In the Yaretzi Mountains, situated at the western boundary of the Wuia Palace, lay the western barrier that protected the entire palace. The area was shrouded in clouds and mist, creating a vast and majestic landscape.Encircled by mountains within and connected to the sea of stars beyond, the universe extended and gradually blended into the boundless void.At this moment, atop a dome in the Yaretzi Mountains, hysterical curses, roars, and screams resonated, mingled with wild laughter, creating a scene of tragic chaos.Marius and Yianni were beaten beyond recognition and imprisoned by a black Nothingness Aura. They were constantly struck by lightning and various forces. They endured the excruciating pain, cursing furiously in a direction.Meanwhile, Mordecai and Dillon suffered heavy injuries, their bodies covered in blood, but they still stood up defiantly. They were struck down but climbed up once again with difficulty.In the void, Taiyi and Yasmina were trapped within a slowly
Boom! Boom!With two loud explosions that echoed through the universe, Quintinus’ transparent formation shattered, leaving two gaping holes. Quintinus, who had been laughing wildly, spun around, his eyes widening in shock.“How dare you?!! You ants…argh!!!”Before he could finish, Mordecai and Dillon’s combined attack sent Quintinus flying. “Mordecai, Dillon!” Taiyi and Yasmina exclaimed in unison.Yianni and Marius also shouted anxiously.Harper, who had been suffering humiliation in the jar, also cried out hysterically, “You two promised to take me as a disciple! No…”Bang!Bang!With two thuds, the Mordecai and Dillon collapsed where Quintinus had just stood. Their bodies twitched as blood spilled from their lips.They had used the last of their strength for that attack. Death was now inevitable, but they felt no regret. Instead, they turned to look at each other and smiled in relief.Mordecai asked weakly, “How long has our rivalry lasted, Dillon?”Dillon spat out a mo
Mordecai pondered briefly, then answered, “He’s impressive!”“Is that all you have to say?” Dillon turned to Mordecai and glared at him.Mordecai chuckled, “What more do you expect? Have you ever heard me praise another before? I’ve never even praised the Waitara Path.”Dillon and Mordecai burst into laughter, though fits of coughing up blood punctuated their laughter.“Don’t die…” Harper cried out in anguish, shaking her head. “James will come soon. He’ll save us and heal you! I’m sure!”Mordecai and Dillon exchanged glances, smiling with a sense of relief.Dillon said, “Sorry, I can’t accept you as my disciple. I already have one, and it’s my principle to never take another.”Harper shook her head, tears streaming down her face. “Regardless, you’re my master! Both of you!”Mordecai chuckled softly, “This girl is carefree on the surface but has many troubles. After this ordeal, I hope she finds peace and moves forward.”He raised his voice and said, “Since you’ve acknowledged
Quintinus seethed with rage after a moment of disbelief. “Are you trying to rebel, Quintus?”“Please allow them to reconcile.” Quintus stood defiantly, no longer submissive. Instead, he had a determined look, prepared to face death.Quintinus sneered, “Ha! You’re a nobody. How dare you speak in my presence? Have I been too kind to you? Leave now if you’re sensible.”He attempted to retrieve his whip, but Quintus held it firmly and resolutely, ready to meet whatever fate awaited him.Quintinus’ cheeks twitched with anger. “Very well. Since you wish to die with them, I’ll gladly oblige.”With a swift motion, he slashed out his right hand, and Caeloros Lights mixed with Nothingness Aura gathered to form a massive green dragon.The dragon hurtled toward Quintus, but he remained firmly in place. A dazzling amethyst-gold light emerged from his body and met the dragon head-on.Boom!The shockwaves from their clash swept the area, rattling even Taiyi, Yasmina, Harper, Yianni, and Mariu
With a scream, Quintinus was enveloped by the explosion. His Caeloros Lights flared up, shining through the blood and flesh. The self-destruction of Mordecai and Dillon severely injured him. His body was riddled with holes and greatly weakened. He coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood, then lifted his head furiously.“You bunch of ants shouldn’t pretend to be heroic in front of me. I’ll fulfill your death wishes.”He spread his hands and summoned nine divine knives around him. They circled him, emanating a soul-chilling aura.Swoosh!One of the divine knives shot straight at Quintus but was deflected by the amethyst-gold light around his body. Quintus soared into the sky, his messy hair framing his fierce determination as he shielded Harper, Taiyi, and Yasmina. He cast a dazzling light barrier to protect them.Quintinus roared, “Your strength has improved significantly. Alright, I’ll start with you.”His nine divine knives shot forward, attacking the light barrier.Boom! Boom! Boo
Pushing Quintus away, Morgott erupted with a terrifying aura and shouted, “Hey Quintinus! Do you remember me, scum?”Quintinus, who had just risen from the ground, glared into the void. However, when he saw Morgott’s face, his anger instantly turned to fear. “Ni…Nihilos? You…”He looked away in panic, rubbing his eyes as if he had seen something impossible. However, when he fixed his eyes back on Morgott, he confirmed his worst fears.The next second, Morgott’s demonic spear pierced through the sky. Terrified, Quintinus transformed into a light beam and fled.With a bang, the demonic spear pierced the spot where Quintinus had just stood moments ago. Having missed its target, it quivered and emitted a sharp buzzing sound.The entire scene fell eerily quiet, the breeze’s whisper clearly audible.Taiyi, Yasmina, Yianni, and Marius were all stunned by the sudden turn of events.Quintinus, who had tormented and humiliated them, had fled the moment Morgott arrived. Could Morgott’s str
Harper stared at Morgott indifferently, refusing to speak.Morgott whispered, “Come on! Just a little to make me look good! You’re one of the main reasons I chose to show up. Otherwise, I would’ve been able to devour a Caeloros God of Nothingness!”Harper closed her eyes sorrowfully. Her usual charm and unrestrained attitude had vanished. At that moment, she was no longer her cheeky and playful self.Morgott looked at her worriedly. “You…”Harper said sadly, “My masters sacrificed themselves to prevent me from further humiliation.”Morgott was startled by her words.Quintus sighed and said, “Mordecai and Dillon performed a very unexpected act of great sacrifice.”Morgott frowned and asked, “Are you blaming me for not acting sooner?”Harper opened her eyes and said firmly, “I vow to be the slave of whoever captures the Caeloros God of Firmament, Quintinus. I will obey every command and repay the kindness with my life. I want to honor my masters’ sacrifices for me.”Her words le
Harper asked regretfully, “So Nihilos devoured Morgott?”Taiyi shook her head and explained, “No. Morgott is Nihilos. Nihilos is Morgott. James must have already discovered his identity before we entered the Wuia Palace. That’s why he didn’t allow him to tag along.”Everyone gasped simultaneously at the revelation.Yasmina said leisurely, “He would take whatever he wanted as his own and is indeed a terrifying entity. If I were James, I wouldn’t feel comfortable allowing him to come with us either.”Taiyi looked at Yasmina and said, “But he’s in here. Did James expect this to happen?”Just as she finished speaking, Morgott cast a large cone-shaped formation around them.Marius asked nervously, “Is he trying to trap us too?”“Stop talking and start cultivating instead.” Yasmina sat cross-legged on the spot and closed her beautiful eyes.Taiyi immediately followed suit.The others glanced at each other puzzledly but also sat down, closed their eyes, and started to cultivate.Mea
