Mitch led the way and the others followed behind him. They followed the directions on the map and began heading into the Vicente Primeval Forest. They did not run into the bloodsucking bugs, and the whole journey went rather smoothly. Vernon looked at the map excitedly. "Unbelievable! We've made a new record! We're sixty kilometers deep in the forest now!" "That's it, right up ahead!" Vernon pointed at a grassy plain in front of him. Everyone hurried over and began clearing the plain of all the grass with the tools they had prepared. After that, they began to dig up the soil with shovels. Soon enough, they uncovered the round cover of a well. The cover of the well was different from those found in the city. It looked ancient and was extremely heavy. No one could lift it with their own strength. Wilbur wove the rope he had brought through the hole on top of the cover, tying a firm knot. Everyone picked up the rope and pulled it together and were finally able to lift the stone
Kean said, "If it's worth a lot, I'm bringing a crystal or two back with me. Who knows, I could make some good money with it." He walked over to grab one of the glowing crystals, but a huge spark of electricity struck him the moment his hands came into contact with them. "Argh!" Kean's hands flew backward as his eyes widened in shock. "What was that?" Vernon said, "Be careful of what you touch, Vernon. There might be powers none of us know of." Wilbur said, "Alright, I'll lead the way now. Everyone, stay behind me." Wilbur took the lead, and everyone followed behind him. They made their way down the path, which widened as they kept going. Before long, the entirety of Vicente Deep Waters stood before them. Wilbur looked at the map on his phone as he walked and was shocked to discover that the castle looked exactly like it did on the map. Moreover, the walls and ground were both very clean with no signs of wear or decay. It was important to note that the last civilization
The soldiers glowered at Wilbur, who knew that things were about to take a turn for the worse. Wilbur knew that he could not stay for long, but Vernon said, "I've found it! Pull the rope, and the door will open." Wilbur charged over and pulled the rope. The door eventually opened, and he said to the others, "Go on, hurry up!" The explorers rushed into the last secret room, and Wilbur followed behind them as he let go. Bam! The huge metal door swung shut, blocking the soldiers outside. "They've gone inside, Captain. What should we do now?" The captain of the soldiers glowered. "They're not getting out of here alive either way! Release the water!" A passage appeared in front of the men in the room. There were two chests at the end of the passage, one golden and one black. Below the passage were the waters. There seemed to be something moving in them as the men ran to the podium at the end of the passage to open the chests. The golden box contained a pile of gold, and th
"Get down!" Wilbur shouted amidst the quaking, and everyone scrambled to lie on the ground. Aite grumbled, "What the hell is this, huh?" Just then, a huge rock fell from mid-air, falling down toward Aite. "Aite!" Eli threw himself on top of his brother instinctively. Wilbur dashed in front of the two brothers, summoned his thunder cleaver, and struck the rock with it. The black aura blew the rock into countless tiny pebbles, scattering them into the waters below the passage with a series of splashes. Following that, countless giant rocks appeared and fell from above. Wilbur raised his hand, the Light Gloves emitting a white glow that enveloped his body and formed a glowing white shield. "Argh!" Wilbur roared out in fury, and the shield began to spread. It was not long before all the explorers were covered inside it, and the huge rocks that struck the shield were reduced to dust at once. The other rocks fell down the sides of the passage, splashing into the waters. A whi
"No way!" Wilbur stared firmly at the tree on the wall across from him. He did not know what kind of being this tree was, but Wilbur would never leave his fellow companions behind like that. "I brought them here, so I'm bringing them out. All of them." "Oh, is that so? You seem rather arrogant just because you've got the protection of the middle dimensional elites, don't you? Let me tell you this, young cultivator: no one who has broken into this place has been able to leave alive before, and you are no different!" The tree let out a cry of fury, and the dozen or so branches surged downward. Yet just as they touched the light shield, they were turned to dust. "What? Is this the middle dimensional law? I see, only the Arrow of Arlot will be able to kill you, then." Upon saying the words, a huge branch reached out. It turned into a man radiating black miasma all over in mid-air, who grabbed the air in front of him as a bow and arrow appeared in his grasp. The next second, the
Wilbur glowered as he said, "You're forcing my hand, and you're going to die!" He channeled the power of light into the dragon, which turned white as it grew in size before charging into the air. "Roar!" The white dragon flicked its tail, and all ten Arlots disappeared into black miasma. At the same time, countless branches reached out from the tree to form a net to trap the white dragon. The net shrank and the white light faded before it was completely covered by the branches. Just then, however, the net of branches was blasted apart and reduced to dust in a huge explosion as the white dragon emerged from within, flying around in circles before charging downward. "We've won!" Aite said excitedly. Vernon asked, "What should we do now, Mister Penn?" "Everybody retreat to the starting point of the passage and pull on the rope with all your might to open the door." "Got it." The men rushed back to the door as the white dragon flew above Wilbur's head in circles. Yet the
