Jade had been led into a state of meditation without her doing anything.At that moment, her feelings changed again.In just one minute, Chad had entered a state of visualization.She had never heard of anyone being able to enter visualization so quickly.Chad was a monster. However, before she could be amazed, everything changed before her eyes, as if she had returned to her childhood."Bastard! Mongrel! Your mother is a shameless woman!""Hit her!"That was when Jade, at the age of six, was bullied on the street."To become an assassin of the Inkwell Clan, you must take it. In the future, you'll take the antidote once every seven days. Those who can't endure it will die!"That was when Jade, at the age of ten, joined the Inkwell Clan assassins and was forced to drink the poison."I like this girl; make her my disciple!""Yes, Grandmaster. It's her fortune to become your disciple..."That was when she left the assassins.At that point, Jade realized that Chad had already
"Stubborn little bug! Stop moving!"Marilyn looked at the zombie-like woman in front of her and struggled desperately.She was covered in yellow talismans, and every time she struggled, the golden light emitted by the talismans would forcefully suppress her.Marilyn discovered the talismans quickly turned to ashes once they emitted their golden light.So she twisted her body desperately, even trying to scream to break free from the restraints.However, she could not make a sound when she opened her mouth."Little girl, don't struggle. You're lucky to be possessed by me!" the woman said, pointing a finger at Marilyn's brow.Marilyn's vision went black, and when she could see again, she saw herself covered in yellow talismans.With just one finger, the woman caused Marilyn's soul to leave her body."It's quite troublesome to control a sage," the woman said as she stiffly removed several rocks tied with ropes and began to bind Marilyn's hands and feet."If it weren't for the bac
Throughout the process, Jade stood at the door, thoroughly impressed by Chad's methods.From her perspective, she had been lucky during her fight against Chad because it was a sneak attack.If it had been a direct confrontation, Jade would have struggled to hold on beyond the third move and would have been easily defeated.Especially since Chad could use the top-tier Soul Capturing Art of the shamans."I don't know who you are, but can we make a deal? Let me go—"The woman's voice came from the dragon scale, but Chad refused to listen. He threw the dragon scale into his jacket pocket.Then, Marilyn woke up. "Chad, where is this? Why am I here?"Jade watched the scene, thinking that even the renowned Dark Phoenix had a soft, feminine side."It's alright now. I'll get you out of here..." Chad said as he picked up Marilyn to leave, but Jade stopped him."Mr. Jennings, we can't leave now. If we do, Marshawn will tear off his mask. I think it would be better to use this to our adva
The scene that greeted Chad was not the fairytale-like land he had imagined but an apocalyptic landscape.White dunes stretched endlessly, and no one was flying in the sky. Instead, everyone was wrapped up tightly, walking quickly with their heads down."Master is so annoying! I'll get a tan from the sun!" Freya complained as she quickened her pace, then quickly ducked into a cave.Inside, it was a different world—lush peaks, thick forests, and flowerbeds everywhere, with pebbles lining a shallow stream, making it cool and pleasant to walk in."Little Freya, come quickly and see what I've discovered!"A hearty laugh came from a distance, causing Freya to shiver as she hurried forward with trepidation."What did you discover?" she asked as she walked around a cluster of hibiscus flowers.Through Freya's eyes, Chad saw the girl's master, but the sight left him stunned."I found the Tri-Life Stone, a divine artifact that can split our primordial spirit into three!""Really?"Sup
Chad was quite surprised. However, when he thought about Jade's appearance when she was young, he felt it made sense. He had to admit, young Jade was incredibly alluring. Her figure and looks were not the best, but her aura was something no man could resist."Unfortunately, her daughter discovered my secret, so I killed her! I still remember the child's name, Kate Williams. Marshawn adored her. He was devastated when I killed her," Freya said.Chad understood why Jade killed Terry and Luke after hearing Freya recount the events of the past.Freya sneered, "You might not know this, but Jade told Marshawn that it was you who killed Terry and Luke—"Chad interrupted her, "I know! But that's not important. I only want to know about the time when my sister was kidnapped—""I won't tell you. And don't think you can visualize it from my memory!" Freya interrupted Chad and forcibly destroyed part of her primordial spirit."You!" Chad was shocked that Freya could go to such lengths.In h
"Absurd!" Chad muttered softly after an indeterminate amount of time, then left the room and went to see Marilyn."May I come in?"Jade opened the door."You should leave," Chad said. Jade complied, leaving only Chad and Marilyn in the room."There are some things you need to remember. From now on, your name is Freya, an immortal from the realm of immortals..."Chad explained everything he had seen in the visualization to Marilyn.He repeatedly emphasized, "Remember, you need to go into seclusion because you just completed a body takeover. Understand?"After having Marilyn repeat everything to ensure she understood, Chad left feeling reassured.Only by ensuring his sister's safety could Chad proceed with his plan.Finally, Chad called Jade back in, confirming multiple times that there were no surveillance devices in the basement before he felt safe to return to his tasks.Glancing at the large ceramic bowl containing the formed pill, Chad noted the time and began to meditate.
