The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 1405

The sea was dark and stretched out endlessly. If someone were to look closely at this moment, he would be able to see a string of faint electric light moving quickly on top of the surface of the waters. This was what Alex looked like while he was running swiftly after filling his legs with the lightning attribute spiritual power. His two legs leaked a slight current due to the high running speed. ‘At the speed I’m running, I should have shaken that guy off, right?’ Alex thought to himself. However, that faintly discernible mental power that had locked onto him was still there. His eyes shifted as he glanced to the back. At a glance, he almost started cursing. That guy actually came after him again. But soon, he quickly discovered something. The masked man’s pig mask had disappeared, revealing his real face. When Alex took a close look at the face, he was utterly stunned. ‘It’s the Lord Commander from Department Six, Grant Xenos!’ ‘Sh*t, this is too much. This old b*stard, how shameless can he be!’ ‘But, how could he possibly know about the Holy Book? And, he even believes that it’s still on me? And, he also said the Holy Book originally belonged to him?’ A barrage of questions popped into Alex’s mind. He suddenly recalled something. His mother, Brittany, had once said that his father had been convicted of being a traitor to the country and his death was related to a very powerful force in America. Because of this, she had concealed the reasons and refused to tell him no matter what, fearing that he would suddenly get impulsive to offend the said powerful force, and then brought about murderous disasters. It seemed that the powerful force was very likely to be Department Six, and the one behind it all, was Grant Xenos! The important point here was that the old b*sard was currently standing in a translucent tortoise shell and speeding on the sea, as if he was riding a boat. Such means was just too shocking. However, a whim struck him. ‘He has a tortoise shell, I have one too!’ ‘No, no, that’s not right. Not only do I have a tortoise shell, but I also have the Sword of the Universe as well as the Seven Blades of Death.’ ‘Imperial Sword Flight!’ The thought suddenly came to his mind. There was such a thing in the legacy of the Ultimate Book of Medicine. However, that was a technique that required someone to be promoted to the Core Formation realm in order to use it. However, he was currently on the sea. By borrowing the buoyancy of the sea, it may be possible to barely achieve the same effect. ‘Seven Blades of Death, expand!’ The Dragon Bone Sword could change its size at will. Under Alex’s will, the Seven Blades of Death became the size of a door, and he jumped onto it. Swoosh! The Seven Blades of Death flew forward above the sea. The speed was now three times faster than before. Grant, who was following behind, was stunned after witnessing the scene. He muttered to himself, “Imperial Sword Flight, Imperial Sword Flight, the Holy Book… These are not martial art secrets at all, but cultivation techniques. They’re the secrets of the gods!” At this moment, Grant’s desire for the Holy Book had reached another level. Being in such a high position, he naturally came into contact with many more things than ordinary people. He was not a stranger to the path of cultivation. However, in today’s society, firearms were more revered, and the recovery of ancient martial arts had only started to pick up in the recent decades. As for cultivation… He had heard that the cultivation sects of thousands of years ago had long since disappeared, and there was no trace of where they had gone. Even if there were legacies being passed down, they would still be incomplete. In America, and even in the entire world, there were very few things of cultivators that had been heard about. The only source of information regarding cultivation was the Blood Cult that had fallen a hundred years ago! ‘I must have the Holy Book!’ The Lord Commander’s speed picked up sharply once again. However, it still couldn’t catch up with Alex’s speed, which had increased three times. Furthermore, his speed was still increasing. Seeing the gap between both parties getting bigger, the mental power could no longer be locked onto Alex. To his surprise, thunder and lightning appeared in the front. A huge storm actually appeared on the sea at night.
