This wasn't because the formation was too powerful but rather due to the intricacies of spatial changes within it. Their blind attacks only led to the dissipation of their mana in the distorted space, failing to break the formation. Only a highly trained expert could directly dismantle it.Zak couldn't help but exclaim, "Such a powerful formation! I can't believe it encompasses the subtleties of spatial changes!" He then shouted, "Formation, everyone!"With this command, the other four adjusted their positions, forming a pattern of the five elements and supporting each other alongside Zak.The five-person formation surged with mana, merging into a singular entity. Their synergy made them appear as one.Another sword ray shot out, more than ten times more powerful than the previous strike.Accompanied by a resounding bang, the entire valley seemed to shake like an earthquake. Those standing behind the Watts were wobbling, swaying as if they could fall at any moment. Even someon
In reality, the true Turk family was an unbroken aristocratic lineage of fox monsters. Therefore, not all fox monsters were born into the Turk lineage. The Turk lineage dated back to ancient times, so it was impossible to trace when the Turks first appeared. However, a tradition of worshiping the Celestial Drago had been passed down in their family. It seemed that their ancestor had a deep connection with Celestial Drago.Unlike other monsters, fox monsters of the Turk lineage seemed to possess an extraordinary spiritual power. This spiritual power's blessing allowed almost all foxes in their family to sense the heavenly arts and hone the immortality arts. Their innate intelligence seemed to surpass that of other monsters. It was difficult for monsters to hone the immortality arts primarily because of the difficulty of achieving 'enlightenment'. When wolves began to ponder why they ate meat, and rabbits pondered why they ate grass, this was the beginning of enlightenment.Unfortu
After that, he accelerated even more, a move aimed directly at Archie!Archie doubted that Adrian could match his power in a confrontation. Suddenly, he saw a sharp sword essence directly aimed at his vital points.This move made him tremble. He had never expected Adrian's attack to be so powerful! The ruthless force it carried brought immense pressure.Instantly, he shifted from offense to defense, channeling all his strength into defense. However, Adrian's strike suddenly became incredibly formidable. In an instant, it arrived before him and delivered a powerful impact, causing Archie to groan. His figure flew backward, almost falling to the ground.Seeing that, Adrian took a swift step forward. Then, a sword was directly pointed at his opponent's neck, inducing a sense of suffocation and completely restraining him.Although Archie was currently in a controlled state, his expression remained sharp, carrying a formidable edge as he stared at Adrian.Adrian smiled coldly and as
Adrian couldn't help but roar. Then, he directly threw the sword in his hand into the sky. The sword exploded, turning into numerous sword rays that swept toward the enemy like a vast net.These countless sword rays formed an impenetrable net, tightly controlling the opponent. Adrian was very satisfied as he believed that the opponent could not escape from his sword net, no matter how powerful they were.It was true!Although the black shadow was swift, its speed became even more formidable now. After circling each other in mid-air for a while, Adrian's intense sword net directly trapped the black essence, making it impossible for it to escape.It could be seen that his strength was formidable!With everything done, Adrian casually walked to the opponent's side. The black essence was now firmly trapped, with no chance of breaking free.Seeing this, Adrian slowly stretched out his hand. Then, he beckoned, and a powerful suction appeared from his palm. It completely absorbed the
Upon hearing Laney's words, the expressions on Demarcus and his son's faces turned unsightly. However, they didn't say much.Lannon was a bit impatient and shouted at Laney, "Why waste time talking to them? Kill them first!"Laney remained silent and looked coldly at Demarcus and his son. Her eyes had a fierce look, and she swiftly released a chilling radiance from her right hand. The cold radiance twisted in the air, transforming into several ice spikes that shot toward Demarcus and his son like a storm of blossoms.Noah stepped forward and said, "As expected of monsters. They strike when the enemy is unprepared, showing the viciousness of their methods! Such monsters must be eradicated from this world. Today, let me experience your methods!"Simultaneously, Noah produced a small pill from somewhere, threw it into the air, and then spewed a burst of air, shooting it at the pill.The pill exploded in mid-air, turning into mist.Afterward, Noah leaped into the air, blended into th
Without any supernatural powers, Demarcus couldn't step forward to help Noah—he could only watch with widened eyes.On the side, Lannon sneered. "So, you're called Noah. I was wondering why your method is so peculiar. It turns out you rely on external elixirs to boost your strength! With no innate talent, you try to enhance your power with external elixirs. It's simply wishful thinking!""Shut up!" Noah's face contorted even more due to Lannon's mockery. "I practice Mystic Elixir's external elixir alchemy. How could you, a wild monster, understand? Ethereal Vitality Pill, lend me your power!"Another pill appeared before Noah. This pill was entirely blood-red, emitting a pungent bloody scent. It seemed to be made from the essence and blood of some creature."The Ethereal Vitality Pill! How does he have such a thing?!" Laney exclaimed, "Lannon, quickly snatch his pill! Don't let him consume it!"Lannon turned into a white light, soaring into the sky. The folding fan in his hands su
Everyone's hearts quivered in fear as they looked at Noah. In just an instant, Noah underwent a tremendous transformation.Demarcus was also astonished, witnessing his son undergo such a drastic change. Waves surged in his heart, and myriad thoughts raced through his mind, harboring endless fear.Simultaneously, Lannon's attack reached Noah.When Lannon noticed the changes, he attempted to retreat, but it was too late.Noah went berserk and manifested a colossal iron fist that struck right in front of Lannon.Lannon was sent flying, blood and energy churning within him, causing extreme discomfort.Lannon struggled to get up and glared fiercely at Noah, who was floating in midair. He muttered, "What is the Ethereal Vitality Pill? Why did he undergo such a drastic change after consuming it? It's like he's an entirely different person from a moment ago!"At that point, Lannon was repelled, and his attack was thwarted. The ink mountains besieging Noah faded away and disappeared."T
Laney's initial appearance was that of a beautiful and graceful woman with a slim figure and radiating charm. However, her entire body now bore layers of long fur. Her once lovely face extended into a long, pointed shape, and her slender hands gradually transformed into sharp claws.In no time, Laney metamorphosed from a beauty into a giant white fox with nine tails.The white fox howled toward the sky, leaped into the air, extended its claws, and fiercely pounced on Noah.Noah's pupils contracted, his mouth twitched, and a trace of fear emerged in his heart.Noah's bones creaked, and he suddenly threw a punch. This fist grew in size as it faced the wind, instantly becoming the size of a wheel. The iron-blue fist, like a heavy hammer, struck with unstoppable force.Simultaneously, fresh blood continued to seep from Noah's body, a consequence of him urging the potent medicine of the Ethereal Vitality Pill and forcefully resisting the sealing formation."Hmph! You're seeking death!
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
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 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
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
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
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
"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
