Alex POV

Within seconds the expressions on the face of 4th leader Lucius changed from shock to anger, ignoring the instruction we have received from the tower he charged at me holding his ancestral draconic dagger in his right hands.

Just when his dagger was about to reach my neck a bright white light enveloped him and teleported him almost 2 kilometer away from his position.

"What a fool." 1st leader said as he looked at demion.

"Have you come to take revenge?" 1st leader asked looking at demion.

"That is one of the reason." Demion said.

"Then I have to disappoint you that you will not be able to complete any of your other missions because you will be dying here in this floor." 1st leader chuckled.

"Do you intend to kill me using your words and underhanded tricks just like how you did with my father?" Demions words provoked 1st leader but their conversation was interrupted by the arrival of 4th leader Lucius.

"What tricks did you used you bastard, I knew this tower and trial were all

    Alex POVUpon our consent demion and Morris were transported away to the opposite end of the coliseum and both of us entered the white transparent dome which was 2 kilometer wide.[Use of any ability, weapon and summon is allowed inside the dome.][Dome will be lifted only when one participant dies.]From the 1st trial the tower has been treating beast and retainers as my summons but this floor was different anything summoned outside the dome is considered as a different participant just like demion but inside the dome I can summon any beast for my help.'Demion can you hear and see me?' I asked demion telepathically from inside the dome to check whether sound can be transmitted.'Yes lord alex.' He replied which confirmed that the dome is there to only restrict our physical moments.I already had an idea how I will extract information from Lucius and therefore I summoned psyche (the beast having ability related to mind). His sudden appearance made both leaders raise their eyebrow, bu

    [Black hole]A dense 2 meter round black ball left my hand and reached above the center of dome and suddenly started to expand and consuming everything from it surrounding. The eerie sounds which I had been hearing till now disappeared entirely replaced by a deadly bone crushing pressure and silence.Even sound couldn't exist and gets consumed whenever I used [black hole]. The more it consumed the fog the bigger it gets no matter how much fog 4th leader Lucius would release it would just fuel my attack more until he is exhausted.It was one my most dangerous attack not only because of it destructiveness but because if I didn't control it, it will continue to grow until there is nothing left in its surrounding, even consuming itself and detonating.The suction and pressure inside the [black hole] was so dense that it can crush any attack to its basic component not only attacks but even living beings.I stayed rooted in my place solidifying the space around me so that I wouldn't get suc

    When Lucius activated the ring in his hand his whole body was surrounded by a layer of silver bubble and various runes danced on the surface of the bubble, it was similar to my spell [Quick seal] with which I had stored my beasts and retainers in space pocket.From outside I could see that the wounds of Lucius body were not healing but reverting back to its previous form I tried to attack him with another offensive ability [Space bomb] in which I could condense the space so dense that I could convert it into an orb.The orb touched the silver bubble and detonated but when the dust settled 4th leader was standing there with all his wounds healed, he was back to his perfect self the way he entered this trial. So apart from turning back time it was also inscribed with strong protection rune.The silver light which ring was emitting has dimmed down a little but if they can really turn back time to some extent with the help of this artifact the difficulty of this mission has risen to anoth

    [Space Domain]I said and my eyes shone bright golden, inside the dome, where we both were fighting, another Grey dome appeared covering me, Lucius and all the souls Lucius has summoned.An unfathomable amount of pressure descended on every being apart from me and the souls which Lucius has summoned were mauled into the ground. Lucius bent down to his knees finding it hard to even raise his head up and I increased the pressure twice which resulted in him being buried deep into the ground.Lucius was lucky to not have died because of his strong body but the souls he has summoned were not that lucky. They couldn't move before and when the pressure increased they evaporated into thin air as if they didn't exist.The ability which Lucius displayed [Soul manipulation] was a lesser version of domain type ability which can only be exhibited by a primordial dragon. He can manipulate other souls within the specified area based on the strength of his own soul while inside a perfect domain I can

    'After we have overcome this hurdle, The Throne of Sovereignty shall be mine. Don't hesitate to lay your life for the cause because I will revive you even if your soul has been wiped out from existence.' As King Azmath entered the portal he spoke to every leader.Even if he had some way to evolve into Dragon god there was no way for him to revive someone dead, the realm of Dragon god definitely possessed extraordinary power but even after having command over whole universe you can't use that power against living being, otherwise my father would have killed the king with his own hands rather than sealing this non-living universe.But it was definitely not a lie king do have some way to revive them because he had made a soul contract with all the leaders to revive them, this much information I had received from Lucius memories.Just what is this method that king had found.Forcefully opening the space rune of Lucius which was engraved on his hand I retrieved the artifact which he was us

    Demion POVI first entered the dome and morris followed me. I could sense his killing intent focused on my back but I didn't turn until reaching the center of the dome which was 2 kilometer wide."Is this place you have chosen as your grave?" He asked."Let's see whether you have the ability to send me to my grave." I replied retrieving my cherished draconic sword [Punisher] and took the fighting stance.The sword was the same with which I had fought Theris back on 1st floor but at that time I didn't activated its abilities just like how Lord Alex fought Lucius without activating abilities of [Aurora]. The sword had two active and one passive ability to use but I don't want to activate the second active ability if I can help it.The first ability of the sword was [overload]. Depending on my mana reserve the power of my attacks would increase for a short time without any limit and the moment I use this ability it could be a decisive turn in the fight. After use of [Overload] the sword

