Chapter 3999

Penulis: Celestial Clouds
Tyron smiled and replied, "It seems I was being overly anxious."

Darcie also smiled and said, "Not at all. It’s really not a big deal. You were just overthinking. Besides, we have other daemons among us."

"What?" Everyone was stunned. Despite having been in Purecastle for so long, they had never heard of daemons within it.

At that moment, Edwin revealed his true nature. "Hahaha, you didn't see this coming, did you? I'm actually a half-daemon!"

The crowd was astonished, staring at him in shock. Even Irene, Edwin's apprentice, had never imagined her master had such a background.

Edwin continued, "Being born a half-daemon, my training speed is much faster than ordinary people's. That’s how I secured the position of the first elder of Purecastle."

While everyone expressed their admiration, Darcie laughed and said, "Purecastle is a big faction. We don’t hold such prejudices."

"Prejudice is the worst. It’s most troublesome when people cling to their background and make a fuss about it

  • The Return of the War Legate   Chapter 4000

    When Adrian’s group finally arrived at Purecastle, they were struck by the sight before them. The once grand castle had transformed beyond recognition. Countless dark energies enveloped the ruins and eerie tentacle-like vines had begun to grow in the deep cracks. These vines seemed to breathe, expanding and contracting in a chilling manner."What in the world are these things?" Orson exclaimed.Tyron sighed and explained, "These are daemonic vines created by the daemon lord to pollute the maritime immortal region. If left unchecked, they will eventually spread throughout the entire underground of the maritime immortal region, filling it with daemonic energy. That would spell the end for the maritime immortal region.""Then why are we waiting? We need to destroy them immediately!" Simeon said in alarm.Just as he was about to act, Tyron stopped him. "Hold on. The daemonic vines can't be destroyed just like that. If we remove them without completely eliminating the daemon lord, the d

    The elders had provided Irene with the method for entering the skill depository. As she was about to open it, Adrian stopped her. "Wait a moment."Irene looked at Adrian in confusion. Adrian smiled faintly and said, "Earlier, we were wondering where the daemons had gone. Now, I know exactly where they are."As he spoke, Adrian summoned a sword energy that surged around them, slicing through the space. The air was sliced with a sharp sound, and the surroundings were illuminated with twisting light. Soon, numerous daemonic beasts appeared around them. The group was astonished and struggled to believe their eyes.Adrian grinned fiercely. "Hmph, did you all see that?""Wow, we’re actually...surrounded by a horde of daemonic beasts?!" Simeon exclaimed in disbelief.Over a hundred daemonic beasts now encircled Adrian and his group, their claws and fangs bared menacingly. Once ordinary spirits and exotic beasts, they had become terrifying daemons due to the corruption of daemonic energy.

    As they spoke, the others joined the fray. With so many daemonic beasts, they had to fight with all their might. Despite the challenge, they managed to handle the situation with relative ease. Before long, Adrian and his group had eliminated most of the beasts.The remaining daemonic beasts, seeing their numbers dwindling, grew unsettled. Recognizing that their defeat was imminent, they stopped their reckless assault and retreated from Adrian and his team.Adrian sneered coldly. "It seems they can think after all, not just act like mindless beasts. Since that’s the case, I'll show you what true power really is!"With that, he gathered a massive amount of sword energy into a dense, impenetrable net and launched it toward the swarm of daemons. Having learned their tactics from the previous battle, he aimed at their vital points.Just as Adrian's attack was about to strike, a barrier appeared out of nowhere, blocking the strike. A voice emerged from behind it, "You arrogant little bra

