Chapter 1002
Author: Oldwell
The bottom of the Shadow Gate was a 16 feet square space.

The old monster sat cross-legged in the northwest, bound by four chains made of thick black iron. Each chain was as thick as a wrist and restrained all four of his limbs.

Adorned in a white robe, maybe due to the extensive passage of time, it had begun to yellow.

His hair reached the ground and was a disorderly and voluminous gray-white. His face was behind the hair, rendering his features hidden.

Remus had a cautious expression as he carefully inspected the old monster's cultivation, but he quickly discovered that he couldn't figure it out no matter what he did.

He spoke slowly, "Let's make a deal. You tell me the way out and I'll figure out a way to get you out. What do you think?"

The old monster spoke in a hushed tone, "Fine, come here and I'll tell you!"

Remus stared at him with continued caution. "This place isn't spacious and there is no one else around. Just speak like this, I can hear you from here!"

    Remus prepared to swallow the inner pill as well."It's useless! Even if you're at the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage, you can't escape from the Shadow Gate. Just wait for death, heh!" The old monster said slowly.Remus came to a sudden stop. Could it be that escaping was truly impossible, even at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage?If Remus' judgment was correct, his Training Stage could easily overpower the Foundation Stage, and he could even confront the early phases of the Golden Stage in a determined battle.In his peak, he could easily obliterate anyone at the pinnacle of the Golden Stage. As for the Nascent Soul Stage, he has not challenged anyone yet. But judging from the energy that emanated from Ambrose, it felt like he wouldn't be able to rival them.It was rumored that Ambrose was merely in the early phases of the Nascent Soul Stage. If even the peak of the Nascent Soul stage could not escape, then it was most likely true that he himself had no way to get out.The tho

    The old monster's finger drew closer and closer.Remus was somewhat ... anxious!At that moment, he genuinely felt a bit anxious. He was experiencing complete powerlessness for the first time in his life against an opponent in which he was defeated in a single move.Even in the face of a Nascent Soul Stage adversary, he was confident in a battle. But against the old monster, he was completely overpowered.His eyes were on the verge of being plucked out. If that happened, he certainly would never escape the Shadow Gate in his lifetime."Wait ..." Remus strained to make a sound as he looked at the finger that was too close.Before he could finish, the old monster's fingers had already touched his eyes.However, the old monster didn't exert any force but instead chuckled, "Are you anxious? Afraid? Relax, this is just the beginning. In the days to come, I will slowly torment you every day, not allowing you to die so easily. I finally have some amusement after being lonely for 20 yea

    The old monster held back his laughter and slowly lifted both hands as he choked, "I ... am your grandfather, your real grandfather. Rafael is my son! You are my grandson! I have a grandson now, haha.""Grandpa?" Remus stood still in disbelief.His expression turned to astonishment as he inquired, "Could it be that you are the former head of the Cosbys?"Rafael was the successor to the Cosbys while Rafael's father served as its former head.Remus recalled that back at the Cosbys' ancestral hall, there was indeed no mention of the name of the previous family head. According to what he was told, in order to uphold the family's regulations, the former head of the family personally ordered the execution of Rafael and then disappeared.The old monster raised his hand again and called out, "I have descendants now … My sweet grandson, come here and let Grandpa pat you, come quickly ..."Raising both hands, he wore a hopeful expression on his face. Remus remained still, and not only that

    The old monster began to explain to Remus.The world was controlled by two immensely powerful families who reigned supreme, dominating every aspect of industry.The Dragon Protector Clan controlled the East while the Rose Family resided in the West.To be more precise, the Dragon Protector Clan was not a single family but a combination of four ancient martial families — the Walters, the Cosbys, the Cunninghams, and the Schneiders.The clan's headquarters was abroad. Their mission was to preserve ancient martial arts, contend with the heavens and the land, and uphold the grand path of humanity.The old monster sighed and said, "Heaven, Earth, and Humanity were originally parallel realms. 3,000 years ago, the last Monarch of Mortals fell. Ever since then, there has been no more successor in the mortal realm. Humans could only exist beneath the heavens and earth."Over the past 3,000 years, people have forgotten the once glorious history of the human race. They think that heaven and

    Meanwhile, at the Imperial Villa."Glinda has been back for two days now and there's still no update from Remus." Kylie sat on the couch, her eyes slightly red as tears swirled in her eye sockets.It wasn't just her who was anxious to the point of tears. Jean and Miranda felt the same way.When Remus left, he said he was going to True Life to rescue Glinda. Even if Glinda wasn't saved by him, he should still be in True Life. What should he do if he encountered danger?Gabriela said with resilience, "Don't worry. He was personally appointed by the President as the Eternal Pillar of Darsia, the Thunderous God of War. The people of True Life wouldn't dare to harm him. I think we should concentrate on finding Seraphine more. We need to find her before Remus returns!"Bringing up Seraphine caused the eyes of the women to turn even redder. Remus had martial arts skills but Seraphine appeared to be an ordinary and weak woman. What would she do if she encountered danger? How would they ex

