Rebirth: Tyrant's New Reality

"Why are they inquiring about Sierra?" Lady Rong questioned with a frown as she took the letter from peak master of spirit blossom peak.

"What are they asking?" asked Polan, the peak master of Mortal Chaos peak.

While Lady Rong read the letter, the peak master of Spirit Blossom Peak wryly smiled and said, "They are asking about Sierra's status in our sect and whether she is married or not."

"Because she defeated the Royal Prince Yosin…." Lady Rong muttered as she finished reading the letter.

"The Frezya Empire is one of the strongest forces around this region because of their inheritance foundation. Unlike us, they always have six powerhouses with innate physiques and powerful bloodlines, reaching an ultimate power level of the 1st realm before ascending… And now, their Royal Prince was defeated in public."

"Are they asking Sierra to be their prince's concubine or something?"

"Yeah. They directly inquired here without asking her, heh, "Lady Rong said. "Let's send the letter that she is already married and our holy daughter," Lady Rong said.

Everyone was startled.

"Lady Rong, we need to get consent from the 2nd realm if we want to regard Sierra as our holy daughter. If Frezya Empire in the 2nd realm cross-checked with our sect in the 2nd realm and found out that Sierra is not a holy daughter, it would create some tension between us," peak master of Illusion Flower peak said with a frown.

Holy Daugther and Holy son were titles given to exceptional people who were promised special grooming once they ascended to the 2nd realm.

However, when peak masters here decided to give the title of Holy Son or Holy Daugther to someone, they needed to contact their sect in the 2nd realm. The 2nd realm would then send someone to the 1st realm and check whether they are worthy of the title.

If the person from the 2nd realm deemed the candidates worthy, they would get a holy son or holy daughter medallion.

Naturally, such titles are only given to disciples who have gained an innate physique and a powerful bloodline along with exceptional combat power.

No doubt Sierra and Arkhen were worthy of those titles.

"This reminded me of the last holy son… We were just disciples at that time, but that senior truly became exceptional here after gaining a legacy in an adventure, but…" said the peak master of Shadow Star Peak as she wryly smiled.

Everyone shook their heads hearing that. That last holy son became lazy, lost his edge, and became trash after ascending to the 2nd realm.

The sect in the 2nd realm stripped him of his status and stopped grooming him after seeing that he couldn't live up to their expectations.

After all, people with innate physiques and powerful bloodlines instantly become average after ascending to the 2nd realm because everyone can get an innate physique there at the start after ascending.

A powerful bloodline is still a bit hard to get, but not impossible as long as one is willing to work hard.

The important factor was improving and developing that innate physique, same with bloodlines.

Both required a sharp mind, powerful will, and high comprehension, along with hard work and overall endurance.

"Arkhen and Sierra are worthy of those titles. The competition there will be hard after they ascend, but I believe in them," Lady Rong said with a smile. "Also, leave the contact to our sect in the 2nd realm to me. The Holy Son and Holy Daugther medallions will be here."

"Alright, we shall leave that to you," said Polan as he nodded. "Now, who will write the reply letter to Frezya Empire?"

"Leave that to me," said the peak master of Frozen Light mountain peak.

…

"Mythic-grade bloodline…" Arkhen softly spoke as he opened his eyes and felt profoundly powerful. He also felt something new in his body.

"Blood Essence?" Arkhen questioned as he saw the panel of his bloodline. "Is that the additional power source I am feeling in my body?"

[Indeed. Bloodline below epic grade doesn't produce Blood Essence; therefore, their passive boosts are small, and their abilities are also weak.]

"Yeah. That Starlord Hyacinth's wings had slower flight speed than I flying on my force field."

[Yes. But the bloodline abilities that cost Blood Essence are significantly more powerful, like… very much powerful. The stronger the bloodline ability, the stronger the toll on your body and mind. You can't spam them continuously].

"Yeah, I can see that from their cost. What is the recovery time of Blood Essence?"

[It takes one day to recover 100,000 Blood Essence if you eat nutritional food daily.]

[But in urgent situations, you can refine your regular blood into blood essence by tapping into your bloodline source with a thought. It's called Blood Condensing].

"Nice. How much is the conversion rate?"

[70% of your entire body's blood can produce 100,000 Blood Essence].

"…"

[…]

[Ahem, doing that would also drastically reduce the recovery speed of your Blood Essence. After doing Blood Condensing once, you will first need to refill your body's blood, and then your Blood Essence will start recovery].

"Then I guess the power of those high-cost bloodline abilities will be superb, hahaha. I can't wait to try them. Now onto the next big thing…."

He awakened two affinities because of this bloodline!

Dark and Lightning!

"Velshi, use that affinity choice and select Blood affinity. Hahaha, I'm glad I saved up that choice until now," Arkhen said as he loudly laughed.

That affinity choice had a Dark and Blood affinity option. If he had chosen Dark affinity in haste, it would've gone to waste!

[Indeed. It was wise to save that choice chance].

[Congratulations! You have awakened Blood Affinity].

| Affinity |

- Fire, Vanquish, Ki, Chaos, Order, Dark, Lightning, Blood.

"Damn, so many affinities. But only Fire and Vanquish are powerful since I have made significant progress in them."

[Affinities below level 2 are useless in the 2nd realm; Haha, you will need to spend a lot of time making progress in those affinities].

"But I guess the next Guardian Boss will help me progress faster in my affinities," Arkhen said with a grin.

[That depends on your comprehension and efforts. Now, let's go to the top of this tree. The next Guardian Boss is there].

[It is also the final guardian boss you can defeat while you are in the 1st realm].

"Alright," Arkhen nodded before he grinned. "Time to use new flying ability."

Arkhen used his newly acquired ability from his new bloodline. Storm Wings!

A pair of Storm Wings unfurled from his back.

The wings were made from a dark lightning aura crackling with lightning. It also had a faint dark bluish and light gold hue.

*Crackle… Boom!*

The sound barrier instantly broke as Arkhen flew up.

The air was vaporizing, and the atmosphere cracked as Arkhen shot up high in the sky!

"Woohoo! This is awesome!"

From afar, one would see a dark bolt of lightning going upward beside the gigantic tree that was over ten kilometers tall!

Naturally, Arkhen's speed was not as fast as a light, but it was still remarkably swift!
