Chapter 162: Strike a cool pose!

Holy Maiden Aeliana kept her eyes closed, focusing all her energy on repairing the Blossoms of the Seven Emotions.

But at that moment, countless spectral Unicorns were already charging toward her, their roars echoing through the air.

"We have to protect Holy Maiden Aeliana!"

Vera and Autumn were on high alert, their faces tense with determination.

With swords in hand, they gritted their teeth and charged at the approaching Unicorns without hesitation.

Under normal circumstances, they would never willingly face creatures as formidable as Unicorns. But now, they had no choice but to confront them head-on.

Two streaks of sword light shot toward the herd, as Vera and Autumn became blurs of motion, slicing through the oncoming beasts.

However, they had guessed correctly—these Unicorns were terrifyingly powerful. Even with the strength of Ocean's Gate, they were no match for so many of them.

Sword light flashed, blades danced through the air.

Despite their best efforts to hold the line, Vera and Autumn were steadily pushed back, unable to keep up with the relentless assault.

"Roar!"

After forcing back three Unicorns, Vera suddenly found herself exposed, a gap in her defense.

A Unicorn, nearly twice the size of the others, had been waiting for this exact moment.

With a thunderous roar, it lunged at her.

Vera tried to block, but the Unicorn was too fast.

In the blink of an eye, it was upon her.

A dark shadow loomed over her, its roar deafening.

Vera's face turned pale. She raised her sword in front of her, but against the massive creature, it seemed almost laughably small.

"Is this the end?"

Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Holy Maiden Aeliana, still deep in concentration, radiating a serene, holy aura. Vera's heart sank—she hadn't expected that this would be as far as she could go in protecting the Holy Maiden.

But just then, a figure suddenly stepped in front of her.

A phoenix's cry pierced the air, and flames erupted skyward.

In an instant, the enormous Unicorn was engulfed in fire.

With a pained scream, the Unicorn was sent flying, crashing to the ground in agony.

"Timothy!"

Vera finally noticed the powerful aura emanating from Timothy—it had surged to the level of Ocean's Gate!

"Ocean's Gate! How did he reach this level?" Experience new stories on m v|l e-NovelFire

Even Autumn, standing nearby, was visibly shocked. Sёarch* The Novёlƒire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

The last time Timothy had come to the Blooming Sanctuary, he had just barely stepped into the Mystic Core.

Back then, everyone saw Timothy as merely a promising disciple, just beginning to show potential in the Sky Sanctuary.

And now, how much time had passed since then?

A practitioner who reaches Ocean's Gate is powerful enough to be called a Holy Emperor, capable of founding a Sect, or even a nation or dynasty.

This alone shows how rare and powerful an Ocean's Gate practitioner is.

Even with the best resources and the highest talent, no disciple from a prestigious family could possibly reach Ocean's Gate within a hundred years.

Yet Timothy had crossed this seemingly insurmountable gap in just a few months?

Before they could recover from their shock, a massive golden figure appeared behind Timothy.

"Is that... a Sacred Form?"

But this Sacred Form was unlike any other—they were covered in intricate golden patterns.

It was as if pure spiritual energy flowed through the golden lines, radiating an ancient, mysterious aura.

The giant's left eye glowed with a brilliant golden light, illuminating the entire landscape.

The power of this Sacred Form far surpassed that of any ordinary Ocean's Gate practitioner!

The giant, patterned hand descended like a mountain.

Faced with this overwhelming pressure, the Unicorns roared with all their might, unleashing a powerful windstorm toward the sky.

The fierce winds clashed with the golden hand.

But the combined strength of dozens of Unicorns was no match.

After only a brief struggle, the windstorm quickly dissipated.

The giant hand descended, stirring up a fierce wind.

Countless Unicorns were swept up in the storm, only to be violently thrown to the ground.

The earth trembled as their massive bodies crashed down, leaving cracks in the ground.

Cries of agony filled the air, and some Unicorns were crushed under the immense pressure, their bones and flesh nearly pulverized.

In the blink of an eye, half of the Unicorns that had surrounded the hillside were either dead or on the brink of death.

"Those are Unicorns! Each one is nearly as strong as an Ocean's Gate practitioner!"

Though she had just been saved, Vera could hardly believe what she was seeing.

Unicorns, the sacred beasts of the Blooming Sanctuary, were not to be underestimated. How could they be defeated so easily?

Just how powerful had Timothy become?

"Roar!"

The Unicorns guarding the Blossoms of the Seven Emotions seemed to be completely enraged. A beastly cry echoed through the air, almost like a summons.

Suddenly, the ground in the center of the herd cracked open, and a massive shadow burst forth from the earth.

All the Unicorns bowed their heads in reverence before the colossal figure.

This one was different from the others.

Not only was its body significantly larger, but it was also covered in dark golden armor, exuding an aura of authority that made its status among the Unicorns unmistakable.

This was undoubtedly the King of the Unicorns!

The Unicorn King roared furiously at Timothy, its gaze filled with a murderous intent, as if it wanted to tear him apart.

The roar reverberated through the air, unleashing an overwhelming force. The enormous Unicorn King opened its gaping maw and lunged at Timothy.

With a swift motion, Timothy slashed down with the Phoenix Blade, sending a fiery phoenix soaring toward the Unicorn King.

But the raging flames only caused the beast to pause momentarily. Emerging from the fire, the Unicorn King appeared not only unscathed but even more enraged and violent.

Timothy frowned slightly.

This was the first Unicorn that had managed to withstand one of his strikes.

"Holy Maiden is about to succeed!" Vera suddenly exclaimed.

Following her gaze, they saw Holy Maiden Aeliana standing on the hillside, her hands clasped in front of her.

With each breath she took, the Blossom of Love, symbolizing "love," began to glow with a radiant red light.

The red light grew brighter and brighter, and the immense spiritual energy flowing through it became palpable.

"Timothy, strike a cool pose!"

At that moment, Holy Maiden Aeliana suddenly opened her beautiful eyes and looked directly at Timothy.

"A cool pose?" Timothy was momentarily taken aback.

He glanced in Holy Maiden Aeliana's direction.

The red Blossom of Love continued to pulse with energy, and in that instant, light swirled in the Holy Maiden's palm.

In a flash, Timothy's image appeared in the sky above the entire Blooming Sanctuary.

At that moment, every female disciple in the Blooming Sanctuary had their eyes drawn to the sky...
