Isaac couldn’t believe his eyes. The young woman whose every movement and smile had captured the hearts of the men around her was now skin and bones, and her eyes had lost their light. Her features were still as beautiful as before, but there was a horrific scar on her face. Isaac frowned. His voice was shaky as he asked, “Ally, w—what happened to you?”“W—who are you?” Allegra’s voice was shrill, and she looked agitated.“Me? I’m Isaac, your husband!” He hadn’t expected her to react like this.Chuck Gill got to his feet and roared, “You’re a fucking liar! Allegra’s husband died seven years ago. He’s a murderer who was sentenced to death! Do you even know where you are, you asshole? How dare you come here and beat me up!” He pulled his phone out.Isaac glared at him, his eyes turning red with rage. His murderous intent filled the washroom, making Chuck feel like he was suffocating. He staggered backward in fright and pointed at Isaac, stammering, “Y—you… what are you doing? I-I’m
Isaac walked in. He’d followed Allegra and Isabella back stealthily, careful that they wouldn’t notice him. Only when he heard Allegra’s cry did he hurry up, and he was surprised to hear Madam Fran’s audacious demand.“You’ve got guts, you asshole; I’ll give you that. I’ve been here for ten years now, and you’re the first person who’s had the balls to lay a finger on me.” Madam Fran pointed at him, looking infuriated.Allegra shielded Isabella and backed up against the wall. She knew Madam Fran was infamous for being a bully because her husband was a well-known gangster in these parts.Isaac silently walked toward Allegra and stood before her, staring down Madam Fran and the ruffians. He said coldly, “You have ten seconds to get out of my sight, or I’ll make you regret stepping foot in here.”Allegra looked at him with shock and disbelief.Madam Fran was truly infuriated now. She waved a hand and roared, “Get him! Beat him to a pulp!”Two of the four ruffians whipped out metal pi
Andrew came to a stop after running a few yards. He muttered to himself, “That good-for-nothing Isaac died long ago. This guy just looks like him; there’s no way they’re the same people.” He turned around and looked at Isaac, ignoring Allegra and Isabella. “Who are you? Do you even know where you are right now?”“Andrew, don’t tell me I have to report to you when returning to my own home.” Isaac narrowed his eyes and took a few steps forward.At this moment, a coquettish voice rang out from upstairs. “Who’s causing such a ruckus downstairs? Is it that widow and her daughter? How rude of them to make so much noise when coming to someone else’s home.”A young woman in a pink spaghetti-strap dress came downstairs, looking disdainful. She had a full face of makeup on, and her dress was sexy. When she got downstairs, she merely glanced at Isaac before focusing on Allegra and Isabella. Then, she shrieked, “Oh, my God! I can’t believe you stepped into the house in such filthy shoes!”She
Seven years back, Riverview was already the third most expensive neighborhood in Cloud City. The security here was one of the best in Cloud City, thanks to the neighborhood’s developer—the Merck family.The security guards smiled menacingly and pulled out their batons. One of them pointed at Isaac and said coldly, “You have five seconds to apologize to Madam Gould and Mr. Booth, brat. Otherwise, I’ll ensure you leave this place in a body bag.”“You? I wouldn’t be so confident.” Isaac flipped them off.Andrew laughed derisively. “Hey, asshole, this neighborhood belongs to the Merck family. Anyone who dares to cause a ruckus here will spend at least half a year in the hospital. If you get on your knees and apologize to me, I’ll consider forgiving you.”At this, the security guards shared a look, then roared and rushed toward Isaac with their batons raised. Andrew looked excited. He wanted to see Isaac grovel at his feet and beg for mercy. After all, he’d never seen anyone who’d dared
No one knew how much pain and suffering Allegra had been through the past seven years. Ever since the man she loved deeply had been sentenced to death, her life had taken a turn for the worse. Isaac’s words made her recall everything she’d gone through.“Mom, are you okay? Mom!” Andrew ran over to Margaret and helped her up. Blood was trickling from her nose and mouth, and her hair was mussed up. Her face was also swollen. She wept while pointing at Isaac and Allegra, shrieking furiously, “How dare you hit me! I won’t let you off the hook!”Isaac looked at her, his eyes red with fury. Then, he rushed at her, making her heart race as she trembled with fear. Suddenly, she felt cold all over. In just a few steps, Isaac stood before her, his hand tightening around her throat. It immediately cut off her air supply, and her eyes bulged in horror.“Not only do I have the nerve to lay a hand on you, but I also have the guts to kill you.” Isaac looked at her, his face void of emotion. At thi
Allegra’s lips twitched at his words, and she bit them to hide her shock. The receptionist was taken aback, thinking that she’d heard him wrong. “D—do you want Mr. C—Crowe to come to see you? May I know if you have an appointment with him?” Her attitude suddenly became extremely respectful. She thought Isaac was some big shot. After all, he dared to refer to Mr. Crowe by name and demand that he come to see him.“I’m sorry, but we don’t have an appointment. Is Mr. Crowe around?” Allegra said when she saw Isaac didn’t intend to respond.The receptionist was surprised by the difference between them. Then, she rolled her eyes and smiled mockingly at them, saying, “If you want to see Mr. Crowe, you must make an appointment a week in advance. And before you do that, you need to get a number at the front desk. The fee’s 15,000 dollars and you need to pay first.”Beefy Bob frowned and looked at Isaac, who said calmly, “Just tell him that Isaac Garten wants to see him. Money's not an issue a
