Chapter 4016

Author: Celestial Clouds
Edwin smiled mysteriously as if holding a significant secret. After a moment, he waved again, and the guardian spirit transformed into a ball of light that landed in his hand.

When Adrian used his divine consciousness to probe the light ball, he immediately sensed the immense power contained within it. Realizing something, he began to speak, "Sir, this..."

Seeing that Adrian had guessed the truth, Edwin smiled and confirmed, "Indeed, this is Purecastle's most revered codex—the Sacred Spirit Codex, which contains the records of the Primordial Core."

Everyone was stunned by this revelation. Adrian and the others had never imagined that the spiritual entity that had been blocking their way was hiding such a profound secret.

Irene asked, "What exactly is the Primordial Core, sir? Can we finally uncover its mysteries?"

Edwin responded, "This isn't the place to discuss this. Let's return to Gull Isle first."

The group agreed, concerned about avoiding further daemon attacks.

    Adrian nodded. "Why wouldn’t I be willing? I’m actually curious to see what the Universe Alliance is really about."The two quickly reached an agreement. As they talked, the group returned to Gull Isle. Upon their arrival, the other elders immediately approached, expressing their concern."How did things go? Is everything alright?""Everything went well. We managed to retrieve the item successfully. Now, I need to go into seclusion with the other elders to decipher the Sacred Spirit Codex. I'll leave the island's defense in your hands," Edwin replied, then turned to Adrian and the others.Adrian responded without hesitation, "Rest assured, Mr. Edwin. We’ll take care of it."With that, the elders retreated to the cave on the island to begin their seclusion, leaving the island’s defense entirely in the hands of Adrian and his companions. For them, the real challenge was just beginning, as the responsibility now rested solely on their shoulders. Fortunately, Adrian and his group were

    In the face of overwhelming despair, the remaining apprentices of Dragon Palace began to waver under Ul'gal's spell. Sensing their weakness, he declared proudly, "The same offer goes to all of you. Accept the baptism of the shadow and you will receive the same treatment."His words were incredibly enticing, and a few apprentices slowly stepped out from the crowd, drawn toward Ul'gal, but Dragan shouted, "Stop! Snap out of it!"His words jolted the apprentices awake, leaving them confused as they looked around, shaken from the spell's grip. Ul'gal's offer had a powerful allure, especially for the weaker apprentices who were more vulnerable to his influence.Seeing Dragan interrupt him, Ul'gal's expression darkened. "Dragan, if you don’t wish to submit, that’s one thing, but why stop your apprentices? You know full well that if they swear allegiance to me, they’ll have a better life...""Hmph, the path of training requires one to forge ahead through trials and tribulations. Any short

    "Dragan! If you don't fight back, you'll die!"Suddenly, a burst of sword energy cut down several immortals. Everyone was startled and turned toward the voice, only to see an immortal charging forward, sword in hand, cutting down countless daemonized immortals on the spot."Dragul!" Dragan shouted, recognizing his savior.After swiftly carving a path through the chaos, Dragul yelled, "Dragan, take the items and retreat!""Alright!" Dragan had no other choice—retreat was their only option.Feigning an attack, Dragan quickly withdrew, following Dragul's lead. However, Ul'gal was unwilling to let them escape.He shouted, "And where do you think you're going?"As his words fell, countless beams shot toward them, but the two escaped with remarkable speed, leaving Ul'gal far behind."They got away." Ul'gal sighed as he watched them vanish.A subordinate beside him asked, "My lord, they escaped. Should we pursue them?"Ul'gal responded, "No need. They can run, but they can't hide fo

    However, before the subordinate could finish speaking, Ul'gal interrupted, "Issue my command and deploy the Daemon General Thundura to Gull Isle. No matter what, we must annihilate it!""Understood!" The subordinate quickly retreated to carry out the order.The faces of Ul'gal’s subordinates lit up with delight. They knew that Thundura was a formidable presence. Among the ten daemonic generals, four were particularly outstanding, and Thundura was one of them.After the loss of three daemonic generals, Ul'gal was clearly growing impatient. Sending one of his top four generals showed he was determined not to leave any chance for Adrian and the others."Lord Ul’gal, we have been waiting for this moment!""Those despicable humans have pushed us to the point where I must take action! It's utterly infuriating!" Ul'gal said coldly. "Moreover, the Primordial Core must not be left unguarded. We need to secure it, and our grand plan must proceed smoothly."Seven days passed quickly.

