The reason Remus was being so straightforward was that, after assessing her abilities, it was clear that his strength was far greater than hers. Even in this illusion, he was confident that he could defeat her with a single blow."You really are mentally impaired." The lady shook her head. "This is the Upper Realms. How did you manage to become immortal without knowing where this place is?"Let's not waste any more time or we'll miss the event. I'll take you there."She unexpectedly grabbed Remus' arm as she spoke, pulling him along as she started running forward.When Remus was grabbed by her, his heart skipped a beat, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. It wasn't because he was nervous from being touched by a woman, but because he could distinctly feel her hand's warmth.This warmth signified that the lady in front of him was real and not an illusion! If that was the case, what she said was very likely true.This was the Upper Realms. Was that door the entryway to the
"They're here!""The person from the Mountains has come out!""Look, this time, it's a fairy!"Excited voices erupted all around.Amelia also became nervous as she looked ahead with longing."A fairy's ethereal quality is truly enchanting. This time, I must enter the Mountains and become someone like her!"Remus was feeling overwhelmed. He had come here to find the beast and stop the haze from spreading further and threatening Darsia.Unexpectedly, he found himself caught up in what felt like an entirely different world. He had no choice but to stay the course and adapt as things unfolded.Following everyone's gaze, a figure emerged from the waterfall ahead. She was dressed in a light blue, flowing gown and wore a veil over her face. Although her features were not visible, she exuded an ethereal and enchanting presence.She stood in the middle of the waterfall, high above, looking down at everyone.Remus gazed at the woman's figure and wondered why she felt so familiar. He thou
Plains Dweller? Celestial Creator? Everlasting?Remus picked up on the few keywords and connected the dots in his mind.He first looked back and saw a vast, open expanse behind him, which was presumably what Amelia referred to as the Plains. Everyone there was a Plains Dweller.Of course, as for the Mountains Amelia was talking about, they would be located beyond the mountain behind the fairy.As for the Celestial Creator…Remus tentatively asked, "Celestial Creator?"Amelia looked at Remus as if he were an idiot, then shook her head with a sigh and said seriously, "The Celestial Creator is the creator of everything."The mountains, rivers, grass, trees, and everything we see before us were all created by the Celestial Creator. We, too, were created by the Celestial Creator!"Remus was in disbelief. This so-called Celestial Creator really knew how to pull the wool over people's eyes. Mountains and rivers had always existed and were created by no one.Even the Order of Nine Mys
As Remus pondered, Amelia was already grasping the veins with both hands, climbing upward to the cave entrance.Perhaps all her spiritual energy was used to create vines, so she was just using her hands to climb upwards bit by bit, making her movements appear somewhat awkward.Despite being clumsy and slow, Amelia steadily moved upward, little by little, as the flowing water washed over her. Before long, she had already covered two-thirds of the distance to the cave.Meanwhile, Remus was still contemplating. Judging by her performance, securing entry into the cave was already a certainty.Someone called the Celestial Creator existed in this realm, so to stop the haze, Remus thought to himself that he needed to talk to this creator. He should enter the cave, too.He planned to wait until Amelia entered the cave before facing the challenge, too. It was only within the Mountains that he could find this so-called Celestial Creator.A sudden voice came from beside Remus. "Shut up!"H
"Stop talking and get ready!"Crystal couldn't wait any longer as her spiritual energy surged out. Although she didn't know any cultivation techniques, she knew manifestation techniques. A whip appeared in her hand, and Crustal lashed out fiercely at the green vines without hesitation.Seeing this, Amelia quickly raised her hand, and just like before, vines appeared out of thin air and entangled the long whip.Even though she had exhausted her spiritual energy, martial arts techniques and manifestation techniques were on completely different levels.Manifestation techniques could only be at the level of the user's stage. Meanwhile, martial arts techniques allow the user to deliver their most powerful strike using the least amount of spiritual energy.Beyond that, the difference in strength and quality between them was worlds apart.With just a flick of Amelia's hand, the vines quickly constricted and crushed the whip, which vanished completely without a trace.The bystanders sta
