The dark beast roared in anger and frustration. From its perspective, Adrian was utterly despicable for going back on his word.Adrian chuckled lightly. "Don’t say it like that. We're all honest people here. You saying that makes me feel a bit awkward. Besides, I didn’t lie to you, nor did I go back on my word. Everything I said was the truth. But how can I know whether you're telling the truth without verifying it?"Adrian's simple response only fueled the beast's rage. It couldn’t comprehend how Adrian could be so shameless. Yet Adrian seemed convinced that his reasoning was sound, and to him, it truly was.Without further hesitation, Adrian began to absorb the dark beast's soul with wild intensity, violent energy surging into him. He felt immense satisfaction as his soul power grew significantly stronger.Tyron and the Violet Rain Bird stood nearby, realizing they had no opportunity to share in the soul power. The energy was too immense and powerful, and since Adrian completely
At that moment, Adrian led the others back to where they had started, hovering above the man-eating flower. Above them, a trace of black energy lingered. It was remnants of the dark beast's terrifying power that had not yet dissipated.Adrian glanced at the black energy and said, "What a pity. If you hadn’t provoked me, you might have continued living. But now it seems it’s too late for that."He smiled lightly, surprising Tyron and the Violet Rain Bird. They knew just how terrifying Adrian had become. His power was beyond words. His tone was almost nonchalant as if he were brushing off the entire event."It’s time to leave," Adrian added. He unleashed a burst of golden light, his formidable power radiating from his hands.Boom!The entire sky trembled as the space around them shattered in an instant. Seeing this, Adrian’s expression grew cautious. "Let’s hope there aren’t any other fools who don’t know their place." He was aware that many lurking dangers still watched them from
Whoosh, whoosh!Winds howled violently, mountains and rivers trembled, and even the towering trees shivered in fear. The earth quaked uncontrollably beneath Adrian's immense power. His strength had reached a level where each movement felt capable of tearing the world apart, causing everything to tremble in his wake."Adrian's power is truly beyond our reach," Tyron remarked, feeling a mix of inadequacy and awe."Indeed, it’s terrifying. Master’s strength could destroy the heavens and the earth," the Violet Rain Bird added in agreement.Adrian’s power was undeniably frightening. If not handled with care, it seemed he could shatter everything in an instant.With a cold expression, Adrian delivered a fierce punch, combining the force of his fist with the power of the runes. His strike pierced through the void.Crack!The space shattered instantly, leaving a gaping hole in the fabric of reality. A horrifying aura emanated from the spatial break, sending chills down the spine of anyo
This intriguing adventure was fraught with relentless danger. One misstep and the three of them might never return alive.Adrian gazed into the distance. Although they had entered the deeper parts of the secret realm, it felt like they hadn’t fully delved in yet. Pushing further seemed increasingly difficult, and his expression turned cold as he looked ahead."I wonder how much longer until we find the Prism Stone and the Enlightenment Tree," he wandered.The Violet Rain Bird responded with equal seriousness, "We need to proceed cautiously, using hidden methods to suppress our presence and avoid unnecessary trouble. The deeper we go, the more advanced Divine beasts we’ll encounter. If we provoke them, it could lead to a terrible battle, and that would be the end of us."Adrian was surprised by the suggestion, but he nodded. "Alright, we’ll do it your way. Moving further in will be risky. We must stay cautious." He understood that rushing forward recklessly could trigger a crisis to
The fiery beast looked more terrifying than ever as its fireball scorched everything around it, heading straight for Adrian and the others.Adrian's expression hardened. "Whatever it is, it dies if it comes for us," he said.The Violet Rain Bird was briefly stunned by Adrian's determination. Knowing his immense strength, the bird realized that Adrian was ready to unleash his full power."Be careful, Master. This creature seems to be at the early Divine Stage," warned the Violet Rain Bird. "It’s not only strong but also a pure-blooded ancient beast."Adrian's eyes narrowed. "If it comes after us, it's ready to die."Without another word, Adrian unleashed his power. But before he could intercept the fireball, the cry of a beast erupted from within the flames."What is that?" Adrian asked as a small figure emerged from the fiery sphere.“That...That's a Fire Unicorn!” gasped the Violet Rain Bird.“A Fire Unicorn? Isn’t that an ancient divine beast?” Adrian was shocked as the flame
Adrian's eyes lit up with interest, and Tyron, along with the Violet Rain Bird, knew trouble was coming. The Fire Unicorn had caught Adrian's attention, and when something like that happened, things rarely ended well. From their experience, whatever Adrian focused on faced one of two fates—submission or death. There were no exceptions.The Fire Unicorn had provoked them first. Had it just retreated quietly, things might not have escalated.Adrian’s voice was cold as he spoke, "Sorry, little one. You have only one choice now: submit or die. Make your decision."His words sent a chill through the air. The Fire Unicorn roared in fury, eyes locked on Adrian as if it wanted to tear him apart."Trying to intimidate me, are you? Impressive. A Divine Stage unicorn is no small feat. If you can break out of the cage I’m about to set, you’re free to go," Adrian said calmly.With a wave of his hand, Adrian summoned a cage around the Fire Unicorn. The creature thrashed violently, determined to
The formation trembled again, but nothing happened.Adrian smiled at the sight. "Not bad. Keep going, don’t stop."Though small, the Fire Unicorn wasn’t foolish. It sensed the mocking tone in Adrian’s words, but surrender was not an option. It thrashed wildly, fighting with all its might to break free.Adrian’s face showed a flicker of surprise. The unicorn was consumed by rage, and that was exactly what he had been waiting for.To him, the best way to subdue a mythical beast was to overwhelm it with strength when it was most vulnerable. The Fire Unicorn, still in its infancy, was at the perfect stage for taming. Despite its size, its potential was enormous, and Adrian knew this might be his only chance to gain control of such a formidable creature.The Fire Unicorn continued its desperate struggle, but the formation's oppressive power held firm. No matter how fiercely it fought, it couldn’t break free. It glared at Adrian, anger burning in its eyes, frustrated at being trapped so
"Oh! Do you want this flame I possess?" Adrian asked with a smile. "If you're willing to submit to me, I can teach you how to wield it."The Fire Unicorn's large eyes flickered with uncertainty, and its fiery body trembled slightly. It seemed to consider Adrian's offer. Submission sounded simple enough, but the creature didn’t realize there was more to it than just surrendering.Tyron and the Violet Rain Bird were momentarily stunned. They sensed that Adrian was baiting the Fire Unicorn with promises that seemed too good to be true. It was as though he was dangling an irresistible offer, and the two onlookers couldn’t help but be surprised. Why was the Fire Unicorn so captivated by Adrian’s flame? They couldn’t quite understand.Adrian, still composed, continued, "It’s time to decide. Refuse, and I’ll have no choice but to roast you with this flame. By then, it’ll be too late for regrets."The Fire Unicorn’s pupils flashed with fear as it listened. Realizing it had no other option,
