"I can use the small domain I created to experiment!"Remus entered the domain he created and started absorbing the spiritual energy within. As he didn't use much energy to create it, it didn't take long for him to absorb it all back. All it took were a few breaths.He discovered that the spiritual energy, which was initially used to blast open this space, was completely absorbed back without any waste, yet the space remained.He looked around, confused, feeling that something was off. The energy used to sustain this space was supposed to be gone, so why was it still there? Could Remus' theory be wrong?Since he couldn't see anything from the inside, he planned to go back outside and observe. But as soon as he turned around, the entrance was gone.It was just complete darkness ahead, almost identical to the domain created by chaos. The walls were incredibly smooth, without the slightest flaw.Remus suddenly felt a bit panicked. He hadn't yet left the Chaos' domain. If he got trap
In the past few days, Gemma had been thinking of ways to save Chaos, too, but the gap in strength between them and the Celestial Immortals was immense.Anyone could see that while these Celestial Immortals were slightly weaker than Remus, the difference wasn't significant. And the presence of two of them seemed even more powerful than Remus'!Never mind Gemma going alone, even all of the top ten divine retreats' people working together wouldn't be able to win against one of the Celestial Immortals.Hearing Gemma's words, Gareth's face turned bright red. He knew he couldn't compete with those Celestial Immortals. But after watching Chaos being trapped for over 20 days, he couldn't take it any longer and felt he had to do something.He gritted out, "Even though we can't defeat them, we… we can ask for help. You are appointed as a fairy by Lord Chaos, and I am appointed as its envoy. If we don't go to save Lord Chaos, then who else will go?""There's someone," Gemma said with a blank
Gareth also turned to look and was stunned by the scene he saw.Where the statue once stood was Remus, walking down from the podium. How did he end up here? Was he previously in the statue? When did he get in there?Remus was also surprised when he saw his surroundings as the domain collapsed. It was completely different from the scene inside the domain.Inside, it felt like being in another dimension, seemingly close to Chaos. But here, he was much further from Chaos, so far that it was beyond what the naked eye could see.But Remus soon realized the reason he could see Chaos clearly before was because of the statue.Since people had been giving their devotion to this statue for a long time, it naturally gave Chaos some power. And, since Chaos was in control of this world, it could see everything here.Another point was that even if a separate domain was created and kept hidden, Kurt would still be able to detect it as he could sense people's presence.But, within the statue, K
Meanwhile, in the far eastern side of the Immortal Realm, two Celestial Immortals, dressed in sky-blue robes with white hair and beards, were playing a game of chess on the ground.Given that the concentration of spiritual energy here didn't compare to that of the Upper Realms, waiting was rather tedious, and they needed something to pass the time.The Celestial Immortal on the left, Edward Benton, moved one of the black pieces and sighed. "We'll be changing shifts in just two days, and we'll need to return to the Upper Realms."It will take another 100 days before we can come back here. I wonder who will end up with the prize in the meantime."The so-called prize referred to capturing Remus. Once they managed to catch Remus, someone who had been unsettling the Upper Realms, they were certain to be rewarded by the Celestial Sovereign. That would greatly benefit their future.The Celestial Immortal on the right, Clifford Rice, moved a white piece. Evidently, he understood Edward's
Remus walked in a clockwise direction toward the westernmost part of this world. Initially, he intended to rescue Chaos directly, but upon realizing that he might not be a match for all ten Celestial Immortals at once, he gave up on that idea.This realm, as a domain, was much more secure than a barrier. If a Celestial Immortal was killed, their death essence would also be trapped here. Since there was time, why not eliminate them one by one? This way, it was a bit safer!Soon, he arrived at the Immortal Realm's westernmost edge.Even from a great distance, he could see a Celestial Immortal dressed in a white robe, sitting with eyes closed in meditation. Compared to the previous two, he seemed much calmer. In such an environment, he was still focused on cultivating.Remus pondered for a moment. Then, he wiped his face, transforming his face into Clifford's. His spiritual energy flowed out once more, conjuring up a chessboard. With it, he slowly walked closer.When he was about a t
Three down, seven to go.Soon, Remus stumbled upon another Celestial Immortal, who was meditating like Payton. The only difference was that the person guarding this place was a female cultivator.She was wearing a light purple chiffon long dress. Her appearance suggested she was around 40 or 50 years old, but this only represented the age she attained immortality. In terms of how long she had actually lived, it might have been several centuries.Her appearance wasn't particularly stunning, and she even seemed a bit aloof. However, as a Celestial Immortal, she possessed a unique Heavenly Energy that added an extra layer of gracefulness to her presence.Remus wondered if he should ambush her for a moment before quickly dismissing the idea.The main difference between a Celestial Immortal and a Land Immortal was in the range over which they could exert their full power. However, there was one undeniable truth—the Heaven Energy in the Upper Realms is much richer.This meant that as l
Remus held out the flowers and said bitterly, "Cultivating is just so exhausting. If I continue relying solely on my efforts, I fear I might never become a true immortal in this lifetime."Please help me. I'm willing to do anything for you, and you can do whatever you want to me!"Martha suddenly felt her heart race as a thought crossed her mind. Keeping someone around to satisfy her desires seemed like an option.After all, she could control him as she wished, and when she no longer wanted to use him, she could just end it at any time. Who would ever know? The thought was exhilarating.She looked around cautiously. Seeing that no one else was around, she said seriously, "Since that's what you want, from this day forward, you belong to me. Whatever I ask you to do, you must not resist in any way. Do you understand?""Okay!" Remus nodded again.Martha was overjoyed. Just like in the Upper Realms, the Mortal Realm was also dominated by men, so the sudden ability to control a man br
