My Descendants Are My Power

On the other side, Justin was a stark contrast to William.

"Heavenly Heavy Tortoise Shell, Black Tortoise Protection Technique!"

As Justin moved forward, he activated the 'Heavenly Heavy Tortoise Shell,' a special ability he had acquired at Lake Heavenly Heart after Ethan had saved him from near-death experiences more than fifty times.

"Boom!"

At the early stages of Developing Skill, Justin was blown away by an opponent with nearly Competent Force.

However, equipped with his special ability and the secret Black Tortoise technique, he wiped the blood from his mouth, grinned, and charged back towards the wind power.

"He's tough. If he wasn't so focused on chasing my brother and hit me with full force, I'd be seriously injured."

Yet, he kept charging forward.

With each approach, the wind power's speed seemed to slow, gradually becoming agitated by Justin's persistence.

But with every injury, Justin's aura grew stronger.

Ethan watched quietly, gradually easing his worries.

Although Justin didn't possess William's strength or his array of traits, as long as he wasn't killed instantly, he would prove to be a formidable and tenacious opponent.

Over the years, while breaking through his limits, Justin had acquired a trait—[Growing Stronger with Battle].

As long as he wasn't killed, his strength would continue to increase with the duration of the fight and the number of life-threatening situations he faced.

His most terrifying traits were initially [Numb to Death] and [Walking with Death].

He had faced countless dangers in his life, extremely sensitive to crises, like an indestructible roach!

These three traits combined made him an incredibly difficult opponent for anyone to face.

"How is this possible?"

The Masked Man, flying with the force of Competent Force, sensed the battle he had left far behind and his expression soured.

"What's with these Blackwood people? What's going on?!"

He had lived for many years and had seen all the talents of Cloudview County.

He knew the fearsome reputation of the Blackwood youths, but seeing them in action was something else entirely.

William, whose combat power soared when he went berserk.

Justin, who navigated through deadly dangers like an unkillable roach, always managing to rise even stronger.

These two were beyond his comprehension.

"They're cultivating some strange psychic powers. No, there must be some powerful treasures on them!"

The Masked Man finally understood why these three young ones dared to compete for treasures and act so boldly.

"Run!"

The sense of danger in his heart grew stronger, and he increased his speed, even pulling out his top-grade ability weapon.

But just as he thought he had left George far behind, his expression turned ugly.

"Ancestors, aid me!"

George's roar came from behind.

In an instant, his aura surged from the early to the mid-stage of Developing Skill.

"Damn it!"

The Masked Man cursed under his breath.

He sensed a remnant soul of Competent Force within George, enhancing his natural energies.

He gritted his teeth.

"Do you really think a remnant soul of Competent Force can deal with me?"

He scoffed, but as he continued to flee, he could feel that Blackwood had more tricks up their sleeve.

As if to confirm his suspicions, George's aura continued to grow.

The Masked Man even heard an ancient voice behind him.

"What are you old folks waiting for? I'll protect George's body and meridians with my soul, letting him merge with some of your strength. Together, we are stronger!"

With that declaration, the Masked Man felt overwhelmed by the noise, so much so that it made him nauseous.

"Ha ha ha, good, after many years I only have about 20% of my strength from before my death."

"I've been wanting to meet The Oracle Chamber for a long time, and it's actually our first encounter."

"Let's get him!"

George's aura grew steadily, like wheat rising bit by bit.

His eyes sparkled with a golden light as his power surged from the mid-stage of Developing Skill to its peak... and then to half-step Competent Force, until reaching Competent Force itself!

Even more, he felt the presence of a soul from the peak of Competent Force, and even from the Out-of-Body stage...

The heavens formed a barrier, tightly enveloping him, even blocking the secret techniques of The Oracle Chamber with the once Azure Cloud Pavilion's divination methods!

"Impossible..."

Trapped in the sky within the pinnacle formation of the Azure Cloud Pavilion, he had nowhere to escape.

Turning around, he faced George with a face dripping with cold sweat.

At that moment, George walked through the air as if strolling in a garden, surrounded by a golden formation inscribed with divination symbols.

Twenty-eight elders appeared behind him, following George as if walking alongside him.

Suddenly.

The Masked Man from The Oracle Chamber remembered the Azure Cloud Pavilion from 130,000 years ago, as if seeing their peak moment when they once dominated the entire Cloudview County!

All the peaks of the Azure Cloud Pavilion, no, even the entire heritage of Cloudview County, were now embodied in George!

Fear descended.

He was at the early stage of Competent Force, and among the best, with countless techniques learned from The Oracle Chamber and other places.

He tried them all, enduring the brutal assault of the natural energies in the formation for half an hour.

But... how could he possibly contend against the entire heritage of Cloudview County?

All the techniques and martial arts, in the hands of those elders, reached a transcendent level, all using high-grade techniques, and their calculations were far deeper than those of the Masked Man.

The Masked Man could easily face multiple priests and even snatch the 'Rootless Soul Soil' from their hands, but now he was utterly at a loss.

George looked towards the Masked Man from afar.

Without exaggeration, at this moment, he was the strongest in Blackwood!

"Boom!"

The "Unfalling Azure Cloud," the most powerful secret technique of the Azure Cloud Pavilion, transformed into the Azure Cloud itself.

In George's hands, it had only reached a proficient level, but now, controlled by one of the oldest elders, it gathered the clouds from the sky to form another dimension.

Composed of clouds like deities, it struck the Masked Man from The Oracle Chamber with a punch, sending him crashing to the edge of the formation barrier.

"Ha ha ha!"

The Masked Man, spitting blood, saw George still advancing and laughed madly, "You're all doomed, I've taken the Rootless Soul Soil. In half an hour, even if you've masked your presence with your divination methods, the Druids will find this place, and perhaps they've already surrounded it!"

Hearing this.

George also laughed, somewhat mockingly, "You really got dazed by the hit, didn't you? We've been tracking you for two years; did you really think we in Blackwood weren't prepared?"

"What do you mean?"

The Masked Man, his body slumping, looked towards the west where smoke billowed and the forest turned into a sea of fire.

That was...

The direction of the Joy Beast Tribe!

George sneered, "Compared to the battle here, the destruction of a Druid tribe is far more eye-catching."
