Remus turned toward the dark spirits; his expression had never been colder. He quickly bit his finger and cast a spell as he took a heavy step forward. He extended his palm outward, as if he were forming a shield.His palm was able to resist all of the dark spirits.Everything behind Remus became completely still. Seraphine's clothes were perfectly in place, her hair unaffected, as if nothing had happened.Remus stared at them angrily and said, "You bunch of fools! Do you know the consequences of provoking the tomb's owner? Stop immediately, or I will exterminate all of you after I settle Seraphine's matter!"Dealing with them was easy, but he couldn't act now. If he made a slight mistake and angered the tomb's owner, the consequences would be unimaginable. For now, he could only block their attacks.When Klave and the others saw Remus' gaze, they could feel the murderous intent in his eyes. It was enough to send shivers down their spines. However, they soon recovered from the fea
Suddenly, they heard from the tomb passage, each step sounding like war drums, drawing closer with each sound.In the blink of an eye, another group of people appeared in the tomb passage. A figure with a deathly pale complexion, dressed in a purple robe, led the group. It was none other than Howard, the leader of the Clan of Evil!Behind him stood a dozen or so figures in black robes with anger etched on their faces, led by Cyril."Master Ashford, as per our agreement, I have trapped him here. I'll leave the rest to you!" Graham spoke respectfully.Graham had gone to the Clan of Evil yesterday and pleaded with Howard to delay his actions by one day, buying him enough time to lead Remus into the tomb passage, ensuring foolproof success."Alright!" Howard nodded slightly and turned his chilling gaze to Remus, who stood amidst the golden light. "You have offended my disciples from the Clan of Evil in Evilton. But your death would be a loss. Considering the hardships of the training
"This is just a warning. Will you submit or not?" Howard asked arrogantly.Remus was still seething, but he could still hear Seraphine speaking. If he interrupted now, it would be difficult to seek forgiveness from the tomb's owner later.He could also eliminate the tomb's owner, but it would greatly damage his karma and shorten his lifespan. He was stuck in a dilemma. With a stern expression, he said, "This is your last chance. Leave immediately!""You're asking for it!" Howard's anger surged, and with a heavy stomp, the tomb chamber began to shake violently as if it were about to collapse. "Since you really wish to die that badly, I shall grant your wish!" After speaking, he slowly raised his hands.Then, every particle in the tomb chamber froze in place! The air seemed to be filled with something."An eighth-level Grandmaster is controlling his surroundings with his energy … He's unstoppable!" Graham spoke with a quivering voice, filled with awe."The Lord is mighty!" Cyril
Hearing this sound, everyone subconsciously looked over at the coffin. Even Remus instinctively stopped in his tracks. When he saw the coffin lid open, his whole body tensed up as if he were about to face a formidable enemy. He quickly moved forward, pulling Seraphine out of the circle and pushing her behind him. The circle could withstand the dark spirits but not the Supreme War God, who was 14 centuries old. He could easily break the circle with a snap of his finger.A strong aura emanated from the corpse within the coffin. It was just an aura, but the temperature in the tomb chamber rapidly dropped, almost reaching the freezing point. The hundreds of trapped dark spirits were the first to react, bowing down without a second thought. They were all kneeling and trembling on the ground.A pair of withered hands reached out from the coffin and grabbed onto the edge. Upon seeing this, Seraphine's body also began to tremble."What ... what is this?" Graham wet his pants once again. Fro
The crowd was shocked and thought Ray was easy to deceive. They chuckled to themselves, aware that Remus would end up dying if he fought against Ray. On the side, all the color had drained from Seraphina's face due to shock. Why wouldn't Ray listen to her explanation?Feeling the pressure, Remus said, "It really wasn't me." "Take this!" Instead of continuing with the nonsense, Ray waved his fists toward Remus. His move was simple, without any extra force. It was merely a punch. However, it made everyone feel as though the world would collapse. Remus knew that it was useless to dodge when it came to martial arts. Hence, he also punched Ray. With that, their fists collided, and the entire tomb chamber shook. Ray's punch was heavy, causing Remus' hand to go numb, and he retreated three steps. He only stopped when he reached a wall. On the other hand, Ray stood in place, surprisingly stable—no wonder he was known as the Supreme War God. "Remus!" Seraphina's face was pale. Sh
"Remus!" Seraphina couldn't help but shout his name, feeling like she'd been stabbed in the heart. "All hail the general!" Graham, Klave, and the others were excited. If it had been them, they would have died at Remus' hands; they had never expected Ray to be able to fight him. This could be considered a victory for them. "Amazing!" Ray shouted, "It's been long since I've met a tough young man like you. Let's have a good fight today!" His words spurred Remus' fighting spirit. After he'd left his master, all the opponents Remus had met had been weak, so he'd never gotten the chance to enjoy a fight. After looking at Seraphine, he felt relieved to see she was fine. It seemed that there was a curse on her or something else that was protecting her, since she hadn't been affected at all. Raising his hand, he wiped away the blood at the corner of his mouth. "Okay, I'll fight you!" Then he rushed forward to take the lead. His breath was released again, and just two steps away, he
Before Ray could finish, Remus interrupted him. "Attack!" With just a gesture from him, hundreds of blocks flew at Ray like bullets. The sound was deafening, like thunder. Ray had nowhere to run and could only try to resist. As each block smashed against his body, his complexion darkened. By the end of it, he'd become a dry corpse and looked extremely sickly. Everyone on the scene was astonished and in awe of how strong Remus was. How could he defeat a 14-century-old warrior and force him to retreat to the wall?While everyone remained frozen in shock, Remus spurted out a mouthful of blood, looking pale. Then he shook his head with a bitter smile. No wonder Ray was the Supreme Warrior God. Even after such a brutal attack, Remus had only managed to make him return to his original form.At this moment, Graham and the others were happy. It seemed like Remus was going to win this fight. Infuriated, Ray shouted, "Bastard! If I had my sword, you would never win against me." Remus
It took Howard a while to regain his energy before he sprinted toward Remus to administer the coup de grâce to him. He wasn't pulling back his punches!Klave incanted a spell, controlling the hundreds of dark spirits to claim Remus' life. "You're dead meat!"Sensing the impending danger, Ray leaped from the ground. It was merely a show; how could he possibly watch them harm Remus?Still, his capabilities had regressed compared to before. He was one step behind them, and so he witnessed Howard's fist approach Remus.Triumph got the best of Howard as he drew closer to Remus, for it wasn't a complete loss for him as long as he was able to kill Remus.However, Remus suddenly lifted his hand at crunch time. He managed to hold Howard's deadly fist with one hand while holding the letter with the other. He hadn't even raised his head; it was as though this was no big deal!"I—impossible!" Surprised to the core, Howard attempted to exert more strength in his fist, but he couldn't break fr
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