Remus' heart skipped a beat. Had he been found out?If this immortal didn't constantly have his guard up, it would have been hard for him to detect Remus given the distance.So, Remus deduced that this immortal was likely not weaker than him. Perhaps he was one of those individuals who were granted immortality after the Battle of the Three Realms!What should Remus do?He had confidence if it was a direct confrontation. Although their abilities were almost equal, this immortal hadn't been in a fight for hundreds of years. Meanwhile, Remus had spent years flirting with life and death, so he was confident he could win.But if their fight was too loud, it would definitely attract the other immortals. Currently, there were five others besides him, and Remus was still not confident he could win."Come out!" the immortal, Harrison Gill, suddenly shouted again.Remus didn't hesitate at all—he turned and ran. Right now, there were many things he needed to do and many people he needed to
Suddenly, Wayne's smile vanished. "The Mortal Realm deserves no more chances! Ever since Remus decided to stand against the Upper Realms and you all started to give him your devotion, you don't get a second chance!"That treacherous dog dared to aspire to be a Monarch of Mortals and oppose the Upper Realms. Such arrogance! As his accomplices, you all deserve to be punished and shouldn't expect to retain any power."Starting today, all conditions set by the Upper Realms must be met. Otherwise, the Mortal Realm will be thrown into chaos! People will struggle to survive, famine will spread, and the sun and moon will lose their light! Just do as we tell you to!"Everyone was stunned. Then, the people below all shouted in unison, "You're being too shameless!"Their voices rose higher and higher, shaking the earth.Their respect for Kaiser was because he was the president, but their devotion to Remus was complete and unwavering. Insulting Remus was seen as an attack on their beliefs and
"You're shameless!" Ana and Eva snapped, both furious. At that moment, it seemed like they finally understood the purpose of the Dragon Protector Clan's existence. Being powerless to fight back felt incredibly frustrating and suffocating."He's going too far!" Grant also couldn't help but curse when he saw the scene.After all, Kaiser was the president and represented Darsia's 1.4 billion citizens. How could he possibly be slapped repeatedly? Wayne was straight-up an insignificant being who was behaving irrationally now that he had newfound power!Paul sighed, feeling in his heart that it was really unfair. But what else could the Mortal Realm do but endure the mistreatment?Kaiser felt a burning sensation on his face. The physical pain wasn't a big concern for him as he had prepared himself for the worst, even death. But it wasn't just him who was affected by the slap. This slap was a humiliation to all of Darsia's citizens all at once.However, Kaiser had no means of fighting ba
When Kaiser heard this, he involuntarily trembled, not out of fear but because he was infuriated. It was clear from Wayne's tone that there was a strong sense of disdain, even outright contempt!The ten women also looked angry. The 1.4 billion citizens were silently clenching their fists. The previous grievances hadn't been avenged, and now they were showing off their power again. Did Wayne think he could treat the Mortal Realm however he wanted?Though Kaiser was upset, he couldn't express it. As the president, any impulsive decision would have to be borne by all the citizens, so it was crucial to proceed with caution.He replied, "Mr. Morrow, you should know that forcing something doesn't yield good results. If you try to force the outcome that the Upper Realms desire, it may backfire. Instead, consider easing up a bit, and you might achieve a different, perhaps better, outcome."If they couldn't fight back, they could only try to reach a compromise.However, what no one expecte
"The emperor attacked from the outside, while Candace's attack came from within!"Remus paused once again. This time, he stayed silent for about 10 minutes before looking up at the sky with excitement and exclaiming, "I understand now!"The true sequence of events was like this: Candace did intend to kill me, and I was indeed on the verge of disappearing, but the Pathic Energies' protection prevented me from vanishing.""The truth is exactly what I initially thought. If I compare it to humans, my specter has been severed from my body but hasn't left it. It's more like my specter has been forcibly sealed within my body! That's it!"Although the conclusion reached was the same as initially, the evidence used to support it was completely different. It could be said that he had guessed correctly initially, but now it was confirmed as true!"If in the Mortal Realm, one can be revived if their specter merges with their body. So, right now, I should be able to wake up once I merge with m
All along, Remus had been too focused on himself in these scenes, thinking they were memories.But if that were the case, the moments like Tyson carrying him up the mountain or being disciplined shouldn't have appeared at all, since he was too young to remember them. This resulted in a disjointed feeling between the first two sections and the ones that followed.But when he removed himself from the equation and looked at everything from a third-person perspective, he was surprised by a fact.The scenes he was seeing were all the ones that had influenced his path. Or rather, they were all significant milestones in his life!If Tyson hadn't carried him up the mountain, he wouldn't have had the chance to grow up. He would have just been an ordinary person if Tyson hadn't taught him the Nine Mystical Spells.If he hadn't gone to the prison to hand in the marriage contracts, he would have lived freely. And he wouldn't have been able to get out of prison were it not for Kylie calling of
With a calm and composed demeanor, Kaiser said, "Before I agree to your terms, I represent Darsia in setting forth three conditions. If..."Wayne interrupted immediately, "Do you or Darsia have the authority to negotiate with us? I'm giving you only two choices—agree or disagree!"…At the same time, Remus was still in the forest, or to be more precise, the scene he could see with his eyes was still of the forest. To put it even more precisely, it was the same view he had seen before, repeating over and over again."I can't change it. There's nothing I can do. I'm really stuck here. Whether this place is the so-called Limbo or not, to me, it truly is Limbo."Remus kept repeating the words over and over in a monotone, completely devoid of emotion. He had lost count of how many times it'd been repeated.Tyson's voice rang out again. "You're a child with a tough life as you lost your parents right after you were born. But at the same time, you're also a lucky child."Your father st
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
