The legendary warrior novel Chapter 1230

The reason behind the rift's appearance put the Desolate Sorcery tribe in a precarious situation.

Once they spotted the rift, the creatures of the Desolate Sorcery tribe wanted to pass through it to get out. However, they found that there was a strong suppressive force on it, preventing them from passing through.

The suppressive force was equal to a blow from a three-star lower spiritual emperor.

However, the strongest warriors of the Desolate Sorcery tribe were just two-star lower spiritual emperors. They couldn't reach a higher realm.

It was impossible for them to pass through the rift. If they tried to force their way through, they would have to suffer dire consequences.

Realizing what was going to happen, they chose to stop for a while.

However, several days after the rift appeared, they finally figured out why it was formed.

It was the result of the collision between their place and another Sealed Land.

After the two lands collided, the two ancient arrays which had sealed them collided and caused the two lands to begin to merge as one.

The other Sealed Land was the place where the Devil Flood Dragon tribe stayed. This tribe belonged to the devil race.

There were a few three-star lower spiritual emperors in the Devil Flood Dragon tribe. So, overall, the Desolate Sorcery tribe was weaker than them, and they were no match for the former.

The devil race held deep grudge against the creatures from the continent. The Devil Flood Dragon tribe's hatred for their sworn enemy had grown over the years after they had been sealed away. They slaughtered the Desolate Sorcery tribe in cold blood once they crossed paths.

Facing their powerful enemies, the members of the Desolate Sorcery tribe had no other choice but to activate the broken supreme weapon left behind by their ancestors—the Sorcerous Combat Palace.

If they wanted to get the Sorcerous Combat Palace working, it would cost the powerful members of the Desolate Sorcery tribe their lives and blood essence.

Ten spiritual emperors of the tribe gave up their lives to activate the weapon.

All the remaining members of the Desolate Sorcery tribe entered the Sorcerous Combat Palace to hide from the Devil Flood Dragon tribe.

However, the problem was that the Sorcerous Combat Palace's effects would wear off in twenty years.

They didn't think it was a good idea to sacrifice more spiritual emperors after twenty years to keep the weapon continuing working.

Moreover, they didn't have so many powerful members at the Emperor Level left in their tribe.

In the end, another three elders at the Emperor Level in their tribe scarified their lives. They unleashed their full strength and successfully pushed Mordechai through the rift.

Despite that, Mordechai had sustained severe injuries after being hit by the suppressive force of the rift. He had almost died passing through it, and he was left weak and incapable to fend for himself. He needed help badly. If no one had healed him, he would succumb to his injuries.

Fortunately, he had stumbled into Ashley who was in the middle of her training.

She saved him and brought him back. With her help, he joined the wood branch. He saw her as his savior. Anything she asked, he would do for her as long as he could.

It has been sixteen years since he had left the Sealed Land.

Over the years, he had only one goal, which was to become a three-star lower spiritual emperor. Once he accomplished that goal, he would return to the Sealed Land and rescue his people.

He was a talented warrior. He had even become a disciple of the wood branch. If he hadn't been severely injured when he passed through that rift, it wouldn't have taken him sixteen years to become a three-star lower spiritual emperor.

Of course, Lloyd was also a big help to him.

Fortunately, the Sorcerous Combat Palace would protect his people for twenty years. He still had time to save them all.

"Oh, I see. I didn't expect that you have been through so much. I finally understand why you care about nothing but cultivation. It also didn't occur to me that you are from the Desolate Sorcery tribe. No wonder you possess such an incredibly strong body,"

"I don't get it. Why do you want us dead? Is it because you lost to us and weren't able to become the holy son?" Mordechai cut in. "Even though you didn't become the holy son, Elder Lloyd still thinks highly of you, and you are still an important disciple of the wood branch. Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked you to take this mission which you refused earlier!"

"Shut up! You are the holy son now. You've stolen my dream! You will never understand how I feel. You have no idea how important it is to me.

Only if I became the holy son could I win Ashely's affection. Her love was all I ever wanted, and you have ruined my chances!"

When he finished his sentence, Guillermo looked at Ashley. His eyes were full of lust and obsession. Ashley shivered in disgust.

"Guillermo, I never look down on anyone. I never think of you differently, and I certainly don't care whether you are the holy son or not. However, what you are doing disappoints me.

I didn't expect that you would betray us to get what you want.

I despise you now," Ashley said, frowning at Guillermo.

Suddenly, Guillermo felt fire light up inside of him. His emotions suddenly got the better of him, and the look in his eyes suddenly became ferocious. He did not look like the Guillermo they knew. Perhaps this was what he really was. Ashley's response just made him show his true colors.

"You can say whatever you like because I don't really care what you say about me anymore. Today, they will die. I will imprison you, and you will become my woman.

The wood branch will also belong to me!" Guillermo proclaimed, staring at Ashley.

"Humph! Dream on!" Ricky said, sneering at him.

He didn't expect that Guillermo would be so cruel and selfish.

'Perhaps there is no absolute good or evil. We may just see him as bad because we do not share the same stance.

He is doing all this just to get what he is after,' Ricky thought to himself at the same time.
