Chapter 1067: Battling Jade Rabbit

Translator: CKtalon

It was unknown if Jade Rabbit could understand him, but it ignored Zhou Wen and continued struggling.

However, as its body was covered in glue-like liquid, its struggles were futile.

A pure Strength-type creature has such a weakness. Once they are restrained, there's almost no chance of turning the tables. Tyrant Behemoth has the same weakness. Zhou Wen ordered the Seven Seas Dragon King to take the initiative to attack when he realized that Jade Rabbit was refusing to surrender.

The Seven Seas Dragon King's tentacles swept towards Jade Rabbit, but unfortunately, Jade Rabbit was just too big after its Terror transformation. The Seven Seas Dragon King's tentacles were unable to wrap around Jade Rabbit's body. All it could do was bite at its flesh.

The Jade Rabbit's flesh was terrifyingly tough. The tentacles with dragon heads nearly had their teeth chip when biting at it—they failed to bite through its flesh. All they did was tear off some rabbit fur.

What a powerful physique! Zhou Wen was secretly alarmed.

The Seven Seas Dragon King was at the Terror grade after all. Furthermore, its strength wasn't considered weak among the Terror-grade creatures. Yet, it was actually unable to break through the Jade Rabbit's defense. The strength of this fellow's physique was unimaginable.

If it hadn't been restrained by the Seven Seas Dragon King's ability, it would have been a huge problem.

From the looks of it, I have no choice but to let Demonic Neonate take action. Zhou Wen summoned Demonic Neonate.

"Jade Rabbit, I won't be holding back if you don't hand over the Elixir of Immortality," Zhou Wen shouted at Jade Rabbit again, but it continued struggling and ignored him.

"Neonate, let it see some blood," Zhou Wen instructed Demonic Neonate with his mind.

Demonic Neonate received the order and immediately unsheathed her Demonic Sword that flew towards Jade Rabbit.

The Demonic Sword was just too small. In front of the gigantic Jade Rabbit, it couldn't even be considered a needle.

However, the Demonic Sword's offensive strength was clearly much stronger than the Seven Seas Dragon King's. It tore through the Jade Rabbit's flesh and stabbed right in.

A drop of blood flowed out along the sword hilt. Zhou Wen was about to shout at Jade Rabbit again, but when his gaze landed on its face, he was stunned.

Jade Rabbit's originally red eyes had turned black. Then, its eyelids drooped down as crystalline tears shimmered inside.

"Wa!" Jade Rabbit suddenly cried as large drops of tears streamed down.

As it cried, its huge body slowly shrank and returned to its original size. It cried in the glue and soon, it was wet.

Zhou Wen was depressed. "Why are you crying like a child when you're a Terror creature?"

"Jade Rabbit, hand over the Elixir of Immortality and I'll immediately release you," Zhou Wen said to Jade Rabbit.

It would have been better if he hadn't said it. With him saying that, Jade Rabbit cried even more tragically. Its tears flowed down like a stream.

Zhou Wen was just about to say something when he suddenly realized that something was amiss. The tears had drenched the Jade Rabbit's fur, and the sticky liquid that stuck to its body had automatically fallen off, preventing it from sticking to it.

When Jade Rabbit realized that the glue on its body had been removed, it was immediately surprised and delighted. It jumped up and rushed to the edge of the ring-shaped mountain. With another flash, it was gone. Its speed was terrifying.

Zhou Wen was immediately depressed. He didn't expect Jade Rabbit's tears to be able to remove the Seven Seas Dragon King's sticky liquid. Jade Rabbit was gone before he could obtain the Elixir of Immortality.

With Jade Rabbit's speed, even a Mythical Companion Beast that was proficient in speed wouldn't be able to catch up. Since Demonic Neonate didn't chase after it, it was obvious that any attempts would be pointless.

From the looks of it, the Moon is doomed. It's not my fault. Zhou Wen saw that the jade pestle of the Jade Rabbit was still stuck there. It couldn't take it away in time, so he walked over to put it away.

After the Seven Seas Dragon King dispelled the sticky liquid, Zhou Wen reached out to grab the jade pestle, hoping to pick it up, but after exerting some force, the jade pestle remained motionless.

It's heavy! Zhou Wen held the jade pestle with both hands, hoping to pull it out.

However, the jade pestle remained motionless, surprising Zhou Wen.

Zhou Wen got the Seven Seas Dragon King to extend its tentacles to sweep up the jade pestle, but even after using all its strength, the Seven Seas Dragon King failed to lift it.

It can't be! The Seven Seas Dragon King is at the Terror grade, but it can't even lift the jade pestle? How heavy is this jade pestle! Zhou Wen was alarmed as he had another idea. Perhaps it's not just a matter of strength. The Seven Seas Dragon King can even move a building after all. Perhaps it's possible that only the Jade Rabbit can lift this jade pestle.

Demonic Neonate suddenly turned her head in a direction. Zhou Wen turned his head and saw Jade Rabbit retracting its head and hiding behind the mountain.

Why is it back? Zhou Wen thought for a moment and knew what was going on.

Jade Rabbit was definitely unwilling to part with the jade pestle, so it had come back for it.

"Jade Rabbit, if you want the jade pestle back, exchange it with the Elixir of Immortality," Zhou Wen shouted at the spot where Jade Rabbit was hiding.

Jade Rabbit seemed to know that Zhou Wen couldn't catch up to it, so it became a lot bolder. Although it didn't dare come over, it extended its head and paw from behind the mountain wall. Then, it raised its paw and made a universally-known gesture at Zhou Wen.

Holy sh*t, this rabbit actually knows that? Zhou Wen was somewhat surprised.

Jade Rabbit knew that Zhou Wen couldn't lift its jade pestle, so it wasn't afraid of Zhou Wen's threat. Zhou Wen really had no choice. The jade pestle was terrifyingly heavy. He couldn't lift it at all.

What should I do? Zhou Wen glanced in the direction of Moon Palace and saw that the flames were becoming more and more blinding. Clearly, the logger was at a huge advantage. He didn't know how long Chang'e and Ice Maiden could last.

Is the Moon really going to be destroyed? Zhou Wen wondered how he could obtain the Elixir of Immortality from Jade Rabbit.

Jade Rabbit's speed is too fast. If Demonic Neonate doesn't chase after it, it means that she knows that she can't catch up to it. Furthermore, Jade Rabbit's strength and physical toughness are extremely terrifying. It's virtually impossible to catch it. However, if I don't stand any chance, why would the Moon Goddess send me? Does she want to use Jade Rabbit to kill me? But there's no need for that. She can even freeze Ice Maiden with her strength. If she wants to attack me, she could have done it in front of the Moon Goddess Temple.

But if I have a chance of obtaining the Elixir of Immortality, where's the chance? Jade Rabbit isn't someone I can match... Jade Rabbit... I seem to remember having something like that in the past... Zhou Wen suddenly thought of something as he sank his consciousness into the Chaos Bead and rummaged around.

After a while, Zhou Wen found something.

It was a translucent jade box with mysterious cloud patterns on it. This jade box was something Zhou Wen had obtained from White Cloud Mountain's Jade Rabbit's Lunar Prayer Stone.

Back when The Thearch had guided him to obtain the jade box, he had only discovered some low-level dimensional crystals inside. Zhou Wen was quite disappointed because they weren't of much use.

He had felt that the jade box might be a little special, so he had stored it away in passing. Now, he suddenly recalled that the Jade Rabbit's Lunar Prayer Stone was said to be a manifestation of the Jade Rabbit when it descended to the mortal world. The jade box was supposed to have been hidden by the Jade Rabbit. He didn't really know if it had anything to do with the Jade Rabbit.

Chapter 1068: Exchange for the Elixir of Immortality

Translator: CKtalon

Zhou Wen didn't know if the jade box had anything to do with the Jade Rabbit on the moon. After all, legends were only legends. Many legends were just far-fetched.

When he took out the jade box, he only felt that the material of the jade box was somewhat similar to the jade pestle.

He compared the jade box with the jade pestle and realized that the materials were very similar.

He casually opened the jade box and suddenly heard a whoosh. The jade pestle, that even the Seven Seas Dragon King couldn't move, actually moved by itself and flew into the jade box.

The jade pestle shrank as it flew over before quickly landing in the jade box. The box fit it perfectly.

Zhou Wen looked at the jade pestle lying silently in the jade box and was alarmed. The Seven Seas Dragon King couldn't even lift the jade pestle, but it didn't seem to add much weight to the jade box.

Jade Rabbit immediately became anxious when it saw the jade pestle taken away. It stood on the edge of the mountain and shouted and jumped at Zhou Wen as though it was threatening him to return the jade pestle or it would eat him.

Zhou Wen closed the jade box and stored it in the Chaos Bead before saying to Jade Rabbit, "Exchange for it with the Elixir of Immortality."

Jade Rabbit was even more furious when it heard that. Its body expanded once again and soon, it became an extremely huge rabbit. Its body was much taller than the ring-shaped mountain.

The ring-shaped mountain was like a toy model in front of Jade Rabbit, while Zhou Wen and company were ants inside the toy.

Jade Rabbit revealed its ferociousness, but because it had suffered under the Seven Seas Dragon King, it didn't dare rush down. All it did was flare up outside.

"Since you don't wish to exchange for it, I'm leaving." Zhou Wen carried Demonic Neonate and ordered the Seven Seas Dragon King to head out of the ring-shaped mountain.

The Seven Seas Dragon King's tentacles danced as it quickly rushed out of the ring-shaped mountain. Jade Rabbit was screaming fiercely, but it didn't dare rush forward or stop Zhou Wen. It was in a panic.

Wah!

When Jade Rabbit saw that Zhou Wen was really leaving the ring-shaped mountain, it cried out again. Its body rapidly shrank back to its original size as it rolled on the ground and cried.

"Give me some of the Elixir of Immortality and I'll return the jade pestle to you," Zhou Wen said to the crying Jade Rabbit on the ground.

Jade Rabbit crawled up from the ground, its eyes still brimming with tears. Then, it gestured with its front paws as though it was outlining a square.

Zhou Wen took out the jade box and asked Jade Rabbit, "You want this box?"

When Jade Rabbit saw the jade box, it nodded immediately and stopped crying.

"Alright, I can give you the jade box and jade pestle, but you have to give me the Elixir of Immortality." Zhou Wen had no use for the jade box, so he might as well exchange it with Jade Rabbit.

Jade Rabbit seemed hesitant as it looked at Zhou Wen and the jade box in his hand. Finally, it nodded firmly.

