Ascendant Among All Chapter 131 (The Quest for the Celestial Artifact)
The moon hung high above the towering Telbarian Guild headquarters, casting a silver sheen over its marble exterior. Beneath the pristine surface, hidden from ordinary eyes, lay a secret vault known only to the elite—a place where celestial relics, treasures of immense power, were stored. Jeremy and his team had spent months planning for this night, and now it was time to seize what they needed to complete the Soul Ladder.Jeremy adjusted his black hood and glanced at his companions. Kade, Felicia, and James stood silently beside him, their faces illuminated by the faint glow of a glyph James had just deactivated to disable the warding around the vault entrance."Remember," Jeremy whispered, his voice a low hum. "This isn’t a fight we can afford to drag out. In and out—quick and quiet."Kade smirked. "When is it ever quiet with us?"Jeremy rolled his eyes but didn’t respond. The iron door groaned as it slid open, revealing a descending staircase bathed in pale blue light. Without hesi
Ascendant Among All Chapter 132 (First Encounter with a Celestial Scout)
The streets were quiet that night, cloaked in an unsettling calm. Jeremy had grown accustomed to the hum of tension in the air, like a predator sensing another in its territory. Something wasn’t right. His instincts told him that the celestial realm, after months of silence, had finally noticed his growing power. He could feel the shift—an unfamiliar presence.He closed his eyes, letting his senses expand, searching. That’s when he felt it—a faint pulse of energy hidden beneath layers of disguise, like a flickering star masked by thick clouds. Whoever it was, they didn’t belong here."Found you," Jeremy whispered with a grim smile.The trail led Jeremy through the outskirts of the city, where the lights faded and shadows reigned. He followed the subtle pulse of celestial energy to an abandoned industrial complex, its cracked windows and rusting beams giving it an eerie atmosphere.Inside, the air was thick with the smell of oil and decay. And ther
Ascendant Among All Chapter 133 (Into the Celestial Realm I)
The air buzzed with tension and power. In the heart of Jeremy’s estate, Jessica stood before the glowing construct of the Soul Ladder, her hands dancing over ancient sigils that shimmered with vibrant energy. The structure was massive—a spiral of arcane symbols and blackened stone, pulsing in rhythm with the cosmos. It was an unholy bridge, stitching together the fabric between Earth and the celestial realm.Jeremy stood silently behind her, his face shadowed, his thoughts heavy. This was the moment he had prepared for—a culmination of all the decisions, sacrifices, and battles he had endured. Today was his nineteenth birthday. The day everything would change.As the final touches were completed, Jeremy summoned Elijah, the guild master of the Dark Horses Guild, along with key members from his first-ever alliance. They gathered in the great hall, their expressions filled with a mixture of loyalty and unease. The people who had once fought beside him now looked at h
Ascendant Among All Chapter 134 (Into the Celestial Realm II)
Jeremy’s gaze drifted upward as the guardians descended. These beings were unlike anything he had ever seen—humanoid shapes forged from pure celestial energy, their forms flickering like flames and stardust. They towered over the intruders, standing between ten to twelve feet tall, with long limbs and wings made of translucent crystal feathers that shimmered with divine light. Their eyes were featureless, glowing orbs of brilliance, devoid of emotion, yet filled with unyielding purpose.Each guardian bore a weapon suited to their role—halberds carved from starlight, spears of radiant fire, and shields that glowed like miniature suns. Their bodies shifted with every movement, as if their forms could not decide whether to remain solid or dissolve into mist.Jeremy tightened his grip on his katana, feeling the dark energy hum beneath his skin. Kade shifted beside him, muscles tensed and ready, while Noctis crouched low, already calculating his next move. They had barely stepped into the