    The woman had a mature appearance and was dressed modestly yet it couldn't hide her graceful demeanor. Particularly noteworthy was her perfect figure, devoid of any hint of extra flesh."What … " A wave of astonishment swept through the women as they laid eyes on the woman standing by the door.They all felt a sense of unease welling up within them. Who was this unfamiliar woman and why was she here?Glinda was startled as well. She hadn't anticipated anyone showing up here and was left wide-eyed and speechless.The woman outside the door mirrored their expressions. She had come here in response to Remus' request and was prepared for the possibility of someone being in the villa. However, she never imagined that before she could even knock, the door would swing open, accompanied by so many scrutinizing gazes.The woman's eyes suddenly welled up with tears as she looked at Glinda and exclaimed, "Glinda ..."However, she could only utter a single word before she was interrupted."

    "I'm heading back right now!" Gabriela said with a rush.Moments after ending the call, Miranda's phone rang.She responded to the phone, ”Alright, I'm heading back right away!“"I'll go with you!""Count me in!"Both Jean and Kylie stood up.The buzz surrounding the challenge to Darsia's martial arts by the 17 nations in recent days had been widespread and known to all. Everyone assumed it would officially kick off the next day but the martial artists from the 17 nations were so brazen. Turns out it was going to start tonight right after midnight.The four women stepped out together and spotted Selina standing at the door.Jean snapped, "You can wait for him here. And you two can have a good time alone, without anyone bothering!'"Selina blushed deeply as she said, "You've misunderstood, Remus and I …"Her words halted, lost as the four women walked away.They brushed off explanations as pointless. Even if she wasn't Remus' now, she'd be in due time.Selina watched them le

    Meanwhile, in the Shadow Gate.Remus gathered his strength and struck at the black iron chains that were imprisoning the old monster. His fierce punch unexpectedly caused a slight deformation in the iron chains.The chain was forged from black iron and not even a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator could deform it. But Remus made a dent by merely throwing a punch, devoid of any divine energy."What ..." The old monster's hand trembled as he touched the iron chain, and his lips quivered.He exclaimed in disbelief, "You've only been learning the Imperial Form for less than three days, yet you've managed to deform the black iron? How .. could this be?"The Imperial Form was a form of ancient martial arts and also a secret technique of the Cosbys, exclusively taught to the main lineage or their direct heirs.Remus had sweat glistening on his forehead. He hadn't anticipated that a stroke of luck would arise from misfortune. Not only did he encounter his renowned grandfather, but also inheri

    At that moment, Darsia was located in the eye of the storm.All the people had gone into hiding, while all members of the military department were ready. Every warrior and cultivator was poised for action, and all the beats were glaring fiercely.Kaiser stood at the front, with Remus' partners behind him, followed by all the people of Darsia. They were all facing east, waiting for Amelicon's forces to arrive.Anove them, Francis, Roman, the four ghost kings, and even Candace had all gathered there, their expressions serious as they solemnly looked toward the east.Everyone remained silent and still, just waiting.After about four hours, on the sea surface directly east of Darsia, waves finally appeared. Soon after, a massive and overwhelming force from Amelicon arrived.In reality, when considering the number of people and equipment, Darsia's Mortal Realm was comparable to Amelicon's. In fact, with Darsia having the home advantage, its equipment was more complete, and its firepow

    Time kept passing by.The four ghost kings were stationed at different corners of Darsia. Meanwhile, Roman continued to recover his energy, and Francis gazed into the distance, still and deep in thought.At the very top, Rafael and Melody were still unconscious in the formations.As for the Mortal Realm, the people were already aware of what was going to happen. Given the significance of the event, it was important to inform them in advance so they could be prepared.Unlike in the past, there was no panic. Instead, everything was very orderly, and there was no need for excessive organization. Everyone knew what they needed to do.This was what Francis referred to as having depth and experience. Darsia had a history spanning millennia and had been through a variety of events.Although none of them were as critical as the potential threat of national destruction they're currently facing, they'd gone through similar situations dozens of times and had learned lessons from history.N

    Both Roman and Francis remained silent, acting as if the other didn't exist.Neither of them knew how much time had passed, but eventually, they both looked at each other simultaneously. Francis' gaze was calm. On the other hand, Roman's gaze initially held a hint of anger but then shifted to a sense of calmness.The reason why the two were looking at each other was straightforward. Roman was still suspicious of Francis, and Francis knew that.After about half an hour, Roman finally couldn't hold back and said, "I want to hear the truth!"Francis retorted, "Is it really necessary?""It's absolutely necessary. The survival of Darsia's three realms is at stake, and I must get to the bottom of this.""All you need to know is that I've returned to defend Darsia against external threats, and I won't be taking any action against you in the short term."Roman chuckled. "Even if you attacked me, what difference does it make? At worst, I face death, but this is an era of great upheaval w

