“Is it true, Aubree?” Harleen and Ivy both spoke at the same time.
“I can’t guarantee it, but it’s better than doing nothing, right?” Aubree responded.
Harleen let out a heavy sigh.
Then, she looked at Stephanie Stuart and Billy and said, “Mom, Billy, wait for me. I’ll go back with Aubree and be back soon!”
“Harleen, I’m going with you!” Ivy spoke up at the same time.
Both of them knew that trying to go back was better than sitting here waiting for death, as Aubree had said.
“Harleen, Ivy, don’t push too hard when you go back. Just do your best!” Stephanie Stuart took a deep breath and responded.
She also knew that this was probably the only way now!
“Okay!” Harleen and Ivy nodded at the same time.
“Aubree, I’m sorry for the trouble!” Billy looked at Aubree and spoke.
“Mr Billy, don’t mention it. I can’t guarantee that it will work!” Aubree also took a deep breath.
“Anyway, thank you in advance, Aubree!” Stephanie Stuart stood up and bowed to Aubree.
“Thank you, Aubree!” Billy and the others stood up at the same time.
“You’re welcome, but I can’t guarantee that I can help!” Aubree stood up and returned the gesture.
After speaking, she looked at Harleen and Ivy.
“I don’t know when the people from City Lord’s Mansion will attack. We need to hurry.”
“Take an hour to catch up with each other and then we’ll return to Sky City.”
“Okay!” Harleen and Ivy nodded in response.
Soon after, Harleen and Billy walked out of the door and sat down in a pavilion in the courtyard.
They hadn’t seen each other for several months, so there was a lot to talk about.
Harleen briefly described her experiences in the Ethereal Sect over the past few months to Billy.
In fact, she and Ivy had lived a simple life during these months.
For the first month, they focused on tempering their bodies and were basically in a deep sleep. Starting from the second month, they practiced day and night without rest.
Throughout the process, apart from a few elders and Aubree who helped them temper their bodies in the first month, they hardly saw anyone else.
Even Courtney, the girl in green who had been with them before, only came to see them two or three times during the journey.
So they had no real understanding of the Ethereal Sect.
Then, Billy told Harleen about his situation returning to the country this time, with a focus on their daughter Tasha’s situation.
As Harleen listened, tears uncontrollably streamed down her face. It had been almost two years since she had seen her daughter, and it would be a lie to say she didn’t miss her.
If given the choice, she would want to return home immediately. But she knew very well that it was not realistic!
The two hours passed quickly.
After saying goodbye to everyone, Harleen and Ivy left again with Aubree.
As soon as the three of them left, the emperors of the four great empires led their powerful forces and arrived in Skydragon City one after another.
Upon hearing the news that Blood and Devil Sects had launched a full-scale attack on Skydragon City, they immediately gathered their troops and rushed over.
However, due to the long distance, their flying speed was limited, so they only arrived now.
Afterwards, Billy briefly described the situation with Blood and Devil Sects to the people from the four empires, and then told them about Sky City.
After hearing Billy’s words, everyone felt as if a huge boulder was pressing on their hearts, making it difficult to breathe.
Finally, Billy gave some instructions, and the people from the four empires bid farewell and left. Each person’s face was unusually solemn.
In the following days, Billy and his group entered a frenzy of cultivation.
Everyone knew that they would soon face a real life-and-death battle, and they could only rely on themselves!
Over the years, they had experienced countless life-and-death battles, but none had been as oppressive as this one.
They all felt this way and could understand!
In previous wars, if they lost or even died, it was only an individual matter.
But this time was different. This time, they burdened the safety of billions of people, including their families and friends.
If they lost, everyone would face the same fate; it was only a matter of time!
So they couldn’t afford to lose!
Losing meant billions of lives!
The next day, Billy took out everything from his storage ring. After keeping two Holy Beast beast cores for himself, he had Casey distribute everything to everyone else.
In addition, he specifically instructed Stout to select more than ten high-level spirit fruits for the flying beast.
Then, Billy spent half a day upgrading the Gathering Spirit Array again.
He was now a true Holy Realm cultivator, and his array skills had improved significantly. After the upgrade, the spiritual energy within the Gathering Spirit Array increased by several levels.
Time passed quickly, ten days flew by in an instant.
During these ten days, except for Billy himself, Stephanie Stuart and Edie Fennimore hardly left the Gathering Spirit Array. They cultivated day and night without rest.
With the current effectiveness of the Gathering Spirit Array, staying inside for half a month was equivalent to spending half a year outside.
Coupled with the cultivation resources provided by Aubree, everyone naturally broke through without any suspense.
Stephanie Stuart and Opal not only successfully broke through to Holy Realm but also reached second-rank Holy Realm cultivation level.
With Billy’s help, Casey and Amber officially broke through and entered the Holy Realm.
Azure Dragon and Azure Fang both advanced one level and reached half step into Holy Realm cultivation level. They were just one step away from truly entering Holy Realm.
Night Orchid, Frostblade, and others directly broke through two levels.
After half a month, the team’s overall strength increased by several levels.
However, everyone knew that it was still far from enough compared to Sky City!
It is worth mentioning that with Billy’s help, the flying beast repaired part of its divine soul. After refining several high-level spirit fruits, its strength significantly improved. Although no one knew its exact level, they all understood that it was beyond their reach!
During these ten days, although Billy didn’t cultivate inside the Gathering Spirit Array himself. He felt that since he broke through to Holy Realm, he absorbed spiritual energy from heaven and earth even faster than inside the array.
In these past two weeks, he had been cultivating day and night without rest, doing everything possible to break through his cultivation level.
At this moment, he regretted deliberately suppressing his cultivation level before.
If he had known that there would be such a day in the future, even if he knew there were risks in breaking through too quickly before, he would have made every effort to improve his level without hesitation!
After more than ten days of hard work, with the help of Spiritual Line Origin absorbing spiritual energy from heaven and earth at an incredible speed and refining two Holy Beast Cores, he broke through to second-rank Holy Realm.
However, this was still far from enough!
But he also knew that this was already his limit. After all, he had only broken through to first-rank Holy Realm half a month ago!
On this day, he sat cross-legged in the pavilion and then focused his consciousness inside his body.
These days, he had been busy with his breakthroughs and had forgotten about Spiritual Line Origin.
According to Aubree’s suggestion, once he broke through to Holy Realm, he should be able to sense the existence of Spiritual Line Origin.
So today happened to be free for him to give it a try.