Ascendant Among All Chapter 135 (Into the Celestial Realm III)
The air in the celestial realm felt heavier than before, as if the world itself were aware of Jeremy and his allies’ presence, waiting silently to swallow them whole. The golden mists swirled lazily around them, shimmering rivers of starlight winding underfoot. Jeremy stood still, eyes closed, attempting to read the alien energy surrounding them—but even his sharpened senses felt muffled here, as though the plane itself sought to hide its secrets.Kade, ever impatient, broke the silence.“What now?” Kade blurted, his voice brimming with tension.Noctis shot him a sideways glance, his tone cool and mocking. "Must you whine every time we stop? Do you ever shut up?"Kade’s grin spread wide, his annoyance bubbling over. "You know, I never liked you in the first place. Should have stayed in your own damn guild."Noctis tilted his head slightly, his smirk razor-sharp. "Yet here I am. Deal with it."Before Kade could fire back, Mary's voice cut through the tension like a whip."That's enoug
Ascendant Among All Chapter 136 (The Queen of the Trunks)
The mist thickened as Jeremy and Noctis ventured deeper into the alien forest. They knew something lurked nearby, hidden among the towering trunks and glowing foliage. Then, the forest stirred, and the first of the beings emerged—creaking giants of bark and leaves, humanoid in shape but utterly inhuman.These beings were immense, towering like ancient trees come to life. Their faces were rough-hewn, like carved wood, and their eyes glowed a fierce yellow, devoid of warmth or mercy. As more of them emerged from the shadows, Jeremy counted at least seventy surrounding them in a silent, menacing formation.Noctis cracked his knuckles, his usual grin creeping onto his face. "What took you so long to show up?" he taunted, spinning his dagger between his fingers. "I’ve been itching for a fight."Jeremy’s sharp gaze moved over the assembled beings. They didn’t seem like much of a challenge—not to him, at least. He had anticipated stronger resistance, but this was
Ascendant Among All Chapter 137 (Clash by the River of Starlight)
The river beneath Kade’s feet shimmered like molten silver, each ripple casting tiny stars into the air as if the cosmos itself was flowing through the stream. The air hummed with ethereal energy, making every breath feel heavier and more potent. The path seemed endless, stretching far beyond what the eye could see, winding through towering groves of astral trees that glowed with pale blue light.Kade sighed in frustration, brushing a hand through his disheveled hair. "Is there no end to this?" he muttered, more to himself than to anyone else.Mary walked beside him in silence, her thoughts far away. She had followed Jeremy for years, not only as his trusted assistant but as someone profoundly indebted to him. He had unlocked her potential, dragging her from mediocrity and thrusting her into greatness.Jeremy had taken her under his wing when she was barely scraping by at the peak of C+ rank. Under his relentless guidance, along with rare pills and potions
Ascendant Among All Chapter 138 (Sea God)
Kade groaned, pulling himself to his feet. "We’re not gonna make it like this," he muttered, wiping blood from the corner of his mouth.Mary’s mind raced, searching for a solution. They couldn’t defeat this creature through brute force alone. They needed strategy."We need to focus on the smaller ones," she said, glancing at Kade. "If we take them out, we can isolate the big guy."Kade nodded. "Got it. Let’s clear the field."With renewed resolve, the group launched themselves back into the fray. Kade and Mary fought side by side, cutting down the smaller creatures with relentless precision. Bit by bit, they thinned the horde, forcing the Sea God to fight alone.The Sea God snarled, realizing its minions were falling. It raised its trident for one final, devastating strike.But before it could bring the weapon down, Kade surged forward, sliding beneath the monster’s guard and slashing at its exposed leg.The Sea God roared in pain, its balance faltering for just a moment."Now, Mary!"

