These three were bad news.Andrius immediately became wary and hid his own aura.Then, he cautiously and silently crept toward their direction, trying to locate them.After traveling for several miles, he heard the sounds of fighting.He had fought against them before, so he could instantly recognize that one side was the Hidden Monarch, Violet Thunderlord, and Blood Demon Lord.The aura of the other party was strange. Andrius had never met them before.However, it was not hard to tell that the other part was a powerful fiend.The overwhelming presence from it was imposing and stirred a deep sense of awe.Then, Andrius used a treasure he got from the Void Thunder Dragon to conceal his aura and made his approach.With how powerful the three were, he had to be extremely careful.If they found him and attacked him at once, he would be in trouble.After half an hour, Andrius found a perfect spot completely out of the trio’s line of sight and well-concealed by a powerful aura, ma
Now that they were planning to hunt down Depravity, he needed to think of a plan.However, the trio’s strength was formidable, so he only had one chance to strike.After making his move, he would have to flee immediately, no matter if it succeeded.The best outcome was to help Depravity and severely injure or even kill one or two of the three.Since that would be extremely challenging considering their strength, Andrius ruled it out.The next best scenario was to disrupt their plans, preventing them from killing Depravity and escaping unscathed.That way, he could ruin their goal, protect himself, and gain Depravity as an ally.After thinking about it, Andrius found the second option to be more feasible.Now that he had made up his mind, he began preparing.As the Hidden Monarch and the others attacked, Andrius memorized all their moves in case he had to face them head-on later.Another half an hour passed.The Hidden Monarch’s group had expended a lot of energy, and Depravi
After speaking, Depravity took the lead and ran into the distance.“Okay!”Andrius did not hesitate and immediately followed.In a short time, they covered a vast distance and quickly left the Hidden Monarch’s trio behind.However, they did not let down their guard.They knew the Hidden Monarch and others would not give up so easily.Sure enough, shortly after, three terrifying auras shot toward them like rainbows, chasing after them.There was no avoiding this.Although Andrius had the Phoenix Divine Plume, Depravity was too injured to run far. It was only a matter of time before they were caught.Furthermore, the Hidden Monarch and the others had already set their sights on the Four Calamities. Andrius had also been at odds with them for a long time with two map fragments in his possession...There was no way they would let him go.Now was the most critical moment.“Trying to escape? Just give up!”“An old beast and a little brat. Just wait for your deaths. Hahaha...”“
The three sneered and unleashed their own attacks.Swoosh...The Hidden Monarch let out a heavy scoff, enveloping himself in a protective barrier that greatly reduced the impact of the Phoenix’s true fire.Swoosh...The Blood Demon Lord exuded a rich energy, forming his own crimson domain that also resisted the flames.Crackle!The Violet Thunderlord summoned countless lightning serpents with a thought. Each time a flame approached, a serpent would strike it down.In the blink of an eye, the phoenix flames’ impact on the three was reduced to nothing.This was not the outcome Andrius wanted.With a wave of his right hand, endless lightning erupted around him.Crackling sounds echoed in the air.It was the lightning control technique he had comprehended after absorbing the lightning ichthyosaurus’ fiend core.At that moment, he did not aim to kill them. He just wanted to stall for time.Sure enough, the next second, the Violet Thunderlord sneered. “How dare you play with lig
“What do you mean?”The Hidden Monarch instinctively asked.Then, he realized something was wrong.Something was very wrong.He could not figure out what it was exactly, but his sharp intuition as a master made him feel an immense fear enveloping him.What was going on?The Hidden Monarch wanted to laugh. He had already injured Andrius to this extent and had the latter by the throat, making him unable to fight back.What could Andrius possibly do to make him fearful?However, he dared not laugh.He had only experienced that soul-deep fear once before. The time he came closest to death.As that feeling returned, the Hidden Monarch only had one thought—Run. Get out of there as fast and as far as possible.Swoosh—He was just about to fling Andrius away and flee.However, at that moment, Andrius grabbed the Hidden Monarch’s wrist as he was tossed aside.They were so close that he easily succeeded.“Hmph!”The Hidden Monarch snorted coldly. “Andrius, are you seeking death?
Although the Immortal Demon Palace was cut off from the immortal consciousness of powerful beings, it did not cut off the flow of the world’s energy!If the Hidden Monarch broke the restriction here and touched the realm of the gods, a divine tribulation would descend!That was what the Hidden Monarch was worried about.“Did you notice?”Andrius said cheerfully, “To be honest, you can’t blame me for this. This is the resort of a time disorder.”Time disorder?The Hidden Monarch frowned and soon thought of a possibility.“Yes, it’s exactly what you think.”Andrius’ smile widened. “You three broke my laws of time, causing the time around us to go haywire. There are shadows of the past and fragments of the future.“When you come into contact with those fragments, your strength keeps increasing until a divine tribulation descends or the Immortal Demon Palace’s restrictions annihilate you. Both outcomes sound great. Which one do you like, Hidden Monarch?”The Hidden Monarch’s expr
Andrius was startled and instinctively tried to get up and distance himself.“Ugh...”However, as soon as he moved, he realized that his body felt like it had fallen apart. The pain was so excruciating that he could not stand.He tried to circulate his immortal essence.However, his meridians and dantian were like a parched riverbed. Not a single drop of immortal essence could be gathered.Andrius chuckled bitterly, not knowing what he should do.“No need to panic, young friend.”The three giant beasts clearly saw Andrius’ nervousness and immediately explained, “We’re Depravity’s brothers. Since you saved its life, you’re naturally a friend of ours, too. We won’t harm you.”Although their tone was gentle and kind, their massive size and proximity made Andrius feel like thunder was exploding in his ears.Fortunately, he could sense their goodwill and remembered what happened.That was right!He had rescued Depravity from the Hidden Monarch and the others, but they were chased
Then, the three beasts took Andrius further in.Moments later, they arrived at a hall.Andrius looked closely.The hall was vast and empty, with nothing but luminous pearls on the ceiling and strange totems carved on the walls.At the far end was a platform with a single orb, round and smooth with a deep azure color.Looking at it, it seemed to contain an infinite power that drew his gaze in and made it impossible to turn away.“Phew...”Andrius used all his willpower to tear his gaze away.“That orb isn’t a simple object.”Ignorance glanced at the orb and spoke.Andrius asked curiously, “What is it, and what’s so special about it?”Ignorance glanced at Andrius and explained, “That’s the famous Primordial Unity Pearl which can merge everything into one and disrupt the heavenly order. It can also suppress your strength and delay the arrival of your divine tribulation.”Delay the divine tribulation...That was exactly what Andrius needed.Swoosh—The next second, he flew o
