Before the cultivators could fully comprehend the situation, Remus made his move.He leaped into the air, landing atop the furnace in the center of the square that symbolized the Tanjen Organization.His expression turned icy as he thundered, "Immortal Sealing Curse, activate!"As his words fell, a resounding clang reverberated through the area.Suddenly, a colossal pillar of light emerged, radiating a dazzling golden brilliance with a diameter of 22 yards. Even if 100 people stood beneath this pillar, they would seem as insignificant as ants.But this was just the beginning.More golden pillars shot up in succession, four in each direction, totaling 12. They formed a cage, enclosing the Tanjen Organization within.The entire Tanjen Organization was bathed in a glorious golden radiance, resembling the celestial realm.The thousands of cultivators in the distance involuntarily took a few steps back and felt a numbing sensation throughout their bodies.After all their battles an
Master Jacobs panickedly implored Morven, "I've devoted my entire life to the Gresun Organization. If I perish, the Gresun Organization will crumble. Don't simply stand by and watch, Morven! Help me plead for mercy, quickly!”Reese and Morven had already withdrawn from the curse. Upon hearing the pleas, their expressions soured, but they couldn't ignore the fact that their respective organizations had nurtured them.They reluctantly turned their gaze toward Remus.Remus appeared indifferent as if he didn't hear them.He pressed his hand down, directing the spirit energy he had just regained at Master Wagner and Master Jacobs.The tiny trace of spirit energy became the decisive blow. It induced a slight deviation in their positions, and the golden whips mercilessly struck them.Lying in a pool of blood, Master Wagner screamed, her voice filled with fear as she pleaded, "No! Please, no!"With a single ferocious lash, she was shattered into fragments, her form disintegrating into a
Upon hearing Wind Hunter's words, shock rippled through the thousands of cultivators in attendance, including Henry and the Tanjen disciples.That person was the top-ranked cultivator in the True Life. He was supposed to engage in a life-and-death battle with Remus. Not only him, but everyone present had harbored similar intentions. And yet, he was not fighting but kneeling and begging for mercy.Remus was also caught off guard and inquired, "Aren't you here to kill me? Entering the sacred lands is the dream of every cultivator. Don't you desire it?"Wind Hunter shook his head. "In True Life, all cultivators believe that progress hinges on talent and resources. While those are crucial, the most vital attribute is intelligence. "I've lived for 130 years and consider myself an intelligent person. If I were to act selfishly against someone much stronger than me, like you, I'd definitely end up dead!"Remus smiled and replied, "You're right, I could have easily killed you in my prime
Remus stood in front of the rear courtyard, observing Reese and Morven as they approached. He spoke slowly, "I'm sorry."He rarely apologized to anyone, but he always honored his commitments to those who helped him. Today, his ruthless actions contradicted his principles.Reese and Morven were taken aback by his unexpected apology, and they didn't consider themselves worthy of it.Morven hastily waved his hands, saying, "No, Master Calsberg is not to blame. It's my responsibility for not being able to prevent the situation. It's on me."Reese also spoke with anxiety, "Why would Master Calsberg be at fault? It's our mistake for—"Remus interrupted with a raised hand, stating, "We're all aware of where the blame lies. It's my fault, I'll admit it. Now that both the Riversky Organization and Gresun Organization are without mastership, can you take charge of them? I'm more than willing to assist."That was also his way of expressing gratitude and repaying their kindness.The two q
Gemma was terrified, her eyes wide in disbelief, unable to believe Remus was serious.Remus withdrew his gaze and said, "If you're frightened, it might be best to return to the ordinary world, back to your family. We're not a suitable fit."After all, Gemma was Goetz's granddaughter, and Goetz had assisted him in the past.Gemma bit her lip and declared determinedly, "No, I'm not frightened. As long as I'm with you, I'm willing to face anything!""Alright then, let's go!" Remus didn't waste any time and immediately set off. His intention to visit the Herbal Pavilion wasn't mere talk. He was unwavering in his determination to deal with the Herbal Pavilion decisively and prevent any potential future issues. His earlier instructions had all been in preparation for the journey.Gemma's face drained of color and hesitated before reluctantly following him. She had decided to gamble on the possibility that Remus wouldn't have the audacity to confront the Herbal Pavilion directly.As t
The Deputy Master chuckled and remarked, "Even though Wind Hunter's abilities are just average, he holds the top rank among cultivators in True Life. However, I suspect that these brash cultivators vying for the entry spot won't act alone. I'm guessing that it must be the Violet Sanctum who secured it!"After saying this, he turned his gaze toward Lance.Lance smiled and analyzed, "Well, your points make sense. The Violet Sanctum indeed boasts the greatest overall strength, and Wind Hunter does hold the highest cultivation. However, let's not forget that a single entry spot can drive even the strongest to fight desperately. "In such a scenario, sheer strength may not necessarily be advantageous. It's a situation where both sides suffer, potentially allowing a third party to reap the benefits. If I'm not mistaken, an inconspicuous late Nascent Soul stage cultivator might have seized it!"Upon hearing this, Egbert and the other deputy master nodded in agreement, acknowledging that h
