Chapter 780: Chapter 465: Three Thousand Buddha Pills – Part 2

“`

“Three thousand, not one less,” Logan stated word by word. Upon hearing this, Augustine Cantu’s anger soared. What did this mean, not leaving any way out for himself at all?

“I’ll give you fifteen hundred, and afterward, I’ll hide the other half within the Sect. Three days after my escape, I’ll send someone to tell you the location,”

Augustine Cantu managed to suppress his fury. After all, who wants to die? Thus, he had to continually give in, even appearing extremely lowly.

To know, as the Sect Leader of Daohuomen, his word had always been law, with no one daring to defy him. Today, for him to act like this in front of Logan, was indeed unprecedented in centuries.

Logan took a moment to consider and found it seemed greatly advantageous to himself. He just didn’t believe Augustine Cantu would be so trustworthy. Anyway, he wasn’t without a way out. Even without Augustine Cantu’s three thousand Human Pills, what of it? As long as he hid in the Outer Domain, he wouldn’t face pursuit from the Saint Emperor.

Augustine Cantu was already sufficiently humbled, even without a way out. He couldn’t really do as Logan suggested, simply hand over three thousand Human Pills. Since Logan wasn’t willing to give an inch, Augustine Cantu had no choice but to gamble with his life. Between the two, only one could survive.

Watching Augustine Cantu’s murderous intent, conjuring Divine Skills for an attack, Logan just shook his head. Who had given Augustine Cantu such confidence?

To Logan, this was a positive turn. If he could take the opportunity during the fight to snatch the Human Pills, it would undoubtedly be a decisive victory for himself. However, Augustine Cantu, now like a madman, launched various Divine Skills without holding back, posing significant pressure on Logan.

But with the disparity in power, Augustine Cantu ultimately was no match for Logan. After more than a dozen rounds, Augustine Cantu was covered in over a dozen wounds, while Logan remained unscathed, even having acquired more than a hundred Human Pills along the way.

With wounds deepening and his Dantian already shattered, Augustine Cantu was now truly at a dead end, with one foot practically stepping through the gates of Hell.

Yet, he felt not a hint of fear, and instead, he began to laugh bizarrely: “This is just too good. I didn’t want to die, which is why I have been so tolerant toward you, even willing to abandon the entire Sect and flee. But why won’t you relent even a step? Do you think you’ve already won?”

“I’ll admit that all the talk about dying together before was just a bluff to scare you. After all, who doesn’t want to live well after cultivating to the Holy See? I, Augustine Cantu, am but a selfish wretch, crafting Human Pills to the harm of Heaven and reason, but it’s all to become stronger.”

“As for capturing Bart Cloud, I had no idea he was your comrade. Besides, isn’t he just a Dominator Realm cultivator? Is it worth you being so concerned? A cultivator can abandon everything for the sake of benefit. You don’t understand this principle and insist on seeking revenge.”

“Anyway, I’m not going to make it out alive today, so I might as well give you this chance. I’m going to ignite these three thousand Human Pills, and let’s go to Hell together!”

Augustine Cantu’s face twisted as he flung the three thousand Human Pills into the air. Then with the incantation from his hands, he made all the Human Pills shine brightly at that moment.

The power within the Human Pills was expanding, like flames flickering, amplifying to their utmost, awaiting the moment of explosion.

“Three thousand Human Pills are enough to annihilate a region of ten thousand miles, and you’re right in the epicenter. Not only will your soul be destroyed, but not even a speck of dust will be left of you.”

Augustine Cantu laughed wildly. To be able to take Logan down with him, even destroying tens of thousands of miles and sending countless lives to Hell with him, it was all worth it.

Logan wasn’t the least bit perturbed, instead shaking his head: “Indeed, the Human Pills are terrifying, but have you considered one thing? Why wasn’t I afraid at all just now, unwilling to compromise with you?”

“Why… why?” Augustine Cantu frowned, unable to fathom why Logan was so composed up to this point. Before, he could assume Logan was merely posturing, but now that he had ignited the three thousand Human Pills, how could Logan be not frightened at all?

“Because of this Barrier. Did you think that the array I arranged was to trap you? You’re gravely mistaken. It’s completely unnecessary to go through such trouble to deal with you.”

