Chapter 3820

Author: Celestial Clouds
Having just undergone atavism, Jac had already exhausted the blood in his veins. The side effects of a second atavism were severe. He was on the verge of dehydration, with about half of his bone marrow depleted. If he did not replenish soon, his wolf bloodline would be ruined.

Although Jac was reckless, his thinking was quite unique and far superior to that of the dead dark immortal. He knew that if he fell into Adrian's hands, escaping death would be impossible. Despite this, his discomfort persisted even after the transformation. Struggling against nausea, he lunged at Adrian, hoping to sever his opponent's carotid artery with his gaping maw.

However, Adrian was not going to let him succeed. He recognized that Jac was already at the end of his strength. To buy time, Adrian performed a nimble dodge, causing Jac to miss his attack.

Adrian said, "Hold on, sir. I was sent by the lord to rescue you."

Jac retorted, "How dare you lie to me! Who are you? How could anyone know about this

    Adrian mocked, “Can’t you figure it out? Who were you planning to inform? Hahaha!”“Who?” Jac wondered, trying to recall.Given the cave’s extreme secrecy, it was almost impossible for anyone to find this remote island. Adrian’s familiarity only deepened Jac’s suspicion that his family might be involved.Jac didn’t recall that Adrian was one of the people he had chased just days earlier. Instead, he thought Adrian might be connected to his family and an assassination plot. However, Jac was unsure who would do such a thing since he had always been humble and had no known issues with any of his family members.“Hmph, it doesn’t matter if the eldest son is dead,” Adrian continued deceitfully. “He can’t inherit the family anymore.”“You’re talking nonsense. My brother would never betray me or harm me,” Jac responded. He now accepted that someone had sent Adrian to kill him and that there was an attempt to usurp his position.“Hmph, seems like you’ve figured it out,” Adrian said. But

    Additionally, Adrian had already collected the seeds and roots beforehand. Although these celestial herbs were valuable, they were not irreplaceable; they could be obtained again, though it would take some time.Suddenly, Adrian had a brilliant idea for achieving victory. He stopped hesitating and disengaged from combat with Jac. He began to focus solely on gathering the celestial herbs and plants, treating Jac as if he were invisible or irrelevant.Jac was enraged by this.“What’s the meaning of this?1 We’re still fighting!” Jac shouted, furious at Adrian’s dismissive behavior. However, he had no choice but to continue attacking as he had no other means to deal with Adrian.Adrian used a strategy of advancing when Jac retreated and striking when Jac was exhausted. Jac felt a deep sense of helplessness and had to admit that he no longer had the strength to defeat Adrian.“Let’s talk,” Jac said suddenly, his tone now subdued rather than defiant.Adrian was pleased to gain more tim

    “No,” Adrian said, “You and I are merely passing acquaintances. I’m using my own lifespan to help you with your fortune. Today, I have a feeling I should give you a reading.”“Then I’m all ears,” Jac replied mockingly, assuming this to be one of Adrian’s theatrics. He didn’t believe in such mystical nonsense.Adrian continued, “You’ve been intelligent since childhood and were greatly favored by your father. Unfortunately, you didn’t know much about your mother’s background until you learned about the status of the women on the island. Acutely feeling your lack of maternal love, this was when you first came to resent your father. You believed your mother was executed because of her status, but you dared not speak of it or ask.“Your only choice was to practice diligently, fighting beasts with a courage that defied death. While other children of your family were fearful, you attached beast limbs to yourself and risked death to transplant beast marrow, succeeding in making yourself the

    Adrian followed a tributary upstream, intrigued by its course. Even he was affected by this tributary. At its end stood a man, who seemed to be at the very edge of this world’s existence. When Adrian saw the man, the entire line of fate seemed to be disrupted. The man sensed something was amiss, and with a brief exclamation, he vanished from sight.Adrian was deeply perplexed. Could this man be the world master? Why did he differ from the descriptions given by Eloise and the immortal world? As someone at the pinnacle of existence, there was no reason for him to conceal himself.‘Could there be multiple world masters?’ Adrian questioned silently, convinced of what he had seen. It was inconceivable that he could have fabricated it. The problem was the discrepancy between his observations and the descriptions in the immortal world. The only explanation was that there might be multiple world masters, or perhaps there was no world master at all.Adrian felt that the once-clear image befo

    “But you, my friend, are an independent immortal. I could tell that you were extraordinary. After thinking for a while, I realized that you probably aren’t from another island and that there’s no family dispute between us. You won’t gain anything by killing me, and to be blunt, we dark immortals are low-quality immortals. We rarely gather spiritual energy or use spiritual artifacts, so we won’t bring you any wealth.“On the contrary, my survival could bring you the greatest benefit. In the maritime immortal region, you can’t escape the beasts. Beasts are fundamental to training, so I can offer you significant advantages.“Firstly, sea charts. The sea charts of the open sea have always been available, but who knows the South Sea like our family and us dark immortals? We live here, which gives us our advantages,” Jac concluded.Adrian nodded in agreement and gestured for him to continue.Jac smacked his lips, showing signs of severe thirst with his cracked lips. But Adrian pretended

    The nine Human Domains depended on the Spirit Domain for their existence.Adrian realized his mistake and felt a bit embarrassed. As Jac slowly explained, Adrian began to fully understand the cause and effect in this world, as well as the chaos caused by several level-nine immortals under the Dark Sage.The structure of this world was actually very simple: nine Human Domains corresponded to one Spirit Domain. Theoretically, nine Spirit Domains would correspond to one Immortal Domain. When an immortal reached a certain level, they would ascend. However, there was currently no mention of other Spirit Domains.Daemonia, on the other hand, corresponded to the Spirit Domain but was much stronger because it theoretically corresponded to the Immortal Domain. It contained dark immortals whose power far surpassed that of the Spirit Domain. However, Daemonia was not as powerful as the Immortal Domain. Upon becoming a dark immortal, although they could stay in this realm, they ultimately had t

    There were many issues in this world that couldn't be easily explained using Jac's views. Despite Adrian's jokes, he had a deep understanding of the relationship between aura essence, laws, and the power of faith. Many level-eight and level-nine immortals had not grasped these concepts, but Adrian found answers through the Exile Realm.If the Draco Veinergy was the greatest gift from the heavens, then the Exile Realm was the second best. Through the evolution of the Exile Realm, Adrian came to understand the world from the initial laws, thereby achieving supremacy. This was his confidence and unique advantage.Adrian also asked Jac about specific issues related to Daemonia and found out these dark immortals did not belong to Daemonia. In fact, dark immortals were divided into two types: beast immortals like them and daemon immortals. Since there was no Beast Domain, they would ascend to the Spirit Domain at the end of their training. Anyone in Daemonia could ascend as long as they co

    While Adrian was pondering, he looked toward Jac and said, "It’s not impossible to just keep you here, but would you be willing to accept a slave mark?"Jac felt a bit despondent. For a dignified young master to be branded with a slave mark was a tremendous humiliation. It would give Adrian leverage over him.With the slave mark, Jac could return and ask his family's elders to kill Adrian. However, once his stubborn family members discovered he had been branded, it would spell the end of his career as an heir.In their family, there were nine heirs, and ultimately, one would be chosen as the family leader’s successor. None of them would willingly give up their position. If Jac did, many others would eagerly vie for his place—something Jac understood far better than Adrian.Adrian, looking at Jac earnestly, said, "Don’t be nervous. I won’t do anything to you. I might need your help in the future. Branding you with the slave mark doesn’t mean I’ll treat you like one."Jac's frown ea

    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.
