The Blooming of the Second Flower
Maya looked at Tobias gratefully and said, "Thank you, Tobias. I’ll take my leave first. You guys continue..."
She ca in this ti to find Leon and didn’t have ti to waste on Dario. After saying goodbye to the two of them, Maya followed the faint traces of Leon’s aura and flew toward the eastern region of the Martial Emperor Tomb.
The sea of blood stretched endlessly beneath her.
Cold winds swept across the crimson surface, carrying the scent of rust and ancient death. Countless broken weapons floated among the waves like forgotten relics from an era long buried beneath history.
Maya’s blue robes fluttered softly behind her.
A ring of pure water revolved around her body as she flew. The water mana moved naturally, responding to her thoughts. Occasionally, blood-red waves would rise from below, but before they could approach, the circulating water instantly purified the surrounding space.
Her expression remained calm.
Yet beneath that calm exterior, worry slowly grew.
Leon had entered before everyone else.
Days had already passed.
Inside a place as dangerous as the Martial Emperor Tomb, even a single day could determine life and death.
"Leon..."
She quietly whispered his na.
For so reason, the more she searched, the more uneasy she beca.
Soon, the coastline appeared.
Towering black cliffs rose from the sea like giant blades.
And there—
A massive corpse lay sprawled across the shore.
The sharp fang karken.
Its enormous body stretched for hundreds of ters. Half its flesh had already begun decomposing under the corrosive energy of the tomb.
Even in death, the terrifying pressure of the ancient beast lingered.
Maya landed beside the corpse.
Her eyes examined the battlefield carefully.
The surrounding terrain had been devastated.
Mountains had collapsed.
The coastline had shattered.
Deep sword marks extended across the landscape.
Every trace pointed toward an overwhelming battle.
She crouched down and gently touched one of the sword scars.
A familiar aura remained.
A faint smile appeared on her face.
"Leon."
Relief filled her heart.
The traces left behind clearly belonged to him.
If he had been able to kill a beast of this level, then he was likely still alive.
Tobias’s judgnt had been correct.
Without wasting another mont, Maya rose into the sky again and continued flying toward the distant mountains.
Far away.
Hidden deep within a secluded Spiritual Mana Powered Cave.
Leon remained completely unaware of everything happening outside.
At this mont, he was undergoing his final transformation.
Three days had passed in the outside world.
However, inside the secluded pocket dinsion where he cultivated, an entire month had already gone by.
A month of constant tempering.
A month of endless refinent.
A month of pain that would have broken ordinary cultivators countless tis over.
Yet Leon endured it all.
His long black hair drifted weightlessly around him.
Purple light flickered within his eyes even though they remained closed.
His entire body sat suspended above the dried Mana Lake.
Golden runes covered every inch of his skin.
Each rune glowed with ancient power.
These were not ordinary runes.
They were Pri Dragon runes.
The symbols hidden within the precious bone he had obtained.
The symbols represented strength.
Vitality.
Dominance.
Perfection.
For an entire month, Leon had used those runes to forge his body repeatedly.
His muscles, bones, blood, organs, and ridians had all been refined countless tis.
Every flaw had been removed.
Every weakness had been strengthened.
Every imperfection had been shattered and rebuilt.
At this mont, his body resembled a divine weapon forged by heaven itself.
Not excessively bulky.
Not exaggerated.
Instead, every muscle line appeared perfectly balanced.
His shoulders were broad.
His chest was firm and powerful.
His waist remained lean.
Every movent contained explosive power hidden beneath complete control.
Even his skin carried a faint golden glow.
The closer he approached completion, the more obvious the transformation beca.
The surrounding space trembled continuously.
Golden dragon phantoms occasionally appeared behind him before disappearing once more.
The Pri Dragon runes continued circulating.
Again.
And again.
And again.
Until finally—
Leon slowly opened his eyes.
A sharp light flashed across them.
"It’s ti for the last one..."
His voice echoed softly throughout the cave.
A rare trace of excitent appeared in his usually calm expression.
After an entire month of cultivation, he could finally feel the final barrier approaching.
Within the depths of his spiritual core, enormous changes were taking place.
The first Purple Lotus of Great Principal had already fully blood.
Its petals radiated endless brilliance.
Every petal contained profound truths of cultivation.
Every petal represented a deeper understanding of power.
