Chapter 613

Author: Dreamy Fire
The commanding voice caught Yates off guard.

A middle-aged man sitting among the group shot to his feet, his face drenched in sweat. He said, "Mr. Jordan, I'll go check it out!"

This man was Jonathan. With such esteemed guests present, an outburst like this was unacceptable. No one could bear the consequences if Yates, the Supreme Elder, lost his temper.

"Go ahead," Yates replied, his smile returning. "It's just a minor issue. Don't let it ruin the mood."

The guests, all seasoned figures in the martial world, remained unfazed. Every organization had its troubles, after all. The intruder's grudge was with Jonathan specifically, and given this was Polaris' headquarters, the issue would surely be handled swiftly.

Yates turned to Uzziah, steering the conversation back on track. "I heard the leadership of the Eight Great Martial Families has shifted. The Rubies have been knocked down from the top spot?"

Uzziah nodded. "Yes, a significant change. Those young ones always report back to

    Within minutes, the deputy sect leader burst into the hall, his face a mix of panic and fury. "This is madness!" Yates shot as he slammed his palm on the table, rising to his feet in a thunderous rage. He had assumed this was just some reckless troublemaker causing a scene, but to hear that even the sect leader could not handle the situation? That was an insult he could not bear."Stay seated, gentlemen. I'll handle this personally," Yates growled, disappearing in a flash before anyone could respond.Uzziah rose from his seat, glancing at the others. "Let's go take a look. I can tell you're all as curious as I am." Titus and Thaddeus did not hesitate, quickly following behind. There was no way they would miss seeing who dared to provoke Polaris to the point where even Yates had to step in.…When Yates arrived at the training ground outside, his expression instantly darkened. The sect leader, deputy leader, and a group of elders were all sprawled across the ground, barely cli

    The Oceanus Realm was a level of power far beyond the Aetherial Realm, achieved only when one could form an energy vortex within their core. The advancement in strength that came with reaching this realm was beyond description. Now fully comprehending Felix's power, Yates felt a wave of complex emotions. In his entire life, he had never witnessed someone as young as Felix reach the Oceanus Realm. Despite being considered a genius in his prime, Yates had spent his entire life stuck in this realm, unable to advance further. The others who had emerged earlier—Titus, Thaddeus, and Uzziah—all wore expressions of amazement."Who is this young man, and who trained him? He's so young, yet he's reached the Oceanus Realm!" Titus felt a mix of emotions, realizing his own training paled in comparison. Uzziah nodded in agreement. "They say each generation surpasses the last. I always thought Mason from the Jacobs family would lead this generation, but perhaps I've been too narro

    "More than 200 lives! And they were children! When you sleep at night, do their restless souls never come to haunt you?" Felix's voice boomed, each word sharp as a blade.Yates staggered back several steps, his face pale as a sheet. His gaze swept across the fallen sect members, none of whom dared meet his eyes. Only the sect leader, overwhelmed with guilt, broke into sobs as he choked out an explanation. "W-We did it to save the sect! Ten years ago, something crippled all of Polaris' businesses. We barely had enough money to keep the sect running for six months. "Without resorting to desperate measures, Polaris would have crumbled. We had no other choice!" Yates closed his eyes tightly as tears streaked down his face, his heart breaking at the revelation. For years, he had focused solely on his martial pursuits, oblivious to the horrors hidden beneath the surface.Titus, Uzziah, and Thaddeus were equally stunned. None of them could have imagined that a prestigious sect like Po

