As a vital location of the Medicine Sect, it was guarded vigilantly all day and night regardless of season, 365 days a year.A five-person patrol team had just passed by the main entrance when a shadow slipped past them from behind and silently opened the door.The entire process was incredibly stealthy, and no noise was made.“Found it!”The figure moved inside the treasure repository before finally stopping at a certain spot. He picked up something heavily guarded and tucked it away.Then, he slipped out while remaining hidden from the patrol team’s view.The Medicine Sect were completely unaware of this.In the main hall, an old man and a young woman sat across from each other, drinking tea.The old man had a ruddy complexion and was full of vitality. His eyes showed no signs of the cloudiness of old age. Instead, they were bright, clearly belonging to a highly accomplished martial arts cultivator.He was the sect master of the Medicine Sect, Wade Klein!Sitting across fro
Swoosh...Kate was one step later, but she also saw the empty wooden box.At that moment, the grandfather and granddaughter’s faces turned ashen.The treasure map was immensely important and was the most heavily guarded treasure of the Medicine Sect.Now, it had been stolen!“Find it!” Wade spoke through gritted teeth, his tone extremely cold. “Use all our resources to investigate immediately. I want to know who dares to steal the treasure map of the Medicine Sect!”“Yes, sir!”The guard-in-charge immediately went to carry out the order.After giving the instructions, Wade’s expression remained unchanged for a long time. He did not say a word and led Kate back toward the main hall.“Grandpa...” Kate’s bright eyes flickered. “Someone who could secretly steal the treasure map under the noses of so many guards must possess extremely high skills and be very familiar with the ins and outs of the Medicine Sect.”Wade nodded slightly, indicating for her to continue.“Moreover, this
Old Hagstorm did not explain but casually produced a treasure map. It was the same one that had gone missing from the Medicine Sect’s treasure repository!It turned out that the person who had stolen the treasure map was Old Hagstorm himself!“I’ve already sent invitations to the heads of the Sheppards, the Fullers, and the Anders in Kate Klein’s name. We’ll meet at Nimbus Hotel in Kiyoto.“The family heads of the three great families will be waiting for you there. Take four elders from the Dragon Manor. They should be enough.”The heads of the three great families were all experts in the late stage of Martial Emperor.Although the four Dragon Manor elders were only late-stage Martial Kings, their prowess when combined in battle was no weaker than the family heads.Luna asked worriedly, “Master, what exactly am I supposed to do?”Old Hagstorm leaned close to Luna’s ear to whisper a few words.Luna’s eyes instantly lit up....Outside the luxurious private room on the top floo
“The Medicine Sect?”Damian, Ronald, and Tyrell exchanged looks, their faces showing clear confusion. They had been invited here by the Dragon Manor.Why was the Medicine Sect suddenly involved?However, the person in front of them was indeed Kate Klein...Damian asked with a frown, “Ms. Klein, does the Dragon Manor belong to the Medicine Sect?”Luna said with a calm smile, “Indeed.”At those words, the three men narrowed their eyes.The Medicine Sect was already a significant force, but they secretly nurtured an organization like the Dragon Manor.Putting everything else aside, just the four late-stage Martial Kings and seven Martial Lords that appeared earlier naturally made them take notice.“Where’s the Medicine Sect Master?” Tyrell looked at Luna and said in a low voice, “We’re the heads of the ancient martial families, but they sent a young girl like you to negotiate with us. Isn’t that a bit disrespectful?”Luna said calmly, “Master Anders, I am the Maiden of the Medic
Luna’s gaze swept over the constantly changing expressions of the three men as if she had everything under control. She smiled and said confidently, “Now, I’ll leave this to you three.“After you’ve made up your minds, come to Mount Cura to find me, and we’ll go to the Swallows together.”With that, Luna left Nimbus Hotel with the four elders and seven Dragon Generals.In the room, Damian, Ronald, and Tyrell looked at each other, but no one spoke.Outside the hotel, Luna got into an unlicensed van. Old Hagstorm was seated in the passenger seat.Luna reported, “Master, I’ve handed the treasure map over to the three family heads and explained our intentions. They were all very hesitant.”“It’s natural that they’re hesitant.” Old Hagstorm grinned and said, “The Swallows have led them for a long time. Wanting them to go against the Swallows suddenly must be quite painful for them.”Luna asked, “Then, what should we do next?”“Nothing. At a time like this, the more we say, the more
In the Swallow family’s residence, the elder kept advising Norvin, “Sir, having Andrius in our possession will eventually arouse the suspicions of the three major families. I think it’s better to interrogate him as soon as possible to find out where the map is!”“You’re right.” A glint flashed in Norvin’s eyes as he snorted. “I’ll personally meet Andrius today and see how stubborn he is.”After saying that, the two of them headed toward the courtyard where Andrius was being held.A servant suddenly rushed over and said, “Sir! The Medicine Sect Master and the heads of the Sheppard, Fuller, and Ander families have arrived outside the residence with a large number of people!”“What?”Norvin’s expression instantly darkened upon hearing the words. He exchanged a glance with the elder and they saw the displeasure in each other’s faces. “Lead the way!”Soon after, the two arrived in the Swallow family’s main hall which was already packed with people in every direction, all of them exper
The three of them spoke in support of Wade, a trace of a threat in their words.Yes, the three great families and the Medicine Sect’s elites had all come today.If Norvin remained stubborn, they might resort to force which would only further damage their relationships and weaken their positions.“Bring Andrius Moonshade out.”Seeing that the situation had reached this point, Norvin knew that there was no point in talking and ordered with a stern face.The elder immediately turned and left.When he returned, there was another person behind him. He was pale and listless.It was none other than the central figure of this incident, Andrius Moonshade.Norvin did not hand Andrius over directly but suddenly appeared in front of him and fed him a pill.“Andrius Moonshade, this poison is called the ‘Hundred Day Soul Scattering Pill’. Without an antidote, you’ll die a gruesome death within a hundred days. Your internal organs will rupture, and blood will pour out of your orifices. It’s
In the remote outskirts, at a secret path leading away from Kiyoto.“Luna...” Old Hagstorm glanced at Luna and said, “The people from the Medicine Sect have already taken action and stationed at various entrances to Kiyoto, so this is the only way I can send you off.”Luna did not want to leave yet. She had not seen Andrius return safely.“Master, how is Andrius now? I want to see him...” Her tone was sincere and filled with deep concern.“You don’t have to worry about Andrius.” Old Hagstorm looked at Luna’s beautiful and worried face and knew that it was because of Andrius, so he reassured her, “He will be absolutely safe until the Kleins’ treasure is found.“Besides, to the four major families and even the Medicine Sect, he’s troublesome.“No matter whose hands he’s in, it will arouse suspicion from the other four forces, but they can’t afford to let him die. If he dies, his secret dies with him, and the others will surely unite against them.“That’s why you don’t have to worr
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!
