Ophelia’s expression grew serious. “Mr. Moonshade, there’s something you don’t know. Since the three Dragon Kings have been severely injured, they’ll surely retreat to Hidden Dragon Island to heal.“Hidden Dragon Island is a secret place of the Void Thunder Dragon clan, and the three Dragon Kings have turned it into their stronghold. It’s as impenetrable as a fortress, filled with traps and countless formations.“If we charge in without knowing the layout, we’ll suffer great losses, and it’s bound to be a defeat. Even worse, the three Dragon Kings might seize the chance to counterattack, which would be disastrous.”Andrius’s expression also grew solemn as he heard how serious she sounded.“Dragon Emperor, you should know very well that you must strike when your enemy is down. If we let the three Dragon Kings recover and regain their strength, they’ll surely return with a vengeance.“When that happens, it’ll be the final battle between you and the three Dragon Kings. They’ll be bet
“The many wonders inside will help you cleanse the impurities and fully merge your bloodline.”Andrius nodded. “Thank you, Dragon Emperor.”Ophelia nodded in return. “Go.”Calista also said, “Come with me, Andrius.”Then, the two of them headed toward the deepest part of the Void Thunder Dragon clan’s territory, which was also the deepest part of the mountain.Along the way, they saw a grand yet desolate scenery. As the oldest, most mysterious, and most powerful of the first batch of fiend clans, the Void Thunder Dragon was indeed extraordinary.Not long after, Calista brought Andrius to an entrance. “This is the sacred land. I can’t go in, so we’ll have to part ways here.”“Okay. Thank you.”Andrius thanked her and strode in. The entrance was only wide enough for a person to pass through, but after a few miles, the path suddenly opened up. Then, as soon as Andrius stepped inside, everything changed. A dense fog appeared out of nowhere, filling the space.Andrius also sensed
More accurately, the apparition formed by the Divine Realm wolf blood began to mutate.It was originally a strange-looking wolf. Although it differed in some details from the wolves of the mortal world and the Upper Realm, the overall form did not look much different.Now, it took the head of a Void Thunder Dragon, complete with horns, a lightning mark, and dragon claws, even though its body and tail remained that of a wolf. Overall, it had transformed into a hybrid that was neither entirely wolf nor dragon.Andrius was shocked, and amidst his surprise, the bloodline power in his body began to surge, as if urging Andrius to try it out. Thus, he tried to ignite this new dragon-wolf bloodline power.Whoosh!The next second, an identical beast appeared beside Andrius in the same form. However, it did not manifest as an apparition formed by bloodline power but took physical form!The sudden change startled Andrius, but he quickly understood that it must be a new ability he had obtain
In her mind, it would typically take hundreds or thousands of years for a cultivator to reach the level Andrius had achieved. By then, most of their friends and family would have passed away.It was rare to see someone like Andrius rise to power so quickly, and because of that conversation, Ophelia’s respect for Andrius grew even more. A cultivator who did not forget his roots was trustworthy.“Please come with me.”Then, Ophelia, Calista, and Andrius returned to the Void Secret Realm, where Ophelia handed him a pendant. “This is a special token of the Void Thunder Dragon clan. No matter where you are, whether in the Upper or the Lower Realms, all you have to do is crush it, and you’ll be able to return to this teleportation point. The final battle with the Dragon Kings is in three days. I hope you can return on time.”Andrius promised, “Don’t worry, Dragon Emperor. I will.”Ophelia nodded and started the secret technique. Not long after, a mysterious and deep light appeared at
“How arrogant!”“Kid, you will pay for your insolence!”“The last person who talked to us like that is in a grave!”“Die!”Enraged, the pursuers yelled as they charged at Andrius. The dozen people attacking together created a somewhat powerful momentum. However, it was on a completely different level compared to the battles Andrius fought in the Upper Realm, so he remained calm.“Sir, watch out!”The girl was terrified and desperately trying to warn Andrius.“It’s okay,” Andrius replied with a wave of his hand, unfazed by the small fries before him.“Die!”In the next moment, the group of men closed in on Andrius. They were so close that the girl could see the cold glint on their weapons, making her tense up. Just then, Andrius lifted his eyes and looked at them. As a hum echoed, a powerful willpower suddenly descended upon the scene. In the martial experts’ world, only Andrius’ eyes remained. He was like a god high above looking down on them, with an inherent pride and
He assumed it must be his unresolved issue—Luna’s illness.“Don’t worry, Luna. Even if I have to travel to the ends of the earth, I’ll find a way to cure you! I promise that once everything is over, we’ll live a quiet life in the mountains.” Andrius silently vowed to himself.Then, he looked away and called out to Raven, “Let’s go.”“Okay,” Raven replied with a nod. Then, the two left Sumeria and took the main road toward Amber Pass.With Andrius around, their pace was swift and steady. However, they had not been on the road for long before encountering a situation.Since returning to the mortal realm, Andrius had been using a wisp of his immortal consciousness to sense the environment around them. It was with that that he discovered a battle taking place ahead.Through his perception, he discovered that one side of the battle was none other than the most famous ‘shadow warrior’ squad from Petalonia.“Let’s go!”Andrius did not want to cause a commotion, so he masked his abil
Yes!Like many others, Lyra had been deeply captivated by Andrius, so much so that she could never see anyone else in the same light.Meeting someone so extraordinary at a young age was truly unforgettable.Thus, since Andrius left, Lyra devoted herself entirely to studying medicine, completely losing interest in the opposite sex.At that moment, she thought her life was about to end. Knowing she would never see Andrius again, she felt an overwhelming sense of despair and helplessness.There was even a hint of relief.However, Andrius had descended from the heavens to save her life.“Andrius...”Lyra instinctively threw herself into Andrius’ arms.Andrius gently patted her back to comfort her, then pushed her away and teased, “What’s wrong? Did you miss me so much that you cried?”I thought I’d never see you again,” Lyra choked.Andrius did not know how to respond.“You’re right. This will be your last meeting.”The voice of the shadow warrior captain interrupted, full of
What he found shocked him.It turned out that the fort already had several strategic arrangements, all of which were from Petalonia’s forces, targeting Noir’s defensive checkpoints as well as sentries.If a battle were to break out, these checkpoints and sentries would be cleared immediately.At that point, it would be a question of whether Amber Pass could be defended when the main army attacked.Of course, that was assuming Andrius was not around.The problem was that the decisive battle with the three Dragon Kings was in three days. Andrius, being the pillar of strength, had to return to participate.Thus, he had to end this battle by then.Andrius instructed Raven, “Go back and tell your father to reorganize the defense forces. Try to avoid using the current positions. One more thing—do it quietly without attracting attention.”Raven was confused but trusted Andrius, agreeing, “Okay. I’ll tell him as soon as I get back.”Back at the central military tent, Raven immediately
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!
