Caspian did not go anywhere for the next ten days but stayed in the Time Warp and practiced.

As Caspian’s body became more tenacious and condensed, the faster he swallowed the spirit stones.

In less than 24 hours, Caspian was able to digest one piece of spirit stone, and with that, it also enhanced the rapid growth of the storage of the spiritual Qi in him

The ten days in the real world was 30 days in the Time Warp Zone, which was equivalent to a month. In that month, Caspian swallowed 32 pieces of spirit stones.

Before that, he needed about 50 days to swallow 32 pieces of spirit stones!

“Based on this speed, the peak first-stage of Pulse Control Realm is not far from my reach “ Caspian thought confidently.

Usually, a Heavenly Stars Sect's disciple would need at least seven years to go from entry-level first- stage to peak first-stage Pulse Control Realm.

Those who are gifted like Xander would need at least four years too.

Moreover, unlike Caspian, Xander, Omar, and the others were backed by powerful families.

From the beginning, Caspian only relied on himself besides the heirloom left by his mother.

Based on his calculation, Caspian only needed less than a year in real life to reach the peak first- stage from the entry-level!

The Earring of Echo and the Tower of Life left by his mother was Caspian’s greatest reliance! Furthermore, Caspian was excited for the items stored in the upper levels of the Tower of Life.

“I must reach the peak first-stage Pulse Control Realm before the winter! Then, I'll start breaking through the second-stage Pulse Control Realm and become an outer disciple!” Caspian set a goal for himself.

It was already the third of May, and South Earlington was the warmest part in the Earlington of Efrax.

When the mortals in North Earlington still wore thick attires, South Earlington was already in the middle of summer.

Each day was scorching hot, and the sun rose early and set late.

On what seemed like a typical day, Samson Clifford carried a basket full of produce he got from the mountain and walked home by taking advantage of the sunset light.

Living by his ancestors’ teachings of staying near the mountain and source of water, Samson lived in Wellspring Village, which was located at the foot of a hill.

He was just an ordinary hill person who survived by picking mountain produce and selling them to merchants.

After working hard all day, Samson's stomach was already rumbling with hunger.

At the thought of the delicious meals waiting for him at home, Samson immediately fastened his pace.

From afar, the gate with the words, Wellspring Village was visible.

However, Samson felt strange as he could usually see smoke from each house in the village from that direction.

Not only that, the large dog reared by the village barked nonstop along with the children’s laughter. However, there was none of those today.

Instead, the village was strangely quiet, and Samson could not help but feel uneasy.

Hence, he quickened his steps and rushed toward the entrance of the village.

Not long after, he saw a corpse next to the archway of the entrance.

More accurately, it was half a body.

From the deceased's grievance expression, Samson recognized that it was the village chief's mentally disabled son.

The child would usually do nothing all day long but just squat at the entrance, staring at the young women of the families in the village and giggling silly at them.

He would also greet Samson whenever he saw Samson return, and when he was in a good mood, the kid would also share some wild fruits with him.

However, the kid's lower body was gone, leaving a long and terrifying trail of blood behind its remaining body.

After the child lost his lower body, it was apparent that he crawled over here until his last breath. The wound on his waist was uneven about as if he was torn apart by a ferocious beast, and even his intestine was exposed, mixing with the dried up blood and splattered on the ground.

Samson's mind went blank.

After staring at the corpse dumbfoundedly, he suddenly felt his stomach abruptly moving.

Then, Samson could not hold back anymore and ran to the side to vomit.

As Samson's stomach was empty long ago, all he hurled was his stomach acid.

Even so, Samson could not stop vomiting when he thought of the child's tragic situation.

It felt as if he was about to puke his stomach out.

After a long while, Samson finally stopped vomiting.

He then stumbled and ran toward the village.

Nonetheless, Samson was no fool.

When he saw the first corpse and related it to the strange silence of the village, Samson realized what might have happened.

However, Samson still had wishful thinking, he hoped that his family was unharmed.

Samson turned a blind eye to the ruined roads and collapsed houses in the village.

Even the pungent smell of blood could not stop him from advancing.

When he finally reached his house, Samson was stupefied.

The home that was built for less than two months seemed to have been bombed, and most of it collapsed.

The mud bricks and stones were scattered all over.

Then, Samson saw his mother with only half a head lying on the broken wall.

Her back seemed to be slashed open by something sharp, revealing her spine.

Next, Samson found his wife's remaining hand.

Samson knew it was his virtuous wife he just married for less than a year as there was a birthmark the size of a nail and shaped like a bunny on the inside of her arm.

The night before that, Samson even jokingly poked at the birthmark.

Yet, the lady of this arm only left her cold hand behind, lying in front of Samson.

"What... What happened?” The colossal blow caused Samson to forget the pain for a moment. Then, he looked around, and he realized the entire village was ruined.

If robbers slaughtered the village, at most, they would kill people and set fire to steal food. However, there was no fire at the scene, and there was no shortage of food, gold, and silver. Instead, the whole village died, and all houses were damaged to varying degrees. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the FɪndNøvel.ɴᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Moreover, Samson knew there was a Heavenly Stars Sect's branch less than 30 kilometers from his village.

With the Heavenly Stars Sect's protection, there was no robber in the entire region.

“Who... Who did this..?” Samson muttered, and his gaze was hollow.

Suddenly, there was a loud cracking sound from the ruined house behind him.

Samson was shocked, and he quickly turned over.

Next, he caught sight of a silhouette making loud crunching sounds, slowly walking out of the dark corner.

When the dark figure appeared in front of him, Samson was wide-eyed.

He felt a chill running down his spine, his hair stood on end, and it was like a current rushed from the bottom of his back to his head, making a crackling sound.

“Who... Who are you?!" After a while, the quiet village echoed with Samson's fearful scream.
