Arthur's Dao heart had reformed but it had cost him a great amount of cultivation he spent over the years. But he didn't seem to care about his lost progress.
He teleported to the low tier places where mortals lived in the majority and fought constantly. Arthur secretly sneaked into a kingdom and applied as a soldier. Hiding away all his belongings, he dressed as a soldier and acted as one.
Arthur fought wars against other warring kingdoms and learned the way of a soldier. His Dao heart solidified once again and his cultivation reached Xiantian once again without a tribulation. He steadily moved up to higher tiered empires and he became famous with the name of the Mysterious Soldier. Anybody that offended him would die and the person would vanish with a medieval head armor to prevent anybody from seeing.
Kill orders were sent out by various clans and sects because they lost disciples and core disciples that offended him. Any ambushes would fail and result in losses with only a small handful escaping.
Eventually, he once again reached the divine realm within a hundred years and regained all his previous abilities while approaching the peak of Divine in thirty years.
Arthur sat in a small room in a soldiers barrack quietly with nearby soldiers snoring. It was an eerie silence but he had gotten used to it.
"I have reached the peak of the divine realm and have reached great success in the Solider Dao, but I feel like somethings been missing this entire time. Something important," he muttered as he silently pondered.
Suddenly, a massive attack of energy soared towards him. He stood up and swept it away as he coldly glared into the void. The barrack collapsed and the night sky was revealed. Hundreds of floating people emitted divine auras that caused the Qi in the air to boil.
"HAHAHA! Kip Ronnie, you never thought we'd eventually find your origins from the Windbreaker clan did ya?!" yelled a sinister middle-aged man.
"I knew, but does it matter?" he calmly said.
"Although I can't offend the Windbreaker clan, I can kill you since you no longer have relations. These are all the people you indirectly offended and now it's time to receive justice!" yelled the middle-aged man who seemed a bit crazy. Arthur's face turned gloomy because half of the people are peak divine which is where he's at. Winning or escaping are slim.
Just then, the low leveled soldiers from the multiple barracks charged out like they were about to confront an enemy. They blood thirsty auras and roars scattered the silence.
Arthur suddenly had enlightenment seeing the ferocious soldiers. His dao heart suddenly reached completion and his aura soared. Dark clouds filled the clear night skies and thunder roared.
"I see! I understand now!" yelled Arthur as he figured out the missing part of his dao.
"I've only comprehended the lifestyle of a soldier, but I've never comprehended the essence of what a soldier is. A soldier is one that fights with comrades that work together to defeat the enemy. A soldier rushes in without fear and strikes down their enemy even if they lose something. A soldier retreats not to lose dignity and honor, but to one day retake everything!" he yelled as his knight armor was fully equipped.
Soaring to the skies, his aura continued to soar and the nearby Qi was pulled into his body. A domain spread out for miles around him and the scenery changed to the grasslands.
Dao domain?!" yelled the middle-aged man in fear. When one completes their dao, they're able to form a domain that is from the dao and gives them a greater advantage over their opponents.
The grasslands looked just like on Earth. Thousands of fully knighted soldiers lined up with flags above their heads. The front lines had spears and shields while the ones behind had swords. The commander on a horse raised his sword and everyone aura was released that gradually merged into a large one that equally counteracted the divine cultivators on the other side.
The commander charged and everyone began running while roaring. Their auras became wild and fierce like a raging bull running towards it's opponent. The earth trembled and the air boiled. The sun fiercely radiated the metal armors on their bodies. All of the divine cultivators felt their cultivation and strength greatly suppressed.
The middle-aged man grit his teeth and fumed in rage. The only way to break a domain is to have a higher cultivation than the opponent or have a domain strong enough of your own. But the only way to get a domain is to have a complete dao which is rare for those below or in Divine realm. It's still rare even in Duke Divine realm which is above Divine Realm and a little uncommon in Grand Duke Divine realm which is above that.
They could forcefully attack the domain but it's very difficult to break a domain of a cultivator that's at the same rank as you even if you have multiple people of the same rank attacking since one with a domain is countless times more powerful than one without at the same realm and rank. Unless one has a divine offensive item, then it'll be very difficult.
Divine offensive items are a bit expensive to purchase in the market. The middle-aged man had already spent most of his life savings and treasures to group up these people to kill him since they want compensation as well even if they hate Kip to the bones. He never thought about purchasing one because the opponent only had defense armor and the fact that he didn't have enough savings leftover.
"Everyone attack the domain! It surely can't take our attacks!" he roared as energy seeped from his body.
However, dark clouds with lightning entered the domain and fierce winds blew out. The middle-aged man's face turned pale from fear.
"R-run! It's heavenly tribulation!" yelled a young divine cultivator.
Heavenly tribulation can't be stopped nor can anyone enter it's area of effect unless they wanna die from it's wrath. Unless one has surpassed the heavenly laws, which is the God Divine that's six entire realms above the Divine realm, then it's impossible to withstand the heavens as they get stronger the longer you survive.
The tribulation did not seem to care about the domain soldiers but fiercely roared at the intruders in the tribulation domain. Huge lightning bolts descended that caused a divine cultivator to explode into bits of flesh. Cultivators screamed and ran in different directions but were quickly shot down.
