“Look at this place! It’s so lively!” Adrian seemed happy with the inn, looking at the smiling patrons.Meanwhile, the rest of the group was still nervous. They then looked around and realized there were many people in the inn. Everyone sat in groups, chatting away happily and unbothered by their arrival. They could finally relax now.Adrian waved to a server. “Over here, sir! We’d like to order!”“Coming!” a server called out.Adrian observed the inn. Although this place belonged to summoners, it was decorated similarly to a human inn. The rules of conduct were the same as well.A few seconds later, a summoner working as a waiter came by their table, looking happy to see them. “I’ve never seen you guys around here before. Is this your first time in Aquanic?”“Yes, it is,” Adrian said, “We heard many things about the Aquanic Tribe, so we thought we’d check it out.”“That’s great!” The waiter smiled.Compared to summoners in other places, the summoners here were less prejudiced

Seeing their cluelessness, Adrian felt helpless. Why in the world were his traveling companions like this?After lamenting the situation, he said, “Because there’s some business that’s beneficial for us there, of course.”“Business?”The group was still confused, but Adrian could not be bothered to explain right now. They could only follow his directive. Everyone silently bowed their heads and started on their food.After having their fill, the group headed toward East Mount Ground. They had to leave Aquanic’s city stronghold to reach East Mount Ground. The establishment was located on a mountain in the east outside the city and thus called as such.As they got closer to East Mount Ground, they noticed that there were fewer trees. The trees were replaced by fortifications for construction. Nobody was guarding the area. It looked barren as if it had been ages since anyone came here. Everyone was surprised by the sight.Dragon Prince asked, “This is strange. Where are the people? D

Clang!A clashing sound of metal rang out as the shadow and Adrian collided. A powerful shockwave was formed and spread out.Whoosh!Adrian was shocked by the attacker’s level of strength. It was on par with his own. He had not expected the person to be so powerful.‘Well, I guess there’s no need for him to go easy then!’ Adrian got ready to throw his second hit.But just as he was charging, the shadow stopped. “Are you a human?” it asked.Adrian was taken aback. He answered after a beat, “You’re human too?”He then felt a little foolish. Of course, only another human would ask him such a question. He felt silly to have asked such an unnecessary question.The shadow finally revealed itself to be a man. As he walked toward Adrian, he saw that it was a young man in his early 20s who looked like a scholarly individual. If not for the powerful attack earlier, Adrian would have assumed that he was just a regular man.“Who are you?” Adrian asked, not bothering to be polite.After a

Adrian fell silent.Vardala walked over and said, “Seems like you were deceived, sir. Come on, let’s get out of here.”“No.” Adrian refused, leaving everyone confused.Feeling doubtful, they asked, “What…”Adrian stared at them with a mysterious glint in his eyes. After a moment of thought, he asked the man, “Can we stay here for the time being?”“Of course, you can!” the man said, looking a little excited.From the man’s tone, it was clear that humans were welcomed here. It had been a long time since another human had arrived. There were only about 100 humans living here and they could barely fend for themselves when faced with danger. Now that outsiders were coming, these people could help them. Moreover, Adrian was powerful.The man then led Adrian’s group to the base. As they followed the man deeper, Adrian was surprised by what he saw. He never expected somewhere that looked so run-down from the outside to look like heaven on the inside.They first passed through a valley

Everyone looked toward the source of the voice and saw a solemn-looking old man walking toward them. The locals did not dare to look right at the old man holding a long cane. Just one glance and it was clear that this man was chief of the valley.“Chief Haris!” Atticus quickly greeted the man with a smile. He then said, “These are some friends that I’ve just met. They’re looking for a place to stay, so I thought—”“No!” The old man rejected fiercely before Atticus could even finish.“But—” Atticus wanted to say more, but Haris did not give him a chance.Haris waved and said with finality, “We are not discussing this!”“I’m sure we can discuss this, sir.”Adrian stepped forward, smiling. He tried to be as polite as possible, but Haris remained unyielding.“No means no!” Haris thundered, “Who do you think you are to be doing as you wish?!”Nobody expected him to be so stubborn. Nevertheless, Adrian continued smiling. He stretched out his hand, holding out something. Haris was goi

