Ancient Gartod too, was lost in his thoughts.

His fortunes were definitely on the rise. First it was the consumption of the Ancient Soul. Then it was this brand new secret method…

“Could this be my moment of success? The moment where I could finally break free of Linhasan control and be my own master?” Ancient Gartod mused.

However, their happy thoughts were cut short when a powerful beam of light shot out towards them from the distance!

Sensing the familiar aura from the beam of light, Ancient Gartod immediately chuckled.

“Hoo. You Kirilians sure are persistent. Do you have a personal grudge against me? Did I kill your family member or something? Oh that’s right! Did I… kill your brother earlier? That puny little sorry excuse of an Ancient?” Ancient Gartod’s laughing voice boomed out loudly as he unleashed a barrage of verbal attacks on the ambushers.

It was a very basic rule of fights. Rob the enemy of their composure, and capitalize on the attacks they were bound to make.

Ancient Gartod may sound casual and irritating, but he had actually entered full battle mode and was working very hard to get into his enemy’s head!

He waved his hand and easily caused the beam of light to disintegrate and disappear mid air.

“His soul was so weak and did almost nothing to nurture my soul, that I completely forgot about it! Haha! Your brother truly was a good for nothing Ancient, wasn’t he? Hahahaha!” Ancient Gartod roared with laughter.

Boom. Boom. Boom.

Three boundlessly colossal auras rippled outwards from the distance in reply and smashed into Ancient Gartod and Hegemon Hani with ruthless ferocity.

Ancient Gartod immediately paled as he unleashed his own boundless aura to resist them.

However, his aura was like a candle flickering in the wind.

He was unable to maintain even a complete sphere around himself and around Hegemon Hani in face of the three intense auras!

“Three Ancients. And really powerful ones at that. This is not good.” Ancient Gartod said gravely as he struggled to stabilize his aura, to no avail.

Next to him, Hegemon Hani was already spurting out blood from her mouth. The ferocious all-out auras of Ancient level powerhouses were not something that Hegemons could resist.

Even one Ancient level powerhouse would be impossible, much less three.

Ancient Gartod calmed his heart and his brain started to race as he tried to think of a solution.

“They are not resorting to soul attacks, they probably feared another move like before. Instead, they are approaching physically. If it is a physical fight, I still have a chance! I can probably fight against them equally for a short amount of time. However, without an escape plan, it would only be a matter of time until I tire and fall. Escape. How do I escape from three Ancients?”

“There is no escape for you, Linhasan dog.” Came the deeply emotional voice of the dead ancient’s brother. “I will take my time to slowly kill you and your Hegemon b****. By the time I am done, you will be-“

“Yawn. You’re already boring me to death. Is this your strategy? Make me fall asleep then capture me?” Ancient Gartod laughed.

Even in the face of extreme danger and near certain death, there was no way Ancient Gartod would allow his enemies to gain the upper hand in the psychological battle and the battle of words!

For a few moments, nothing happened.

However, just as Ancient Gartod was about to retort back with a laugh, a soft ringing sound that sounded like handbells appeared and started to rise slowly in intensity.

“You’re actually trying to make me sleep for real? Hahahaha!” Ancient Gartod roared out laughing as he fought the sleepy sensation that was threatening to overwhelm him completely.

The only way to overcome sleep attacks was to feel! Anger! Mirth! Joy! Anguish! Any emotion with sufficient intensity would be able to stave off sleep.

Ancient Gartod circulated his vast energy around his body and unleashed a withering blast of pure energy outwards towards the three Ancient auras in the distance which had yet to move a single step towards him.

“Such weak hypnotic attacks won’t work against me!” Ancient Gartod laughed loudly in derision.

“Really? I had barely begun. Let’s see how you deal with this next segment. Oh look, your partner’s soul is already within my grasp.”

He glanced to his side at Hegemon Hani. Her face was pale and her eyes were closed in peaceful slumber. Her bloodstained lips were curled slightly in a gentle smile as if she was dreaming about something good.

Ancient Gartod felt a deep chill run down his spine at the sight.

The most fearsome type of enemies weren’t the ferocious warriors that wielded horrible looking weapons, but the hypnotists that could render you asleep with happy dreams even as they laid their murderous hands on your very soul!

The vast and dense auras of all three Ancients pressed down heavily on him and forced him to expend a huge amount of energy just to resist the pressure and remain standing.

The sound of bells was joined by the sound of flute which was so pure and so wonderful that it made the heart sigh in pleasure.

“Rubbish! This is the worst music I have ever heard in my life! Do you know what music I like? I like the moans of my women! Yes! The best music is when my women are moaning and screaming in pleasure! Hahahaha!!” Ancient Gartod incited lewd thoughts to fight against the increasingly formidable sound of music which was starting to make even his soul cry out in the beauty of it all.

It was all he could do to think about the most erotic experiences he had so that he could be distracted from the beauty of the music!

At that moment, however, much to his horror, the pressure emitted from the three Ancients increased once more, and velvety soft but melodious moans of a woman began to sound.
