Olivia, who had already comprehended the Sword Domain as a true master of martial arts, was now a martial lord of martial arts.Her Sword Domain had evolved to a level far beyond what it once was. Even though Olivia did not display her Sword Domain at its full strength, its power was still overwhelming. It not only covered the entire plaza but transformed it into a world of swords.Odin had not noticed the peculiarity, assuming Olivia had just unleashed a typical martial lord's domain."Olivia, is this your ultimate move? It's just a domain, something every martial lord of martial arts can use. Your domain is just a bit larger, that's all."Let me show you—bigger doesn't mean better!" Odin declared as he attempted to activate his own Sword Domain. As the senior of the Esoteric Sword Sect, he, too, had mastered the Sword Domain.However, as soon as Odin tried to deploy his domain, he felt shock rise within him—along with feelings of awkwardness. He could not believe it—his Sword Do
"Look at you, boasting like that," one of the elders remarked.Wilcox chuckled and said, "My disciple, Olivia, mastered the Sword Domain while still a true master of martial arts, which is typically something only martial lords can grasp. Now that she's a martial lord, guess what that implies?"The elders quickly connected the dots and were left speechless, their mouths agape in shock."Enough of this chatter," Wilcox said. "I'm going after my disciple to see why she's so eager to leave the sect.""No, Wilcox! You're the sect master of the Esoteric Sword Sect. It wouldn't look right if you're constantly absent from the sect. Besides, repeatedly forming an avatar consumes the sect's resources—it's too extravagant," one elder protested.Wilcox countered, "If you had a disciple like mine, would you let her go out alone? And besides, the cost of an avatar is nothing compared to the value of my disciple. You all should know which is more important."Seeing Wilcox's point, the elders f
These occurrences were unknown even to the divine Black Turtle or to Lucas and Caspian, who were trapped in the Dragon Vein Secret Realm.Only the powerful beings of this era truly understood them. If Skylar had not explained it to Chase, he would never have known such hidden truths.Chase had visited the Esoteric Medical Sect and met the sect master of the Esoteric Sword Sect. At the time, Chase found it odd. Despite being the leader of a top-tier sect, the strength he displayed seemed almost within his reach.Now, Chase realized that what he had encountered was likely just an avatar. The sect master's real body never walked the world."Basalt's Collins, someone's here to challenge you," Lottie's voice called from outside, snapping Chase out of his thoughts.Chase looked puzzled. "Who is it? Why would someone want to challenge me?"Chase had no idea that his casual remark had spread throughout the cultivation world. It was already dusk, which was most people's dinnertime. He cou
Chase leaned backward and evaded this unexpected stab.When he leaned back, his left leg kicked out hard and hit the woman's waist. The woman let go of the saber and moved in a flash to avoid Chase's attack.Chase thought the woman would give up her saber, which had stubbornly entangled itself on the Dragon Abyss Sword.The saber suddenly faded out while on the Dragon Abyss Sword and vanished.When it appeared again, it was in Summer Lyman's hand.It was a treasure that could come and go between the lines of reality.Chase's eyes narrowed.He knew that this saber was as powerful as the Dragon Abyss Sword."You're exactly like what the rumors say you are."The woman commented when Chase defended himself against her attack without issues."But it won't be so easy after this!"The woman suddenly shouted as she put her saber away."Obscure Sun!"Bright light instantly flashed from her body. Everything around her lit up despite it being night.She formed into a ball of brigh
Did she leave just like that?Chase was bewildered. The Obscure Sun Clan were quite straightforward people.He found himself liking them.Just as he was about to return to Herb Hall, he received a call.Despite being attacked by searing heat, Chase was not only fine but even his clothes and any item on him remained intact.He took out his phone to have a look.It was a call from Finn. He picked up the phone and answered it."Did something happen?""Master, we were stopped.""Who's brazen enough to stop you? How dare they stop my subordinates? Didn't you tell those people who you were?"Chase was taken aback. Gareth had given the order himself. No one in Capital City would dare to stop anyone from Basalt."Master, they refused to let us into Capital City because we said we're from Basalt. Master, I think it's best that you make a trip down here." Chase could sense the helplessness in Finn's tone.He asked for their location and flew into the air as he headed in their direc
The man took several steps forward as well until he was in front of Chase. He continued, "Chase Collins, take your Basalt and return where you came from. Capital City has no place for Basalt!""Who are you?"Chase asked once more."I'm the Red Phoenix's envoy, Constantine Red!"The young man was one of the two envoys of Red Phoenix, Constantine.Chase was surprised. He did not expect the people stopping them to be from Red Phoenix. Chase had never heard about anything regarding them since arriving at Capital City, but they were now right in front of him.He gave this some thought and figured there was only one possibility for them to be there. Chase decided to confront them about it."Mr. Cloves gave the order for Basalt's army to enter Capital City. Who are you to stop us? Has Red Phoneix stooped to becoming lapdogs of the Webers like White Tiger?""The Webers are useless things who aren't good enough to order us around. I don't think you're familiar with the politics in Capit
"Chase Collins, do you really want to fight with Red Phoenix over an ordinary man like Mr. Cloves?"Constantine looked angry when he realized that Chase was not kidding about this.Chase broke out with an angry laugh when he heard Constantine's words."Is Mr. Cloves just an ordinary man to you? Let me ask you this. If he's an ordinary man, what do you think you are? Mr. Cloves has done a lot for the country. He has secretly protected Bactria for so many years. "Do you think you would've been able to grow up with worries if it weren't for his protection? You wouldn't have been able to get on the path of cultivation or have the chance to grovel over Red Phoneix."Chase's words made Constantine feel ashamed.However, he quickly shook it off.He was now the Red Phoenix's envoy. He could not allow Chase to lecture him this way."Even without Mr. Cloves, there's still Mr. Chapel and Mr. Levin. Mr. Cloves isn't anyone special. Let's get straight to the point, Chase Collins. If you in
Constantine slapped the person who spoke up."Bullshit! Just kill them all! No one will ever find out if none of us say a word about it. Besides, do you really want to against Red Phoenix's orders? Don't worry, just go ahead and kill them. I'll take responsibility for anything that happens!"The Red Phoenix members no longer hesitated when they heard this. More than 30 of them attacked the Basalt members right away.However, a landslide victory did not happen for them as they expected.Twenty members of Basalt easily faced the attacks from more than 40 of them. Not only that, but Basalt began to counter-attack.Iris and Finn took the lead as two massive light blades began to form. The blades slashed down at the Red Phoenix members.What?!Constantine was standing at the front and could feel the direct force coming from the light blades.How was that possible?Constantine knew that once those light blades hit them, everyone, including him, would be finished.The ordinary Basal
