How much combat power do I actually possess now?

He didn’t know how it happened, but Nathaniel Carter felt that some of the battle will and battlefield experience from that mysterious figure had been passed into his consciousness.

That person’s combat experience was incredibly rich, far beyond anything a scholar like Nathaniel Carter could have imagined.

All of that experience had now completely fused with Nathaniel Carter. He felt that, aside from needing to get used to a few things, those abilities were now as innate to him as if he’d been born with them.

Not caring where he was in the group, Nathaniel Carter walked along while checking the state of his body.

Qi Refining, fifth level!

This was already the rank of a general on the battlefield.

After his body had been remade, although his cultivation was at the fifth level of Qi Refining, in terms of combat power, he fully possessed the strength of the seventh level.

The seventh level of Qi Refining!

Powerful true qi surged within him, and Nathaniel Carter knew he had undergone a tremendous transformation.

The Five Elements Demonic Art was not named lightly—this was truly a demonic art, granting power beyond one’s cultivation level.

His body had been completely transformed by that thing called Xirang, and his internal energy was so abundant that he was now fully capable of fighting!

After figuring out his cultivation, Nathaniel Carter decided not to keep walking. If he went any further, he’d be getting close to the enemy’s gathering point, and if he really reached that place, he’d have no hope left at all.

Secretly glancing at the few Abyssals flying in the sky, Nathaniel Carter calculated how he might launch an attack.

The highest cultivation among them was a person at the sixth level of Qi Refining!

This was his chance!

The Netherworld Road, the River of Forgetfulness, sighing before the Bridge of Helplessness...

Suddenly, a member of the Hua people began to chant loudly.

It was an old man, his beard white as snow. Under the immense pressure, he suddenly went mad, his voice echoing all around.

Heaven and earth are desolate, broken walls everywhere; the heart is troubled, bones withered for ten thousand years...

Another middle-aged man began to chant loudly.

Nathaniel Carter could feel the helplessness these people felt in the face of death.

After years of war, countless men and women of their tribe had gone to the battlefield, and the Bluestar people were now declining, surrounded by enemies on all sides.

Perhaps this was the only way they could ease some of the fear in their hearts.

After all the trauma along the way, the people in the group were on the verge of collapse. Maybe they just wanted to vent with these words.

“Courting death!”

Just as the two were chanting, a powerful force shot toward the old man.

With a single blow, the old man didn’t even have time to scream before he collapsed to the ground.

Another force arrived—a single arrow pierced through the middle-aged man’s body.

Both died right in front of Nathaniel Carter.

Seeing the look of relief in their eyes, Nathaniel Carter suddenly felt a pang of sorrow.

Their deaths made the already restless group fall silent once more.

“If you want to die, just keep making trouble!”

The leader, a master at the sixth level of Qi Refining, flew over and hovered in the air, looking down at the Bluestar people and shouting.

“Nathaniel Carter, you must find a way to escape!” an old man beside Nathaniel Carter whispered to him.

Looking at the old man, Nathaniel Carter remembered—this was the old retainer of the Qin family. Along the way, he had been the one constantly pulling Nathaniel Carter along. If not for him, Nathaniel Carter would have been unable to keep moving.

He was a respectable elder. To take care of Nathaniel Carter, he had followed him to the front lines and was captured as well.

Just as Nathaniel Carter was at a loss for words, he heard the twang of an arrow, and the old man collapsed in a pool of blood.

“Nathaniel Carter, you must live to return...”

The old man struggled to look at Nathaniel Carter, but before he could finish his words, he breathed his last.

Looking at the elder who had always cared for him, now lying dead before him, Nathaniel Carter felt an even more intense pain in his mind.

A deep, searing pain spread through his entire body.

Previously hesitant to attack, Nathaniel Carter was now completely provoked. The powerful battle will in his consciousness fused entirely with his own.

A surge of fighting spirit erupted within him.

“Dare to speak out of turn? Kill them!”

A one-horned man shouted loudly.

“Kill!”

For the first time, Nathaniel Carter’s heart was filled with murderous intent. Thinking of the elder who had cared for him dying right before his eyes, his only thought was to kill these Abyssals.

His blood boiled, his energy surged!

A fierce killing intent filled his whole body. Nathaniel Carter bent down and grabbed some stones from the ground.

This is it!

Nathaniel Carter could no longer endure the enemy’s brutality. He no longer cared whether he could defeat them or not.

It was time!

Seeing the enemy right above him, Nathaniel Carter’s gaze sharpened. Before even standing up, he poured all his internal energy into a stone in his hand and hurled it at the master at the sixth level of Qi Refining.

That Abyssal master never expected that there would be someone like Nathaniel Carter among the crowd. Standing in the air, he hadn’t put up any defenses.

They had checked these Bluestar people countless times—all of them had their dantians sealed, and it should have been impossible for any of them to resist.
