Wilburn instantly went down on one knee and greeted, "Greetings, mentor!" The Aqua Dragon was taken aback in the lake. It said, "It's too early to call me your mentor. You're not worthy of being my student yet." "Huh?" Wilbur scratched his head and asked puzzlingly, "But didn't you say…" "I said you're qualified, not that you're now my student." Then, the Aqua Dragon quickly swam. Splashes could be heard. After the waves subsided, three watery figures appeared on the lake. Those figures were performing three different cultivation forms. The Aqua Dragon said, "If you want to be my student, I need to test the strength of your fist first. Your punch must be able to channel the water within a ten-meter radius, just like this watery figure. Secondly, I need to test your leg strength. Your kick must make a wave that is twenty meters high. Thirdly, I want to test your ability to manipulate energy. I want you to master your dragon aura and create a vortex that is at least twenty me
Wilbur looked at Aqua Dragon, then frowned and said, "Mister Aqua Dragon, how did this happen? If you don't want to take me as your disciple, just say so. Why tamper with the water?" The Aqua Dragon replied, "I didn't tamper with anything. You're just lacking in strength. You should look for the reason within yourself." "Impossible! If there was nothing in the water, how did my energy disappear?" "There is indeed a formation in the water. It was the formation that absorbed your energy." "Since there's a formation, how can I be tested properly?" The Aqua Dragon looked at Wilbur and waited until he was quiet before speaking slowly, "Young man, nothing in this world exists in a completely tranquil state. When you possess a certain level of strength, every strong person you encounter will have their own unique characteristics. If you can't adapt to this, you will soon be defeated by them, or even lose your life. That's right, this formation is a protective one that I've set up. W
At this moment, Wilbur finally understood the Aqua Dragon's intentions. Immediately, he controlled his dragon aura and formed it into the shape of a large dragon. In the next second, the dragon plunged into the water, swimming rapidly, and a vortex quickly formed. When the vortex's diameter reached ten meters, the blue formation reappeared. "Roar!" The dragon let out a furious roar, stubbornly resisting as it felt the water around it press in like walls. Wilbur chanted an incantation and used the Dragon Move. Instantly, a golden pearl appeared out of thin air above his head. The next second, the pearl plunged into the water and merged with the dragon. In an instant, the dragon transformed into a golden dragon and let out a mighty roar. "Roar!" Seeing the vortex grow larger, Wilbur's eyes lit up, and he excitedly said, "That's right, it's now! Third level: Dragon Out of Water!" The golden dragon swam swiftly in the water, then suddenly shot out of the water. In a flash, the
"Alright, I see that you have quite a bit of potential, but you haven't fully established your foundations yet. If you had apprenticed yourself to a dragon of any other element, you probably wouldn't have been able to establish your foundations completely, and you wouldn't have had this chance. Oh well, perhaps this is truly destiny given to you by the heavens. From now on, stay in this great lake, and let me use the power of the Aqua Dragon to help you open up your circulation, allowing you to internalize your cultivation." "Open up my circulation? Internalize my cultivation?" Wilbur felt puzzled, but suddenly, a cool force surged up from the soles of his feet, traveling through his leg bones. This sensation was similar to what he felt when practicing the Dragon Move, and he immediately understood Orkot's intention. Since Wilbur had previously worked on his foundations, his energy circulatory pathways were already somewhat open, but the energy flow was still too weak. However, t
However, due to the persistent disdain and misunderstanding those cultivators from the middle and higher dimensions held toward the lower dimensions, they were reluctant to come to the lower dimensions. Cultivators in the middle and higher dimensions, upon reaching a certain level of cultivation, automatically received a dimensional ring, which was a symbol of their status. In the world of cultivators which was filled with constant strife, everyone wanted to become stronger. The dimensional ring carried the dimensional laws comprehended by the cultivator. Obtaining a dimensional ring, devouring it, or comprehending it allowed one to acquire corresponding dimensional laws. If a dimensional ring was devoured, the dimensional laws could no longer be enhanced. Comprehending the dimensional ring, however, equates to inheriting its dimensional laws, which can be further improved. Thus, the middle and higher dimension worlds were rife with slaughter because everyone wanted to become str
Thus, Orkot would always be nourished by the Water Spirit Pearls, preventing his body from losing moisture for too long as dragons cannot be away from water. Wilbur's coincidental acquisition of the Water Spirit Pearl and his apprenticeship with Orkot seemed to be fated. Standing on the shore, Wilbur looked at Aqua Dragon Orkot standing majestically in the water and cupped his hands in farewell. "Master, I must leave now. Take care." Orkot gazed at Wilbur and said, "I understand. You have your mission to fulfill, and that fellow won’t let you go easily. Continue with what you need to do. Just don’t forget me as your master." "Thank you, Master. Farewell." Wilbur bid farewell to the water dragon and proceeded deeper into Vicente's immortal realm. There were many large lakes in Vicente's immortal realm, and the fragment of the ninth dragon cauldron that Wilbur was seeking was hidden in one of these lakes. Previously, Wilbur might have had to exert great effort to search for the f
Wilbur shook the woman's hand and said, "Yes, my name is Wilbur. Nice to meet you." The woman, with reddened eyes and a bright smile, replied, "My name is Caitlyn. Nice to meet you. I'm from the Allied States." "Ah, the Allied States is a great country." "Perhaps," she said. After this brief exchange, the two fell silent. Wilbur took out the newspaper he had bought at the airport and began reading. The travel newspaper contained information about Kosanto, including an article on its history. It said that a thousand years ago, Kosanto was a forest kingdom, with forests covering 90% of its land. Now, only 30% of its land had greenery, with the western and southern regions turned into deserts. The cities where the people of Kosanto once lived were buried under the sand, and much of the history and culture of these regions was lost. Only a few elderly residents in the desert city of Wrecknam retained some memories of their ancestors' ways of life. Most of the surviving arti
It turns out that Caitlyn's multiple trips to Kosanto were due to a special relationship she had three years ago. Three years ago, Caitlyn met her boyfriend on a flight to Kosanto. They quickly became interested in each other. They traveled together and soon confirmed their relationship. They dated for three years, but two months ago, her boyfriend broke up with her. This ended their relationship, leaving Caitlyn heartbroken and unable to move on. She decided to return to Kosanto two months later, hoping that this trip would help her find closure and move past her feelings. Caitlyn said, "Actually, my ex-boyfriend was also from Dasha, but he was settled in the Allied States, so you know…" With that, Caitlyn choked up again and shrugged helplessly. After hearing her story, Wilbur felt a sense of helplessness as well, not expecting Caitlyn to have such a past. Wilbur nodded and said, "I'm really sorry about your past relationship. I might not be able to offer much help, but I
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
