Chapter 534: Barbara's Crazy Breakthrough

But Your Highness, the Holy Pool has been taken over by Adel's people; I'm afraid I can't get in, and as for you, given your current situation, her people probably won't let you in either.

Dorothea worried.

She saw that Barbara's situation was not good.

Where is the Holy Pool?

Lu Xun asked.

This Holy Pool seems to possess purifying energy, capable of washing away all negative curses on one's body.

Deep within the palace, Adel's power has been growing stronger in recent years, and with His Majesty in seclusion, she has already treated that place as her private property.

Dorothea said.

Is it a transparent pool shaped like a leaf?

Lu Xun asked again.

Yes, that's right!

Dorothea nodded.

Then it's settled, Barbara; I'll take you there.

Lu Xun decided to take action.

Lord Lu Xun, that area is guarded by a Nine Realms expert...

Dorothea couldn't help but worry.

It's fine; it's only a Nine Realms expert.

Lu Xun said calmly.

Astra's overall strength is comparable to that of Yao Xing; although it's stronger than Lan Xing, it currently lacks a Ten Realm expert.

As long as there is no Ten Realm expert, Lu Xun has nothing to fear.

In fact, even if there were a Ten Realm expert, Lu Xun would still not fear.

With his current strength, taking Barbara to the Holy Pool is no problem.

Here, he can go all out.

Let's go, Barbara.

Yeah!

Barbara jumped into Lu Xun's arms.

This action made Dorothea curious.

Just who is Lu Xun, that he can be so intimate with Barbara?

Lu Xun held Barbara and activated Space Stealth, heading toward the Holy Pool.

Over these two years under the stars, the several girls have made considerable progress.

They have all broken through to the Six Realms.

If it weren't for the need to comprehend the power of heaven and earth after breaking through the Six Realms, given their talent, they would already be in the Seven Realms.

There's no way around it,

the heaven and earth within the Inner Space are incomplete.

Besides them, Fu Yue, Fu Xue, and Lu Xueqi have also made progress.

After returning, Lu Xun's strength has further increased.

His Martial Dao remains stuck at the peak of the Six Realms, and the return has been stored away.

But his Immortal Dao has broken through to the Seven Realms, granting him a formidable Primordial Spirit.

After breaking through to the Seven Realms, Lu Xun encountered an extremely terrifying Heavenly Tribulation.

This Heavenly Tribulation is more than ten times fiercer than on Lan Xing, aimed straight at Lu Xun's life.

Besides the Heavenly Tribulation, there are also strange entities like Heavenly Demons and Heart Demons.

Fortunately, Lu Xun's strength is immensely powerful, and he easily withstood it.

Aodaili also broke through to the Six Realms and then surged up several more levels.

Lu Xun's magical cultivation has risen all the way, reaching the peak of the Eight Realms.

Lu Xun's space magic has become extraordinarily powerful.

The palace contains numerous barriers.

Lu Xun sneaked all the way, passing through many barriers.

But as he neared the Holy Pool, he was still stopped by a barrier.

Someone's here!

Quick, activate the barrier!

This directly triggered the alarm.

More barriers were activated.

Moreover, strong attackers arrived.

Lu, force your way through!

Barbara does not intend to show herself.

In her current state, she does not want to be seen.

In fact, even if she appeared now, it would be of little use.

Here everyone is Adel's people; if she showed herself, they would never believe her, and might even take the opportunity to attack her.

Alright.

Lu Xun activated Primal Ancient Blood, transforming into a Chaos Giant Dragon, and charged straight for the Holy Pool.

Those who came to stop him were directly swept away in a large area.

"Frost Domain!"

At the critical moment, the Nine Realm stationed in the palace took action.

This Nine Realm turned out to also be Adele's person.

As soon as he acted, he used the Frost Domain, trapping Lu Xun in an icy world.

"Roar~"

But,

Accompanied by the roar of the Chaos Dragon.

His Frost Domain was actually shattered directly by Lu Xun.

