Adrian sensed something unusual lurking in the shadows around them, and his expression became grim.

Beside him, Tyron looked a little surprised, realizing there might be something truly dreadful hiding in the dark. His expression reflected both curiosity and caution.

The Fire Unicorn opened its eyes wide with unease. Just moments ago, they had felt a powerful tremor reverberate through the air, yet whatever had caused it remained hidden from their sight.

As the one controlling the barrier, Adrian had felt the collision directly. Although he hadn’t seen the source, he knew that whatever was out there was purposefully concealing itself.

“Show yourself!” Adrian shouted, unleashing a surge of raw energy toward the shadows. His powerful strike slammed into the stone walls, causing them to tremble.

Boom!

The walls held firm as though it was crafted from indestructible metal. After the brief tremor, silence returned, plunging them into pitch-black stillness as if the entire encounter

    Adrian’s gaze grew colder as he said, “Let’s see where you can hide now."The monstrous figure before him writhed violently as gusts of wind swirled around it. Adrian’s face remained steely as he launched another powerful strike.The darkness was chased away, revealing a monstrous creature in full its form. Tusks protruded from its gaping jaws as countless tendrils came out of the beast’s enormous body, reaching out to cling to the nearby murals in a grotesque, nightmarish display. It looked like a twisted amalgamation of creatures, and it was a horrifying sight to behold.Adrian’s expression grew even colder as he took it all in. If not for his keen instincts, he might have already suffered a severe blow.A guttural roar erupted from the monster, sending tremors through the corridor. Its savage energy surged through the void as it lunged at Adrian with its massive jaws agape. Witnessing this, everyone froze. Even the Violet Rain Bird was shaken. In a hushed voice, it remarked, “

    Adrian's expression remained ice-cold as he watched the beast charged toward him. No matter how monstrous it was, he would crush it without mercy.Without hesitation, Adrian’s right hand radiated golden light while a crimson aura infused with soul energy surged from his left. He had learned to counter such eerie creatures by combining raw strength with attacks infused with spiritual energy. This creature likely thrived on more than brute force alone, and by employing soul-based assaults, Adrian figured that he might be able to penetrate its defenses.As Adrian's attack surged forward, the monster halted its advance, but it was already too late. The sacred energy struck its body with overwhelming force, sending it flying and crashing into the stone wall.The creature’s massive eyes locked onto Adrian in shock, seemingly unable to comprehend the fierce power the latter had unleashed. This force was so overwhelming that it sent shudders through the monster’s body. Even Tyron was visibl

    Adrian held nothing back, while Tyron was filled with apprehension. Adrian’s companions couldn’t be sure if he could handle the situation. Given the monster's terrifying strength, Adrian appeared somewhat diminished.Seeing that Adrian showed no signs of fear, the monster let out a deafening roar.“Die!” Adrian shouted, unleashing his ferocious power.Rumble!The entire space trembled, and Adrian noticed a strange force had stirred within the murals around him moments ago. The grotesque monster twisted its massive head while emitting a series of horrific sounds. In the next second, dark miasma poured from the creature.Adrian's expression remained icy. Meanwhile, Tyron and the others watched in tense silence, uncertain whether Adrian could withstand the creature's might. The monster's strange powers were terrifying, and it was clear that a misstep could lead to catastrophic consequences.After Adrian scrutinized the miasma, he said, "This power… It bears traces of daemonic energy

    Adrian stared back with an icy glare. "Foolish creature, how dare you challenge me? I’ll teach you that humans are not to be trifled with," he growled as he pulled out the Soul Devouring Sword.The battle had reached an intense climax, and it was clear the creature’s power was formidable. Without the sword, Adrian doubted he could match it.As Adrian unsheathed his weapon, a dark, menacing aura emanated from the blade. Sensing the malevolent force radiating from the sword, the creature took a few cautious steps back. Adrian smirked coldly. "Afraid now, are you?"Without hesitation, Adrian thrust the sword forward. The strike cut through the air as though it could tear through space itself. Caught off guard, the beast struggled to defend itself, trying to block both the incoming fist and the sword.The sound of metal clashing echoed. Then, with a sudden thrust, Adrian pierced through one of the creature’s tentacles. With a flick of the sword, he severed the tentacle completely.T

    Adrian’s expression grew cold as suddenly, a golden light emerged from the monster’s lifeless body. Adrian was surprised. By all logic, this creature had been pure evil, so how could such a radiant and holy glow emanate from it?Watching as the golden light began to move forward, Adrian quickly cast a barrier to contain it. The light seemed to try to escape but was soon trapped within Adrian's barrier.Tyron observed the strange glow. "Adrian, this light feels unusual. I sense a hint of holiness in it. It's so much so that even we daemon would be wary of it," he remarked with surprise.“This light resembles something akin to holy light, but it isn’t exactly the same,” Adrian murmured. “This tomb is turning out to be stranger than I thought.”Tyron nodded thoughtfully. “It might come in handy later. It’s said that in every ancient emperor’s tomb, there are items that seem out of place, but each has its purpose.”The statement made sense in its own way, and Adrian nodded in agreemen

