Chapter 427

…

Hengluo Sea, the Sun Island…

A great fight that was worth being written down in the history was happening like a raging fire, and its participants were all the true peak realm warriors of the Endless Sea.

The two Demon Kings Apollyon and Chemosh, Nate Barrington of the Sea, the Sun God and Moon God of the Three Gods Sect, and the new face of the Endless Sea, Berkan Lenoir of Alaister family.

Hotshots of the Endless Sea gathered. Not only that, an innumerable number of strong warriors on the land and undersea came there using their secret treasures or the Teleporting Formation, or any other means that could bring them there as fast as possible, after they sensed the strange change in heaven and earth.

Many people knew that this battle would turn the impasse of the Endless Sea upside down. Perhaps, after this battle, the Endless Sea’s destiny would be determined ultimately.

On the island, Leylin was sending attacks after attacks with the mysterious giant sword, as Apollyon fought with Nate.

Although his attacks weren’t of lethal force for someone like Apollyon but Leylin was a detrimental factor for Apollyon being unable to stand his ground against Nate Barrington. Although the two hotshots were both at Third Sky of Spirit Realm, with Nate just a bit more powerful and with the assistance of Leylin’s unorthodox and astonishingly powerful manoeuvre, Apollyon was losing ground.

Apollyon couldn’t help but be pressurized because he knew that Owen Caddel should be here soon.

Although Leylin was attacking from the sidelines, he wasn’t using his full force exactly because Owen Caddell hadn’t come yet.

Leylin was obviously guarding against this real master from the Caddell family, who had his name famous in the Endless Sea for so many years.

“Here he comes.”

The Moon God who was also attacking Apollyon and harassing him amidst his battle suddenly sighed, looking at the general direction of the Tuta Sea. Moonlight in her body suddenly condensed.

The name of Owen Caddell had been famous for so many years on the Endless Sea; the power of the Caddell family in Endless Sea was so tremendous. No one on the Endless Sea dared to look down on him, or knew what this martial art addict would do.

A faint light appeared from far away. At first, it was like the light of a firefly, not bright, but really flickering.

However, after three seconds, that faint light bloomed like a flame. Seconds later, that halo could even cover the sky and hinder the earth. Unexpectedly, it made the dark Qi above the Sun Island disperse.

Inside the brilliant halo, an old man with senile, gloomy face slowly appeared.

He was wearing simple green warrior clothing. His gray hair was tied into a chignon, and his eyes bright. He didn’t appear to be a good-looking man, with flashy and fierce markings, or any precious accessories. There was nothing majestic about Owen Caddell’s appearance.

Quite the contrary, he looked more like an average old man. Without his bright pupils, many people couldn’t imagine that such an appearance belonged to the famous Owen in the Endless Sea.

Tyler’s face was solemn. He clasped his fist to greet him before the old man descended to the island. “Master Caddell.”

Charlotte was standing in the air, not moving an inch. She seemed to be seriously assessing him. As she had sealed herself for a thousand years inside a meteorite, she was much older than the latter. Although her current competence wasn’t as strong as his, she wouldn’t humble her status to fawn over this hotshot from the Caddell family.

“Hello, Cult Master Cyrus,” Owen nodded. His face was calm while the light in his eyes dimmed.

After exchanging greetings with Tyler, he immediately shifted to the earth-shaking fight on the Sun Island while frowning.

As his eyes caught the sight of the War Devil, he couldn’t even hide his surprise. He was dumbstruck for a while before he started to search for the target.

His eyes eventually stopped at Leylin. “You are Berkan Lenoir?”

Leylin loosened his grip on his sword and bowed with courtesy, “Yes. Junior greets Lord Caddell.”

“Not bad, kid,” Owen nodded, “When I was at your age, I had just the cultivation base of Earth Realm. You’re now at the Sky Realm, and can even use some unknown means to reach the Spirit Realm. Not bad, really.”

“The Lord here is overpraising me.” Leylin smiled with goodwill.

Although Leylin wasn’t sure about his real intention but with Nate Barrington, War Devil, Charlotte Tyler all here, together with the level eight demonic beast King of Demonic Insects on his shoulders, if the latter attacked him, Leylin could leave everything else and escape immediately.

As they saw Owen arrive, Chemosh, Nate and Apollyon became more cautious, even though they were in the middle of the battle.

