No living creature should be flying about in this weather, and yet a pair of silhouettes were traveling through the air. They were encircled by a golden barrier, lending them a godly look."Look, what's that?" one of the soldiers shouted when he saw what was in the air."The fuck? Is that a person? Or a god?"The soldiers watched in shock as the silhouettes flew in their direction. One was a man, and the other was a lady. The man was as handsome as a deity, while the lady had fiery red hair and was clad in silver armor. She had a voluptuous body and a face that belonged to an elf.However, the woman stood behind the man like she was a servant. They were none other than Nox and Senami."Holy shit, they're people!""Quick! Send a smoke signal! We have an invader here!"The sentries quickly lit up a beacon tower and sent a smoke signal to the other soldiers. At the same time, Nox was traveling through the air, and he looked at the encampment below. His eyes gleamed coldly, and he s
The spear contained destructive power, and it stabbed dozens of soldiers. A cataclysmic force slammed into the poor soldiers. One blow was all it took to make the soldiers explode, and blood splattered everywhere."Dear lord…""He's a monster! A monster!""Call in the reinforcements!"The other soldiers shouted in fear when they saw Nox take out dozens of their comrades easily. Even Senami was stunned. Seeing so many of her countrymen die made her cry. "W-Why do you do this? Why do you kill my people?" she roared."Your people tried to invade my nation and abused my people. They should pay for that!" Nox said coldly."But you've killed so many. Karma will come for you!" Senami said with reddened eyes.Nox delivered a hard slap across her cheek, sending Senami flying away. She rolled across the snowy ground, and blood trickled down her mouth."You think you have the right to lecture me?" Nox would not stand for this. He would still hit her even if she was a goddess of war and th
The soldiers were stunned to hear their general call this woman Ms. Senami. They mused, 'Ms. Senami? She's the daughter of Lord Senas and the goddess of war?'They looked at Senami again, and the soldiers who had seen her photos recognized her. General Veron looked at her with surprise. "Ms. Senami, w-why are you here?"Senami could not answer him. She could not tell him that her troops were annihilated, nor could she tell him that Nox had enslaved her, and her fate was his to control.All she could say was, "General Veron, listen to me. You need to retreat. Do not fight this man!""What?" Veron could not believe what he was hearing. Even his soldiers looked confused.She repeated, "I said, you need to retreat! Do not fight this man!"They thought, 'What's going on with Ms. Senami? We have this guy surrounded, but she wants us to retreat?'Veron mused over Senami's orders before looking at Nox coldly. He was the only enemy around and Senami seemed frightened, so Veron knew what
The mention of Legend Realm stunned the soldiers. They tried to back off, but it was too late. Nox spread his arms and pressed his hands down. "Realm Barrier, open!"A golden web spread out of Nox and covered all the enemy soldiers underneath, including their encampment. The moment the barrier appeared, everyone felt a wave of suffocating pressure.The soldiers, Senami, and even Veron felt like they had a mountain on their shoulders."Oh, my lord, who is he? How can he cast that kind of technique?"Veron was starting to feel a little fearful seeing his comrades surrounded by the golden barrier, but he was a general, so he calmed himself down quickly."Calm down. He's just one man. He can't take all of us down. Tank squad, at the ready! There's no way he can survive a tank barrage!"The tanks moved ahead, rumbling as they did, and they aimed their cannons at Nox."Are you sure we're shooting, general? There's barely any distance between us. If we do, we might hurt our own men," o
"We hit him, general!" one of the tank units yelled in excitement, watching the smoke that was billowing in the air.The other soldiers were elated. "He's finally dead!""He was strong, but he was no match for our tanks!"The Snowground soldiers thought Nox was dead. Even Veron, who was watching the air above, smiled. "Today was not your day." He approached Senami quickly."We've killed the bastard, Ms. Senami. You're safe."Senami probably did not hear Veron. She was staring at the smoke in the sky, muttering, "Is he really dead?""Don't worry, Ms. Senami. A Legend Realm is no match for our tanks," Veron reassured her when he noticed the blank look on Senami's face.However, the smoke in the sky started to shake, and a wave of terrifying pressure came forth. The moment Senami felt it, she shouted in panic, "Oh no! He's still alive!""What?" Veron looked up at the sky, and what he saw was a whirlpool of winds that dispersed the smoke."You think you can kill me, maggots?" Nox'
The only things left on the ground were the bodies of the soldiers Nox had killed before. His Fiery Lotus Golden Eye not only could burn spirits, but it could also vaporize its targets until not even a morsel was left.This was an example of it. Hundreds of people had been vaporized. Looking at the bodies on the ground and the destruction Nox brought, Senami cried in agony.Nox flew down after he was done killing everyone."You demon! Why did you kill them? They were innocent!" Senami rushed at Nox like a madwoman and thumped his chest.However, Nox slapped her again, and Senami was sent flying away once more, just like what happened last time.Senami rolled across the ground and stopped. Her cheek was now bloodied."You damned fool. Do not try to challenge my nation's authority. You have no moral high ground!" Nox said coldly as he looked at Senami.They were at war. Nox represented Faeast, while Senami represented Snowground. Senami thought Nox killing Snowground's soldiers wa
