Bab 28: Saint Cultivator Pleas (Rewrite)
[: 3rd POV :]
"Half-Immortal? Is it really that amazing?" Daniel questioned.
"W-What do you mean! It's a realm that many sought to reach!" The Elder explained.
"Really? Then, how about this?" Moments later, Daniel increased his aura and realm.
From the Transcendent, the Elder's eyes widened in surprise.
To Ascended, the Elder's expression shifted to disbelief.
Ancestral, the Elder's breath caught, realizing the extraordinary nature of Daniel's cultivation.
Emperor, the Elder's knees trembled as he struggled to comprehend the escalating power before him.
Martial Emperor, the Elder's hands shook, a mix of fear and awe in his gaze.
Saint, the Elder staggered backwards, unable to fathom the immense energy emanating from Daniel.
Martial Saint, the Elder fell to his knees, overwhelmed by the divine presence that now surrounded Daniel.
"This is...impossible..."
Deva, the Elder's eyes widened further, realizing he was witnessing a cultivation level that was difficult to reach.
"How could this be...!?"
At some point, the domain couldn't withstand the pressure from Daniel, and it broke all apart.
It shattered like glasses and the Elder, on the ground, watched in astonishment as each level of cultivation was surpassed in rapid succession.
Eventually, Daniel's cultivation realm reached the ultimate stage and apex, the 10th Stage Half-Immortal Realm.
The Elder, still on his knees, looked up with a mix of reverence and disbelief.
"Impossible! This is beyond impossible!"
"H-How could you reach that realm at such a young age!?"
The Elder exclaimed, his voice filled with both fear and disbelief.
Right now, his mind was in total chaos.
The number of Half Immortals in this continent can only be counted with both fingers.
Moreover, not all of them were at the zenith of the 10th Stage.
Daniel, now emanating a Half-Immortal Aura questioned.
"Do you still think I need to be afraid of those fools behind your back?"
The realization hit the Elder like a thunderbolt.
Daniel, now at the 10th Stage of Half-Immortal, was an unparalleled force in the continent.
The mere thought of offending someone of such formidable stature sent shivers down his spine.
Even a 9th Stage Half-Immortal couldn't afford to offend him.
The difference between a single stage was akin to Heaven and Earth.
At the same time, his words were stuck in his throat as he trembled in the presence of this overwhelming force.
The thought of calling for reinforcements was useless, as none among the Half-Immortals would dare to confront Daniel with the difference of stage.
Moreover, he doesn't have the privilege of calling a Half-Immortal as a reinforcement.
The fear was crawling all over his body.
The Elder knew that with just a glance, Daniel could extinguish his life.
"Elder...? What are you waiting for? Kill that man!"
All of a sudden, Vasquez's impatient voice echoed.
Moments before, the domain seal had concealed the ongoing events inside.
Hence, Zuke and Elizabeth were in a state of concern and uncertainty.
While Vasquez eagerly awaited the outcome of his victory, Zuke and Elizabeth anxiously waited.
'I hope he's fine and nothing would happen to him'
Elizabeth, silently praying for his safety, couldn't shake off the worry that something might have gone awry within that sealed space.
On the other hand, the Elder's frustration surged.
Instead of showing his wrath towards Daniel, he redirected his anger towards Vasquez.
Moreover, he was the instigator of this situation.
With disdain in his voice, he reprimanded Vasquez for his ignorance.
"You! Keep your mouth shut!"
" Don't you know that the man you're asking me to kill is a master at the Half-Immortal Realm?"
His words carried a weight of a heavy truth.
Vasquez, however, remained unconvinced, dismissing it as a mere jest.
"What...? Half-Immortal Realm?"
"No, that can't be. Is Elder joking? Now, it's not the time to joke, you know."
Vasquez's disbelief was apparent, but the Elder's tone shifted, emphasizing the seriousness of the situation.
Meanwhile, Elizabeth and Zuke were listening.
While Zuke was surprised and shocked by the truth, Elizabeth was looking at Daniel in a new light.
"You think I'm joking!?"
"Not even the Empress would dare to offend someone at the Half-Immortal Realm!"
"Then, do you think I dare to offend him!?"
The Elder's fury intensified, regret gnawing at him for becoming Zuke'd guardian.
"H-Half Immortal Realm!?"
Vasquez, now grasping the gravity of the situation had abandoned his doubts.
The concept of the Half-Immortal Realm was beyond his comprehension.
Since the Elder's was showing such a fear, Vasquez couldn't help but be convinced.
"Enough of your useless chatter,"
On the other hand, Daniel's patience had decreased.
He had longed to end this and with a mere lift of his hand, he unleashed a colossal wave of energy towards the Elder.
The force of it was so immense that it caused catastrophic destruction, leading to the Elder's demise.
The Elder's last breath lingered with an audible, "Ah..." before his existence was obliterated, leaving no trace of bone or a drop of blood behind.
Vasquez, witnessing the effortless act of Daniel taking a life with a mere wave, felt the weight of realization crushing him.
The proof of Daniel's Half-Immortal cultivation became undeniable.
Overwhelmed by the revelation, Vasquez's knees weakened, and he sank to the floor in fear.
The once confident and mocking demeanour is now replaced by the sheer terror of facing a being of such immense power.
Nevertheless, he heard footsteps.
As the echoing sound of footsteps grew louder, intensifying Vasquez's terror as he realized Daniel was drawing nearer.
Fear gripped him, rendering him motionless.
In the presence of a Half-Immortal, he found himself unable to escape.
His legs refused to cooperate due to his weakened mentality.
"Don't come near me!"
Vasquez pleaded, his attempt to distance himself was useless.
"For someone who had declared to kill me, I never expected to see such a pathetic sight"
As Daniel approached, he mocked Vasquez for the pitiful sight he presented.
"F-Forgive me. I didn't mean that,"
Vasquez stuttered in a desperate attempt to beg for mercy.
However, Daniel, with cold, blank eyes, remained silent.
Instead of addressing Vasquez's pleas directly, Daniel pointed toward Zuke and Elizabeth.
While Zuke had waited not far away, Elizabeth had emerged from the mansion upon learning of the death of the Saint Realm Cultivator.
"The one you should ask for forgiveness is not me, but them,"
Daniel declared, directing Vasquez's attention to the father-daughter duo.
