Ancient Tears BloodLine - Chapter 958

Chapter 958: Idiotic twins Chapter 958: Idiotic twins From MC’s Perspective: By the time I had fully stabilized my new strength, the sun had already dipped below the horizon, late-evening glow.

I took a deep breath, feeling the new surge of power within me.

This was the moment I had been waiting for.

Now that the breakthrough was complete, I needed to take stock of the changes.

The first thing I did was check my body.

The purple lightning seed had initiated a complete evolution inside me.

My internal organs, which had already been fortified through years of body cultivation, now felt even stronger, more resilient.

My meridians, once strained by the flow of powerful energy, were now wide and open, ready to handle more force.

The bones, already toughened from years of cultivation, now seemed nearly unbreakable.

I could feel their new sturdiness-an unshakable foundation enhanced by the seed’s power.

I shifted my attention to my dantian, and what I saw there took me by surprise.

The space within had expanded, growing larger than before.

At the center of it all was a small pool of liquified purple lightning essence, shimmering with power.

The purple lightning seed had taken root in this pool, pulsating gently as if it were alive, its presence a constant hum of energy within me.

Every beat of its power echoed through my body, filling me with a sense of overwhelming strength.

Yet, there were still traces of impurities on my skin-a thin layer of grime that clung to me.

It was to be expected.

This always happened with major breakthroughs, as the body expels unwanted toxins during its transformation.

I knew a cleansing was in order, but the feeling of my newly enhanced strength kept my mind buzzing with excitement.

What would Elder Ann have in store for me next?

She had been overseeing my progress for some time, and I had no doubt that she had something planned.

A faint smile tugged at the corners of my lips as I stood up, feeling lighter on my feet despite the newfound weight of power inside me.

I made my way over to the console to deactivate the chamber.

As I switched it off, I could see the world energy dissipating, almost evaporating before my eyes.

The concentrated power that had filled the chamber moments ago was gone, leaving the room in a calm stillness.

Once it was fully deactivated, I stepped out into the open air.

“Master,” I called out, spotting him immediately.

Austin stood before me, his eyes sharp, taking in the changes with a critical gaze.

“Good,” he said, nodding approvingly.

“Your purple lightning essence has reached the SSS-Elite Rank.

The purple lightning seed worked wonderfully.

Not only did it help you break through, but it also improved your purple lightning element talent.

Your element will now be even more powerful, more destructive.” His words were like a series of revelations, each one hitting me harder than the last.

I had felt the power inside me, but hearing him confirm it with such certainty made it all the more real.

“So it’s improved my talent as well,” I thought, the realization sinking in.

“The purple lightning seed truly is a remarkable treasure.” Austin’s eyes gleamed as he continued, “Take some time to rest.

I’ll summon you tomorrow.” I nodded, grateful not just for his guidance but for the treasure he had provided me.

“Thank you, Master,” I said earnestly, before turning and leaving the Golden Lightning Palace.

The path back was familiar-I had memorized it during my previous visits, so navigating it now was second nature.

The cool evening air brushed against my skin, a stark contrast to the heat of the chamber.

I walked with a renewed sense of purpose, each step grounding me more in my new reality.

But as I moved along, something caught my eye.

Two figures were approaching from the opposite direction, their pace casual but purposeful.

At first, I paid them little attention, but as we drew closer, it became clear-they were headed straight for me.

As I continued down the path, I noticed the distinctive Thunderbolt crests emblazoned on the chests of the two men approaching.

That symbol meant only one thing-they were faction members.

My mind immediately began to race.

What do they want?

I wondered, my instincts already telling me that this wasn’t a friendly encounter.

I attempted to walk past them, hoping to avoid unnecessary conflict.

But they moved in unison, stepping directly into my path, their intentions clear.

They weren’t here for pleasantries.

I stopped in my tracks, eyeing them closely.

As I took in their features, I realized they were twins identical in almost every way, save for their haircuts.

The one on the left had his black hair cropped short, while the other wore his a bit longer.

