Roar of the Supreme Warrior novel Chapter 1208

“Ninth-rank is the pinnacle of martial art strength. However, it’s nigh impossible to make a breakthrough into the ninth rank. With what limited lifespan humans have, it’s impossible to climb the Skyward Stairway. The Skyward Stairway of the ninth rank has never been reached by any human being.

“Only by achieving immortality can one climb the Skyward Stairway and reach the ninth rank.

“The Spirit Turtle has lived for many years. Once I kill it and drink its blood, I will achieve immortality and obtain enormous strength.”

The more Thomas spoke, the more agitated he was.

“Once I have an unlimited lifespan, I can establish a new dynasty.”

“You’re insane!” Simon cried out.

“I’m not insane,” Thomas corrected him. Then, he turned to look at Simon and instantly appeared before him.

Looking at Simon, he asked, “Don’t you wish to attain immortality? You’re nearing your end too. Aren’t you fearful of death? Aren’t you afraid of the nothingness after death?”

“Thomas, you are being delusional,” Simon said coldly. “There’s no evidence whatsoever that drinking the Spirit Turtle’s blood will help us attain immortality. This information was left behind by the Prince of Orchid Mountain, who wasn’t quite sure of its authenticity himself. Besides, you aren’t capable of slaying the Spirit Turtle.”

“I’m not so sure about that.”

Wearing a confident look, Thomas said, “Do you know what people have gathered here at the Mount Thunder Sect?”

“There’s Callan Maverick who reached the seventh rank a century ago. Now, he has reached the peak of the eighth rank and climbed the third stair of the Skyward Stairway. His Decimation of Immortality is unrivaled in the world and can neutralize all incoming attacks.

“There’s also Winston Blithe whose Blithe Fist of Abomination would decimate all enemies.

“Let’s also not forget Bennett Caden whose Thirteen Heavenly Swords would shake the heaven and earth.”

“Also, there’s Yaakov Johnston. The Whirlwind Sword Technique of the Johnstons is remarkable indeed.

“There’s also Xavi Lee whose Dragon Hymn is unparalleled in the world.

“Thomas, have you ever considered the possibility of failure?”

Staring at Thomas, he asked, “Do you know what failure would entail? If the Spirit Turtle charges out of Mount Thunder, many innocent lives would be lost.”

“Simon, you underestimate the technological advances of this era. Even if things get out of control, there’s no way the Spirit Turtle would leave this place alive. A few missiles are all we need to exterminate it,” Thomas said coolly.

“And what if I disagree?” Simon stared at Thomas.

“Oh, you will.” Thomas said coldly, “You knew of the Spirit Turtle’s existence and purpose. There’s no way you’ll be able to restrain the urge. Due to your ancestral teachings, however, you are unable to reveal this secret. I have brought a group of powerful martial artists here who are unaware of the Spirit Turtle’s existence and secret. By combining forces and slaying the Spirit Turtle, their True Energy will be severely depleted. By then…”

Thomas’ face darkened.

“We will wipe them out.

“From today onwards, the Mount Thunder Sect will reign supreme.”