“Please make yourselves at home. I have to go now!” Atticus dashed off.Watching him, Adrian realized it was the right decision for them to come here.Dragon Prince then asked, “Wasn’t that too much, Adrian?”“Yeah, I think you’re at a loss here.”“You gave away an essence stone just to stay for one night? That’s foolish, sir.”The other members agreed with Dragon Prince.Adrian simply glanced at them and said, “Do you guys really think that I’m at a loss? Didn't you notice how panicked Atticus was when he left? He let slip that something happened here a month ago.”Everyone looked at each other. They had noticed what Atticus had said.Adrian walked ahead and patted Dragon Prince’s shoulder. “It’s useless to say these things now anyway. Our priority right now should be resting up. We’ll find out if there’s anything going on here once night falls.” He then smirked mysteriously, leaving the others confused.*As darkness draped the sky, the valley fell silent. Suddenly, a shado
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 2283
Atticus had said nothing when Adrian asked about the building earlier. Therefore, his instincts told him that this building was the most important place in this valley. They had to pay attention to it. Unexpectedly, someone really came, and Adrian was excited about what was going to happen.The shadow, which was a man dressed in all black from head to toe, walked toward the building. He soon arrived outside the building and put his hand on the front door. What everyone saw next shocked them.With a rumbling noise, the door opened. The noise was so loud that Adrian’s group was surprised that the locals did not react. To them, it sounded like the noise had spread across the entire valley. No matter how deep they were sleeping, they should be able to hear it.However…‘Why did nobody notice the sound?’ Adrian wondered. He instinctively thought that something had happened to the locals. He and his followers were the only ones who could do something about this.Nevertheless, he was not

As everyone looked around for Adrian, another bellow came.Adrian was charging up to attack again. “I’d like to see exactly who you are!”He was ready to expose who the man was, but the latter merely scoffed.The man smirked. “Please. Do you think you’re worthy of fighting me?” He then attacked Adrian.In this next exchange, Adrian and the man were equally matched. Adrian realized the man was pretty strong, and a chill ran down his spine.Adrian said, “I think I am.”As the intense battle broke out, Dragon Prince and the rest were shocked. Unable to help Adrian, they felt helpless.“We can’t just sit back and watch. We have to find a way to help Adrian!” Dragon Prince said.“But they’re too powerful. We’re no match for that level of power. How are we supposed to help him?” Vardala asked.They were in a tough spot and felt troubled. Just then, they heard a rustling noise from afar. When they looked closely, they saw a group of people charging toward the battle. The group was go

The Daemon Emperor was startled."What is happening? This power..."Formless energy was surging forward, pressuring his nerves and senses.Below, Andy and the others trembled uncontrollably."Who is it?" Finnian stared into the crimson mist.Even Andy was horrified, his gaze locked on the unfolding scene in disbelief, and asked, "What is this? What exactly is happening?" At this moment, Adrian abruptly opened his eyes.Apparently, the Daemon Emperor had once conspired with Adrian's subordinates to ambush him.However, Adrian had managed to annihilate the traitors and sealed this Daemon Emperor. Now, fate had brought them together again."If I killed you once, I can kill you again." Adrian stood tall, his white robes fluttering in the air.The Daemon Emperor was stunned into silence."This is impossible! You're not that mortal boy!""Is that so? In this life, your end has come, and so has the era of the daemons." Adrian's voice was calm yet resolute. He stretched out his han

Adrian's face hardened at the words. He despised threats above all else. While he understood what the mysterious entity desired, he couldn't yet fully comprehend its implications or find a way to counter it. His only choice was to focus on growing stronger.Within the hot spring, waves of raw, terrifying power surged and crashed violently against Adrian's body.The force, though beneficial, was brutal and overwhelming. Adrian's body struggled to endure, cracking as though it were disintegrating."Arghhh!"A heart-wrenching scream echoed as Adrian's flesh was torn apart and his aura gradually dimmed."Ahhh!"His agonized cries echoed once more. He could no longer withstand the pain.In the distance, a towering figure appeared and sneered. "What's this? Can't take it anymore? Pathetic. Humans are truly the epitome of stupidity."Suddenly, Adrian erupted with an explosive surge of energy, and in that instant, he broke through to the pinnacle of the Void Stage."Hmm? He actually b
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4813
At that moment, the crowd was speechless.Adrian had ascended as if it were the easiest thing in the world.Faced with such a sight, no one could say much beyond admiration. Even if the Holy Son claimed Adrian had cheated, many secretly wished they could cheat the same way.Lacking Adrian's means, all they could do was envy him.Finnian chuckled. "Haha! You really caught us all by surprise, kid. Still, I'll count this as you repaying me a favor."For Finnian, the outcome couldn't have been better. With a broad smile, he seemed to have achieved his desired result. Adrian's successful climb was all that mattered to him.Once Adrian had vanished, the focus shifted to the rest of the group and their trials.When Adrian opened his eyes again, his entire body ached, but an oddly comforting sensation flowed through him. Surveying his surroundings, he realized he was now in a pond."Where am I?" he asked.Though uncertain about the place, Adrian knew he had cleared the trial and arriv
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4812
The onlookers stared in bewilderment, their faces etched with confusion as they struggled to grasp the unfolding events.Meanwhile, Adrian seethed with barely contained rage. This wasn't his first encounter with such torment. Every few steps he ascended, another trial awaited.To Adrian, the relentless punishments felt suffocating. Yet he pressed on—this was the final stretch of the climb. "Adrian, hang in there!" Andy shouted, urging him to conquer the last step. To Andy, reaching that final step symbolized Adrian's growth. He had witnessed Adrian's remarkable resilience countless times and held unwavering faith in his potential. In Andy's eyes, Adrian was destined for greatness. Adrian's expression turned cold as he locked his gaze on the steps ahead. Determination flickered in his eyes. "If reaching the top guarantees a reward, it doesn't have to be me up there. As long as someone makes it, that's enough." With that, he shifted his focus to the void above and formed
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4811
Adrian felt as if every nerve in his body was beyond his control. A deep sense of grievance filled his heart as the divine thunder from the void relentlessly crashed down.Rage surged within him, but under the onslaught of endless forces, he felt weak and constrained.Still, he had no choice but to press forward. He knew victory was within reach if he could endure a little longer—giving up now would mean death.If he fell, the shame and humiliation would crush him.Below, the Holy Son and others waited, eager to see him fail and mock him. This left Adrian no option but to push forward, striving toward the void above and his ultimate goal.The violent forces continued to bombard him from the sky.With every step, the thunder's impact intensified tenfold. His soul, already battered from a fierce battle with a horde of beasts, now felt as though it was dragging his exhausted body forward.Anyone else would likely have succumbed to despair. After all, under such immense pressure, ev

