Fighting the Ancient Woman Once Again.

'Hmm!'

A deep groan echoed from the depths of a crater. At its center, a human lay sprawled on the ground, dried blood staining the earth around him.

Slowly, he pushed himself into a sitting position, his eyes wandering for a moment before realization dawned on his face.

Lowering his gaze, he inspected the ghastly wound on his chest, watching as it healed at a visible speed.

"Huh! I guess I underestimated my enemy…" Su Yen muttered, turning his eyes toward the tomb-like palace in the distance.

"Even with the pagoda bloodline, these ancient experts are difficult to deal with." He furrowed his brow.

"How strong were they? Even their astral bodies are more powerful than me, despite my cultivation being raised by three realms."

As a Saint Realm expert, with his pagoda bloodline boosting his strength by three entire realms, Su Yen should have been among the strongest in this world—at least in the Ascension Realm.
