Someone said in a shaky voice, "We’ve tried to work together before, but it always fails for some reason or another in the end."Ronan nodded, "This time will be different. As long as all of us remember that we'll be the ones who die if they don't, then things won't go up in smoke in the end! I'm not trying to call everyone to arms. I'm just trying to wake all of you up to reality. Once you leave this place, spread the news. Even if no one's leading the movement, everyone will still work together in the end!"Fane opened his eyes at that moment and happened to see Ronan's emotional look. He raised an eyebrow and said nothing. Lourain had been moved by Ronan, and his heart was pounding. "Fane! It's different this time! These people have even offended the above-average warriors with their wanton slaughter. Other than their subordinates, every other warrior hates them right now! This time, everyone has a different mentality. It's a matter of survival now! There's no way they'll have t
Fane frowned as he turned to look at Zubac, "What have you all tried?"Zubac sighed. He felt like Fane was being incredibly stubborn. However, Zubac had always been a mild-mannered man. He did not mock Fane, and patiently continued, "I am of metal attribute. To test if there would be an effect if two different attributes clashed, I attacked together with a wood attribute warrior, but it was completely useless. Just like before, there were just some ripples on the barrier but nothing happened."Fane frowned and continued, "Is there a difference in the ripples if one person attacks or two?"Zubac shook his head, "There's no difference at all. If there were, I wouldn't be wasting my time here. I've been here for five days, and I've tried everything. It's all useless."As he said that, there was a sliver of disappointment in Zubac's tone. He did not know when he would be able to leave the place."Why is this challenge so hard? I even feel like it's impossible to leave this place!"Fa
Lourain frowned, "I'll do it if he's not willing to. I don't care how they'll judge me as long as it's useful."Lourain did not understand why Fane did not want to use him, since he was perfectly willing. Instead, Fane had asked Zubac. He had not known Zubac for that long, but he still asked Zubac instead!Fane turned to look at Lourain and shook his head, "You can do it later. I just want to test something out, so I need the two of you to help."Lourain nodded and said nothing else. When Zubac heard that, he did not know what to say. Was that guy deliberately forgetting everything he said? He had already refused it just now. He was just about to refuse again when Fane spoke up, "I'm not trying to use brute force to break the formation."Zubac frowned. If he did not use brute force or his techniques, then what would he do? Zubac was very confused."Just use your pure attribute to attack! Summon up the power of your attribute to attack the formation! This should be useful," Fane sa
Practically everyone's expressions changed when that was said. That person was right. If they did not find a way to break the formation, they could be trapped there until they die!That was a fate that was worse than death. They would be forced to just wait without any hope other than death! It was something they would never want to experience!"I don't want that. It would be better to just grant myself a quick death than to be completely trapped here until I die!"Everyone was suddenly in a much heavier mood. All those words of mockery from earlier completely disappeared.Bang! The attacks from the two people clashed against the purple barrier at the same time. The purple barrier had ripples again, but other than those ripples, nothing else happened. After a moment the barrier was back to its original state.When he saw that, Zubac could no longer remain calm. He grabbed his own hair as he said, "How could it still be like that?! We clearly…"He could not bring himself to contin
Fane coldly explained, "Rather than ask me, we should just try it out. If we can't succeed, then we'll figure something else out."Those words were enough to console Zubac. Zubac nodded before he started to summon his attribute again. Gray energy and golden energy started to get closer and closer in the air. The two energies got closer to each other under their control!The two energies touched, and the golden energy started to mix with the gray energy. The two of them widened their eyes. Could they really fuse them? Before anyone could get excited, the golden energy immediately exploded!Even though the explosion did not harm the two of them, it still meant that they had failed, and the two energies could not be fused. Zubac shook his head in a despondent manner, "It looks like this is a failure too."Fane quietly looked at where the explosion happened. At that moment, the two energies had already dispersed, and the explosion was no longer there. It was as if nothing had happened.