Their expressions were smug, as though they had already decided how this interaction was going to play out.

“Are you the new faction member, Zack Lockwood?” the black-haired warrior on the right asked, his voice sharp with an undercurrent of challenge.

“Yes, it’s me,” I replied, keeping my tone neutral, though I could already feel the tension rising.

“Wow, we finally met you.

But we’re wondering… are you really as strong as they say?” the twin on the left, with the short-cropped hair, chimed in, his tone mocking.

I smirked, unsurprised by their words.

Of course, I thought.

I knew people would come to test me eventually.

But I hadn’t expected to face two warriors at once.

Their arrogance suggested they underestimated me, which was fine by me, I preferred it that way.

I quickly assessed their energy levels.

They were both at Peak Stage SSS-Elite Rank, formidable opponents in their own right.

I glanced around the pathway, taking in our surroundings.

The place seemed deserted at first, but I could feel hidden eyes watching from the shadows, observing.

It was obvious these twins weren’t the only ones interested in seeing what I was capable of.

The faint rustle of leaves, the soft whispers of energy, there were others, cloaked in secrecy, watching the confrontation unfold.

One of the twins, emboldened by the silence, sneered.

“What, are you scared?” They both burst into mocking laughter, their voices echoing down the path, confident and cocky.

My eyes narrowed, and I felt the shift within me as my demeanor hardened.

My patience for this nonsense was wearing thin.

Scared?

They had no idea.

My perception ability, heightened from my recent breakthrough, surged to life.

The area around me sharpened in clarity as my senses extended, giving me a precise read of everything and everyone within range.

The moment I locked onto their positions, I made my move.

Swoosh!

Without warning, I vanished from where I stood, reappearing directly in front of them with lightning speed.

The smirks hadn’t even left their faces when I clenched my fists and struck.

A sharp right to the first twin’s face, followed immediately by a left to the second.

The impact was brutal.

Boom!

Boom!

The sound of my blows echoed in the evening air, as both warriors sent flying backwards, their bodies crashing into the ground with a heavy stud.

Their faces were bloodied, deep red streaks running down their cheeks as bruises swelled beneath the broken skin.

Eyes glazed, they swayed on their feet for a moment before collapsing, hitting the ground with a dull thud.

Both fainted on the spot, utterly spent.

Gasp!

A sharp gasp cut through the tension, followed by a series of hushed, nervous whispers.

The crowd was frozen, murmuring in awe and fear.

I scanned the sea of shocked faces briefly, noting the shadowy figures lurking just out of sight, before turning away.

Without another word, I resumed my walk, my boots clicking rhythmically against the pavement as I headed towards my residence.

I knew they had seen everything those who preferred to stay hidden in the darkness.

Hopefully, the clear display of strength would be enough to keep them at bay.

I had no interest in further confrontations.

But if they dared, they would face the same fate.

From a nearby balcony, Austin observed the entire scene with a cold, calculating gaze.

His lips curled into a small, approving smile.

He nodded to himself.

Zack’s composure, his ruthless precision-it had impressed him.

“He’s ready,” Austin muttered under his breath, a faint gleam of respect in his eyes.

And then, from the shadows, they emerged-silent figures who had been watching from the darkness, cloaked in anonymity.

Their eyes widened in shock as they surveyed the aftermath of the brutal encounter.

The two warriors-both formidable SSS-ELITE Rank Peak Stage fighters-lay motionless on the ground, their bloodied faces a testament to the sheer power of the one who had bested them.

The crowd of hidden observers, once so confident in the strength of the fallen warriors, now found themselves re-evaluating everything they thought they knew.

Whispers spread like wildfire among them, as they exchanged uneasy glances.

The newcomer, previously underestimated, had just shattered their expectations.

This wasn’t just another challenger; this was someone whose power defied rank, someone who could dismantle even the strongest without breaking a sweat.

Fear and respect began to swirl in their minds, blending together into a potent new understanding of who they were dealing with.