It was as if even the blizzard feared Nox's authority. Senami watched from her prison, staring at Nox dumbfoundedly. "What kind of monster is he?"The cultivation went on. About an hour later, Nox had absorbed all the natural energy here. He seemed to have changed. His looks and aura had morphed significantly.A loud bang later, Nox's eyes snapped open, and they brimmed with light that shone brighter than ever. He raised his hands and muttered, "The natural energy here is still not enough. I need more to cultivate this manual."Nox pushed his hands down and flew down the mountain.Senami could not even move or talk because of the golden barrier. When Nox came down, he waved his hand to remove the barrier. Senami roared angrily, "What do you want to do, you devil?"Nox smiled. "You barbarians tried to invade us and steal our martial arts manuals. What do you think I will do to your country?"Senami said, "You can kill our soldiers, but you're just one man. You don't have the power
The goddess of war could not believe she ran into a demon like Nox, but it was too late to go back. The wheels of fate had started to turn. Her fate was in Nox's hands as well, so there was nothing she could do.Grasping her, Nox flew toward Snowground.…The blizzard was growing heavier in Darkbog Mountains. The winds were howling and biting, while the snow was pelting everything that stood in its way. A large troop of Snowground soldiers were driving toward the border.This troop was a spectacle to see. There were hundreds of tanks in the lead, opening the path for everyone behind them. At the end of the troop was armored cars. There were at least ten thousand soldiers here.In the distance, a military jeep was hurtling toward them at a great speed. It screeched to a halt about a few hundred yards away, and two Snowground soldiers hopped out."We have news!" the soldiers quickly shouted.The Snowground troop stopped as well. One of the warriors said sharply, "Who are you? How
"You're going nowhere! Die!" The Sovereigns chased after the spirit, and a hundred rulers followed. They trapped the Titan's spirit and ripped him to shreds."Holy shit! That's the ancient Faeastian Sovereigns for you!" White Tiger roared with pride. He was on the roof of a tower somewhere.Emperor Elijah narrowed his eyes and exchanged a look with the other Sovereigns. He hurled the remaining essence of the Titan's spirit to White Tiger and stuffed him with it. The energy filled White Tiger up, and he ballooned. Black, rancid energy came out of his body, and he fell into madness.Nox cast Heaven's Demise and sealed White Tiger's consciousness. The Ice Temple Lord, realizing what the Sovereigns were trying to do, encased White Tiger in a coffin of magic ice."This is an impressive underling you have, Nine-State Lord. Devouring spirits gives him power. Anyone else would've lost their minds and become a killing machine, but White Tiger's already mad to begin with. There's no further
"The third kind of Emperor uses natural energy, the power of Yin and Yang, and the elements to become one. Since they use all kinds of elements and energy to become an Emperor, they are practically invincible."The Ice Temple Lord was excited. "So, you're saying I'm the strongest kind of Emperor?"Nox was speechless. "No, what I was trying to say was you took the wrong path. You could've absorbed the energy in the heavens, but you absorbed the Yin energy in the ground. You're stronger than Frostmir, but his level was higher, so you'd still be no match for him." Nox pursed his lips."Eh?" The Ice Temple Lord was disappointed. He thought he could be on par with Nox once he became an Emperor. The Ice Temple Lord wasn't the only one who gained power. The Ice Temple cultivators did as well. Black Tortoise, White Tiger, and Vermilion Bird gained a lot of power, too.Vermilion Bird was now a Flawless Supreme, Black Tortoise was an Advanced Supreme, while White Tiger was an Intermediate Pi
The fact that Nox could cast Sovereign Seal showed the Ice Temple Lord a new level of power. The Sovereign was more terrifying than the gods. 'No wonder they could rule the world in ancient times.'The ancient Sovereigns and rulers of Faeast attacked their enemies. The fate of Faeast gathered over their heads, piercing the clouds that hung over them. The weaker monsters were all slain, and Emperor Hans pierced the pharaoh with his spear, returning him to dust.Emperor Blade killed the god of another ancient civilization. The evil energy possessing them was purified. Moments later, the only gods left were the Titans. Unlike the possessed gods, the Titans were ancient cultivators.Even if they didn't master any spells or techniques, they'd trained their bodies to their absolute best. The Sovereigns and rulers didn't have much advantage against these enemies.These spirits were only summoned through the relics and the remnants of energy left within. Their bodies were gone, and their s
