Chapter 2087

Chapter 2087: Chapter 2087: Anthony Hodge Comes Out Chapter 2087: Chapter 2087: Anthony Hodge Comes Out The matter of the Chaos Grave seemed to have come to a temporary standstill, but everyone knew all too well that this was simply the calm before the storm.

As soon as a new Saint emerged, they would undoubtedly seek out Dean Garner, especially the new Saints from the Monohorse Hall.

Within the Chaos Grave, the brilliant glows of the nine dojos still shone intimidatingly, and at the same time, Ethan Smith was in seclusion within the Thunder Courtyard.

Having experienced so much, Ethan Smith already had the foundation to step into the Late Returning Void Stage. With the addition of dragon blood and other materials, his breakthrough was not particularly difficult, it just needed some time.

Within Thunder Courtyard, Ethan Smith was in seclusion, concentrating on his cultivation.

His aura became increasingly powerful, the magical power in his body constantly surging, you could nearly feel the strong life force.

As time passed, Ethan's cultivation became more solid, his understanding of the Late Returning Void Stage grew more profound.

Outside the Chaos Grave, the True Saints of the Monohorse Hall did not lower their guard.

They closely monitored the movements of the Chaos Grave, fearing any unexpected changes.

As the storm was about to hit, they accumulated strength in the dark, ready to cope with any potential situation.

Thanks to Dean Garner's intervention, the Holy Region enjoyed a momentary peace, everything seemed to have calmed down.

However, the current Holy Region was all abuzz, debating who would be the first to step into the True Saint Realm.

Some mentioned Chad Wilson, others speculated on Sebastian Taylor, even the top Saint-sons of the Monohorse Hall were thought of.

A few days later, shocking news broke: The Day of Heaven's Mandate would arrive, at most within three months!

The moment the news broke, the entire Holy Region was in an uproar!

“The Day of Heaven's Mandate will arrive within three months? That's soon? It seems even faster than anyone's predictions!”

“That's right, people have previously said that the earliest would be a year, but only months have passed since then, it is a lot faster than anticipated.”

“Does that imply that Daniel Wilson and Emily Taylor are engaged?”

Just ten days after this news came out, there was another shocking revelation:

Anthony Hodge, the heir of the Hodge family, one of the Monohorse Hall, had exited seclusion!

As expected, he had stepped into the True Saint Realm!

The news was no less shocking than the appearance of the Chaos Grave!

Keep in mind that although Anthony Hodge is slightly older than Daniel Wilson and others, he is still a junior!

More than a decade ago, Anthony Hodge was hailed as the premier prince, the number one prodigy of the Holy Region, yet at the height of his brilliance, he chose to enter seclusion, which lasted for a whole ten years!

Ten years later, Anthony Hodge has become one of the new era individuals who have stepped into the True Saint Realm!

“As expected of the number one Saint-son of the Holy Region, his talent is truly terrifying!”

“Unbelievable, Anthony Hodge managed to make his move even faster than Chad Wilson!”

“With Anthony Hodge out of seclusion, the competition among the younger generation in the Holy Region will surely become more exciting.”

In a few days, the Hodge family announced that they would host a grand banquet three days later, inviting everyone to congratulate Anthony Hodge.

What's more, the Hodge family further stipulated that anyone could participate and that nobody could start a fight within the Hodge family, including the Monohorse Hall.

The purpose of the Hodge family's actions were firstly to ensure the smooth conduct of the banquet, and secondly to give the Monohorse Hall a show of strength.

Now that a True Saint has emerged, without burning blood essence, it seems like the Hodge family truly holds an advantage over other aristocratic families.

“Is this Hodge family trying to tell us that they will tower above us in the future?” an aristocratic family member quickly discerned the intentions of the Hodge family and was instantly displeased.

However, the requirements of the Hodge family were not excessive, and the fact that Anthony Hodge had come out of seclusion indeed offered a boost to their confidence.

Therefore, although the Monohorse Hall was displeased, they were forced to tolerate it.

The time was set for three days later, right at the Hodge family residence.

Meanwhile, Ethan Smith was at the critical moment of breaking through to the Late Returning Void Stage.

He felt the spiritual power in his body surge strongly, like a roaring river.

He practiced with full concentration, the life force and spiritual power inside his body complementing each other, continuously pouring into his meridians and dantian.

During this process, Ethan Smith's consciousness gradually entered a kind of ethereal state, feeling as if he had merged with heaven and earth, able to clearly perceive every bit of aura and life fluctuation around him.

All of a sudden, the magical power in Ethan Smith's body seemed to burst through an array, and a powerful aura instantly spread throughout his body.

Ethan Smith was startled, only to feel an exponential surge in the aura within his body, both his physical body and divine sense received a massive boost at this moment!

He could clearly feel the flow of blood within his body, and the blood seemed to be merging with his body, gradually exuding a hint of faint golden color.

Ethan Smith slowly opened his eyes, he clenched his fist, and the void in front of him was instantly shattered, and his dao techniques were readily available!

“Is this the Late Returning Void Stage…” Ethan Smith murmured, his eyes filled with astonishment.

Although it was just a small advancement in stage, the surge in strength far exceeded his expectations.

“Hmm?”

At that moment, Ethan Smith suddenly detected a strange flow of dao technique, this technique was both familiar and foreign.

“Could this…could this be Holy Power?!” Ethan Smith exclaimed, suddenly realizing what was happening!

Within Ethan Smith's aura, there was actually a trace of Holy Power!

Although it was only a sliver, it still shocked Ethan Smith!

You must know that Holy Power is unique to Saints, and definitely not something that someone in the Late Returning Void Stage can comprehend!

“Could it be… I've directly stepped into the Semi-Saint Realm?!” exclaimed Ethan Smith.

“Don't be surprised, strictly speaking, there is no such thing as a Semi-Saint Realm. It's simply a title given for surpassing the Late Returning Void Stage and understanding a hint of Holy Power.”

It was at this moment that the voice of Dean Garner came from outside the door.

Ethan Smith hastily looked over, only to see Dean Garner slowly walking in.

“Dean Garner.” Ethan quickly bowed, his eyes radiating with excitement and joy.

The reason Ethan was so excited was that he had seen a scene during his understanding of the Traceless Immortal Scripture.

That was Clayton Schmidt slaying a True Saint with the strength of a Semi-Saint! Even though that True Saint was at the end of his strength, this impressive feat was still unprecedented!

This also pointed out an issue, that True Saints are not gods, they can also be defeated! With Ethan Smith now at the realm of Semi-Saint, he also holds a glimmer of hope!

“Congratulations.” Dean Garner said with a smile.

This time, Ethan Smith did not try to be modest, he scratched his head and said, “The breakthrough this time came as a bit of a shock to me…”

“Ha ha ha ha!” Dean Garner couldn't help but stroke his beard and laugh at his words.

However, at that moment, Dean Garner's tone suddenly changed, “But don't celebrate too soon, Anthony Hodge has come out of seclusion.”
