Renee couldn't believe Justin's persistence. His scheme was transparent—if she joined the expedition, Ciawales would be left unguarded against his ambitions, giving him the perfect opportunity to seize control.

But Renee had no intention of letting him succeed.

With a frosty expression, she retorted, "Justin, your strength isn't lacking either. In fact, you're the most suitable person to lead the rescue mission."

Her sharp gaze bore into him. "If you can live so comfortably in Ciawales, it's only because Michael stabilized the court. Without his efforts, how could you have such an easy life?"

Justin sneered, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "Oh? Do you truly believe Michael is capable of that? If it weren't for Ciawales dispatching its army, do you think he could have held out this long?

"Ultimately, he still failed and got himself captured. Michael is truly worrisome," he added, his cold laughter echoing as he walked away.

Renee's fury burned as she watched him leave. Clenching

    Adrian smiled faintly. Tyler was indeed dedicated, always focused on military strategy, but such a rigid mindset wasn't always advantageous.When someone became trapped in fixed patterns of thinking, they risked losing perspective."Sir Tyler, you're not wrong," Adrian said, "but today, what I want you to do isn't about military tactics. It's about honing your abilities. From now on, you will begin intensive training—what I call hellish training."The soldiers froze, perplexed. What could this mean?Adrian was once again proving to be an enigma. They couldn't fathom what he had in mind."All officers, hear my orders!" Adrian's voice rang out, commanding attention."You will train in separate groups. I will teach you techniques and formation strategies."Look at the blazing sun above—it's the perfect time to absorb its energy and strengthen yourselves."The soldiers stood stunned.Absorb energy from the sun to grow stronger? This was a concept they had never encountered before.

    Adrian's words left the group in stunned silence.Tyler, still skeptical, remarked, "This matter was reported directly to King Basil. If someone tampered with the information, they must be incredibly audacious."At Tyler's observation, the group's expressions grew grim.Adrian's sharp gaze swept over them as he replied, "The Second Prince is already missing. Isn't that crime enough to be considered treason? If they dared that, what wouldn't they do?"The logic of Adrian's statement sent an icy wave through the group. The terrifying prospect left many uneasy.Adrian's killing intent sharpened as he turned his attention to Tyler. "Since I've pointed this out, take it as your reminder to act immediately."Cold beads of sweat broke out on Tyler's brow, and he felt a shiver down his spine. Adrian's piercing gaze carried an oppressive weight that made his chest tighten. "Yes, Sir Adrian!" Tyler responded without hesitation, immediately moving to organize the investigation.Adrian's

    Adrian's eyes gleamed sharply as he asked, "Primeria soldiers have been spotted? How many?""I sent men to investigate further, but they couldn't gather much information," Tyler replied. "They only managed to reach the mountain's outskirts before being completely wiped out by the Primeria soldiers."Adrian chuckled, his long hair swaying lightly, an aura of dominance radiating from him and leaving Tyler in awe of his overwhelming presence."Then let's head for the Great Dragon Mountain," Adrian declared, his tone icy with determination. "I want to see for myself just how fierce these soldiers really are."Tyler hesitated before voicing his concerns. "Sir Adrian, if we march hastily, we can't rule out the possibility of an ambush near the Great Dragon Mountain."The Primeria forces often operate in numbers ranging from tens of thousands to even hundreds of thousands."The area is vast and covered in dense forests. If enemy troops are lying in wait, we could be at a severe disadvan

    A complex emotion flickered in Tyler's eyes. He couldn't quite name it, but deep down, he was relieved he hadn't seriously offended Adrian in the past.If he had, he would never have witnessed such a moment."Since you're unafraid, I'll give you one hour to rest and recover on the spot. I want to see you at your peak. Can you do that?" Adrian asked."Yes, we can!" the soldiers roared ."Sit!" Adrian commanded.Immediately, forty thousand soldiers sat down in perfect unison.These battle-hardened men were unstoppable.Tyler suddenly realized that under Adrian's leadership, a miracle might truly be possible. His anticipation grew, and his eyes reflected a mix of admiration and excitement.For the first time, he felt he had truly aligned himself with the right leader.Time passed as Adrian closed his eyes.

    The Great Dragon Mountain stood eerily silent, its imposing peaks shrouded in an air of mystery.Adrian's gaze swept over the scene, and he chuckled coldly. "Not bad, but this is hardly enough to pose a threat."Hearing this, Tyler looked startled, unable to grasp Adrian's meaning."Sir Adrian, some Primeria soldiers are exceptionally skilled," he said cautiously. "They possess an invisibility technique that allows them to blend seamlessly into the forests. Their presence becomes almost undetectable. We must tread carefully."Adrian's expression hardened at Tyler's warning. "Invisibility, is it? Let's see how well they can hide from me."His tone was icy, his gaze brimming with killing intent.Tyler immediately recognized the warning signs of Adrian's mounting impatience but wisely refrained from saying more.Once Adrian made a decision, no one could sway him. To him, any obstacle in his path was mere rubble to be crushed. His focus remained unshaken, locked on fulfilling his go

    The soldiers were instantly invigorated, their spirits ignited by Adrian's fearless demeanor. If their commander showed no fear, what reason did they have to cower?To these troops, Adrian was the epitome of the leader they needed. With him at the helm, they felt an unshakable confidence that victory was not only possible but inevitable.Suddenly, a powerful ripple of energy surged from the distance. The sheer force was terrifying, yet Adrian simply smirked."Oh? Couldn't hold back any longer? I was beginning to wonder how much longer you'd keep hiding like a coward," he remarked, his voice laced with disdain.With a casual wave of his hand, the incoming wave of energy disintegrated into nothingness."Form ranks!" Adrian's voice boomed across the battlefield, reverberating through the army.In an instant, the soldiers snapped into formation with precision and discipline."Attack!" Tyler's voice echoed, signaling the start of what had become routine drills during their training.

    These figures radiated powerful aurae.Among them stood over a dozen formidable Astral Stage warriors, flanked by a host of soldiers exuding sheer ferocity.These elites' presence stunned everyone. Adrian's army momentarily faltered, their eyes wide with shock and apprehension."Sir Adrian, what should we do now?" Tyler asked, his voice edged with alarm.Adrian, however, smiled calmly. "No need to panic. Let's see just how 'terrifying' these so-called elites truly are.""Haha! What a joke!" one of the elites sneered. "People of Ciawales, I'll give you one last chance—leave this place immediately!"Adrian chuckled at the threat. "Oh? Is that so? Then allow me to counteroffer: surrender and take your own lives now."His audacious words rendered everyone speechless.A surge of energy exploded from the Primeria elites in response. Their killing intent was palpable, and their collective strength was suffocating.Adrian, however, remained unfazed."Very well. Let's see what you're

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?

    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.

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.

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.

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.

    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.

    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.

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.

Any attempt to bypass its unseen barriers would provoke a devastating strike."Ridiculous," Adrian muttered.