"Where did you put the Elixir of Immortality?" Zhou Wen couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief when he saw Jade Rabbit nod.

Jade Rabbit waved its paw at Zhou Wen before running in a particular direction.

Zhou Wen ordered the Seven Seas Dragon King to follow Jade Rabbit and left the white ring-shaped mountain. He traversed numerous ring-shaped mountains and soon arrived in front of a stone hut.

The stone hut was simple and crude, as though it was built by a barbarian. It didn't look anything special. Furthermore, the stone door was covered in dust, making it look uninhabited.

Jade Rabbit bowed in front of the stone hut before pushing open the door. It stood inside the stone hut and waved its paw at Zhou Wen.

Zhou Wen walked to the door and saw that the decorations in the stone hut were very simple. They were all primitive stone tools with stone carvings.

Jade Rabbit went to one of the stone pots and opened the lid. Then, it carefully picked up the stone pot and tipped it twice.

A crystalline pill rolled out of the stone pot. It was the size of a baby's fist and emitted a strong osmanthus fragrance. The fragrance could penetrate the protection of the space suit, allowing Zhou Wen to smell the fragrance.

Jade Rabbit grabbed the pill with one paw and pointed at the jade box in Zhou Wen's hand with the other paw, clearly indicating that it wanted to exchange it with him.

Zhou Wen didn't hand over the jade box. He looked at the stone pot and said, "You still have Elixirs of Immortality in that stone pot, right? Didn't you say that you wanted to exchange all the Elixirs of Immortality with me?"

Jade Rabbit immediately picked up the stone pot and looked at Zhou Wen warily. Then, it pointed at the pill in its paw and the jade box, indicating that it was a one-for-one exchange.

"No can do. You have to exchange all the Elixirs of Immortality with me." Zhou Wen shook his head.

Jade Rabbit's face showed a struggle. Finally, as though it had made up its mind, it extended its paws and gestured a two in front of Zhou Wen.

Zhou Wen was delighted. From the looks of it, there are more than two Elixirs of Immortality in the stone pot.

Zhou Wen pointed at the stone pot and said, "I want all the Elixirs of Immortality."

Jade Rabbit hugged the stone pot and shook its head like a rattle drum. Its body kept retreating as it looked at Zhou Wen as though it was looking at a thief.

"Don't you want the jade box and jade pestle?" Zhou Wen waved the jade box in front of Jade Rabbit and tempted it.

Jade Rabbit's eyes followed the jade box as it spun. It wished it could grab the jade box, but it couldn't bear to part with the Elixirs of Immortality.

Seeing Jade Rabbit struggling as though it couldn't make up her mind, Zhou Wen asked, "How many Elixirs of Immortality are in the stone pot?"

Jade Rabbit used its paw to gesture three. Only then did Zhou Wen realize that there were only three Elixirs of Immortality.

Zhou Wen noticed that Jade Rabbit's intelligence wasn't high. At most, it was at the level of a child. His heart stirred as he said to the Jade Rabbit with a smile, "How about this? I'll exchange the jade box for all your Elixirs of Immortality."

When Jade Rabbit heard that, it immediately shook its head and hugged the stone pot even tighter.

"Hear me out. Just treat it as leaving the Elixirs of Immortality with me. In the future, follow me and help me do some trivial things if possible. I'll take care of your food and drink. If you perform well, I'll return one Elixir of Immortality to you. If you perform well and make me happy, I'll return two Elixirs of Immortality. Perhaps you can even get back all three Elixirs of Immortality. What do you think?" Zhou Wen said to Jade Rabbit.

When Jade Rabbit heard that, it extended its paw and counted as though it was calculating something.

After some calculation, Jade Rabbit felt that it was worth it. Therefore, it nodded happily and handed the stone pot to Zhou Wen.

"That's right. I'll help you put the Elixirs of Immortality away for now. From now on, follow me and you'll live in the lap of luxury. I guarantee you won't regret it." Zhou Wen reached out to take the stone pot.

However, Jade Rabbit pulled it back and pointed at the jade box in Zhou Wen's hand. It meant that they had to exchange the items at the same time.

Zhou Wen handed the jade box over in exchange for the stone pot. He looked inside and indeed, there were three pills inside. Each of them were jade-white and emitted a strong osmanthus fragrance. Just taking in the fragrance made him feel refreshed as though he was about to fly and ascend.

When Jade Rabbit obtained the jade box, it was also very happy. It hugged the jade box and rubbed its face against it as though it had obtained a treasure.

Chapter 1069: Speculation of the Strongest Companion Beast

Translator: CKtalon

When Zhou Wen returned, he didn't head to the Moon Goddess Temple. Instead, he circled around and came close to Moon Palace.

As Zhou Wen didn't know how true the Moon Goddess's words were, he wanted to head to Moon Palace to take a look.

With the Elixirs of Immortality in hand, and having lured Jade Rabbit over, together with the Seven Seas Dragon King and Demonic Neonate, he could greatly influence the battle. It wouldn't be too late to make a move after figuring out who would be beneficial to humanity.

At that moment, there was almost no cold fog in Moon Palace. There were flames burning everywhere, and many jade buildings were aflame.

Amidst the flames, there was only a jade palace with a small amount of cold fog surging.

As for the huge osmanthus tree, under the remnant blasts from the battle, large numbers of petals fell and fluttered everywhere.

I'm rich. There are so many petals, and every one of them is equivalent to an Epic Companion Beast... Zhou Wen saw that there were copious numbers of petals. He didn't know how long it would take him to pick them up if he were to pick them up one by one. Therefore, he summoned the army of Musical Notes and let them fuse with the petals.

Companion Beasts below the Mythical stage found it difficult to maintain their combat strength in space. However, there were a few low-level Companion Beasts that could survive in space.

Although Musical Note Sprites had virtually zero combat strength in space, surviving wasn't a problem.

Thousands of Musical Note Sprites pounced at the falling petals. Every Musical Note Sprite immediately absorbed the petals upon contact, allowing them to enter an evolutionary state.

The scene of tens of thousands of Companion Beasts evolving together was spectacular.

Zhou Wen had almost 100,000 Musical Note Sprites and the number of petals that fell here exceeded 100,000.

He summoned the other Legendary and Epic Companion Beasts he usually gathered and got them to absorb the petals.

Those at the Legendary stage were directly promoted, but those at the Epic stage only had their stats boosted. When they used a second petal, the effects became much weaker.

Zhou Wen summoned the Evil Spirit King as well, hoping that he could absorb the petals and quickly advance. To his surprise, he didn't even look at the petals. He had no intention of absorbing them.

Is he that picky? Zhou Wen was somewhat speechless.

Ever since the Evil Spirit King was born, it had only absorbed energy from Companion Eggs. Furthermore, they had to be at the same level—it ate nothing else.

There were still many petals falling from the tree, but they were all closer to the battlefield. Zhou Wen was afraid of being implicated, so he didn't dare approach.

Just as he was hesitating about whether to pick up the petals, he suddenly heard a loud bang. The jade palace, that had emitted a cold fog, exploded and was instantly reduced to ruins.

All the cold fog vanished. At the same time, two figures appeared from the ice beam. Clearly, they were unable to maintain their Terror states.

Zhou Wen saw Ice Maiden land in a sorry state in the ruins of the palace. The huge dark-gold toad had fallen with her.

At that moment, the dark-gold toad's body emitted layers of frosty gas. Its body seemed to be covered in frost, but some spots were already charred black by the flames. There was no protection from the frost.

It's Ice Maiden and the toad. Why don't I see Chang'e? Zhou Wen looked around but didn't see the legendary Chang'e.

Just as he was feeling puzzled, he saw Wei Ge walk out of the flames one step at a time. He held nothing in his hand, but flames condensed into a battle axe that hung down to the ground.

"Chang'e, you can't stop me. Give up," Wei Ge said as he walked towards the dark-gold toad.

Who is he talking to? Who's Chang'e? There's only that toad over there... Zhou Wen widened his eyes in disbelief as he stared at the dark-gold toad.

He couldn't believe his guess. The beautiful celestial maiden, Chang'e, was actually a toad. Wasn't this too ridiculous?

However, the toad stirred up the frost again and stood in front of Wei Ge. It looked like it wanted to continue fighting, but it couldn't even enter the Terror state. Its combat strength had greatly weakened. Even if it continued fighting, only death awaited it.

Ice Maiden was clearly seriously injured. She was also unable to maintain her Terror transformation, but she wasn't as stubborn as the toad. She had already secretly retreated.

As Wei Ge walked towards the toad, he said, "Chang'e, why bother? Let me chop down the Tree of Immortality. Although you will lose the ability to live forever, you can regain your original appearance and no longer have to be an ugly toad. Isn't this what you want? Or would you rather be an ugly toad in order to live forever?"

When Zhou Wen heard this, he was certain that the toad was the legendary Chang'e.

Chang'e is actually a toad. I wonder how those people who fantasize about Chang'e will react when they see her true appearance? Zhou Wen secretly rejoiced that he hadn't immediately eaten the Elixir of Immortality after obtaining it.

So the Elixir of Immortality created using the Tree of Immortality actually had such negative side effects.

Zhou Wen would rather not advance to the Mythical stage than become a toad.

"Even if I'm ugly and despised by the world, I will still wait here for him." The toad finally spoke. Indeed, it was a woman's voice.

"He's only an ordinary human. Even if he has the stunning Power of Sun Strafe, he's only a speck of dust in the river of time. It's already unknown where the dust has landed. That wait will be fruitless," Wei Ge said.

"No, he'll come, he'll definitely..." Chang'e yelled in a frenzy.

"If you knew this would happen, why did you do it in the first place? I originally wanted to spare your life on account of our similar circumstances. Since you wish for death, I can only fulfill your wish," Wei Ge said as he slowly raised the flaming ax in his hand, hoping to kill the toad.

Zhou Wen hesitated for a moment before taking out an Elixir of Immortality. He summoned the Jade Rabbit and headed for Chang'e.

"Chang'e, let me ask you. If the Tree of Immortality is chopped down, will the Moon really be destroyed?" Zhou Wen asked the dark-gold toad.

"No." Chang'e originally didn't want to answer when she saw that it was a human youth, but when she saw Jade Rabbit beside Zhou Wen, she was slightly alarmed and answered his question.

Was Moon Goddess really lying to me? Zhou Wen frowned inwardly.

