His heart seized violently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The aura that followed was suffocating, like the breath of death itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This power... could it be...?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d only ever sensed something like this once before—from that Boss, the Blood King. But even then, it hadn’t been this intense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bongo’s strike had ended, yet the blood-red sword she held still shimmered with violent energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blade vibrated once. Then, without warning, a line of blood light erupted from it, cutting through the air and streaking straight toward Alistair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment the blood arc closed in, Alistair’s skin prickled. His scalp tingled. A bone-deep premonition of death seized his soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he wasn’t just any person—he was a War God-level veteran who’d held that rank for over a thousand years. A supreme expert, feared and revered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Snapping out of his shock, Alistair clenched his teeth and roared. His body expanded in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Golden light engulfed him as he transformed into his true form: a massive golden bird, his aura blazing like an inferno climbing into the heavens. With a screech, he raised his claws and slashed down toward the incoming sword light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Patriarch!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Far in the distance, Astrid—flung away earlier by Alistair’s palm—cried out. Tears streaked down her face. She recognized that light: he was burning his demon core.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alistair opened his beak wide, and from within emerged a shimmering golden bone. He spat it forward—an ancestral artifact.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bone was a wing, radiating light and fury. It blasted toward the blood sword, backed by winds and lightning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan, watching from afar, recognized it instantly. Having eaten his fair share of chicken wings, he knew—it was the middle section.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two forces met.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blood-colored sword light sliced through the golden wing bone without slowing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hiss...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sound sharp and soft. The artifact, passed down through generations, was severed like paper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next came the claws.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a shrill shriek, Alistair’s golden claws shattered. The blood light carved through them cleanly, scattering radiant shards like falling stardust.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Aaaaaagh!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alistair howled. Both his claws were gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thrown back hundreds of yards, he tried to stabilize in the air. But before he could recover, a blood mark appeared on his chest, cutting through his robes. His legs buckled beneath him, and he dropped from the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sword hadn’t just destroyed an ancestral treasure and torn through his beast form’s defenses—it was draining the very life from him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You... you’re...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alistair looked at the petite girl standing in midair, her blood sword still humming. Then, as if a horrifying realization dawned on him, his expression contorted in fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he couldn’t finish his sentence. A fine line opened on his forehead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, with a boom, his body split cleanly in two—falling to the earth in twin arcs of golden blood, his true form collapsing into broken wings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Run!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan’s breath caught as Bongo’s blazing red eyes turned toward them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He cursed himself for not listening to Black Qilin earlier. That guy had run faster than a rabbit and clearly knew something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We can’t outrun her!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uncle Jed’s hands trembled as he drew his Silver Dragon Spear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ormund’s figure blurred forward, moving fast enough to create a sonic boom—but even that wasn’t enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a blink, Bongo stood before them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ormund stopped abruptly. Any further, and he’d have rammed into her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You all deserve to die... You all deserve to die...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bongo’s voice was barely above a whisper, but each repetition dripped with madness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Standing atop his tiger mount, Ethan clenched his fists. No choice. I’ll have to use another forbidden spell... Hope I survive it this time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Die...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bongo raised her sword again, pointing it directly at Ethan and the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uncle Jed held his spear in one hand, forming a finger seal with the other. Golden light coalesced at his fingertip as he aimed it toward his own Core.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was preparing to unseal his true power. Even if it brought heavenly tribulation down on his head, he was ready to die alone if it meant saving the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan suddenly grabbed his wrist. Jed’s fingertip stopped just a breath away from his Core.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, as if someone flipped a switch, the aura vanished. The blood-red sword in Bongo’s hand dissolved into mist. Her body shuddered—and she collapsed backward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ormund!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Ethan could even shout, Ormund darted down and caught her mid-air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dana quickly took her into her arms as Ethan and Jed rushed over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bongo lay unconscious, her brow furrowed. Though her eyes were closed, faint trails of red flame still seeped from the corners.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How is she?\" Ethan asked, his voice tight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dana shook her head helplessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted to use his Soul Sense to check her condition—but hesitated. She was Julian’s wife. That would cross a line.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ethan, run! Now!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black Qilin’s voice boomed from behind. He wasn’t alone—Central Dominion Guards had arrived with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan frowned. Blackie was always shouting about retreating, but this time... something was off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ethan... run quickly...\" Julian’s voice echoed right after.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then—BOOM!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A deafening roar shook the skies. Ethan turned. His eyes widened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sky was splitting open. Countless colossal figures poured through the void behind them—War God-rank powerhouses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ones from the intelligence reports... they’d come.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black Qilin was already beside Ormund, checking on Bongo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan scanned the approaching army. Then, with a wave of his hand, he swept Jed, Dana, and the unconscious Bongo onto the back of the Black Qilin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julian caught her, stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ormund, you’re with me. We’ll hold them off. Julian—there are still ten people alive down below. Get them out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Make a wide detour. Head for the outskirts of Hurricane City.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without waiting for a response, Ormund launched himself forward—straight into the enemy tide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ethan!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dana and Jed shouted after him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julian hesitated. But then he remembered the look in Ethan’s eyes as they passed each other. That was all it took.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gritting his teeth, Julian knocked Uncle Jed out cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his power sealed, Jed was only Sovereign-tier now. He’d be a liability on the battlefield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Central Dominion Guard—full speed! Withdraw!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The 20,000 soldiers stared in disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan had just blazed past them, and now... they were being ordered to retreat?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But duty was duty. And while Ethan had proven himself over the past two weeks with his unorthodox tactics and string of victories, Julian was still their commander.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orders were orders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ormund...\" Ethan stood on his tiger’s head, watching the storm approach. \"You afraid?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who isn’t afraid of dying?\" Ormund replied without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan let out a dry chuckle. \"Yeah... me too. But behind us are twenty thousand brothers. We can’t afford fear.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ormund didn’t speak again. He didn’t need to. The look in his eyes said everything Ethan needed to hear.\u003C\u002Fp>",1147,"2026-06-02T11:41:20.826Z",1,"novelbin.me","78b5d4b166e6ae763db9a6012291ba4125758f99f2823028e5e5f4cb8e15fac3","level-1-to-infinity-my-bloodline-is-the-ultimate-chapter-429","level-1-to-infinity-my-bloodline-is-the-ultimate-chapter-427",946,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Flevel-1-to-infinity-my-bloodline-is-the-ultimate-cover.jpg"]
