The Cloaked Man would never have imagined it.
The young man before him was no Seventh Tier Awakened, but a Ninth Tier Expert from the future, whose strength was already comparable to a Divinity Ninth Tier being!
Ninth Rank?
Divinity Ninth Tier?
The Cloaked Man had heard of the former, but had never seen an expert of that level.
The strongest experts he had ever encountered.
Their limit was the Seventh Tier.
To him, beings at the Ninth Rank were no different from gods. They were peerless figures shrouded in halos, existing only in legends.
As for Divinity Ninth Tier beings... he had never even heard of them.
Meanwhile.
Jiang Qiao naturally had no idea what the Cloaked Man was thinking, nor any interest in finding out. Fighting three enemies alone was anything but easy, even with his knowledge and experience.
The disparity in raw strength was right there—a chasm that was difficult to bridge.
Therefore.
Whenever he seized an opening.
He had to go all out and tear that opening wide, forcing the battle into his own rhythm and giving his opponents no chance to catch their breath.
Otherwise.
Once they reacted.
They would realize that although he looked terrifying, his actual killing power was not that frightening. At the very least, a Fifth Tier Expert could clash with him head-on without issue.
That would be troublesome.
"This shadow comes and goes like a ghost. It's a major headache for any expert of the same level."
"But for me."
"He's actually the weakest of the three."
"Kill him first!"
"Reduce the pressure!"
Jiang Qiao thought this to himself, but his expression remained as calm as still water.
He was as fast as lightning.
He frantically circulated his bodily potential, releasing every bit of his supernatural power to the limit.
