Otherwise, she would not have done that.Furthermore, with Septimus’ strength, he could have easily killed Andrius and taken the Sky Genesis Sword. Not doing so proved his sincerity.After realizing that, Andrius said, “To be honest, although I’ve obtained the Sky Genesis Sword, I know nothing of its secrets. Could you enlighten me?”Andrius only had a vague idea from Ethan that the sword was the Klein family’s true treasure. However, he had no specifics.“Well…”Septimus hesitated before smiling bitterly. “Frankly, I’ve only heard bits and pieces about the Sky Genesis Sword, so I don’t know much about it. How about you come with me to the Immortal Cultivation Alliance Headquarters and ask the alliance leader himself?”Yvie became excited.She was held high up in the Immortal Cultivation Alliance and constantly surrounded by people who revered her like the moon in the sky. It was rare for someone to treat her like Andrius would.Besides, the life-threatening experience she shar
Yvie frowned at the answer, while Septimus glanced at Andrius in surprise.With that, the next few days were spent traveling.Traveling through the void took time, and the Immortal Cultivation Alliance headquarters was too far away. Even with mystical means, they had to embark on a long journey.Several days later, they emerged from the void again, and Andrius saw a magnificent city before him. It stretched endlessly, blending with the sky.Although ancient, it stood majestically, even after being around for countless ages“Andrius.” Yvie introduced eagerly, “That’s Nightless City, the headquarters of the Immortal Cultivation Alliance. Let’s go.”Then, she bounced ahead.Andrius could not help but remember a line from the ‘Records of Profundity’ that read, “Where clouds and mountains stretch for miles, at the end of the sky lies the city without nightfall.”He could not believe that Nightless City existed and was the headquarters of the Immortal Cultivation Alliance.Andrius t
“How dare they!”He was in Nightless City and had no idea what was happening at the time, so he was understandably enraged.Yvie quickly said, “Dad, calm down and let me finish.”Then, she recounted how Andrius saved her and how she found Septimus to rescue them.“I see.” Silas’ expression improved, and he looked at Andrius with increasing appreciation. “Andrius, I owe you a great debt for saving Yvie. How about this?”He thought about it and continued, “Since you’re still injured, why don’t I activate the alliance’s grand formation to help your recovery?”Andrius gratefully agreed. “Thank you, Silas.”Then, the group headed to the formation site.Unbeknownst to Andrius, that move caused a stir in the alliance.“The grand formation is a sacred place for alliance members to cultivate and heal. It consumes numerous treasures yearly to maintain its miraculous properties and can’t be used indefinitely. Only alliance members are allowed to benefit from it, but now… Isn’t the Allian
Andrius naturally did not refuse it.He immediately used a technique to absorb all the spiritual energy and began to break through to the mid-Nascent Soul stage.Finally, under the continuous spiritual energy and Andrius’ persistent attempts, a resounding boom echoed from his meridians.The small Nascent Soul in his dantian emitted a radiant light, and its features became much clearer, signaling he had succeeded in breaking through to the mid-Nascent Soul stage!At that point, the vortex of spiritual energy above his head slowly dissipated with a whoosh, and Andrius felt better than ever.With a wave, the Linebreaker Overlord appeared in his hand.“Overlord’s Return! Journey of a Thousand Miles! Unrivaled Under the Heavens!”The spear techniques flowed effortlessly.Finally, with ‘Tyrant’s Ascendance’, he struck a practice stone in the formation, leaving a deep gash on it. It was a powerful attack at the late Nascent Soul stage.Andrius was overjoyed. With such power, he could
“Mr. Moonshade, you’re left with one option: to marry Ms. Yvie and become part of the alliance.”“Mr. Moonshade, the Alliance Leader has said that the next person to use the secret formation would be his son-in-law!”“Mr. Moonshade, you’re young and promising, and Ms. Yvie is a beauty. The two of you are a match made in heaven. Just agree and thank Alliance Leader Murdock!”“Mr. Moonshade…”They all piped up, their stance clear—they wanted Andrius to marry Yvie.This time, Andrius was truly confused.He thought Silas was being kind by letting him use the formation for healing and cultivation, not expecting to become entangled in a marriage arrangement after coming out.After all, he already had a deep bond with Luna and complicated relationships with Halle, Anna, Kate, and many other women. Now adding Yvie to the mix… What should he do?“Andrius.” Silas interrupted Andrius’ thoughts.He looked at Andrius with a smile and said, “What’s wrong? You’re not feeling shy, are you?”