    "I have a bad feeling about this!" Uzziah, the strongest among them, immediately sensed the ominous presence spreading through the air. Thaddeus tried to stay composed. He glanced around nervously as the tremors beneath their feet grew stronger. "Uzziah, could it just be an ordinary earthquake?"As he asked, the intensity of the quake increased. Titus narrowed his eyes, scanning their surroundings for any potential threats. "Could Polaris still have some hidden powerhouse alive?" he wondered, his muscles tensing as he prepared for a fight.Suddenly, the training grounds split apart with an earth-shattering boom, sending debris flying. A massive hole appeared in the ground, and from within, a figure leaped out, landing near the barely standing Yates."Well, well," the figure sneered. "After all these years, Polaris has really hit rock bottom. One kid almost wiped out your entire leadership. What a way to honor my brother's legacy!"The newcomer was covered in a gray robe, their

    Mira's personality was similar to Averill's, but she was not as shamelessly bold as the latter.Mira smirked and added, "What's wrong? Were you expecting that little tramp, Averill? "Oh, don't act surprised. After she slept with you, she bragged about it in front of all of us! I ended up smacking her until she cried, which made the rest of us feel a little better." While Mira and Felix caught up, Titus, Uzziah, and Thaddeus stood frozen in disbelief. They never expected Felix to have a backup, let alone someone powerful enough to casually block Saylor's terrifying attack with nothing but an umbrella.It seemed that every genius had a hidden ace up their sleeve. Saylor, however, sneered as he watched the interaction. He thought, "Oh, I see now. No wonder this kid wasn't scared. He had someone in the shadows all along."Even though he had not detected Mira earlier, Saylor remained unfazed. His confidence remained unshaken, and he believed she probably just used an advanced conce

    When Felix returned to Canraville, Averill had already left. He woke up from a deep, satisfying nap at sunset.Just then, Xena arrived at his house. Felix asked, "Weren't you supposed to stay in Yartford for a few days?" Xena's expression was grim as she explained, "We discovered traces of human trafficking in Canraville. Though we only found about a dozen children at the scene, headquarters takes these cases very seriously and wants a thorough investigation, so I came back immediately." Felix feigned ignorance and responded with anger, "Human traffickers? Those bastards deserve to die."Xena studied Felix's face carefully. "Are you sure you don't know anything about this?""Why would I know anything?" Felix asked, puzzled.Xena leaned forward, noting that Felix's breathing and eyes remained steady. "The bodies showed evidence of acupuncture needles, and we can confirm they were tortured before death."Felix's expression turned wry. "Just because acupuncture needles were in

    Axel also adopted an unusually serious demeanor. "I don't know, but I heard Mr. Uzziah has emerged from seclusion."The young man's eyes widened in surprise. "Mr. Uzziah? Wow, Uzziah hasn't shown his face in years!"If he's coming out now and summoning everyone, something big must be happening. Could it be due to the leadership shift in the Eight Great Martial Families?" Axel frowned and shook his head. "I doubt it. Mason is a prodigy, sure, but he's not yet a big enough deal to bring Uzziah out. He still has a long way to go."Despite being just one level below Mason, crossing the first threshold from Ultimate Mortal Realm to Innate Realm was a challenge that had defeated countless so-called geniuses, including Axel himself.Meanwhile, the Crayden elders were also speculating about the situation. "Sir, do you know what's going on?" one of them asked cautiously. At the head of the gathering stood Augustus, the current patriarch of the Crayden family, flanked by several elder

    Augustus was stunned. Meanwhile, Axel wore a strange expression. He couldn't be mistaken. That man was undoubtedly Felix. It hadn't been long since he last saw him, so the memory was deeply etched in his mind."Axel, is this for real? He's way too young! How could someone like him make even Uzziah so wary? Damn! They even said the Craydens wouldn't step in to protect anyone who messes with him?"The young man beside him was visibly shaken. Frankly, most of the people around them felt the same. It would've made sense if Felix had been some ancient figure with decades of cultivation. However, unless Felix had discovered a fountain of eternal youth, he was just a young man."Holy—"Suddenly, Axel slapped himself, startling the young man beside him."Axel, what's wrong?"Axel suddenly broke into a wide grin, practically beaming with joy. "When I was a kid, a fortune teller told me that my 24th year would bring me great fortune. I guess he wasn't wrong!"If not for the need of prop

