Chapter 546: 258: Monsters from Various Countries, One Layer Heaven per Month
In Mist River City, in Jack Clark’s room, Doris Clark was somewhat nervous, “Jim, what was that thing in the sky just now? Your brother won’t be in any trouble, right?”
The overwhelming blood light, even through the network, instinctively made Doris Clark, an ordinary person, panic and fearful.
Glenn Clark reassured her, “Mom, don’t worry, I’m sure brother is fine.”
“Have you forgotten how fierce he was earlier? He took out that massive Blood Python Beast with his weapon in just two strikes,” Glenn remarked, his excitement rising at the memory.
“And before you came up, bro charged into those red monsters, boom, boom, boom, he killed tens of thousands ‘people’ in just a while, terrifyingly fast.”
“So even if there was really some danger in the sky just now, with brother’s speed, running away would definitely not be a problem, so mom, don’t worry.”
With Glenn’s reassurance, the panic in Doris Clark’s heart eased a little.
Yes, her son has become so powerful, he must be alright.
At that moment, Glenn scratched the back of his head, “But mom, how did brother become so fierce all of a sudden? He had just broken through the Four Layer Heaven when he went to the Alien Beast Battlefield three months ago.”
“Could it be that cultivation is very simple?” Glenn formed this theory.
After all, Jack Clark had started cultivation just over half a year ago, transforming directly from a sickly youth into a terrifying strong man who could move mountains and split the earth.
Soon, with the restoration of communications, the entire world learned of the final anomaly in the battle at Mason City, which was the descent of the true body of the Evil God.
Mathilda Ward, who safely returned, also announced the process of this battle to the public.
The genius Clyde, who swept across the cultivation circles of two countries, was executed on the spot by Darren Callum for colluding with the Evil God Sect and betraying the Human Race—his crimes, unforgivable.
As for the descent of the Evil God’s true body, it was repelled by the king-level defenders in the human inner world and even pursued through the world passageways.
The entire web erupted in frenzy.
Compared to the previous Evil God Clone in Mason, this time the true body of the Evil God himself had descended.
“It must have been Darren Callum’s consecutive killings of the Evil God Clone that ultimately provoked the Blood God Sect’s Blood God into a rage, causing his true body to descend and attempt to kill him.”
“I think so too, Darren is just too strong.”
“According to an authoritative expert from Eastern Summer, the last Nine-headed Blood Python that appeared was at least at the Eighth Layer Early Phase, but even so, it was defeated by Darren.”
“Hiss! It’s actually the Eight Layer; no wonder it looked so terrifying at the time.”
“But Darren is even more terrifying.”
“With his late Sixth Layer Heaven strength, he crossed over two major realms to kill his enemy; such heaven-defying combat power, I feel like there is no second person in the entire Federation.”
“Also, Darren killed hundreds of thousands of ‘monsters’; this battle has made him a legend. Everyone agrees that he’s the number one among the younger generation of the Human Race, right?”
“No objections, he’s definitely an aberration.”
“Yeah, I’ve never seen such a strong Sixth Heaven cultivator.”
“Err… guys upstairs, the more you talk, the more exaggerated it becomes. I admit Darren is strong, but calling him the first person of the new generation of the Human Race is probably too much for him.”
“There have been countless geniuses in the Federation over the years, like Berlin’s Bear Beast Balderas, who broke through to full beast transformation at the age of nineteen with a peerless talent.”
“And in his early Seventh Layer Heaven phase, Balderas tore apart an Eighth Level Beast that was destroying fishing boats, showing terrifying combat power.”
“Then there’s Gabriella from the Simoon Cathedral Academy, who reached the peak of the Sixth Heaven at seventeen years old and personally designed high-order mechanical armament.”
“Not to mention Eastern Summer, which is frequently producing geniuses. I heard the military’s secret weapon, Eddy Keller, is even more monstrous than Innate Awakened Ones.”
“These are just some of the more well-known geniuses. There are many more talents rising in each empire and other countries, or quietly cultivating.”
“As far as I know, in the Southern Battlefield of Eastern Summer, a high school junior named Jane Aiken has made terrifying progress after breaking through the Four Layer Heaven, almost a realm per month.”
“Even that would be fine, but this girl also possesses a horrifying comprehension talent and has already mastered four Sword Intents, unparalleled in offense.”
“Really? Four types of Sword Intent is too fake, right? And brother, how do you know all this?”
“Because I am Eddy Keller, the strongest genius of Eastern Summer.”
“Damn! All this buildup just for that sentence, right? It’s clearly a scam, I freaking still consider myself Berlin’s number one, Balderas’s brother.”
In an apartment in Berlin, Balderas was indignant, furiously typing out a long message on his computer.
“Disperse, disperse.”
“I knew that guy was bluffing all along, a realm a month, I’ll ascend to the throne in a year myself.”
The impact of the battle outside Mason City was even more significant than Jack Clark and the others had imagined.
Soon the web was flooded with various short videos.
There were clips of Jack Clark obliterating Clyde with an overwhelming force, the moments he manifested his Combat Shadow, as well as an edit of him bombing tens of thousands of Blood Demons.
But the video with the highest clicks and views was that of him transforming into the Divine Might Emperor Dragon form, bursting the Nine-headed Blood Python.
Apart from this, the network also featured scenes of Damon Lopes wielding Thunder, holding a battle sword to summon lightning.
However, compared to Jack’s trending moments, those watching Damon were significantly fewer.
But despite the high interest, no one thought of digging deeper into Jack’s identity data.
Investigating the personal details of someone with official backing, such as this monstrous talent, was no different from seeking death; one might as well invite special service personnel to their door just by searching…
“Mom, you don’t have to worry now, Brother is fine.”
