The balls of light exploded, sending Gray and Carl flying through the air. They landed heavily on the ground and coughed out a mouthful of blood as the barrier vanished completely. "What the… How?" Milton stared at Wilbur in disbelief before turning to Gray and Carl. "Are you two alright?" Gray's chest heaved up and down. "We're alright. Mister Penn actually went easy on us." He then turned to Wilbur and said with a raspy voice, "Thank you, Mister Penn." Despite the fact that Gray and Carl were rather despicable, Wilbur and Felix were supposed to be taking over the Chris family. Thus, Wilbur felt like he should limit himself to teaching Gray and Carl a lesson about who they were going up against so they would never dare to challenge Wilbur and Felix in the future. Wilbur raised an eyebrow at Milton. "Do you have anything else to say about the battle, Elder Milton?" Milton turned back to Wilbur, getting down on one knee with a hand on his scepter. "I, Elder Milton, humbly we
Firton turned to leave. Babbit stood there with the feeling of resentment toward Wilbur growing stronger within him. Babbit might be at peak Exalted level now, but he had to spend five thousand years to achieve that. The energy aura in the middle dimensions was different from other dimensions because of its core. The energy aura here was the strongest, and any cultivator who had come to the nine major towns with a bit of talent would be able to get to the Exalted level through hard work. The Exalted level was a special level more powerful than any form of cultivation across the dimensions. It was a stage of cultivation naturally formed by the energy in the core of the universe. The Exalted stage operated on the theory that as long as you worked hard enough at something, you would become a master at it. Most cultivators who had come from other middle dimensions to the nine major towns would usually spend three thousand or more years cultivating before they reached the Exalted lev
Despite so, the thought of Wilbur being able to own a dimensional treasure filled Edmund with endless resentment. Wilbur had to die! And since Edmund would not be able to use the bronze mirror, it would be destroyed. Edmund was a decisive man. After giving it some thought, he decided to head to the Chris family quarters to kill Wilbur right away. He would also destroy that bronze mirror while he was at it so that he would have nothing to worry about anymore. Over at the Vermillion Bird Mountains, a series of volcanoes were radiating an intense heat that melted the snow on the ground and scorched the earth underneath. Wilbur and Felix walked between the mountains, and Felix said, "Master, you can now cultivate in the Vermillion Bird Mountains. The energy aura here may not compare to the Azure Dragon energy aura, but they both have special features of their own. I'm sure you'll be able to improve your cultivation quickly here." Wilbur nodded. "Senior Horne, I think you should tak
The night breeze whipped through the air, and the figure in black looked up at Wilbur. "I knew you were a dragon clan cultivator. I underestimated you all this time." Wilbur's eyes were filled with shock as realization hit him, but he had guessed about as much from a while ago. "You can drop the act, Lord Edmund." "You've got the wrong guy. I'm not Edmund." "Oh, really? Who else could you be, then?" The man in black summoned a long sword, his robes whipping in the air as he stared at Wilbur coldly. "I'm not going to repeat myself. A dead man has no reason to know my name." He shot out, charging toward Wilbur once more. Wilbur knew that having his true identity exposed in the middle dimensions was extremely dangerous, as each of the nine major towns had its own Dragon Slayer Organization. If Wilbur did not get rid of this man right now, he would be hunted down in the future. At the thought, Wilbur did not hesitate to release the dragon aura in his body. The Magic Dragon Blad
After avoiding a dozen or so attacks in a row, Edmund had slowly gotten closer to where Wilbur was. He leaped off a rock and was right in front of Wilbur the next second. "You're a dead man, Wilbur Penn!" Edmund stabbed his sword in Wilbur's direction, moving so quickly that it pierced right through Wilbur's chest before he could even react. Edmund lit up, thinking that the attack had taken Wilbur down for sure. The very next second, however, the Light Armor showed itself in front of Wilbur's chest, a faint black glow flowing amidst the white light. "The Child of Light!" Edmund was stunned by the sight of the Light Armor. Back in the day, news of the battle between the Child of Light and the Dark Lord that caused them to land in the lower dimensions had spread through all the middle dimensions. It had rocked everyone, as both parties never returned after that. That was why Edmund was so shocked to see the Light Armor, his face twisting into a murderous expression. "You bast
A white dragon appeared with a roar, knocking Edmund into the air before attacking him with its claws and tail several times. Eventually, the dragon was crushed by Edmund's energy aura, who flicked the blood from the corner of his mouth away as he stared at Wilbur in shock. "I can't believe you broke out of my golem curse. I knew you were a dragon clan cultivator, hahaha!" Edmund threw his head back, laughing loudly. "What are you laughing at?" Wilbur asked. Edmund's smile faded, looking at Wilbur. "I'm laughing at myself, of course. All this while I was jealous that you were a dragon clan cultivator, but now I know that I was just envying myself all along!" "What?" Disbelief flickered in Wilbur's eyes, which only made Edmund laugh harder. "Yes, you heard me right. I'm a dragon clan cultivator, too. Oh, Wilbur. You thought you were the only dragon clan cultivator here, didn't you? Hahaha! Well, that means nothing to me now." Black energy aura began to radiate out of Edmund
The pressure on him was greatly relieved, so Wilbur intended to take advantage of the moment to channel his spirit energy into the seal and break through the third seal. Thhat way, he would be able to unleash fifty percent of the dark energy within him once the seal was broken. Wilbur believed that if he could achieve that, he would stand a chance in his fight against Edmund. However, Edmund, who had been waiting impatiently, suddenly struck Wilbur on his left chest. The immense energy carried in his powerful palm strike instantly broke the third, fourth, and fifth seal within Wilbur. Wilbur was sent flying and crashed heavily to the ground. The purest dark energy of the world broke through the seals and surged into Wilbur's body like a tidal wave. It nourished his body immensely within a short period of time. Edmund charged forward as Wilbur was still on the ground, and he unleashed the Black Dragon Spell. A black dragon claw descended from the sky toward Wilbur. Wilbur used the
"Argh!" Overwhelmed with grief, Edmund coughed up a mouthful of blood and collapsed to the ground. Wilbur, who had been holding on, also could not resist any longer. He spat out blood too and slumped to the ground. The howl of night wind filled the air as the Vermillion Bird Mountains returned to silence. Wilbur and Edmund, one slumped on the ground resting, the other lying prone, had both exhausted their energy. It was hard to believe that their battle had come to a draw. "It looks like I made a mistake. I shouldn't have pried into your past. I can't believe I still couldn't defeat you even after exhausting all of my clone's energy," said Edmund. Wilbur suddenly remembered something when he heard that. He turned to look at Edmund and said, "Oh, right. You have another clone. If you tell that clone to come over, perhaps you can kill me." "Hahaha!" laughed Edmund abruptly. He said, "There's no need. My clone and I share the same devoured energy, and now that it's exhausted
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