Chapter 160 (The Unyielding Titan)
The air around them crackled with an oppressive, unnatural tension as Typhon stood motionless, towering over the battlefield like a living storm. His eyes, glowing like molten fire, were locked onto McCoy and his guild, his cold expression betraying no hint of mercy.A grotesque, unsettling noise filled the air. Typhon made an odd, guttural sound, and slowly, methodically, he stuck his massive hand down his throat. The movement was unnatural, almost alien, as he dug deeper, pulling something from within him. The sound of slick, greasy slime slithering over the ground followed, enough to make anyone with a semblance of sensitivity to retch.“Nu-ah...” Typhon muttered in an unsettling tone, his voice resonating deeply as his monstrous hand gripped the hilt of a weapon.From his throat emerged a sword—an absurdly long and grotesque blade, dripping with thick, viscous fluid. It was no ordinary weapon. The blade itself seemed to pulse, radiating a malevolent energy that made the air feel t
Chapter 159 (A Call to Retreat)
The flames didn’t stop with Jim. The fiery blast tore through the air, its heat warping the atmosphere. Buildings miles away were scorched clean, their facades riddled with perfectly circular holes as though a god’s spear had pierced them. Those not incinerated crumbled from the sheer force of the blast, collapsing in a cacophony of destruction.Even McCoy, standing far from the epicenter, felt the intense heat lick at his skin. His magically enhanced senses allowed him to track the blast’s trajectory, and what he saw sent chills down his spine.The devastation extended far beyond the city, leaving a trail of ruin in its wake. Streets buckled, trees withered to ash, and the ground itself cracked and smoldered. All of this happened in less than five seconds, yet the aftermath stretched for miles.A cold sweat ran down McCoy’s back as the reality of Typhon’s power sunk in. His hands trembled as he took in the scope of the destruction, but he forced himself to stay composed.“This isn’t
Chapter 158 (The Gambler’s Wager)
McCoy stood frozen, his mind racing through every piece of mythology he had ever read. His analytical nature warred with his instincts, both screaming at him to act but in entirely different ways.Before him stood Typhon—the youngest son of Gaia, a monster of unparalleled power. A being feared even by gods, Typhon’s mere presence warped the air, bending it to his will. His form loomed over the battlefield, a tempest of chaotic energy swirling around him."The youngest son of Gaia," McCoy said, forcing his voice to remain steady. "Surely you do not want to destroy a part of yourself."Typhon’s glowing eyes narrowed, his thunderous voice reverberating like an earthquake. "Huh? It seems this young mortal here is a fan of mine.""You could say that," McCoy replied, wiping the sweat rolling down his temple.He wasn’t lying. Since childhood, McCoy had immersed himself in the stories of gods and monsters, legends and myths that spanned cultures and centuries. Much to his parents’ dismay, he
Chapter 157 (Exhaustion)
Elijah stood firm, his voice steady despite his labored breathing. “Fighting isn’t just about brute strength,” he declared, his words cutting through the chaos. “Sometimes, wisdom outmatches power.”The words had barely left Elijah’s mouth when a deafening blast tore through the battlefield.Soren’s body was flung backward, forced deeper into the earth as concentric circles of light—white, gold, and red—engulfed him. Each explosion was more devastating than the last, the ground shattering beneath him in a cascading storm of debris.The battlefield transformed into a massive crater, the destruction extending for miles. Smoke and fire erupted from the epicenter, painting the sky in ominous hues.From a distance, Elijah and James watched the chaos unfold. They panted heavily, their bodies trembling from exhaustion. Blood dripped from their wounds, pooling beneath them as they knelt on the cracked earth.“Did we get him?” James asked, his voice hoarse and uncertain.Elijah didn’t respond
Chapter 156 (A Deadly Dance)
Two figures stood amidst the wreckage of a city torn apart by their power. One radiated a blinding, ethereal light, while the other exuded a suffocating darkness that seemed to pulse with a life of its own. Their combined presence created a storm of energy that rippled outward, shaking the city to its very core and filling the air with a foreboding sense of impending doom.“Yo,” James sneered, his voice carrying a sinister edge. The shadowy aura around him writhed and twisted like a living entity, its tendrils snaking across the ground as if searching for prey.Soren stood across from him, grinning wickedly. His red aura flared with malevolent energy, a living flame that seemed to consume the air itself. A glowing crimson rod formed in his hand, jagged and pulsating with chaotic energy, its shape constantly shifting like molten lava.“This is going to be fun,” Soren declared, his voice dripping with sadistic glee.The moment the words left his mouth, the ground beneath them shattered.