‘Another option?’ Yvie froze.“That’s right!”The elders chimed in. “According to the alliance’s rules, if someone benefits from the secret formation but refuses to pay the price, there’s another option, and that’s to pass through the Gate of Living Death!”At the mention of the Gate of Living Death, Yvie’s face paled further.From Yvie’s understanding, fewer than a handful of people had walked out of the Gate of Living Death. However, that was the elders’ concession, and there was nothing else she could say.“Andrius.” Silas asked, “If you refuse to marry Yvie, you must pass through the Gate of Living Death. Have you thought it through?”Andrius said firmly, “I have.”His words struck Yvie’s heart like a knife.“Very well.” Silas sighed when he saw the sad look on Yvie’s face. “The Gate of Living Death is a perilous place in the Immortal Cultivation Alliance. Even a powerful expert at the Hollow stage could be in danger.“I’ll give you two days to prepare. If you change your
“The Gate of Living Death...” Yvie introduced, “is a dangerous place in the Immortal Cultivation Alliance.“Generally speaking, only disciples who have made big mistakes will be punished by entering the Gate of Living Death, seeking a chance at survival.“The Gate of Living Death has a saying that life and death are destined by fate, and fate is determined by the heavens.“It means that inside the Gate of Living Death, your life and death will not be up to you but to the heavens. You can’t get through with just strength. Apart from some simple traps, there are also some powerful monsters in there.”Yvie told Andrius everything she knew, and Andrius listened attentively since his life was at stake.After half an hour, she asked, “Do you remember everything?”“Yeah, more or less.” Andrius nodded.Yvie had said all she had to say and had no idea how else to continue. Suddenly, the room fell silent.Looking at his handsome face, she asked, “Andrius, are you sure you don’t want to m
“Mr. Moonshade, today is the day you’ll enter the Gate of Living Death. Please come with us.”Andrius was not surprised. “Let’s go.”Thus, the group arrived at a valley.On both sides were steep mountains, and in the middle was a rusty gate, which was none other than the infamous Gate of Living Death.The Immortal Cultivation Alliance Leader, Silas Murdock, and many elders were already waiting.“Andrius, you’re here.”Silas looked at Andrius and nodded before asking bluntly, “It’s been two days. Have you made up your mind? Will you pass the Gate of Living Death or marry my daughter, Yvie, and from then on, cease wandering and focus on cultivation?”Everyone fell silent as they looked at Andrius, waiting for his answer.Andrius simply said, “Thank you for all your help, Silas. Open the gates.”He made it clear that he would not marry Yvie.Everyone could not help but sigh. It was as if they were lamenting Andrius’ missed opportunity and felt sorry for him.“Very well!” Silas
Noir immediately checked the life token.It was unbroken!This meant that Andrius was still alive, and he must have ascended to the Divine Realm.Noir was relieved.Remembering his responsibility to protect Luna, he exchanged a glance with Halle, Kate, and the others before quietly leaving.Not long after, a group arrived at the Immortal Demon Palace and began their cultivation, striving to ascend to the Divine Realm as soon as possible.In an ancient and desolate location, there were grand halls, statues of fierce beasts that still seemed lifelike despite the passage of time, sky-piercing pillars, and a sea of clouds...Everything looked majestic and awe-inspiring.However, it was eerily silent, like a dead land devoid of life.Until...Whoosh!A ray of light suddenly shot from the distance, moving at an unimaginable speed and entering the soul control orb at the center of the great hall.Then, a soul apparition started to form.It was none other than Andrius.He looked
Andrius’ condition was pretty bad.He thought that with his current realm and strength, he could handle the divine tribulation and successfully ascend to the Divine Realm.However, the strength of the divine tribulation far exceeded his expectations.He seemed to have easily dealt with the first strike.In reality, the moment the divine lightning struck his palm, the destructive force within it surged through his meridians and directly attacked his soul.As expected of the divine tribulation.So, Andrius did not dare to be careless anymore and immediately gathered his immortal essence to resist.However, that was just the beginning.Each divine bolt was stronger than the last, and their deafening sounds and unstoppable destructive power left Andrius in agony.The tribulation cloud showed no signs of dissipating, too. Instead, it grew even darker and heavier, pressing down on everyone until they could not breathe.Rumble—Crackle—The thunder rumbled relentlessly, and the li
If his true form was destroyed and his soul dispersed, the life token would shatter.That would be how Noir and the others would know about his situation.For the rest of his time, since short-term improvements were difficult at his level, he did not cultivate. However, Andrius meditated every day to calm his mind and clear his thoughts.Soon, three months passed.Sensing the increasingly intense presence of the tribulation, Andrius did not hide anymore and removed the effect of the Primordial Unity Pearl that was concealing his aura.Whoosh...An immense power surged forth, and massive tribulation clouds soon formed in the sky.At that moment, Andrius sat on top of a desolate mountain.A large crowd had gathered in the distance.It had been many years since anyone in the Immortal Realm had attempted the divine tribulation. Furthermore, Andrius had deliberately invited many people to witness the event to broaden the influence of the Lunarius Alliance.“Hiss... As expected of
