“After more than a hundred years of development, he finally did it. Although he has never appeared, he turned Florence into his own domain. The emperors in our history have always been puppets.”Registus’ words were filled with bitterness.Andrius was astonished.A dictator...That meant monopolizing power, overriding the law, and using personal interests to control the will of the country and the lives and deaths of all people.A dictator did as they pleased arbitrarily with life and death at their whims.Although such a figure might be domineering, they were not qualified leaders. After all, the world ultimately belonged to the people, not to any one person.Registus continued, “In fact, when you started to deal with the ancient martial families, the Progenitor Emperor warned me not to go too far.“However, I knew your determination, so I suppressed this matter and didn’t tell you. It’s because of that that he deliberately showed up just now. On one hand, it’s to deter me. On
Andrius looked at Registus with burning eyes. “Registus, do you want to break free from his control?”Of course, Registus wanted to. He also knew what Andrius was trying to say.Overthrow the Progenitor Emperor!However, it was not that simple.“No!” Registus shook his head and said, “Andrius, I know that your strength has greatly improved recently. You have the Lycantroops, the Lycan Manor in which each person is a one-man army, the Dragon Manor that helps you, and the profound Medicine Sect. Your own strength is even more astonishing.“However, the Progenitor Emperor is a cunning person and has been in power for two hundred years. Do you know his secrets? Do you know where he is right now? Before we understand all of that, we must not act rashly. That’s the first reason.”Andrius silently nodded.Registus’ concerns were not without reason.Registus continued, “Furthermore, the Progenitor Emperor is the founding emperor. It’s not an exaggeration to say that he is admired by al
Luna thought about it and said, “Although the Progenitor Emperor’s power is vast, it’s not impossible to defeat him. First, with the influence of the Wolf King, you can also establish a trade guild that can rival the Everbright Guild.“Secondly, as for morality, you can let the emperor investigate that. As you said, the Progenitor Emperor is ambitious and must have grand schemes. Thus, there must be a weak point in this aspect.“Lastly, in terms of strength... You can try to contact the remaining forces in the ancient martial world. Maybe you can contend with him.”Andrius suddenly saw the light.Yes, he had to adopt measures based on the situation.Since he knew these three moves of the Progenitor Emperor, he could counter them one by one.“That’s a great idea!” Andrius praised, “Luna, there’s a saying that beauty is not as good as a clever mind, and a wise wife can support her husband’s aspirations. You’ve truly come up with a good strategy for me. I’ll go to the Medicine Sect
Kate saw the change in Andrius’ expression and smiled. “It seems you already have an idea in mind.”Andrius smiled and nodded. “Sect Master Klein, Kate, I’ll leave the alliance with the Sentinel Tower and the remaining forces of the ancient martial world to you. Please take care of it. There’s no time to lose, so I’ll take my leave now.”Since the decision was made, Andrius had to act swiftly.“Farewell!”Wade and Kate also bade him farewell.Several hours later, Andrius and Luna returned to Sumeria on a commercial flight.Andrius hurriedly made the arrangements.When they left the terminal, they accidentally bumped into a young master.“My bad,” Andrius apologized and then prepared to leave.“Hey, are you blind? How did you bump into me on such a wide road?” The young master started to berate Andrius.Andrius had achieved success with his cultivation and could not be bothered with these insignificant people. Thus, he grabbed Luna’s hand and walked straight out.Unexpectedly
Andrius did not expect to encounter him again at Celestial Enterprise.Forget it. It was fate. Since that kid was destined to face this calamity, it could not be stopped.Thus, Andrius strode over.“That’s more like it...” Felix thought that Andrius was afraid and immediately smirked proudly.Smack!The next moment, Andrius slapped him again.Felix was bewildered.“You! Fuck, how dare you hit me?!” Felix’s only thought was to beat Andrius until he could not take care of himself anymore.“Damn, how dare you hit people in Celestial Enterprise? Do you not know how to spell the word ‘death’?”“Kid, are you tired of living?”“Get him!”“Little brat...”Felix’s lackeys charged with wicked grins.Andrius’ lips curled as he did not hold back.Smack!Thud!Bam!...With his strength in the first Divine Step, dealing with these small fries was like cutting through butter.In less than ten seconds, all of them lay groaning on the ground. There was basically no difference betwee
Smack!When Sonia approached, she slapped Felix’s face without hesitation, making a resounding noise.Felix staggered again and hit his head with a loud thud, instantly swelling up. He was completely bewildered.What was going on?“Sonia…”It took a long time for him to steady himself, and he said with a sobbing face, “Sonia, w-why did you hit me?”“Why did I hit you?” Sonia stared at him with cold eyes. “I hit you for your wanton behavior! I hit you for stirring up trouble! I hit you for not recognizing that man!”Not recognizing that man? What did that mean?Felix was stunned, and he suddenly had a bad premonition.After scolding him, Sonia ignored him and quickly walked to Andrius.“Wolf King, I’m sorry! It’s because of my poor management that Celestial Enterprise has such a scumbag,” Sonia apologized sincerely.At that moment, she was no longer the mighty CEO of Celestial Enterprise. She was just a humble servant in front of the Wolf King!This scene made Felix tremble
