The War God's Homecoming

Chapter 478 Legend of the Green Robe

"Commander Gardner, are you not planning to destroy your cultivation?" Walter Tarry revealed his weapon, a three-meter-long spear.

Lonnie Silva and several others also assumed their combat stances. There were a total of eight people, including Preston. Preston Page, Lonnie Silva, and Walter Tarry, all had solid War God-Emperor Intermediate-level strength. The Grand Elders of Crimson Sun Sect and Cloud-Stepping Sect had both broken through to the Pseudo-God-Emperor realm. The North Leader of Ink Pavilion and the two lords of their sect were all at the peak of War Emperor.

"You think a few of you can make me give up my cultivation? That's not enough!" Billy's eyes narrowed slightly as his aura steadily increased.

"We've heard that you've been suppressing your cultivation, and today, we're fortunate to witness your breakthrough." Lonnie Silva said with a faint smile. he and the others believed that Billy still refused to admit defeat because he wanted to challenge them with his breakthrough power. Otherwise, with eight of them teaming up, even if Billy was considered a once-in-a-thousand-year talent, he wouldn't stand a chance.

"You all want to see me break through and become a genuine War God-Emperor?" Billy smiled faintly. "Well, it depends on whether you have the power to push me to that point."

"We'll wait and see!" Preston continued, "Everyone, attack!"

"Alright!" the others responded in unison.

Boom!

As their words were finished, all eight of them simultaneously launched their attacks. Within a radius of a kilometer, the wind roared, thunder crackled, and it felt as if the mountains were collapsing and the earth was splitting apart. The eight overwhelming forces, carrying a destructive energy, surged toward Billy, causing the very air to tremble.

Just at the moment of this intense onslaught, a lightning-fast blade radiance tore through the void and descended from the sky. The blade radiance crushed everything in its path, completely blocking the attacks of the eight individuals. The air resonated with a deafening roar, and countless shockwaves radiated in all directions.

Crimson Sun Sect's archway not far away collapsed with a resounding crash, and the guardhouse and the towering ancient trees around it were reduced to rubble, creating a cloud of dust that obscured the sky. At the same time, Preston Page and the others were pushed back by this force, stabilizing themselves only after being forced back several dozen meters. A deep fear appeared on their faces as they all fixed their gazes on the figure behind Billy.

Then, a figure in a green robe entered their field of vision.

"Who are you?!" Walter Tarry furrowed his brows, staring at the newcomer.

"Adam Greenleaf," the man in the green robe spoke lightly.

"What?!" Preston and the others shouted simultaneously, their pupils constricting with a cold sensation.

In the world of martial arts, this name carries great weight. The name was enough to make them feel despair.

The legends about Adam Greenleaf in the martial world could fill a book. Legend had it that Adam Greenleaf entered the secular world at the age of eighteen, with only himself, a sword, and a green robe. In less than a year, he challenged ten notorious aristocratic sects, spreading his name throughout the martial world.

At the age of thirty-two, Adam officially broke through to the God-Emperor level. Although he couldn't be called the first of his kind, anyone who could reach the War God-Emperor level at such an age was truly exceptional.

Three years ago, several spoiled young masters from two top-tier sects committed a heinous crime, slaughtering hundreds of people from a second-rate sect in order to possess a few female disciples. A month after the incident, Adam Greenleaf single-handedly confronted nearly forty elders and experts from the two top-tier sects. Among the forty, the lowest cultivation level was at the War Grandmaster Intermediate stage, including six God-Emperor-level experts and five War Emperor Perfectionists. The final result was that all the elders and the young masters who had committed the crime were killed.

However, Adam was severely injured in that battle and suffered heavy injuries. After that, he disappeared from the public eye. There were rumors that after being injured, he was pursued by his former enemies and had perished. There were also rumors that because of that battle, his Dantian was destroyed, and his cultivation was completely ruined, so he went somewhere to live out the rest of his life. In any case, since then, no one had seen him in the martial world.

"Are you really Adam Greenleaf?" Preston asked, slightly pausing before looking at him.

"You can choose not to believe it." Adan replied casually.

Preston let out a heavy sigh.

"This matter today is unrelated to Your Excellency. It's best not to interfere. Otherwise..."

"The Ether Mountain has a decree that War God-Emperor-level experts should not attack martial practitioners below the God-Emperor level. Do you six take the decree lightly?" Adam interrupted him. "Huh?" Hearing this, Preston and the others were stunned.

"Are you here on behalf of the Ether Mountain?" Lonnie took a deep breath and continued, "You haven't appeared in the martial world for these three years. Did you go to the Ether Mountain?" Adam did not respond to his question. Instead, he walked a short distance away from Billy and knelt on one knee. "I, Adam Greenleaf, arrive late, please forgive me, Young Master!" Preston and the others simultaneously took a sharp breath. Even someone like Adam Greenleaf referred to Billy as "Young Master"?!

"Wait a minute! Is Billy Gardner the Young Master of the Ether Mountain?" they wondered.

The Ether Mountain, commanding martial art practitioners across the world. And the Young Master of the Ether Mountain was the chosen one who would lead the Ether Mountain in the future.

Thinking of this, Preston and the

others couldn't help but shiver. No one had expected that Commander Gardner, also known as King of the West, not only hailed from the peak of the Ether Mountain but was also the future leader of it.

"Uncle Adam, please, get up quickly!" Billy took a few big steps forward and helped Adam Greenleaf up.

In the martial world, people knew of Adam Greenleaf's terrifying martial prowess, but not many knew where he came from or who his master was. However, Billy knew Adam's true identity and background. "Uncle Adam, why are you here?" Billy paused for a moment and asked.

"Master Billy, please rest for a while on the side. We can talk after I deal with this group."

"Uncle Adam, should I handle this?" Billy asked.

"At your current stage, your mission isn't completed yet, and it's not time for you to reach the God-Emperor level." Adam Greenleaf replied. "Leave it to me."

With that, he walked towards Preston and the others, speaking in a solemn tone as he approached.

"By destroying your own cultivation, you can live. Otherwise, you will die."

Preston let out a heavy breath and then looked at the others.

"Everyone, sooner or later, we will die. Do we want to give it a try? Maybe there's still a glimmer of hope! In our lifetime, we have the chance to learn the ultimate skills of Adam Greenleaf, a genius of the heavens. It's not a waste to come to this world even if we die. Let's do it!" Walter Tarry took a deep breath and responded.

"Since both of you are so determined, then count me in. Even if I can't survive, at least I won't be alone." Lonnie said with determination in his eyes.

All three of them understood that for

a martial practitioner at the

God-Emperor level, their cultivation was equivalent to their life. Without cultivation, their bodies would rapidly age, and they would have at

most a month left to live. Therefore, they decided to take a gamble.

"Very well!" Preston nodded vigorously and then said in a solemn tone, "Attack!"