To his surprise, Chang'e continued, "However, the Tree of Immortality is connected to the Moon's Companion Beast. The destruction of the Tree of Immortality means that when the Companion Beast inside the Moon appears, the Moon, which is the outer shell of the Companion Egg, will naturally shatter.

"What... You're telling me that the Moon is a Companion Egg..." Zhou Wen looked at Chang'e in horror, almost unable to believe his ears.

He wasn't shocked by the strength of the Companion Beasts inside the Moon, but the news made him think of something else.

If the Moon is a Companion Egg, what about Earth? If Earth is also a Companion Egg, wouldn't the strongest Companion Beast that the dimension is seeking be inside the Earth?

If the Companion Beast broke out of its shell, Zhou Wen couldn't imagine what Earth would become.

The more Zhou Wen thought about it, the more he felt that it was right. It was no wonder the bigwigs of the dimension said that Earth would be doomed once the strongest Companion Beast was found.

Zhou Wen couldn't help but recall a scene after a chick broke out of its shell. It seemed like some fledglings ate their eggshells.

Ice Maiden also seemed to have thought of something, and her expression became extremely strange.

That's not right. If Earth is a Companion Egg, wouldn't we be able to find the Companion Beast inside as long as we keep digging? There's no need to spend so much time searching, right?

As Zhou Wen thought about it, he suddenly thought of something. Could it be that the ship that tore through the sky and broke apart the supercontinent was planning to crack the Companion Egg and search for the Companion Beast inside the Earth? If that's the case, they clearly didn't succeed. What stopped them?

Countless thoughts flashed through Zhou Wen's mind, but he didn't know which was the correct answer.

While Zhou Wen was still pondering, Wei Ge's flaming ax slashed at the toad.

"Bunny, stop him," Zhou Wen shouted at Jade Rabbit.

Jade Rabbit was somewhat hesitant, but when it saw Zhou Wen raise the Elixir of Immortality in his hand, it immediately took action. It took out the jade pestle and transformed into the huge rabbit in its Terror state. It smashed it at Wei Ge.

The flaming ax in Wei Ge's hand rose and collided with the huge jade pestle that Jade Rabbit had smashed down.

With a boom, a terrifying shock wave instantly destroyed everything nearby.

Zhou Wen was sent flying as the space suit turned to dust, revealing the Galaxy Shell Dragon Armor inside.

With Absolute Defense, Zhou Wen survived the terrifying blast.

Jade Rabbit's strength was extremely terrifying. The jade pestle constantly struck out, showing zero disadvantage when facing Wei Ge head-on. It even had the upper hand.

This surprised Zhou Wen greatly. This was because Jade Rabbit had previously been restrained by the Seven Seas Dragon King, preventing it from unleashing its true strength. This had given Zhou Wen the illusion that it wasn't very strong.

From the looks of it, the strength of the Jade Rabbit far exceeded the dark-gold toad.

On second thoughts, Zhou Wen came to a realization. The logger could fell the Tree of Immortality, and Jade Rabbit could also use the Tree of Immortality as a medicinal ingredient.

It would be impossible for an existence that could shatter the Tree of Immortality to be weak.

As long as it wasn't restrained, Jade Rabbit's strength was just too terrifying.

Zhou Wen wore the Shell Dragon Armor, so the radiation and environment on the moon couldn't harm him. The boiling point on the moon was very low, so if ordinary people didn't have space suits to protect them. Their blood would boil, making it impossible for them to survive.

With the protection of the Shell Dragon Armor, he didn't have to worry about this. However, he hadn't reached a state where he could survive without oxygen. Without oxygen for a long period of time, he would still die.

Thankfully, Zhou Wen's Chaos Bead had many space suits and oxygen supplies, so he didn't have to worry.

Now wasn't the time to change into his space suit. Zhou Wen quickly retreated to prevent himself from being drawn into the terrifying battle.

Chang'e and Ice Maiden were also sent flying. They had been severely injured, so they were unable to transform into their Terror forms for the time being and could no longer participate in the battle.

Zhou Wen didn't give the Elixir of Immortality to Chang'e. If Jade Rabbit could suppress the logger, he could save one Elixir of Immortality.

"Jade Rabbit can't stop the logger. Give the Elixir of Immortality to Chang'e and get her to help Jade Rabbit." Moon Goddess's ethereal voice suddenly entered Zhou Wen's ears.

"Moon Goddess, didn't you say that with your token, Jade Rabbit wouldn't do anything to me? I was nearly killed by Jade Rabbit," Zhou Wen said coldly.

Moon Goddess's voice remained as gentle as before. "If I hadn't said that, would you have gone? I also knew that it would be extremely dangerous, but if you hadn't made the trip, there'd really be no hope for the Moon."

"Don't tell me you really thought that I could defeat the Terror-grade Jade Rabbit and obtain its Elixir of Immortality?" Zhou Wen curled his lips.

"I didn't expect you to defeat Jade Rabbit either, but if you want the Elixir of Immortality, you don't necessarily have to defeat it. Others might not be able to do it, but you might be able to," Moon Goddess said faintly.

"You sure have confidence in me. I'm not that confident of myself," Zhou Wen mocked.

Moon Goddess said with a smile, "Didn't you do it? Furthermore, you did it better than I imagined. Not only did you obtain the Elixirs of Immortality, but you also brought the Jade Rabbit over and made it assist you."

"That's because I'm lucky. What if I'm unlucky?" Zhou Wen snorted coldly.

"If you aren't lucky, there won't be anyone in this world with good luck," Moon Goddess said.

"What do you mean?" Zhou Wen asked with a frown.

"Have you ever bowed at a temple?" Moon Goddess asked.

"So what if I did?" Zhou Wen's heart stirred as Moon Goddess seemed to know something.

"No, you haven't bowed before because no temple's deity will dare to accept your bow. Even I don't dare," Moon Goddess said.

"Why won't any deities accept my bow? What's so different about my Life Providence?" Zhou Wen finally confirmed that Moon Goddess knew something.

"I don't know."

Zhou Wen couldn't accept the Moon Goddess's answer.

"What an answer," Zhou Wen said coldly.

"There's no need for you to be angry. If I could completely see through your Life Providence, I wouldn't be afraid of being worshiped by you. I can only tell that there's something wrong with it. It shouldn't be your Life Providence, but a Life Providence formed due to the influence of external forces. Furthermore, that Life Providence is too ferocious. If I were to receive your bow, I'm afraid I would be plagued by calamities and catastrophes. Even deities would suffer greatly," Moon Goddess said.

Zhou Wen didn't wish to harp on this matter as he asked, "Chang'e said that the Moon is a Companion Egg. Is that true?"

"Yes, the same for Earth too. However, you don't have to worry. Earth is different from others. The Companion Beast inside won't be born so easily." Moon Goddess seemed to know what Zhou Wen wanted to ask.

"What's the difference?" Zhou Wen asked.

"If the Companion Beast on the Moon wants to be born, it has to wait until the Tree of Immortality dies. Otherwise, it will never be born. By the same logic, if the Companion Beast on Earth wants to be born, it needs similar conditions. However, up to now, no creature knows what those conditions are," Moon Goddess said.

"Since the Companion Beast is inside the Earth, can't we just dig it out?" Zhou Wen asked the question plaguing him. Earth wasn't difficult to dig.

"A terrifying existence from another dimension tried it before. It was an existence even more terrifying than us, but in the end, Earth still remained intact, but the terrifying existence from the dimension disappeared," Moon Goddess said.

"Is the terrifying existence you mentioned the owner of a ship?" Zhou Wen's heart stirred as he hurriedly asked.

"You actually know of the existence of that ship?" Moon Goddess was slightly surprised.

"Is it really that ship? What kind of creature is the owner of that ship?" Zhou Wen asked.

"I don't know. A ship tore through the sky, causing the ground to split apart and floods to occur. The world was almost destroyed, and then the ship vanished deep into the crevice in the ground. From then on, it never appeared again. No one knows who the owner of the ship is." As the Moon Goddess spoke, she suddenly changed the topic. "Quickly feed Chang'e the Elixir of Immortality. The logger is about to forcefully cut down the Tree of Immortality. Jade Rabbit can't stop him. Only Chang'e's power can."

Zhou Wen turned his head. He couldn't see the logger anymore. However, he could see gorgeous flames burning around the Tree of Immortality. Wounds appeared out of thin air on the Tree of Immortality's body as the wooden splinters that splattered out burned in the air.

The huge Jade Rabbit had held back, afraid it would result in collateral damage on the Tree of Immortality, before it attacked its surroundings with the jade pestle, so it had failed to hit the logger.

Zhou Wen was somewhat afraid when he saw Jade Rabbit's irritable look. He didn't want it to snap the Tree of Immortality.

Zhou Wen knew that if he continued hesitating, the Tree of Immortality might really be chopped down by the logger. Without any hesitation, he threw an Elixir of Immortality at the dark-gold toad that Chang'e had transformed into.

After Chang'e swallowed the Elixir of Immortality, a large amount of cold air immediately surged out of her, causing her body to quickly disappear as she returned to her Terror form.

Following that, Zhou Wen saw an extremely terrifying scene. The cold air that filled the sky surged towards the Tree of Immortality like a tsunami.

Everything that encountered the cold froze immediately. As for the Tree of Immortality, it became more spirited amidst the cold.

The logger's flames were actually suppressed by the cold air upon contact. The range of the flames became smaller and smaller. It looked like Chang'e's power was indeed his nemesis.

Zhou Wen couldn't see the logger or Chang'e, but he could tell that Chang'e had the upper hand from the dissipation of the frost and flames.

He summoned Jade Rabbit back, afraid that it would accidentally injure the Tree of Immortality.

The range of the flames became smaller and smaller. Finally, they were limited to a small area. The logger appeared again as though he could no longer maintain his Terror form.

Logically speaking, the logger was bound to lose if he couldn't even maintain his Terror form, but for some reason, Zhou Wen felt his heart palpitate when he saw Wei Ge's face. He had a nagging feeling that something was about to happen.

Seeing that the infinite cold air had already surged towards the logger, the remaining flames around him extinguished—he was about to be frozen in the cold air.

Faced with the infinite cold, the logger suddenly revealed a strange smile.

In the next second, the overwhelming cold gases completely drowned the logger's figure. Apart from the cold gases, there was no other force. Not even a tiny flame could be seen.

The toad appeared again. At that moment, its entire body was covered in frost, as though it was an ice sculpture. Even without its Terror transformation, it still emitted a terrifying cold aura.

It became obvious how powerful the effects of the Elixir of Immortality were. Even now, the medicinal effects were constantly erupting.

