Lord Came Back From The Battlefield

Billy and his companions each found a place to sit cross-legged. They immersed themselves completely in the domain filled with a murderous aura. Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

“Bob, how did it go? Did you gain anything?” White Tiger asked Bob on the fourth morning.

“It’s too profound!” Bob shook his head. “Three days aren’t enough; even three years might not be sufficient for me to grasp much.”

“The only gain I have is a deeper understanding of my current swordsmanship. My speed and strength should have improved a bit.”

“Same here. Besides gaining more confidence in my current blade techniques, I didn’t gain much else,” Azure Dragon added.

In fact, it wasn’t just the two of them. Except for Billy, everyone felt similarly. The only difference was the depth of their understanding of their blade or sword techniques.

“Boss, did you gain anything?” Vermilion Bird asked Billy.

“It’s indeed very profound. My gains are limited as well,” Billy shook his head and continued. “If I’m not mistaken, the Realm of Swords and Blades means that a warrior can use their blade or sword techniques to form a domain within a certain range.”

“In this domain, they become the ruler, and everything else can be seen as ants, to be slaughtered at will.”

Actually, Billy had gained quite a lot in those three days. Besides a deeper understanding of his blade and sword skills, he had vaguely grasped a hint of the Realm of Swords and Blades. However, the time was too short. Given more time, he might have achieved more.

“Not bad!” At this moment, the old man appeared again. “To have such an understanding in three days is impressive for someone with a Golden Bloodline!”

“Senior, how can we form this Realm?” Judge asked.

“I don’t know either,” the old man smiled faintly. “Next time you meet your Ancestor, you can ask them directly.”

“Senior, do you have a larger storage ring?” Stout suddenly asked.

“A larger storage ring?” The old man was slightly taken aback. “How big do you need?”

“As long as it can hold this stone wall,” Stout replied seriously.

“Three days are too short. If we take this stone wall with us, Boss and the others can study it anytime.”

Everyone was momentarily stunned.

“… The storage ring you need might not even exist in a mid-level star domain!” The old man’s mouth twitched slightly. “Even if you find such a large storage ring, it won’t help. This stone wall is imbued with an array. Outside the array, it’s just a stone wall.”

“Alright then,” Stout shrugged.

“The purpose of this stone wall is to give you a new understanding of blades and swords,” the old man continued. “It doesn’t matter how much time you spend on it. The difference between three days and three years is minimal. You need to comprehend it gradually during your future practice.”

“Understood!” Everyone nodded simultaneously.

“By the way, your Ancestor from the Ravenwood family left you a gift related to your bloodline. I’ll pass it to you along with the method for ‘Star Domain Chasm’,” the old man said to Billy.

“Thank you, Senior!” Billy bowed.

“My task here is complete. You should leave now; this forbidden area will soon disappear completely. Follow the original path to exit,” the old man added.

“One last piece of advice: if you’re not confident, don’t rush to the mid-level star domain. It’s much more dangerous than here!”NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

“Senior, where is your true form? Will we meet again?” Billy asked.

“It depends on fate,” the old man replied.

With that, his image gradually faded and soon disappeared completely.

At the same time, a stream of information flowed into Billy’s mind.

Half an hour later, they returned to the Domain Lord’s Mansion.

“Damn, I forgot to ask where the Star Domain Chasm is!” Judge exclaimed as they exited the warehouse.

“Right!” Everyone reacted simultaneously.

“If the senior didn’t tell us voluntarily, he probably didn’t want us to know. Even if we asked, he might not have answered,” Harleen said.

“Very likely!” Opal nodded. “He probably thinks we’re too weak and doesn’t want us to go to the mid-level star domain now.”

“Alright then,” everyone nodded.

“Boss, where do we go now?” Soul Chaser asked Billy.

“Something’s off; there are more people in the city,” Billy replied cryptically.

“What do you mean?” Everyone was puzzled.

At that moment, a powerful oppressive force swept over them, accompanied by a mysterious mark crashing down with thunderous momentum.

“Courting death!” Casey said coldly, stepping forward and drawing his Demon Blade to meet the attack.

A muffled sound echoed as both attacks exploded simultaneously. Casey was forced back several steps, cracking the ground beneath him. He was at ninth-rank Perceiving Dao Realm; even without using his trump card, he could counter a first-rank Heaven Dao Realm attack. The assailant was clearly at Heaven Dao Realm.

“Who are you? Show yourself!” White Tiger demanded, looking into the void ahead.

“So young and already able to withstand my attack? Interesting!” An old man’s voice rang out.

Soon after, a group of about ten people appeared in mid-air. The leader was the one who had attacked earlier, at early-stage Heaven Dao Realm. The others were at late-stage Perceiving Dao Realm.

“Hand over everything you took from the warehouse, and I’ll leave you with intact corpses,” one of the men said to them.

“Where did these suicidal people come from?” Judge muttered in disbelief.

“The City of the Dead’s protective array has been broken. Many people probably know by now. Half a month is enough to attract many here,” Ivy responded.

“True!” Judge and others nodded.

“What are you mumbling about? Didn’t you hear what I said?” The man repeated.

“You have one breath’s time. If you don’t leave, you won’t be able to,” White Tiger retorted.

“Hmm?” The man was taken aback. “What did you say? Say it again?”

“Time’s up!” Ian Blade said coldly as he flipped his wrist and sent out a blade light like a bolt of lightning.

“You dare court death!” The man, also at eighth-rank Perceiving Dao Realm, wasn’t afraid of Ian Blade and raised his hand to meet the blade light. But he soon regretted it!

The blade light tore through him effortlessly, blood spraying everywhere. The man looked down at the wound on his chest before collapsing lifelessly.
