"Fine. I accept your challenge," Remus replied."Great! Everyone here will be the witness. Now that the agreement has been made, anyone who goes against it will be killed. Go and get the furnaces to the front courtyard. Everyone can watch the competition lest someone cheats," Professor Watson said proudly. There were evil sparks in his eyes. If Remus hadn't mentioned using pills to poison Professor Calvert, this situation would have been tricky to handle. But since he dared call himself a pill maker and even acted presumptuous, Professor Watson would teach him a lesson and show him what real pill-making was. "Yes!" The disciples quickly agreed before looking at Remus with contempt. Professor Watson was the top pill maker in the Tanjen Organization. They were sure Remus would be defeated. Archer also laughed, "What an ignorant bastard. He thinks too highly of himself." The woman beside him said, "He's going to die no matter what choice he makes. So he's just taking a bet. Actua
The crowd was shocked as they never expected Remus to light up the furnace with a professor's leg. It was unbelievable. Professor Watson almost spurted a mouthful of blood. How dare Remus act so brazen? He killed Professor Clavert in the Tanjen Organization and even used his leg to light a fire. It was a huge insult to them. The other professors couldn't hold it in anymore and shouted in anger."Imbecile! I'll kill you right now!""How provocative! I'll light you on fire right now!""Take this!"Remus was motionless and ignored them. "He killed my seven brothers. Don't you think it's reasonable to use him to start a fire? You can fight me if you're scared to compete in pill cultivation." Once again, his words shocked the crowd. From the perspective of hate, lighting Professor Calvert's leg on fire was merely child's play. However, he was being provocative by deliberately lighting it in the face of the Tanjen Organization."Stop. The competition has started already. We can't
Professor Watson sneered, "What's the point of arguing when you're going to be defeated? Since you need more time, I'll show everyone the pill I've cultivated so they don't have to wait." He was confident with his own pill. All he needed was to get a Grade C, and he would win. He opened the furnace and looked inside. When he saw the pill in the furnace, he was dumbstruck. The crowd became worried when they saw his expression. "What's the matter, Professor Watson?""Is the pill ruined?""Impossible. What happened?" Then, they started to panic, especially the disciples. Their faces were red from panic. If that was the case, how would they deal with Remus? All they could do was watch him leave!Under everyone's anticipated gaze, Professor Watson stretched his hand into the furnace and took the pill out. He seemed to have used all his courage to show it to the world. "It's a Grade A pill. I've actually made a Grade-A pill! Hahaha!"Everyone looked at the pill in his hand, saw a
Everyone thought Remus was joking since he said it playfully. But when they saw the pill in his hands, they were stunned. The crowd was silent, and so was Professor Watson. He stood in place, shocked. The other professors seemed to have seen a beast. As for the disciples, grandmasters, and the remaining people, they were stupefied. Finally, a guy asked carefully, "What's the matter? Could it really be a Grade SA pill? That's impossible, right?"The person beside him seemed to have seen a divine being as he answered in a daze, "That's SSA-Grade. I've seen it in my master's collection. It looks exactly the same." The Grade SSA pill had a purple tone. Remus' pill had won Professor Watson's pill by two levels. "H-How is that possible?""Impossible. It must be fake.""B-But that really is a SSA-Grade pill!"The professors were shocked because a Grade SSA was a premium pill. Less than ten people in True Life could create such a pill. It was not exaggerated to say that Remus could
"I made a Grade A pill. Hahaha! I made a Grade A pill." Then, he started skipping as he continued, "I made a Grade A pill. I'm a genius!" As he bounced, his long hair that was tied became loose, making him look like a madman. Another professor walked to him and asked, "Professor Watson?" "I made a Grade A pill. I'm only in my 20s, and I could make such an amazing pill! I'm a genius!" Professor Watson shouted. The crowd was shocked; he was already in his 80s, but he said he was in his 20s? Could it be that he had imagined himself as Remus? Had he gone mad? That was right. Professor Watson had gone mad because he was let down at the highest point of his life. Professor Watson couldn't handle the disappointment, so he became crazy. Professor Adam was furious and shouted, "Bastard! Look what you've done! You killed Professor Calvert, and now you've made Professor Watson a madman! You have to die! Capture him!" "Yes!" The disciples ran toward Remus, but all of the pinnacle grand
Everyone became respectful when they saw Leo. When cultivating immortality, one had to have three essential things. First was magic, second was the inner pill, and the third, werepills. One needed to find magic from items like spirit stones, while inner pills were obtained through the risk of fighting beasts. The safest option was having pills. In True Life, Leo was ranked number seven in the cultivation of pills. When it came to Professor Calvert or Professor Watson, as long as one showed sincerity and pleased them enough, there would be a chance to get a pill from them. However, Leo never entertained anyone. It was a difficult task to meet him. If Leo wanted to help someone, one of his pills could make a normal person into a grandmaster or help grandmasters break through their pinnacle stage. He was the King of Pills. "Sir Leo!" The people called out to him and made way for him to walk. Leo ignored everyone and walked toward Remus. At this point, Remus turned back as he kne
The left deputy leader was furious. "What are you standing there for? Come over here and kneel. You should properly show your respect. You're lucky that Sir Leo isn't sentencing you to death. Instead, he's letting you join the Tanjen Organization. You should be grateful!" The right deputy leader said, "This is a once in a lifetime chance to change your fate. I imagine you'll become a deputy leader in ten years." Remus was deep in thought. It was impossible for him to join as he had to return to Neptuna immediately. He had to make sure everyone was fine and quickly find his three other fiancees. According to his Master's orders, only then could he rescue his mother. Now, he had to save his father too. Otherwise, it would be all for nothing after they had sacrificed themselves to save him. However, it would make things difficult if he disagreed to join. Suddenly, Leo asked, "You're hesitating. Do you think we're not worthy of you?" Everyone was shocked by his words. He would be
Remus was clueless about it. The reason why Remus knew how to cultivate pills was because he was good at medicine. Pill cultivation was getting the essence of herbs. Moreover, he practiced martial arts and wizardry. He was able to make the soul-saving pill because there were formulas in Professor Calvert's lab. However, he had never heard of the spirit-cleansing pill. Now that he had agreed, he said, "Okay. Prepare the herbs!" If these people prepared the herbs for them, it would avoid the hassle. However, many looked disappointed. They felt that a person could be presumptuous, but they should know when to step back. In the end, Remus actually asked the people to prepare the herbs and start the competition. It felt like he was going to make a fool of himself. Leo was shocked, looking at Remus. "You don't know how to make a spirit-cleansing pill?"The left deputy general laughed, "Spirit cleansing pill is to clear away any impurities in the body, strengthening the blood vessels a
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
