Chapter 3279

Author: Celestial Clouds
Rean had always been wary of Adrian. Even though Adrian had explained himself, Rean refused to believe him and wanted to continue arguing with Adrian.

But at that moment, Aubrey spoke up. "Rean, don't be impulsive. The medicine Mr. Adrian gave me can indeed save my life," she said.

"Aubrey!" Rean turned around. He was about to say something more, but then he saw that her condition had indeed improved. Consequently, some of the dissatisfaction in his heart dissipated.

He asked, "Are you okay, Aubrey? Are you feeling unwell? Do you feel any discomfort?"

Aubrey shook her head. "Don’t worry, I'm fine. I feel a warm sensation spreading inside my body right now, and it’s very soothing."

As she spoke, the tense look on her face eased considerably. At this moment, even if Rean was still reluctant to believe it, the facts in front of him were undeniable.

"Mr. Adrian, I really appreciate your help. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid..." Aubrey had completely recovered by now. She looked up

    From the current situation, this seemed possible. But why would the other party do this? Everything was uncertain, and all of this was just speculation. Adrian didn't have solid evidence, so it wasn't appropriate for him to accuse the Aetherians without basis.Therefore, they were at a standstill."You didn't say anything, but it seemed like that's what you meant. How dare you slander the Aetherians. I'll kill you!" Rean glared angrily. At this moment, he was ready to continue attacking Adrian."Hold on!""Stop!"At this critical moment, two stern shouts stopped Rean.The first person to speak was Aubrey. The second person was a man, and with a burst of energy, he knocked Rean away.Rean, in the throes of anger, felt upset at this intervention. "Who are you?! How dare you meddle in my business!” he thundered."We're from the garrison!" Another stern shout rang out.Soon after, dozens of people emerged from outside. They rushed over and surrounded everyone.Seeing this, Rean r

    After hearing what Adrian said, Nathaniel harbored the same doubts, finding the situation rather peculiar. Additionally, given the current circumstances, Adrian's speculation seemed entirely plausible. But like Adrian, he too viewed all of this as mere speculation, lacking conclusive evidence.Quietly, Nathaniel approached Whitney and asked, "Ma'am, what are your thoughts on this matter?""I suspect their leader's involvement, but we mustn't reveal our suspicions prematurely. Let's get everyone out of here first and monitor the situation before taking further action," Whitney replied."I share your perspective," Nathaniel affirmed. Turning to the group, he instructed, "Everyone, please come with us.""Why?" Rean said in dissatisfaction."Aubrey." Nathaniel turned to her. “We should collaborate with the garrison to delve deeper into the dark hunters. It's essential groundwork for our aspirations to become upright monster hunters."Rean, unable to retort, sighed in resignation."M

    Despite labeling it an investigation, there wasn't much to delve into. Their understanding suggested that the dark hunters aimed to capture nearby villagers using monsters to nourish their blood, presumably to bolster their strength. With no further discoveries, the affected villagers were taken back by the Cras Island Garrison and resettled."Since there's nothing more to do, I'll take my leave."Adrian bid farewell to Nathaniel before departing. With the matter resolved, his focus shifted to preparing for the investigation of the Aetherians. Initially, he debated whether to inform Aubrey and Rean, but ultimately decided against it. While telling Aubrey seemed acceptable, he hesitated about telling Rean, sharing his deliberations only with Nathaniel. Furthermore, the preliminary investigation required his full attention, as Nathaniel and the others belonged to the garrison. Official personnel entering the Aetherians' territory would undoubtedly attract attention.Being unknown to t

