Chapter 558: Chapter 558: The Opportunity to Step into the Marquis_1

Feeling the strong aura emanating from Joshua Hess, Ethan Smith couldn’t help but frown slightly.

“Mr. Smith, did you... did you succeed?” Polly Reeves asked anxiously.

Ethan shook his head, expressing some regret, “No, I just missed it by one step.”

Joshua Hess narrowed his eyes, as if guessing something.

“It seems you have no chance of stepping into the realm of Martial Marquis,” Joshua Hess grinned.

Ethan coldly looked at Joshua Hess and said, “Joshua Hess, once I step into the Martial Marquis realm, I will personally bring down the Great Saint Sect.”

“Hahaha, it’s a pity that you won’t have that chance!” Joshua Hess shouted explosively, causing a terrifying aura to surge forward.

Streams of aura, like sharp blades, left white marks on Ethan’s tough flesh.

The next second, Joshua Hess transformed his palm into a claw, aiming directly for Ethan’s face.

Ethan didn’t dare to slack off; the Absolute Beginning Sacred Fist was unleashed in response!

Golden light streaked across the Void, striking Joshua Hess’s fingers with force!

“Clang!”

A crisp sound like an exploding bomb resounded as Ethan was forced to retreat several steps under the pressure of Joshua Hess’s realm.

“Indeed, it’s very hard to have a chance of winning against a Martial Marquis,” Ethan frowned.

Joshua Hess coldly said, “You’re just stubbornly resisting! You were allowed to escape before because the Taylor Family wanted to spare your dog life!”

“Now that your battle with Dexter Blair has ended, I have no reservations.”

His murderous spirit surged at this moment!

Feeling the murderous spirit from Joshua Hess, Ethan’s complexion changed as well!

“Die!” Joshua Hess roared angrily, and his palm slapped toward Ethan with overwhelming power!

With no more scruples, every move of Joshua Hess aimed to take Ethan’s life!

He no longer wanted to give Ethan any chances, only wanting to kill him as quickly as possible to avoid complications.

“Bang!”

This palm strike, created from pure Inner Strength, reached an incredible speed!

Ethan didn’t even have time to react before the strike landed firmly on his chest!

“Whoosh!”

Under this palm strike, Ethan’s body flew horizontally, his chest caving in!

The power of a Martial Marquis’s full-force strike was unimaginable, and even Ethan’s flesh couldn’t withstand it!

Blood spilled from Ethan’s mouth, and several of his ribs broke in the process.

“Mr. Smith!” Polly Reeves couldn’t help but shout out.

In just a moment, Ethan Smith felt as if his spiritual power was locked away, unable to be invoked!

“Little beast, I want to see who can save you today.” Joshua Hess looked coldly at Ethan Smith, taking step by step towards him.

Ethan Smith clenched his teeth, desperately mobilizing the spiritual energy within his body, trying to break through these bonds.

Unfortunately, his spiritual power was blocked, and he could not break through the bonds no matter how much he struggled!

Seeing Joshua Hess approaching, Ethan Smith’s face grew even uglier.

“Useless, I have sealed all your vital points of spiritual power. Even if you have great powers, you cannot escape!” Joshua Hess’s cold voice came out.

Then, Joshua Hess’s whole body was covered in bright light, his palm condensing wave after wave of terrifying killing intent!

“Little beast, you killed hundreds of people from my Great Saint Sect, and because of you, Mr. Taylor has become dissatisfied with me! You’re a damn little beast!” Joshua Hess said through gritted teeth.

Ethan Smith looked up at Joshua Hess with a grin on his face and said, “Old beast, you had it coming...”

“Seeking death!” Joshua Hess became furious, and his big palm immediately slammed down on Ethan Smith!

“Urgh!”

With this slap, Ethan Smith felt as if his five viscera and six bowels were about to be crushed, and a mouthful of blood spewed out!

“I want to see how long you can keep being stubborn!” Joshua Hess roared in anger.

His palm contained a huge oppression force, striking down fiercely on Ethan Smith!

One strike, two strikes, three strikes...

Lines of blood appeared on Ethan Smith’s body, and bones were broken in several places!

However, Joshua Hess still showed no sign of stopping, his palm constantly striking Ethan Smith’s body relentlessly.

In just a few moments, Ethan Smith’s body was almost shattered.

His consciousness became somewhat blurry, and a feeling of exhaustion arose within him.

“Mr. Smith...” Polly Reeves couldn’t help but sob when she saw this scene.

With his mouth slightly open, everything in Ethan’s field of vision began to blur.

“Damn it...the realm of Marquis...really can’t be crossed....” Ethan Smith murmured to himself.

“Even the secret technique can’t be used...is today really the day I die...”

“Emily, I...I’ve let you down...”

Accompanied by Joshua Hess’s strikes, Ethan Smith’s consciousness became more and more blurred, and he couldn’t even feel the pain anymore.

Countless scenes flashed through Ethan Smith’s mind, scenes from the past playing like a movie in his head.

At this moment, Ethan Smith thought of many things, these aimless contemplations felt like memories at the brink of death.

“Hmm...it seems I’ve thought of something...” At this moment of near-death, a crazy idea suddenly burst into Ethan Smith’s mind!

“I get it, I know how to step into the Martial Marquis realm...!”

His previously dim eyes were filled with determination once again!

“I know it now!” Ethan Smith shouted excitedly in his heart!
