On the way, Remus tried his best to stay calm and chatted cheerfully with Ruby. Unfortunately, Ruby still stubbornly wouldn't say anything.In the afternoon, they arrived at Monington. It wasn't a sacred land anymore, as a so-called sacred land was separated by formations or barriers to create a unique space. It would be completely isolated from the world, and no outsiders could enter.But right now, Monington had become a tourist spot that anyone in Darsia could visit and take photos without any restrictions.Remus looked at the tourists on the mountain peak by the lake, pondering. When he first came here, the place was lush and full of spiritual energy. But now, the spiritual energy had dissipated, and the area was covered in snow."Time truly flies." Remus gave a wry smile. "I'll go down myself. When I come back out, I'll call for you."Ruby didn't hesitate at all and darted out from under Remus, who was almost thrown off balance. He shook his head and quickly descended onto th
Just by looking at the size of Raxor's two eyes, it was easy to infer how enormous its body must be. The endless abyss below especially created a sense of pressure that weighed on the soul.But Remus, with a blank expression, continued staring at it. Perhaps he hadn't known how to handle Raxor before, but the moment he saw it, he felt an unexpected calmness in his heart."Aren't you afraid I'll kill you?" Raxor suddenly said. Its voice sounded different from before. Now, it was hoarse and deep, merging seamlessly with the air around it, resonating powerfully.Remus slowly said, "As I mentioned earlier, if you want my life, you can take it at any time. Since I dared to come here, I'm not afraid of you taking it. If you truly want to, you can make your move now."Again, these words were sincere. If he were afraid of dying, he wouldn't have come here in the first place!Hearing that, Raxor's red eyes glowed intensely. They were like the lava's endless radiance, illuminating even the
Seeing Remus rushing toward him, Raxor was initially taken aback. Then, a mocking gleam appeared in its eyes. Without any hesitation, it opened its enormous, red mouth.It could easily swallow two train cars, and its fangs were about 20 feet long.Remus rushed into its mouth, heading straight for the stomach. Contrary to what he had imagined, it wasn't pitch black inside but blood red.According to the records, lumidrakes were entirely red in color. Perhaps the red represented its cultivation.Throughout thousands of years, Raxor's cultivation has weakened. Its exterior colors had faded, leaving only the red interior."I'm repaying you with my life. From now on, we are even!" Remus spoke with a commanding presence. Then, he sat down, cross-legged.Raxor stiffened upon hearing this, as if it hadn't fully registered what Remus said. The red light in its eyes flickered, and its face alternated between ferocity and confusion, as if it suddenly lost its purpose.Indeed, Raxor was con
Remus sat on Ruby, meditating, as they headed toward Ryunington.After Raxor said "forceful dominance", Remus left. The reason was simple—those two words explained everything.Raxor genuinely felt gratitude toward Melody and had indeed saved and guided Remus before.It was not an exaggeration to say that if it weren't chained up, it could accompany Remus anywhere and everywhere. It could even provide Remus with shelter and protection for him from the elements.However, no matter how grateful or fond Raxor might be, it still wouldn't listen to Remus during critical moments. It might even use Remus as a shield.After all, this was the beast race's unique way of thinking. It was like raising a dog. If one couldn't make it see them as its master, no matter how well they usually get along, there was always a risk of being bitten.The same principle applied to Raxor. It was in their nature."We've arrived," Ruby suddenly spoke.Remus slowly opened his eyes. Below him, instead of the
But Remus was not just at the Great Realm of Enlightenment but was also a Martial Divinity warrior. He was even more powerful than a saint master.He suddenly turned, and the icicles stopped right in front of him. They were less than an inch away from piercing his heart yet couldn't get any closer than that.Remus waved, and all the icicles shattered in an instant, turning into countless ice crystals, falling slowly in the air. The crystals reflected colorful lights, creating a scene that was surprisingly beautiful yet somewhat melancholic.A woman in a white dress and with a light veil on her face charged forward. She held a sword emanating spiritual energy, her eyes full of determination."Wilda!" Remus' eyes widened in astonishment. He couldn't believe how easily everything fell into place, and his excitement was beyond words.The woman got closer and closer. Just as the sword was about to pierce him, he finally realized something was wrong—this wasn't Wilda.At the critical m
Elena sneered, not believing a word Remus said. "I once thought you were principled and an honorable man. But it turns out you're just a hypocrite. In that case, I'll expose you!"I found Grandmaster Sylvanus, Master Erjon, and everyone else here except for the saint master. When I looked carefully, all I saw were scattered body parts everywhere. Can you really say you didn't dismember Saint Master Adalyn?"Because Saint Master Adalyn killed Wilda, you subjected her to extreme torture. What more excuses could you possibly have?"She indeed searched this place over and over again, looking for Adalyn.In the end, all that was found among the remains was Adalyn's tattered clothing, and beyond that, there was little else discovered.Remus shook his head, thinking there might be another reason behind her words.He said, "It's true that I killed Saint Master Adalyn, but I didn't dismember her body. As for Wilda, she was alive until the end. Saint Master Adalyn's body disappeared becaus
Even though there was an old saying about the deceased being able to rest in peace by being buried, this place was not any worse. Leaving the bodies here was fine, and there was no need to take them away.Elena realized she couldn't get her revenge by killing Remus, so the only thing she could do now was give him a cold look."Of course, I'm taking them back to the final resting place of Monington's ancestors. When they were alive, you forced them to flee to the ends of the earth."Now that they have passed away, I want to bring them back to their roots. This is the only thing I can do for them!""Resting place?" Something came to his mind when Remus heard these words.Seeing her struggling alone to drag so many bodies using her spiritual energy, Remus quickly descended.As his spiritual energy was released, the bodies' clothes flew into the air and were torn into strips, weaving themselves into ropes. Afterward, he approached the bodies, tying them up one by one until they forme
The hillside was crowded with hundreds of graves, belonging to disciples of Monington's disciples who either failed at their tribulation, lost control of their powers, or met untimely deaths in accidents.There may have been more in the past, but over the years, they have all leveled out.Of course, none of this mattered.What stood out was a new grave at the very front of this burial ground, the most prominent spot. On it was an inscription that read, "Tomb of the Honored Teacher, Monington's Saint Master Adalyn Crawford.""Saint Master Adalyn!" When Elena saw this, she couldn't contain her emotions. She quickly rushed over, knelt in front of the grave, and wept uncontrollably.Remus listened to her crying as he trembled, not out of sympathy but because his guess back in Ryunington was correct. Wilda indeed brought Adalyn's body to this place.Unfortunately, he was too late! If he had known about Monington's final resting place earlier, he might have been able to locate Wilda!
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
