"Mister Wind Sprite!" Wilbur stared as Wind Sprite left, falling into a silent daze. Indeed, Wilbur had pulled his strongest move in the battle with Wind Sprite earlier. If the other two guardians were even stronger than him, it would be quite impossible for Wilbur to win. But Wilbur did not want to lose. He had gone through so much to get here and would have to wait another ten years if he failed now. Ten years was a long time for a cultivator and getting banned from entering the Vicente Primeval Forest over his defeat was humiliating. Wind Sprite's words replayed over and over again in Wilbur's head as he walked along in the forest. Wilbur did not want to lose, and he gritted his teeth. "I'm sure there's a way to turn the tables!" After giving it some thought, Wilbur lit up as if he had an epiphany. "That's it! The Dragon's Altar!" The Dragon Move came from the Dragon's Altar, and Wilbur had acquired many great things from the altar. Maybe he would be able to get someth
It was important to note that grace points were hard to come by, and spending ten thousand of them on a hundred years of cultivation that Wilbur was not even sure he would be able to completely absorb was a huge risk. What if he only managed to absorb ten, or twenty years out of everything? He would be making a huge loss. Wilbur even felt like the cultivation in the Dragon Soul Essence was a special form of energy. It was not like the kind of cultivation that one practiced through hard work and effort and would disappear quickly once it was released. That meant that it would only provide a short-term boost to Wilbur's power. If that was the case, Wilbur did not think this essence was worth ten thousand grace points, not even if it would give him a thousand years of cultivation. However, Wilbur was now deep inside the Vicente Primeval Forest and there was no one here who could help him. He did not exactly have many options here. Wilbur purchased one Dragon Soul Essence and watched
The blonde man said, "I'm always up for a challenge, but I'll never lose. Do you get it?" "Of course," said Wilbur. The man got up from the ground, reaching out to grab the enormous handle hovering in the air. "Remember this: I'm not like Wind Sprite. You only get one chance with me, and if you lose, you can't step foot into this forest for the next ten years." "I respect the rules, but I'm not losing," Wilbur replied. Wilbur summoned the thunder cleaver. "Oh, can I please know your name?" "My name's Jerome." Wilbur and Jerome stood across from each other. The air seemed to tense up around them, and it only took two seconds before they both charged at each other. "Have a taste of the Earthly Hammer, young man!" Jerome leaped into the air, swinging the hammer towards Wilbur. To Jerome's surprise, Wilbur did not block the hammer's attack with his thunder cleaver. Instead, he stuck out his left arm, and it vibrated with the Earth-type defensive skill that Wilbur had culti
The dragon aura's immense vibrations sent Jerome flying back several meters. At the same time, Jerome's invisible clone that reappeared within five meters from Wilbur was sent flying as well before landing heavily on the ground. "Oh my, I haven't met an opponent quite like you in the last thirty years now. This time, I'm going to show you what I'm capable of." As he uttered those words, both Jerome and his clone chanted a spell at the same time. Their eyes flew open and shouted in unison, "Platinum Protection!" Immediately, both Jerome and his clone emitted a golden hue. It was a defensive shield that stuck close to the body, and Wilbur saw a form of energy he had never seen before as the shield took shape. This energy looked similar to Wind Sprite's magical tower, which meant that Jerome's Platinum Protection was his version of middle dimensional protection. It looked like all Wilbur had to do was break through the Platinum Protection and he would be able to defeat Jerome. W
Wilbur was shocked to see that Jerome was so powerful that his attacks were enough to shake the Dragon's Safehaven. Throughout Wilbur's cultivation, he noticed that the defensive ability of the Dragon's Safehaven had a huge deal to do with the cultivator's powers. If he activated the Dragon's Safehaven in a lower dimension, no attacks would be able to affect the Dragon's Safehaven. If it was activated against an elite from a middle dimension, the Dragon's Safehaven would be affected slightly. Thus, the Dragon's Safehaven would have cracked under Jerome's continuous attacks with his clone if Wilbur had not obtained the power of light and the power of destruction with the Light Gloves' support. After all, Jerome's Platinum Protection came from a middle dimension elite. Wilbur saw the Jeromes striking at the Dragon's Safehaven in a frenzied state and was overcome with hopelessness. The Dragon's Safehaven might be able to protect Wilbur, but it could only last a minute every time
"Oh, are you surprised too? That means you didn't think I'd pass the test either, did you?" Wilbur's expression was ashen, with murderous intent bubbling in his chest. If Josie had known that Wilbur would never be able to pass this test, this would have all just been a prank on him. This infuriated Wilbur. Why hadn't Josie just told him the truth in the first place? Wilbur was ready to kill, and Josie seemed to be able to sense this. "Uh, W-Wilbur… I think there's been a misunderstanding between us. I can tell you, though, that Senior Fremont said his chosen one would be able to pass the test at the right time. I know you're Senior Fremont's chosen one, but I wasn't sure if you came at the right time as mentioned. Think about it, you've defeated Jerome, which already proved your strength, right?" Wilbur let out a long breath, feeling most of the rage in his chest subsiding along with it. He was shocked for an instant after that. The murderous intent earlier did not seem to have c
That would mean that the consumer of the Dragon Soul Essence would get to keep however much of the hundred years of cultivation as he could, and directly get ahead in his cultivation. Who would turn down something like that? It was just a shame, however, that most people did not get such a chance in their lifetime. Wilbur had been lucky enough to get the chance. Now he was feeling a little wistful. If he had known that the Dragon Soul Essence could get him a hundred years of cultivation that stayed in his body for good, he would have been willing to contribute even a hundred thousand grace points for it. Upon leaving the left formation core, Wilbur came to an empty piece of land. Upon making sure there was no one else there, he sat down on the ground cross-legged before taking out the first dragon cauldron. It levitated into the air as Wilbur released waves of dragon aura tainted with black miasma into it. With the support of the first dragon cauldron, all of the black miasma
However, absorbing the full hundred years of cultivation would mean having to take on the full brunt of the previous owner's consciousness and spirit energy. Wilbur was unsure if he could endure it all. He would not only be losing the hundred years of cultivation if he was defeated, but possibly even losing his own powers. It was definitely a high-risk, high-reward situation. Wilbur was plagued with uncertainty, unsure of which choice to make. He sat there and thought about it for the entire night. Finally, he came to a conclusion when he opened his eyes the next morning. He was going to absorb a hundred years of cultivation! The consciousness and spirit energy in the Dragon Essence Soul might be powerful, but it would not be able to take over Wilbur's body for at least two minutes. Those two minutes were crucial. Within those two minutes, Wilbur would use the Dragon Move to channel his spirit energy to rest. If he managed to drain all the spirit energy out, absorbing the h
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
