Lord Came Back From The Battlefield

“Only two levels?” Billy checked his own body as he spoke. Indeed, he was only at the fourth-rank Heaven Dao Realm.

“This shouldn’t be!” Billy frowned slightly.

“Perhaps this encounter wasn’t meant to enhance your cultivation,” Purple Spirit suggested. “It might have been to temper your physique and bloodline. Your body must have undergone some changes, though it’s unclear exactly what.”

“Possibly!” Billy nodded and continued, “Purple Spirit, come out of my body for a moment. Let’s go outside.”

“What’s the matter?” Purple Spirit asked.

“I feel my bloodline power has increased significantly, and my resistance to attacks should be much stronger. Help me test it!” Billy said.

“Are you serious?” Purple Spirit asked.

“You’ll know once you try!” Billy responded.

In no time, the two walked out of the cave.

“Purple Spirit, give it your best shot! Use your strongest move!” Billy said, looking at Purple Spirit.

“Are you sure?” Purple Spirit asked.

“Yes!” Billy nodded.

“Then be careful, Billy!” Purple Spirit said as she began to activate her power.

Unity of man and sword!

In the next moment, a purple sword shot towards Billy, tearing through the void.

Facing Purple Spirit’s full-force attack, Billy stood still, activating his bloodline power.

A loud bang echoed as waves of energy surged. Billy’s figure was instantly thrown two to three thousand meters away.

“Ah…” Purple Spirit exclaimed and quickly flew over. “Billy, are you okay? Are you…”

Halfway through her words, a look of shock flashed across her face.

Billy stood in mid-air, with only a slight trace of blood at the corner of his mouth. His aura was barely affected.

It was known that even a third-rank Entering Emptiness Realm expert couldn’t withstand her unity of man and sword attack. But Billy had stood there without moving and took her attack head-on without any harm?

“Billy, your resistance to attacks is unbelievable!” Purple Spirit couldn’t help but say.

“It seems it has indeed strengthened!” Billy smiled faintly.

He estimated that now, even an opponent one major realm higher than him would have difficulty injuring him unless they went all out.

“It’s truly unbelievable!” Purple Spirit added.

“Let’s go check on Casey and Harleen,” Billy smiled again.

“Alright!” Purple Spirit said before re-entering Billy’s body.

“Elder Omar, it’s him!”

Just as Billy was about to take off, a man’s voice came from nearby.

Soon after, a group of people flew over from a distance.

Leading them was a hunched old man with only a few strands of hair left on his head. His skin was like pine bark, clearly an ancient being who had lived for centuries.

Beside him was an old woman, also an ancient being, looking like she was at death’s door.

Following them was a middle-aged man, the one who had spoken earlier, with half-step Entering Emptiness Realm cultivation.

The dozen or so people behind them were also not weak; the weakest among them was at the early stage of Heaven Dao Realm.

“I heard you have a method to break the barrier of the Star Domain Chasm?” the hunched old man asked Billy in a raspy voice.

“You want it?” Billy replied calmly.

Although he couldn’t gauge their exact cultivation levels, he could sense that the old man was at least one level higher than Bowen, likely a fourth-rank Entering Emptiness Realm expert. The old woman seemed to be one or two levels lower but was at least a second-rank Entering Emptiness Realm expert.

“Are you willing to give it?” the hunched old man responded.

“Are you from the Celestial Realm?” Billy asked.

“The Celestial Realm people are indeed looking for you everywhere, but we were lucky to find you first,” the hunched old man said.

“So you’re not from the Celestial Realm?” Billy narrowed his eyes slightly. “State your name!”

This star domain truly hid dragons and crouching tigers. The fact that they weren’t from the Celestial Realm yet had fourth-rank Entering Emptiness Realm strength was impressive.

“We’re nobodies. No need to mention our names,” the hunched old man replied.

“I do have a method to break that barrier, but I’m afraid you won’t be able to make me hand it over,” Billy said.

“Just as rumored, you’re quite arrogant!” The hunched old man chuckled. “I heard you have a blade technique that can kill third-rank Entering Emptiness Realm opponents?”

“Do you want to see it?” Billy asked again.

“The old woman and I indeed want to learn from you,” the hunched old man responded.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“Trust me, you wouldn’t want to see it,” Billy smiled faintly.

“Let’s give it a try!” the old woman replied.

“Then make your move!” Billy said calmly.

“Alright!” The hunched old man and the old woman spoke simultaneously.

Seeing this stance, the people behind them quickly retreated several thousand meters away.

The aura of the hunched old man and the old woman exploded, enveloping the entire void in an extremely terrifying pressure.

The hunched old man raised his hand with a wave, causing violent winds and dark clouds to gather in the void, with thunder flashing-a scene of impending doom.

In the next moment, a massive fireball appeared not far in front of him, surrounded by lightning crackling with a sizzling sound.

“If you can take this move, you win!”

With the old man’s deep voice, the huge fireball spun rapidly, creating a terrifying momentum.

The void seemed to ignite directly as the temperature in the air continued to rise.

At the same time, the old woman also made her move.

A cage made of spiritual power materialized around Billy and quickly contracted while the void cracked simultaneously.

It was clear they were using a combination attack. The old woman’s aim was to trap the opponent and force them to consume a large amount of Chi power to counteract the cage. If the opponent’s strength was insufficient, even if they escaped the cage’s confinement, they couldn’t withstand the hunched old man’s attack.

As soon as the hunched old man moved, Billy also acted.

This time, he didn’t use his kylin blade but raised his hand to form Dragon Soaring Skies.

He had a vague feeling that after awakening his bloodline this time, Dragon Soaring Skies’ power might also have significantly increased. So he wanted to test it!

Nine divine dragons stirred up the void into chaos. The entire sky roared with gales and thunderbolts.

In just a few moments, Nine Dragons Unite formed a giant dragon more imposing than before, emitting a much richer yellow glow around its body.

In the next moment, the giant dragon roared like a living creature and charged towards the hunched old man.

Under its impact, the old woman’s cage shattered instantly without any resistance.

The old woman spat out a mouthful of blood and was blown away like fallen leaves in an autumn wind for thousands of meters.

Then, the giant dragon crashed directly into the hunched old man’s fireball.

A deafening explosion shook the heavens as both attacks detonated simultaneously. The center of the explosion collapsed instantly, leaving a massive black hole. Under the impact of the energy waves, both Billy and the hunched old man were thrown backward.

Soon after, all pressure in the void dissipated. The collapsed void restored its original appearance. Billy and the hunched old man stood in mid-air without making another move.

“We lost. Impressive!”

After a while, the hunched old man spat out a large mouthful of blood as his aura deflated like a punctured balloon. His combat strength dropped to less than fifty percent as he barely remained standing in mid-air, his energy waning.