    "Back then, I was an S-rank Malevolent Phantom," Donna said. "There were tons of restrictions placed on me, so I couldn't say much even if I wanted to. "But now that I've reforged my soul, those restrictions are gone. My soul power and memories are all intact, so you should understand what that means."Felix's interest immediately sparked. He knew almost nothing about the Rank-Ascending Competition, and neither did Gerald. Funny how a former Malevolent Phantom might actually be his best source of information."I don't know everything, but I can tell you what I do know, as it could be of a little help. First off, our wave of Malevolent Phantoms was just the first. "The next group coming will be from the Orion family. They're extremely powerful. One of their ancestors won the Rank-Ascending Competition generations ago. They've already contacted multiple planets, and Earth is their next target."That caught Felix's attention, as Gerald had mentioned something about powerful familie

    Felix was startled. Cordelia's reaction meant something serious had happened."Mom! What's wrong?" he asked.It wasn't until he spoke that Cordelia seemed to realize her beloved Felix was awake. Without a second thought, she rushed over to him. "Felix, you're awake? Are you feeling okay? When we found you, you were covered in blood from head to toe."Felix wasn't concerned about himself."I'm fine, really. But what about you, Mom? What happened?"His question seemed to snap her out of it. Since he was alright, her expression lit up with joy."I'm just so happy. It's amazing news! Nerissa is pregnant!"Felix froze, completely caught off guard. Soon, panic kicked in. "She's pregnant? Wait. Does that mean I'm going to be a dad?"Even Nerissa looked shocked. She had only started noticing some symptoms and had gone for a checkup with Cordelia. She hadn't expected to be pregnant for real."That's right, you little rascal! Now do you see? Your mom's instincts were spot on! Look at

    Just then, the Ancient Sage's meridians finally stabilized. Without wasting a second, he unleashed his strongest move once again."Lightning Matrix!"A huge mouthful of blood burst from his lips. His face went deathly pale as he activated the secret technique. Disregarding the harm he was inflicting on his body, he struck Felix. This time, he unleashed the true Lightning Matrix, not the lighter version he used against Felix previously. "Bring it on!" Felix was completely fearless now. Although his energy was locked in place and his body was paralyzed, he radiated power."I'm about to compete in the Rank-Ascending Competition. There's no way I'll die here."It was like something inside him snapped. Felix suddenly burst into motion. Instead of passively handling the attacks, he charged straight toward the three lightning palms crashing down on him.Even the Ancient Sage was shaken. He could hardly believe that a battle could escalate to this level.When the smoke finally cleared,

    At that moment, within the dark clouds above, lightning began to gather. Soon, even the naked eye could see it taking the shape of a massive human palm. Felix unleashed his Dragon Punches, throwing everything he had to take down the enormous lightning palm that was crashing down on him.At that moment, Auroris emerged from the sand. Despite its disheveled fur and obvious injuries, it showed no fear of death. Standing beside Felix, it was ready to face the Ancient Sage's terrifying attack.A deafening explosion filled the air, forming a massive crater in the ground. It was more horrifying than before. A wave of sand was blasted upward, suspended for a few seconds before falling back to the ground. Stray arcs of lightning crackled in the air."What a pity," the Ancient Sage said.His breath was a little ragged. During the intense battle, his final strike had pushed his body to its limit. He felt sorry that Auroris, the beast he had grown fond of, had perished with Felix.A sudden

    "You old fool! How dare you think of laying your hands on my friend? You're asking for death!" Felix roared.He coughed up blood uncontrollably, and with a thought, Auroris charged straight at the Ancient Sage.While taking advantage of the opportunity, Felix used the Seven Points of Transcendence to heal himself. With Auroris's help, he believed he could now go toe-to-toe with the Ancient Sage."Ha! This is truly excellent!" The Ancient Sage was overjoyed as he fought with Auroris. Though Auroris's strength couldn't match his own, each of Auroris's attacks was infused with a soul component, which made them incredibly formidable.The Ancient Sage felt that such a rare beast was wasted on Felix. "You little thing, why don't you just acknowledge me as your master?"Having evolved once more, Auroris had grown significantly stronger. Its intelligence was never in question—when it saw that its soul-based attacks did not affect the Ancient Sage, it immediately shifted its focus entire

