Jasmine was truly one of a kind!Ethan felt a deep sense of powerlessness. He truly did not know how Jasmine had survived these past twenty years!One could say she was foolish - yet when her blue blood awoke, she became ruthlessly efficient.But one could also say she was clever - though did she really seem so? Naive and ignorant in matters of men and women.She had moments of innocence and charm, as well as stubbornness that made one's heart ache. And times of foolishness that made one want to scream in frustration.Now was one of those times Ethan wanted to scream.Ethan was at a loss for words. All he could do was brush her small hand away and hold her tighter as he swam faster.His manhood was already standing at attention. Ethan was no saint - the longer they stayed pressed together, the greater his urge grew.Fortunately the Blood Lake was not too long for Ethan and Jasmine. After about half an hour...Splash!In the center of the lake, Ethan finally noticed a blood-red glow up
"From now on, we're even." Ethan licked his lips, his gaze vacant.That's right, they were even now.From the moment Jasmine chose to enter the right passage, they had become even.Ethan did not resent Jasmine. In Ethan's eyes, it was normal for Jasmine to choose to enter the right passage. Ethan was not so self-important as to expect a woman he had known for half a year to sacrifice her life for him, even though Jasmine may have held some affection for him.Ultimately, it was just mutual goodwill. Ethan felt more indebted to Jasmine - along the way, she had helped him far too much. Ethan was someone who understood favors given and received. Towards enemies, he showed no mercy, but towards friends, he was not overly dramatic. Rather, he would remember them in his heart and repay them through action. In life, Ethan rarely owed anything to anyone, but with Jasmine, he owed too much.And now they were even. If they met again, they would be strangers."Heh." Ethan felt a slight tightness
"This is my heart," Azure Myst said lightly, as if speaking of an unrelated matter. His heart! This was actually the heart, Azure Dragon's heart!Ethan's face paled slightly. No matter what, he had never imagined this mountain of blood was Azure Dragon's heart. It wasn't shock at the size of the heart, but rather...Azure Dragon was dead. How could his heart survive detached from his body for millions of years?It was common knowledge that the ancient Azure Dragon had perished. The Azure Myst before him was just Azure Dragon's remnants. Since Azure Myst said this mountain of blood was his heart, then it must be the heart of the ancient Azure Dragon himself, otherwise why would he say so?Ethan stared wide-eyed at the mountain of blood, still struggling to believe it.First Azure Dragon, then ancestor, then Azure Dragon's heart - this series of unheard of bizarre events left Ethan rooted dumbly on the spot. Azure Myst paid no attention to Ethan's reaction. He gently waved a hand at t
Ethan held his breath and listened attentively."When a human Ascending to the Peak cultivator's Mind Lamp does not extinguish, it means they have achieved immortality. At this stage, they are comparable to a terrestrial immortal and can easily slaughter tens of thousands of ordinary people with a flip of the hand. However, to advance their cultivation, Ascending to the Peak cultivators need to comprehend their Imagery!""What is Imagery?" Ethan quickly asked."Imagery are the prototypes of rules. For example, the Imagery of forgetting oneself contains traces of the time rule, while the Imagery of slaughter contains remnants of the destruction rule. Comprehending one Imagery makes you an 'Imagery Level' expert. Comprehending two Imageries also makes you a high-level master of the Imagery realm. In ancient times, there were even some who comprehended three Imageries, but those who could grasp three were either peerless monsters or madmen, extremely rare even in ancient times.""Why?" E
Ethan remained silent and unmoving.Azure Myst suddenly smiled and waved his hand. Ethan's body flew uncontrollably towards the blood-colored teleportation array."Ethan, take good care of the girl who came here with you if you get the chance," Azure Myst's voice echoed from afar.Take care of Jasmine? Could Azure Myst and Jasmine have some kind of connection, for him to specially entrust this to me before leaving? Ethan was slightly stunned, but at this moment, the blood-colored teleportation array suddenly erupted with a powerful suction force, pulling Ethan directly into it.Ethan was shocked. Instantly, he felt like his whole body was being wrenched apart by the immense suction, his flesh momentarily deforming and warping. In a flash, his vision went black as he plunged into endless void."Ethan, I hope you don't disappoint me... If fate allows, let us meet again..." Azure Myst watched the direction Ethan disappeared in, his back straight, voice low and echoless.A while later, A
Ethan began asking around Hampshire County's main street while wearing a black veil conical hat, inquiring at every remotely famous pharmacy in the county to no avail.The alchemists running the pharmacies on the street could concoct some simple, low-level pills like Fasting Pills and Concentration Elixirs. But when it came to dragon blood, their expressions changed. Not only could they not refine it, they hadn't even seen it before.In a flash, over half a month passed and anxiety rose in Ethan's heart. The date when Beyond Heaven's members had to return to their independent space every two years was drawing near.Since Ethan and Maxwell were from the same batch of assassins, their return dates to the Beyond Heaven space shouldn't differ too much. So the space was the best place to meet.Otherwise, trying to find Maxwell in the vast Continent of Chaos would be searching for a needle in a haystack.Around noon, the Inn of Homecoming in Hampshire County.As always, the occupancy rate i
Chaos erupted outside the doors of the inn as San Yang stormed forward, brutishly pushing aside any who stood in his path.Resentment flickered across the faces of many, but one glance back at the insignia on San Yang's armor was enough to dispel their ire. The courtyard was filled with those who recognized him—San Yang, leader of the Martin family's occupying forces in Hampshire County.Two factions divided dominion here: the Martins and the Qins. Though the Qins had risen in recent years, the Martins still held sway, their control evidenced by the soldiers they had installed."Why is San Yang barreling in here in such a fury? He must be after someone," the onlookers murmured."No doubt. Poor fool who dared offend the Martins," another spectator chuckled grimly.Milling about the streets, the crowds swiftly swelled as word of the commotion at The Inn of Homecoming spread.The innkeeper's round face was creased with bitterness. Of all his unwanted guests, few were more troublesome tha
Activating The Eight Mystical Metamorphoses, three identical copies of Ethan materialized before the inn, each wearing the Heaven-Breaking Boxing Set with cold eyes. They charged the six guest officials in unison.With his meridians unlocked, Ethan's speed now far exceeded even mid-stage Bone Sacrifice experts. His blurring fists found their marks before his opponents could react.Crunch. Thud. Seizing one early-stage cultivator, Ethan landed two lightning-quick punches, caving in the man's chest and pulverizing his bones. Blood spewed as the cultivator tumbled into the street beside the inn, his life surely at an end.Without the Moon-Slashing Saber, the Heaven-Breaking Boxing Set made Ethan even more formidable, ideal for group combat. As a rare mid-grade spiritual weapon with special amplification properties, the quality of his new armaments could not be understated. Having the right tools for the task was crucial; mid-grade weapons like these were scarce even among late-stage Bone