    The lightning was clearly targeting Gull Isle. The sky seemed to tear apart as the terrifying bolt descended with a deafening roar. The apprentices were stunned. They had never imagined the devastating impact such a fearsome lightning bolt could have on the island.Seeing the thunderbolt approaching, Adrian sprang into action. He leaped high into the air, surrounded by a radiant light that converged into a sharp, sword-like energy capable of piercing the sky. When the two forces collided, they created a massive electrical net over Gull Isle.Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle...The blood-red light spread across the sky and slowly dissipated. A figure bathed in thunder began to emerge from the clearing sky.Adrian coldly mocked, “Oh, another one seeking death!”The figure was Thundura, a formidable daemon general. He exuded terrifying power, but Adrian remained unfazed. To him, Thundura was just another boastful foe, and dealing with him was simply a matter of time. Adrian had already slain t

    “What did you say?” Thundura's eyes narrowed, his expression darkening.Adrian snorted and replied, “I don’t intend to repeat myself.” A powerful divine aura surged around him as he spoke, signaling that there was no room left for retreat.Thundura's body crackled with thunder, and the dark clouds above began to part. Within the roiling clouds, Adrian could see numerous daemonic soldiers brandishing their claws. It was clear Thundura was serious, having brought more daemonic minions than Adrian had anticipated.“Adrian, it looks like we’re in serious trouble!” Tyron warned.Adrian laughed heartily and replied, “Yes, but I believe good will prevail over evil. No matter how fierce these daemonic creatures are, they can’t match us.”Everyone agreed with his optimism, but Thundura taunted coldly, “Is that so? Then let me shatter your beautiful dream!”Without warning, a blood-red thunderbolt shot from the sky, targeting Adrian.Adrian smiled coldly and said, “Bring it on!” He soared

    Thundura, enraged, soared into the air, shouting, “You insolent fool! Face your death!”Adrian’s previous attack had thoroughly angered him. Now, the daemonic soldiers were launching their strongest attacks at Adrian and his group.Unfazed, Adrian roared, “Everyone, it’s time to fight! Give it everything you’ve got!”For days, the Purecastlers had been waiting for this moment. With the daemonic forces attacking, they were ready to act. Irene, Tyron, Orson, Simeon, and the other apprentices activated their formation, unleashing their combined power. Instantly, the Four Symbols—Dragon, Tiger, Vermillion Bird, and Tortoise—appeared over Gull Isle. The sacred beasts roared and clashed with the daemonic horde.Meanwhile, Thundura was enveloped in red lightning and thunder. He declared, “You will all die in this battle!”This was the Four Symbols Ultimate Formation, a powerful setup that Adrian had enhanced using Draco Veinergy. Today was its first deployment, and he was eager to test i

    With the might of the four sacred beasts, the situation began to turn in their favor.“This is great!” Everyone cheered.Under the relentless assault of the four sacred beasts, the daemons were unable to counteract the attack. However, Thundura did not withdraw. He merely fell back a few dozen feet and observed from a distance. He was not going to give up yet. He hovered in the air and started chanting incantations. Despite being able to hear the strange incantations, the others could not understand what was being said. They only knew that as the incantations continued, a massive and fearsome monster began to take shape in the middle of the battlefield.This monster was bathed in lightning. It had a mouth as large as the entire Gull Isle, and with a mere opening of its mouth, countless thunderbolts erupted forth.“This is bad!” Seeing the massive thunderstorm approaching, Adrian was shocked. He felt a sense of impending doom.Just as Adrian finished speaking, the thunderclouds i

    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
