ログインThe most decisive difference between Charlie and Barlin was that Charlie had no interest in the Flight of Transcendence at all.It sounded just like skipping preschool to attend a strange academy—one that ignored the education system entirely, treating every class from grade school through college as one and the same. So one could be the kindergarten bully one day, but then end up bullied by the most bullied kid in the academy the next. What was there to obsess over such a life?Charlie also didn't want immortality because it required far too many sacrifices. And would he really feel alive, spending his whole life cultivating repeatedly?Barlin understood Charlie's perspective just then, and sighed dejectedly. "I used to think that the Flight of Transcendence was a selection process, and the Trial of Transcendence was an examination, while the divine lightning of the Trial was the exam question… That it's all part of an opportunity given by superior beings when one hits the pass
Thinking that Charlie was buying into his lie, Barlin promptly shook his head. "No, of course not, my friend! It's all true!"Charlie laughed, shaking his head. "No, no, no. That's not what I mean."Seeing the mischievous grin on his face, Barlin quickly asked, "W-Well, what do you mean?"Charlie kept grinning as he replied, "You spent too much time cultivating that you haven't the faintest idea how society works. Barlin's heart skipped a beat, but he quickly made an innocent face, "What are you talking about, friend? I wasn't lying at all!"Charlie chuckled. "You said you were trying to get in, but when I detected you through Reiki, you were trying to enter a trance instead of attempting to get inside. Like you said, the Gate of Transcendence is a relic left by cultivators who succeeded in the Flight of Transcendence."That means they are endlessly more powerful and we are nothing more than ants under their boots. If they decide to keep us out, it's as simple as putting ants in
Feeling his death approaching, Barlin was now completely at wit's end.He had focused his Reiki into a barrier around him, but it was not completely blocking the damage from Charlie's Thunder Order because he had almost no Reiki left.Thunder Order was nothing like it had been before.Charlie's cultivation had advanced significantly, and the Thunderstrike Wood from the kombuc tree had elevated Thunder Order's power to an entirely new level. Against an ordinary person, or even a lower realm cultivator, a single bolt of lightning would have been enough to reduce them to ashes on the spot.Yet Barlin, relying on his formidable cultivation and the Reiki exchanged from burning his essence, had endured several bolts of lightning and still managed to cling stubbornly to life.However, losing a limb was a huge drop in combat ability and in his ability to defend himself, leaving him completely at Charlie's mercy.His voice cracking even as he lost his sanity from sheer horror, he told Cha
Barlin burst into tears right then, devastated as he cried, "Yes, I lived over a hundred years, but I've only lived like a normal person for about 20 years. The rest of my time has been spent cultivating my spiritual path in seclusion. How could I possibly have time to understand or engage with this world? Especially this modern, technologically advanced society, where everything is so revolutionary and groundbreaking…" Charlie sneered. "Choosing to cultivate and go into seclusion for a hundred years is your choice, not mine. Go take it up with Hades when you see him!" Barlin was horrified and kept crying, "Please, my friend… Oh! You despise Fleur, don't you? Do you want to know the secrets of the Qing Eliminating Society? I swear by the cosmic order that if you spare my life, I will tell you I know about her and the Qing Eliminating Society, including the location of the Qing Eliminating Society's headquarters! Everything, without holding anything back!" Swearing to the cosmos w
Although Charlie's pills were nearly depleted, he felt a surge of confidence.Still, he had no idea what had stopped Barlin's flying sword. In fact, he was completely protected from the seemingly unstoppable technique, Not only that, Barlin's flying sword had been completely shattered, reduced to dust.Moreover, Barlin was already low on Reiki, and had burnt through his essence trying to kill Charlie. Now that he had lost his flying sword as well, the situation had turned completely against him.With Charlie replenishing his Reiki with two pills this time, he now had an absolute advantage in both physical and magical items.Barlin, on the other hand, was in dire straits.He presumed the Infinite Sword would kill Charlie instantly, only for things to turn completely.That was just how things were—a single decisive moment that decides the entire outcome of battle, and thus the war. One can have both numbers and advantage, but one single moment can cancel it all out just like how
The dust in the air was ice shards due to the collision on the ice cap, but it was also fragments of Barlin's flying sword, as well as the vestiges of its clones.Even then, Barlin wasn't aware that he couldn't feel his flying sword because it was completely destroyed.As the polar gales blew and the dust settled, he thought he'd never forget what he was seeing for the rest of his life: Charlie, standing his ground.Despite being far inferior in cultivation—despite his violent assault… Charlie was still alive, while his flying sword was nowhere to be seen!However, Charlie was not in good shape either.His clothes were shredded, and he was bleeding from hundreds of cuts, with the blood coagulating as soon as it hit the polar air that was at least seventy degrees below.Either way, he was a tragic sight.Still, Barlin was gaping at him, and bellowed, 'Where's my sword, brat?!"Charlie looked at Barlin, and then at himself.He was just as shocked as the geezer, but he was calm—w
When the news of Badr’s death was confirmed, public opinion around the world was in an uproar!No one would have expected that Badr would die so suddenly!Just yesterday, Badr had vowed to take revenge on Ito-Schulz Ocean Shipping Group and kick Ten Thousand Armies out of the Gulf of Aden at the same
Meanwhile, Claire was preparing to eat lunch at the company.As there were a lot of official duties and business at the company, Claire would usually not bother to go home to eat at noon. Instead, she would eat takeouts at the company because this would save her more than an hour.She was just about t
Meanwhile, Kathleen, who was still in the private room, was completely unaware of the events happening outside.After all, they were at a place located next to the national highway. There were a lot of noises since many vehicles whizzed past the area. Some overloaded trucks passed by occasionally, ma
Many were still stunned from astonishment. Amid this, Travis didn’t hesitate to raise his hand and shouted determinedly, “I’ll pay one hundred million US dollars!”Charlie, who was in the monitoring room, smiled admiringly. “Travis Lane is really smart. He knows because of his lacking finances, he’d