George burst into laughter. “Damn, you’re an audacious one. Beacon Clinic has been in operation for over a decade, and our clients are bigwigs in business and politics. I dare you to break even a single vase here. If you do, I’ll make sure you spend the rest of your life in prison.”Seeing that things were getting out of hand, Allegra turned to Isaac with a frown. “Stop talking already. Let’s just go.” Then, she said to George, “Mr. Crowe, I’m so sorry about this. I don’t want you to treat me anymore, so please don’t be mad.” She bowed to him.George scoffed and gave her a sideways look. “At least you have some common—”“Trash this place!” Isaac cut him off. Beefy Bob immediately sprang into action, lunging at a large antique vase. He lifted it up easily and dropped it on the floor, shattering it. George was dumbfounded—the vase was worth more than a million dollars.Beefy Bob didn’t stop there, though. He grabbed a heavy wooden chair and smashed it on the floor, breaking it into p
George’s sneer became more pronounced. “I can’t believe the balls on you. Just wait. Let’s see whether you’ll still have the nerve to cause trouble at Beacon Clinic once you’ve been taught a lesson.”Isaac smiled. With his hands behind his back, he leisurely walked back over to the remaining sofa and sat down while giving Beefy Bob a look. The latter immediately knew what he wanted and pulled his phone out to make a call.Beacon Clinic had many employees—probably more than 20 doctors and nurses. None of them dared to utter a word at the sight of the trashed lobby. Especially the receptionist that had spoken to Isaac and Allegra upon their arrival. Her back was drenched with cold sweat, and she hunkered down in a corner, feeling terrified. Countless government officials and business bigwigs were George’s patients, yet Isaac didn’t seem to be bothered by it.The sirens stopped in front of Beacon Clinic, and four or five uniformed officials hurried in, looking stern. The one in the lea
Isaac introduced."I've never heard of such a realm before, and I'm eager to go in and see it!" Mixandrei widened her beautiful eyes in surprise and exclaimed excitedly.After speaking, she reached out and touched the boundaries of that realm.But, she was pushed back as her spirit was unable to get close."Only a portion of our spirit can enter the soul artifact, and even after being enhanced by it, we're not strong enough to go inside. We might need to put all our spirits into the soul artifact, but if we do that, our bodies in the real realm would be motionless, like corpses." Isaac speculated."So what? We can lie in the sarcophagus, and with the protection of the sarcophagus and the secret chamber, our true form will definitely be safe. Then our spirit enters the artifact," Mixandrei proposed."Great idea, let's do it this way!" Isaac nodded in agreement.At that moment, he felt that the coffin yard was remarkable because its defensive power was off the charts.Dreamlerq's
"If you really feel so uneasy, how about I keep you company tonight?" Isaac smiled."Ah? You naughty!" Mixandrei's face turned red as she playfully scolded.Isaac then spent a few relaxing months more with his family.During that period, even someone like Mixandrei, who used to be completely immersed in cultivation, experienced a change in mindset.She realized that those were the truly carefree days.What was the purpose of the effort put into cultivation?Wasn't it all for the freedom they craved?Another six months passed.Skylar's body had finally fully recovered to her peak.Allegra, Evie, and the children were sent back to the lower realm by Isaac.Isaac and Mixandrei could finally begin their journey to explore that mysterious realm."Isaac, I want to... have a child with you." That night, Skylar lay in Isaac's embrace and spoke softly with a hint of shyness."Huh? Why do you think of that?" Isaac asked with interest."Because... I want to keep up with you, at least
"When you were unconscious, I managed to conquer the other two kingdoms. Currently, the Boltzyn Dynasty is still under the rule of several generals from our kingdom. I haven't yet decided who will serve as the emperor there. Elon's eldest son, Ergon, is in charge of the Seraphym Dynasty with Connor and Zaid assisting as Regents. "Once Ergon is ready to take full control, the authority of the Regents will be withdrawn." Isaac pushed Skylar along while explaining and giving an overview of the events that had taken place in the Upper Martial Realm over the past few years.Skylar was quite shocked after hearing that Isaac took down the Seraphym Dynasty and Boltzyn Dynasty.Wasn't it said that it was a turbulent time with powerful figures emerging everywhere, making it unwise to do something so flashy?She had many overwhelming feelings and a lot of questions she wanted to ask, but because of her physical condition, she couldn’t speak up.That made her feel a bit puzzled.Spending ti
