Adrian could feel that Cherise was still on her guard when she was talking to him. It seemed that apprentices of these major factions were uniformly cautious when encountering unknown individuals.That being said, he felt relieved upon confirming that she was from Mystic Elixir. At least she was not an enemy."Just calling me Adrian will do. After all, I'm younger than you. I've come here today to report an important matter to Lady Atlas Xanthos. Cherise was taken aback. "What significant matter would prompt you to directly report to Supreme Master Atlas? She's usually in seclusion and rarely meets guests."Adrian replied, "I'm aware of that, so I would like to inquire about the current person in charge of the faction's affairs.""Currently, the person overseeing our faction's affairs is Mistress Callista Halmi. As long as it doesn't concern the secrets of our faction, you can report anything to her."Adrian was overjoyed and said, "In that case, please introduce me to her."Ch

"Under normal circumstances, it's used to protect the sanctuary from being invaded by outsiders. At the same time, it serves as the pathway for outsiders to enter the sanctuary."At my level, I can only control one of the pathways with the artifact manipulation spell. Even the elders can only control two or three of them at most."But it's said that Supreme Master Atlas can turn the neon aurorae into a path with a snap of the fingers. The scene of such power is just beyond my imagination!"As it turned out, the Mystic Elixir apprentices must have mastered the artifact manipulation spell to leave the faction. This was actually the measure taken by the faction to protect its apprentices.Without a certain level of attainment, leaving the faction would be tantamount to courting death. After all, the world was a dangerous place, and one would not be able to survive without the ability to defend oneself.Those who had mastered the artifact manipulation spell could use it to manipulate

After a moment, the two arrived at a mountain peak. The summit of this mountain had a flat platform as if its peak had been deliberately leveled.On top of the mountain stood an ancient and elegant pavilion, and the plaque of the pavilion bore two large words: Hawk Pavilion.Cherise led Adrian into the pavilion and said to him, "Mr. Adrian, there are rules within Mystic Elixir. Those who haven't been invited here by an elder aren't allowed to step inside. Please rest for a while here in this pavilion, where all guests are welcome. I'll go find Mistress Callista."After saying that, Cherise beckoned, and an apprentice promptly came over with water and other beverages.Adrian smiled and replied, "No problem at all. I'll wait right here."After that, he picked up a cup of tea from the tray, thanked the apprentice, and began to savor it. This tea was a vibrant green, and even though its leaves were immersed in water, they still seemed as fresh as if they had just been plucked from a

Callista persuaded Cherise to leave her and Adrian alone and then said, "I've heard Cherise's account of the situation. We're not concerned about the war between the Altalune Kingdom and the Dragon Dynasty. The Altalune Kingdom is so tiny that they're no match for the Dragon Dynasty. What we need to be wary of is the Church of Netherphos."Adrian was somewhat surprised. Being a seasoned immortal, Callista saw through the intricacies and stakes involved with just a few words."Is the mysterious cult called the Church of Netherphos? May I know more about its origin and why it should be so guarded against?" he asked.Callista nodded. "Yes, in fact, I haven't personally encountered this cult, but I've come across records about it in the library of the faction that documents various strange occurrences in the world. From your description, it is undoubtedly the Church of Netherphos..."The Church of Netherphos was a peculiar organization that had become popular in the western continents.

Callista looked at Adrian and felt that this young man was indeed extraordinary. She had once asked Val about the kind of person Adrian was.However, Val's response had not helped much as she could not say for sure either.In the eyes of Callista, this young man had an excellent temperament, neither arrogant nor self-deprecating, and possessed a personality suitable for practicing immortality. Moreover, deep within him, there was a wild and untamed nature. He would not accept defeat, let alone be discouraged easily.When facing certain situations, he would rather choose slaughtering to resolve them. When dealing with people like the Church of Netherphos, if one were to constantly shy away from the issue, it would not lead to compromise but destruction instead.When facing such individuals, the only option was to use a more resolute approach to subdue them in one fell swoop!This was something Adrian realized early on. Some people must be thoroughly intimidated to prevent trouble.

"Mistress Callista, please don't address me as Mr. Adrian. It sounds awkward. Just call me by my name," Adrian casually insisted and continued. "After hearing what you said, I was actually thinking of exploring around. Taking a look at what insights I can gain from the Selemene Valley. If I ever plan to build a sanctuary for myself in the future, it could serve as a reference."*"Mr. Quintin, this is Ms. Val Leeve, a fellow immortal from Mystic Elixir... Oh yeah, I forgot that you've met before this."This took place in the Guthries mansion. Adrian had brought Val back and introduced her to Quintin.It had been three days since Adrian left for Mystic Elixir. After secluding herself for training, Val reached the second level of Mystic Elixir's secret art today.Having rapidly advanced in her immortality level, Val had become an esteemed intermediate apprentice, garnering attention from the faction.Upon Adrian's arrival with Val, Quintin hurriedly approached and greeted, "Welcome

Many dynasties and countries followed the common practice of working during the day and resting at night due to their technological limitations. However, the Dragon Dynasty was different. It was one of the few nations that had the capability to keep its cities illuminated throughout the night, making it the most powerful country in this aspect.The entire Dragon City remained brilliantly illuminated as night fell, resembling daylight. Everywhere, the sounds of musical instruments, including violins, flutes, and harps, as well as the clamor of drums, filled the air.Those who had been busy throughout the day, whether finding pleasure in pubs, fairs, or even brothels, liked to relax at night.The streets and alleys were still bustling with people, and the entire city seemed to still be alive with activities. In summary, throughout the city, there was no place without people.However, despite the crowds, everything was orderly, thanks to the nation's well-established management system

The group of immortals flew to the city's outskirts but showed no intention of stopping. Instead, they flew straight to the city's center and landed directly on top of a palace. They then transformed into a radiant light and descended straight down.At this moment, an elderly man stood with his hands behind his back on the steps in front of the palace's main hall. He had a white beard and hair, and although his expression appeared weary, his demeanor had a hidden determination.He was dressed in a black robe decorated with an embroidered pattern of a soaring dragon, giving him a splendid and extraordinary appearance. A faint sense of nobility circulated around him.It was a genuine aura of nobility, the kind of presence that seemed to reign over the world. If an ordinary person were to stand before him, they might not even dare to lift their gazes.The man was indeed the current emperor of the Dragon Dynasty—Emperor Fraener Drayke.Standing beside him was an old eunuch, and he loo

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 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

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

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