"How could he be this strong!"

That Nine Realm was greatly shocked and lost color.

After Lu Xun shattered his Frost Domain, he didn't waste time but in one go broke through the Holy Pool's barrier.

"Go, Barbara!"

"Mm!"

Barbara dove into the Holy Pool.

The Chaos Dragon that Lu Xun transformed into coiled above it, protecting the Holy Pool beneath it.

"His target is the Holy Pool!"

"Quick, call for reinforcements!"

The palace was in utter chaos.

Reinforcements arrived quickly.

That turned out to be another Nine Realm.

The strength of Astra Star is indeed formidable.

Even though many strong ones are exploring the nodes, there are still plenty of guardian Nine Realms.

Lu Xun guarded above the Holy Pool, blocking all who came.

"Using Chaos Power, yet he isn't suppressed by the Spirit Star!"

Lu Xun discovered a pleasant surprise.

"After using Chaos Power, the suppression from the Spirit Star became much weaker."

"But if demonic power is used, one is still suppressed."

"This Chaos Power is practically an innate power to break seals."

"The Primordial Ancient Blood combined with Chaos Power can naturally be used as well."

"In the Holy Pool."

Barbara soaked in it, and the curse on her body was being swiftly purified.

"The function of this Holy Pool is to purify all negative effects, including curses."

"No matter how powerful the curse, as long as one soaks in the Holy Pool for a period, it can be purified."

"The Astra royal family possesses curses as a great weapon."

"Naturally they would not let this weapon threaten themselves."

"That is why the guards here are so strict."

"And there is a powerful barrier."

"Who would have thought it would be forcibly broken through by Lu Xun's unscrupulous attack."

"Lu, I'm healed!"

"Just an hour later, Barbara leapt out of the Holy Pool."

"The curse within her body has been completely cleared."

"It's Barbara!"

"It's actually Princess Barbara!"

"She's been missing for decades—how did she suddenly return?"

"Quick, inform Princess Adele!"

"Upon seeing Barbara, everyone around was greatly startled."

"Some were happy, some worried, some purely surprised."

"Lu, give me Dark Energy, I want to break through!"

"Barbara shouted."

"Good!"

"Lu Xun threw out Dark Energy."

"After Barbara caught it, she began chanting the spell."

"Not good, it's Abyssal Echo!"

"Adele's Nine Realm subordinate's face changed."

"He recognized the curse Barbara was using."

"Curses come in many types."

"There are transformation curses, binding curses, immobilizing curses, power-increasing curses, and some extremely special ones."

"For example, Abyssal Echo."

"This curse can store one's cultivation in an 'Abyss' for later, then release it all at once to produce a shock effect, usable for breaking through realms."

It's like being stuck at the peak of a major realm, a cultivator who cannot advance further; no matter how they train, their cultivation won't increase even a bit.

At that point, if there is an abyssal echo, they can continue cultivating.

The cultivation gained from training will all be stored in the "abyss".

When the stored cultivation is sufficient, it can be used to assault the next realm.

Of course, this spell carries risk.

If the breakthrough fails.

The stored cultivation will then burst like a flood, rupturing one's body, and then it's over.

Previously, Aodaili achieved a breakthrough of several minor realms in one go through the abyssal echo.

Now,

Babala has actually used the abyssal echo as well.

And with the use of the abyssal echo,

Vast amounts of cultivation begin to enter Babala's body.

Babala's strength thus began to rise.

In a short time.

Babala reached the threshold of the Eighth Realm.

Then,

Under the surge of this cultivation, she broke through the Nine Realms in one fell swoop.

Even after breaking through the Nine Realms, it wasn't over.

Babala's cultivation began to skyrocket.

From the first layer of the Nine Realms, to the second, third, fourth...

The speed of this breakthrough is simply astonishing.

"Heaven!"

Adai'er's Nine Realms subordinates felt the change in Babala's aura and were stunned.

Babala, just how much cultivation have you stored?