What a pity. I might become a toad after taking the Elixir of Immortality. I don't want to become a second Chang'e. Zhou Wen looked at Chang'e and saw her staring at the logger.

Zhou Wen looked over and saw that after the cold gases dissipated, the logger's body appeared. It had already turned into an ice sculpture and was completely frozen.

However, when he saw the frozen Wei Ge's expression, Zhou Wen felt that something was amiss. There was a smile on his lips that sent chills down his spine.

Crack! Crack!

A tiny shattering sound could be heard using Truth Listener. It left Zhou Wen feeling extremely uneasy.

What was even more shocking was that inside the ice sculpture, the logger's body gradually turned into ice jade. Not only did the cold gases on him fail to injure him, but they also made his strength increase.

"How is this possible! He clearly has fire-elemental powers, and it's a fire-elemental power that has already Terror transformed. How can he suddenly switch to ice?" Ice Maiden was alarmed as she stared at the logger in disbelief.

The toad also wore a solemn expression, but it was also somewhat puzzled. Clearly, it couldn't figure out why the power of the logger had turned into an ice-elemental power.

"Not good." Moon Goddess's voice entered Zhou Wen's ears. Almost at the same time, the ice on the logger's body completely shattered as he regained his freedom.

At that moment, the logger's body suffused extremely terrifying cold gases. They didn't look any weaker than the cold gases emitted by the toad.

"I never expected that I would have to rely on the strength of this human body to redeem the situation." The logger raised his arm and looked at his palm. "Although this body is very weak, his Life Soul is surprisingly interesting. It has the ability to reverse Yin and Yang. Even I benefited greatly from it. I really have to thank him."

"Oh no! The Elixir of Immortality is refined from the Tree of Immortality that has the Yin attribute. It can boost Chang'e's Yin attribute and is very useful against fire-elemental powers. However, now that the logger has switched to the ice attribute, Chang'e's ability to suppress him has greatly weakened. It's impossible to kill or suppress him now. Once the effects of the Elixir of Immortality fade, no one will be able to stop the logger. It looks like the Moon will really be doomed this time." Moon Goddess sighed.

"Is there no other way?" Zhou Wen asked with a frown.

Although he still had two Elixirs of Immortality, they were no longer key to victory. It would be useless even if he was willing to give them both to Chang'e.

"As you can see, Jade Rabbit's strength is excessively ferocious. If we let it stop the logger, I'm afraid the Tree of Immortality will be destroyed by it. That ice demon from the dimension has only just entered the Terror grade. It's too weak, so it's impossible for it to stop the logger." Moon Goddess sighed softly. "The lunar calamity is inevitable. I wonder where my Moon Goddess Temple will go in the future."

Chang'e transformed into her Terror form again as she charged toward the logger. The logger clenched his fist, and the power of frost condensed in his palm, transforming into a frost ax. It then disappeared, transforming into a dazzling ice beam.

Crack! Crack!

Zhou Wen couldn't see the battle between the two Terror creatures, but the Tree of Immortality was riddled with wounds from the ice beams. The damage intensified.

As the Tree of Immortality was injured, the entire Moon began to tremble. Deep ravines appeared on the Moon as they constantly spread. It looked like the end of the world was approaching.

Is the Moon really going to be destroyed? Zhou Wen was alarmed.

"Leave. I'm afraid there won't be a moon from now on." Moon Goddess's voice sounded. Shen Yuchi and Wang Qiuyuan, who had been frozen in front of the Moon Goddess Temple, had also recovered.

However, they had no idea what situation they were in. They looked at the quaking and cracking ground with eyes filled with horror.

If Earth is really like the Moon and is a Companion Egg, if those fellows in the dimension really find a way to bring it to life, then humans... Zhou Wen looked at the Moon that was on the brink of destruction and could already imagine what Earth would look like.

The earth would fracture, volcanoes would erupt, and seawater would drown everything. Humans had nowhere to hide. 99.99% of over 10 billion humans would die in a short period of time.

Perhaps a small number of people could use external forces to escape from Earth, but they would be in the ultra-minority.

Now that the Moon is being destroyed, I can still escape back to Earth. If Earth is destroyed in the future, where can I escape to? Zhou Wen looked solemnly at the Tree of Immortality that was beginning to tilt.

The legendary Tree of Immortality had the ability to recover on its own, but under the power of the logger, the damage to the Tree of Immortality's body didn't automatically heal and was constantly expanding.

"Go. It will be too late for you to leave once the Tree of Immortality falls." Moon Goddess's voice sounded from the Moon Goddess Temple.

Shen Yuchi and Wang Qiuyuan turned around and ran in the direction of the spacecraft. As the Moon had cracked open, many cracks had appeared around Toad Palace and the Moon's crust. There was no need for them to leave through the door.

However, Zhou Wen didn't move. He looked at the Tree of Immortality and asked, "You are the Moon Goddess, the ruler of the Moon. With such powerful strength, why can't you stop him?"

Moon Goddess sighed softly and said, "Because I'm a creature born on the Moon. The logger can disobey the Moon's rules, but I can't. It's ironic. As a creature of the Moon, I can only break free from the restrictions and use my powers as I wish after the Moon shatters."

"Then if you were given a choice, do you want to preserve the Moon, or do you want freedom and strength?" Zhou Wen asked.

"I've lived here for countless years, so I'm too lazy to move." Moon Goddess said with a bitter smile, "From the looks of it, there's nothing I can do even if I don't want to move."

"Then let's give it a shot and see if we can protect the Moon," Zhou Wen said as he took out a calabash. Zhou Wen released the Seven Seas Dragon King. At the same time, he released Grim Demon from the Demonic Sword.

"Grim Demon, no matter what method you use, protect that tree," Zhou Wen said as he pointed at the distant Tree of Immortality.

"I only have one method... That is... to kill..." Grim Demon's eyes were filled with a ruthless killing intent. It transformed into a demonic aura that filled the sky and swept towards the Tree of Immortality.

Grim Demon! So Grim Demon is Zhou Wen's Guardian! Shen Yuchi's heart started racing when he saw Grim Demon.

Grim Demon became famous from a single battle. He had trounced his challenger, and humanity was guessing who he belonged to.

He never expected Grim Demon to be Zhou Wen's Guardian.

It's actually his. In that case, those Mythical Companion Beasts are also Zhou Wen's. They don't belong to any family? Many thoughts flashed through Shen Yuchi's mind as he looked at the distant Zhou Wen with a complicated expression. He gritted his teeth and quickly fled.

Moon Goddess was also somewhat surprised, but her surprise was completely different from Shen Yuchi's.

It wasn't rare to have a Guardian. It was normal for a human like Zhou Wen to be fancied by a Guardian.

However, the Guardian didn't come from Zhou Wen. Instead, it came from Zhou Wen's Companion Beast's sword. Moon Goddess had never heard of a Guardian being attached to a Companion Beast.

Furthermore, this was a Terror-grade Guardian. This was even more shocking.

Grim Demon rushed over and engaged in a crazy battle with the logger. It was the toad that played the supporting role.

Unlike the toad, Grim Demon didn't consider stopping the logger at all. He only wanted to kill his opponent.

He attacked, unleashing crazy attacks.

Zhou Wen could clearly tell that the logger no longer had the energy to chop the tree.

After receiving Zhou Wen's order, the Seven Seas Dragon King also moved. However, it didn't participate in the battle. Instead, it charged at the Tree of Immortality and spewed the glue-like liquid at its damaged spots.

As the power of the logger was special, it seemed to have a restraining effect on the Tree of Immortality, making it difficult for the wound to automatically heal.

Zhou Wen didn't have powerful Companion Beasts that could heal the Tree of Immortality's damage in a short period of time. Therefore, he got the Seven Seas Dragon King to use glue to cover the damaged spots.

Even if the logger extricated himself from Grim Demon and the toad and wanted to chop the tree again, he had to either destroy the glue or chop from another angle. Either choice could buy a lot of time for the Tree of Immortality.

Of course, Zhou Wen didn't believe that the glue could really ward off the logger. This was because the Seven Seas Dragon King's ability was actually restrained by ice and fire-elemental powers.

This was also the reason Zhou Wen didn't get the Seven Seas Dragon King to participate in the battle. It was restrained by the logger, so it had little effect.

Grim Demon had already become the main force in the battle against the logger, and Chang'e's role was gradually diminishing.

Jade Rabbit also wanted to help, but its body was too big. With one strike, it nearly sent Grim Demon flying. With it attacking the logger together with Grim Demon, not only did it fail to gain the upper hand, but it nearly injured Grim Demon a few times. Zhou Wen had no choice but to summon it back.

Jade Rabbit crouched by the side with an aggrieved look, as though it knew that it had done something wrong.

Zhou Wen didn't have the ability to participate in the battle so he picked up some fallen petals and put them away. They might be useful in the future.

Bam!

With a loud bang, the toad was sent flying. It slammed into the trunk of the Tree of Immortality and spat out large amounts of blood.

The ax wounds on its body crisscrossed and it was powerless to enter its Terror firm. It didn't look like it had the ability to continue fighting.

On the other hand, Grim Demon was surprisingly resilient. He wasn't at a disadvantage even when fighting the logger alone.

What Grim Demon said in the past might not have been bragging. His combat strength is indeed off the charts, Zhou Wen thought to himself. If he's really as powerful as he says but is so humble in front of Neonate, what's Neonate's background?

Demonic Neonate had too many secrets. Before she had been absorbed by the Dead Man Tree, Zhou Wen couldn't even tell if she was a dimensional creature or a human. She was a unique existence.

Just as Zhou Wen was pondering over it, he saw a change in the situation. Without Chang'e's participation in the battle, the logger switched his stats to fire.

Terrifying flames spewed out, turning into a sea of flames which enveloped a large area near the Tree of Immortality. Its leaves and petals, as well as its trunk, immediately burned upon contact with the flames.

Grim Demon had powerful combat strength, but he wasn't good at protecting others. He only wanted to kill the logger before the Tree of Immortality was burned down.

However, the logger's strength was equally unfathomable. Grim Demon failed to gain the upper hand.

Just as the Tree of Immortality was on the brink of incineration, the Moon's tremors intensified. Zhou Wen was momentarily at a loss as to how he could resolve his present predicament.

Just as Zhou Wen was hesitating about whether he should use the Ice Dragon King's Tooth to see if he could extinguish the flames on the Tree of Immortality, he suddenly felt a strange force and thought coming from his body.

