With a cold expression, Adrian murmured, “This treasure seems to share a bit of fate with me. Come here, little treasure.” He extended his hand, and the treasure moved toward him without resistance as if it were meant for him.Adrian stowed it away and remarked casually, “With this in hand, it’s time to leave.”Lingering here was risky. He had no way of knowing if another powerful figure might arrive. Though his strength had grown considerably, he preferred to avoid being surrounded by a swarm of experts. The mere thought of it was unsettling. Keeping a low profile was the best choice.Without delay, the Violet Rain Bird carried Adrian and his companions swiftly away. In the distance, the onlookers watched with envy as Adrian obtained the treasure and made a quick, safe exit. His acute sense of self-preservation was evident. If they were in his position, they would likely do the same. Lingering offered no benefit.“Adrian is becoming an unparalleled prodigy. So young, yet so terrif
The sound of rapid footsteps echoed as numerous elders arrived at Guillermo’s palace. Guillermo’s expression was grim as he addressed them. “My fellow elders, I apologize for disturbing you with my outburst today,” he said as he composed himself.The elders understood immediately. They had already received news of Greg's death. Many were aware that Greg was Guillermo’s illegitimate son, although it was never openly discussed.The Third Elder said, “Elder Guillermo, we are aware of the situation. Adrian has indeed gone too far. To kill a prodigy of our Universe Alliance, he clearly doesn’t respect us.”The other elders voiced their agreement, wary of offending Guillermo whose strength was unmatched. Any dispute with him could jeopardize future relations.Still seething, Guillermo declared, “I will kill Adrian with my own hands and put an end to this matter. Do any of you object?”The elders quickly voiced their support. However, the Fifth Elder added, “But let us first recover th
The onlookers gasped at the elder's words, as though he’d conjured a vision of some terrible force. If such a being truly appeared, it could spell disaster for the entire Universe Alliance. Silently, they hoped Guillermo would defeat Adrian quickly and leave, sparing the Alliance from any further entanglements that might bring calamity.Unaware of the crowd's concerns, Adrian would likely have been unfazed even if he knew. In his eyes, he had every right to defend himself. Sitting on the back of the Violet Rain Bird, he examined the glowing purple treasure in his hand. He considered opening it but hesitated, worried that its release of power might alert powerful beings nearby. Taking a cautious approach, he stored it safely in his spatial ring.Turning to Tyron, Adrian asked, "Tyron, how much time do we have left?"“We have about ten days left," Tyron replied. "There’s still time to search for more treasures, though leaving with what we have wouldn’t be a loss.”Tyron’s recent brea
Adrian and his group no longer cared about finding a spirit treasure. Their only focus was to confront an old "friend" and settle scores. Neither Adrian nor Tyron were the type to let grudges go unanswered. While not heartless, they certainly didn’t turn the other cheek.Suddenly, deafening rumbles echoed in the distance as though a fierce battle was raging over an ancient relic. The powerful energy of this clash sent shockwaves through the nearby immortals, who stood stunned, sensing something monumental was happening.An elder murmured, “They say this realm holds the ancient tomb of an emperor from a long-lost era, rumored to contain unspeakable forces. With the way things are stirring up, could the tomb be opening?”The mention of an ancient emperor thrilled the crowd. Casting aside their caution, they quickened their pace, eyes gleaming with greed and excitement.The elder tried to warn them again. “Legends speak of terrible entities guarding this tomb, capable of unleashing ca
In the distance, terrifying waves of power spiraled through the air, while oppressive storm clouds loomed above as if part of a dark ritual. Drawn by the strange sounds and vibrations, immortals began arriving in droves. Soon, hundreds gathered at the site.In the heart of the mountains, a blood-red light surged upward, forming a formidable barrier that blocked everyone’s advance. When someone attempted to break through with a powerful punch, the barrier scorched their body on contact, sending them flying and knocking out several teeth.The crowd gasped in shock. This was no ordinary immortal but an Astral. Yet, he was repelled so easily. Realizing the danger, the onlookers watched with awe and caution.Adrian and Tyron arrived just in time to witness this scene. Approaching the area, Adrian instructed the Violet Rain Bird to shrink down and land discreetly in the shadows to avoid attention. With his recent treasure in hand, staying low-key seemed wise. Adrian sensed that many were
In the distance, the crowd watched eagerly, excitement growing with every moment."Could this really be an ancient emperor’s tomb?" one murmured."Why does it feel so overwhelming?" another asked, awestruck."If there are truly endless opportunities inside, and if this is indeed the tomb of an emperor, it must contain powerful techniques," someone reasoned. "Whoever obtains them could even establish their own sect!"The crowd's anticipation mounted with each word.Adrian, taken aback, wondered if such a tomb could indeed exist here. Ancient emperors’ tombs didn’t just appear by chance. These emperors had reached the pinnacle of power, their talent and strength so extraordinary they were second only to deities. They were capable of devastating entire worlds with a single strike.Tyron was equally stunned. “Could they be right?” he asked, his eyes wide. “If this is truly an emperor’s tomb, it must be filled with unimaginable treasures. And if it contains an emperor’s techniques, it
The surge of powerful newcomers made things difficult for Adrian and his group. More competitors meant that claiming any prize would be tougher. And with so many vying for a share, there wouldn’t be enough for everyone.Yet, if this was truly the tomb of an ancient emperor, any treasure inside could bring unimaginable fortune. Even a single artifact from such a figure could greatly boost one’s power and status, given the fearsome reputation of these ancient emperors.Adrian’s gaze sharpened as he sensed a chilling presence in the distance. Moments earlier, he’d caught the aura of an immortal at the perfected Divine Stage. It was a sign that serious players had entered the fray. It likely meant a high-stakes showdown was coming, and Adrian knew that, for now, keeping a low profile would be wise.Turning to Tyron, Adrian suggested, “Maybe we should disguise ourselves to avoid unnecessary trouble.”“Good idea,” Tyron agreed.With a swift motion, Tyron altered his appearance, impressi
Adrian shook his head in mild exasperation, feeling Tyron had underestimated the power of this technique. If humans struggled to detect such "tricks," then the daemons might indeed cause chaos.Only now did Adrian understand how the daemons had remained so elusive. Without grasping the methods behind these hidden techniques, they were nearly impossible to detect.Suddenly, a thunderous boom erupted from afar as someone launched an assault on the barrier. The attacker’s impatience reached a peak as he bellowed, “Damn it!”Adrian watched, mild disbelief on his face, as the person hammered recklessly at the barrier. I was as though he believed he could shatter it by force. Yet, the barrier was formidable and would not yield easily.The barrier shuddered under the relentless assault, seeming almost ready to break. The crowd looked on in astonishment, their eyes widening as they held their breath, shocked that the supposedly impenetrable barrier might actually give way.Then, a deafeni