Everybody knew of Owen’s competence. If he took action and joined one side, the other side wouldn’t be comfortable. His presence would change the whole picture. Thus, everybody was saving their strengths to deal with him in case he decided to join any side.

Chemosh was also careful. Under the wanton bombarding of the War Devil, he revealed his dangerous features.

Different from Apollyon and Nate, the puppet didn’t care who Owen was. A. I. Chip controlled it to urge his full force to deal with him, so he only remembered this, maliciously attacking the other without leaving him a leeway. His brutal, wild attacks aimed to kill Chemosh, forcing him to pay full attention to their battle.

The whole scene seemed to froze as everyone was waiting for Caddell to take action. As Apollyon was about to open his mouth to advise him to act against a dangerous and heavenly genius like Leylin, an amethyst sword flew out from Owen’s sleeve, purple light radiating from it. Beams of purple light were everywhere, drifting away all of the ghostly clouds.

A vicious current was generated in the middle of the purple clouds, with mirages of beautiful, glorious fairylands appearing in them. In the mirages that could quiet down people’s minds, the hostile aura was strengthened strangely.

Wilted, yellow leaves fell piece after piece from the purple clouds. They were made from condensed energy, which was thick like a shower and sharp like swords.

The torrential dark Qi on the Sun Island was diluted vastly when the leaves fell. They disappeared from the sky over the Sun Island at the speed that naked eye could observe.

The Amethyst Sword moved slowly. In the purple halo, a vicious current locked on Apollyon, slowly approaching him.

The heavy, vicious aura flooded the Endless Sea, gradually gathering on Owen’s body. His aura became chilling to the bone. Moreover, it was getting more intimidating over time.

Boom Boom!

Thunderclap arose in the void, and lightning danced. The halo created by the Amethyst Sword had unexpectedly driven the strange change in heaven and earth. Inside the lightning, Owen’s figure was fading away gradually, until he completely disappeared.

The aura on his body suddenly became invisible. It seemed like he had never come here. No one could use his Soul Consciousness to detect his location.

Everyone was more anxious after the old man disappeared. They released the protective halo and discreetly stayed alert.

Owen Caddell’s Shadowless Path was famous all over the Endless Sea. When he was totally out of people’s sight, it was the moment he really wanted to take action. Everyone knew this.

The Shadowless Path was the profound divine ability that Caddell had comprehended. Once he used it, his essence Qi, spirit and soul would be hidden away, making him completely disappear in the world. No one could detect him in hiding. Sometimes, his opponents got killed before they realized when he took action.

The most formidable feature of the Shadowless Path was the murderous intention, which was really magical.

Many enemies of the Caddell family had died unknowingly. In some cases, they were killed while cultivating. Until they died, they didn’t know that Owen was there to kill them!

The Shadowless Path helped Owen swagger in the Endless Sea. He was the character that planted fear everywhere. Enemies of the Caddell Family had to live in fear every day, not knowing when and why they were killed. Perhaps, it would happen when they were having lunch, when they were asleep, or even when they were talking with the others. Their deaths were sudden and without any known causes.

“Be careful.”

Tyler couldn’t help but remind Leylin with a voice transmission, his face solemn. He was afraid even during this major crisis Owen Caddell’s main target was Leylin.

A year ago when almost all major forces joined hands to initiate a manhunt against Leylin, they definitely had the unspoken support of both Caddell family and Martial Palace.

There is nothing these two forces would fear more than to see Leylin grow uncontrollably. His achievement, his realm, his ability and his means are all absolutely astonishing, leave all else if Leylin wasn’t affiliated with the Three God Sect even Tyler would fire on all cylinders to suppress such a genius.

Leylin isn’t just a mere junior but instead a legitimate threat to all who stand at the very peak of the Endless Sea throne. Just to put in perspective the number one genius before Leylin emerged was Zean Davies from the Martial Palace. He was once in a lifetime genius of the whole Endless Sea, the number one of the power ranking and a legit Nirvana realm expert.

All these achievements are dazzling but if one were to compare him to Leylin, the depravity is too glaring. Zean is just a mere Nirvana realm expert at the First Sky while Leylin is actually a Third Sky of Sky realm warrior! And to top it all off Leylin is actually younger than him!

Leylin is a total five small realms higher than him, and in terms of combat powers Leylin could even compare against a Spirit Realm.

If these two’s accolades were to be compared it’s a difference between heaven and sky. Obviously Owen Caddell, one of the most powerful man of the Endless Sea didn’t appreciate someone so monstrous growing right under his nose.

