Wilbur faced the crowd as he spoke, "Battling against each other will only result in injury and death. Cultivation is hard enough as it is, and we'll all be much better off this way." Wilbur had seen too many people die since he was just the leader of the Abyss Mercenaries and had a good amount of blood on his hands. That was exactly why he did not wish to fight and kill anymore upon returning to Seechertown. He had wanted to say those words to Jeremy from the start, but Jeremy was in too deep to be saved. Wilbur looked at the dead bodies in the crowd and let out a sigh. Some of those people were from the Owens clan, and Jeremy had done all of this without even thinking of them. The Skull Cult was undoubtedly responsible. Something had to be done about this Skull Cult soon. At the thought, Wilbur said to Matt and Gerard, "Take care of everyone here. I'll be on my way now. I have other matters to take care of." Wilbur left after that, and everyone sent him off dutifully.
Wilbur then hurled the blood clot into the Dragon's Altar. A surge of aura arose, and the blood clot turned into grace points at once. Wilbur smiled at the sight of the three hundred new grace points in the golden hourglass. He traded this for a Marrow Cleansing Pill and a Strongwill Pill. There were not many grace points left after that. Wilbur sighed. There were so many treasures, but grace points were so hard to come by. Every time he had any to add he felt like what he got in return was always so little. He let out a self-deprecating laugh at this. If the contributions to the altar were so easy to come by and the grace points could be exchanged that easily, Wilbur would be ruling the world in no time. Good things never come easy. Exiting the demiplane, Wilbur collected his thoughts and went to bed. He had something big to do the next day. The next morning, Wilbur got ready and came out of his room to see Charles waiting for him. "Is something the matter?" Wilbur as
The two women giggled along as though they had just heard a hilarious joke. Wilbur let out a huff of exasperation. "Uh huh. Which gang leader is this?" The short-haired man said arrogantly, "Listen up! Harry Minetra of Flushing Corp, a company worth billions! Mister Minetra's a well-respected man in Seechertown." Wilbur paused. He had never heard of this guy before. Just then, Faron, Faye, and Elsa were making their way over as they chatted among themselves. The three of them saw Wilbur and crowded over at once. Faron asked curiously, "What's happening here?" Charles hurried to explain. "These people broke into Sealake Island and are refusing to leave." "Oh." Faron shrugged his shoulders. Elsa and Faye shook their heads as well. Just then, Wilbur said, "This guy says he's from Flushing Corp, some bigshot company. Have any of you heard of it?" Elsa shook her head. "Nope, I haven't. I'm rushing off to work. Bye now." She turned to leave right after. Faron shook
Wilbur was at a loss for words. What the hell was going on here? The figure stopped in front of Wilbur, her chest heaving as she gasped, "Help me! Someone's trying to kill me, I can't run anymore." Wilbur took a closer look at the figure. Wait, wasn't this the assassin who had tried to kill him by the lake here before? "How dare you still show your face here?" Wilbur was enraged. What did she take him for? The assassin sighed. "Dude, I had no choice. The assassination failed, and I even had to kill my client. I've been hunted down by my old team for a month now. I can't run anymore. Save me, and I'm all yours." "What the f*ck are you talking about? Do I look like I would do something like that?" Wilbur was nothing but infuriated. This woman was really saying anything that came into her head. However, Wilbur could tell that she was indeed tired and weak. She had been full of energy and spirit when she had tried to kill him the last time, highly skilled and agile. At th
Wilbur looked over. "What are you doing? There are outsiders here. Don't scare them." Harry and his friends were regular people, and Wilbur did not want them to know what this place was really hiding. Meanwhile, Harry laughed even harder. He walked up to Ryder, eyeing him challengingly as he stood right in front of the super cannon. "Oh my goodness! We've got a whole cannon too? This sure is some high-budget production! Come on, fire us a shot! Let's see if it's real!" His friends laughed along as well, as if they were watching a clown show. Wilbur frowned in annoyance. Ryder paid no mind to Harry's jeers, putting away the super cannon as ordered. Harry laughed again. "What's the problem? Are you scared you'll be exposed?" Wilbur shook his head. Ryder's expression darkened even more. Just then, Wolf of Venom chuckled as he shook his head. "That's a pretty cool cannon, but it won't work on me. It'll be enough to take care of this idiot, though. You guys don't look like yo
Wilbur stared at a now-relieved Gertridge. "You don't think I killed Wolf of Venom because of you, right?" "I know. He was just too cocky," Gertridge said with a smile. "What do you mean by that?" "That guy has always been arrogant as hell just because he thinks he's an amazing cultivator and doesn't respect anyone but our leader. It's a given you were going to take him down for acting like that on your grounds," Gertridge said. Wilbur smiled. "How are you so sure I was going to kill him?" "I wasn't. But as I said, I didn't have anywhere else to run. I just let fate decide," Gertridge said, shrugging her shoulders. Wilbur scoffed. "Leave this place right now, and never let me see you again. Got it?" He then looked around him. Harry was still collapsed on the ground, lying in a pool of his own filth. His friends were shivering in a heap, their faces pale and devoid of any of the cockiness from earlier. They were stricken with disbelief. None of them knew where that p
The woman was nothing but friendly, chatting merrily from the back. "My name's Eileen Fall. What should I call you two?" "I'm Wilbur. This is Ryder," Wilbur responded. Eileen smiled. "It's nice to meet you." "What brings you here alone?" Wilbur asked. Eileen sighed. "Don't start. I've been so bored." "Why did you walk instead of driving up? Are you from out of town?" "I can't drive." Wilbur raised his brows. Were there actually people who could not drive in this day and age? Eileen smiled. "I really can't drive. My hands and legs stop listening to me the second I get in the driver's seat." "Ah, I see. That's fine," Wilbur replied with a chuckle. The two of them continued making small talk as the car drove on. Around noon, the driving road stopped near the peak and Wilbur turned off the car's engine. "There's no driving from here. We can only walk now." Eileen got out of the car. "Thank you so much! I hope to see you again." Wilbur waved back. "Goodbye." Eileen
Wilbur stopped in his tracks, looking at a cave deep into the canyon silently. The moon had just come out then, bathing the peak of the mountain in a faint glow. Two figures appeared above the canyon, one on each side. Wilbur frowned, looking to his left. Sure enough, it was Eileen. On the other side, however, was a foreign-looking man. He was wearing red robes, with what looked like a pair of silver shackles on his wrists. Despite being hundreds of meters away, Wilbur could see them clear as day. The three of them seemed to spot each other at the same time. They paused for a moment before both Eileen and the man in the shackles leaped down into the valley at the same time. Both of them, along with Wilbur, stood in a triangular formation, observing each other from a distance. Wilbur was the first to speak up. "To clear up any misunderstandings, should we tell each other who we are and why we're here first?" "Oh, hi! It didn't take long for us to meet again." Eileen
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