Banana Fairy's evolution is complete! Zhou Wen was immediately overjoyed when he sensed her will.

Chapter 1073: A Cool Breeze

Translator: CKtalon

Zhou Wen was near the Moon Goddess Temple. With the Moon Goddess around, the logger didn't dare enter the area.

However, the Tree of Immortality was being consumed by the flames. If he didn't save it, it would probably be charred in a few hours.

Huge cracks constantly appeared on the Moon's surface. This was clearly a sign that the Companion Beast inside was about to appear.

Zhou Wen didn't have the time to see the changes in Banana Fairy's stats. He summoned her immediately.

With a flash of light, a young woman wearing a white veil was sitting on a banana leaf that resembled a boat. Her snow-white feet were swaying playfully.

Her face was beautifully delicate, but her figure was petite. As the banana leaf floated in the air, she looked like a fairy.

"Little Fairy, can you help me extinguish the flames on that tree?" Zhou Wen pointed at the flames on the Tree of Immortality.

Banana Fairy blinked and looked in the direction of the Tree of Immortality. Then, she opened her red lips and spat out a cool breeze.

Zhou Wen was filled with anticipation. Banana Fairy's Supreme Yin Wind was known as the Three Realms' Best Wind. Furthermore, it was Yin-elemental. It should have an extremely powerful restraining effect on flames.

With the help of the Supreme Yin Wind, he might have a chance of defeating the logger.

A cool breeze silently blew into the darkness.

The wind that blew out of Banana Fairy's mouth was just too weak.

"Little Fairy, use more strength!" Zhou Wen was somewhat anxious. After all, the other party was a top existence at the Terror grade. He didn't know if Banana Fairy's casual blow would be effective.

However, in the next second, Zhou Wen's mouth gaped open.

The cool wind that looked like a breeze immediately extinguished the flames and demonic aura when it came into contact with them. As for the demonic aura, it dissipated.

In an instant, the demonic aura that had filled the area vanished without a trace. The terrifying fire was also extinguished. Not even a wisp of smoke remained as though the fire had never existed.

Bam! Bam!

Grim Demon and the logger slammed into the trunk of the Tree of Immortality, but they didn't fall. Their limbs stuck to the trunk, unable to move in the wind. The muscles on their faces were distorted by the wind, and frost formed on their brows and hair.

If not for the Tree of Immortality, they would have been blown into space.

Zhou Wen was at a loss for words. After a long while, he exclaimed, "Holy sh*t! Isn't this a little too strong?"

Only when this gust of wind passed did Grim Demon and the logger fall from the tree trunk. They failed to get up immediately.

"Supreme Yin Wind!" Moon Goddess's voice was somewhat odd.

She was Lady Supreme Yin, so she was naturally no stranger to the Supreme Yin Wind. She immediately recognized it.

However, she found it unbelievable that a Companion Beast could use the Supreme Yin Wind, and this Companion Beast was Zhou Wen's.

The logger changed his stats again, turning from fire to ice. He condensed an ice ax and threw it at Banana Fairy.

The ice ax vanished in midair. All that could be seen was ice swirling over.

Banana Fairy sat on the banana leaf without dodging. She pouted her red lips and blew out another mouthful of fragrance.

However, the wind this time wasn't as cool as before. Instead, it was scorching.

When the fragrant wind encountered the power of the ice ax, blazing white flames appeared out of thin air. Instantly, the ice ax completely melted. From ice to water, then from water to steam, it finally turned into nothingness in the blink of an eye.

The strong wind swept over with flames and devoured the logger's body. It instantly melted the ice aura and his body immediately burned.

"Ah!"

"We're on the same side... We're on the same side..." Another tragic cry sounded. It was Grim Demon, who had just gotten up and was standing not far from the logger. He was implicated as his demonic aura caught fire, turning him into a flaming man.

Banana Fairy's wind was good at everything, but its area was just too wide. It didn't distinguish between friend and foe, causing Grim Demon to be implicated.

"Supreme Yang Wind!" Moon Goddess was even more bewildered.

Supreme Yin and Supreme Yang were two conflicting attributes, and they were two extremes. A Companion Beast actually had the ability to control Supreme Yin Wind and Supreme Yang Wind at the same time. This was just too terrifying.

If she can advance to the Calamity grade... Moon Goddess didn't dare imagine such a scene. Just with one gust of the wind, even Earth would probably suffer an apocalyptic end, much less the Moon.

"Ahem... Little Fairy... That's one of us..." Zhou Wen hurriedly helped Grim Demon resolve the situation.

It was unknown what kind of fire Banana Fairy's flames were, but Grim Demon failed to extinguish the flames on his body. He cried out from the heat.

Banana Fairy blew out another gust of wind. This time, it was the Supreme Yin Wind. As the breeze brushed past, the flames on Grim Demon's body immediately extinguished.

Just as the logger turned into the fire attribute and wanted to absorb the flames on his body, the flames on his body were extinguished by the Supreme Yin Wind. Then, she saw Grim Demon and the logger fly out together.

Bam! Bam!

They slammed into the Tree of Immortality again and had their limbs plastered to the tree trunk. After the Supreme Yin Wind blew, they fell again.

Grim Demon didn't dare continue staying there. He could tell that this unknown Companion Beast was a destroyer who didn't distinguish between friend and foe. She was even more unscrupulous than himself. If he stayed, due to her whims, it might be the end of him.

The logger struggled to get up after falling from the tree, but he suddenly held his chest. His chest seemed to have been pierced by an invisible sword.

Blood flowed down the invisible sword hilt and dripped onto the ground.

The logger wanted to pull out the Demonic Sword, but he felt his strength rapidly disappearing. He knew that he had no chance of fighting again.

"I've waited for countless years. I never expected such an outcome." The logger sat under the Tree of Immortality and looked up at the osmanthus petals dancing in the sky. However, there wasn't much anger or hatred on his face.

He extended his hand and caught a petal. He held it in his palm and stared at it, but his gaze wasn't focused on the petal. It was as though his emotions had flown elsewhere.

"Back then, I was focused on cultivating and attempted to escape my mortal coils. Instead, I neglected the most important person... This can be considered my retribution... Sorry for making you wait so long... I'll be accompanying you soon..." As the logger spoke, he slowly looked up and his gaze landed on the distant Zhou Wen.

Don't tell me he wants to self-destruct and drag me down with him? Zhou Wen subconsciously took a few steps back.

To his surprise, the logger said, "Do you have anyone you want to protect?"

"If not, I wouldn't have stopped you," Zhou Wen said.

"That's good. Be careful of those fellows in the dimension. Don't believe their so-called rules." The logger nodded before closing his eyes. "Unfortunately, I won't be able to see the day you cut down the Tree of Immortality."

Chapter 1074: Birth from Extreme Death

"What do you mean?" Zhou Wen was just about to ask when he saw that the logger had stopped moving. There were no longer any signs of life—he was probably dead.

Why don't you make yourself clear before you die! Zhou Wen was somewhat depressed. However, from the looks of it, the logger didn't seem to have any intention of saying anything else. Otherwise, he would have said it before he died.

However, it was difficult to guess what the logger had meant.

There were many interpretations for this sentence. Perhaps it was because Zhou Wen couldn't resist the temptation and wanted to obtain the Companion Beast on the Moon, so he had come to chop down the Tree of Immortality.

It could also be that there was some secret beneath the Tree of Immortality. In the future, Zhou Wen would have to chop down the Tree of Immortality to find out the secret.

There were too many possibilities. It was also possible that the logger had said it casually to deliberately arouse Zhou Wen's curiosity.

Zhou Wen wasn't in the mood to continue guessing. At the very least, from the looks of it, the Moon's continued existence was better than it being destroyed.

As he walked towards the logger, Zhou Wen planned on bringing his corpse back. After all, this body belonged to Wei Ge. At the very least, he could return his body to his family in one piece.

When he arrived in front of the corpse, Zhou Wen extended his hands and placed them under the corpse's armpits. Just as he was about to lift the corpse up, he suddenly saw the eyes widen.

Zhou Wen's reaction was extremely fast as he instantly made a decision. If he retreated, he would have fallen for the logger's scheme. Therefore, Zhou Wen did the opposite. Instead of retreating, he advanced and pressed his body against the logger's body. His hands passed through his armpits before grabbing his neck. He wanted to use force to snap his neck.

"It's... It's me... Don't... Cough, cough..." The logger said a few words before his neck was pressed down by a powerful force, preventing him from saying a word.

Zhou Wen couldn't help but slow down when he heard those words. He didn't continue.

This was because the pitch and tone of the words didn't sound like the logger's. Instead, they sounded like Wei Ge's.

"President Wei?" Zhou Wen released his hand and retreated as he looked at Wei Ge in disbelief.

If it was the logger, he would have killed him, but it also seemed impossible for it to be Wei Ge.

Be it Wei Ge's consciousness controlling the body or the logger's consciousness controlling the body, the injuries this body suffered were fatal. It was useless no matter whose consciousness it was. If the body died, the consciousness could only perish.

The wound on Wei Ge's chest was still there. His heart had been pierced through. The logger was dead, so how could Wei Ge still be alive?

"It's me." Wei Ge looked down at the wound on his chest and said with a grimace, "I don't have much time left. Quickly think of a way to save me. Think of a way to stabilize my injuries first. Just don't let me die."

"Are you really President Wei?" Zhou Wen looked at Wei Ge suspiciously. He was somewhat suspicious that the logger wasn't dead and was trying to trick Zhou Wen into treating him.

"Do you still remember when I went to look for you after graduation? We even chatted a little. Do you remember the sentence about 'barely defeat the heavens?'" Wei Ge said.

"The logger has occupied the body, so he might have absorbed your memories..." Zhou Wen looked at Wei Ge warily.

Wei Ge didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "My dear junior, I'm really Wei Ge. Previously, I recognized that the bone pottery artifact was a sacrificial offering to invite a deity's descent. I knew that I might be possessed by some kind of spiritual body. Furthermore, I also knew that Shen Yuchi would most likely make me a sacrifice. Therefore, it was better to take the initiative to touch the bone pottery artifact."

"My Life Providence is Birth from Extreme Death. It's too troublesome to explain. To put it simply, after my body dies, I can still exist in a living-dead state for a period of time. If I heal my body during this period of time, I can still live. I can't hold on much longer. If you don't treat my injuries, I'll really die..." Wei Ge said gloomily.

Zhou Wen saw that his tone and demeanor were indeed different from the logger's. He believed him a little.