"She's recovering, although it might take a while for her to wake up. The important thing is that she survived. I was the one who killed her, and I've always felt guilty about it. Now that she can live again, that's the best outcome." Drea looked at Isaac holding Skylar in his arms. His dry, wrinkled face showed a hint of joy, and he spoke."Haha, it's actually not your fault because, at that time, your body was controlled by an evil corpse spirit. You were essentially another being." Isaac, who was in high spirits, laughed heartily.In a sense, Drea could be considered a corpse spirit too, but he was aligned with him and obeyed his commands, essentially a "righteous" or "good" corpse spirit.It was no longer the purely malevolent corpse spirit it once was.While they both inhabited the same body, their souls were fundamentally different."I'm really curious about that mysterious realm Dreamlerq mentioned. What exactly is it?" Mixandrei asked curiously.That was a secret known
How strong was Dreamlerq?No wonder that Freddie and Esther called him the top prodigy ever since!"Skylar!" Isaac lifted Skylar from the coffin yard and channeled divine energy into her body.Divine energy had miraculous power and of course, the key was that Skylar’s soul was intact and the physical damage to the body wasn’t too severe.The effects of divine energy began to show.Isaac felt a slight movement of Skylar's heart.Then, with thumping sounds, it began to pulsate."It works! It really works!" Isaac was overjoyed.He finally managed to revive Skylar. He truly didn't know what he could do next if it didn't work."She needs a long time to recover, so let her stay here and continue absorbing divine energy. It looks like this Immortal Realm portal will take a few minutes to close," Mixandrei said.Although Skylar had her heart beating, it took some time for a full recovery.Isaac waited patiently.Additionally, he took out the Soul Purifying Flask and coffin, intendi
As someone at the advanced stage of the Divine Sovereign Phase, she could only control a small portion of the principle.However, this powerful being seemed capable of commanding all of it!"Is this…an immortal?" She murmured to herself in awe. The surrounding space shifted, and without anyone realizing it, they had arrived at the immortal tomb. This place was normally inaccessible unless actively opened. However, it had been breached effortlessly under Dreamlerq's influence.The sheer capability was astonishing. "It's such a pity…Sir Freddie passed away too soon. If he were still alive now, just a breath of divine energy or entering the immortal realm would have granted him eternal life…"Isaac's thought left him feeling a sense of regret."Freddie's lifespan had already reached its limits. Even if he inhaled divine energy, he couldn't have been able to live much longer.""As for helping him enter the immortal realm, that's beyond my ability. It would have involved treme
"You're clearly far away in the Immortal realm," Isaac expressed his amazement through his consciousness. "To my knowledge, you're in great need of divine energy right now. With the soul artifact, you'll be able to obtain it," Dreamlerq responded. A spark of joy lit up in Isaac's heart. The soul artifact could help him to acquire divine energy. But how? As the artifact's owner, Isaac had a general understanding of its functions. However, there wasn't an option to open the Immoral Realm. He wasn't at the peak of the Sacrificial Phase, so how could he pierce the Immoral Realm's barrier and create a small opening?"I know what you're wondering. Now that you have my soul artifact, you can easily communicate with me. From my end in the Immortal Realm, I can create a small opening for you to draw in divine energy. Just remember to use the soul artifact to contain the energy, it can hold as much as you're able to capture." Dreamlerq seemed to have guessed Issac's confusion and explai
The colossal object radiated a faint white glow, its outer surface surrounded by continually emerging vapors, resembling boiling dry ice. The soul artifact Drea had mentioned resided within those vapors. "This is the soul artifact you spoke of?" Isaac asked in astonishment. He stepped closer and attempted to touch the vapors. Despite appearing gaseous, it was, in reality, composed of souls; not the vengeful spirits found in the ten thousand resentful bones, but wisps of theorems. Indeed, these soul-related theorems continuously emerged around the artifact. "Did Dreamlerq's principle involve souls?" Isaac asked. "Yes, my true form cultivated the Principle of Souls. This artifact is something he created himself. Through it, you can reach a world beyond anything you could imagine," Drea responded. "A world beyond imagination?" Isaac narrowed his eyes. Those were the exact words Dreamlerq had spoken to him in his dream. Now, it seemed that the enormous artifact was the
Everything, absolutely everything, originated from Chaos. That was to say, all things, whether living or non-living, whether the laws governing the universe or any tangible objects originated from Chaos. It was exactly where they were right now!"Oh my god, I suddenly feel like I'm incredibly close to principles of the void and the principles of internal demons. I can even manipulate them with ease!"Isaac was astonished by his discovery. He had only barely grasped two principles, the principles of the void and the principles of the internal demons. Yet here, he felt an intimate connection with all principles, enabling him to understand and harness them more effectively. "I feel the same way. I cultivate the Principle of Transcendence, and it feels incredibly close as well," Mixandrei said in agreement. As the two conversed, Drea stepped out of the coffin yard, his body appearing outside. "Don't come out! Your physical bodies have yet to reach the sacrificial phase and ca
