From Outcast to Overlord The Unyielding Heir (Leander Ashcroft) novel Chapter 644

Chapter 644 Blazing Horizon

“It’s demonic obstruction!”

Julian’s expression changed instantly. A chill ran through him.

Every King Phase master had to form a Domain of their own before they could truly be called a King Phase master.

But realizing a Domain and actually unfolding it were two completely different things.

The first time any King Phase master tried to release their Domain, they all faced the same barrier–demonic obstruction.

It was the inner demon that surfaced the moment one attempted to manifest a Domain.

A Domain was an unfathomable, mysterious power. Only those blessed with extraordinary talent could even touch its threshold. And no King Phase master would attempt to unfold a Domain unless they were completely confident.

But understanding it was one thing.

Successfully releasing it was another.

To unfold a Domain required insight, total focus, iron will, and countless experiences and trials.

One hundred percent of King Phase masters failed the first time.

And that failure inevitably dragged them into their inner demon, planting doubt deep in their hearts.

Imagine a scholar who had mastered astronomy and geography, who could recite entire libraries by heart–yet when he entered an exam hall, he suddenly couldn’t even write a single basic word. Not one point earned.

Wouldn’t he begin to doubt everything he knew?

Every King Phase master who wanted to condense a Domain had to defeat their inner demon. They had to walk through demonic

obstruction.

Even Lucas–recognized across Astria as the strongest King Phase master in three hundred years–had failed nine times before finally overcoming his inner demon on the tenth attempt and forming his Domain.

And he stood at the very peak of genius.

Most King Phase masters needed dozens–sometimes hundreds–of failures before they succeeded.

Leander was attempting to unfold his Domain for the first time.

In all of history, not a single person had succeeded on their first attempt.

And now, Leander had fallen into that first failure.

His mind was lost in chaos. He had no awareness of the outside world. No sense of his surroundings. His consciousness drifted in a fog of emptiness.

When Lucas had faced his inner demon years ago, Julian had been there. He, Master Branson, and the others had exhausted every ounce of strength before barely managing to pull Lucas back to his senses.

But now, Leander had fallen into demonic obstruction at such a critical moment.

Trying to wake him under these circumstances?

Impossible.

“What’s wrong with Leander?”

Ginny sensed something was off. He stood there in silence, lifeless, as if his soul had slipped away.

Panic flashed through Yvette’s beautiful eyes. She had never seen him like this before. She didn’t understand what was happening -but she knew something was terribly wrong.

“Haha! You overconfident brat!”

The two Ghost Kings threw their heads back and laughed as Leander stood frozen, staring blankly at the flame in his hand.

“You think a little talent lets you meddle in everything?”

“You think King Phase is that simple? Without breaking through demonic obstruction, you’ll remain a Pseudo King Phase master for the rest of your life!”

“Today, we will teach you a lesson you’ll remember forever!”

The Soul–Reaver Ghost King let out a shrill laugh. His five fingers curled into claws, long black nails gleaming with a cold, deadly sheen.

“I’ll rip your martial power out of you. Strip your cultivation. Leave you a crippled mortal to suffer for the rest of your life!”

With a stomp, he shot forward. A violent gust of wind exploded outward as he lunged straight at Leander.

“D’mn it! Stop!”

Julian’s pupils shrank. He roared and launched himself forward to intercept the attack.

Right now, Leander was completely unresponsive–like a living corpse. If the Soul–Reaver Ghost King struck him, he would be nothing more than a human target.

Whoosh!

Julian’s Primordial Energy had recovered during the brief pause. He blasted forward, and the entire auditorium trembled as a streak of brilliant light tore through the air.

“Old b’stard, we didn’t finish earlier. Let’s see what you’ve got!”

The beam of light shot toward the space between Leander and the Soul Reaver Ghost King, but halfway there, a streak of black cut across the sky.

A withered palm slammed down from above.

Julian’s expression tightened. He raised his hand and met it head on.

Boom!

The two clashed midair, their feet pounding against empty space as they were forced backward. A trace of black mist lingered on Julian’s palm. His expression darkened.

The Sun–Devouring Ghost King withdrew his hand, one arm folding behind his back as he sneered.

“Not good!”

Julian suddenly realized.

He turned sharply toward Leander.

Too late.

The Soul–Reaver Ghost King, his claw wrapped in black energy, had already reached Leander. His hand shot toward Leander’s abdomen.

Julian’s eyes nearly split with fury.

They were over a hundred yards apart. And the Sun–Devouring Ghost King blocked his path.

He couldn’t reach him in time.

“Die!”

The Soul–Reaver Ghost King’s killing intent burst forth. Primordial Energy surged wildly as his five fingers sliced across Leander’s stomach like sharpened razors.

Screams erupted from the crowd below. Many of the girls cried out in horror.

That monster was so powerful. If Leander took that blow head–on, wouldn’t he be ripped open and killed instantly?

Even Yvette and Ginny, who trusted Leander deeply, clenched their hands tightly, unable to stop themselves from crying out.

Clang!

The claw swept across, but instead of blood and torn flesh, sparks exploded between them.

The sharp clash of metal rang through the air.

“What?”

The Soul–Reaver Ghost King froze, stunned.

His attack hadn’t met flesh.

It had felt like striking an indestructible slab of steel.

He focused his gaze.

Leander’s shirt at his abdomen had shredded apart. His lean, well–defined abs were exposed–four faint white marks visible across

them.

But there was no blood.

Not even a scratch.

In the distance, the Sun–Devouring Ghost King and Julian both stared in disbelief.

“What a terrifying body…” the Soul–Reaver Ghost King muttered. “Even those who entered King Phase through body–forging don’t possess such flesh. Could he be a god–level being?”

His expression hardened–then quickly steadied.
