“Yes!” Opal nodded.
“He has broken through to the late stage of the second-rank Sacred Realm, advancing by a rank and a half!”
After a slight pause, she added, “If he didn’t deliberately suppress it, he could have easily broken through to the third-rank Sacred Realm.”
“Really?” Casey and the others were shocked.
“Yes!” Opal nodded again.
At the same time, not far away, Billy’s breath gradually stabilized.
At this moment, he transferred his consciousness to his sea of consciousness.
“Kid, remember, you owe me a favor!” the long-lost old man’s voice sounded inside his body.
Obviously, the reason Billy was able to absorb Nelson Morris’ essence was because of the old man’s intervention.
“You are saving yourself as well. If the other party didn’t threaten you, would you still help?” Billy responded lightly.
Earlier, when he was critically injured by Nelson Morris, he could clearly feel that his bloodline was more active than usual.
At that time, he speculated that the bloodline power might unintentionally unlock the seal of the old man inside him.
And the result was exactly as he had guessed!
After the bloodline power became active to a critical point, the voice of the old man rang in his mind.
Later, he willingly let Nelson Morris absorb his bloodline, as it was the old man’s intention to give him a big gift.
He knew that the old man’s fate was tied to his own, so he was not worried that the old man would harm him.
Therefore, the scene just now happened.
Although the old man in Nelson Morris’ body was not weak, he was far inferior to the old man inside Billy’s body.
The result was self-evident!
In the end, after absorbing the opponent’s power, he successfully broke through to the late stage of the second-rank Sacred Realm.
And as Opal said, he deliberately suppressed his cultivation, otherwise, he could easily break through to the third-rank Sacred Realm.
He was not a greedy person and knew that impatience in martial arts was not a good thing.
Of course, now, as long as he wanted, he could break through the bottleneck in his heart at any time and upgrade to the third-rank Sacred Realm!
“Kid, do you know the meaning of ‘repaying kindness’?” the old man was angry after hearing Billy’s words.
“Enough, don’t go on!” Billy interrupted him, “My advancement in cultivation is also good for you, isn’t it?”
“Joke!” the old man retorted.
“With your puny cultivation, what benefit can you bring to me!”
“If I were at my peak, I could crush you with a snap of my fingers!”
“You know it is just an ‘if’?” Billy coldly splashed cold water on him, “When in Rome, do as the Romans do!”
“Kid, you…” the old man was furious.
“Let me ask you a question!” Billy interrupted him, “You won’t just stay in my body like this forever, right?”
“Hmph!” the old man grunted, “If it weren’t for the old man last time sealing me, you would already be…”
“There must be a way to get you out of my body, right?” Billy didn’t take the other party’s words.
“Or, how can I actively release and seal your soul consciousness?”
Although, for him, having a stranger’s soul consciousness stay in his body meant no immediate danger until he encountered someone stronger than the old man.
But having a stranger’s soul consciousness continuously stay in his body felt a bit strange.
Furthermore, even if he couldn’t completely get the old man out, he wanted to be able to release him to help him resist the enemies when needed, instead of relying on the bloodline power every time he was in a life-threatening situation.
“Hmph! With your current cultivation, you are far from being able to get me out completely!” the old man replied, “Unless the old man from last time intervenes!”
After a brief pause, he continued.
“When you break through to the late stage of the Sacred Realm, maybe you can try to actively lift my seal. For now, forget about it!”
“The late stage of the Sacred Realm?” Billy’s eyes narrowed slightly.
It shouldn’t take too long!
“By the way, what was your cultivation level at your peak?” Billy continued to ask.
“Why ask so many questions, you won’t understand even if I tell you, you…” the old man replied unkindly.
Before he could finish speaking, he cursed, “Damn, can’t your damn bloodline let me out a while longer…”
At this point, his voice abruptly stopped.
Apparently, he was sealed again!
“Interesting!”
After a faint smile, Billy withdrew his consciousness from the sea of consciousness.
Then, he opened his eyes and looked around.
Opal, Harleen, and the others stood in front of him, looking worried.
The injuries on several people had been temporarily stabilized by Ivy, preventing them from deteriorating further.
“Honey, how are you?” Harleen asked hurriedly when she saw Billy open his eyes.
“You made everyone worried. I’m fine!” Billy smiled at them and stood up.
“Billy, are you really okay?” Ivy asked again.
“I really am fine!” Billy smiled again and said.
“Take a rest first, I’ll go check on Azure Dragon and the others, and come back later to help you heal.” He had already examined the injuries of several people, so there shouldn’t be any danger.
Later, he flew towards the location of Azure Dragon and the others in the palace courtyard.
The rest of the story was suspenseful.
With his arrival, in less than a minute, the remaining people surrendered and knelt down to beg for mercy.
For those who followed orders, Billy naturally wouldn’t kill them all.
Half an hour later, after Billy helped Opal and the others deal with their injuries, they arrived at the central square of the palace courtyard.
At the same time, Hank Cantu came over with Siena Morris.
At this moment, Siena Morris looked extremely weak, with a pale face and void eyes, as if she could faint at any moment.
“Princess!” Rose walked quickly to Siena Morris.
Approaching her, she tapped a few acupoints on Siena Morris’ body to release her seal.
Then, she placed her hand on Siena Morris’ back and infused her body with Chi power.
After a while, Siena Morris managed to barely recover some vitality.
Hank Cantu then knelt down in front of Billy and trembled as he spoke, “Please, Mr Billy, spare me…”
At this point, he naturally knew that Nelson Morris had met his end and that the situation was beyond saving.
“I… I was coerced by Prince Nelson, please, Mr Billy… spare my life…”
However, Billy didn’t even look at him.
“Princess, are you alright? Do you need any help?” Harleen asked Siena Morris when she saw her.
Siena Morris, accompanied by Rose, also knelt down.
“Thanks, Mr Billy, Madam, for saving our lives!”
