Ancient Tears BloodLine



Dean office,

"Dean, he didn't even attend our call as well," Ernest answered. He can see that the dean wants to talk about the challenge duel. 

But Zacl closed off all modes of communication. 

Rebecca frowned. This has never happened before. When another faction member had a duel with Zack. He didn't react seriously to them before the duel.

Did he know about Eurice Frye? Rebecca thought to herself. Then she decided not to disturb him in the end. Eventually, Zack will appear in the match duel. 

Then everything will be cleared. Ernest and Laverne left the room. 

...

Uneven mountain canyon:

A day before the duel,

Thunder~

The thunderclap sound reverberated throughout the mountain. 

Sitting cross-legged on the ground. I continued to circulate the purple essence inside my body. As I had guessed earlier. I'm starting to feel the limit.

A few minutes later,

The invisible barrier became clear. I can't circulate anymore without breaking the barrier. With just a little more effort, I can cross the bridge.

So I didn't take a break and focused on breaking the barrier. I guided the essence of energy and started to attack the invisible barrier.

When the energy collided with the barrier. Like always it remained unscathed. It will take a few more attempts to crack.

Seeing that I continued to repeat the process. 

Time passed,

After 2 hours, I'm starting to get results. 

Cracks~

Cracks appeared on the invisible barrier one by one. After a few minutes, the barrier broke into pieces.

The next second, as the floodgates opened. Changes start to take place in my body. The space inside the dantian began to expand.

The inner organs, veins, and meridians are getting strengthened under the breakthrough. I carefully circulated the purple essence to maximize the benefits.

The feeling of getting stronger is more apparent this time. 

The space expansion inside Dantian comes to an end. Leaving the space for more purple essence storage. 

Peak level elite (Lightning essence)

Several minutes later,

The changes stopped and I looked inside my dantian. The purple essence is more refined and powerful than before.

Seeing that, I really can't wait to use the attack power but before that, I need to stabilize the base.

Then I closed my eyes and started to cultivate again. After a breakthrough, I can perceive the changes. The essence was powerful compared to before.

A few hours later,

After stabilizing the base, I opened my eyes. Then I started to draw out the purple essence from my body. A single strand of purple essence appeared on top of my finger.

Seeing that I continued to draw out. Until a small purple ball appeared on the tip of my finger. The next second, I shot the lightning ball at the nearby rock. 

Boom~

The rock was destroyed into pieces. It's not even a technique. But the domineering power of the lightning element. 

Suddenly a bad smell attacked my nostril. Then I saw the surface of my body was covered with black impurities 

"Small cleansing," I uttered in delight.

This usually happens when I break through. Now that my essence is one step behind my body strength.

I believe when I broke through Super Elite in essence. There will be major changes in my body.

Outside,

Jonathan noticed Zack's powerful essence. This shows that Zack succeeded in reaching the Peak Elite Stage. He was glad that he brought Zack here. 

"For the Super Elite breakthrough, it will require more purple essence," Jonathan said to himself. A careful look appeared on his face.

Zack broke through not only because of his hard work. But also because of the unique environment here. 

The thunder and lightning here brought great benefits to Zack. But it's a pity the place is far away from the academy.

Jonathan made up his mind to eliminate the threats first. Then only Zack can safely travel here in the future.

"Are you ready to go back?" Jonathan asked.

"uh?" Jonathan's words reached my ears.

"Yes, but I want to clean myself first," I answered.

Jonathan then took the back barrier before dragging me towards the small running stream at the foot of the mountain.

Seeing that I didn't hesitate to go down to clean myself.

Several minutes later,

I changed into a fresh set of clothes. Then Jonathan took me back to Viper City.

When we appeared in Viper City. It was already sunset. After turning on the communication, I realized that the duel day is tomorrow. 

"Jonathan, what are you going to do next?" I asked.

We are standing in the private courtyard of someone else. Hardly anyone is walking by here. Which gives us small privacy.

Jonathan thought about the Giant Tower Academy. He doesn't mind sharing the news with Zack.

"I already got some clues. The Giant Tower Academy is internally divided. The headmaster of that academy is targeting you for some reason. But he didn't have the support of other elders," Jonathan answered.

"What?" My heart was shocked to the core. I thought out of academy rivalry they are targeting me. Then why?

Jonathan saw through Zack's thoughts. 

"Don't worry, I'm close to the truth. I'll find out what he is planning?" Jonathan said.

Hearing that I shook my head. More than the Giant Tower Headmaster. I'm worried about the Special Faction Head.

"What about Carlos Kent?" 

"I'm getting uneasy these days," I said.

A quick glint flashes in Jonathan's eyes. 

"Okay, I will be there tomorrow," He replied.

I sighed in relief. Then after speaking for a few more minutes, I parted ways with him. Jonathan is going to stay here tonight. 

And he will come tomorrow to watch my duel. Soon, I found the bird monster in the monster facility for the return journey.

2 hours later,

The falcon birds drop me at the academy transit area. After handing the bird monster to the staff, I walked out.

Instead of going to the dorm room. I went to the training room. It's necessary to control the new strength. I plan to use a little amount of lightning essence for training.

Since it was evening time, no one paid attention to me. A few students are walking by.

Soon I entered the training room. There were metal puppets. After changing the settings for puppets to stationary.

I brought the black sword outside and held it tightly. Then I decided to use the Sword Divide technique.

I put the sword forward and started to charge the sword with a small amount of purple essence.

As I started to use the technique. A small amount of purple essence moved from dantian and it followed the route to gather at the palms.

When the purple essence appeared in my palms. I drove energy towards the sword. The sword absorbed the essence and right after the black blade flickered with a purple glint. 

"Sword Divide," I shouted.

The next second, I discharged the lightning attack from the sword. The purple sword beam shot at the target in a blink of an eye.

Boom~

The metal puppet broke into pieces from the impact. Seeing that a hint of joy appeared in my eyes. The sword divide move is better than before.

A small amount of purple essence is enough to charge the sword. Peak Elite purple essence was stronger and I don't have to consume more purple essence for any of my lightning techniques.

Not only for tomorrow's duel. For future challenges as well. The Sword Divide testing alone gave me enough confidence. 

And I don't want to test the Lightning wheel technique. Which will be more destructive. 

Before going back, I want to test the Lightning finger technique. I feel I will be using this technique tomorrow more in the duel. The finger technique usually consumes less amount of essence.

So I'm looking forward to it. Then I changed the setting and a new metal puppet appeared in place of the previous one.

I raised my hand and pointed the finger at the metal puppet. I started to run the 1st stage of the lightning finger technique. 

A small purple ball gathered on top of my finger. I took a moment to observe the purple ball. The purple ball looks a lot denser and thicker. 

I already tested the single strand of purple essence at an uneven mountain peak. Then I shot the purple ball at the metal puppet.

Swoosh~

In a blink of an eye, the purple beam reached the puppet. When the power comes in contact with the puppet.

Boom~

A terrible sound reverberated inside the room.

A massive chest size hole appeared on the metal puppet. Seeing that my eyes shone with bright light. The impact was greater than before. 

And it was only the 1st stage in the lightning finger technique. What about the 2nd stage? 

The worry about duels is not anymore. Earlier, I planned to rely on body strength. Now there is no need to worry about exposing the body's strength. 

I believe the lightning attacks will be enough to defeat her. "Eurice Frye," I mumbled under my breath. My eyes flickered. 

I heard she was not an ordinary genius. I believe people have already started comparing us. If I access social media, then I can find relevant topics.
