At this moment, Billy was indeed still within the barrier.
As Rylee Fritz had guessed, he hadn’t managed to get far before the barrier net had formed.
With his current strength, it was difficult to forcibly break through a barrier formed by a third-rank Comprehending Empyrean Realm.
However, this didn’t affect him much. He found a random spot, sat down cross-legged, and began to heal.
Although his injuries were not light, his bloodline power was now very strong. Coupled with the Heart Method of the Heaven Book, he recovered in less than an hour.
After sitting and adjusting his breath for a while, Billy emerged!
He then looked towards the outside of the barrier, his eyes narrowing slightly.
There were quite a few people!
What he didn’t know was that during his healing process, the Phoenix Clan and Cloudsoaring Palace had recalled all their people from the Bonded Clan.
Then, Rylee Fritz had summoned all the Comprehending Empyrean Realm experts to wait outside the barrier.
It didn’t stop there. He also sent a message to Cloudsoaring Palace, explaining the situation with Nikhil Orozco and Elder Kade.
Cloudsoaring Palace was equally furious and sent ten more Comprehending Empyrean Realm experts within less than half an hour. Leading them was an elder of the third-rank Comprehending Empyrean Realm.
Thus, Cloudsoaring Palace had dispatched about seventy to eighty percent of their high-end combat power.
Now, outside the barrier stood about thirty Comprehending Empyrean Realm experts. The highest was third-rank Comprehending Empyrean Realm, and the lowest was first-rank Comprehending Empyrean Realm.
This lineup was somewhat terrifying for Billy!
In single combat, he feared no one. But being besieged by more than thirty Comprehending Empyrean Realm experts at once, his chances of winning were slim!
“Billy, why is it that every time I wake up from seclusion, you’re almost always in a desperate situation?” At this moment, Purple Spirit’s voice echoed in Billy’s mind.
“Purple Spirit?” Billy shifted his consciousness into his sea of knowledge. “You’re awake?”
“Did I sleep for a long time this time?” Purple Spirit yawned and asked.
“It was indeed quite long!” Billy responded.
The last time Purple Spirit appeared was inside the Red Ridge. After devouring the Spiritual Line Origin there, she had been in seclusion until now.
“Billy, is White Feather also in seclusion?” Purple Spirit continued to ask.
“Yes!” Billy responded. “Purple Spirit, first tell me about your current combat strength. Can you fight against Comprehending Empyrean Realm opponents?”
“Billy, your question stumps me. I don’t even know what Comprehending Empyrean Realm means.” Purple Spirit responded. “We’ll only know after trying.”
“Alright!” Billy’s mouth twitched slightly. “Then you better not come out later. I’ll take them into Heavenly Xuan Space.”
“Has that young lady in Heavenly Xuan Space come out of seclusion?” Purple Spirit asked again.
“I’m not sure either!” Billy shook his head. “Whether she’s out or not, I’ll take them in. Otherwise, with so many people here, I have no confidence!”
“Don’t you still have me?” Purple Spirit replied.
Meanwhile, Rylee Fritz led twenty to thirty people into the barrier.
“Are you willing to show yourself?” Rylee Fritz looked at Billy and spoke coldly.
“If you hand over the ninth volume of the Heaven Book now, I can pretend nothing happened. The Phoenix Clan can continue to exist. How about it?” Billy replied calmly.
“Are you joking with me?” Rylee Fritz glanced at Billy.
“This is your last chance. Once it’s gone, it’s gone!” Billy continued.
“Kid, you dare kill our young master? Your life is mine today!” The third-rank Comprehending Empyrean Realm expert from Cloudsoaring Palace spoke in a deep voice.
“Cloudsoaring Palace people?” Billy smiled faintly. “I was planning to visit Cloudsoaring Palace soon. Now it seems unnecessary…”
“Hope you can still laugh later!” The third-rank Comprehending Empyrean Realm expert turned to Rylee Fritz. “Chief, there’s no need to waste words with him. Let’s do it! Kill him and take his storage ring; we can talk afterward!”
“Alright!” Rylee Fritz nodded and waved his hand. “Do it, kill him!”
Whoosh! Whoosh!
In the next moment, about twenty people attacked simultaneously, their assaults as fierce as thunderbolts surging towards Billy’s position.
All those who attacked were of Comprehending Empyrean Realm cultivation and didn’t hold back much. The entire barrier was filled with raging winds and surging waves, a scene of utter destruction.
At the same time, Billy moved as well.
Since these people sought death, he wouldn’t be merciful. In a few blinks of an eye, he activated three domains in succession.
Then, with full strength, he slashed out a Sky Burial Blade, tearing an arc-shaped rift in the void.
The blade light collided with the opponents’ attacks, producing a thunderous explosion. The void instantly collapsed; the barrier couldn’t withstand such a level of impact and disintegrated into nothingness.
The blade light continued its momentum, flashing past several people. Instantly, five or six bodies were cut in half and fell from mid-air.
After one slash, Billy didn’t stop. With a flip of his wrist, he slashed out another Sky Burial Blade.
“Don’t be arrogant!” Rylee Fritz frowned and shouted while punching towards the blade light.
After a loud noise, both Billy and his opponent were thrown back a thousand feet away, evenly matched.
“Die!” The elder from Cloudsoaring Palace shouted as he charged towards Billy with killing intent radiating from him. Five or six others followed behind him.
At this moment, a purple sword shot out from Billy’s body like a purple lightning bolt towards the third-rank Comprehending Empyrean Realm elder.
“Um?!”
The elder didn’t expect Billy to have such a move and wasn’t well-prepared. Sensing danger, he instinctively raised his hand and sent out an imprint.
The sword light flashed, blood spurted out, and an arm flew into the air. The elder groaned and retreated several hundred feet with an unpleasant expression.
Before it even began properly, he had lost an arm; his anger was imaginable.
“Attack together! Kill him!” A first-rank Comprehending Empyrean Realm old woman shouted as she raised her hand to strike.
However, before she could form her attack, the purple sword transformed by Purple Spirit had already flashed towards her.
Sensing danger, the old woman’s pupils shrank instantly as she hurriedly raised her hand to form a barrier wall in front of her.
She clearly underestimated Purple Spirit. The purple sword passed through the barrier wall as if it were nothing and flashed past her body. Instantly, a head flew into the air.
After killing the old woman with one strike, Purple Spirit didn’t stop. She transformed into human form and flashed towards another elder.
After a few rounds, she had a basic understanding of her combat strength. Even without using human-sword unity and at full strength, she could contend with second-rank Comprehending Empyrean Realm opponents.
It seemed that the energy from the Spiritual Line Origin in Red Ridge was quite nourishing!
On the other side, Billy also attacked again. After one slash, seven or eight bodies fell from mid-air in pieces.
Most of these opponents were first-rank or second-rank Comprehending Empyrean Realm cultivators. In the area covered by three domains’ overlaying effects, even if they joined forces, it was hard to withstand Billy’s full-strength slash.
Next, Dark Puppet appeared again. His target was naturally those souls floating in mid-air; they were all great supplements.
Although those souls still had some combat power left, they were clearly not Dark Puppet’s match. After one round of combat, they were ready to be devoured.
Rylee Fritz attacked again with a mysterious imprint filled with overwhelming momentum towards Billy. The void collapsed immediately after.
Billy didn’t confront him head-on. After slashing out a blade light with his crazy knife, he quickly dodged to the side.
Rylee Fritz didn’t stop and chased after him with three or four men and women following behind him.
However, halfway through the chase, Billy disappeared again…