The fox glanced at the half-dead emergency doctors and grinned with a disturbingly human-like expression. "Eat them!"With that command, a swarm of small foxes burst into the room, swarming over the victims.In an instant, the basement was filled with the pungent scent of blood as the little foxes devoured the doctors like a whirlwind.Crack... Crack...Eventually, the only sound left in the basement was the foxes gnawing on bones. The bones were crushed and swallowed, leaving not even fragments behind.Once they had finished, the small foxes dispersed, leaving the floor stained with large patches of crimson, creating a ghastly scene.Finally, Third Granny Fox looked at Marshawn. "Get out. I need to transform."Marshawn walked away respectfully, saying nothing. As soon as the door shut, inhuman screams filled the room.With a sinister grin, Marshawn moved deeper into the basement, where a massive pool was located. Luke, surrounded by strange, headless black worms, floated in th
Buzz!Suddenly, Chad's entire body emitted a deep, low-frequency vibration. After a minute, he spat out a mouthful of blood.Lord Fifth hurried to Chad's side. "What happened?""Heh! It's nothing. The inner elixir is formed!"Chad grinned, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and resumed meditation.At that moment, his stomach contained three inner elixirs wrapped in his inner energy.However, those inner elixirs could not be used lightly because they were berserk pills.For an ordinary person, consuming one would result in instant death.Depending on their level of strength, practitioners could only last from ten to a hundred breaths.Chad had crafted those pills betting on his fused state, also called Immortal Unity, being able to withstand the side effects of the berserk pills.In one night, he planned to unleash all his potential, instantly elevating himself to the highest level.However, Chad was not sure what level his Immortal Unity could reach when fully act
As Chad sat in meditation on Decaying Peaks, a faint, glowing white immortal crown slowly appeared behind his head. When that immortal crown manifested, a quake occurred everywhere outside Mount Causabour. The frequency of those tremors was extremely high, and everyone could clearly feel them. The vast area they covered included the entire Hacniane. It was as if some ancient seal in the vast sky had been triggered.Chad opened his eyes in shock amid his breakthrough, realizing that the impending heavenly punishment seemed to be directed at him and the millions of mystical beings beneath Mount Causabour.Suddenly, a thunderous voice erupted in the sky, as loud as a bolt of lightning:"Cut off the road to the heavens, seal the underworld; a red banner halts a million immortals, and a red star exterminates ghosts and demons!"Sever Yggdrasil, raise the grand array; a handful of Evergrow blocks the celestial river, and the vast multiverse bows to humanity!"By decree, this is a real
Sir Holt anxiously looked up at the sky as the tribulation clouds suddenly began to churn violently.Crack! Crack! Crack!At that moment, the first bolt of heavenly punishment finally struck.However, that bolt of divine lightning fell upon the mirage of the Mystic Archive, where it disappeared without a trace. The entire Mount Causabour shook a few times, and everyone could feel a soothing sensation within the mountain.Anyone who felt this would experience a surge of confidence deep within, and any discomfort they felt in their bodies seemed to improve significantly.On Decaying Peaks, that sensation was even more pronounced, and more and more people began to manifest the immortal crown behind their heads. In just a few minutes, nearly everyone on Decaying Peaks, hundreds of people in total, had an immortal crown appear behind them.That included Flynn and Harvey, who were sitting on the outskirts of Decaying Peaks. They, too, had immortal crowns appear behind their heads.How
Sir Holt and Zayan looked up at the sky with expressionless faces, though their hearts were in turmoil. Within the rolling clouds, faint traces of multicolored light shimmered.As time passed, the colorful lights appeared more frequently, as if gradually consuming the clouds."Such intense ascension light—there must be tens of thousands ascending!""There are probably more. The latest statistics show that 264,777 people have entered Mount Causabour!""Over 260,000? How did so many people get here?"Zayan looked at Sir Holt in shock, and Sir Holt turned his gaze toward the winding mountain road leading into the area."There are still many more people outside trying to get in, but the place is already so crowded that they can't fit."Zayan looked with concern toward the entrance to the mountain. "Won't those stuck on the road cause a disturbance?""They won't!" Sir Holt said with certainty. "Unless they're fools, they've probably already started meditating where they are. Even if
Among the 250,000 people, quite a few were not actually autistic patients. After sleeping for two full days, Chad woke up and realized that possibility. He carefully considered the potential issues that might arise during the process and decided to issue an announcement."The treatment will begin shortly. Non-autistic patients are advised to leave the Mount Causabour area to avoid unnecessary complications."That announcement was broadcast three times through loudspeakers positioned throughout Mount Causabour. Finally, the loudspeaker voice declared, "The treatment will officially begin in one hour!"At the same time, Chad made his way to the Decaying Peaks, the summit of Mount Causabour, where an over-century-old pavilion stood.Entering the pavilion, Chad sat down in a meditative position. Soon, he noticed a dense crowd gathering around the pavilion, all sitting in meditation poses around him.As Chad glanced over those people, he recognized several familiar faces. The people ar