This was because Zhou Wen had previously determined that Wei Ge might know the origins of the bone pottery artifact, so he had taken the initiative to take it. He definitely had some means.

Previously, Zhou Wen had believed that Wei Ge's judgment was wrong, so his means had failed to take effect and he had ended up dying tragically.

Without much hesitation, Zhou Wen switched to the Primordial Human Sovereign Life Soul and threw a punch at Wei Ge's wound.

The fist blasted into Wei Ge's heart, but when it pulled out, the wound on his heart healed significantly.

Berserk punches came one after another. Under the strange force, the fatal blow to Wei Ge's heart miraculously healed completely. There was no longer any wound on his chest.

However, due to the excessive blood loss, Wei Ge's body was still on the brink of failure.

Zhou Wen summoned a few more pill essences like the Rejuvenation Pill and got Wei Ge to swallow them. Only then did his body recover its vitality. As for the glow in Wei Ge's eyes, it grew stronger and stronger. Soon, he was back to being a healthy person.

"Zhou Wen, I'll have to thank you for your help. Otherwise, I would have really died here," Wei Ge said as he stood up.

"If the logger hadn't died, would you have been able to retrieve your body?" Zhou Wen asked Wei Ge.

"No." Wei Ge shook his head.

"If I hadn't treated your injuries, would you have lived?" Zhou Wen asked again.

"No." Wei Ge shook his head again.

"Then why did you make such a bet?" Zhou Wen felt that the conditions for survival were too harsh. If he wasn't here, Wei Ge would definitely be dead.

"As there are benefits that are hundreds or even thousands of times greater, it was worth taking the risk. The logger used my body and died in my body. The wealth he left behind for this body is unimaginable. It was worth betting my life." Wei Ge smiled and continued, "Of course, there's another important reason why I was willing to take the bet."

"What was it?" Zhou Wen asked.

"Because you are here," Wei Ge said solemnly.

"You think too highly of me." Zhou Wen shook his head and smiled bitterly.

...

When Zhou Wen and company were on the Moon, the ranking battle on Earth continued. Ya constantly faced challenges from different Guardians and had yet to be defeated.

However, Ya's various abilities were constantly probed by the Guardians. Furthermore, the opponents that appeared were getting stronger. His victories became increasingly hard-won, but he still hadn't lost.

In Forbidden City that was enveloped by fog, a distorted figure descended from the void. The figure was very similar to the figure that had changed the cube's battle rules twice. Or rather, it was the same creature.

The figure floated in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony. The door to the Hall of Supreme Harmony seemed to be opened automatically by some invisible force. In the hall, there was a log lying flat.

"Polestar, why haven't you chosen a contractor yet?" An ethereal voice sounded from the figure made of light and shadows.

"That's my business. What has it got to do with you?" A cold woman's voice sounded from the log.

Chapter 1075: True Terror Grade

Translator: CKtalon

"As a Guardian, you should know your mission," the figure said as it looked down at the log in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

"My mission has long ended. Don't you already have a new Guardian? Why are you still looking for me?" The woman in the log snorted coldly.

"It hasn't been long since the new Guardian came into existence. It hasn't grown to a sufficiently strong stage. It's not enough to vie for first place," said the figure.

"What has that got to do with me?" The woman's voice was cold and heartless.

"If you defeat Ya, you can return to the dimension and obtain a good status," the figure said.

The woman suddenly laughed, her laughter filled with mockery. "Aren't you all known to be omnipotent high-level lifeforms? Can't you even deal with a fellow who's half human and half Guardian?"

"After you return to the dimension, you can dominate a region." There was no change in the figure's voice.

"Not interested," the woman said without hesitation.

"A divine fruit," the figure continued.

"Keep it for yourself," the woman mocked.

"Ten." The figure remained emotionless.

"Are you that afraid of Ya getting first place?" The woman didn't reject his offer immediately this time.

"He's not a Guardian. There's already one Wang Mingyuan. There's no need for a second or third one. The Lord of Earth has to be a Guardian," the figure said.

"The King of Earth can't even have half a human's bloodline? How ironic. Humans are the original owners of Earth."

"What can make you take action?" asked the figure.

"I haven't found a suitable contractor. I don't plan on taking action." The woman actually rejected the figure again.

"You aren't the only Guardian who survived that era. If they were to obtain ten divine fruits, you should know what that will imply." There was finally some emotion in the figure's voice. One could clearly sense that his tone had turned cold.

"So what if I know?" the woman said indifferently.

"As long as you defeat an ordinary Mythical creature, you can obtain ten divine fruits. It's impossible for such a good thing to happen a second time. Don't regret it." The figure regained its calm.

"Nothing can make me, Empress Polestar, regret it," the woman said.

The figure didn't say anything else as it gradually vanished into the void. Finally, it completely vanished.

After Empress Polestar sensed that the light figure had vanished, she muttered to herself, "An ordinary Mythical? I'm afraid it's not that simple. Otherwise, why would you come looking for me?"

...

On the Moon, Zhou Wen was sitting in front of a huge cube.

After saving Wei Ge, Zhou Wen had originally planned on punishing Shen Yuchi, but Wei Ge convinced him otherwise.

In fact, Wei Ge didn't say much. All he did was tell Zhou Wen, "Leave him alive. With me around, the bureau will be your eyes and ears in the future."

With Wei Ge's words, Zhou Wen didn't seek trouble with Shen Yuchi again. He got the Great Might Vajra Bull to take Wei Ge back to the spacecraft while he remained on the Moon.

Zhou Wen had originally planned on using Glimmer to teleport back. He didn't need to take the spacecraft back, so he got Wei Ge to return with them.

As for how Wei Ge would subdue Shen Yuchi and the bureau, Zhou Wen didn't wish to know. Even if Wei Ge didn't succeed, Zhou Wen already had the strength necessary to destroy the bureau at any time.

However, before returning to Earth, Zhou Wen still wanted to obtain more petals of the Tree of Immortality.

However, the Moon Goddess had told him that the Tree of Immortality was severely injured. It was best not to pluck its petals and wait for it to recover.

Zhou Wen had no choice but to pick up the petals that had fallen nearby. He didn't touch the petals on the tree again. He knew the principle of economizing to ensure long-term benefits.

After touring the Moon, he realized that there was a cube here. Zhou Wen watched several battles here, all between Ya and the Guardian.

A battle at this level can't even withstand a single breath from my Little Fairy. Every time Zhou Wen made a comparison, he felt that Banana Fairy was much stronger. Typical Mythical and Terror-grade creatures couldn't compare.

Banana Fairy: Terror (Evolvable)

Life Providence: Yin Yang Spirit Root

Life Soul: Fairy in the Wind

Wheel of Destiny: Three Realms' Best Wind

Terror form: Apeiron Perfected Immortal (S-grade)

Strength: 82

Speed: 82

Constitution: 82

Essence Energy: 82

Talent Skill: Supreme Yin Wind, Supreme Yang Wind, Immeasurable Wind.

Companion Form: Fan

Banana Fairy's evolution was very strange. This was because ordinary creatures wouldn't change their Life Providences or Life Souls. However, with Banana Fairy's evolution, even her Life Soul and Life Providences had changed. This was a phenomenon Zhou Wen had never seen before.

Furthermore, she was different from Demonic Neonate. Demonic Neonate was still at the Mythical stage, but she had the ability to transform into a Terror form. Zhou Wen originally believed that the Terror grade was only a state of the Mythical stage.

However, from the looks of it, above the Mythical stage was the Terror grade, not just a state. Banana Fairy was a true Terror grade. Demonic Neonate hadn't truly reached the Terror grade, but for some reason, she had the ability to transform into a Terror form.

Zhou Wen guessed that it had something to do with her Wheel of Destiny, but he couldn't be sure.

Then there was Banana Fairy's stats. Although she had broken through the limits of the Mythical stage of 81 points, she didn't directly reach a certain value like before. All her stats had only increased by a little.

Zhou Wen suspected that after achieving the Terror grade, Banana Fairy might need to slowly raise her stats like humans. As for the limit of the Terror grade, Zhou Wen wasn't sure.

According to the previous standards, the limit should be double the previous stage, but this was only speculation.

As for how powerful Banana Fairy's Terror Transformation ability was, Zhou Wen had no idea. This was because once Banana Fairy completely transformed into her Terror form, even Zhou Wen—as her master—couldn't see her.

The only thing he was certain of was that Banana Fairy was very strong.

As he was pondering over it, he saw the cube light up again. Another Guardian had challenged Ya. However, the name that challenged Ya this time made Zhou Wen's pupils involuntarily contract.

Night Thearch... He has finally joined the battle... Zhou Wen was somewhat worried. Zhong Ziya might not know that Night Thearch was at the Terror grade. If Zhong Ziya ended up trapped in Night Thearch's Evernight domain without being aware of it, he might end up being killed without even having the chance to surrender.

After all, only the Terror grade could defeat the Terror grade. Zhong Ziya and Primordial Sword Immortal had yet to reach the Terror grade.

Zhong Ziya quickly accepted the challenge, making Zhou Wen even more worried. From the looks of it, Zhong Ziya likely didn't know of Night Thearch's existence.

Night Thearch entered the cube's arena and stood in midair as he stared at Zhong Ziya and said, "I don't want to kill you, so you should admit defeat yourself."

Zhong Ziya looked up at Night Thearch. No one could see his expression behind the mask, but Zhong Ziya's words made Zhou Wen secretly heave a sigh of relief.

"I'm more interested to know how strong the Terror grade is." Zhong Ziya slowly pulled out Primordial Immortal Sword.

"To me, you are a work of art. Don't give me the chance to personally destroy you," Night Thearch said.

"Compared to being a work of art, I want to be a tool without any beauty," Zhong Ziya said.

"Since you insist on fighting, then attack," Night Thearch said calmly.

"I had the same thought," Zhong Ziya said as he fused with his sword and transformed into a stream of light that streaked towards Night Thearch.

Zhong Ziya's sword techniques and movement techniques were already at the Mythical stage and weren't inferior to Zhou Wen's. In fact, due to the augmentation of his Mythical attributes, he was even stronger than Zhou Wen.

However, no matter how terrifying the Primordial Immortal Sword in his hand was, it couldn't touch Night Thearch's clothes. Night Thearch was like a ghost, his figure unpredictable. Zhong Ziya's sword was always three inches away from him, so he couldn't hit him.

"It's really perfect. You're better than I imagined." Night Thearch praised as he dodged Zhong Ziya's sword.