As Doris Clark looked at the constantly refreshing information on the computer, she let out a sigh of relief, “As long as he’s fine.”
“Hmph! That so-called Evil God actually tried to kill my brother. Just wait, once I can start cultivation, within a year I’ll beat the crap out of it.”
“Jim, don’t swear, you’re only fourteen.”
But after saying that, looking at her second son who was already over one meter ninety tall and immensely muscular, she didn’t quite know what to say.
Ever since Glenn Clark had eaten the Mutated Beast Meat that Jack Clark brought back, his physique had become more and more imposing, his arms almost as thick as someone else’s waist.
And he digested it so quickly, feeling hungry every day and never full. Therefore, while fishing Glenn Clark would directly carry a barbecue grill, grilling while fishing at the same time.
However, although Glenn Clark looked formidable and intimidating, he seemed to be quite popular at school, having good relationships with several classmates, especially with a girl named Teresa Wilson.
“Phew! Good thing everything’s fine.”
In the research building, a delicate and pretty girl let out a sigh of relief.
Freya Louise’s transcendent and innate aura was becoming more apparent, and her energy had reached the peak of the Triplex Heaven.
This level of cultivation was already quite good for a First Grader, but it seemed a bit slow compared to her talent, which was not weaker than that of Justin Welan and the others.
Suddenly, energy within Freya Louise’s body started to fluctuate wildly and her True Strength became more active. The surrounding Heavenly Energy naturally gathered towards her, a sign that she was about to break through the Fourth Layer Heaven.
But quickly, she suppressed the urge for the breakthrough back down.
The girl, having calmed the surging True Strength within her, slowly exhaled and whispered softly, “I can’t breakthrough just yet, I need to wait a bit longer.”
…
Returning to the hotel, both Damon Lopes and Jack Clark felt a lot lighter.
The True Body of Kautorus was slain, the Blood God Acunus Avatar sealed, and with the real body drawn out and those demon kings on top of it, the battle was essentially over.
Compared to Jack Clark and his companions, the dancers and employees who had followed to watch the excitement, as well as guards like Lionel Lopez, were still struggling to come to grips with what had happened.
It was night-time already, and after having dinner and a brief rest, everyone returned to their rooms.
Both Jack Clark and Damon Lopes were greatly depleted by this event.
Especially the latter, who had even triggered his Innate Thunderbolt to stop Acunus.
Night!
Jack Clark sat cross-legged on his bed, Heavenly Energy from within a hundred meters radius converged around him, creating an invisible wind that blew through his hair as if it were moving on its own.
Compared to Eastern Summer, as a medium-sized country, Gunaer’s energy density was several times lower.
And that was after these countries followed the example of the three major empires, setting up rudimentary Enchantments around the core areas of their major cities to gather and constrain Heavenly Energy.
After the battle that day, Jack Clark felt fluctuations in his energy. Under such circumstances, his cultivation speed would be faster than usual.
After meditating intensively for three hours, Jack Clark finally slowly opened his eyes.
Glancing at the clock on the wall which showed eleven o’clock, and feeling the sense of hibernation deep within his consciousness, Jack Clark thought for a moment, then took out a black iron-like object from the Sumeru Bracelet.
It was the Mystical Disc containing the Gail Family’s Space-Time Summoning Technique.
With the seventh layer of the Secret Book successfully constructed, he had more free time before breaking through to the Seventh Layer Heaven, and he could take some time to study this summoning technique.
As for the eighth layer of the Secret Book, it required him to break through to the Seventh Layer Heaven before he could continue.
Reaching the eighth layer was the process of merging the true martial arts phantom with the true body, not just a matter of enveloping oneself with Heavenly Energy.
Thus, after breaking through to the Seventh Layer Heaven, not only would Jack Clark need to convert Heavenly Energy from void to reality, he would also need to continuously adjust and optimize the structure of his true martial arts phantom according to his own situation.
The more in sync the true martial arts phantom was with himself, the faster his Eighth Layer Heaven cultivation speed would be.
After witnessing the kings whose mere aura could collapse the Void today, Jack Clark felt a strong sense of crisis and unease.
Although he was extremely powerful at full strength, already touching the threshold of the Eight Layer Heaven, he still was utterly defenseless against a king-level strong man.
He was still three major realms away from reaching that level of a king. Before then, he must find a way to acquire a trump card that could allow him to either combat a king-level strong man or escape from one.
For instance, mastering this Space-Time Summoning Technique.
With the strength of the Thunderflame Emperor Dragon, who had grown to level nine and substantially increased in power, when he would also strengthen his Golden Flame Talent to top-tier,
under the Five Top-level Talents, a level nine early stage Thunderflame Emperor Dragon could surely hold its own even against a Top-level Colossal Beast that had grasped Law Power at the level nine peak.
Whether he could defeat the opponent was another matter, only to be discovered through actual combat.
After all, life-and-death battles are not simply a comparison of data; having higher data doesn’t guarantee victory.
Once the Thunderflame Emperor Dragon continued to grow for some time, reaching mid-level nine, and with one more Top Tier Talent enhanced to an even higher level, its strength would be truly terrifying.
Besides this, he needs to find a way to enhance his Void Double Pupils to top-tier.
Jack Clark had a feeling that once the Void Double Pupils are enhanced to top-tier levels, there will be an astonishing transformation. Moreover, it was time to prioritize the strengthening of his Soul Talent.
Thinking about this, Jack Clark suddenly felt he had a lot to do, and that he was incredibly busy.
Boom!
Jack Clark’s consciousness once again entered the Secret Disc Space, immersing in the mysteries of space and time contained within the secret arts.