"It's different! It was different from before! Oh my god, there's finally something different! Someone shouted out.Even though the purple barrier just caused ripples before returning to its original state, this time was still different. Before this, the ripples only lasted for a few moments. This time, it made even more ripples than before, and it lasted for longer as well!This time, no one doubted Fane anymore. Practically everyone rushed over. Those results were basically the biggest progress in the past five days. Before this, nothing happened no matter what they tried."How did you two do it? The two of you were trying to do something for so long. How exactly did you cause so many ripples on the purple barrier?"Everyone there was incredibly curious. They had looked into it for so long and tried so many things, but nothing happened in the end. There had been no hope at all. That was why everyone felt so defeated. That was why some of those people mocked everyone who was tryin
"Listen to my orders and attack together!" Fane's clear voice could be heard everywhere.There was a loud explosion. Following that, everyone started to hear cracking. Right after that, the purple barrier started to crumble inch by inch!A wave of distortion started to swallow everyone there. Fane widened his eyes. He knew that they had succeeded! The Attribute Trap Formation had finally been broken!Fane immediately activated the blank token and a red thread warped around Lourain's wrist. As time started to quickly distort, everyone was sent away at the same time!This time, the transfer lasted for two hours. When the two of them touched ground again, they found themselves in a luxurious hall. Twelve round pillars were holding the hall up, and there were seven stages in the middle of the hall with colorful boxes on them.There were at least three hundred people in the hall. Fane and Lourain's arrival had not attracted any attention at all. People were regularly being sent over.
The plump man could not help but purse his lips, "Greene, others might be afraid of you, but I'm not! Aren't you just taking advantage of the fact that your fellow disciple is a warrior at the peak? Mine is too! Let's see whos' more important!"Greene got quite angry as he stared right at the plump man. The two of them looked like two roosters that were about to fight. If they were not in a restricted area, a brawl would have broken out.Fane looked up into the sky. This place was similar to the plaza from before. There was a large scroll in the middle with all the rules written down as well. Fane read the rules and immediately frowned."With my luck, I might end up with an empty box. Wouldn't all my efforts be wasted?" Fane said helplessly.There were seven stages in the middle of the hall, and all seven stages had differently prized wooden boxes. The wooden boxes all had different colors, and the points required for them were all different. The higher the stage the box was in, th
There was a heavy rumbling as the door slowly opened. A boundless sense of energy seemed to come from it.A few of them looked inside. Other than the green light, they could see nothing. The light completely obscured their sight. If they wanted to look inside, they would have to step in themselves.On the way there, Fane had already talked to Lourain about it. Lourain wanted to see what the legendary Valley of Enlightenment was like. That was why Fane asked for two spots.The three of them exchanged looks with each other, and they did not hesitate to step forward together, entering the door.The power of distorting space suddenly pulled the three of them in. The space around them started to spin rapidly. They did not know how much time passed, but it felt like a whole century before the space slowed down in front of them. Then, the sense of weightlessness disappeared as their feet landed on solid ground.The three of them had not been sent to different locations and arrived at the
Zayne scoffed, "Alright then, how do you want to work together?"He wanted to see what Fane was trying to do.Fane did not waste any time, "Both of us have all three keys, and we can open the door. Ten people can enter the door anyway. I just need two of those spots.Zayne looked at Fane meaningfully, "You sure know quite a bit."Fane even knew that only ten people would be allowed through. He seemed to have done his homework.Zayne took out his purple key from his storage ring. At that moment, all three keys were there. As long as all the keys were placed together, the gateway to the Valley of Enlightenment would open."If you only need two spots, then I don't mind working with you," Zayne looked at Fane meaningfully, but he quickly added, "However, make sure you don't cause any trouble during the important moments."Fane smiled before he said, "I've always been someone who keeps to my word. I'm more worried that you'll cause me trouble instead. There are many geniuses in the V
The two of them knew what that meant. Their eyes met, and worry was evident in their eyes."Is it Fane again?" Zayne said with a frown. At that moment, the first name that popped up in his head was Fane.Only Fane would truly be a big problem for them. Seymour's expression turned sour. He suddenly felt like Fane seemed to be his Achilles heel. Fane could pop out at any time and put him in a difficult spot."That's right! It's me!" At that moment, a voice was heard from afar. The two of them looked in the direction of the voice and saw five figures appearing in the air.This time, Fane did not have a disguise on. He was facing everyone with his real face."It really is you!" Zayne's face completely soured at that moment. Even if they were meeting for the first time, he was already incredibly sensitive to Fane's name.Nothing good ever happened when Fane was mentioned and Fane had actually appeared in front of him."How dare you!" Seymour shouted angrily!He walked forward to sta