    Ahead of them lay the white light the group had to traverse, and Adrian knew that they had to be cautious. One wrong move could send all of them into an abyss from which there would be no return.With a resolute expression, Adrian led the way and the tremors around them intensified. He took a bold step forward, and his three companions followed. Cold winds swirled around them as fragments of shattered space hurtled toward them."What’s going on? A chaotic space current?" Adrian muttered in disbelief. "It seems we’ve ended up in a disordered space. We might not be headed toward the emperor’s tomb at all."Tyron’s eyes widened. "This isn’t what I expected. Could it be that this place doesn’t lead to the ancient emperor’s tomb?"Adrian’s gaze hardened as he assessed the surrounding void and the deadly space fragments colliding with an explosive rumble. The terrifying sound was the result of fragments of space crashing into each other, sending shockwaves through the void. His unease de

    Adrian couldn't help but think that the ancient emperor must have been a bit too free with their time to devise all this.Suddenly, a deafening rumble echoed ahead as the void darkened. Bolts of divine lightning began to arc through the darkness. The sound crackled and snapped like the buildup of an impending storm.Adrian’s eyes widened slightly in surprise, while Tyron blurted out in alarm, “Spatial Divine Thunder? Our luck is extraordinarily bad, isn’t it?”This type of thunder was so rare in spatial travel that even in a million years, few would ever encounter it. Yet, it happened right in their path.The Violet Rain Bird looked equally surprised as it added, “Even a Fusion immortal would likely be obliterated by this.”Adrian felt a surge of tension. Though his strength was formidable, facing Spatial Divine Thunder was an entirely different challenge. Only someone at the Void Stage could hope to withstand its power. For most, encountering such a force was certain death.The

    Adrian sensed that these relentless challenges were tests from the ancient emperor to test the limits of their resolve. It seemed a little bit overwhelming, yet for the sake of legendary treasure and the mysteries buried in the ancient emperor’s tomb, they had to press forward.Boom!A terrifying explosion echoed through the air. The barrier was under tremendous pressure, and Adrian could feel a surge of divine lightning striking his body. It was as though it was testing his endurance against its immense force.Astonishingly, Adrian sensed that he could withstand it. Perhaps the earlier lightning he had absorbed had strengthened his body’s resistance. With a glint of madness in his eyes, he urged the others, "You guys hold the line. I’ll take on some of the load."Without hesitation, Adrian stepped outside the barrier. As he did, Tyron shouted, "Don't be reckless, Adrian! It’s far too dangerous!" The Violet Rain Bird shrieked anxiously, “Master Adrian, it's too dangerous! You can

    Crack… crack…The sound of shattering echoed through the air, reverberating across the desolate landscape. Adrian and Renee had emerged in a stark and barren mountainous region. Clearly, they were no longer in Death Valley.Boom!Renee felt herself land on something soft. She was stunned and couldn’t quite process what had just happened.However, she forced herself to calm down. As she regained her composure, she was overwhelmed by the suffocating weight of the dust-filled air. Looking around in confusion, she noticed that the surroundings were unfamiliar. What’s more, Adrian was nowhere to be seen.“Huh? Where did he go?” Renee muttered. Her gaze darted about until it froze on an unbelievable sight.To her surprise, Adrian was beneath her, barely clinging to life. His breathing was faint, and his body was limp as if death had already taken him. Renee gasped, utterly shaken. She hurriedly got to her feet and lifted Adrian. After she dusted him off, she looked at him with a mix

    Renee watched Adrian nervously, her expression filled with disbelief. After all, Death Valley had never been this terrifying before. Despite its ominous name, the actual danger wasn’t supposed to be this extreme.At this moment, Renee couldn’t figure out what they had triggered. Could their luck really be this bad? In the past, Renee had traversed this area alongside powerful warriors from Ciawales, even those at the Nascent and Fusion Stages, and they had passed through this valley with ease. But this time, the journey was unexpectedly difficult, fraught with numerous obstacles and dangers that left Renee utterly terrified.Fusions typically passed through this area without trouble. Even she and Adrian, who had slain the giant serpent, were effectively at that level of strength. By all logic, they should have been able to leave without any issues. But now, another monstrous entity had appeared, far more intimidating than anything they had encountered before.Adrian’s face darkene

    “Is he not going to wake up?” Renee’s expression was filled with anxiety.The situation was dire. The thunderbolts were almost upon them, threatening to annihilate everything. Yet Adrian remained immersed in his deduction, showing no signs of waking up as if he was fully absorbed in deciphering the formation.Indeed, when it came to analyzing formations, such meticulousness was necessary, especially when attempting to uncover its deadly traps. This task could not be rushed.Crackle, crackle, crackle…Serpentine lightning twisted through the sky, streaks of energy descending as if from the heavens, ready to shatter everything. The entire sky trembled, and it felt like the very fabric of reality was breaking apart.Rumble!The barrier trembled once more, and the entire space around them quivered violently. Despite its strength, the barrier now seemed barely able to hold against the unrelenting onslaught. The thunderstorm’s sheer power was not something any ordinary person could wit

