Cultivation Online novel Chapter 1984

"How long have I been in here?" Yuan mumbled to himself as his body continued to travel through the space rift, feeling like it’d been ages since he entered the portal.

However, in reality, it’d only been a few minutes since he entered.

"Wait a second… this might be an opportunity to train my Power of the Void…"

Realizing this, Yuan stopped thinking about the passage of time and focused solely on the void around him.

<Your understanding of Power of the Void has increased slightly>

With nothing to do but train his Power of the Void, Yuan focused entirely on it, eventually forgetting that he was in a space rift and traveling back to Earth.

Only an hour had passed since Heaven’s Mandate began their invasion, yet more than half of the Holy Dragon Clan had already fallen. The majority were young dragons and servants—those without the cultivation to survive such a brutal onslaught.

"Look around you! This is the result of your foolish defiance, Holy Dragon Emperor!" General Wang exclaimed with a vicious smile on his face. "Did you really think the Holy Dragon Clan could stop Heaven’s Mandate, the strongest army in the Nine Heavens?!"

"Of course not," the Dragon Emperor calmly replied.

"Then you must’ve believed your royal bloodline would make the Celestial Emperor hesitate! Unfortunately for you, that didn’t work out either!"

"You won’t understand it even if I were to break it down for you."

"I don’t need to understand it, nor do I want to!"

The clash between the Dragon Emperor and General Wang—two peak God Ascension powerhouses—was so catastrophic that even the ripples from their blows carried enough force to instantly obliterate an Immortal upon contact.

To prevent their battle from decimating allies and enemies alike, they erected a barrier of Celestial Qi around themselves.

As for Xi Meili, she had managed to survive, though just barely, thanks to the protective treasures Yuan had given her. But mere survival was all she could manage. Against Immortals, her attacks were like droplets against stone, ineffective and easily brushed aside.

"Damn it all… they’re too powerful…" she muttered through clenched teeth, frustration burning in her chest like fire. Her hands trembled—not from fear, but from the unbearable weight of her own powerlessness.

"If only I were a little stronger!" Xi Meili cried out inwardly, frustration and helplessness twisting in her chest.

But before the thought could fade, a wave of killing intent crashed over her like a cold tide.

"DIE!"

An Immortal soldier charged straight at her, blade gleaming with killing intent. Xi Meili turned weakly toward the threat, but her body refused to move—too drained and battered. She couldn’t even lift a finger to defend herself, much less avoid it.

’Ah… Is this the end for me? I’m sorry, Yuan, but this will be the end of my journey with you… It was fun…’’