Everyone simultaneously looked in Remus' direction. Their expressions transitioned first from surprise, then to shock, and finally to anger."They're shameless!""They dare to use Amelia's companion to threaten her!""Was he the one who just arrived at the Immortal Realm?"The air was filled with a chorus of curses, just like before, with everyone keeping their voices low. Despite the insults, it was clear to anyone listening that the people were scared and didn't dare to criticize loudly.Remus wasn't expecting them to do anything. Instead, he was looking at the fairy, who was standing in the air.However, contrary to what he was expecting, the fairy just glanced at him and looked back down at the surface of the lake, almost as if she hadn't heard him at all."Huh?" Remus was taken aback by the fact that she didn't seem to recognize him. Could he have mistaken her for someone else?Crystal sneered and sarcastically said, "So you're just a fool who's recently arrived at the Imm
The man was astonished that Remus had the nerve to talk back, and with an almost dismissive tone. He became furious and snapped, "What did you just say, kid?"Remus didn't want to argue with him and slapped the man away, sending him flying. "Since you can't understand words, I'll communicate with you through fists. Do you get it now?"Everyone was taken aback. No one expected Remus to dare to attack, much less for him to be so powerful.This clan was at the Golden Stage, which was considered the strongest in the entire Plains! Yet, one of their members lost to him in a single move."How dare you attack my fellow clan member?"One of the clan members standing nearby finally regained his composure, swiftly releasing his spiritual energy without any concern for the possibility of harming those around him. The spiritual energy surged toward Remus.However, just as he lashed out, Remus also sent him flying with a slap."You!"Another slap rang out."You dare…"And yet another slap
Everyone was shocked and didn't know what to say.Crystal was the one who said Amelia could only surrender once she was out of the lake, but Remus was now throwing those words back at Crystal after only a few minutes.He was simply humiliating her, and nobody could do anything about it because of his strength.In an instant, everyone turned their gaze toward Remus. Instead of the previous disdain and anger, there was only fear and apprehension in their eyes."What… What exactly do you want?" Crystal broke down and yelled.She came here to humiliate Amelia and to trample her underfoot, using Remus to threaten her. Who would have thought that Remus was so formidable? Now, the one being embarrassed was herself!"Nothing, really. I was just bored." Remus slapped Harold a few more times and looked at Amelia, saying, "You keep going. I'll follow shortly."He spoke about conquering the challenge so casually, but everyone there believed him.Amelia, snapping out of a daze, nodded absen
Time flew by quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was already evening.Before this, Darsia's citizens were unaware of the immortals descending to their realm. However, by nightfall, it became impossible to hide this fact, as 15 bright stars appeared in the sky.Darsia's citizens had all witnessed the past battle between Remus and the Upper Realms, so the current scene felt both familiar and not to them.The familiarity came from the unusual phenomena in the sky that night. The unfamiliarity came from the fact that there were no other unusual signs apart from these 15 stars, making it much smaller in scale compared to that night.Among these 15 stars, 13 of them were white and evenly distributed across various locations in Darsia. Another was gold, hovering directly above Centuria, while the last one was only faintly visible.The gold star was a Golden Immortal leading the 13 white stars, who were Celestial Immortals. And the last one was a heavenly official.The Golden Immortal an
If they didn't surrender, the people of Darsia would face casualties in the tens of millions.Of course, the most important thing was that no matter how hard the Mortal Realm tried or resisted, it could not even land a finger on the Upper Realms. If they were to fight, the outcome wouldn't just be one-sided—they would lose by a landslide.None of them could bring themselves to say it, but they knew the responsibility for doing this unpleasant task fell on them.The sound of sobbing rang out in the conference room again.Kaiser glanced around at the women, fully aware that no one felt more aggrieved than they did. However, there was nothing he could do. Despite being the president, he was powerless.Still, he had to ask, "Do any of you disagree?"None of them responded. They had countless things to say, but they all boiled down to the fact that they were simply not strong enough. If there were even the slightest chance of victory, they would resist without hesitation.Unfortunate
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