Andrius chuckled. “It’s not that serious. I already have a plan.”“Tell me, Andy.”“I have an extraordinary treasure. The treasure itself contains its own independent space filled with countless treasures and living beings. Furthermore, the spiritual energy inside is ten, a hundred times richer than the outside world. I plan to entrust this treasure to you. Carve out a secluded area within it for Luna to recover.”Andrius slowly explained.The extraordinary treasure he spoke of was none other than the Immortal Demon Palace.With his current strength, crossing the divine tribulation would not be a problem.The Immortal Demon Palace was an independent realm constructed by the beings of the Divine Realm. Even figures like Cedric, the Blood Demon King, the Hidden Monarch, and the others had no choice but to follow its rules.Hiding Luna inside would ensure her safety.Of course, there was a small problem. If Andrius perished in the Divine Realm, as the owner of the Immortal Demon P
It was as if the dragon soul had always been part of his body.“How strange...”Andrius muttered to himself and continued to observe.Nothing happened.The dragon soul quickly integrated into his own without any further events.It only gave Andrius a vague sense of completeness, like something had filled a gap within him.It was a mysterious and eerie feeling.Swoosh...After the dragon soul left, the massive dragon bones collapsed, turning into a pile of white ash on the ground.It was clear that the dragon bones were preserved until now solely because of the dragon soul’s presence.“Forget it.”Seeing that the matter was settled, Andrius did not dwell on it.After glancing around and finding nothing unusual, he steadied himself, walked outside, and began thinking about his next move.“Andy!”“Wolf King!”“Andrius!”As soon as they saw Andrius, Noir, Halle, Kate, and the others rushed to him.While Andrius was absorbing the dragon soul, Noir had filled them in on the
Whoosh...Just as Andrius sent a wisp of his divine sense to investigate, an apparition suddenly emerged from the dragon bones.It was vague and ethereal, yet exuded a powerful aura.Gradually, it took the shape of a dragon.Andrius raised his brows. He was not surprised, though, let alone afraid.He looked at the dragon apparition, who looked back at him.Soon, the dragon apparition spoke in confusion, “Young man, I smell an extraordinary aura on you.”Smell...Many thoughts flashed through Andrius’ mind.What could a dragon find extraordinary? Perhaps it was the scent of the Divine Realm or the Void Thunder Dragon. Could it be the Divine Realm phoenix?The next second, the dragon asked, “Are you a descendant of the phoenix?”Andrius casually raised his hand, and a wisp of flame appeared at his fingertips. It was the phoenix’s true flame.“I knew it!”The dragon apparition trembled slightly.Then, its enormous eyes showed a trace of sorrow.Andrius frowned, sensing some
The remaining power of Andrius’ punch slammed into the man’s head viciously, like a hammer smashing a watermelon, splattering everywhere.“Hiss—”The captured cultivators could not help but gasp.Wow.Who was this guy? He was able to kill a mid-stage Aureate Immortal in just a single punch. Was he even human?Even Halle, Kate, and the others were dumbfounded.It had not been long since they last saw him, but he had already grown to be this powerful. It was completely unbelievable.The members of Dragon Immortal Sect were shocked and terrified.He was too strong!Even the sect leader was killed in one punch. They would be serving themselves up on a silver platter.At that moment, everyone kneeled.“Please have mercy!”“Please spare us.”It was the sect leader who ordered us to do this...”They groveled repeatedly, banging their heads until they bled. Though they did not dare stop.What was begging as long as they could live?However, Andrius’ words threw them into despai
“Andrius!”“Wolf King!”The group was instantly overjoyed when they saw Andrius.They soon snapped back to their senses, though. This was the heart of Dragon Immortal Sect, and they were in the middle of a sacrificial ceremony.“Run!”“Andrius, leave now. Don’t worry about us!”“That’s right. Just avenge us later!”They knew Andrius was strong, but they did not know how strong.After all, Dragon Immortal Sect was a powerful sect, and the sect leader and Grand Elder were all gathered in the hall.No matter how powerful Andrius was, he could not face off against so many opponents.Andrius could not help but laugh.However, before he could explain, Noir said solemnly, “Don’t worry. With Andy’s current strength, wiping them out will be as easy as slaughtering chickens.”Halle, Kate, and the others were stunned.Noir was extremely confident. Could Andrius have really become a great power in the Immortal Realm?While they were still in doubt...“It’s him!”The disciples immed
“It’s not a shame. As long as we awaken the true dragon’s soul, we can get any woman we want in the future.”“But it’s hard to find one that’s as beautiful and graceful...”The disciples drooled and spoke lewdly, but their actions were swift. They quickly restrained Halle and the others.Of course, they were not the only sacrifices.There were many other cultivators, even some powerful fiends and Demon Kings.“Let’s start!”In the center of the altar, Bernard saw that everyone was in place and gave the order.“Understood!”Everyone started to move.The disciples restrained Halle and the others firmly.The 108 core and elite disciples began channeling immortal essence, feeding it into Bernard’s body.In an instant, Bernard grew into a towering figure like a giant.It was one of his techniques.As he continuously chanted, the dragon bones in the center of the altar trembled slightly.It was clear he was trying to awaken the dragon.“No, I don’t want to die.”“You beasts!
