Chapter 70: Chapter 70: Explosive Thoughts - 1

Inside the seventh peak of Jade White Mountain, Sam sat in a lotus position, floating in the air.

Before him, three scrolls hovered, exuding various Dao symbols and energy signatures that formed a swirling whirlpool around him.

The cave's top was open, revealing the blue sky.

The clash of Dao patterns in the whirlpool created a mesmerizing spectacle, spiraling out of the cave and blending with the white snow-covered mountain, creating a captivating view.

With each inhale and exhale, wisp-like Dao symbols transformed into streaks of light that entered Sam's eyes.

His posture remained straight, his face calm, and his focus unwaveringly set on the sage techniques. While immersed in gaining insights, Sam remained oblivious to the events around him.

Unbeknownst to him, notable figures from various forces, such as King Shun, Duncan Hailstorm, Nicholas Scarlett, and Victoria Flareheart, had gathered for an audience at the Hailstorm Clan.

As each Dao symbol entered his eyes, the techniques unfolded in his mind like an open book.

He learned how to invoke them, the required steps, energy consumption, potential strength, and enhancement to his abilities.

In his mind, vivid illusions played out—his own figure performing the sage techniques. With each round of comprehension, the scenes became more refined.

The cycle repeated thousands of times for each technique, gradually bringing them to complete form.

As his mastery approached perfection, faint ripples of energy surged from his body, growing stronger with each passing moment.

As Sam's mastery over the techniques neared perfection, his body effortlessly ascended, emerging above the seventh peak of Jade White Mountain through the cave hole. Unaware of his elevated position, his eyes remained closed in deep concentration.

A swirling phenomenon unfolded around him as an extraordinary amount of Dao patterns, generated by the three Sage-grade techniques, congregated at his center. S~eaʀᴄh the nôvel_Fire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

The small ripples produced grew increasingly potent, creating a series of escalating energy surges.

In a climactic moment, the ripples from the three techniques clashed, resulting in a massive explosion-like sound that reverberated throughout the ancestral manor's area.

BOOM!

The resounding explosion caught the attention of Adriana Hailstorm, who was engrossed in a conversation with King Shun. Reacting swiftly, she appeared at the foot of the seventh peak, drawn by the unexpected disturbance.

Following Adriana, several figures emerged, including her family, King Shun and his family, Duncan Hailstorm and his family, Nicholas Scarlett, and Victoria Flareheart. Lenora and Amelia were also among the group.

Nicholas Scarlett was the first to raise a question. "Who is this kid? To have a mountain peak for himself, he must be someone of great importance."

Adriana proudly declared, "He is the one blessed by the heavenly dao, the one I chose as my clan's true heir, the one I am proud to call my grandson."

King Shun, catching on, remarked, 'So he is the one who awakened the Mystic VoidHeart Harmonic physique, ranked first among the three thousand known physiques... and that crimson hair, could it be...?'

He narrowed his eyes at Victoria Flareheart, the lady with crimson hair, who appeared to be in her late twenties and was gazing at Sam with starry eyes.

'Interesting. Two celestial dragon bloodlines, a supreme physique, with two of the strongest clans backing him... he is destined to become a prominent figure in the future,' King Shun thought to himself.

His eyes shifted towards his daughter, Yuna, who was also observing Sam with excitement.

'If I can betroth my daughter to him, her future will be bright and secured. With that, I will also gain the support of two prominent clans in the Azure Dragon continent,' King Shun smiled internally, strategizing like a shrewd merchant about to make a profitable deal.

King Shun understood from the circumstances that Sam was an important figure for the Hailstorm and Flareheart clans.

Adriana wouldn't have given him the seventh peak of Jade White Mountain, and Victoria Flareheart wouldn't have taken the trouble to come here, especially considering Sam's unique crimson hair, a trait shared by every dragon with the Crimson Inferno bloodline.

These were not hunches but factual observations.

Unaware of her father's thoughts, Yuna watched Sam with fascination, thinking, 'He is here... and he has become more handsome than the last time I saw him.'

'Why do I feel a sense of longing when I gaze at him?' she wondered.

Yuna, much like Amelia and Lenora, experienced the Sennyu resonance without knowing what to call it. This resonance was one of the reasons she desperately wanted to see Sam again.

Since their first encounter, she couldn't get him out of her head.

Growing frustrated, she felt compelled to see him, taking the lead to ask her father to let her tag along to the Hailstorm clan.

Not far away, Amelia narrowed her eyes with an irritated look as she observed the way Yuna was looking at Sam. 'Tch, another one bites the dust. It seems I have to up my game, as the competitors are increasing at an alarming rate. I must secure my place as the first wife.'

Amelia's gaze then shifted to another figure emitting Sennyu resonance. 'A dragon from the Hailstorm clan, huh? Just like that werewolf and this Qilin girl, she also gives me this Sennyu resonance.'

'I wonder how darling came up with this name 'Sennyu Resonance'?' Amelia smiled to herself as she observed the new dragon girl.

The girl she was observing was Ophelia Hailstorm, daughter of Duncan Hailstorm, who was the youngest brother of Alexander Hailstorm, recently banished from the Ancestral Manor.

the girl's milky hair flowed down her back up to her waist, and her dark black eyes contemplated Sam with an expression only she understood.

Next to Ophelia stood her father, Duncan Hailstorm.

'Hmm, Helena's son, right? Let's see if his talent matches his looks,' he mused, continuing to observe Sam with a calculating gaze.

Not far away, Nicholas Scarlett spotted his second daughter.

"My daughter..." Nicholas called out to her.
