Lord Came Back From The Battlefield

“I’ll go check if the barrier can be repaired. If it can, I might head back to the Akabuchi star domain first,” Billy responded.

Last time in the Five Elements Realm, the elder had passed on to him the basic principles of breaking the barrier, which included information about the array. He wanted to give it a try.

If he could indeed repair it, he planned to return to Glavale. He had been away from home for too long and it was time to visit. However, if he couldn’t repair it, he wouldn’t be able to leave. Who knew when someone from the mid-tier star domain would come again?

“The barrier can be repaired?” Lacey Allison was stunned.

“It’s worth a try!” Billy smiled.

“That would be great!” The people from the Mysterious Hall Sect all breathed a sigh of relief.

This time, it was thanks to the white-robed man that the crisis was averted. If someone came again, no one could guarantee that the white-robed man would help again.

After a few more exchanges, Billy led the group towards the Chasm entrance.

About a quarter of an hour later, they arrived at the entrance. Billy released his spiritual power to envelop the entire entrance and began to sort out the formation lines.

However, after working for a long time, he made no progress.

“Boss, how is it?” Azure Dragon asked.

“The array is too complex; I can’t make sense of it,” Billy shook his head slightly.

“Mr. Billy, this barrier should be arranged from the inside out. Do you want to try entering the passage?” Archie Allison suggested thoughtfully.

“I had that in mind!” Billy nodded slightly and looked at the group. “You all wait outside; I’ll go in and take a look.”

“Boss, won’t it be too dangerous for you to go in alone? Let us go with you,” Azure Dragon said.

“You all stay here. We don’t know what’s inside,” Billy responded.

“Alright then,” Azure Dragon nodded.

“Billy, be careful,” Harleen said.

“Got it,” Billy nodded.

Then, he focused his gaze, and his spiritual power surged out again, covering the barrier. His hands moved rapidly in the air, forming several afterimages that soon condensed into a mysterious pattern which he sent towards the barrier.

The next moment, a force rippled out, causing waves on the barrier like a stone thrown into a lake.

Almost simultaneously, Billy’s figure flashed into the center of the ripples.

In no time, the barrier returned to its calm state as if nothing had happened.

“He just went in?” Judge remarked.

“The array is indeed profound and amazing!” Soul Chaser replied.

A few minutes later, after passing through a pitch-black passage, Billy arrived in an unfamiliar space.

Looking around, he was slightly surprised. It was different from what he had imagined and unlike any teleportation passage he had experienced before.

It looked more like a small world with its own space. There were mountains and water, and an endless expanse of open land.

What surprised him more was that the open land was littered with severed limbs, and the air was thick with the smell of blood.

Billy frowned and released his spiritual power. Within a hundred kilometers’ range, he sensed no signs of life.

Ignoring other matters, he retracted his spiritual power and sat cross-legged on a large rock, beginning to search for the formation lines at the entrance of the passage.

The formation lines inside were indeed more orderly than those outside. After about an hour, Billy’s eyes lit up as he stood up, having found some clues.

He had to admit that this array was truly profound!

He knew that without the information left by the Ancestor, he wouldn’t have been able to figure out its intricacies no matter how much time he spent.

The array consisted of two parts: one was the barrier itself, which was a defensive array; the other part was the thunder array previously added to the barrier, which was an offensive array.

He could clearly feel that the defensive array was of a much higher level than the offensive array. This might explain why the thunder array was broken but the barrier remained intact.

Billy took out a sound transmission stone and sent a message to Harleen to prevent those outside from worrying.

After organizing his thoughts briefly, he began repairing the thunder array according to the information in his mind.

“He’s repairing the array! Stop him!” A voice of an old man sounded not far behind Billy shortly after.

“Hmm?” Billy frowned slightly and turned around.

He saw about fifty people flying towards him from a distance, led by an old man with a goatee.

Billy roughly assessed their cultivation levels; about half were at Entering Emptiness Realm while the rest were at late-stage Heaven Dao Realm.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

He couldn’t gauge the cultivation level of the leading old man, but he should be at late-stage Entering Emptiness Realm.

He was certain that this person hadn’t reached Perfection Emptiness Realm because he seemed much weaker compared to Spencer Hawkins from before.

“Who are you? Stop immediately!” One of four men at Entering Emptiness Realm shouted as he formed a seal with his hand and hurled it at Billy.

The man didn’t use his full strength because he had already assessed Billy’s cultivation level-eighth-rank Heaven Dao Realm-which was five or six levels lower than his own. Naturally, he didn’t take him seriously.

Billy responded with a Heavenly Fury Slash that flashed past him, splitting his body into two halves that fell from mid-air.

These people were clearly hostile, so he didn’t need to hold back.

“Hmm?!” The group was stunned by this scene; none had expected Billy to have such skills.

“You brat! You’re courting death!” Several mid-stage Entering Emptiness Realm men roared angrily and attacked together.

This time, they didn’t underestimate him and went all out from the start.

However, they soon despaired. Billy didn’t waste any words with them; he wielded his kylin blade and sent out slashes to meet their attacks.

With his bloodline power activated, his cultivation level could rise to half-step Entering Emptiness Realm. One Heavenly Fury Slash was enough to kill a sixth-rank Entering Emptiness Realm cultivator.

Before they could fully react, several men fell from mid-air one after another with looks of disbelief on their faces.

“Bastard!” The leading old man roared angrily and launched an attack with a wave of his hand, distorting space around them.

From his aura at this moment, it was clear that he was at ninth-rank Entering Emptiness Realm!

Billy still didn’t waste any words; he unleashed a Cracked Sky Slash that tore through space.

“Hmm?!” The old man’s pupils contracted sharply; it was too late for him to dodge.

After the slash passed by, a deep wound appeared on his waist, blood gushing out as he retreated five or six hundred meters in shock.

To his despair, before he could catch his breath, another slash was already upon him.