“`

Logan played with a smile and explained to Augustine Cantu, “My concern is the three thousand Human Pills in your hand, but this array is strong enough to offset the destructive power of the Human Pills.”

“Impossible!” Augustine Cantu refused to believe there was any array that could have such strong defensive capabilities. You must know that usually, the self-detonation of ten Human Pills could cause a Strong Dominator to fall, let alone three thousand of them.

Augustine Cantu kept shaking his head, thinking that Logan was lying, convinced that he couldn’t escape and was just maintaining his dignity before death.

“Stubborn fool, an array arranged with ordinary Spirit Stones won’t work, but I used Top-Grade Spirit Stones. One Top-Grade Spirit Stone is equivalent to ten million ordinary Spirit Stones. Although Spirit Stones don’t have the same destructive power as Human Pills, they are slightly more precious in terms of value.”

“I’ve used a hundred Top-Grade Spirit Stones in total, plus my Grandmaster-level skills in arranging arrays. Even if the Ninth Level Saint Seat were to come, it wouldn’t be able to escape for an hour, let alone these Human Pills that can only unleash their destructive power once. Just go ahead and trigger the explosion, I will watch here.”

Logan yawned, looking like he was watching a show, “I want to see if the three thousand Human Pills can destroy the array. But preferably, just crack it a little, so the entire Daohuomen can be leveled to the ground. A sect like this shouldn’t exist.”

At that moment in the sky, the three thousand Human Pills burned fiercely, their power swelling to the extreme. In an instant, if Augustine Cantu made a move, they would explode.

But at that moment, he faltered. His original intention was to die together with Logan, but after hearing what Logan said, it seemed as though he had become a laughingstock?

Once the Human Pills were ignited, even he was out of options. Even if he didn’t trigger them now, they would explode on their own soon after from the inability to contain their power.

Augustine Cantu had only one thought: to rush over now and trap Logan. As long as Logan didn’t leave the array, at least he could take Logan as a cushion for his fall.

Logan, seeing Augustine Cantu’s expression, could not help but laugh, “You really are a coward. Even at this point, you still hope to leave safely. Do you think that’s possible?”

Hearing this, Augustine Cantu was naturally furious, but Logan’s words were all too true. Having cultivated so hard to reach his current Realm, he was extremely reluctant to part with life because once dead, all would be over. He didn’t want to give up everything he had now, but it appeared that he truly had reached a hopeless situation.

“Enough, since the Human Pills will explode uncontrollably soon anyway, rather than being a weakling, I might as well be bold. At least I can take Logan down with me as a cushion.”

In the end, Augustine Cantu made up his mind and then attacked Logan at great speed. Logan, of course, understood that Augustine Cantu was not seeking a fight with him but was trying to trap him in order to detonate the three thousand Human Pills in the air, so they could die together.

But he did not allow the other party to easily succeed in his calculation. Instead of fighting Augustine Cantu, Logan retreated a hundred steps, making it impossible for the other party to reach him. Now, Logan just needed to delay for a certain amount of time. From the moment Augustine Cantu placed the three thousand Human Pills in the sky, he was already at a disadvantage.

Another minute passed, and the ignited Human Pills expanded to their limit, like ascending fireworks, and the next moment, they exploded with a roar.

Afterward, the terrifying force spread, making both Logan and Augustine Cantu feel the breath of death, similar to the self-destruction of the Beast King in the Demon Beast Mountain Range, but tens of thousands of times more terrifying. In that instant, Logan immediately flashed out, taking shelter outside the Barrier Array.

Augustine Cantu was not so lucky; he perished instantly in the explosion’s power, without even feeling pain because it was all too swift. Although Logan was unscathed, he understood that the Barrier could not hold for long. A hundred Top-Grade Spirit Stones definitely could not withstand three thousand Human Pills.

Logan used his Divine Sense to find Bart Cloud and then quickly escaped from Daohuomen with him. Bart Cloud did not understand why, but he did not ask because he trusted Logan.

The Barrier Array burst all at once, the power of the Human Pills engulfing the entire Daohuomen, spreading to a hundred miles away before the destruction ceased and the force dissipated.

And within these hundred miles, everything had turned into nothingness, the ground sunk hundreds of meters, pitch-dark, looking extremely eerie to anyone who saw it.