And now—
Beside it—
A second flower slowly began erging.
At first, it appeared only as a tiny bud.
Then the bud expanded.
Golden and purple light intertwined.
Mana surged through his body like a raging ocean.
The flower slowly unfolded.
One petal.
Then another.
Then another.
Each petal seed carved from pure starlight.
Countless runes flowed across their surface.
As the flower continued blooming, Leon felt his soul undergoing a complete transformation.
The sensation was indescribable.
His consciousness expanded.
His perception sharpened.
It felt as though the entire world had beco clearer.
The movent of mana.
The flow of wind.
The pulse of life itself.
Everything beca visible.
A powerful wave of energy surged upward from the depths of his spiritual core.
The second Purple Lotus of Great Principal finally blood completely.
The mont it did—
Boom!
A terrifying pressure erupted throughout the entire pocket dinsion.
Mountains shook violently.
Ancient trees bent under the pressure.
The heavens themselves seed to tremble.
Leon felt a powerful stream of energy rushing through every corner of his body.
The feeling was intoxicating.
His soul felt lighter than ever before.
His entire existence seed to have evolved.
"Ah... This feeling is too aweso..."
Leon couldn’t help muttering.
The sensation was like finally breaking free from invisible chains that had restrained him for years.
Everything felt different.
Everything felt better.
The entire Spiritual Mana Powered Cave erupted with dazzling light.
Boom...
Leon’s clothes instantly exploded with a loud bang, revealing perfect muscles.
Golden runes shone brilliantly across his body.
Every rune pulsed like a living star.
The newly forged Golden Physic of Pri Dragon had finally reached completion.
Its defensive power had beco astonishing.
Its recovery abilities had beco terrifying.
His vitality surged endlessly.
Even severe injuries would likely recover rapidly now.
At the sa ti, his cultivation also began rising.
The second Purple Lotus continuously absorbed energy.
Yet it wasn’t enough.
Far from enough.
Like a starving beast, it demanded more.
Leon imdiately understood what needed to happen.
Without hesitation, he activated his cultivation.
Boom!
The entire Spiritual Mana Powered Cave shook.
Countless streams of ancient mana rushed toward him.
The vast accumulation gathered over tens of thousands of years began converging above his head.
A gigantic vortex ford.
The vortex spun faster and faster.
Mountains trembled.
Ancient spiritual herbs swayed violently.
The sky darkened.
Then—
The endless torrent of mana descended.
It poured into Leon’s body like a heavenly river.
His ridians absorbed everything greedily.
His spiritual core expanded continuously.
The second Purple Lotus beca brighter and brighter.
The energy flow continued for hours.
Then days.
Ti lost aning.
Only cultivation remained.
Only evolution remained.
Only strength remained.
Leon silently absorbed everything.
The ancient mana accumulated throughout countless years gradually disappeared.
The Mana Lake dried further.
The surrounding spiritual energy weakened.
The pocket dinsion itself seed exhausted.
Finally—
The last stream of mana entered his body.
Silence returned.
Leon’s aura stabilized.
A faint smile appeared on his face.
He could clearly feel the difference.
He had successfully stepped into the Pinnacle Realm.
Not rely touched its threshold.
Not rely glimpsed it.
He had truly entered it.
The power flowing through his body far surpassed anything he possessed before.
However, he imdiately sensed another problem.
This place belonged to a Sage Realm expert’s pocket dinsion.
The laws inside were unique.
If he fully released his cultivation now, the dinsional laws might imdiately expel him from the Martial Emperor Tomb.
Therefore, Leon quickly suppressed his aura.
The newly advanced cultivation remained hidden beneath layers of control.
Only then did he finally relax.
The cave had beco completely silent.
The once vibrant Mana Lake had vanished.
The countless years of accumulated energy had been thoroughly absorbed.
Leon slowly lowered himself to the ground.
His eyes opened completely.
A satisfied smile appeared on his face.
Everything had gone even better than expected.
The Pri Dragon runes.
The Golden Physic of Pri Dragon.
The second Purple Lotus of Great Principal.
The breakthrough into the Pinnacle Realm.
Every objective had been completed successfully.
Leon slowly opened his eyes with a happy smile on his face. He looked around and saw that the Mana Lake had been sucked dry. He looked at his clothes and saw that they had been completely destroyed.
