Teresa, who had left early, had been secretly watching the battle. She was surprised that James had become so powerful and exceeded her expectations.However, James growing stronger was part of her plan. She had worked very hard to realize every step of it.Teresa hid her aura, and even James could not detect her. She left the Chaos Arena and appeared in an ancient place in one of the districts.She arrived outside a mountain gate and looked at the formation ahead of her. She approached and called out, “It’s Xezal. I’m here to see you, sir!”Her voice resounded throughout the area.In the deepest part of the spiritual mountain, a middle-aged man sitting in a lotus position heard her voice and opened his eyes.He had been sitting in the same position for countless years, and a layer of dust covered his body. With a thought, the dust on his body disappeared, and he immediately changed into a new robe.The man waved his hand, and Xezal was instantly teleported in front of him.Xez
“From what I know, a few Extraterrestrial Demons are being suppressed by the Chaos Tablet. After they are released, you can kill them. Then, you’ll become the cultivator with the highest prestige after Emperor Raiah and eventually the Endlos Lord.The middle-aged man replied calmly, “I’m not interested.”“I know you’re not interested in becoming the Endlos Lord. But don’t you want to prove you’re stronger than Emperor Raiah?”The middle-aged man looked at Xezal and asked calmly, “Little girl, did you come to me just to inform me that Emperor Raiah’s successor has appeared so that I can kill him?”Xezal said embarassedly, “To be honest, James harbors great hatred toward me. He killed my father and has ambitions to become the next Endlos Lord. Fortunately, I hid the Endlos Heart that Emperor Raiah had left behind. Otherwise, he would’ve already become the new Endlos Lord. Even if you continue staying in seclusion, he’ll come for your life to avoid you becoming a potential threat to h
Although Taran had lost to Emperor Raiah in the past, he was still exceptionally strong.During Emperor Raiah’s era, there were many powerhouses, including the Sword Demon, Rune Arts Grandmaster, the Emperor of Tribulation, the powerhouses guarding the Boundless Road, and those who died in the battle against the Extraterrestrial Demons.Even though there were many peerless powerhouses, they were not comparable to Taran. Emperor Raiah was the only cultivator capable of suppressing him back then. However, Emperor Raiah was only slightly above Taran and could not kill him.Taran was not interested in Emperor Raiah’s cultivation achievement and had seen through Teresa’s plan of using him to kill James, open the Chaos Tablet, and release the Extraterrestrial Demons.“You should leave,” Taran waved his hand and said, “I don’t want to interfere with these affairs. Life and death are up to fate. You shouldn’t insist on changing it. You'll become corrupted if you’re too persistent in wantin
Xezal’s voice echoed throughout the area. Then, a magical crystal manifested in her hands. At that moment, she was blessed by the Ten District’s Heavenly Path and looked incredibly mighty.A golden light shot over from the distance and formed into a staircase.Xezal ascended the stairs, slowly approaching the spiritual mountain.Soon, she arrived atop a spiritual mountain and saw an elderly man sitting on the cliff.The elderly man had a long beard and was wearing a gray robe. Xezal was unable to sense his aura, and he seemed nonexistent.Xezal looked at the elderly man curiously. She had never seen Taran and Mount Genesis’ Grand Patriarch before. In fact, she had only heard about them from her father and read about them in ancient books. “What’s the matter, young lady?” The elderly man opened his eyes and looked at Xezal.Xezal knelt on the ground and said, “I’m the current Endlos Lord. It’s an honor to meet you, sir.”The elderly man waved his hand, and a force lifted Xezal
Xezal aimed to lure out Mount Genesis’ Grand Patriarch. Naturally, she knew he was a peerless powerhouse capable of verifying many things with his Zen in a short moment. Therefore, her words were not complete lies.The Sovereign Rank was indeed a myth that existed. Within the ancient books that Emperor Raiah had left behind, he hinted there was a possibility of a higher authority above the Extraterrestrial Demon’s Great Commander and that he might be an existence that had surpassed the Chaos Rank. It was also true the Extraterrestrial Demon’s Second Commander was sealed under the Chaos Tablet. However, Emperor Raiah’s whereabouts were unknown. Xezal lied about him leaving the Endlos to enter the Sovereign Rank, as well as the Extraterrestrial Demon’s Second Commander possessing the method to enter the Sovereign Rank.Mount Genesis’ Grand Patriarch seemed to be wavering and was enticed after hearing about a method to enter the Sovereign Rank.“I’ll leave it to you to decide, sir. I
Right then, a spatial rift appeared.The middle-aged man marched forward and was about to enter the Chaos Battlefield through the spatial rift.Swoosh!Before he could enter, two elders showed up and blocked his way.The middle-aged man was Taran Zach, the famous powerhouse of Emperor Raiah’s era.“Fellow cultivator…”A guardian said, “This arena does not belong to you. You can’t go in. You also shouldn’t come here.”The two were guardians of the Boundless Tablet and the Chaos Tablet respectively. They used to be the subordinates of Emperor Raiah. They were powerful. However, they were weaker than Taran.“Are you trying to stop me?” Taran’s expression became heavy.“Taran, Emperor Raiah left behind this arena. The providences and fortunes inside are useless to you. Why do you want to enter the Chaos Battlefield?” The guardian of the Boundless Arena felt helpless.The guardian of the Chaos Arena said, “That’s right. Why?”“I’m not here for fortunes. I’m here for James,” respo
Several Grand Patriarchs of the ancient Orthodox sensed that Taran killed the guardians upon exiting the mountain.They knew Taran’s reputation. Taran was only weaker than Emperor Raiah. He did not even show up during the invasion of the Extraterrestrial Demons. However, here he was now.Based on many powerhouses’ opinions, Taran came out of the mountain because something attracted him.Somewhere in the Chaos Battlefield, James took out a few clues he obtained previously and looked at them.Nonetheless, the clues he obtained were not complete. From the clues, he could not find out the whereabouts of the Herstellen Art. To know the location of the Herstellen Art, he needed to find complete clues.Swoosh!At this moment, a shadow appeared silently.James and Henrik did not sense any fluctuations of aura. It was only when a middle-aged man appeared before them that they sensed his aura.“Who are you?”James and Henrik spoke at the same time. They could not help but step backward.
Taran was not humble.He was not arrogant, but he really did not take James seriously.“Haha. Taran.”At this moment, a laugh sounded from the void. Following the laugh, the void cracked, and an elder appeared in the area.The elder was the Grand Patriarch of Mount Taba.The elder was old and had a beard. His hair was grey.Although he was old, his aura was powerful.Glancing at the elder, Taran asked casually, “What’s wrong?”“Taran, since you’re out from the mountain, there must be something good in the Chaos Battlefield.” The Grand Patriarch of Mount Taba smiled.“You’re thinking too much.” Dully, Taran said, “I’m only here to challenge the disciple of Emperor Raiah.”Taran was speaking the truth.Nonetheless, the Grand Patriarch of Mount Taba did not believe him.At this time, another figure appeared in the distance.It was the Grand Patriarch of Mount Genesis.The Grand Patriarch of Mount Genesis was watching from a distance. He did not approach Taran and the others.
