Chapter 568: Chapter 363 Begins_2
After instructing Sandy Wexler, Logan left the residence of the City Lord. He and Bart Cloud then rested at a tea stall by the street, observing the changes in the city’s situation. If everything had settled down, they could continue their journey and training elsewhere.
Silas Summer was dead, making the tens of millions of people in the city tremble in fear. A Quasi-Saint had dared to challenge the City Lord, but ended up in such a tragic ending. Who would want to become the next one, or who was confident enough in their strength to believe they were above the Quasi-Saint Seat?
“So satisfying! Originally, everyone in our city was in danger, with many even fleeing. I didn’t expect the outcome to be reversed so suddenly. Obviously, trusting our Lord is never wrong. All unruly forces and sects will have to pay a painful price.”
“The Spirit Gathering Array is powerful, much more useful than any city-protecting array. With the Spirit Gathering Array in the city, let’s see who dares to bully us!”
“Long live the City Lord! If those sects dare to cause trouble again, let’s all work together and pour our powers into the Spirit Gathering Array, make it as useful as the City-protecting Array.”
Contrary to the smugness of the city folk, the scheming forces and sects in the city felt as if they were treading on thin ice. After all, even a Quasi-Saint Seat had perished. They dared not cause trouble anymore and could only think about escaping from the city.
The Supreme Sect was dealt with the most significant blow. Their young master and Enforcement Elder had already encountered mishaps, which were huge blows to the sect. But now, even their Sect Leader was gone. The existence of the sect was under threat, which led its members to flee in a panic.
Of course, this included some family clans in the city, which once harbored dishonorable intentions. However, with such a living example now, they decided to always heed the words of Lord Sandy Wexler and never have second thoughts.
After Logan and Bart left the city, they arrived at a nearby mountain range. After a period of training, introspection, and combat experience, Logan felt that his realm was about to break through. So he found a quiet place and started to cultivate.
A few days later, feeling that the threshold had opened up to him, rays of golden light surged from Logan, heading straight to the sky. Above the Nine Heavens, the wind and clouds changed, dark clouds formed a Thunder Tribulation, and myriad Laws spun continuously.
Logan opened his eyes: “Finally, am I about to reach the Dominator Realm?” Immediately after he said this, in a blink, he flew into the air. The Thunder Tribulation formed by the thunderclouds became even more potent, as though a bolt of lightning might disperse his soul at any moment.
This scene alarmed Bart Cloud. He put up a security perimeter around a few miles nearby, fearing that someone might disturb Logan’s breakthrough. However, their location was in the middle of a Demon Beast Mountain Range, and aside from some cultivators training, there were no other people around.
Thunder Tribulation struck down from the sky, and Logan managed to resist it decisively. However, its immense destructive power made his expression severe. This was followed by one bolt after another, a total of eighty-one, all of which Logan withstood.
After that, his entire body seemed to undergo a transformation. Countless Laws’ Forces surrounded him, and Logan seemed to be able to see the Great Law and order of the rules before his eyes. This meant that Logan’s realm had taken another step up. By this time, he was already a Strong Dominator.
Previously, even though Logan was at the Perfect King’s Seat, he could match a Half-step Saint Seat. Now that he was a Dominator, could he compare to the Quasi-Saint Seat? This doubt made Logan eager to test his strength. If he encountered a Quasi-Saint Seat next time, he would definitely challenge them to a duel.
Bart Cloud was naturally filled with envy: “I’m still at the Perfect King’s Seat, and there’s no sign of me making a breakthrough. I guess it’ll take another ten or so years. It’s really frustrating.”
“The cultivation of Cultivators always progresses slowly. Some people cultivate for hundreds of years and may not even reach the King’s Seat. You are already talented. I just had more opportunities than you.”
Logan smiled lightly, feeling the power of reaching a higher level: “I must admit, the Dominator Realm is indeed vastly different from the King’s Seat, especially the different use of the Laws. There are three thousand Great Laws, and I can now see through several of them.”
“Where will we train next?” Bart Cloud asked. Logan’s realm had already had a stable breakthrough. Next, they were going to leave this mountain range. Moreover, Logan’s breakthrough was truly earth-shattering, it’s estimated that it won’t take long to attract many powers to investigate.
“We’ll take one step at a time!” Logan also had no specific plans and intended to first leave this mountain range with Bart Cloud. Perhaps they could return to the city they were in before and see how well Sandy Wexler is managing, and then find a new direction to continue travelling.
As soon as the two left the mountain range, a crowd suddenly surrounded them and asked, “Have two of you seen a heavily injured person escaping this way?”
Logan and Bart Cloud both shook their heads. The crowd continued to pursue in another direction. Logan found out that this group of people were not highly ranked, and they were only of the Middle-Level Transcendent Tier. Having seen many strong ones, the transcendent tier seemed rather low level to him.
But recalling that when he first arrived at the Ancient Instance, he was only at the myth level, at that time a transcendent was already considered a strong one. The two of them continued walking, and suddenly found an unconscious person who was covered in injuries. They immediately associated this with the person the crowd was pursuing just now.
Just as they approached within three or four steps, the man suddenly woke up. “Don’t come back.” Enduring the pain, the young man wanted to continue running. Logan and Bart Cloud felt baffled but didn’t stop him, they let him run as they didn’t know him.
At this moment, the crowd from earlier appeared: “Where do you think you’re going?” Following that, the crowd took out the Dharma devices to attack the young man. Due to Logan’s close proximity to the young man, the crowd’s Dharma devices and Divine Skills nearly injured Logan.
Initially, Logan had no intention of intervening but he got irritated: “What is the dispute between you? Or after I leave, continue fighting? Don’t inadvertently hurt innocent bystanders.”
“You might be with him, get him.” Ignoring what Logan said, the crowd decided to attack Logan and Bart Cloud as well after hesitating for a moment. However, this group of people were too weak to be an opponent for either Logan or Bart Cloud.
So much so that Logan didn’t even bother to make a move, it was Bart Cloud who took them all down in less than three rounds, leaving dozens of them lying on the ground.
The young man bowed to the two, expressing his gratitude: “I am eternally grateful. If I have the chance, I will surely repay this favor.” He then hurried to leave this place of trouble, as there would surely be more people coming to kill him. He definitely couldn’t be discovered.
“Wait, what exactly happened?” Now that Logan was involved, he had to figure out what was going on. He couldn’t let people go without knowing the full story, especially since he had saved them. He deserved to hear the truth, so he wouldn’t unwittingly pay someone else’s bills.
After hesitating for a while, the young man said: “This matter is of great importance. It’s better not to know. It involves the safety of several Lords. The people who are chasing me are from the Demonic Sky Gate, the number one deadly sect. I’m carrying a letter to deliver.”
“Interesting, where are you going? Why don’t we go together?” Logan became interested. Since he and Bart Cloud had no direction now, why not join in on the fun.
After considering, the young man agreed. After all, he was severely injured, and Logan and Bart Cloud were powerful. They could protect him along the way. He didn’t suspect their identities at all. If they had hidden intentions, why would they save him instead of killing him outright?
Along the way, Bart Cloud couldn’t stop asking, “Can you tell us in more detail?” The other party only spoke vaguely, which made them very curious. How did it involve the safety of several Lords?
“Several sects faced bankruptcy due to poor management. The sects couldn’t make ends meet, they planned to target the Lords. In order to continue their operation, they had to plunder the spirit stones and resources from those Lords.”
The young man sighed deeply and told them everything about this matter. Once these sects took action, it would undoubtedly cause devastation to all living beings.
