Halbert said, "However, I do believe that Ryunington would be a more suitable choice for him, hehe."His words were undoubtedly an invitation."As for suitability, Shenington is the most fitting choice!" Zaiden too stepped forth from the curse.He continued, "Monington's techniques tend to be more feminine and soft, while Ryunington's methods lean toward turbulence and aggression. Only Shenington's techniques strike a harmonious balance, being gentle and progressive. "They align perfectly with Windsor's temperament. With Shenington, he will advance twice as swiftly with half the effort."The thousands of onlookers buzzed with excitement. Even before the assessments had commenced, it was evident that the three major Sacred Lands were actively competing for Windsor. He had already secured his status as a highly sought-after candidate for these prestigious Sacred Lands.Windsor felt his blood boiling, and his body began to tremble."Heh!" Another cold laugh rang out.Garfield a
"Murdering and pill theft, ruthless actions, striking down with a single blow." The description was an exact match for the one who had killed Draig. So, he had resurfaced.Garfield inquired grimly, "What did this person look like, his height, his cultivation level?"Aether dared not conceal anything and described Remus' appearance from last night.Upon hearing this, all the cultivators present immediately thought of one person–Remus Calsberg, the Master of the Tanjen Organization.His cultivation was also at the late Golden Stage, capable of slaying Nascent Soul peak cultivators. Most importantly, his way of acting was ruthless, arguably the most ruthless in True Life.Remus sensed that the people around him were acting strangely and discreetly raised his guard. He had never expected to meet them here, nor did he anticipate that this conversation would happen in front of everyone.If there were a few more smart individuals like Wind Hunter present, he might be exposed.Xavier'
Remus feigned an innocent smile and said, "I've always had a sense of justice since I was a child, haha..."Everyone rolled their eyes at him, thinking that a single compliment had inflated his confidence to new heights.Ambrose and the others simmered with such rage that their lips quivered. If it hadn't been for the sudden glance Elena shot his way, they might have acted on their anger and killed him. Who was he to preach about justice?Unfortunately, since he had caught Elena's attention, they couldn't make a move.Xavier got up with a gloomy face. First, he became a stepping stone for Windsor, then he was slapped by Garfield. He was about to explode with rage. The most infuriating part was that even a lowly Golden Stage cultivator got a word of compliment from a representative of the sacred lands.But there was nothing he could do, so he sat down in frustration.Don was in the same boat, unable to attract any attention, so he could only wait for the assessment tomorrow and
Zaiden, Elena, Halbert, and Garfield levitated in mid-air, facing a throng of nearly 500 young cultivators.Their ranks ranged from the lower tiers of the Golden Stage to the Divine Separation Stage, with most being at the pinnacle of the Golden Stage. At the zenith stood Windsor, an exceptional talent who had ascended to the legendary Divine Separation Stage. A level inhabited by only one person.Behind them were thousands of cultivators who had come from all corners of the world. While they had surpassed the age to partake in the assessment, they were unwilling to miss out on the grand spectacle unfolding before them.Zaiden proclaimed the rules with authority in his voice, "The sanctuary assessment will be divided into three stages. "In the first stage, you must locate a specific object hidden within the Curse. Those who discover and successfully retrieve it must leave the Curse to advance. There are a total of ten target objects for this stage!"Upon hearing that, a wave of r
The crowd immediately dispersed and dashed toward the extensive mountains.After all, time did not wait for anyone, and opportunities were fleeting.Glinda also moved forward among the crowd but at a slower pace."Fellow cultivator, let's hurry as well," Windsor turned to Remus and said, "Don't worry, as long as we can find it, I will definitely give you one. I will do my best to help you pass the first stage."Remus was the only one who spoke up for him yesterday. Windsor had already recognized him as a friend and naturally wanted to help. Otherwise, it would be very difficult for him to pass with his late Golden Stage cultivation."There's no need to rush." Remus was somewhat moved by Windsor's kindness.Windsor was a kind-hearted individual who understood the importance of repaying kindness. He couldn't help but wonder how Windsor would respond when he eventually discovered that the person impersonating him was, in fact, himself.He looked around and said, "They haven't moved
Though nothing had been said since last night, yesterday's events were not to be brushed off as a thing of the past. The scores from their acts of kicking him when he was down needed to be settled.Remus halted, observing the unfolding situation in silence. He wanted to avoid being involved in the conflict, primarily because Xavier might potentially recognize his real identity of "Remus Cosby".As he had not yet gained access to the sacred lands, nor had he located Seraphine or Glinda, he aimed to avoid any unwarranted complications. However, the situation seemed increasingly complex as Windsor had already taken action.Seeing this, Xavier retracted his spirit energy, his brow furrowing, and his face darkening. "What are you trying to do? Do you really want to meddle in others' affairs and play saint?"No one dared to underestimate Windsor, even though he hadn't completely recovered from yesterday's intense battle.The Golden Stage peak cultivator saw a glimmer of hope, quickly go
"You should leave first!" Windsor pushed Remus aside.He conjured a long spear in his hand, his anger evident as he said, "I've been annoyed by you since last night and you dare to provoke me again today. I won't spare you!"The spear thrust forward, and a bright radiance of spear light flashed.Windsor squared off against Don, Xavier, and dozens of other Nascent Soul stage cultivators by himself.The clash of their spirit energies created a deafening roar, and the exploding spirit energy caused the surrounding trees to sway.Remus couldn't help but feel helpless. Windsor's determination was single-minded and straightforward.Remus struggled to comprehend how Windsor had advanced to the Divine Separation Stage with such stubbornness. While a strong sense of justice was commendable, expending his own spirit energy over an encounter with a stranger seemed entirely unnecessary to Remus.Agreeing to not snatching would have been a generous deal.However, given the current circumsta
Suddenly, a loud noise came from behind Remus.He turned to glance and witnessed Windsor descending from the sky, touching down with unwavering stability on the ground. The earth cracked beneath his feet as he held his long spear. Despite facing numerous opponents, he still unleashed a formidable energy.However, the sheer quantity of enemies was overpowering, although none of them had reached the Nascent Soul peak stage. Windsor was no longer at his peak condition either and could only defend himself, unable to counterattack."Don't hold back, let's finish him off together!" Xavier shouted.Everyone clenched their teeth and unleashed their spirit energy recklessly, merging it into a swirling mass above them. An array of weapons intertwined, creating a looming, ominous cloud overhead."Strike!" Don ordered immediately.Everyone attacked at once, sending a fierce onslaught toward Windsor.Windsor held his position, hoisting his spear to face the assault head-on. However, even if
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
