Chapter 3254

Author: Celestial Clouds
Nathaniel did not fully trust Adrian, but there was nothing Adrian could do about it. It was not that he did not want to speak, but rather he did not know how to explain it to Nathaniel. Although he had obtained valuable information from the armored undead general, he could not directly present it as useful evidence.

Adrian's mind raced, and soon, he thought of something. "Ah, I've got it! If you don't believe me, you can investigate Nameless Valley,” he said.

"Nameless Valley?" Nathaniel was stunned.

That was the most remote place in all of Mapleston. Once a battlefield, the area later transformed into a mass grave where villagers laid to rest ownerless corpses. Consequently, nobody dared to approach the valley.

"Yes, Nameless Valley. As far as I know, that valley is the headquarters of the Netherites in Mapleston. So, I'm sure we'll find something if we go there," Adrian said.

"Fine, I'll trust you this time." Nathaniel decided after some thought.

Woo— Woo—

    However, this situation did not last long. Official personnel soon began to restore order and provided the garrison team with a dedicated passage through the city."I didn't expect Mapleston to issue the most severe evacuation warning so soon." Nathaniel sighed."Will there be another level nine monster this time?" one of his men exclaimed in shock."It's unlikely," Nathaniel said, "But the level of disaster is not purely measured by the grade of the fiend slaves that appear. There are over a thousand fiend slaves this time, so we mustn't underestimate their destructive power." Everyone nodded and continued to march forward with newfound dedication. After some time, the group exited the urban area. Due to the prompt evacuation, the suburban area was now empty, but the swirl of dark energy in the air was enough to send shivers down everyone's spine. This was even more intense than the incident at Nubis Hills, which had a limited impact due to its remote location with only one nearb

    To avoid attracting attention, Adrian sped up deliberately. Soon, he ran far away. Although there were many monsters, they were no match for Adrian. They were just eighth-level monsters, and he could easily annihilate them as if harvesting vegetables."Charge!" General Hydro and General Pyro rode ahead on their horses.Wherever they went, they attacked relentlessly with their water and fire powers. The fiend slaves were completely unable to withstand their assaults. Adrian didn't even need to intervene. Effortlessly, he wiped out large groups of fiend slaves.The garrison group was dumbfounded. After a while, someone finally asked, "Sir Nathaniel, what should we do next?""His strength is indeed remarkable. Since that's the case, let's leave it to him. We have many people, so we'll continue to evacuate the civilians," Nathaniel said.Nathaniel estimated that as the dark aura spread, more areas would be affected. This would undoubtedly increase the number of people needing evacuati

    If it weren't for the strong dark aura surrounding him, this guy would just be an inconspicuous old man."What are you laughing at?" Adrian scowled.The old man replied coldly, "You've ruined my plans, so I’m here to seek revenge." The black aura around him grew even stronger."Hmph. You've done wrong. Do you think I'll let you continue your evil deeds? Dream on." Adrian stood his ground.Adrian roared, and everyone prepared to attack.The old man smiled sinisterly. "Since you've come to find trouble with me, let's cut the nonsense and fight."Countless black auras swept over the old man’s body. He was only at the ninth level, but the dense black aura around him greatly enhanced his power. Although he was a ninth-level, he was more powerful than a ninth-level. He turned countless black auras into surging waves, which surged toward Adrian. This made the battle even more difficult for Adrian and the others, but they had no intention of retreating. Moreover, with their larger number

    One by one, the monstrous faces bared their fangs and claws, swiftly pouncing toward Adrian and the others.Slash!Ash stepped forward, unsheathing his Doomcleaver with a clang. Instantly, many monsters and fiend slaves were killed on the spot. But the old man didn't care about his fiend slaves. His figure flickered, and strange black auras kept appearing. With each eruption, more fiend slaves materialized.The Netherites beside the old man used similar methods. Under their attacks, the entire valley seemed to transform into a paradise for monsters. Fortunately, these were just monsters, and the strong ones among them could handle it. But Adrian knew that if this continued, it would result in a stalemate, which was bad news. He needed a new strategy.Adrian quickly devised a plan. "You guys hold off these monsters. I'll deal with the old man's main body." He leaped forward, soaring into the air and charging toward the old man."Hmm?" The old man noticed and immediately made a move

    Clink!Each chain carried an exceptionally sharp edge, piercing through the old man's body on the spot. He let out a miserable scream, struggling to break free but failed. Soon, his consciousness gradually faded.Adrian burst into laughter. "Kill you? It's as easy as pie."An incredibly shocking attack swept out.The old man felt the overwhelming assault from Adrian, crushing him instantly.*Nathaniel and the others were exceptionally busy. The spread of the dark aura exceeded their expectations. They frantically evacuated civilians but were overwhelmed by the rapidly spreading dark aura.Suddenly, Nathaniel felt a slight chill. He looked up and saw the strong dark aura had diminished slightly."What the…” Nathaniel was shocked.A figure approached him and greeted, "Captain."Looking closely, Nathaniel found it was Adrian. His tense heart finally relaxed. "It's you. How did things go?"Adrian smiled and replied, "What do you think? Of course, everything went smoothly."Nat

    "Looking at its small size, I never expected this place to have such a strong dark aura," Stygian commented."There must be a huge monster here." Adrian snorted, then took the lead and entered Nameless Valley.Inside were trees everywhere, but the lush greenery had been overtaken by the dark aura, turning it into a ruin. The dead trees painted a picture of desolation, resembling a hell on earth. As they progressed, Adrian noticed the area ahead clearing up."I didn't expect this place to be a hidden paradise." He sighed.Man-made traces began to appear before them—stone steps, erected stone pillars—but they looked abandoned. Vines covered these structures like they had been untouched for some time. Despite the signs of habitation, the place seemed abandoned and barren. Adrian couldn't shake off the feeling that something was amiss."It's strange. Why is the dark aura so heavy here, yet there isn't a single person? Could it be that this place was entirely abandoned by the old man a

    "Humph, you're crafty despite lacking strength. It seems killing one of our elders wasn't just a coincidence," a sinister voice emerged from within the dense black gas."If you're important, then reveal yourself. Only a coward hides," Adrian taunted."Don't worry, I’m right here.”A figure slowly emerged from the gas and stood before Adrian and the others. Similar to the old man from before, this person wore a black robe as well but appeared younger. He had a devilish smile which it fixed on Adrian and the others as if trying to see through them."I never expected the useless garrison soldiers could find such help.” The man sighed. "I'll give you a chance. Join the Netherites for greater opportunities.""Dream on. I won’t join you scum," Adrian retorted."Don't rush to reject me. You probably don't know what the Netherites are.” The man smiled, seeming eager to recruit Adrian."I don't care. You're all heading for a dead end."Fine.” The man laughed angrily, his smile deepening

    Ash had circled behind and stabbed the man. He said, "How annoying. It’s so much easier to end it with one slash."Adrian sneered. "Did you really think that after the previous battle, I would give you a chance to retaliate? Dream on. Take him away."Adrian then continued walking deeper into the valley with Ash and the others. He noticed something. Despite capturing all these people, the surrounding monster aura showed no signs of weakening. He felt there might still be some issues with them. As they proceeded, they quickly arrived at the innermost part of the Netherites' base."What…"Despite being prepared for many things, Adrian was still shocked. Before him stood a huge cave in a mountain. Outside, there were many defensive measures, now rendered useless because of the operators’ capture. The cave appeared dilapidated.But the main point wasn't these defenses. It was the huge blood pool at the center of the cave. About ten square meters in size, it boiled with blood, emitting

    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