    Adrian’s gaze sharpened as he released a wave of killing intent. “Hmph! So there’s still something left. Let’s shatter it once and for all!”Without hesitation, Adrian sat down cross-legged, summoning a powerful surge of energy that enveloped the barrier overhead. His forceful aura spread out, reinforcing the protective shield as he began to analyze the patterns of the formation around them.From the energy fluctuations, it was clear that this was not an ordinary formation. Deducing this, Adrian’s expression grew colder, his killing intent palpable.Boom!A powerful force reverberated, shaking the earth and sky. Renee was stunned. Adrian had once again entered a meditative state to break the formation. Should she assist him?The intensity of the attacks was overwhelming, and if Adrian were interrupted now, the consequences could be dire. Thinking of this, Renee prepared to make a move.“Don’t move. Stay put. This isn’t the same formation as before,” Adrian commanded sternly as if

    Adrian scanned his surroundings, his gaze sharp and icy cold. The darkness of the night seemed to carry an ominous presence. He halted, staring intently at Renee, and said, “Don’t rush.”Renee was momentarily stunned, a look of confusion on her face. “What’s wrong?” she asked.Renee hadn’t noticed anything unusual. The only thing she desired was to quickly leave this cursed place. The longer she stayed here, the more uncomfortable she felt.Whoosh!A fierce wind swept through Death Valley, making the towering trees shiver as though they were alive and fearful.Adrian’s expression turned even colder as he looked around and shouted, “Stop hiding! Show yourself!”The sudden outburst left Renee startled. She couldn’t tell if Adrian had lost his mind or if her own senses were just too weak. The air seemed empty, with nothing unusual. The biting cold wind had always been a part of Death Valley’s sinister aura, something Renee had always attributed to the place’s natural state.Adrian’

    Some daemonic beasts have a final self-destructive instinct upon death, causing their inner cores to explode and leaving nothing behind for humans to absorb. This was why an intact inner core was incredibly rare and precious.Yet, here Adrian was willingly giving one to her. Renee felt deep gratitude in her heart for this unexpected gesture.“Thank you. If I ever have the chance, I will repay your kindness,” Renee said with sincerity in her eyes.Adrian replied, “No need to thank me. You will certainly have the opportunity. Aren’t you my servant now? Protecting me is your duty. All right, let’s keep moving.”He continued moving forward. By now, it was already late at night.Renee gazed at Adrian, puzzled. She couldn’t figure out what kind of person he was. He treated her like a subordinate, yet his actions were more like those of a friend. She was finding it harder to understand Adrian’s intentions.But Adrian clearly had his own reasons. He wasn’t one to conform to expectations.

    "What did you say? You want me to absorb it? But this inner core… It's yours…" Renee stammered, utterly shocked that Adrian was offering her the inner core. She knew well how precious this inner core was.Absorbing a beast’s inner core would significantly boost one's strength. It wasn’t that Adrian didn’t understand this fact. But he still responded calmly, "Yes, you heard me right. I want you to have it. There’s no need to be so surprised."Renee’s eyes widened even further. She couldn’t believe Adrian was treating her this generously. After all, she was just his servant.But to Adrian, it was a worthwhile decision. He had always viewed Renee as an equal. When he was injured, not only did Renee refrain from attacking him, but she also didn’t seize the inner core. More importantly, she had given him her energy to help him recover.Adrian had now gained immense strength. If he were to absorb the inner core’s power on top of that, it might be too much for him to handle and could back

    Adrian chuckled lightly. "Why are you so excited? See, I'm awake now. If I never woke up, would you have stayed here watching over me forever?"Renee huffed, half-annoyed. "I’m not that foolish. If you hadn’t woken up, of course, I’d leave."Adrian smiled. "I need some time to recover. Can you keep watch for a little longer?""Sure!" Renee replied eagerly, beaming widely.Adrian then sat cross-legged and began his recovery. Watching him, Renee was filled with both shock and joy. It was nothing short of a miracle that Adrian had regained consciousness. Deep down, she felt a sense of relief mixed with surprise. She had never expected this outcome.At the same time, a flood of questions filled her mind. Normally, Adrian should not have survived such an ordeal. By all logic, he should have already been on his way to the afterlife. Yet, here he was, awake and alive. Renee found herself at a loss for words, overwhelmed by confusion.Seeing Adrian’s intense focus as he trained, Renee co

    At that moment, a sudden burst of earth-yellow light erupted within Adrian’s consciousness. It was once again filled with surging waves of power. The soul storm reappeared, and the mysterious chaotic white mist returned, spreading throughout Adrian's soul space.The strange and mystical scene looked astonishing, and slowly, Adrian began to wake up from his deep slumber. As he regained consciousness, he felt a soreness envelop his entire body. Even his soul power seemed to have a slight ache.But before Adrian could fully process this sensation, a terrifying force surged through him. It flooded his entire being with an overwhelming energy.“What...What is this? This power is incredibly strong,” he muttered, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. He could sense an immense energy roiling within his body, shaking his very core. The waves of power felt both foreign and potent, making him feel even stronger.Adrian’s expression turned to one of shock and unexpected delight. It was the