    Behind Mount Aether lay a secluded valley with treacherous, steep terrain, rendering it inaccessible to ordinary folk. Only Adrian, at this moment, ventured here alone. Navigating through rugged rocky terrain, he reached the valley's deepest recesses. Darkness enveloped the surroundings, punctuated by faint phosphorescent lights rising from the depths, casting an eerie ambiance. Adrian found the scene intriguing.Suddenly, the phosphorescent lights seemed to detect his presence, converging toward him in a slow but deliberate manner as if intending to ensnare him with their mysterious power. Sensing the impending danger, Adrian observed the lights forming a vast formation, threatening to disorient him."Who dares to tread in here? Reveal yourself!" a stern voice echoed.Unfazed, Adrian unleashed a torrent of attacks, effortlessly shattering the lights. Undeterred, he hastened toward the valley's heart, determined to confront whoever dared disturb its peace.But despite Adrian's effo

    The creature’s mouth, filled with uneven yellow teeth, oozed countless strange black fluids emitting a foul, putrid odor. Another level-eight pinnacle stage monster had emerged—a Glutton.Gluttons, known for their large bellies, relied on constant feeding to maintain their strength. And their bellies secreted a corrosive slime, their most potent weapon.The simultaneous appearance of two level-eight pinnacle stage monsters added to the intrigue.Observing this, Adrian smirked. "You two want to attack me together? Two aren't enough. Bring out your stronger companions, if you have any. I'll handle them all at once."A powerful aura radiated from Adrian, slightly overpowering the surrounding dark aura."Hehehe… Since you're so eager, I'll oblige."Laughter echoed as a gray figure materialized—a female banshee draped in a gray cloak with straight black hair. Like the others, she too was a level-eight pinnacle stage creature.Adrian thought that the situation was becoming interesting

    Immediately, they realized Adrian wasn't one to trifle with. Their mocking expressions vanished one by one, replaced by cold stares, revealing sharp and fierce looks."Attack!" commanded the Glutton.All the monsters disregarded everything and charged fiercely. Instantly, throughout the valley, countless monster auras surged, exceptionally fierce, like tidal waves rushing toward Adrian.Adrian stood amidst the raging waves, seemingly unaffected, as if ignoring everything around him. As he was about to be engulfed by the enemy, he finally moved, slashing his sword across the sky. In an instant, a streak tore through the void, dazzling in the pitch-black night.The monsters charging at the forefront were not particularly formidable. At this moment, they had no ability to resist. Only cries of misery were heard as they were obliterated. After some time, the dark aura in the valley behind Mount Aether was fully eliminated.After ensuring there was no danger, Adrian left the valley and

    Adrian moved closer and managed to catch wind of their conversation."Why is the leader looking for Aubrey in the middle of the night?""Beats me, and it’s none of our concern. We just need to take Aubrey to him.""Alright."They talked as they walked, and soon they arrived at a secluded courtyard with a small, quiet room. The two of them knocked on the door, and the sound echoed through the empty courtyard.After a while, a voice from inside asked, "Who is it?"Hiding in the dark, Adrian recognized Aubrey's voice.One of the young priests answered, "It's us, Aubrey. The leader wants to see you.""Oh, I see." Aubrey poked her head out of the room.In the dim lighting, Adrian noticed Aubrey looked haggard. He hadn't seen her in days, and it was unclear what had happened to her since then. Adrian stayed hidden, quietly observing.After tidying herself up, Aubrey followed the two priests out of the courtyard. Adrian followed them from a distance. In the center of Aether Sanctum

    A figure walked out from inside the building. Adrian didn't dare to breathe as he quietly observed, watching the figure intently. He noticed that the person was a man in his seventies, dressed like an ordinary old priest. There was nothing remarkable about his appearance. However, Adrian's Divine Clear Sight allowed him to see through the outward facade, revealing a sinister aura emanating from the man.The dark aura pervading the place originated from this man. ‘This old guy must be the mastermind,’ Adrian thought. He decided not to act recklessly and instead waited to see what the old man was up to."Aubrey, you're here," the old man said with a smile as he stepped out."Yes," Aubrey replied softly, nodding. She didn't look particularly happy; she seemed preoccupied. "Why did you summon me, sir?" she asked."As one of the most outstanding disciples of the Aetherians, shouldn't you also contribute to the faction?" the old priest asked instead of answering Aubrey's question.A str

    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?

    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.

    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.