“I was wrong! Sonia, I know that I was wrong... I was blind and didn’t recognize the situation! Please, don’t ban me! I was wrong... Sonia, you can’t ban me. I’m your cousin...” Felix wailed, cried, regretted, and reached the peak of fear, extremely miserable.However, while there were all kinds of things for sale in the world, there was no medicine for regret.Sonia glanced at him, her pretty face cold, and said indifferently, “Shut your mouth, Felix. You’re just a distant cousin of mine. Even if you were my brother, since you offended the Wolf King, there’s nowhere for you to stand in the whole of Florence!”Felix was dumbfounded.Sonia was being so heartless for the sake of the Wolf King!“Wolf King!” Felix had no choice but to beg Andrius. He crawled over on his hands and knees, not caring about the urine on the ground.In his mind, there was only one thought now: beg for the Wolf King’s forgiveness!“I was wrong! I was blinded by greed and...”Just as he was about to hug A
Sonia took a deep breath, steadied herself, and said, “This business guild will be encompassing too much. It might be difficult to implement with Celestial Enterprise’s current capabilities.“Celestial Enterprise’s momentum has been strong lately, but it’s limited to the East River State. If it involves other provinces... There may be some difficulties at the beginning, but given some time, there shouldn’t be any major problems.“The troublesome part is Kiyoto. As the political, economic, and cultural center of Florence, the forces in Kiyoto are already deeply rooted and extremely exclusive. It will be extremely difficult for Celestial Enterprise to establish a foothold there!”Sonia spoke from experience. It was easy to do business with companies in Kiyoto. Anyone who could make money would blend in very well.However, if anyone tried to seize their market shares, it would be like digging up their ancestor’s graves. It would trigger a frenzied siege, which would lead to having no
Noir immediately checked the life token.It was unbroken!This meant that Andrius was still alive, and he must have ascended to the Divine Realm.Noir was relieved.Remembering his responsibility to protect Luna, he exchanged a glance with Halle, Kate, and the others before quietly leaving.Not long after, a group arrived at the Immortal Demon Palace and began their cultivation, striving to ascend to the Divine Realm as soon as possible.In an ancient and desolate location, there were grand halls, statues of fierce beasts that still seemed lifelike despite the passage of time, sky-piercing pillars, and a sea of clouds...Everything looked majestic and awe-inspiring.However, it was eerily silent, like a dead land devoid of life.Until...Whoosh!A ray of light suddenly shot from the distance, moving at an unimaginable speed and entering the soul control orb at the center of the great hall.Then, a soul apparition started to form.It was none other than Andrius.He looked
Andrius’ condition was pretty bad.He thought that with his current realm and strength, he could handle the divine tribulation and successfully ascend to the Divine Realm.However, the strength of the divine tribulation far exceeded his expectations.He seemed to have easily dealt with the first strike.In reality, the moment the divine lightning struck his palm, the destructive force within it surged through his meridians and directly attacked his soul.As expected of the divine tribulation.So, Andrius did not dare to be careless anymore and immediately gathered his immortal essence to resist.However, that was just the beginning.Each divine bolt was stronger than the last, and their deafening sounds and unstoppable destructive power left Andrius in agony.The tribulation cloud showed no signs of dissipating, too. Instead, it grew even darker and heavier, pressing down on everyone until they could not breathe.Rumble—Crackle—The thunder rumbled relentlessly, and the li
If his true form was destroyed and his soul dispersed, the life token would shatter.That would be how Noir and the others would know about his situation.For the rest of his time, since short-term improvements were difficult at his level, he did not cultivate. However, Andrius meditated every day to calm his mind and clear his thoughts.Soon, three months passed.Sensing the increasingly intense presence of the tribulation, Andrius did not hide anymore and removed the effect of the Primordial Unity Pearl that was concealing his aura.Whoosh...An immense power surged forth, and massive tribulation clouds soon formed in the sky.At that moment, Andrius sat on top of a desolate mountain.A large crowd had gathered in the distance.It had been many years since anyone in the Immortal Realm had attempted the divine tribulation. Furthermore, Andrius had deliberately invited many people to witness the event to broaden the influence of the Lunarius Alliance.“Hiss... As expected of