    In the end, this issue was still raised.Kaiser's lips twitched slightly. He had been wondering the same thing but didn't have the chance to ask.Discomfort also appeared on the ghost kings' faces. They had naturally thought about the matter, too, but due to their fear of Francis, they didn't know how to bring it up. Moreover, considering Francis' demeanor, it seemed fine not to ask.But now that Roman had voiced that question, all they could do was wait for Francis' response.Francis asked casually, "Why do YOU think Amez helped me and let me return?"Roman remained unfazed. "I'm not sure. That's why I need you to answer!"Francis looked at him intently and replied, "Alright, I suppose it's not just you who wants to know. The others are probably curious, too."In that case, I'll tell you. The reason I gave Amez is straightforward—I wanted to return for revenge. Amez believed that my revenge against you all would be highly effective, which was why he decided to help me recover."

    Based on the analysis, this was indeed the case. Remus had been gone for so long, and the fact that Tyson, as his mentor, hadn't shown up yet was quite unusual. So, what was he planning?Just as everyone was speculating, Francis suddenly spoke up. "Amez is coming with Amelicon's deities."Everyone suddenly turned to look at him, their eyes widening uncontrollably. Did he just say Amez was about to arrive?Even though they already knew they would be coming, hearing it directly from Francis was still quite shocking.Francis ignored their expressions and continued, "So, no matter what the Monarch's mentor is plotting, it no longer matters. The most important thing right now is figuring out how to get through the present situation."Everyone else's expression became serious. Francis' words made sense.Bringing up Tyson was merely a distraction from their argument about the Three Realms' ruler. While it was important to investigate what Tyson was planning, it was less significant comp

    "It can only be me!" Francis immediately added.As soon as these words were spoken, everyone instinctively looked at Roman. Since none of them were eligible to compete, Francis' comments were directed solely at him. How would he respond?Roman's expression changed, and he was unsure of how to respond. If he acknowledged Francis, wouldn't that mean admitting defeat, rendering all his previous efforts futile? Additionally, it was embarrassing.But if he refused to acknowledge Francis, his current capabilities just didn't allow it. There was no way for him to win against Francis at the moment. What should he do?After a moment of reflection, he replied, "With external threats looming, it's too early to consider this issue. We don't even know if we can withstand the current challenge. If we manage to get through it, there's still time to think about that later."He could only delay the matter now.Francis said calmly, "It's precisely because we are facing external threats that there

    Finally, Roman crashed against the giant blade, and a sudden loud boom rang out.Then, something completely unexpected happened—the massive blade suddenly shattered like glass. Countless fragments scattered through the air like shooting stars, flying a short distance away before disappearing completely.As for Roman, he remained in the same spot where the massive blade used to be, completely unharmed.Roman burst into an exaggerated and unprecedented laugh, echoing continuously through the space."Why did this happen?""Could it be that the emperor has had a secret plan all along?""But the emperor wasn't protected by any energy. He shouldn't have been able to shatter the giant blade.""Why..."The four ghost kings were utterly shocked and couldn't believe their eyes. They knew very well just how terrifying the blade was.Perhaps in their prime, they might have been able to withstand it, but in their current state, they couldn't even be sure they could dodge it. Yet, Roman did

    Even at this point, Roman still couldn't believe Francis would truly act against him.His reasoning was still the same—he didn't believe Francis would just stand by and watch as Darsia was destroyed and its people perish. He didn't believe Francis would simply watch this land be devastated and taken over by outsiders!"Of course!" Francis responded succinctly, and as soon as these words were spoken, the blade started dropping down on Roman.The ghost kings' expressions drastically changed, filled with terror in an instant, forgetting to even fight back.On the other hand, Roman knew he had to defend himself but continued to persevere, not believing that Francis would go to such extremes.But at that moment, Kaiser shouted from below, "Wait!"Kaiser had witnessed the entire scene and was already completely stunned by the suddenness of everything. He was momentarily in a daze, but when he saw the giant blade descending, he realized that if he didn't speak up now, it would be too la

    Hearing these straightforward words, Roman, the four ghost kings, and Kaiser were all stunned. They couldn't help but widen their eyes in shock. Why would Amez help him recover? The implications behind this fact were hugely problematic."Why… Why did he help you recover?" Roman still asked.The ghost kings were trembling more and more noticeably. Kaiser also began to shake uncontrollably because he already had a bad feeling about the situation.Francis openly stated, "Because I promised to be his inside contact for attacking Darsia, making it easier for him to take over this land. Do you think there's any other reason he would help me?"Francis burst into laughter, one that was openly and extremely mocking, deeply disdainful.The four ghost kings stepped back simultaneously upon hearing these words, driven by a mix of fear, but also because it was an uncontrollable reaction.To be honest, just facing Francis alone was already beyond their capabilities. Even more daunting was the
