Chapter 562: Chapter 562: Stepping into the Marquis!_1

“Crack!”

The Heavenly Thunder, containing the power of heaven and earth, struck Ethan Smith’s golden body ruthlessly!

For a brief moment, cracks appeared all over his flesh, as if it was about to shatter!

However, even in this state, Ethan remained motionless, his face not showing a hint of emotion!

“Could it be... this kid wants to use the heavenly tribulation to temper his body?!” Joshua Hess seemed to have understood something!

This revelation made him gasp in amazement!

Others would avoid the heavenly tribulation at all costs, preparing all kinds of magical artifacts to handle it, lest they die under its power.

Yet Ethan not only defied it but even used the heavenly tribulation as an opportunity to temper himself!

This kind of madness was simply unheard of!

“Too... too terrifying!” Everyone at the scene gasped with shock at that moment!

Joshua Hess was sweating profusely, his legs shaking!

At this moment, he suddenly began to regret provoking Ethan Smith!

“I don’t believe you can withstand it with just your flesh!” Joshua Hess shouted angrily!

Ethan’s defiance seemed to have enraged the heavens, and the third Heavenly Thunder slowly brewed within the dark clouds, its silver light illuminating the entire sky.

“Boom!”

An earth-shattering sound erupted! The silver lightning grew even more intense! The ground was instantly shattered!

Under this Heavenly Thunder, Ethan’s body was smashed to pieces!

“Good, good! Let this madman be struck dead like this!” Seeing this, Joshua Hess couldn’t help but shout excitedly!

Yet, the broken body of Ethan was slowly healing.

“Feels good...” Ethan licked his lips, his face showing a touch of madness!

“Boom!”

The fourth Heavenly Thunder descended! This time, it transformed the entire scene into a sea of thunder!

Within several meters of the area, everything turned silver!

Those who couldn’t escape in time were reduced to ashes on the spot!

“Back off quickly!” The crowd shouted urgently as they saw what was happening!

Countless people retreated, fearing to be affected by the heavenly tribulation!

Even Joshua Hess didn’t dare to get any closer!

Ethan’s body was bathed in golden light, intertwined with the silver, creating a horrific yet majestic sight!

The surrounding area fell silent; Ethan stood there for a long while, seemingly feeling the unstoppable power within his body.

“Finally... I’ve reached the Martial Marquis!” A burst of brilliance emerged from Ethan’s eyes!

At first glance, it seemed that Ethan didn’t emanate much energy, but he actually looked more like an ordinary person.

However, his body now resembled flawless jade, crystal clear and exquisite!

“Congratulations, Mr. Smith!” Polly Reeves was the first to come to her senses.

Then, everyone shouted in unison, “Congratulations, Lord Smith!”

Throughout Green Moon Villa, deafening cheers erupted!

At this moment, Ethan Smith was like their new god!

Looking at the countless dead bodies, Ethan’s eyes burst with murderous intent.

“So many people have died... Great Saint Sect, you will pay the price!” Ethan said coldly.

Then he stepped forward, instantly appearing in front of Cato Cain.

At this point, Cato Cain’s body was in tatters and barely recognizable.

Ethan hurriedly picked up Cato Cain and held him close. He raised his palm and laid it on Cato’s chest.

“Just in time.” Ethan whispered softly.

Using his qi, he sealed off Cato Cain’s vital points, saving his life for the moment.

Afterward, Ethan checked on everyone present, refusing to give up on anyone who had a chance of surviving.

A whole hour passed.

Polly Reeves furrowed her brows, “Mr. Smith, more than thirty people have died.”

“More than thirty people...” Ethan couldn’t help feeling uneasy.

All these people died because of him, innocent victims.

“Joshua Hess... it’s time for you to pay the price.” Ethan said coldly.

Meanwhile, Joshua Hess paced back and forth within the Great Saint Sect, feeling deeply uneasy.

He was terrified and anxious.

The moment Ethan Smith set foot in the Great Saint Sect, no one would be able to stop him!

Thinking of this, Joshua Hess nervously took out his phone.

He braced himself and dialed the phone number for Kylan Taylor.

As soon as the call connected, Kylan coldly asked, “How is it, is Ethan Smith dead?”

Joshua Hess’s mouth opened, unsure of how to explain.

Kylan Taylor furrowed his brow and asked, “I’m asking you, is Ethan Smith dead or not!”

Joshua Hess swallowed and replied, “Mr. Taylor... bad news, Ethan... Ethan Smith reached the realm of Martial Marquis...”