Andrius chuckled. “It’s not that serious. I already have a plan.”“Tell me, Andy.”“I have an extraordinary treasure. The treasure itself contains its own independent space filled with countless treasures and living beings. Furthermore, the spiritual energy inside is ten, a hundred times richer than the outside world. I plan to entrust this treasure to you. Carve out a secluded area within it for Luna to recover.”Andrius slowly explained.The extraordinary treasure he spoke of was none other than the Immortal Demon Palace.With his current strength, crossing the divine tribulation would not be a problem.The Immortal Demon Palace was an independent realm constructed by the beings of the Divine Realm. Even figures like Cedric, the Blood Demon King, the Hidden Monarch, and the others had no choice but to follow its rules.Hiding Luna inside would ensure her safety.Of course, there was a small problem. If Andrius perished in the Divine Realm, as the owner of the Immortal Demon P
It was as if the dragon soul had always been part of his body.“How strange...”Andrius muttered to himself and continued to observe.Nothing happened.The dragon soul quickly integrated into his own without any further events.It only gave Andrius a vague sense of completeness, like something had filled a gap within him.It was a mysterious and eerie feeling.Swoosh...After the dragon soul left, the massive dragon bones collapsed, turning into a pile of white ash on the ground.It was clear that the dragon bones were preserved until now solely because of the dragon soul’s presence.“Forget it.”Seeing that the matter was settled, Andrius did not dwell on it.After glancing around and finding nothing unusual, he steadied himself, walked outside, and began thinking about his next move.“Andy!”“Wolf King!”“Andrius!”As soon as they saw Andrius, Noir, Halle, Kate, and the others rushed to him.While Andrius was absorbing the dragon soul, Noir had filled them in on the
Whoosh...Just as Andrius sent a wisp of his divine sense to investigate, an apparition suddenly emerged from the dragon bones.It was vague and ethereal, yet exuded a powerful aura.Gradually, it took the shape of a dragon.Andrius raised his brows. He was not surprised, though, let alone afraid.He looked at the dragon apparition, who looked back at him.Soon, the dragon apparition spoke in confusion, “Young man, I smell an extraordinary aura on you.”Smell...Many thoughts flashed through Andrius’ mind.What could a dragon find extraordinary? Perhaps it was the scent of the Divine Realm or the Void Thunder Dragon. Could it be the Divine Realm phoenix?The next second, the dragon asked, “Are you a descendant of the phoenix?”Andrius casually raised his hand, and a wisp of flame appeared at his fingertips. It was the phoenix’s true flame.“I knew it!”The dragon apparition trembled slightly.Then, its enormous eyes showed a trace of sorrow.Andrius frowned, sensing some
The remaining power of Andrius’ punch slammed into the man’s head viciously, like a hammer smashing a watermelon, splattering everywhere.“Hiss—”The captured cultivators could not help but gasp.Wow.Who was this guy? He was able to kill a mid-stage Aureate Immortal in just a single punch. Was he even human?Even Halle, Kate, and the others were dumbfounded.It had not been long since they last saw him, but he had already grown to be this powerful. It was completely unbelievable.The members of Dragon Immortal Sect were shocked and terrified.He was too strong!Even the sect leader was killed in one punch. They would be serving themselves up on a silver platter.At that moment, everyone kneeled.“Please have mercy!”“Please spare us.”It was the sect leader who ordered us to do this...”They groveled repeatedly, banging their heads until they bled. Though they did not dare stop.What was begging as long as they could live?However, Andrius’ words threw them into despai
“Andrius!”“Wolf King!”The group was instantly overjoyed when they saw Andrius.They soon snapped back to their senses, though. This was the heart of Dragon Immortal Sect, and they were in the middle of a sacrificial ceremony.“Run!”“Andrius, leave now. Don’t worry about us!”“That’s right. Just avenge us later!”They knew Andrius was strong, but they did not know how strong.After all, Dragon Immortal Sect was a powerful sect, and the sect leader and Grand Elder were all gathered in the hall.No matter how powerful Andrius was, he could not face off against so many opponents.Andrius could not help but laugh.However, before he could explain, Noir said solemnly, “Don’t worry. With Andy’s current strength, wiping them out will be as easy as slaughtering chickens.”Halle, Kate, and the others were stunned.Noir was extremely confident. Could Andrius have really become a great power in the Immortal Realm?While they were still in doubt...“It’s him!”The disciples immed
“It’s not a shame. As long as we awaken the true dragon’s soul, we can get any woman we want in the future.”“But it’s hard to find one that’s as beautiful and graceful...”The disciples drooled and spoke lewdly, but their actions were swift. They quickly restrained Halle and the others.Of course, they were not the only sacrifices.There were many other cultivators, even some powerful fiends and Demon Kings.“Let’s start!”In the center of the altar, Bernard saw that everyone was in place and gave the order.“Understood!”Everyone started to move.The disciples restrained Halle and the others firmly.The 108 core and elite disciples began channeling immortal essence, feeding it into Bernard’s body.In an instant, Bernard grew into a towering figure like a giant.It was one of his techniques.As he continuously chanted, the dragon bones in the center of the altar trembled slightly.It was clear he was trying to awaken the dragon.“No, I don’t want to die.”“You beasts!
