"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
Though Blood Demon Technique had yet to advance since opening his meridians, the blood mists seemed denser and more expansive, enveloping the five Martin experts within dozens of yards."What sorcery is this?" The brow-scarred cultivator sensed a faint stagnation in his inner force, hampering his energy circulation. The effect was subtle, but concerning.In that moment, Terry Martin also dove from the void straight for Ethan, as Kenneth Martin split off, swooping down with a twisted grin. Amanda immediately fled far from the coming battle, watching anxiously from a rooftop hundreds of yards away."Villain! There's nowhere for you to run now!" she shrieked vengefully. In a blink, Ethan felt a fierce, freezing blade energy cleaving toward his back as Terry closed the hundred-yard gap between them.With his clones depleted for now, facing seven Bone Sacrifice masters alone weighed heavily on Ethan. He hesitated no longer, drawing out the Azure Dragon Shard.Whoosh. Twisting aside, Ethan
Terry took flight, rocketing hundreds of yards into the sky at top speed as he desperately fled the scene.Still, countless eyes below watched in shock, but Terry couldn't afford to care. Though Ethan was merely at the peak of Meridian Training, something about him chilled Terry to the core.It wasn't just his astounding recovery abilities or speed, but those ominous black bottles Ethan had revealed at the end. Terry couldn't be certain if he had more, and refused to take the risk!"The Martin elder himself has fled...""Just who is this man to force even Terry into retreat?""With one strike, an assassin's skills prove formidable indeed. No telling which organization he hails from..."Hovering invisibly overhead, Lawrence observed the battle with interest. "Truly powerful to overwhelm even that old crone Terry..."On a distant rooftop, Amanda's face was ghostly pale, mind buzzing in shock. In a daze, she suddenly came to her senses—with a shriek, the disheveled woman fled barefoot in