The talismans were Magic Mountain's Forbidden Art, and Nox had fused them with Ultimate Sun Dragon Manual. Nox's mentors back in Mystia had taught him the Sovereign Seal earlier than expected.Their goal was simple. If Nox became the Sovereign, he could use the seal to command all the natural energy around him. If he didn't become the Sovereign, he would teach the Sovereign how to use the seal.The Sovereign Seal was a Saintly technique and the most ancient technique around. It was stronger than a Celestial technique.A golden seal brighter than the sun slowly rose into the air. It was the Sovereign Seal.As it appeared, natural energy gathered around it. The energy flew into the relics Brundela took from Faeast. Within a museum not open to the public, a bronze sword started to tremble as natural energy flowed into it. That got the attention of a professor."That sword belonged to Faeast's Emperor Elijah! What is going on?"A silhouette came out of the sword, and his aura was maj
Back in the navy command center, Fergus got the drone footage of Brundela's latest development. There were a few generals from the Nox Army with him. They could see that the monsters in the capital were far stronger than the ones they took out."It's a pity the capital is too densely populated. We have the weapons, but we can't use them." Fergus slammed the table in frustration. Even if the capital were to fall into enemy hands and the people torn apart by the monsters, Fergus could not order his men to fire at the capital, or things would be bad for them.Fergus could only open fire if the monsters were in a no man's land."Commander Parrish, the lord has orders. We are to keep the waters guarded. Once the capital's crisis is over, we are to make our way to the port and give humanitarian aid," a Nox Army general said telepathically. He just got Nox's orders."Is that so? Then Nox can stop this crisis." Fergus' eyes shone. He had no idea what Nox was planning, but he was the Sovere
Demons were walking the lands of Brundela. Legendary creatures were roaming the streets as if the end of days were here. The resurrected monsters were causing chaos everywhere. When the Titans showed themselves, despair washed over Brundela.There were too many monsters running around. Even after the Twilight Order and Ice Temple cultivators sent out everyone they had, it still wasn't enough to stop these creatures. The monsters went straight to the council hall, and so did the Titans.The Ice Temple Lord created a Magic Ice Formation and kept using Forbidden Arts and mystical artifacts to fend off the enemies. He had already done his best."You have to do something, Nine-State Lord. I can't hold on much longer!" the Ice Temple Lord said telepathically.Though monsters were about, they were not a threat to the Ice Temple Lord. he could leave anytime he wanted, but he had a deal with Nox. If he were to desert the battlefield, he would face a hell far worse than he could imagine late
Their targets were the relics around the altars. The moment the whirlpool showed up, the black energy conjured black walls and kept Brundela on lockdown, cutting off all communications.Possessed by evil spirits, gods from ancient civilizations came back to life. In the underground graveyard, the dead came bursting out of their coffins, and skeletons with phantom flames flickering around them charged at the holy knights and James' secret agents.Nothing more needed to be said. The holy knights' leader led the charge. The other knights resolved to fight to the death as they battled the skeleton gods.James and his secret agents fired off at the enemies, but the bullets did nothing to the skeletons. All they managed was to light a big spark. Only grenades and howitzers could deal damage to them, and even then, the damage was light.The battle was fierce. Though the knights did not fear death, they were still weaker than the prehistoric gods. These skeletons were nigh invincible, and
Nox was hovering higher than the Ice Temple Lord, and he got everyone's attention."Who's that?""It's a Faeastian!""My God, it's the Nine-State Lord!" Nox was known throughout Faeast and the world. Brundela's council members had recognized him the moment he showed up. They had nothing but fear for gods, yet Nox was the strongest man in the Mortal World, so they respected him.The clouds in Brundela's skies were hanging heavily over the ground, and the icy aura they radiated was making everyone shiver. Winter seemed to have come early for Brundela. The temperature was dipping fast.Back in the control center, intelligence agents were watching the surveillance footage closely, and they noticed the altar. The Twilight Order and Ice Temple cultivators were there, strengthening the altars' seal the best they could. There were soldiers guarding the altar as well.For some reason, the secret agents had a feeling something bad was going to happen. Murphy's Law, as they said.Suddenly,
A sliver of energy flew out of the puppet and gathered natural energy around it. Then, the temperature rose at a blistering rate. Fortunately, Bard's reminder came just in time, and Vermilion Bird was prepared for this. She led her team away from the spot.A pillar of fire engulfed the building, and heat waves shot off in every direction, lethal and deadly. The light eventually faded, and all buildings in a few hundred yards were razed to the ground.If Vermilion Bird had killed the puppet without thinking just now, she would have lost all her men and suffered serious injuries. "That bitch! I'm going to make her into a human swine one day! I'll give her hell!" she cursed.Bard gasped. 'Yeah, women can be really terrifying.' Not one General was a normal person.This incident didn't escape Nox, of course. He saw it through his divine sense. "Heh, you can't fight the flow of history? You say that, Aphrodite, but you've done the same thing more than once. Schemes and plots when your ey