The oppressive forces descending from the void seemed determined to halt Adrian’s ascent up the staircase.Yet he refused to yield. To him, these overwhelming challenges were merely obstacles to conquer.He pressed forward with relentless determination.Thunderbolts continued to rain down, but the ominous red light from before did not return—a relief, as he never wished to endure its crushing weight again.The memory of that light still haunted him, leaving a lingering sense of helplessness. Its suffocating pressure had drained his strength, reducing him to a gasping, powerless state.Despite the toll on his body and mind, Adrian remained singularly focused on reaching the final step. His burning desire for greater power drove him forward, unwavering and resolute.Step by step, he ascended, reaching the 95th step in what felt like an instant.Only five steps remained. His gaze locked onto the summit, and a wild glint lit his eyes. A daring idea sparked within him, consuming his
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4809
Adrian pondered his situation, his cold gaze reflecting simmering frustration. Yet deep down, he recognized that whoever had designed the staircase was far from ordinary.Creating such a formidable trial required unimaginable power.Even a pinnacle Void Stage expert—or perhaps someone of the Multiply Stage—might bow in reverence before the ladder's creator."He won't last much longer. The divine lightning in this void is utterly destructive. In moments, he'll be reduced to ashes," sneered the Holy Son, his sharp eyes gleaming with malice.To the Holy Son, Adrian's demise was inevitable. Adrian had dared to offend him, and he was certain such audacity could only lead to death.Adrian caught the Holy Son's words and cast him a frosty glare. His intent to kill was unmistakable, though now wasn't the time.The staircase was no place for personal vendettas—eliminating him here would require careful planning.He also knew the Holy Son carried seals of immense power. A reckless move co
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4808
Finnian's sharp gaze reflected a hint of admiration. "Kid, you owe me a big favor this time. You'd better treasure this opportunity."Adrian remained silent, unsure how to respond. His cold eyes revealed no emotion, though he fully grasped the challenges ahead.Fear was a luxury he couldn't afford—he'd come too far to back down now.Suddenly, a streak of red light surged from the void, hurtling toward Adrian with terrifying speed. His eyes widened in shock as the crimson beam struck him, slamming him against the staircase.Caught off guard, Adrian collapsed, sprawled helplessly on the steps.The crowd below watched in astonishment. No one had expected his seemingly indestructible body to be overwhelmed so easily.The Holy Son sneered. "Haha! It seems he's triggered some kind of taboo. Let's see how arrogant he is now!"His voice dripped with schadenfreude, his eyes gleaming with malicious satisfaction as he relished Adrian's struggle.Despite the crushing force, Adrian refused
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4807
"What exactly is up there pulling me so strongly?" Adrian's expression hardened as he pondered the mysterious force drawing him upward.A surge of violent energy erupted across the sky, crashing down like a raging storm.Adrian advanced cautiously, each step deliberate and precise.Gone were the reckless strides of before—now he moved with steely determination, fully aware of the lurking dangers.He'd learned that the void's formidable forces seemed to target him directly, compelling him to proceed step by step. Any attempt to bypass its unseen barriers would provoke a devastating strike."Ridiculous," Adrian muttered. "If I've chosen to climb, nothing will stop me."The void's relentless power intensified.Bolts of thunder hammered down mercilessly, battering Adrian's body. Yet fear never crossed his mind.What was there to be afraid of?To him, the divine thunder wasn't an obstacle—it was a crucible, a tool to temper his body and strengthen his resolve.Despite the storm, A
