Chapter 503 (Massage Chair Extra - )

He had never imagined that his grand possession scheme, meticulously planned with countless efforts, would crumble apart at this very moment.

Silvan’s face gradually became clear on the formation, his gaze was firm and bright, as if capable of piercing through all darkness.

He spoke slowly, his voice faint but full of unyielding power, "Edmund, did you think your conspiracy would succeed? I was never defeated by you, I was only temporarily bound by your power, I have been looking for an opportunity, waiting to regain control of my body."

"Why do you think you broke through to the Mortal Supreme Realm so easily?"

"That was because I was hiding inside the formation cultivating, I was helping you."

"And now, I am stronger than you!"

Hearing this, Edmund felt a burst of panic, he hurriedly mobilized all his spiritual energy, desperately attempting to repair the collapsing formation.

But every attempt was futile, Silvan’s power was like an insurmountable barrier, blocking all his efforts.

Edmund shouted with anxious fury, "How exactly did you do this? How could my formation be broken by you, and how could it allow you to hide within it."

Silvan’s voice was icy, "Edmund, you didn’t really think that over all this time, I hadn’t studied your formation at all, did you? I have been constantly accumulating power and looking for flaws, now witness my true strength."

"I will avenge my family."

With that, Silvan’s soul crawled completely out of the formation.

Golden light erupted from his eyes, and a powerful force exploded from his body, sweeping through the entire dantian like a violent storm, striking Edmund’s soul until it teetered on the verge of collapse.

Edmund discovered to his horror that he could no longer resist, he couldn’t even flee, his soul began to collapse under Silvan’s attack, and heart-wrenching agony radiated from the depths of his spirit.

He let out a miserable scream, full of despair and unwillingness.

"No, I cannot fail like this!" Edmund roared, trying to stabilize his soul, but Silvan’s power had completely awakened, and Edmund’s soul began to dissipate under the relentless assault.

Watching his body gradually lose control, fear and despair surged through Edmund like a tidal wave, he was powerless to reverse the situation, and could only watch as his plans shattered into dust.

"Silvan... you win..." Edmund’s voice gradually weakened and finally vanished completely.

Silvan watched Edmund’s soul dissipate, yet his heart didn’t hold much joy, although he had won, he had paid an immense price, he took a deep breath, his path was not yet over, there were still many other Edmunds in this world, and he was going to slaughter every last one of them.

In the subsequent scenes, Silvan traveled the entire world, hunting down every single Edmund, after an unknown amount of time, his strength broke through to a terrifying realm, and Edmund’s clones were finally exterminated completely.

At the very end, Silvan returned to his hometown, he passed away, his body dissolving into light, in front of his parents’ and sister’s graves.

Bruce looked at the specks of light in the air, finding himself somewhat speechless.

The story was very long, long enough to walk through the entire life of a Saint, yet the story was also very short, like reading a picture book, ending before many pages were even turned.

Silvan had endured silently within that formation for over a decade, Bruce couldn’t imagine how a helpless, solitary soul had survived that long in the dark, this level of perseverance, this level of determination, he felt heartfelt admiration.

Bruce took a deep breath, he knew why his Master had brought him here, his Master wanted him to understand that for a gentleman, ten years is not too late for revenge, he couldn’t be hasty, he had to bide his time.

Right at that moment, the specks of starlight that Silvan had transformed into actually floated toward Bruce, merging into his body.

Bruce’s mind instantly felt a profound burst of clarity, he seemed about to grasp a critical enlightenment, he hurriedly sat down, clearing his mind of all distractions, and began cultivating the Heavenly Origin Undying Technique.

Adam’s figure materialized as well, looking at Bruce, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

Good, this kid wasn’t too stupid, he understood, those principles seemed simple to speak of, but embodying them was incredibly difficult, only by personally experiencing them could one truly comprehend their weight, otherwise, who didn’t know grand principles? Wouldn’t anyone become a Saint then?

Principles aren’t about quantity, but true comprehension, this was one of the greatest functions of the Starlight Crystal: allowing a person to vividly experience the path another had walked through their entire life, achieving true empathy and resonance.

Adam did not disturb Bruce, letting him cultivate on his own, with a Saint’s mindset and experiences augmenting him, the Heavenly Origin Undying Technique should no longer be difficult, he smiled faintly and left the Starlight Crystal.

...

Shortly after, he appeared in a secret study, formations were densely packed here, capable of isolating all external prying.

The Human Saint and Old Man Wind were conversing, the former was the Vice Pass Lord of Heaven-Sealing Pass, the latter the Defending General.

Seeing Adam appear, the two put down their documents.

"Any progress?" Adam asked slowly.

"No, we still haven’t determined whether there are hidden spies from the Heavenly Court or the Evil God among us," the Human Saint shook his head.

"Could it be groundless fear? The auras on people from the Heavenly Court and the Evil God are far too obvious, it should be impossible for them to slip into Heaven-Sealing Pass undetected," Old Man Wind frowned.

With the sky canopy, the World Protection Barrier, present, those from the Evil God and the Heavenly Court simply couldn’t enter.

"I also hope so, but if you were from the Heavenly Court or the Evil God, would you let us build Heaven-Sealing Pass so peacefully?" Adam asked in return.

"They can’t get in from outside, but that doesn’t mean they don’t already have people embedded within the Mysterious Yellow Great World."

"But I can’t think of anyone among us who would betray us."

"That’s why we have to search, I already have a plan, it just needs a little more time," a sharp glint flashed in Adam’s eyes.

Bruce’s life at Heaven-Sealing Pass was exceedingly dull and tedious, as if carved into a monotonous cycle.

Every day, he had to face endless cultivation and heavy construction tasks, which occupied almost all of his time and energy.
