The Legendary Man Chapter 1036

The Legendary Man Chapter 1036-Xavion stood atop the mountain, his face ashen as he surveyed thescene below. Can this still be considered a cliff?

Beneath his feet was initially a precipice measuring several hundred meters tall.

However, after getting struck by the powerful lightning bolt, the two peaks on both sides crumbled andcollapsed, filling in the cliff entirely.

Xavion wanted to rescue Jonathan, but he couldn’t create a passage a few hundred meters deep in ashort period despite being a God Realm cultivator who could pierce metal and stone with his spiritualenergy.

Moreover, the high density of the rocks made it incredibly difficult for his spiritual sense to explore theinterior of the wreckage.

Unless he managed to create a passage near Jonathan by sheer luck, there was no way he couldlocate the latter. The only alternative would be for Xavion to stumble around blindly while hoping hecould find Jonathan by coincidence.

Unfortunately, that was nearly impossible, considering the vast expanse of rubble in front of him.

Xavion continuously extended his spiritual sense downward, but even as he maneuvered along thecracks between the rocks, his maximum reach was only a depth of about thirty meters.

The cliff wasn’t filled with stacked boulders but with the remains of the collapsed peaks.

In many places, enormous rocks hundreds of meters long and wide had made it impossible for hisspiritual sense to pass through.

Eyes bloodshot, Xavion yelled, “Jonathan, if you’re still alive, crawl out by yourself! I don’t have muchtime to spend on rescuing you. I only have twenty-four hours to spare, and that’s how long I’ll searchfor you! If I fail to locate you, our collaboration shall end. I swear on my life that I’ll ensure your wife andchild live without worry for the rest of their lives!”

As he spoke, Xavion took out his long sword and began the long, arduous tunneling process.

Meanwhile, in the dimly lit underground river, a golden light was racing through the water with Jonathanwithin it.

The moment the bolt of electricity struck Jonathan earlier, he had mustered all his strength to throwXavion out.

Jonathan didn’t do that because he was particularly altruistic or noble. He merely sensed that thelightning was targeting him, and since he couldn’t avoid it, there was no need to drag Xavion down withhim.

Besides, he also genuinely needed Xavion to survive. After all, at that point, Xavion was the onlyperson Jonathan could trust in the entire Osborne family, and he still had to rely on Xavion’s help tosafeguard Josephine and his child.

In the final moment, when Jonathan was enveloped by lightning, he instinctively brandished themysterious bronze handbell.

However, that gesture didn’t provide him with any form of protection.

Using the bronze handbell to block a Pryncyp attack was no different from attempting to parry a cleaverwith soap bubbles.

Did the bronze handbell shield him from the attack? It certainly did. But was it effective? Absolutely not!

The purest form of energy engulfed Jonathan, and in just an instant, his body was charred.

The potent blast of lightning should’ve vaporized Jonathan, but in the last second, a powerful burst oflife force protected his circulatory system, internal organs, and head.

Jonathan was no more than a blackened lump at the moment. He couldn’t even channel his spiritualenergy due to the damage to his meridians. The bronze handbell was still operating only because ofSeboxia’s support.

At the same time, within Seboxia’s divine space, Jonathan’s limbs were bound, and he was lockedinside a metal cage.

A monk wearing white robes stood opposite him. That figure was none other than Seboxia’s manifestedform.

“Jonathan, why did you run?” Seboxia asked Jonathan with a smile.

Jonathan sat cross-legged in the middle of the low cage, sneering at Seboxia’s calm and amicableappearance.

“Your spiritual form isn’t even human, so why are you pretending to be a saint?” Jonathan wasobviously disgusted by Seboxia’s current look after he had witnessed the latter’s true form.

That was an instinctive reaction that no human cultivator could control.

It was as if someone suddenly realized a person around them was actually a beast or a demon indisguise.

Even if they had regarded one another with genuine emotions, who could truly remain unfazed andindifferent as before following the revelation?

Sensing Jonathan’s detestation, Seboxia gradually lowered his palm.

With a gentle grasp of his hand, the cage confining Jonathan abruptly shrank to less than half its initialsize.

Even as Jonathan sat cross-legged in the cage, he had to lower his head now and was forced tomaintain that uncomfortable posture.novelbin

“Jonathan, you should have been able to sense that the lightning was targeting me. If you had stoppedand allowed me to hide in the coffin, the lightning bolt wouldn’t have had as much time to charge up.So, were you trying to kill me, Jonathan?”

Jonathan couldn’t even lift his head at that point.

As Seboxia had once said, he was a god within the divine space.

Even a cage he casually created could imprison Jonathan for an eternity and never be destroyed.

With his head pressed down, Jonathan could only stare at Seboxia’s feet.

“Will you believe me if I say I wasn’t trying to kill you?” he uttered nonchalantly.

He had immediately turned and fled after sensing the terrifying power of the sea of lightning earlier,hoping to buy enough time for Seboxia to perish under the heavenly trial.

From the moment the old coffin entered Jonathan’s energy field, his life no longer belonged to him.

Although Seboxia had saved his life on multiple occasions, Jonathan did not harbor the slightestgratitude because he knew Seboxia rescued him with an ulterior motive.

Despite not fathoming the real reason why Seboxia lived parasitically within his body, Jonathan wasn’tgoing to believe Seboxia’s nonsensical claim about immortality naively.

Regrettably, even after he used the most damaging self-destruct approach to reach the fastest speed,he was still too slow compared to Seboxia.

Lying was pointless, considering Seboxia’s exceptional abilities. Not to mention, Jonathan was eventrapped inside the former’s divine space.

Hence, Jonathan decided to openly admit his plan because he understood Seboxia needed him.Therefore, he would remain safe before the latter achieved his goal.

“Do you really think I won’t dare to kill you?” Seboxia asked softly.

The next instant, the cage holding Jonathan captive shrank by half again.

The sound of bones cracking reverberated clearly in the air. Jonathan spewed out mouthfuls of bloodas his internal organs were being compressed intensely.

His forehead was deformed by the hard iron bars pressing against his face, and his eye sockets hadcompletely split open.

Still, amidst such inhuman torment, Jonathan laughed maniacally.

Jonathan’s hysterical shouts echoed in the divine space. “Kill me if you dare, Seboxia! How about wemake a bet? I bet you don’t dare to end my life! Do you think I don’t know your coffin can’t allow you tocompletely avoid your fate despite how formidable it is? When you were buried underground in WestRegion, you relied on the faith energy gathered on the Seboxia statue in Bazar Temple to conceal yourpresence. Since you escaped that place with me, you’ve been depending on my elixir and energyfield’s independence for shelter. You can’t leave me. Kill me, and let’s die together!”
