Jacob from the Dark Realm Returns

Chapter 170: Wait for Me to Kill a Few People

After releasing his spiritual will, Jacob put on a cold smile.

He sensed seven auras.

This meant seven people at the Divinity Phase were coming towards him.

After sensing those auras, Jacob immediately stopped.

He stood in the air with Elsa.

Seeing Jacob stop, Elsa looked up at Jacob with a puzzled look.

However, she did not say anything.

"Wait for me to kill a few people!"

Jacob said softly.

For him, killing people seemed to be no big deal.

Although Elsa was an unsophisticated girl, she had grown up in the Triangle Region. Under the

protection of her grandfather, she had never personally witnessed a murder, but the word "killing" was

not unfamiliar to her.

"Be careful."

Elsa immediately said.

At the same time, a blush rose to her pretty face.

Jacob nodded and landed on the ground with Elsa.

After sending Elsa to a safe place, Jacob exerted his strength and soared into the air again.

He flew high in the sky.

A look of admiration appeared on Elsa's face when she saw this scene.

At the same time, she also wore a regretful and envious expression.

She wanted to be like her grandfather and Jacob, but she was born incapable of practicing martial arts.

It was precisely because of this that her grandpa protected her very well.

...

...

Jacob flew into the air again.

At this moment, the seven cultivators at the Divinity Phase had appeared in his sight.

There were six men and a woman.

Without thinking hard, Jacob guessed the identities of those cultivators.

All of them came from secluded families.

At the peak of Mount G, Jacob had signed the Soul IOUs with several disciples, and those cultivators

must be from their families.

"Jacob, even if you don't know our names, you must have guessed our identities."

Faced with the seven powerful cultivators, Jacob just stood there with his hands behind his back, not

showing any sign of escaping. The cultivators weren't surprised to see this.

They all knew Jacob was an arrogant man with extraordinary abilities.

According to what they had learned, Jacob could be said to be extremely conceited.

Jacob sneered, "You are just insignificant ones from the secluded families!"

Upon hearing this, the seven cultivators looked at him with different expressions, but they were all

driven by bloodlust.

"Are you trying to get yourself killed?"

The only female cultivator among the seven people said coldly.

She was Marvin's elder, coming from the Stone family.

Jacob sneered, "The last person who spoke to me like this was the Third Elder of the Pharmacy

Pavilion. If you want to end up like him, I can fulfil your wish."

As soon as Jacob said this, the seven cultivators were all stunned.

Jacob was truly too arrogant.

The news that the Third Elder of the Pharmacy Pavilion had been killed by Jacob at the peak of Mount

G had long been spread.

However, it was out of their expectation that Jacob still dared to make a threat when being confronted

with them. How overconfident he was!

"Jacob, you are a peerless genius that can be hardly seen in China for a hundred years, or even a

thousand years. It is rare for someone as outstanding as you to appear in this world. Don't disgrace

yourself."

"Back then, you forced our descendants to sign the Soul IOUs. As long as you agree to terminate the

covenants, we can let bygones be bygones. What do you think?"

After being forced to sign the Soul IOUs, Marvin, Lance and other descendants of secluded families

returned home. Upon knowing the situation, their elders immediately tried to terminate the covenants.

However, even patriarchs at the peak Divinity Phase could do nothing about it, let alone those at the

Divinity Phase.

In the end, these secluded families brought Marvin and the others to the Grangers, who specialized in

witchcraft, souls and sacrifices. They asked the Grangers to help them terminate the Soul IOUs that

Jacob had forced them to sign.

Truth be told, Marvin and the others weren't afraid of the Soul IOUs.

What they cared more about was the humiliation brought by this.

They couldn't suffer the humiliation of being defeated by Jacob and forced to sign the unequal

covenants.

This was because with the help of the Granger family, the Soul IOUs wouldn't pose a threat to them.

However, when their elders at the Divinity Phase were at a loss as to what to do, they finally panicked.

But they were not too worried.

After all, they had great trust in the Granger family.

However, neither the younger generation who signed the Soul IOUs nor their elders had expected the

frustrating result.

They indeed headed for the Granger's.

But the Grangers replied that they couldn't help to solve this problem.

In China, it was beyond doubt that the Granger family ranked first in their research on Soul Contracts,

witchcraft and sacrifices.

Apart from some great witches in the Southeast who were comparable to the Grangers, no one in this

world could have such achievements.

After the Grangers expressed their helplessness, it meant that only Jacob could terminate the

covenants.

On that day, at the peak of Mount G, all disciplines who had been forced to sign the Soul IOUs were

direct descendants of secluded families, who had spent a lot of resources and efforts to nurture them.

Otherwise, it was impossible for them to reach the Semi-Divinity Phase at such a young age and dare

to attack Jacob.

If the Soul IOUs couldn't be terminated, it would be equivalent to putting a shackle on the souls of

these talented descendants, which meant they would never reach the Divinity Phase.

They could never let this happen.

However, they also couldn't stand giving Jacob the precious medicines required by him.

Jacob's greediness was beyond their imagination.

