Episode 8: A Journey of Ten Thousand Miles Chapter 32 – The Decision

Although Perry was already over two hundred years old, as an eighth level warrior, his body was still solid. But after Sessler’s five fingers were inserted into his brain, Perry’s entire face turned ashen, while his body convulsed and trembled helplessly, just like an old man who was terminally ill.

Linley watched this scene carefully.

“Soul search.”

It was the first time that Linley had seen this kind of wondrous art, and necromancy, as the three most powerful types of magic, was indeed a shocking sight.

After roughly two minutes or so, Sessler’s originally turquoise-blue eyes returned to their normal color.

Sessler glanced at the ashen-faced Perry, laughed grimly twice, and then withdrew that right hand. The two golden-haired, turquoise-eyed zombies next to him also let go of Perry, and Perry, whose brain was stabbed open and whose soul was broken, was already dead beyond death, and his entire body was like mud as he directly collapsed to the ground and did not move.

“Well?”

Sessler looked at Linley triumphantly.

An expert of Sessler’s level, the admiration and surprise of ordinary people couldn’t satisfy his vanity anymore. And since coming into contact with Linley, he hadn’t really made Linley admire him. Now that he was revealing such a hand, Sessler was also looking forward to seeing Linley’s marveled gaze.

It was the awe of an expert that would satisfy his vanity.

“It’s marvelous.”

Linley honestly exclaimed.

The soul was something very esoteric, and as the most essential existence of a person, humans knew very little about it. To search for a person’s memories from the soul, at the very least, Linley couldn’t imagine how this was possible.

“Gah.”

Sessler smiled triumphantly, and then the two golden-haired, blue-eyed zombies next to Sessler disappeared into thin air. Returning to their home world of the undead.

“Let’s go.”

Linley urged.

In an instant, this mansion of Count Perry’s returned to an oppressive silence, with the vast majority of the people completely unconscious, while the bodies of the few powerful people lay in disarray on the ground.

In the hotel’s separate courtyard.

The door to the living room was closed, and the two girls, Rebecca and Lina, very obediently lit candles while Linley talked to Sessler.

“What did you find in Perry’s memories?”

Linley calmly pursued.

Sessler looked at Linley with a smile on his face and laughed, “Linley, I knew too little about you in the past. Unexpectedly. I didn’t expect you to be so extraordinary.”

“What happened to big brother Lei?”

Beside her, Rebecca stared with big, lovely eyes and inquired curiously.

Sessler’s long white eyebrows raised as he smiled, “Rebecca, Lina, your Big Brother Linley, he’s very famous in the Holy Alliance. In the stone carving world, he’s even a grandmaster level figure comparable to Proulx. Did you guys know that? When he was sixteen years old, he carved a stone sculpture, do you know how much it was worth?”

Sessler asked with a smile.

“A stone sculpture?”

Rebecca and Lina looked at each other.

In their eyes, stone carvings were very difficult to carve, and it was hard to carve to the point of ‘realism’. Not to mention any divinity.

“How many gold coins?”

Rebecca and Lina inquired curiously.

“Twelve million gold coins!”

Sessler reported the figure.

In fact, all of this information was obtained by Sessler from Count Perry’s head. Count Perry had received the Holy See’s kill order regarding Linley. The message about Linley was naturally described very clearly.

“Twelve million gold coins for a stone sculpture?”

Rebecca and Lina’s mouths were wide open.

“Not only the stone sculpture, your big brother Linley’s magical talent was the second in history back then, and now I’m afraid it’s the first person ever in the entire Yulan Continent. As for warrior talent, you all know the ground as well.”

Sessler admired Linley from the bottom of his heart.

Genius.

No matter who it was, no one would doubt it, Linley’s performance said it all.

The two sisters, Rebecca and Lina, immediately looked at Linley. Their eyes were filled with unconcealable surprise and admiration.

“Alright, Sessler.”