When Shin and the others saw that, they were speechless. That person who had looked down on them was completely bound and on the ground at that moment. He looked pathetic.Fane quickly walked toward Warren, reaching out to pull off the mask to reveal his face.Fane controlled his energy, reducing the destructive power in Warren's soul. After the pain diminished, Warren slowly woke up.He looked up and saw the one person he never wanted to see in his life. He lost his voice as he said, "Fane?! It's you!" He almost bit his tongue as he spoke.Fane smiled and nodded slightly, "Yes. It’s me.""No wonder, so it's you! Where's Presti then?" Warren looked up and said.Fane raised an eyebrow and shot an incredulous look at Warren. Warren immediately understood what happened, and his whole face turned pale, "He's dead!"Fane nodded. There was nothing much to hide. Warren gulped, suddenly feeling like his thoughts from earlier were an absolute joke at that moment. He had even been think
After seeing that, there was a surprised look on Warren's face. However, he quickly pushed back that surprise. Even if that man was skilled, he would just be an above-average warrior. Above-average warriors were like paper to him!"Brat, it looks like you have some skill. However, that means nothing in front of me. I'll show you right now what a warrior at the peak is!"Right after he said that, he circulated his true energy around his feet. Red energy started to frantically blow away the dust on the ground. He lunged into the air incredibly fast.Fane raised an eyebrow before he started to form seals with his hands. Countless seals danced around in the air, and a chain appeared.That chain looked like a black dragon as it danced in the air.Warren scoffed in disdain. It was just a petty trick from an above-average warrior in his eyes. That chain would shatter in just one blow.He did not even bother thinking about it as he raised the sword in his hand. A silver ray of light quic
He leaped forward and landed in front of those four. Fane had already noticed Warren a while ago, but Fane relaxed when he saw Warren was alone. If it was just one person, then there was nothing to worry about!"Presti really is a piece of trash. He couldn't even get you!" Warren said with a sneer.Shin clutched his chest and turned to look at Cavill next to him. Cavill nodded slightly and did not say anything. The two of them shut their mouths at the same time as they looked in Fane's direction.Warren immediately felt something was wrong. He turned to look at Fane and saw that Fane was still completely calm as if nothing had happened."Brat, it looks like you're no ordinary person!" Warren said with a sneer.Fane turned to look at him before saying calmly, "Are you here to kill us?"Warren laughed out loud, and his eyes were full of mockery, "What do you think I'm doing here? Do I look like I'm here to chat?"Fane laughed. He could not believe another one turned up so soon aft
When Warren heard that, he felt incredibly exasperated. He mumbled, "It's just Shin, how could there be any trouble? Even if he has some fellow disciples with him, Presti is more than enough. They're all trash anyway."Zayne frowned, and he unleashed an incredibly strong aura that forced Warren to take a step back, "Shut up! Do you think we can afford to be careless right now? We're at the cusp of accomplishing everything right now. We have to be extremely careful. What kind of attitude is this?"Warren immediately shut up and did not dare to say anything. Zayne coldly looked at Warren, and deeply felt like Warren was not someone who could accomplish much. If it was not for the fact that he was useful, Zayne would not even bother bringing Warren through the door with him.Seymour turned to look into the distance. Gray mist filled up the skies, and no one could see the end of the horizon.There was nothing in the skies, and Seymour suddenly started to feel some worry. He was not clo
In front of an ancient stone door, two men were standing there, while another was sitting down and resting.The men who were standing had very stiff expressions on their faces. The two of them looked at each other with animosity in their eyes. It was obvious they were not friendly with each other. The man who was sitting down had his eyes shut and completely ignored the other two."Seymour! You're just the same as Desmond. You can't even get something so simple done. Desmond lost his life. I think you're about to follow suit!" Warren sneered as he mocked.Seymour's expression was dark, and he shot right back, "Warren, stop with those disgusting words of yours! Don't think I don't know what you're trying to do. You're just trying to push me down and take all the credit for yourself!"Stop joking around! You aren't smart enough to steal my credit! Even though Desmond is already dead, he still did the best he could. He was just tricked by Fane. If it was you, you wouldn't even have
Fane frowned. After he reached out to grab Presti's neck, Presti's life ended with a crack.Shin's eyes widened as he looked at Fane with fear. His savior could very well kill him!Cavill started to panic as well. He looked at Fane with alarm. Even though he was thankful that Fane saved the two of them just now, he had no way to tell what Fane would do after this. Fane slowly walked in front of them, and he did not show much emotion on his face.Cavill said in a dry voice, "Fane, you…?"Fane shook his head, "Don't panic. I won't kill you. Let's work together. It's not like only one person will be able to enter after the door opens."Shin looked at Fane with an incredibly inquisitive look. He thought about it before he said, "I… I don't want to work together. I'll give you the key as thanks for saving me. That Valley of Enlightenment doesn't sound like a good place at all. If I enter, I don't even know if I'll be able to survive."As he spoke, Shin had a bitter look on his face.
