to get out of the Ten Absolutes Trap Array depending on Jackie.
However, there was not any basis for him to ce his confidence in Jackie under such circumstances.
Albion exhaled deeply as a darkened expression appeared on his face. He was thinking that their best
bet right now was to let everybody get a chance at escaping. Staying back to fight those four seemed like
a suicidal move.
Chapter 2088 He did not want all his n brothers to die here, but when Jackie said those words, both
his expression and tone were calm. An unspeakable self-confidence filled his heart, and Albion could not
help but wonder if Jackie really possessed this kind of power.
After thinking for a long time, he finally decided to open his mouth. His voice was a little low but had an
unquestionable tone to it. “We can do it but can you?”
Jed’s hair stood on end when he heard the question, He turned to Albion and said, “Brother Albion, don’t
tell me you’re seriously considering it? What is there except for death if we go head-on against those four
who are in the final stage of innate level? Didn’t you hear Robin when he said he will torture us?
Everyone will eventually die but I want to die with dignity, not this way!”

Albion stopped his nagging with a wave of his hand. He took a deep breath and then said, “I don’t
actually know what to do. The best thing to do now is of course to retreat but do you think we can? We
might end up dead anyways…”
Robin and the rest of them patiently waited for their unending conversation to finish. They did not mind
watching them struggle since they were like fishes in a barrel right now. This would only make what was
going to happen next more enjoyable for them. They all loved to watch their prey put up a final
resistance.
Jed threw up his hands in frustration. “You’re all mad! One mad person is enough and yet all of you
chose to follow this mad person!”
Dwight frowned, stretched out his hand to grab Jed’s arm, and pull him behind. “Keep your mouth shut
from now on. Can you do something other than nagging?” He really wanted to warn Jed that previously,
they had treated Jackie with the same attitude, and yet he was the one who saved them in the end.
Although Dwight did not believe that Jackie could create another miracle as it was not possible, it was
still better than nothing.
Jackie nodded and turned toward Robin again. “Don’t let any of them escape. Spare no one.” The words
came out steadily from his lips.
Robinughed wildly when he heard those words. He thought that Jackie was an interesting soul. Those
lines should be uttered by Robin. Did Jackie think that by saying that, he would let them go?
Derek looked at Jackie as if he was stupid. “To be honest, I have seen a lot of fools over the years, but I
must say that you take the cake!”
Jackie scoffed and winked at Nash, who then nodded and quickly hid behind a thick tree. Robin and the
other three would be suspicious if anyone other than Nash did that but they ignored him since he was the
weakest of them all. To them, those in the final stage of acquired level were like ants that could easily be
killed with a stomp.
Jackie took a step forward and stretched out his hand to take out ten gray-ck daggers from the
Mustard Seed Spirit Ship. These ten gray-ck daggers floated in front of him and were radiating a
grayck glow.
Seeing this, Robin and the others widened their eyes. Robin sneered and said, “Looks like you’re really
going to take us on! Your courage ismendable, boy!”
Jackie said nothing. With a flick of his wrists, rays of gray-ck light flowed from his palms. Under these
circumstances, actions speak louder than words.
Chapter 2089 Robin smiled so much that the corners of his lips touched his ears. He winked at the
people behind him, and the three brothers stepped forward to face Jed and the others. It looked as if
they were there to prevent them from escaping,
Robin cracked his neck and shook his wrist; the joints made a crackling sound. “Okay! Since you want to
fight with me so much, I will show you the true meaning of power!
After saying this, he felt that he was making a fuss out of nothing. He turned to the three brothers behind
him and said, “You guys make sure those three don’t run away. I’ll take down this kid single handedly. I’m
not taking this seriously of course, but this kid must be taught a lesson!”

Immediately, a golden light shed in Robin’s hand, and a five-feet-long staff appeared in his palm out of
thin air. The five-feet-long staff exuded bright golden light and there were mysterious and antiquated
runes carved all over it.
His choice of weapon surprised Jackie. After all, he did not look like a power type of cultivator. Generally,
cultivators who use staff win by strength, and their cultivation techniques and martial skills are also
power-oriented.
Robin swept the long staff forward, and the ground was marked with an arc. “The martial skill He practice
is the intermediate red level earth mountain staff technique. It’s been a long time since I havee
across an opponent like you so I will use this technique to teach you the right way to live!”