    By creating my own field of fire I was safe from the black flame which has turned the surrounding into a volcano field but I didn't know what morris was trying to achieve by doing this.Soon the black flames covered my vision. Sensing that morris was trying to do the same thing which Lucius did, trying to block my vision and play some tricks maybe fighting with a new sword or retrieve new artifact, to prevent that I manifested two huge wings behind my back and flew toward the location where I was sensing morris's presence, but as if he was expecting me to attack, he was ready to attack me.I felt a sense of crisis envelop my whole body and a shadow passed by me the attack hidden in the shadow was too fast for me to block but on pure instinct I moved my sword and my sword collided with a hard object.The force behind the attack pushed me to the ground and I was thrown into the lava below. My body dipped into the lava but immediately transforming into my true dragon form the scales on m

    [Void Slash]Swishhhh…A silent wind passed between me and morris. When I lowered the sword [Aurora], there was nothing but empty space between me and morris but I had to face a great difficulty cutting the empty air because I was not only cutting the air but space itself.There were many conditions which needed to be satisfied to perform this technique and one of them was to have an unbreakable sword. If I had tried to perform this attack with my sword [Punisher] it would have broken halfway through because this 12th sword technique put that much pressure on the user and sword.There were very few known swords in the dragon realm, which were capable of cutting space without breaking, one of them was [Aurora] in my hand and other was king Azmath's draconic weapon.Right now what I was using was not a void based ability but a realization of small part of law of void I have gained with the help of Lord Alex and its compatibility with my sword technique.This ability on top of consuming

    "As expected of leader mash, he killed one of the Retainers with just his breath." A dragon standing on the right spoke while all other dragon laughed but the expression on the face of mash contorted, deactivating his [Fire age] ability he looked at all other dragons."Fools, we have been fighting with his illusionary clones till now, his real body is somewhere else, spread out and find him." He shouted and everyone scattered including the leader mash around the teleportation dome.I had installed 3 devises around the teleportation dome and hid them perfectly so no one could find them but last devise was to be installed where the dragons were having a fight with my clones.I was able to fool the dragons because I had activated my [Illusion domain] the moment I spotted them but the moment my [Illusion domain] weakened a little the leader caught whim of my plan but I had done what I wanted to do and just the one last thing remained to be done.The dragons spread around the dome while 2

    Jacob POVAfter separating from the main group I headed toward the 2nd teleportation blocking formation with 2 X ranked beast. Masking our presence as much as we could we headed toward the teleportation formation at full speed but even then I could feel a powerful presence heading toward us from behind but ignoring him we headed straight toward the teleportation array."Just focus on reaching and destroying the teleportation formation, we will have plenty of time to fight afterwards." I said sensing the eagerness of beasts to fight the leader tailing us.Out of the two beasts who were accompanying me one of name was rhino. He was a 20 meter tall muscular humanoid beast. His skin was so though that I doubt even demion's sword could pierce his skin and he had a 3 meter long sharp horn protruding from his head because of this feature he resembled a humanoid rhino but his ability lies somewhere else.The other beast, he was a spider type beast initially but after evolving into an X ranked

    I thought of sealing Demion inside the [Quick seal] for now and work something out with the help of other beasts in next floor but soon an unexpected thing happened.Demion's body started to swell and turn red; it uncontrollably released white flames and blood started to leak out of Demion's mouth.Soon an ear piercing roar was heard from Demion's mouth while he was unconscious, his soul slowly fading.I thought what was happening to him, was it some kind of side effect of using [Soul sacrifice] , but in the past nothing like this has ever happened and he had already paid the price by sacrificing almost 90% of his soul leaving his soul weaker than Dragon kings realm dragons.But soon my confusion turned into astonishment as I could see that between white flames, there was a faint purple glow.This idiot was evolving from dragon monarch to pseudo primordial dragon. Once he has evolved his path to become a primordial dragon was paved, no matter how much time it would take.But he has se

    When my white flames were about to overpower him, he activated his final ability [Inferno Domain] and our surrounding became more hot, my senses alerted me to distance myself from morris and I did so but morris grabbed me, his body pulsing with lava from within, his wound, I could see visible black and red lines of lava, which was enough to melt me in an instance, if touched him and therefore I had to build distance between us as soon as possible.Not caring about consequences I accumulated the white flames in my mouth and bit the neck of morris in doing so my own mouth was burned and started to melt, my skull and teeth became visible but ignoring the pain I tore a huge chunk of meat from morris neck and morris released me from his grip throwing away from him and crashed on the ground.My attack just now had not weakened him much because his [Inferno domain] was still active. I had heard about his domain skill but sensing it firsthand, I could say that the rumors were understated.Our