That is why when he disappeared into the void with his infamous Shadowless Path, everyone’s heart beat quickened considerably.

Leylin himself wasn’t standing idly, inwardly he already started to make contingency plans and became alert, ‘ A. I. Chip, Affective immediately decrease the commanding output on War Devil, opt to auto pilot. Use all remaining computing data and try to find Owen Caddell.’

[Beep! Task Established…Scanning…. Target not found!]

‘Of course it’s not so easy.’ Leylin wasn’t disheartened, rather than forcing an automatic search he started to manually operate A. I. Chip scan search.

‘Use infrared scanning.’

[Beep! Scanning….Heat sensors negative, thermal imaging negative…Target not found!]

‘Use spatial displacement to conjure the target.’

[Beep! Scanning…. Target not found!]

‘Damn it! Any traces of Profound Qi movement?’

[Beep! Scanning…. Target not found!]

‘Search through the whole database of each and every Marital spirit and Martial skill to find any similarities to Shadowless Path and retrace the effect to the point of origin.’

[Beep! Task established! Search completed! 8 matches found, only 3 partial match with 10% similarities acceptable. Reverse analysis begins.. Estimated time: 469 hours. Success rate to find Owen Caddell: 15%]

“He’s truly tricky.” Leylin couldn’t help but furrow his eyebrows together. Without knowing the location of an extremely powerful hidden expert Leylin just can’t rest calmly.

Leylin rerun the data of the A. I. Chip and used various other modifications to find the target but it was very difficult for him to find Owen’s exact location.

It’s not that the A. I. Chip is incapable but rather it doesn’t have any source of reference or any contingency in plan for such a situation.

All the computing based on Martial skills would take a huge amount of time, something he doesn’t have the leisure of. Even if he did somehow complete the simulation, the chances of locating him is rather dim. The life’s worth Martial knowledge of a top level expert like Owen Caddell isn’t bread and butter, even for Leylin he would need an extensive amount of data, research and time to hack his technique’s real mechanism.

Leylin also could help but feel irritated, although his fighting prowess is similar to a Spirit rank expert but ultimately the fact remains that he isn’t one actually. Leylin hasn’t experienced the purification of a higher form of mental energy and neither has his A. I. Chip upgraded to decipher the infamous martial technique of one of the overlords of Endless Sea.

‘Hmmm.’ Leylin’s mind was running at full speed as the fight before him also fell into a thrilling stalemate.

Suddenly as Leylin heart started to beat faster the world slowed down before him. Everything seemed dull and colorless before Leylin’s eyes as he fell into an unknown trance, although it was just for a moment his pupils instantly radiated with a blinding light as his head titled towards the sky.

Although the whole world was grey and without any color, the stars above seemed to have found some way to brighten his mind and broaden his prospective. The star lights were like a mirage seeping into the world and into Leylin, breaking through some sort of barrier from within.

“A.I.Chip! Through the coordinates of Star Martial Spirit set the Star Constellation as a point of reference. Set the void as the space plane and find materialization of vitality force within. Burn the Immortal Blood to increase the detection range and resonate with his bloodforce.” Commanded Leylin as he simultaneously closed his eyes to feel the magical embedment and supernatural transformation inside his soul.

[Beep! Task Established! Setting new parameters…..Searching… Beep! Signature position! Target located.]

An azure hologram of grid coordinates appeared right before Leylin pupils with a glaringly red dot. Leylin didn’t turn his head to look but finally he was able to find Owen!

Owen’s technique which has terrorized the whole Endless Sea and killed uncountable enemy before they could even react has been solved by Leylin!

‘I was right! This pressure! This sense of urgency, Only this could have helped me break through the close yet far bottleneck towards the Spirit Realm.’ Leylin clenched his fist with excitement pulsing through his vein, he can feel a change ready to erupt through his body but.

Leylin again looked at the red dot and could now feel the indifferent gaze of Owen Caddell. Leylin used his bloodline force to suppress his advancement.

‘With such a variant on the field, it would be fatal to breakthrough now. This isn’t some protagonist story, advancing amidst battle. Although I could breakthrough without much issue and seamlessly but it would incapacitate me for a moment which would be more than enough to send me to astral world.’ Leylin thought as he suppressed his breakthrough and focused on the fight before him. After the end of this confrontation, he would have more than enough time to advance in peace and study his breakthrough more extensively.