Almost every family had to take out at least one-third of their treasures to meet the requirements stated

on the Soul IOUs.

However, this wasn't just a matter of precious medicines.

It was also a matter of the dignity of secluded families.

Jacob's great strength was known to all after what happened on the peak of Mount G.

In his early twenties, he was able to fight against two intermediary Divinity Phase cultivators from the

Pharmacy Pavilion by himself. In addition to killing one of them, he even managed to make the other

one his slave.

It was simply shocking.

No secluded family was willing to deal with Jacob alone.

As a result, the families that had been forced to sign the Soul IOUs instantly reached an agreement.

Every family would send a cultivator at the Divinity Phase.

At the very least, he had to be at the intermediary Divinity Phase.

The seven families planned to join forces to teach Jacob a lesson.

After hearing this suggestion, Jacob sneered again, "It's quite simple to terminate the Soul IOUs or let

them take effect. Just repay the debts agreed upon by us, and the covenants will be useless."

Then Jacob turned to look at a middle-aged man whose aura was similar to that of Robby and Lance.

He said indifferently, "The other families just owe me one IOU, but your family owes me two."

Logan Lewin would have remained calm if Jacob hadn't brought this matter up.

As a cultivator at the late stage of Divinity Phase, he immediately flew into a rage upon hearing Jacob's

aggressive words.

This bastard forced Robby and Lance to sign the IOUs respectively.

In the case of Lance, he was seen to vomit a great amount of blood after being beaten up by Jacob,

who then forced him to sign the IOU.

Lance was highly-talented, with his strength superior to many cultivators at the Semi-Divinity Phase. It

could even be said that he was close to being invincible at his level. However, after fighting with Jacob,

he was utterly devastated.

Since he woke up from a coma, he had suffered from self-denial.

It was precisely because of his defeat to Jacob.

If Lance couldn't break through the psychological barrier, there would be no hope for him to reach the

Divinity Phase.

Back then, Lance was greatly talented with formidable strength. Even in all the secluded families, no

one of his age could be comparable to him. To be more specific, only a few could reach the same level

as him.

Such a setback was both a hindrance and an opportunity for Lance.

If Lance could break through the mental barriers, he would easily reach the Divinity Phase.

In the future, he was destined to be incomparably powerful.

But if he couldn't overcome such an obstacle, he would accomplish nothing.

At this moment, Logan even wished to devour Jacob alive.

"Jacob, if you agree to terminate their Soul IOUs today, we will stop finding trouble with you..."

Someone said.

However, Jacob replied with a cold smile, "Since they dared to attack me, they must be prepared to be

killed. However, I spared their lives on the condition that they would pay me. I am already being

merciful. Moreover, it is only natural to repay their debts."

"Are you going to refuse?"

Everyone looked at Jacob.

The seven cultivators had already surrounded Jacob, who was trapped in the middle.

In this way, Jacob couldn't be able to escape.

Jacob saw their movements, but he didn't stop them.

To him, these people were no match for him.

Four of them were at the late stage of Divinity Phase and the others were of the intermediary Divinity

Phase.

None of them was at the peak Divinity Phase.

It was just a piece of cake for Jacob to defeat those people.

"So what if I refuse? As I said, it's only natural to pay off debts."

Jacob's voice turned completely cold.

Suddenly, a powerful aura erupted from his body.

"How dare you!"

Logan shouted.

Immediately after, the seven cultivators took action without any hesitation.

Even if Jacob had defeated two cultivators by himself, the current situation was completely different

now.

The Third Elder and Fourth Elder of the Pharmacy Pavilion were only at the intermediary Divinity

Phase.

Right now, the weakest one among them was at the intermediary Divinity Phase.

Even if Jacob could fight with three or even five cultivators at the same time, they were sure he had no

chance of winning this time. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

After all, they were all at the Divinity Phase.

Four of them were even at the late stage of Divinity Phase.

Even for decades, it was rare to see several high-level cultivators deal with one person together.

"Since you want to do it the hard way, then don't blame us for bullying you."

Of course, the seven cultivators knew it was nearly impossible for Jacob to make compromises.

Therefore, they had no choice but to take tough actions against him.

"Jacob, you will be proud to be killed by us today."

The female cultivator of the Stone family said coldly.

After that, everyone immediately attacked Jacob together.

In their opinion, even though Jacob was formidable, he wasn't worthy of being attacked by seven

cultivators as the Divinity Phase at the same time.

It was more reasonable to send a cultivator at the peak Divinity Phase to deal with him.

But Jacob wasn't qualified enough to fight with a high-level patriarch.

There was another important reason why all of these cultivators were willing to join forces to deal with

Jacob.

It was because of the precious medicines Jacob had on him.

Even the most precious treasure of the Pharmacy Pavilion, the Tight Dragnet, was owned by Jacob

now.

After obtaining the Tight Dragnet, they would return it to the Pharmacy Pavilions to avoid causing

further troubles, but the latter still had to pay a certain price. Also, it would be a great opportunity to get

on better terms with the Pharmacy Pavilion. Therefore, all these cultivators attacked Jacob with full

might while paying great attention not to go to extremes.