    As they spoke, Felix had already activated Lone Paragon, specifically its enhancement for martial strength.The saying "strike first to gain the upper hand" held especially true when facing someone as powerful as the Ancient Sage. At that moment, the Phaeron Projection appeared, and one of the most powerful secret techniques from the Six Word Mantra was unleashed in a sudden strike.The next instant, Felix's expression changed drastically. He raised his arms with a crack, and after a deafening impact, he was thrown backward."Hmph! How dare you show off such petty tricks in front of me?" The Ancient Sage scoffed. "Stick to your own path."Felix gave a bitter smile. Clearly, the Ancient Sage had more than just that soul-reflecting mirror among his collection of treasures.After defeating the S-tier Malevolent Phantoms, Felix had already reached Aetherium Realm, so his soul energy was pretty formidable.Yet, even with that powerful soul attack, he hadn't managed to injure the Ancie

    After returning to Newtown, Felix's life gradually settled into a steady rhythm. Naturally, he informed his family about his upcoming departure.Thankfully, both Cordelia and Nerissa were understanding people. They didn't question him. Instead, they offered their full support and encouragement.Jack, Madeline, and the others also made a trip to Newtown at Felix's invitation. He didn't tell them anything specific, treating the meetup as a casual reunion.Days passed, and with only half a month remaining, the inevitable finally came.Felix was out shopping with Nerissa that day when an SUV suddenly pulled over beside the street. The window rolled down, revealing an ordinary-looking old man behind the wheel, staring directly at Felix."Nerissa, you should head back first," Felix said.Sensing something was up, Nerissa clutched his arm tightly. "Honey, I'm going to call Eloise and the others."They all knew about the existence of the Ancient Sage, so the moment she saw the man, she

    Xena didn't look the least bit afraid. Instead, she simply turned her head and smiled."You must be Donna, the S-tier Malevolent Phantom Specter mentioned. You're the one who can peacefully coexist with Felix, right?"That's right. The newcomer was Donna. In fact, when she called Felix earlier, she was already in the city."Yes." Donna nodded.Without hesitation, Xena tossed the Mystical Explosive Orb over."I'm not interested in this thing. It's yours now. Just... don't kill me."Donna's eyes held a curious glint, but she still reached out and caught the orb."It seems like you've really changed a lot, and your instincts are sharp. How'd you know I came to kill you?"Xena stayed silent.Donna turned and walked away. "Whether I kill you or not doesn't make much difference to me. I'll spare you this time. Who knows, maybe someday, you and Felix will clash again."…Later that day, Donna sat across from Felix in a small restaurant."This is where our partnership ends," he sai

    Was Felix actually qualified to learn the Phaeron Codex? Why? How was that even possible?As someone who practiced the Red Moon Reincarnation Requiem, the Scarlet Lord had faced all kinds of enemies. Even when he couldn't win, he could usually survive. There was one exception—someone who could cultivate the Phaeron Codex. That was a threat he couldn't possibly contend with.However, the Phaeron Codex was nearly impossible to find, let alone master. On top of that, its cultivation requirements were absurdly high. In all these years, no one had managed to learn it until now. And that someone was Felix?The Scarlet Lord knew then that he wasn't getting out of this alive. Running into Felix was like a rat running into a tiger. No—it was worse.Now suppressed by the Phaeron Projection, he couldn't unleash a single technique. This was the fatal weakness of the Red Moon Reincarnation Requiem. And who would've thought the second person to master the Phaeron Codex would appear at just this
