Evie stopped crying. She cradled favonovel.com child with one hand while covering favonovel.com mouth with the other. Her expression shifted from shock to endless joy.
“I-Isaac, y-you’re awake!”
“Thank goodness that you’re awake!” Altair’s eyes also widened in surprise.
The sorrowful atmosphere in the room disappeared in an instant.
When Isaac opened his eyes, the frightening aura throughout his body vanished. He knew what had happened. Lying on the ground, favonovel.com turned to stare straight at Lucifer, who stood behind the crowd.
Lucifer also noticed that Isaac’s eyes, which used to turn completely scarlet when angered, now only had two small scarlet dots in his pupils. They resembled concentrated sparks.
“You all leave… Hera stays,” Isaac spoke, his voice extremely cold.
Soon, everyone in the room left. Hera stood aside at a loss.
Isaac stood up and looked at Obi, who was still sitting on the ground. He stared at Obi for a long time before speaking sorrowfully, “If I had known that you would make me break through beyond my limits like this, I wouldn’t have agreed to it…”
“Hera, call the apothecary. Ask favonovel.com to take care of Sir Obi’s body!”
“W-What do you mean?” Hera was puzzled when favonovel.com spotted Isaac walking outside.
“Don’t let Sir Obi’s body decay. I want to send Obi back to Emerald Hall,” Isaac explained as favonovel.com walked out.
Watching his figure, favonovel.com felt as if favonovel.com had aged a lot in an instant.
Isaac went alone to the artificial lake in the backyard garden. Facing the shimmering lake, favonovel.com took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and began to feel the changes in his body.
His meridians had expanded by twice as much as before. Upon inspecting his power core, favonovel.com found that the spiritual energy circulating within was as thick as blood. A blood-red bead the size of a pigeon egg floated in the center of the power core.
Around the blood-red bead, blue electric currents swirled. Those electric currents were likewise far stronger than before.
Isaac barely recalled Obi saying something in a hurried and muffled voice before passing out. He explained that the blood-red bead was known as the Inner Spirit Bead, which could only be condensed and born by martial practitioners in the Spiritual Phase. The Inner Spirit Bead represented a martial practitioner’s second life!
After the Spiritual Phase, the following was the Blazing Phase, in which one could step into the void, shatter everything with a fist, and open the path for greater martial arts.
Isaac couldn’t recall it clearly. After all, it appeared to be what Obi had stated in his final moments.
“Congratulations, I didn’t expect you to reach the Spiritual Phase’s strength in one go. You’re not much worse off than Morgan.” Lucifer’s voice suddenly came from behind.
Isaac turned around and smirked at Lucifer, who was dressed in loose sportswear.
He showed killing intent. “If I hadn’t woken up, were you planning to kill my people?”
Lucifer was taken aback and laughed. “Do you want to kill me? Isaac, are you sure you can deal with Morgan alone after killing me?”
“From what I know, Morgan was already at the intermediate stage of the Spiritual Phase 30 years ago. He’s at least at the advanced stage of the Spiritual Phase now. He might even have broken through to the Blazing Phase. If that’s the case, we’ll end up as his defeated losers even if we join forces.”
Isaac snorted. “You don’t need to worry about me. You should be more concerned about yourself.”
After pondering for a while, Lucifer turned and left.
Isaac walked into the living room and saw Hera playing with Quillon.