Lance firmly believed that Remus would use his impressive strength to coerce him into visiting the Tanjen Organization personally.Given the formidable abilities Remus had demonstrated, it seemed certain that he would become a prominent figure within the organization, proudly flaunting his status.However, the disciple was hesitant to reply, as it was too humiliating."Speak up!" Egbert burst out impatiently. "What exactly did Remus say? Tell us word by word!"The Deputy Master couldn't help but snort in disdain. "That arrogant fool, thinking he's something special just because he accomplished a small feat. He's probably parading around, flaunting his status as we speak!""He hasn't said a word!" The disciple finally broke his silence.He added cautiously, "In fact, according to the latest reports, Remus has fled and left the Tanjen Organization ..."Upon hearing this response, all three were once again taken aback.Egbert couldn't resist asking, "Are you sure? He fled?""Ho
After leaving the Tanjen Organization, Remus and Gemma journeyed through the mountains and jungles, primarily because the wilderness offered a richer and more pristine source of spirit energy, which Remus required for replenishment.As night fell, Remus sat in deep meditation with his eyes closed, fully aware of the impending hazardous journey to the Herbal Pavilion. He aimed to absorb as much spirit energy as possible in the short time he had.Gemma had kindled a campfire and sat opposite Remus, supporting her chin with her hands and gazing at him with wide eyes. Her face took on an unusual beauty, accentuated by the gentle play of light from the flickering flames."You've been staring at me the whole day! Turn your face away!" Remus said indifferently.Gemma's eyes sparkled with excitement. "That's so typical of you, knowing I'm watching you without even needing to open your eyes. But I won't stop! I enjoy looking at you just like this!"A wry smile tugged at Remus' lips as he r
Kaiser couldn't help but sigh when he saw them.This was his first time seeing them since Remus died. Judging by the state they were in, it seemed they hadn't finished mourning Remus.It makes sense. After all, he was their fiancé, as well as the greatest hero from ancient times to now. How could they easily move on from that?The ten women took their seats and turned to look at Kaiser.Gabriela said slowly, "Mr. President, you should consider dyeing your hair."At this point, his hair was completely white.Kaiser waved his hand and managed a smile. "In the past, I had to maintain Darsia's image, so I couldn't have any gray hair. Now that things are like this, there's no point in worrying about it. It's good to just let things be."Even with a head full of black hair, it could not change the impact caused by Remus' death, so there was no point in making a fuss about it.Kaiser paused and said, "I invited you all here today to discuss an important matter. Just this morning, the
The energy in the Underworld was currently in high demand, and the supply couldn't keep up. It was essential to reclaim the Pathic Energies to ensure the energy would continue to be released, and no one could stand in their way.Roman simply said, "I'm not asking what you would do if it was taken from you. I'm asking if there's a possibility it could be taken."The ghost kings couldn't help but look at him. If it were possible...Roman didn't give them much time to think and continued, "Let me put it another way. Even if Remus shows up, would anyone believe it was the Celestial Sovereign who saved him? Would the Celestial Sovereign admit that he was the one who rescued him?"Everyone, have you ever considered that the Celestial Sovereign has never publicly acknowledged that Remus carries his bloodline? If he suddenly denies it and claims that it was the Underworld that saved him, how should we respond?"The other fice sucked in a sharp breath.Paul was frustrated again. "Does he
Roman did not respond immediately and instead thought deeply about it with a serious expression.At this point, what happened to Remus no longer mattered. In fact, it might be better to say Roman would love to see Remus hurry off to fight the Upper Realms.But the issue was that people in the Upper Realms didn't know that Remus was still alive. What would they do if they saw him appear again? Would it affect Roman?It was like what the ghost kings initially thought—within the Three Realms, the only ones who could save Remus were Roman and Francis.Once Remus was exposed, Francis would naturally deny being the one who saved him, leaving Roman as the only one who could have done so. By then, he would become the target of everyone's criticism.So, before figuring out how to handle the aftermath, there was no way he could let Francis find out about this."Your Majesty?" Noticing Roman was hesitant to speak, the ghost kings couldn't help but urge him for a response.Roman took a deep