Linley shook his head and said with a smile, “Let’s not talk about these things of the past. You will tell me what you discovered from Perry’s memories.”

Sessler also restrained his smile.

“According to the information I learned from Perry’s memories, the Illuminati’s forces in the O’Brien Empire are still relatively small and completely submerged. They don’t dare offend the ‘God of Wushu’, so the experts of the Illuminati lurking in the O’Brien Empire are extremely rare.”

Linley nodded slightly.

“From this Peri’s memories. I know the various heads of the Illuminati latent forces throughout the Northwest Province. We can completely destroy this network of forces.”

Sessler smiled grimly.

It was difficult to build and easy to destroy.

To lurk a group of people in one place and still not arouse suspicion. It was very difficult.

But to destroy. It was easy to kill directly.

“What about the other provinces?”

Linley pursued.

In Linley’s opinion, destroying the power network of a single province wasn’t enough, destroying all of the Illuminati’s strongholds in the O’Brien Empire would be a great relief.

“If the seven major provinces, all the chief leaders, some of the important leaders are killed. By then the group will have no leader. Moreover, the Illuminati’s power network are all single line connections, once the person in charge, the general in charge dies, I’m afraid that the entire power network will be completely paralyzed.”

The bigger the blow to the Illuminati, the more painful it would be for Linley.

Sessler shook his head, “It’s as if the heads of the various counties are only in contact with Perry, and Perry is only in contact with the general head of the O’Brien Empire, or with the Illuminati headquarters.”

“The O’Brien Empire General Head?”

Linley’s eyes lit up.

So it turned out that this O’Brien Empire, there was also a head with a higher status. If he captured that chief responsible person, I’m afraid that he would get more information using ‘soul search’ as well.

“Unfortunately, Perry doesn’t know the identity of this person either.”

Sessler shook his head, “Perry only knows to summon to a specific location.”

Linley nodded.

Sessler suddenly smiled, “But I got a very interesting message from Perry’s memories.”

“Speak.”

Linley looked at Sessler.

“That the chief of the O’Brien Empire gave Perry an order for another month’s time. There will be an escort squad that will enter the Northwest Row Chief Chief, telling Perry to arrange for people to receive them carefully along the way and to keep it a secret.”

Sessler bristled, “According to that order, it seems like the importance of this escort squad is very high, no less than the one that escorted me.”

“Oh?”

Linley’s eyes lit up.

The escort squad was of such high importance, the characters being escorted must be extraordinary.

“Do you know the location of their first stop into the Northwestern Province?”

Linley pursued.

“It’s the county town of Deke, and according to the route that was formulated, it doesn’t pass through the provincial capital.”

Sessler said.

Linley nodded. This was completely understandable, there was the Saint realm powerhouse ‘MacKenzie’ in this provincial city of Bazil. The route should certainly avoid this place.

“The county town of Deke, which is also more than eight hundred miles away from here.”

Sessler was still familiar with the geography of the O’Brien Empire.

Linley indifferently said, “Over eight hundred miles? Rush over there at full speed, one day is enough.”

The black-striped clouded leopard ‘Blackru’ wouldn’t even need half a day if it rushed there at top speed. It’s just that one can’t always maintain the maximum speed for a long distance run.

But it was the normal running speed, leaving in the morning, one could definitely arrive before evening.

“Half a month from now, we’ll set off for Deke County City.”

Linley said.

Sessler nodded as well.

Time passed. Linley, Sessler, the Rebecca sisters, and the others stayed in the separate courtyard of this hotel ground, Sessler to carry out the ‘Undead Inheritance’ for these Rebecca and Lina sisters, and Linley not wasting a single moment of time in his cultivation.

Linley hadn’t seen the process of the Undead Inheritance.

It was just that the Rebecca sisters entered the room with Sessler to begin the ‘Undead Inheritance’, and in just a few moments, Sessler exited the room and instructed Linley not to disturb the sisters.

It was a full three days and three nights before the two sisters, Rebecca and Lina, walked out of the room with great vigor.