The gigantic tree laughed loudly. "Wilbur Penn, your powers truly fascinate me. All of you shall be sacrificed today and remain here forever!" The tree waved its branches, reaching out for the dragon. At the same time, Wilbur leaped into the air with the first dragon cauldron in his hand, melding himself inside of the white dragon altogether. The first dragon cauldron continued to release dragon aura above Wilbur's head, and Wilbur's Light Gloves continued to channel the power of light into the white dragon's body. The dragon swung its tail over hard, breaking the branches off the tree before grabbing the tree trunk with its claws. With a loud explosion, a huge opening appeared in the trunk of the tree. Wilbur wasted no time, controlling the dragon to charge downward as it absorbed all eight explorers into its body. "Are you guys alright?" "We're fine," said Vernon. "But the door won't open, and we have no way out." The waters had risen above the passage then, and they cont
As the passage became narrow, the white dragon shrunk in size as well. It finally charged out of the well, dispersing into dragon aura as the nine men toppled onto the ground. The next second, Wilbur grabbed the cover of the well and dropped it on top of the opening. A golden seal appeared, flashing brightly in the air. The ground rumbled several times, then everything went back to normal. Mitch, Vernon, and the others had just gotten up and immediately fell back onto the ground from the quaking. "What…" "What on earth just happened?" The explorers looked at each other in shock. "Whew!" Wilbur collapsed onto the ground as his chest heaved, flicking off the water on his face. Had it not been for the formation sealing the tree in place, Wilbur and the others might not have been able to escape. After all, what happened just now was far too shocking. The tree's branches had stretched all the way to the opening of the well. What kind of being was that tree even? Wilbur w
Faye was clad in a beautiful wedding dress, hardly needing any blusher for how red her cheeks looked. Wilbur was also looking dapper in a fine tuxedo, and the bride and groom went around toasting to their friends one by one. Both their parents were overjoyed, knowing that their children had finally ended up with someone so wonderful. Everyone else was also brimming with smiles, drinking up a storm as the night went on. These people were all friends or subordinates of Wilbur and wanted nothing more than the best for him and Faye. There was no wedding emcee, and the ceremony was extremely simple, but the atmosphere was incomparable as everyone was nothing but smiles. The reception lasted all the way until late into the night, and even the newlyweds' parents got a little tipsy. The banquet ended at last, and the guests ushered Wilbur and Faye into their new bedroom. The newlyweds sat down facing each other, locking eyes. Faye lowered her head bashfully, and Wilbur looked
It was evening on Sealake Island when Wilbur returned. He stood on the long bridge, overwhelmed with emotion as he let out a hint of his aura. The island grew abuzz at once, and a series of familiar figures fought their way into Wilbur's line of sight. Wilbur smiled, stepping onto the island slowly. His smile grew as he came to the square, taking in the sight of Faye, Elsa, Faron, Shepard, and many others. Everyone else stared back at him, unable to hide the emotion on their faces. It had been so long since they had seen Wilbur, and there was no way for them to reach him. Words could not describe how much they had worried about and missed him. "I thought you were never coming back, Wilbur." Faye was the first to speak. Wilbur walked up to her, taking her into his arms. "I'm sorry. It'll never happen again. Everything's over now, and I'll never leave you again." Faye's heart soared as she broke out into overjoyed sobs. Everyone else was nothing but joyous as well. Fo
Bahamut, being a reincarnation of Kaiser himself, came slithering toward Wilbur. They both turned into their human forms, and a fierce battle broke out once more. Kaiser channeled his energy into Bahamut's body, giving Bahamut the upper hand over time. At last, Bahamut severely wounded Wilbur with a blow of his sword, causing Wilbur to fall from mid-air. "Hahaha!" Kaiser appeared suddenly then, laughing loudly. "Nice work, Bahamut." "Thank you, Master." Bahamut retreated behind Kaiser, looking at him coldly. He whipped out a dagger from his sleeves all of a sudden, driving it deep into Kaiser. Kaiser flipped around sharply, grabbing Bahamut's wrist and glowering at him. "Have you lost your mind?" Just then, the Dark Lord's voice sounded from Bahamut's throat. "You've stopped me many times now, Kaiser Fern! There's no way in hell I'll let you become the ultimate elite!" A furious Kaiser reached out to grab Bahamut's head, sucking him into his body. An explosion sounded throu
