"No!" Aurelius, Eythor, Erjon, and everyone else shouted in despair as they witnessed the most terrifying scene of their lives.They knew that it wasn't just the ice that was falling. It included Monington's main hall, treasure pavilion, training hall, and ritual hall. And also the efforts of generations in Monington, as well as their dignity.How could anyone accept that?"Monington!""No… Give me back my Monington!"The disciples cried out in agony, unable to accept what was happening but could only watch helplessly.At that moment, Remus fell along with the ice. He was still on top of Kylian, seemingly out of control, throwing punch after punch!"Remus!" Beside him, Wilda and Glinda recovered from the shock and instinctively reached out to grab Remus, intending to take flight.Although they were no longer at their peak, they could still manage some spiritual energy to step into the air.However, they reached out to grab him, but it seemed like they couldn't touch Remus. The
At this very moment, it wasn't just Monington where wails filled the air. In fact, the entire world of cultivation was crying.True life, the mountains, caves, wilderness, deserts, Tanjen… Everywhere where cultivators exist, they all simultaneously look up, gazing at the dazzling meteor streaking across the sky.They had no idea who this meteor symbolized. But it was clear that they must be the strongest of the strong, someone at the pinnacle of human capability, beyond their imagination.The cultivators were paralyzed with fear, their eyes wide with shock! How could someone of such a caliber die? Fear sprouted within them.…At Ryunington, all the disciples in the square looked up, wide-eyed and astonished."This… The person who died is a Saint Master!" someone exclaimed.Everyone was shocked, as if they had been hit over the head. Throughout history, they had only ever heard of Saint Masters ascending to the Upper Realms and becoming immortal.This was the first time they had
"This is…""Is that a comet? Why is it heading toward us?""That's impossible!"The disciples were all astonished and began to discuss among themselves.Valerie frowned. She took an awkward step forward and turned to look at Richardo.Richardo remained calm and smiled slightly. "It's just a normal occurrence. This one happens to be a bit brighter than usual. Seeing a comet brings good luck, and it also signifies that my father will soon return victorious."As soon as he finished his sentence, the meteor crashed heavily onto the steps leading up the mountain, causing the entirety of Shenington to shake.The next second, the small, remaining fragment of the meteor emitted a tremendous amount of energy, radiating a shockwave from its core. In an instant, the wave swept across Shenington and struck Eternal Sentinel Mountain.The plants and trees swayed, and a gentle breeze blew. Although it didn't cause harm to any of their plants, disciples, or mythical beasts, deep inside, everyo
After the figure spoke, Valerie felt like her entire body was under a magical spell, completely suspended in mid-air and beyond her control.Initially, she was terrified as she looked at the 11 figures in front of her. But then, her terror turned into panic before finally transforming into utter joy.She cautiously asked, "If I may ask, are you the ones who have achieved immortality in Shenington?"The person who just spoke simply said, "Yes!"Upon receiving the response, Valerie immediately knelt on the ground, sobbing. "Honorable Immortals, Shenington's Saint Master has been killed by a treacherous individual and has perished."His son, Mr. Richardo, couldn't handle the shock and has gone mad. Right now, I'm the only one left in Shenington.""What?""How could this happen?""That's absurd!"These people immediately flew into a rage, finding it unbelievable.Even though they showed up in person because they sensed something, getting answers directly from Valerie was a differ
What were they saying? Making Valerie the Saint Master?"Sure!""That works!""This is the only way now!"Valerie may be very weak, but she was the only one left from Shenington.Seeing everyone agreeing, Avery said, "From now on, you are Shenington's Saint Master, responsible for promoting and expanding the sanctuary. As for your abilities…"He raised his hand and pointed at Valerie, and a subtle stream of Heaven Energy flowed into her.With just a surge of Heaven Energy, Valerie felt a long-lost sense of peace, and her heartbeat gradually slowed down.The remaining ten people also raised their hands, channeling 11 strands of Heaven Energy into Valerie.In just an instant, she had entered the end phase of the Great Realm of Enlightenment.Before Valerie could react, Avery continued, "Right now, your abilities are just like a castle in the air."From now on, you need to practice diligently. If you can fully absorb these eleven strands of Heaven Energy, it will allow you to r
In an instant, the atmosphere seemed to freeze, and Aurelius and the others felt like their hearts had stopped as they stared wide-eyed at the crimson lava.But more than ten seconds passed, and nothing happened. It felt like Adalyn was just talking to herself.Adalyn slightly furrowed her brows and said coldly, "If you still refuse to come out, then don't ever come out again."As soon as she finished speaking, spiritual energy suddenly spilled out of her. In just an instant, the temperature in Monington plummeted, and the recently melted snow on the hillside became frozen solid.Water vapor in the air began to condense and turn into snowflakes. These snowflakes covered the entirety of Monington but quickly flew toward Adalyn from all directions. Eventually, they gently fell into the volcano's crater and collided with the lava.Aurelius and the others trembled, not from the cold, but from fear.They could sense that the spiritual energy Adalyn was emitting at that moment was enou
"How dare you lie to us?" Avery shouted angrily. "Do you take us for three-year-olds? Even you couldn't possibly be a match for Kylian, let alone such an insignificant practitioner. From my perspective, it must have been you and that bastard joining forces to kill Kylian!"The others echoed, "Speak honestly and quickly. If you come clean on your own, we might show some leniency. But if we discover the truth through our investigation, there will be no mercy for you!"Another Immortal turned to Aurelius and the other disciples. "You people can tell us, too! As long as it's the truth, you can be given the position of Monington's Saint Master!"Of course, it was a lie. Sometimes, it was necessary to deceive someone in order to get the truth.Aurelius and his companions turned pale with fear. They couldn't even open their mouths to respond, and the disciples were so terrified by the Immortals' overwhelming presence that they couldn't move at all.Upon hearing their words, Adalyn's expr
Seeing everyone looking his way, Aurelius instinctively shouted, "If you don't believe me, ask Saint Master. She knows that Remus is still in the lava."Just now, she was trying to force that scoundrel to come out, but he stayed hidden and refused to appear!"Upon hearing these words, everyone turned their attention to Adalyn.Adalyn appeared to have a sudden realization and slowly shook her head. "That scoundrel is already dead. When I made my move just now, it wasn't aimed at him but because the beast within the lava has awoken…"Hearing this explanation, everyone at Monington was stunned. So, was it not aimed at Remus after all?The Immortals all showed expressions of understanding. This was expected, considering the lava beneath Monington was not ordinary lava but was suppressing a beast.It was similar to the haze at Shenington. Once entered, they would be posed a deadly challenge. There was no way to survive.After they nodded in agreement, they suddenly realized that the
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