Three days of time. Causing them to fully integrate the contents of the undead inheritance, according to Sessler, the pair of sisters were both extremely talented.

Linley, on the other hand, was practicing the fourth level realm of the Heavy Sword, ‘Earth Upanishad’. ……

Desolate wilderness. A robed figure brushed against the boundless weeds as if riding the wind out of thin air, flying towards the east at great speed.

His body was small and lean, and his silver-colored hair was as short as steel needles.

The black robe wrapped up his entire body, his gaze was extremely sharp, looking straight to the east. The entire person just flew at extreme speed at low altitude.

“Five level eight bodies.”

Steller remembered Hastings’ several instructions.

The five brothers being escorted this time. No matter what, nothing could go wrong. Five rank eight physical bodies, once the angels descended, it would be five peak Saint Domain powerhouses.

“It’s been a long time since I killed a Saint Domain powerhouse.”

There was a hint of a grim smile at the corner of Schuyler’s mouth.

Hastings had authorized it. If a Saint Domain powerhouse got in the way, it was perfectly fine to kill it. All the consequences would be borne by the Illuminati. ……

The morning of the tenth day on which Count Perry had been killed.

Linley sat motionless on the ground with his knees crossed as the morning mist filled the air. Linley had lived a very quiet life during this period of time, although Perry’s death had once caused the city guards to scout the area.

Yet this had nothing to do with Linley and the others.

Linley suddenly stood up, holding the Black Yul heavy sword, he stabbed straight ahead in the air, only to hear a sharp sound like piercing cloth – a wall about fifty meters away from Linley, but it trembled a little bit, and the smoke fell.

“Poof the wall of the wall even a fist-sized piece of the area directly into pieces, as if the fine sand flowed down, eventually revealed a fist-sized hole in the ground.

There was no fighting qi shot out, just a stab in the air, but it caused such a hole to appear in the wall fifty meters away.

“The Triple Wave of Earth Upanishad.”

Linley murmured softly, “This Earth Upanishad’s simplest and most basic ‘Triple Wave’ has finally done it completely.”

From the moment he had entered the Chiltern County City, Linley had been pondering this.

And now, Linley had finally mastered the most basic attack of the fourth layer of ‘Earth Upanishad’, the ‘Triple Wave’.

The higher the number of vibrational waves that were transformed when fighting qi and power were attacked, the higher the efficiency of the transformation. The efficiency of the triple wave transformation was very low. But the power was already great.

After all, this was an attack method that was completely and vastly different from Dou Qi and power attacks.

“Linley.”

Sessler had just stood in the doorway and saw this scene, “What kind of attack are you doing?”

Sessler was also surprised.

Sessler had seen the attacks of Saint Realm powerhouses before.

However, it was usually a sword slashing out a thick Dou Qi to attack others from afar. But like Linley, he couldn’t see any fighting qi, couldn’t see any other energy, and a fist-sized hole appeared in the wall in front of him without a sound. This scene was too bizarre.

“You wouldn’t understand even if I told you.”

Linley said with a faint smile.

The most basic triple wave was comprehended, but Linley understood that the higher up it went, the more difficult it was and the more time it took.

“Bang!”

“Bang!”

“Bang!” ……

Suddenly there was a knock on the door outside the courtyard door, and Linley directly walked over to open it.

That hotel waiter respectfully said, “Sir, this gentleman wants to see you.”

Next to this hotel waiter was a peaceful middle-aged man.

This middle-aged man glanced at the waiter, who very obediently immediately retreated.

That middle-aged man looked at Linley with a smile, “Lord Linley, hello.”

Linley’s face couldn’t help but change, there were very few people who knew his identity.

“Lord Linley doesn’t need to be nervous, my lord wants to meet you.”

This middle-aged man smiled and said.

“Who is your family’s lord?”

Linley frowned.

“Lord Linley will know after reading this letter.”

This middle-aged man took out a letter from his bosom and handed it to Linley.