Another intermediate red level technique?’ Jackie thought that Robin’s technique would at least be in the
premium range. After all, Wesley was only an intermediate stage of innate level and his attainment was
already an intermediate red level technique.
Robin, who was hellbent on torturing Jackie, did not say anything further and pointed his long staff at
Jackie. The golden light undted around the long staff like waves. With a low shout, he charged toward
Jackie.
He lifted his long staff with golden light and smashed it toward Jackie. The stick carried the force of the
mountains and rivers. Even from some distance away, Jed and others could feel the force of the earth
mountain.
Jed gulped and said, “The force is so powerful that even I would not be able to withstand it.”
In an instant, the long staff appeared in front of Jackie, who was steadily moving his hands through the
gray light then distorted runes began to float out of his palm. In an instant, the ten Soul Swords were
injected by him into the gray-ck daggers suspended in the air. With the Soul Swords attached to the
daggers, it was as if the daggers had been infused with a soul and they immediately converged together.
Five gray-ck daggers met against the long staff head-on as soon as it came smashing down and the
gray-ck light and the golden dazzling long staff mmed together. The energy from the two weapons
collided together and the gray-ck daggers did not retreat in the slightest, nor was it smashed into
pieces by the staff.
Seeing this, Robin stiffened. His eyes widened with disbelief. While it was true he did not exert his full
power just now, he did, however, used quite a lot of it to make it a speedy battle. It never crossed his
mind that Jackie would be able to neutralize his attack and it destabilized him a little. He gritted his teeth
and raised his staff for another attack.
Chapter 2090
Jackie arched his eyebrow He quickly put some distance between Robin and himself his opponent was a
melee fighter while Jackie was better at long range fighting so he would be safe as long as he did not get
too close to Robin
He quickly performed some hand seals again and the ten ck daggers who were still suspended mid
air parried with Robin’s long staff. The golden light and gray-ck light collided with each other once
again. This time Jackie used six gray ck daggers, putting him on even ground with Robin
Robin was breathing heavily and his face was flushed. He was feeling angrier than ever. His hands
trembled as he looked at Jackie with gritted teeth. He swung his staff to attack again, but all of his
attacks were neutralized within a few seconds by the grayck daggers
He became more and more shocked whenever his attack was blocked by the gray-ck daggers. He
was not the only one as the others were also watching with eyes wide open as if they had seen a ghost.
The corners of Jed’s lips began to twitch. “Pinch me, Brother Dwight. Am I dreaming? How is it possible
that Jackie is on par with Robin? They had been going at it for quite some time. Is this really happening?
I’m not dreaming, right?” His pupils were unsteady a she said this
Dwight puffed out some air and said, “It just showed that there’s a lot of things we don’t know in the
world.”
All this while, Jackie maintained some distance away from Robin, who was trying desperately to break
through the barrier made of the ten gray-ck daggers. However, he discovered that the barrier was like
a sticky spider web and the long staff in his hand was like a tiny bug. The ten gray-ck daggers worked
with each other and the stronger the staff became, the more daggers woulde out. In the beginning,
there were only five daggers, then seven, and now there were eight daggers blocking his path.
It seemed like no matter how powerful he was, he would not be able to break away from the web made
up of the gray-ck daggers. Robin’s hands trembled slightly as he stared at Jackie vehemently and
thought to himself, ‘So this is why he was so confident. He still had a few tricks up his sleeves.
Robin narrowed his eyes and said, “You surprised me but do you really think you can suppress me with
your little tricks? Though my technique is only of the intermediate red level, I’ve already cultivated it to
perfection!
Hearing this, the eyes of everyone present snapped wide open. The fact that Robin cultivated his
technique to perfection alone proved that he possessed immense talent. Jed and Dwight nced at each
other, and both saw a hint of helplessness in each other’s eyes. Although their level had broken through
to the final stage of innate level, their martial art techniques remained at the proficient level.
Derek and his two brothers were looking at Jackie fearfully which was a huge contrast to how they were
looking at him before. They were sure that the power he had conjured up so far could defeat them three
easily.
Robin scoffed and said, “I admit that you’re quite talented but it’s still not enough to defeat me! Let’s end
this now!” The way he uttered those words was as if he had not used his full power in the fight before but
judging from everyone’s looks, they did not believe him one bit.
Robin then exhaled deeply and forced himself to calm down.