Others might think that Night Thearch was mocking Zhong Ziya, but Zhou Wen knew that Night Thearch didn't have any intention of mocking him. Those words were most likely heartfelt.

Night Thearch was just too odd. He could kill ten million people without any guilt. It could be said that he was a true devil.

However, he especially indulged those humans with excellent talent. Even though Zhou Wen was his enemy and had nearly killed him, Night Thearch didn't take any revenge.

Zhou Wen couldn't completely understand his mentality. He felt that he was a strange person that couldn't be fathomed.

"Your sword is very determined. This is very good, but it's still not good enough," Night Thearch continued.

"How is it not good enough?" Zhong Ziya's sword streaked across Night Thearch's face, almost touching him, but he ultimately failed to touch Night Thearch.

"It's not focused enough." Night Thearch flashed past Zhong Ziya like a ghost.

"My sword has no distracting thoughts." Zhong Ziya turned the Primordial Immortal Sword in his hand and stabbed in a direction that had nothing but thin air. Night Thearch was not there.

In the next second, the space around the area changed. The two of them seemed to have been swapped. Zhong Ziya's seemingly missed strike stabbed right in front of Night Thearch.

"Just because there aren't any distracting thoughts doesn't mean that one is sufficiently focused." Night Thearch's body was similar to the dawn-like darkness as he silently retreated. That strange strike kept advancing in front of his nose, but it was like the light of dawn which couldn't touch the night sky. It was forever a distance away from Night Thearch.

As he fought, Night Thearch said, "Your sword is too sentimental. It can't be devoted. If you want to use a sword, you have to be devoted to the sword. If you want to kill someone, you have to devote all your attention to the process of killing. You have too many emotions in your heart, so it's inevitable that you will be distracted. That's why you can't focus."

"I don't believe that there's anyone in this world who can be absolutely focused." Zhong Ziya constantly attacked, his sword techniques and skills changing.

One after another, his illusory clones charged at Night Thearch from all directions, but Night Thearch dodged them again and again.

"Indeed not, but I've seen one who came extremely close. He's more heartless than you and closer to a focused state than you. However, you aren't bad either. If you can turn emotions into extreme emotions, you might surpass him," Night Thearch said.

"I think I know who you're talking about. He's indeed very strong." Zhong Ziya suddenly threw out the sword in his hand. Primordial Immortal Sword split into millions of identical ones in the air and rained down on Night Thearch.

However, Night Thearch stood there without moving. He allowed the millions of ancient swords to pass through his body, but none of the swords could injure him.

He didn't take on his Terror form. The swords didn't injure him. Not because of the power of the Terror transformation; instead, it was because the swords were only illusions that didn't really exist.

"He also has his flaws. Compared to you, he's too conservative and can't accept new powers. This is a fatal flaw. Therefore, in comparison, I think more highly of you. You have a chance to improve further." Night Thearch suddenly made a move. His two fingers grabbed the real Primordial Immortal Sword amidst the millions of illusory Primordial Immortal Swords.

The Primordial Immortal Sword trembled and hummed between his fingers, but it couldn't move at all.

"Leave. Your time hasn't come yet. I'm looking forward to the arrival of that era." Night Thearch casually waved his hand, and Primordial Immortal Sword flew back and entered the scabbard in Zhong Ziya's other hand.

This battle dazzled everyone. Everyone was shocked by Night Thearch's strength.

Ya, who had been undefeated and almost invincible, seemed to have been easily suppressed in front of Night Thearch.

"Time waits for no man." Zhong Ziya had no intention of retreating.

"I didn't want to kill you before, much less now. However, you have to leave this place," Night Thearch said with a frown.

"Before I get first place, I definitely won't die, nor will I leave," Zhong Ziya said firmly.

"Is there something more important than death?" Night Thearch asked.

"Yes," Zhong Ziya answered with certainty.

"Then let me see if you have the qualifications to stay." As Night Thearch spoke, he took a step forward. In that instant, the entire arena turned into an eternal night.

The cube's big screen turned pitch-black, and nothing could be seen. Only the sound of armor tearing could be heard.

In the blink of an eye, the arena lit up again.

Night Thearch had already returned to his original spot, and Ya was still there. However, many wounds had opened up on his cloak and armor. Blood was constantly flowing out, dyeing his armor red.

"Go back," Night Thearch said.

"Thank you," Zhong Ziya suddenly said.

Before Night Thearch could figure out what Zhong Ziya meant by 'thank you', he saw that the wound on Zhong Ziya's body was no longer bleeding, but effusing light.

The light was corroding his body, gradually turning his flesh and blood into light.

"Terror form..." Night Thearch looked at Zhong Ziya in surprise. Clearly, Zhong Ziya was transforming into his Terror form.

"Kill him." A voice entered Night Thearch's mind.

Night Thearch looked at the Terror-form Zhong Ziya and knew that this was a critical moment for his advancement. This was the best opportunity to kill him. Once he completed the Terror transformation, it wouldn't be so easy to kill him.

However, Night Thearch only stood there and watched without any intention of attacking.

"I said kill him. Didn't you hear me?" The voice entered Night Thearch's mind again.

Night Thearch remained unmoved as though he hadn't heard anything.

"Do you know the consequences of violating our agreement?" The voice was already somewhat angry.

"I, Night Thearch, never care about consequences," Night Thearch said indifferently.

In the dimension, a distorted figure of light and shadow roared angrily. Terror-grade force crushed everything nearby into powder, but it was still unable to vent the anger in his heart.

Before long, Ya's body completely transformed into light. On the cube's screen, only a humanoid figure could be seen. If he moved slightly, the dazzling light would change, preventing anyone from seeing his appearance.

Instead, because Primordial Immortal Sword had yet to reach the Terror grade, it remained in Ya's hand.

"The Guardian you fused with was already at the Terror grade?" Night Thearch asked as he admired Zhong Ziya who had transformed into the Terror form.

"Yes," Zhong Ziya answered.

"With your strength, it should be impossible for you to absorb such a Guardian. How did you do it?" Night Thearch continued asking.

"A betting contract," Zhong Ziya answered.

Others might not understand what a betting contract was, but Night Thearch knew very well. When he heard that, he asked with a heavy expression, "What did you bet with him?"

"First on the rankings," Zhong Ziya answered.

Night Thearch laughed. "Do you know how difficult this path is? It's impossible for the alien races in all the worlds to let even half a human become the final victor."

"Only with difficulty will there be fun." Zhong Ziya's hand that held the sword glowed brightly. The Primordial Immortal Sword and scabbard in his hand slowly lit up before finally turning into a body of light.

"Interesting. Then let me see if you have the qualifications to walk to the end." Night Thearch took a step forward and Evernight descended on the arena again, turning everything into darkness.

All the humans in the world felt extremely uncomfortable. It was like watching a boring crappy movie in a movie theater. After enduring it for an hour and finally seeing a beautiful woman about to take a bath, the screen suddenly turned black. Only the sound of water splashing could be heard. It was so uncomfortable that it made one want to go crazy.

Zhou Wen didn't feel good either because he couldn't see what was happening inside.

However, this state didn't last long. Soon, a point of light appeared on the dark screen. The point of light became brighter and brighter before it lit up the dark area like a volcanic eruption.

In the end, the light was just too powerful. It made it impossible to look straight at it. It was so blinding that one couldn't even open their eyes.

When the light faded, the cube's screen finally returned to normal. Ya and Night Thearch's figures appeared. The two of them looked at each other from afar as though nothing had happened.

"Who won?"

"I don't know. I didn't see anything at all."

"It's too terrifying. We can't even see a battle at that level. If such experts want to slaughter humans, we won't even have the chance to resist."

...

Everyone discussed spiritedly as Zhou Wen wore a puzzled look. He didn't know who had won or lost.

"I hope you can walk to the end." After Night Thearch said that, he turned around and vanished into the night.

"I will," Zhong Ziya answered.

The cube's screen went black before returning to the rankings. Ya remained in first place. Night Thearch didn't appear on the rankings, so it was obvious that Ya had won again.

After Ya won this time, the Guardians didn't swarm over to challenge him like before. There wasn't even one challenger.

This was because the Guardians knew very well that only a Terror grade could defeat a Terror grade. If they were to challenge him again, it wouldn't be a challenge, but suicide.

There are less than forty hours left on the countdown. If this continues, Ya should have a chance of getting first, right? Zhou Wen muttered to himself.

"It's impossible for him to obtain first place." A palm-sized humanoid puppet walked over, but the sound emitted by the puppet belonged to Moon Goddess.

"Why not? He's already at the Terror grade. Even if he encounters other Terror grades, he should have a good chance of winning, right?" Zhou Wen didn't know why Moon Goddess was so certain that Zhong Ziya wouldn't come in first.

"Just as Night Thearch said, it's impossible for the dimension to let even half a human obtain first place," Moon Goddess answered.

Zhou Wen pondered for a moment and said, "If humans obtain first place, it means that no dimensional race can obtain control of Earth for a year. I can understand that. However, Ya can only be considered half human. If he wins, doesn't it mean that the race of the Guardian that fused with Ya won? Why can't they accept that?"

"If he is not of our kin, he is sure to have a different mind. It's the same for dimensional creatures. If Ya finds the strongest Companion Beast in this year, do you think he will hand it over to the dimensional creatures?" Moon Goddess paused before continuing, "Most importantly, that Dimensional Wheel can't be handed over to a creature with human blood. Otherwise, even if those dimensional experts personally descend, it's impossible for them to defeat a human with a Dimensional Wheel in this world."

"The Dimensional Wheel is created by dimensional creatures. Could it be that they can't deal with it?" Zhou Wen asked suspiciously.

"Who told you that the Dimensional Wheel was created by dimensional creatures?" Moon Goddess asked.

"Isn't that so?" Zhou Wen was slightly taken aback.

"Of course not. The so-called Dimensional Wheel is actually a Companion Beast," said Moon Goddess.

"Companion Beast? What level is it?" Zhou Wen was somewhat puzzled.

"It's hard to say what level it is, but the owner of that Companion Beast was the person who had the strongest Guardian in that horrific era. In that era, they fought countless powerful opponents in the world and ultimately obtained first place. That Dimensional Wheel played a role of inestimable proportions."

Moon Goddess paused for a moment before continuing, "After all, Guardians in that era weren't as weak as they are now. This is because the Battle of Guardians took a long time. All the Guardians had enough time to become stronger. Furthermore, in that era, the various races of the dimension had just reached an agreement. The regulations weren't too strict. Many terrifying dimensional creatures descended and secretly controlled the Battle of Guardians. The expert who could defeat all his opponents in that era and stand at the peak of the world was an unimaginably powerful existence."

