"Heaven's Gate, Fancang Martial Saint!"
Upon hearing the purpose of Fancang Martial Saint's visit, the Hermit and the Tower's expressions turned grim.
"Your Excellency, do you not take us seriously at all!"
The Hermit said coldly, his killing intent fully revealed.
As core members of the Tarot Society, when had they ever endured such humiliation?
"Your Excellency, leave now, and no one will get hurt. Otherwise, you might die here."
The Tower stood up in anger, but did not launch an immediate attack. He shared the same thought as the Hermit, wanting to persuade Fancang Martial Saint to leave.
The Magician beside them could no longer hold on, his aura growing weaker and weaker. He needed to be returned to the Tarot Society for treatment as soon as possible.
"One is at the third level of the Saint Realm, having just touched upon the Law of Space. The other is at the second level of the Saint Realm, with nothing special."
"With such strength, do you have the qualifications to threaten me?"
Fancang Martial Saint shook his head disdainfully.
"You!"
The Hermit was utterly shocked. He couldn't understand how Fancang Martial Saint had seen through his contact with the Law of Space.
Moreover, from Fancang Martial Saint's tone, he seemed to look down on his nascent understanding of the Law of Space.
This was the Law of Space, not some ordinary law. It was the very thing he prided himself on, and it was through this that he had soared to become the Hermit of the Tarot Society.
"Who exactly are you, and why are you targeting us?"
"We three are merely three core members of the Tarot Society. The Tarot Society has a total of twenty-two core members, including experts in the Martial God Realm."
The Hermit tried to suppress his shock and hoped to make Fancang Martial Saint leave by revealing this information.
Martial Gods were the absolute peak combat power on Earth, possessing terrifying strength capable of overthrowing a small nation.
"But you are not Martial Gods."
Fancang Martial Saint slowly shook his head, then looked at the Magician.
"My flames contain the Law of Fire. Unless one has mastered the Law of Fire or possesses a Martial God who can counter the Law of Fire, they cannot dispel it."
"With me here, you cannot leave."
"So it was you!"
Upon hearing Fancang Martial Saint's words, the Hermit and the Tower realized that the culprit causing the Magician such agony was none other than the Fancang Martial Saint before them.
Rage burned within them, but the raging flames surrounding them prevented them from making any rash moves.
Several kilometers around were engulfed in flames.
These flames made them feel a deep sense of threat.
These were flames that could burn them.
"Hermit, is it not done yet?"
The Tower felt anxious. He had been waiting for the Hermit to complete the teleportation channel to escape, as Fancang Martial Saint's pressure was too immense.
But the Hermit beside him had made no move, leaving him unsure of what to do.
"To show off the Law of Space in front of me, how laughable."
At that moment, Fancang Martial Saint above said contemptuously, then pointed his finger. A crisp shattering sound echoed.
The space behind the Hermit and the Tower shattered like a mirror.
A large mouthful of blood spurted from the Hermit's mouth. He looked at Fancang Martial Saint in disbelief.
"Your Law of Space, why is it so powerful!"
He had been secretly using the Law of Space to create an escape route, and he never expected it to be shattered by Fancang Martial Saint just as it was about to be completed.
Laws were the prerequisite for Martial Gods to reach higher realms. Those who could comprehend laws at the Martial Saint realm were extremely rare existences.
The Hermit never expected that his pride and joy, the Law of Space, would be completely useless against Fancang Martial Saint.
"You do not need to know this."
"Your death is imminent. Fire Dragon Formation!"
As he spoke, Fancang Martial Saint waved his hand, and the flames surrounding the three members of the Tarot Society instantly transformed into fire dragons, attacking them.
"You were stalling for time, and so was I. To capture you all in one go still requires some effort."
Fancang Martial Saint looked at the three Tarot Society members with a cold expression.
He had not made a move earlier because he was waiting for his formation to be completed.
He had the absolute strength to kill the three Tarot Society members, but he could not be sure if they had any other trump cards. Using the Fire Dragon Formation was the most secure choice.
Watching the Hermit and the Tower below struggle to resist under the Fire Dragon Formation, while the Magician beside them was already being engulfed by flames.
"Magician!"
The Hermit and the Tower, noticing this situation, wanted to rush to his rescue, but the ceaselessly attacking fire dragons left them exhausted from defending themselves.
"It's almost time."
Seeing that the moment was ripe, Fancang Martial Saint continuously condensed his power, his surrounding flames shooting straight into the sky.
Under his guidance, the fire dragons within the Fire Dragon Formation converged into a colossal fire dragon thousands of meters long, its roars echoing from its maw.
This scene stunned The Hermit and The Tower; they had never witnessed such a terrifying technique.
"Go!"
Amidst their shock, the massive fire dragon turned and swooped down towards them.
"The Tower!"
"Don't hesitate!"
The Hermit shouted upon seeing this. If this terrifying fire dragon landed on them, they would surely perish.
"I know!"
"Rise!"
The Tower roared, the armor encasing his body instantly expanding, transforming into a colossal tower that enveloped the three of them.
"The Hermit, use this time, quickly!!"
The Tower bellowed. The moment his armor transformed into the giant tower, his body began to show signs of decay, his aura rapidly weakening. This was a defense sustained by his life force.
The fire dragon collided with the giant tower in an instant, the terrifying force leveling tens of kilometers around them. The enormous tower turned crimson under the fire dragon's scorching heat, showing signs of melting.
Seeing this, The Hermit quickly pulled out a compass, pouring his spatial laws into it.
"What about the Magician?"
Looking at the Magician, who was still burning, The Hermit asked.
"Can't worry about him, we need to leave first."
The Tower's voice became extremely hoarse, his body growing intensely hot as he used his life to extend the tower's duration.
With The Hermit's rapid manipulation, a spatial portal appeared before them.
"Quick, get in!"
The Hermit urged, looking at the opened spatial portal. But when he looked back, he saw flames engulfing The Tower.
"The Tower!"
The Hermit couldn't believe it. Despite the giant tower's defense, The Tower was still being consumed by flames. Without further thought, he rushed to The Tower's side, quickly lifting him and running towards the spatial portal. The scorching flames were burning his own body.
As he passed the Magician, The Hermit still wanted to bring him along.
Crack, Bang!
But before he could act, the tower protecting them shattered with a roar, and the colossal fire dragon instantly swallowed them.
Just as he was about to be consumed by the fire dragon and perish, The Hermit used his spatial laws to teleport himself and The Tower to the spatial portal, successfully escaping. The Magician, unable to be saved, turned to ash.
"They escaped heavily wounded?"
"I didn't expect them to have such a treasure."
Fancang Martial Saint expressed some regret. He had thought he could eliminate all three members of the Tarot Society this time, but he had underestimated their foundation.
"Magician confirmed dead, The Hermit and The Tower escaped heavily wounded. Without the aid of supreme treasures, they won't be able to make any moves for years."
"Return and report to the Heavenly Lord."
With that, a spatial portal leading to a Small World opened, and Fancang Martial Saint stepped into it.
Not long after Fancang Martial Saint's departure, two figures arrived at the scene at high speed. Looking at the tens of kilometers leveled below, they were both extremely shocked.
"A Martial Saint unleashed their full power here in battle, and it seems to have ended with one side's defeat."
"Report this matter!"