Chapter 155 (The Last Stand)
The battlefield was chaos incarnate, the ground trembling under the immense force of their clash. Elijah stood amidst the destruction, his chest heaving with ragged breaths. His once-pristine white suit was now in tatters, his body marred by countless bruises and cuts. Yet, his eyes burned with an unyielding resolve.Across from him stood Soren, his figure exuding an aura of superiority. His crimson gloves gleamed ominously, his sly grin a cruel mockery of the man struggling before him.“You sure are strong for a mortal stuck in the A-rank,” Soren remarked casually, his voice dripping with condescension as he adjusted the base of his gloves.Elijah didn’t respond immediately, his mind racing as he worked to suppress the pain from his injuries. The earlier kick had done significant damage, and he knew he couldn’t afford to falter now.“Twenty minutes,” he thought, focusing his energy inward to heal his ravaged organs. “That’s all I need to buy him. Just twenty minutes.”Soren cocked hi
Chapter 154 (Terror)
James stirred in the rubble, the sharp sting of pain dragging him back to consciousness. Blood trickled down his face, pooling beneath him, and his entire body felt as though it had been shattered and pieced back together. His breaths came in shallow gasps, each one a struggle against the suffocating weight of debris and exhaustion.“Damn it,” he thought bitterly, his mind swimming in a haze of fragmented memories."Since I was young, I knew I was different. Special." James’s thoughts drifted to a distant past, a time when the world had been simpler. "I was born into wealth, into privilege. My family wanted for nothing, and from the moment I could walk, it was clear I wasn’t like the others."By six, James wasn’t just strong; he was superhuman. His punches could break walls, and his reflexes were unmatched. But with that strength came isolation."I terrified the other kids," he thought. "They couldn’t understand me. My silence, my ferocious gaze, the way I always got what I wanted—it
Chapter 153 (Stalling)
Soren descended gracefully, his crimson aura swirling around him like a living entity. His polished red gloves caught the dim light, and he dusted them off as if brushing away imaginary dirt. His gaze fixed on Elijah, a sneer tugging at his lips.“Insolent being,” he scoffed, his voice carrying an air of disdain. “How many times must I remind the world? I’ve stood at the peak of S rank for over a century. The strongest gods are just within my grasp. To think someone like you could challenge me… it’s laughable.”Elijah stood firm, his calm demeanor masking the storm within. “I agree with you,” he said, his tone steady. “Your power is extraordinary. But, you see, I’m not exactly ordinary myself.”Soren raised an eyebrow, intrigued despite himself.“I’ve been stuck at the peak of A rank for over two decades,” Elijah continued. “And just as the A rank is a bridge to the heroic ranks, S rank serves as the gateway to divinity. You stand at the edge of godhood, but even the gods have their l
Chapter 152 (Wasteland)
The city of Texheram was no more than a smoldering wasteland. What once stood as a bustling metropolis was now a graveyard of shattered buildings and burning rubble. The streets, once filled with life, were eerily silent except for the crackling of flames and the occasional cries for help. The sky was a murky gray, thick with ash, and the faint glow of fires illuminated the chaos below. It was in this hellscape that Soren stood, embodying the destruction he had wrought.Perched on the edge of a crumbling skyscraper, Soren exuded a terrifying aura of dominance. His crimson attire, immaculate despite the carnage, caught the flickering light of the fires, and his tousled hair danced with the breeze. In his grasp was a woman, her neck clutched tightly in his hand. She gasped for air, her struggles feeble against the overwhelming strength of her captor.“Isn’t the weather splendid today?” Soren said with a grin that stretched unnaturally wide. His voice was calm, almost cheerful, yet laced