    The immortal was instantly vaporized by Adrian’s attack. With its death, the surrounding daemonic beasts began to fall rapidly, almost as if they were being defeated without any further effort.Orson and the others were puzzled. “What’s happening? Why are these daemonic beasts being defeated so easily?”“This is actually good news. It saves us the effort,” Simeon said.Still, Adrian had a nagging feeling that something was off. The sudden and unexplained downfall of the daemonic beasts didn’t sit right with him. He shared his concerns, and the others also felt something was amiss. However, with no clear clues, they had to set their doubts aside.“Anyway, the daemonic beasts are dealt with. Let’s hurry and enter the skill depository,” Adrian urged.“Right, there’s no time to lose,” Irene agreed.She held out a stone that began to glow with a series of ancient runes as she channeled her energy into it. The runes emitted a strange light that enveloped the area, gradually revealing a

    A voice suddenly echoed through the air, and the group turned to see a figure materializing before Adrian, exuding a terrifying aura like a daemon. Irene, Orson, Simeon, and the others quickly readied their weapons and braced for battle.Meanwhile, Adrian remained calm and collected. With a smile, he said, “I expected you’d have a backup plan. Did you really think a worthless pawn would fool me? How naive.”Since their arrival, Adrian had sensed a strong presence of daemonic energy in the area. The enemies they had faced so far were too weak to account for such intense energy, making Adrian suspect a more powerful threat was waiting in the shadows. He didn’t know when the real danger would appear, so he stayed alert. Now, the true threat had finally shown itself.The man began clapping mockingly after hearing Adrian’s words. “You’re sharp, kid. But even so, you’re still doomed.”“Oh, really?” Adrian raised an eyebrow. “If I’ve already figured out your plan, do you really think I’m

    As Adrian spoke, he stood face-to-face with the man. With a wave of his hand, a powerful aura shot from his palm and enveloped the man completely. The light intensified, gradually dissipating the aura around the man.From the moment the man appeared to his death, he never truly threatened Adrian. Only someone like Adrian would dare use such methods against an opponent like him. Others might have been overwhelmed and killed by the daemonic energy, which significantly boosts power and becomes more dangerous over time.Adrian and his group had prepared in advance, making the situation more manageable. Instead of killing the daemon outright, Adrian preserved a trace of its consciousness and began extracting its memories.'This one was stronger than the last. I might learn more about the daemon lord from his memories,' Adrian thought as the daemon’s memories flooded his mind. He carefully analyzed the vast information.Seeing what Adrian was doing, the others stepped forward and asked,

    In addition to his current plans, the daemon lord had two other objectives: to continue pursuing Purecastlers and to attack the Universe Alliance, the most powerful immortal coalition in the maritime immortal region. It seemed to be the daemon lord's target for total destruction.“I wonder if the Universe Alliance has heard this news.” Irene sighed.“They definitely know,” Adrian replied. “But uniting everyone in the Universe Alliance might be difficult, especially given the internal conflicts among their elders. They likely still have internal issues to resolve.”Everyone agreed, but this was a concern for later.Despite the daemon lord’s rapid expansion, various immortals and powerful factions were resisting. Although this resistance wasn’t yet a complete system, it was enough to slow the daemon lord’s progress. Adrian and his group still had time. Once the immediate threat from the daemons was addressed, they would focus on the skill depository.Interrupted earlier, Irene resum

    Everyone was slightly taken aback. “Something strange?”Adrian nodded. “Yes. There’s a strange presence in the air, though I can’t specify what it is. It seems to be some sort of spiritual entity.”Everyone became more alert after hearing Adrian’s words, and they could faintly sense a mysterious presence in the air.After a while, Orson spoke up, “In that case, let’s follow Mr. Adrian’s advice.”“Alright, better safe than sorry.”The group formed a formation and continued toward the top. Everything seemed calm with no obvious abnormalities. The lower levels of the skill depository were filled with strength methods, alchemy manuals, and similar texts. As they ascended, the number of bookshelves around them decreased.At the same time, Adrian felt their progress becoming increasingly difficult, as if a mysterious force was impeding their advancement. Sensing this, he smiled slightly and said, “It seems someone doesn’t want us to move forward.”He waved his hand, and a powerful for

    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.
