Chapter 2655

Author: Celestial Clouds
Augustus continued to lead Adrain forward as if nothing happened. After going some ways, Adrian finally could not hold back.

"Where are you taking me, Mr. Augustus? Even if we're taking a smaller path, we should at least be heading in the direction of the sacred mountain. We're going in the opposite direction. What's going on?" he asked.

Augustus was stunned. He froze in place and stared blankly as if turned to stone. Adrian remained silent as he observed Augustus' reaction. They locked eyes for a moment, and silence seemed to fill the air. Adrian's intuition was telling him that this seemingly serene path was not as peaceful as it appeared.

Rrrraaaggggh!

Suddenly, a roar shattered the silence. Debris and dust filled the air, accompanied by a massive shadow.

Adrian lightly stomped the ground and floated into the air. "You've finally shown your true colors." He scoffed.

Augustus smirked wickedly as a colossal shadow coiled around him. Adrian saw that it was an enormous snake. The

    Attacks were launched one after another. The giant snake couldn’t cope with such relentless attacks. Before long, it let out a piercing and miserable scream and turned into ashes.To unleash such a powerful force showed how terrifying Adrian was. After the giant snake completely turned to ashes, only its beast core slowly floated in mid-air."Even mosquitoes have flesh. That snake’s strength wasn’t too shabby." Adrian saw the core, and without any hesitation, devoured it.After all, the giant snake was an extremely rare Variant with quite formidable strength. Devouring its core would still be quite helpful for Adrian. However, Adrian did not absorb it right now. Compared to trivial matters, he had more important things to do.He descended to the ground, then with a cold smile, he said to the surroundings, "Mr. Augustus, why did you lure me here? It's time to give me an answer!” His voice was cold as if it came from the depths of Hell.Carrying an unparalleled sense of dominance, A

    But despite his shock, Adrian coldly countered, "So what? I was already strong to begin with. It's you who relies on such despicable means to become stronger. Do you really think you're amazing? Even if twice as many people came, you still wouldn't be able to do anything to me."These words struck at the depths of Augustus' heart, and he became instantly embarrassed. It was evident that he disliked what Adrian had said.Augustus glared fiercely at Adrian and gritted his teeth, saying, "You all looked down on me. From now on, I will make you see. I will make all of you submit to me!"He was furious, and his eyes showed an unusually fierce look. After a pause, he continued, "And I'll start with you. You’re strong. If I can absorb your power and use it to deal with the king and his men, all of Silver Peak Island will be under my control."Hearing this, Adrian finally understood why this man was so angry. Augustus was not highly looked upon in the past because he was weak. Even in the

    “Adrian! If you’re that strong, come out and face me!" Augustus shouted as he looked around. But he couldn’t find any trace of Adrian, and unfortunately, Adrian didn't respond. Augustus felt like he was talking to himself and got even angrier. "Since you won't come out, then I'll have them kill you!"With that, he commanded his group to launch attacks wildly in all directions. However, their attacks were all in vain. No matter how hard they tried, they couldn't touch Adrian. It was as if he had truly disappeared.After attacking wildly for a while, they still gained nothing. It seemed like Adrian had left."Damn it..." Augustus cursed as he noted the forest ravaged by their attacks.However, at this moment, a voice came from the sky."Haha! I used this method to deal with others before. Using it on you guys seems quite appropriate!"It was Adrian's voice, and it instantly attracted the group’s attention. The angry Augustus wanted to attack Adrian, but no matter how hard he trie

    The thunderous pressure surged toward Augustus. He was greatly shocked, and he quickly waved. Countless black auras rolled in from all directions and formed a huge barrier before him. It helped him block this wave of impact.Boom!The powerful attack was like a landslide. Augustus had mobilized all his strength, but even so, he felt an extremely terrifying pressure. It was like a mountain was pressing down on him, making it hard for him to breathe."Damn it..." Augustus couldn't believe it. He had clearly gained immense power, so why was he still not a match for Adrian?This couldn't be. He didn't want to believe it. But the ironclad facts before him told him that all his fantasies were illusions. He was simply no match for Adrian."Die!"The next moment, the black aura was completely dispersed. A more powerful attack followed, carrying a blood-like aura. Augustus had exerted all his strength to resist the Divine Frost Slayer Blade’s strike, which was already quite difficult for

    To his surprise, Adrian found that the source of the disturbance was a group of people dressed in black. These people emitted strong impurities. They had clearly been infected by the impurities.What surprised Adrian was that the infected individuals he had encountered before were all crazed lunatics devoid of reason. However, this group of people seemed to retain their consciousness. Were there people stronger than ordinary people?Regardless, discovering these people was equivalent to finding a clue. Without hesitation, Adrian followed these people deeper into the area. As they progressed deeper, the impurities in the air became even denser. At the same time, the paths became more winding and confusing, making it difficult to discern the direction. If it weren't for these people leading the way, Adrian would have found it difficult to find his way around.Adrian then noticed that the road ahead gradually became clearer. Moreover, more figures were moving in the distance. It seemed

    "Turn back?" The king felt like he had heard the most ridiculous joke. "There was no turning back the moment I ascended the throne. But for me, whether to turn back or not doesn't matter. I don’t mind becoming a bloodthirsty demon as long as I can achieve my goal.” He clenched his fists, causing the veins on his arms to bulge.The king had completely changed. Uriel, the prime minister, looked at him as if he were looking at a stranger. In his memory, the king used to be a gentle person, but he had now become so bloodthirsty and cruel. The Malevolent Soul Cloak was powerful, but it devoured one's heart.Uriel sighed, but he couldn’t change what was happening. Whether it was himself or the people around him, they were all on the brink of a dead end. They had no chance of survival anymore; the only way out was death...He closed his eyes as tears streamed down his cheeks. "I know you won't listen to anything I say now. I’ve devoted my whole life to this country—to serve until my death.

    The king narrowed his eyes. "I thought that the one who repeatedly broke through several of Silver Peak Island’s cities would be a cunning and experienced person. I wasn’t expecting you to be so young." As he spoke, he applauded.The consecutive defeats made the king want to eliminate this peerless powerhouse. Unfortunately, they had little information about this person. They thought they would have to attack Silverboa to meet this person, not expecting him to come to their doorstep of his own accord.Adrian coldly smiled. "There are many things that will surprise you. Like today, I'm going to eradicate this devil's lair."Since he had already reached the enemy's lair, Adrian didn't intend to waste time talking to them. With a flash of killing intent in his eyes, he unsheathed his sword, pointing it threateningly at the king."Hmm?"As the killing intent approached him, the king furrowed his brows. He simply waved, causing a powerful black aura to emerge from the depths of the pit

    Preparing another lethal attack, the king’s expression turned stern once again. Then, he struck out. Countless streams of aura condensed into blade-like essences, covering the sky and attacking Adrian.Adrian didn't dare to be negligent. He was quick-witted, and he quickly shuttled through the countless attacks. Although the king was powerful, he was unable to harm Adrian.However, the king was not in a hurry. Because his attacks were continuous and unending, he could keep himself in an invincible position as long as he maintained this state. As for whether he could defeat Adrian, that was not something within his consideration at the moment.Although Adrian could also maintain a continuous barrage of attacks, he was in a disadvantageous position. His attacks seemed powerful, but his opponent's defense was impeccable. Therefore, he was unable to touch the king.Faced with such a situation, Adrian couldn't afford to be the slightest bit negligent. He relied on his advantages to stud

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?

    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

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.

    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.

    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.

    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
