Lord Came Back From The Battlefield

Chapter 1976: Tempering the Bloodline



In Billy’s mind, there were still two streams of information that had not been accessed.

One was the method to break the barrier of the Star Domain Chasm, and the other was the technique left by the Ravenwood Ancestor for tempering his bloodline.

He wasn’t in a hurry to break the barrier since he had no immediate plans to venture into the mid-level star domain.

He quickly accessed the method for tempering his bloodline.

After about a quarter of an hour, Billy’s eyes lit up. This tempering method was clearly an upgraded version of the Vein Building Technique, with core content quite similar.

After digesting it further, Billy began to channel his bloodline power to start training.NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.

As expected, it didn’t take long for his bloodline to become agitated, and the intensity kept increasing. The pain spread throughout his body once again.

However, thanks to his previous experience with the Vein Building Technique and Kymani Vasquez’s help in tempering his bloodline, he had a preliminary grasp of how to alleviate this pain.

This time, it wasn’t as excruciating as before.

An hour later, his bloodline felt like it was boiling, as if it was about to burst out of his body. Billy quickly used the Heart Sutra of the Azure Void to channel his bloodline.

But he had clearly underestimated the difficulty of this bloodline tempering. The past hour was just the beginning.

After a while, the feeling of blood flowing backward and the sensation of being gnawed by thousands of ants reappeared, even more intense than before.

At this moment, Billy was drenched in sweat, veins bulging on his forehead, eyes bloodshot, face contorted, and body trembling uncontrollably.

“Billy, how are you? If you can’t take it, just stop,” Purple Spirit’s voice echoed in his mind.

“I’m fine, I can hold on a bit longer!” Billy gritted his teeth.

“Do you want me to help you?” Purple Spirit asked again.

“No need!” Billy replied once more. “Tempering the bloodline is something I must do myself. If you intervene, the effect will be greatly diminished.”

“Alright!” Purple Spirit pouted. “Couldn’t your Ancestor come up with an easier method? Must he make it so torturous just to prove a point?”

Billy’s mouth twitched slightly.

Time flew by quickly, and several hours passed in the blink of an eye. The veins on Billy’s body had swollen more than twice their size, looking like they might burst at any moment.

Moreover, the pain continued to escalate, seemingly without end.

After a while, an immense force exploded within Billy’s body, crashing heavily against his meridians.

Under such a domineering impact, Billy could no longer hold on. His eyes rolled back, and he passed out.

At the moment he collapsed, a cloud of blood-colored mist erupted from his body, instantly filling the entire valley.

Astonishingly, after about two minutes, the blood-colored mist began to churn rapidly, causing turbulence throughout the valley.

The next moment, the blood-colored mist condensed into a faintly visible blood-colored dragon that soared into the sky. After letting out a long roar like a living creature, it dove back down.

Immediately afterward, the blood-colored dragon plunged straight into Billy’s head and merged into his body.

Then, the valley returned to its previous calm state. The blood-colored mist vanished without a trace. Apart from Billy lying on the stone slab, it was as if nothing had happened.

“Hmm?”

From the surrounding forest came a sound of surprise.

“What happened?” A man’s voice asked after a while.

“Not sure!” Someone responded.

“The kid seems to have passed out. Should we go check?” A woman suggested.

“Let’s go. If he’s really unconscious, let’s take his storage ring. It must contain the method to break that barrier.” The first man spoke again.

After some discussion, seven or eight men and women approached. They observed Billy’s condition and confirmed that he was indeed unconscious.

“This kid seems tricky. Should we kill him first before taking his storage ring? Otherwise, he could be a problem when he wakes up,” one man suggested.

“Then what are we waiting for? Do it!” Another man responded and raised his hand to strike Billy’s head.

At that moment, an overwhelming aura exploded from Billy’s body and rapidly spread outward.

The seven or eight men and women were thrown back before they could react. They landed heavily hundreds of meters away, lifeless.

To their dying breath, they couldn’t understand how an unconscious person could take their lives.

It was naturally Purple Spirit who acted!

Because Billy had instructed her not to reveal herself easily, she had never left his body.

The highest cultivation level among those people was only mid-Perceiving Dao Realm. To kill them instantly didn’t require her to show herself.

Seeing this, sounds of gasping came from both sides of the forest surrounding the valley. Faces were filled with shock and fear.

Everyone secretly felt fortunate that they hadn’t been the first to act; otherwise, they would be dead now.

Unconscious Billy had no idea what was happening outside.

Strictly speaking, he wasn’t truly unconscious because his consciousness was in an unknown space at that moment.

The entire space was scorching hot, filled with a strong smell of blood. Blood-colored mist surrounded him like he was walking in a sea of blood.

The environment around him was indistinguishable and seemed endless. Billy could only walk aimlessly forward.

Along the way, there was nothing but blood-colored mist and no other abnormalities.

He didn’t know how long he walked before a large patch of blood-red light appeared in the sky ahead, illuminating several levels of void space.

At the same time, a thunderous roar reached Billy’s ears, deafening him.

He also felt a violent tremor under his feet and saw the void shaking as if it were about to collapse. The commotion was far greater than an earthquake.

Next, a dragon’s roar came from ahead, accompanied by a beast’s growl.

Before Billy could fully react, another change occurred in the bright sky ahead.

A giant blood-colored dragon, thousands of meters long, soared into the sky with lightning coiling around its body. The void churned violently.

At the same time, an ancient beast with nine heads also leaped into the air.

Billy swore he had never seen such a beast before. Each head was neither entirely human nor completely beast-like but a combination of both.

The nine-headed beast’s massive body was no less impressive than the blood-colored dragon’s-a sight to behold.

The dragon and beast were clearly engaged in battle, causing the earlier commotion.
