Chapter 228: The World in the Palm, Innate Awakener (II)

Bart's expression stiffened, and he turned around abruptly, only to see a young man in Daoist robes about a hundred meters away, looking at him in astonishment. At the same time, remnants of aura lingered around the young man, indicating he was at the middle stage of the Fifth Heavenly Realm.

Suddenly, a strong killing intent surfaced on Bart's face as he said in a low voice, "Didn't expect to encounter a Federation lackey right after coming out of the passage. Looks like luck is on my side."

As he spoke, Bart couldn't help but lick his lips, his expression becoming somewhat ferocious. If he could suck dry and refine the essence within this young man's flesh, not only would his injuries mostly recover, but he could also immediately elevate his cultivation to the peak of the Fifth Heavenly Realm.

The spacial cuts may have suppressed his cultivation, but he was still an expert at the late stage of the Sixth Heavenly Realm, with a physical body to match. Coupled with his powerful will and martial realm, his combat power was still in the beginning stage of the Sixth Realm, more than enough to overpower these sheltered geniuses.

There was no possible way for him to lose here.

Li Daoyi narrowed his eyes. "Looks like you're planning to kill me?"

Bart sneered coldly. "No shit. This is Federation territory, after all. Letting you go would only attract a large number of lackeys. So, prepare to die."

A brilliant blood-like light surged from Bart's body, burning like flames. The crimson light dyed the surrounding world red, and with an explosive burst of power, he transformed directly into a nine-headed blood python.

Hiss!

The blood python, over twenty meters long and lithe like a dragon, emanated a fierce and violent aura, resembling a true savage beast from the wilderness.

Li Daoyi's eyes showed surprise. "You're confident because you've infused your will into your true power." As he spoke, he reached out his right hand and made a slight grabbing motion toward the sky.

Boom!

In an instant, a dazzling thunderbolt descended from the sky.

The speed of lightning was unparalleled, instantly striking the roaring blood python. The scorching and violent power directly shattered the blood python in half at its waist.

Splurt!

Bart roughly landed several dozen meters away, coughing up blood. His body was pale, his aura weakened further, and he sported a look of horror.

"How is this possible? You can actually summon natural thunderbolts!?"

Suddenly, Bart remembered something, and his body couldn't help but tremble. "Y-You're an Innate Awakener!?"

Buzz!

Under the violent and domineering power of the thunderbolt, the spatial passage trembled, and the figure that had just appeared from the depths instantly shattered and disappeared.

However, the purple light on the opposite side surged, and energy capable of stabilizing the spatial passage wildly poured in. At the same time, a terrifying will faintly emerged, spreading along the channel, as if wanting to cross over to see what was happening on the other side.

Li Daoyi's expression changed slightly. "A king's will? There's a big shot on the other side of the passage, a king-level powerhouse. And it's not just an ordinary king!

"No, I'm not good at fighting, I prefer cultivation. I'll leave this kind of thing to the old man."

Seeing that he couldn't destroy the passage, lightning flashed around Li Daoyi's body, and in an instant, he shot out like a winding blue thunderbolt.

In just a blink of an eye, Li Daoyi appeared hundreds of meters away, reaching the mountainside in just a few breaths, before flipping his hand to take out his phone from the Sumeru Bracelet.

"No signal. The thunderstorm’s still too strong here."

As he spoke, lightning danced around his body once again. He shot out once more, running hundreds of kilometers away from the thundercloud-covered peak, until....

"I finally have a signal." As he spoke, he dialed a number.

As soon as someone answered on the other end, Li Daoyi immediately shouted, "Old man, it's bad! I encountered someone from the Blood Cult deep in the Leiyun Mountains. He came out of a spatial passage, and there's a king-level figure on the other side keeping it open."

"What? A king opening a passage! Where are their coordinates?"

"I don't know, but those guys are tough, I can't beat them."

"Alright, I got it, come back first."

Soon, news about the passage in the depths of the northern mutated beast battlefield, and the unfamiliar king sneaking through with some demon cultists, reached the Federation’s headquarters.

Within minutes, major nations with overlapping spaces around the world received the relevant information, including the military base in the southern mutated beast battlefield. If they could open a passage in the northern battlefield, they could do the same in other overlapping spaces, so they had to be prepared.

There was less of a concern for the rest of the world outside of those spaces. With the surveillance of the global satellite network, if they dared to open a passage anywhere else, they would be discovered immediately. The human race had made sure that the defense of their rear was tight.

Meanwhile, deep in the Yunwu Mountain Range at dusk, one of the Bailong teachers had finally found Qin Tianhu’s body after a day and night of searching. Surrounding it were many mutated beast corpses, all showing signs of poisoning.

When the teacher approached Qin Tianhu, he immediately noticed the wound on his chest and the poisonous energy emanating from him, and his expression changed slightly. "The Divine Rotting Art of the Shadow Cult? How is this possible? Why would there be someone from the demon cults here!?"
