The Legendary Man novel Chapter 523

Chapter 523 How Durable

Upon hearing that, Garrison approached him with a frown. “Jonathan, what’s the point in you asking this now? We did this to the Goldstein family to remind you that you still have weaknesses, no matter how mighty you are. Your troops don’t matter when you’re facing off respectable families like us. You still failed to protect your family, didn’t you?”

“Is this a threat?” asked Jonathan coldly, huffing a laugh as he studied Garrison. All the while, Garrison marched forward one step at a time, his aura surging to incredible levels.

When he arrived before Jonathan, his cultivation level had reached the beginner phase of the God Realm, which was on par with Jonathan.

“Jonathan, this isn’t a threat but the truth of the matter,” he explained to Jonathan while smirking.

“Jonathan, you’re too soft, so you can’t become a hero. You care about family and friends. It’s exactly what’s happening now. Any person could easily disrupt your mind. This is a warning. The Osborne family never intended to fight you.

Otherwise, you wouldn’t even be alive by now. You have no ambition despite holding supreme military power. People like you deserve to be trampled over by others. Now, I shall ask you on behalf of the Osborne family. Will you submit to us, allow yourself to be of service to us, and become a vassal of the family?”

“You’re full of gibberish!” Following a cry of rage, Jonathan rushed forth, ready to claw at Garrison’s face. Bam!

There was a muffled noise before Jonathan was sent flying backward. Meanwhile, a faint golden glow flashed around Garrison. Is that a shield made of spiritual energy?

After landing on the ground, Jonathan checked on his bloodied fingers. His nails were all uprooted, which was an after-effect of him clawing at the spiritual energy shield.

No, this isn’t a spiritual energy shield. Although cultivators who have surpassed the Grandmaster Realm could condense their spiritual energy outside their body to form a temporary shield, it would only be a simple form of defense. It couldn’t possibly have such power.

As the slabs of stone cracked underneath Jonathan’s feet, he lashed out at Garrison once again. His figure was a blur as he dashed forward. Clang!

The golden glow emerged again, rippling like water. That time around, Jonathan focused his sight on it and finally managed to see it clearly. There were odd, blurry characters flashing on that glowing orb of light.

It was peculiar, for it seemed like the huge bell found in temples. It’s a protective magical item! In an instant, Jonathan could already see why Garrison could remain unperturbed.

Although he had never seen one himself, Jonathan had read about various pills and magical items in the latter part of the Ancient Sacred Dragon Technique.

According to the description provided by the Ancient Sacred Dragon Technique, cultivators during ancient times wouldn’t only train by making use of spiritual energy found in nature, but they would also boost their weapons by adding various functions to them through the use of special rune arrangements.

For instance, they would use spatial rune formations to create magical items used for storage. Despite the tiny object, it could store huge amounts of items.

Other than that, one could also use fire-attribute rune formations on weapons to add a fire affinity to the weapon and deal more damage.

Protective magical items were the most precious out of all the magical items. It was hard to gather the necessary materials, and the process of forging them was incredibly challenging. Every single one of those items could help save lives.

Powerful protective magical items could even allow cultivators to negate attacks from others, so they were definitely prized treasures.

Yet, despite their prowess, the materials required to forge these items could no longer be found due to the destruction of the spiritual roots in nature.

Even the author who created the cultivation method of the Ancient Sacred Dragon Technique had only seen them on rare occasions, adding to their mysterious nature.

Thus, Jonathan wasn’t expecting to encounter something that had vanished during ancient times.

He wondered if he was considered lucky or unlucky.