Just then, the Cold Lord muttered a spell. A series of snowy mountains descended from above, one of them striking Wilbur and Augheimer as the Cold Lord cackled. "Haha! Is that all you've got?" As his words rang through the air, the snowy mountain exploded with a loud boom into countless icy fragments to reveal Wilbur and Augheimer, standing tall and completely unaffected. "What?" "These imbeciles!" the Flame God shouted. The air around turned into a sea of flames at once, burning away relentlessly, but they vanished as soon as they came in contact with Wilbur and Augheimer's defense barriers. The Earth God shouted, "I'll settle this!" He muttered a spell, and the ground cracked open as Wilbur and Augheimer fell into a bottomless abyss. The Earth God smirked, and the crack began to close up. Yet just a few seconds later, the ground exploded as Wilbur and Augheimer flew back up. The Tornado God cast a spell to bring about a fierce gust of wind filled with countless razor-sh
The next second, Wilbur's Magic Dragon Blade made a gash in the air. The two men then wove through the gash, making their way to the lower dimensions from the upper dimensions and returning to Earth. The gash closed itself up, and a powerful wave of black miasma surged into the oceans from the heavens. It cleared up within a few minutes, and Earth was turned into a dark space. Several big fissures appeared in the heavens as the evil gods descended on Earth. The Blood God, the God of Destruction, the Cold Lord, the Flame God, the Earth God, the Tornado God, the God of Bloodlust, and the Snake God—all eight evil gods had descended upon Earth at the same time. Wilbur summoned the broken pieces of the Light Armor from the Fire Dragon Ring. The pieces radiated a white glow as they hovered in mid-air, and Wilbur quickly used his mind to put them together before wearing the Light Armor on his body. "Hahaha!" The Blood God laughed loudly. "I guess the universe dimensions aren't all
Hailey and Kayleen ducked out of the way before the pillars of light reached them, darting up to Sade at the last second as Hailey drove her sword into him at the same time Kayleen did the same with her spear. Hailey glowered at Sade. "You're the one who's really despicable here, Sade. Say goodbye to the world forever!" "Arghhhh!" Sade's body exploded in a flash of white light, disappearing out of sight. Hailey and Kayleen both got down on one knee. "At your service, Masters." Just then, Wilbur and Augheimer looked at the two ladies at the same time. Augheimer said, "At ease. You can both go back now, your work here is done." "Yes, Master." Hailey and Kayleen disappeared the next second. Just then, a fierce wind rolled over as a pillar of white light descended from the heavens as Odysseus appeared in front of the two men. "Wilbur Penn and Augheimer. I’ve finally found you. Tell me where the dimension guardians are, and hand them over!" A gleeful Odysseus reached out t
Sade threw his head back, laughing loudly. "No one has the right to replace me, no one! I'm the real dimensional guardian, the leader of the galaxy!" Just then, two figures appeared in the sky. They were Hailey and Kayleen, two of the other dimensional guardians. Hailey was holding a long sword as she scowled at Sade below her. "You went against the rules of the universe and changed its functions, Sade. And now you've killed Wilbur Penn, the cultivator who was supposed to replace you. For that, Kayleen and I are going to kill you today." Sade smirked at those words, not looking shocked at all. "I knew you two would never let me go for killing Wilbur. But he's already dead, and I still need to maintain order in the universe as a dimensional guardian. Even though you two may hate me, you can't kill me or you'd be going against the rules of the universe too, and have to be sentenced by Mister Richardson. Trust me, you won't end up in much better of a state than I'm in." Just then
Augheimer asked out of confusion, "What? To the upper dimension? All of a sudden?" Wilbur looked flustered, he replied, "There's no time to explain. Odysseus will be here in a while, and we won't be able to escape." Sade looked at Wilbur. He told Augheimer, "He's right. Believe him. Why would your close friend lie to you?" "That's right. He's a dimensional guardian, Sade. I begged Sade to go back in time here. Hurry up and come with me, Augheimer!" "Thanks, but if we're leaving, we should at least go to Buck Town and meet Felix one last time, right?" asked Augheimer. Wilbur looked at Augheimer in the eyes, there was a sense of familiarity that welled up all of a sudden. Wilbur instantly realized Augheimer had a secret in Buck Town, and perhaps it was very important to Augheimer. He helplessly nodded and replied, "Alright, we'll go to Buck Town first." Then, the three of them came to Buck Town through a transportation array. Augheimer grabbed Wilbur and ran. He said, "Run! F
"Damn it! Your second wish was supposed to be mine!" yelled Odysseus. Odysseus once captured a dimensional guardian's servant by chance, and he used him as leverage to obtain his final two wishes. His first wish was for Sade to guide him to the most powerful power of light spell. His second wish was for Sade to lead him to the Death Scepter. Odysseus mastered the power of two types of laws, the power of light and the power of death. He quickly grasped the intricacies of the power of death due to his unique talent. Odysseus wielded the might of both supreme spells with the Death Scepter and the most powerful power of light spell. Therefore, Odysseus gained immense confidence. His capabilities far surpassed most upper dimension cultivators, but he remained in the middle dimension. His desire was to once again capture a second dimensional guardian servant. Odysseus planned to acquire the Death Cloak by obtaining the servant's wish. Ultimately, he would combine the Death Cloak, D