Remus didn't want to admit it, but he had to—here, he felt like he was immobile while the world around him was in constant motion.In other words, he had no control over what was happening and could only passively accept everything the world presented to him, without any right to refuse. The simplest metaphor was being forced to watch a movie while you were tied to a chair.Remus was feeling frantic again. It seemed he was truly trapped with no way out."Is Limbo really like this?" He felt powerless over the current situation. In his current state, he couldn't affect the Mortal Realm or the Underworld and was simply stuck here. If this wasn't Limbo, then what was?It was like how when a person died, it was not necessarily a complete disappearance. It could also be understood as being separated from friends and family, no longer able to meet, forever existing in different realms. Wasn't it the same case right now?Remus slowly descended into the forest, coming to a stop without any
Remus was shocked, staring blankly at the scene.Under normal circumstances, after reliving his life once, he should have just faded away. That was how it usually was for ordinary people. So, why hadn't he disappeared, and why were the scenes starting to repeat?As expected, after Remus snapped out of it, he heard voices coming from the mountaintop. It was once again the scene of Tyson holding a ruler, disciplining a sobbing Remus."Why... Why is this happening?" Remus muttered to himself, growing more and more shocked. "Is this what the so-called Limbo looks like, or did something go wrong?"For a moment, he didn't know whether to feel happy or worried. Naturally, he was happy because he still existed, but he was also worried because the current situation felt too unfamiliar.Remus remained calm and continued to look ahead. The scene shifted to the front of the prison, then to Kylie calling off their engagement, and then to various moments shared with the other women from his pas
"No!" Remus roared, feeling a bit panicked.According to human processes, after reliving one's memories, the spirits would depart the body as a farewell to the Mortal Realm, and the physical body would begin to decay and turn to dust.If that was the case, wouldn't he fade away into nothingness after revisiting all his memories as a specter?"No, no!" Remus started shouting, trying to stop it, because this was the final act of his specter. Once this moment passed, he would completely vanish into nothingness, and he was doing everything he could to prevent that.Unfortunately, the situation in front of him wouldn't change just because he willed it to. The result would be the same as from the start, continuing to unfold bit by bit."Candace Nightingale!" Remus shouted once again. Seeing Candace nearly being squashed by the Pathic Energies, he couldn't help but wish he could lend a hand in it. If she had been killed then, he wouldn't be filled with such regret now.The scene was sti
When Remus saw this, he suddenly started laughing.This scene was from when he first arrived at the prison. He was indeed nervous and worried outside the gate. After all, it was his first time coming down from the mountains and entering the outside world, especially since Tyson said this was the most dangerous place in the world.Because of that, he was extremely cautious when going in, afraid of getting beaten up. It was also here that he parted ways with Tyson, and he hadn't seen him since then.Remus looked at Tyson, wanting to take a closer look at him, but the scene changed once again.It was three years later, when Kylie came to break off their engagement. Adorned in luxurious designer brands, she arrogantly said, "We belong to different worlds. Give me the marriage contract!"If it weren't for the fact that she was a girl, Remus would have definitely given her a rough time. Why bother putting up an act?The scene shifted again. This time, he was at the Bowen family's luxur
Remus stared straight ahead for a moment, then began frantically looking around. All he saw was a dense forest surrounding him. There was no sign of Tyson anywhere.What terrified him even more was that when he looked down right after that, he discovered he had no body or spectral form.Remus quickly raised his hand, wanting to touch his arm, attempting to see if he was simply concealed. However, he unexpectedly couldn't feel his arm! It was as if he only had a pair of eyes to observe the world, and no one else could even see these eyes."How did this happen? What is this place?" Remus was completely panicked.Why did he see a scene from over 20 years ago? Did he travel back in time? Or was this scene simply playing itself back to him? Where exactly was he?The sound of a slap interrupted his train of thought.Remus sharply turned to look, and to his surprise, he could see the top of the mountain along the path.At the summit was a small thatched house, and in front of it sat a
Unfortunately, the problems kept coming one after another.Grant said, "That's a good idea, but how can Remus return to the Mortal Realm or even reach the Upper Realms? He's currently a specter and isn't able to go there!"The other four ghost kings froze. The favorable outcome made them overlook the necessary process. Remus couldn't reach the Upper Realms, which meant the fight between him and Francis couldn't happen.They all turned to look at Roman.Roman frowned deeply. There was actually a way to help Remus return to the Mortal Realm. Remus would have been able to think of it too, but he just couldn't see what was right under his nose.There was a term called "Soul Return". Remus could find a recently deceased body and enter it, allowing him to return to the Mortal Realm.But Roman's statement about not being able to help Remus return to the Mortal Realm wasn't a lie, because no resurrected body could ever match the strength of Remus' original form.Even if his specter poss
