The Man's Decree

Jared flew higher, heading directly toward the entrance up above. The entrance was teeming with evil spirits, and with the
silverfeather hawk pursuing him from below, Jared would be surrounded by enemies on all sides if he continued flying upward.
“Mr. Chance, hurry up and come back down!” Cloud shouted with all his might but to no avail. as Jared seemed deaf to his cries.
Everyone could only watch as Jared ascended. All they could see was a tiny dot of light growing more and more distant.
The silverfeather hawk, eyes aflame with anger, followed close behind him relentlessly. The sword strike earlier had thoroughly
infuriated the silverfeather hawk, and it was determined to tear Jared to pieces.
Enveloped in Golem Body, Jared emitted a dazzling brilliance. The draconic energy within his draconic essence was slowly
permeating his entire being.
At the same time, discreet transformations were also taking place within his elixir field. Those were measures taken by Jared in
preparation for his breakthrough.
With Golem Body, he wasn’t afraid of the evil spirits. Even if he were to remain motionless at that moment, those evil spirits
couldn’t harm him. As for the silverfeather hawk, Jared planned to use the lightning tribulation to kill it.
Although he would be in his weakest state while undergoing tribulation, that was also an opportunity to deceive and lure the
silverfeather hawk into the range of the lightning tribulation.
Jared was making a bet, and a highly risky one at that. With his current abilities, he couldn’t possibly win against the silverfeather
hawk, an ancient mount, in a one-on-one fight. Even if the hawk had lost its original form, Jared was still not its match.
Boom! Suddenly, dark clouds gathered overhead, and lightning flashed. Witnessing the lightning tribulation clouds forming in the
sky, Jared kept his calm. After the countless lightning tribulations he had experienced, Jared was no longer scared of the
lightning tribulation clouds.
However, he felt the power contained within the lightning tribulation clouds this time seemed less formidable.
Jared couldn’t help but furrow his brows. Then, he unleashed all the draconic energy stored inside his draconic essence and the
power within the giant egg he had fused with. He was going all out as he planned to break through several Levels in one go.
That way, the lightning tribulation’s potency would be augmented by a few folds, but so would the associated risks. After Jared
mustered all his energy, his aura ascended to the peak of Eighth Level in an instant.

Jared required vast resources and spiritual energy to achieve a minor breakthrough in his cultivation level, which was why his
cultivation level increased so slowly.
The higher his cultivation level became, the more resources and spiritual energy he required to attain the subsequent
breakthrough, reaching tens or even hundreds of times more than the amount needed by ordinary cultivators.
Yet, this time, Jared ascended from Fifth Level Body Fusion Realm to the peak of Eighth Level Body Fusion Realm in one go.
The staggering leap in cultivation level was a testament to the immense power stored within the giant egg and the draconic
energy he had absorbed.
If an ordinary cultivator had absorbed that vast amount of resources, they could’ve effortlessly achieved a major breakthrough in
cultivation level.
Jared was elated. If I hadn’t followed Cloud to the Night Sea this time, I wouldn’t have had this fortuitous encounter, much less
managed to advance several Levels at once. If I were to rely solely on mystical herbs and spiritual medicines, it would likely take
me forever to reach the peak of Eighth Level Body Fusion Realm.
Jared had come to realize some resources left behind from the celestial realm were most beneficial in enhancing his cultivation
level. The ice soul fragment then, the draconic energy now, and the giant egg, a product of nature. These are all relics from the
Celestial Battle, not items
native to the Ethereal Realm. Yet, these items are just too helpful in advancing my cultivation. At that thought, Jared decided to
explore the Ethereal Realm more, searching for other forgotten ancient battlefields to see if he could locate more resources.
As Jared’s cultivation level increased, the lightning tribulation clouds in the sky became more turbulent, and the power gathered
within also intensified.