Mount Causabour Medical Center, built halfway up Mount Causabour, was a sizable palace-style complex with three courtyards. The center was constructed along the mountain's slope, extending all the way to the base of the Decaying Peaks. Flynn and Harvey were placed in the innermost courtyard, suggesting that their grandfather, Fenton Cooper, likely knew some inside information but had not shared it with his grandsons.On that day, the Hacniane Cabinet issued several announcements. First, they created separate legislation for ability users and cultivators to regulate their powers. Second, they planned to designate special zones in each city for ability users and Mystics, separating them from ordinary people. Lastly, they urgently introduced the Sixteen Temporary Rules for Ability Users and Mystic Practitioners to regulate their behavior.Those announcements seemed like they were aimed at restricting ability users, but in reality, they were meant to reassure ordinary people, ensurin
A massive leap in the realm could bring unimaginable fortune to the dragon vein, potentially altering Hacniane's fate.That was also Chad's grand gift to the two elders, using the sudden surge in the dragon vein's power to help Hacniane avoid the impending catastrophe triggered by the nuclear explosion of the firmament.Earlier that day, through Chad's Clairvoyant Eye, he saw Kennington shrouded in a faint gray-black mist. Chad did not know what it was but felt it resembled Evergrow, yet not quite the same.However, Chad was certain that accidents would surely happen if ordinary people were exposed to it in large quantities. As a Mystic, he could already feel its effects on his body.At that moment, Sir Holt got into the car, looking at Chad with a solemn expression. "Kid, give me the bottom line!"After careful consideration, Chad laid out his thoughts. Upon hearing them, Sir Holt began to tremble. According to Chad, he would need to mobilize at least 100,000 troops to ensure the
Having a Mystic Archive and unlocking a Mystic Archive were two different matters. Only a handful of people were recorded to have a Mystic Archive throughout history. There were only two earliest verifiable individuals with documented works still in existence.The first was Hugo Gerant, a renowned physician from an ancient empire, a practitioner of Mystic Therapeutics, and an alchemist. His surviving medical works include The Hundred Letters, Gerant's Emergency Treatments, and the famous Embracing Simplicity.After his death, several notable physicians throughout history have inadvertently inherited his Mystic Archive, but none have fully inherited it. It was said that Mystics knew the method to obtain Gerant's Mystic Archive a thousand years ago, but that knowledge had since been lost.The second individual is Damian Lotin, a figure from another ancient dynasty. He left behind many works, including one titled The Whisper of the Blue Plant.Aside from them, other people who possess
Chad gave them a cold smile. "Extract the immortal bone to cure the illness.""No! Absolutely not! I won't allow it!""Me neither. There's no way we can let that happen!"The entire room erupted into panic. Some even tried to attack Chad, but they were quickly subdued.Chad looked at them and said, "Then tell me the truth.""I'll speak! I failed my tribulation and fell from the celestial realm. I used to have nine crowns, but now I'm down to five...""And me! I also fell from the celestial realm after failing my tribulation. Now I only have three crowns...""I disguised myself as one of the wounded soldiers and was brought here. After losing all my cultivation, I've since regained two crowns!""I was brought back from the firmament by my husband. After we arrived here, I lost all my cultivation and never practiced again. We had a child later, and he was perfectly normal, but I never expected my grandson to..."As those people spoke, Zayan and Sir Holt were stunned! Those peopl
"You know the cause of the illness?"Zayan was shocked, almost in disbelief."Do you realize this child is the same age as you? Even your master examined him but couldn't find the cause!"Chad nodded and said, "But I do know, and I have a bold theory—that the cause of autism in all these children might be the same..."As he spoke, some thoughts suddenly flashed through Chad's mind, shocking even him, leading him to say, "And I suspect this might be related to the increasing number of ability users and cultivators over the past century!""Really?!"Zayan grabbed Chad's arm, hardly believing what he was hearing.However, Chad spoke with firm conviction, "It's very likely true, but I need to see more children with autism.""Wait here; I'll make arrangements right away!"Soon, Chad and his group arrived at the largest hospital in Kennington, the Ninth Military District Hospital, and Xyder was also brought along. Chad saw hundreds of children with autism there!Before entering the