"Which era is the horrific era you speak of? Who's the Guardian who obtained first place? Who's his contractor?" Zhou Wen was puzzled.

"That human's name is Xuan Yuan. The Guardian's name is Mystic Thearch," Moon Goddess answered.

"Xuan Yuan! Could it be Yellow Emperor!? Then, is Chiyou among his opponents?" Zhou Wen was alarmed as he hurriedly asked.

"There was indeed such a person. He was also an existence that was very likely to win first place at that time. His Guardian was the Weapon Lord. I still remember that if Xuan Yuan hadn't taken the Dimensional Wheel back then, the human who clinched final victory in that horrifying era might have been Chiyou," Moon Goddess said.

"What do you mean? Didn't you say that the Dimensional Wheel is Yellow Emperor's Companion Beast?" Zhou Wen was even more puzzled when he heard that.

"That's right. Yellow Emperor picked up the Dimensional Wheel Companion Egg, so the Dimensional Wheel naturally became his Companion Beast. However, Chiyou originally had a chance of obtaining the Dimensional Wheel Companion Egg. No, it should be said that the dimensional wheel originally belonged to Chiyou and Weapon Lord," Moon Goddess said after some thought.

Chapter 1078: Betting Contract

Translator: CKtalon

Moon Goddess had been born on the Moon, so she didn't know much about Earth. All she could see were some of the major things that had happened on Earth. It had to be a sufficiently large commotion for her to see a thing or two.

Just like how the ship had flown out of thin air back then, Moon Goddess could see such a huge matter clearly from the Moon.

Originally, the battle between Chiyou and Yellow Emperor wasn't enough for the Moon Goddess to observe. However, a huge meteorite had slammed into Earth. If Earth had been hit, most of the creatures would have been wiped out.

Moon Goddess didn't know what the experts on Earth had done. However, Chiyou had worn the Weapon Lord Armor and destroyed the meteorite.

The Dimensional Wheel Companion Egg had flown out from the shattered meteorite. However, Chiyou and the Weapon Lord were exhausted of their strength after destroying the meteorite. It was picked up by another human and Guardian. They were naturally Yellow Emperor and Mystic Thearch.

There's actually such a thing! Zhou Wen was taken aback when he heard that. He didn't know if Moon Goddess was telling the truth.

However, Moon Goddess' knowledge was very limited. She didn't say it clearly because there was no such thing as the black cubes in that era. The experts directly fought on Earth. Only when the combat energy exceeded a certain threshold could Moon Goddess observe it.

Moon Goddess had observed the Dimensional Wheel's energy explosion many times. It was likely the key to Yellow Emperor's victory.

"That's not right. Since the Dimensional Wheel is Yellow Emperor's Companion Beast, it should have died with him. Why did it end up in the hands of the dimensional creatures?" Zhou Wen thought of a terrifying question.

"That's not something I can know." The puppet controlled by Moon Goddess shook its head.

As the two of them spoke, the black cube lit up again. Another person issued a challenge, and the person being challenged was still Ya.

To dare challenge at this time, the challenger must be extraordinary. They must be at the Terror grade, right? Zhou Wen looked at the challenger's name.

However, the name was very unfamiliar. It was a Guardian named Cave Era.

Not long after, Zhong Ziya accepted the challenge and appeared in the cube's arena again.

Zhou Wen carefully sized up Cave Era that had entered the arena. He saw a human wearing gray armor. The armor covered her entire body, so he could only tell that it was a woman's figure. However, he didn't know what kind of human she was or what she looked like. He didn't know if she was young or old.

"Is this a former Guardian?" Zhou Wen asked the Moon Goddess puppet.

In recent years, very few Guardians had advanced to the Terror grade. As long as they were at the Terror grade, there was a high chance that they were former Guardians who had survived.

"I don't know." Moon Goddess's answer left Zhou Wen somewhat depressed.

Zhong Ziya didn't care who his opponent was. He immediately entered his Terror form and transformed into a beam of light that slashed at Cave Era.

Cave Era's figure vanished in front of everyone as though she was invisible.

She's indeed a Terror grade! Zhou Wen wasn't too surprised. It would be strange if the person who dared to challenge Ya wasn't at the Terror grade.

After Cave Era vanished, the only thing that could be seen in the arena was Ya, who was like a dazzling light. One could see the light constantly flashing. Ya was probably constantly attacking. He was likely capable of seeing Cave Era.

"Ya is in danger," Moon Goddess said.

"What's going on?" Zhou Wen asked with a frown. He couldn't see the battle clearly.

"See for yourself." Moon Goddess didn't answer directly.

"Would I be asking you if I could see it?" Zhou Wen said gloomily.

"You'll be able to see it very soon," Moon Goddess said with a hint at what she felt deep down.

Indeed, before long, Zhou Wen realized that the shadow that represented Ya was gradually slowing down. Not only that, but even his Terror form was becoming somewhat unstable.

After a while, Ya couldn't maintain his Terror form and revealed himself.

Furthermore, his body looked a little odd. The body under the robe looked much thinner and more hunched. Although his appearance couldn't be seen, his body didn't give off the feeling of a young and strong youth. Instead, he looked like an old man on the brink of death.

Temporal power! Zhou Wen immediately knew what had happened. The power of Cave Era was time.

Zhong Ziya had been affected by powers like Time Acceleration. Guardians wouldn't die and weren't afraid of the passage of time. However, Zhong Ziya wasn't a pure Guardian. Half of him had a human bloodline and he had a limit to his lifespan. He would still age.

"There's still a chance of survival if he admits defeat now. Otherwise, he will die of old age in the arena. Unfortunately, he has a betting contract. Admitting defeat will also lead to death," said Moon Goddess with a sigh.

What kind of contract is a betting contract? Zhou Wen could roughly guess the rules of the bet, but he still wanted to know the details.

"A typical Guardian contract is an equal contract. Both parties can terminate the contract at any time without paying any price. However, a betting contract is different, especially in a situation like Ya's. His strength isn't enough to absorb such a powerful Guardian, so he can only agree to sign a betting contract with the Guardian. If he can win the betting contract, he can always have this body. However, if he loses, I'm afraid this body will only benefit others in the end," Moon Goddess said.

"Just now, he said that he's betting on whether he can obtain first place. In other words, he has no way out now. He has to win?" Zhou Wen frowned slightly.

"His body has already aged. I'm afraid there's no chance of him winning," said Moon Goddess.

"It shouldn't be that simple," Zhou Wen said as he stared at Ya.

"He can't withstand the passage of time, nor can he touch Cave Era who possesses the ability of Time Acceleration. I can't think of a way for him to turn the tides of defeat." The Moon Goddess puppet looked at Zhou Wen and said, "Do you know what other abilities he has to help him turn the tables?"

"I don't know what abilities he has, but a person like him shouldn't be so helpless," Zhou Wen said after some thought.

However, the scene Zhou Wen was hoping for didn't happen. As time passed, Ya's body died and he collapsed to the ground. As time passed too quickly, Ya's body turned to dust.

Cave Era's figure appeared again. She glanced at the scattered dust on the ground, but her expression suddenly changed. She immediately entered her Terror form.

As for the dust that scattered on the ground, it gathered together again and returned to Ya's appearance. Furthermore, there was no sign of age on his body.

"Do you only realize it now? It's too late," Ya said as he extended his palm. A strange light rune shimmered in his palm.

At the spot where Cave Era had vanished, the same light rune shimmered. It immediately pulled Cave Era's body over, and she charged uncontrollably into Ya's palm.

Despite using several powers in a row, she was unable to escape Ya's power. Even though time slowed down, Cave Era still flew towards Ya's palm.

Chapter 1079: Perfection

Translator: CKtalon

Zhou Wen stood up as he watched Cave Era admit defeat and leave the cube's arena.

"Are you leaving?" the Moon Goddess puppet asked Zhou Wen.

"I have to return eventually." Zhou Wen was somewhat nervous.

It was almost certain that Glimmer would advance to a Perfect Body, but Zhou Wen didn't know if Glimmer's advancement to a Perfect Body could advance him to the Mythical stage.

"Aren't you going to hatch the Companion Beast I gave you?" the Moon Goddess puppet asked.

"In the future, I don't feel like doing it now." Zhou Wen tidied up his things and confirmed that he hadn't missed anything. He temporarily stored Jade Rabbit and Ice Maiden in the Chaos Bead before waving goodbye to Moon Goddess.

Taking a deep breath, Zhou Wen switched to the Sky-Stealing Sun-Swapping Art and used the Glimmer Life Soul to choose Earth as a teleportation target in the pocket universe.

His body instantly tore through the void. In the blink of an eye, Zhou Wen realized that he had returned to Earth and was standing in a desert.

Almost at the same time, the Glimmer Life Soul erupted with immense energy and rapidly transformed. The pocket universe in his body seemed to be activated as it automatically circulated.

In the originally empty desert, there was a baffling amount of energy. The energy was like countless meteors shooting from the sky to the ground.

This gave Zhou Wen a fright. This was because the meteors looked terrifying. Even if there were hundreds of Earths, they would probably be instantly destroyed.

However, that didn't happen. When the meteors hit Earth, they passed through it without hitting it. It was unbelievable.

The meteor that struck Zhou Wen fused into his body and into his pocket universe, making it stronger and stronger.

Finally, the Glimmer Life Soul completed its final evolution and became a Perfect Body.

However, Zhou Wen didn't have the time to observe what the Glimmer Life Soul had evolved into. The Lost Immortal Sutra in his body automatically circulated.

Zhou Wen was somewhat alarmed. Although the Lost Immortal Sutra automatically circulated, this was the first time it had automatically switched back while he was simulating other Essence Energy Arts.

Could it be that... I'm really about to advance to the Mythical stage? Zhou Wen felt expectant and uneasy.

His Slaughterer Life Soul automatically activated as it hugged Zhou Wen's body as though it had fused with him. Endless Essence Energy surged crazily.

Zhou Wen, who was looking forward to advancing to the Mythical stage, suddenly realized that another Essence Energy Art was circulating in his body.

Ancient Sovereign Sutra... How can this be... The Lost Immortal Sutra is still circulating without switching. Why is the Ancient Sovereign Sutra circulating at the same time? Won't there be a conflict? Zhou Wen was alarmed, but he realized that he couldn't stop the Essence Energy in his body from circulating.

He didn't know what was happening, nor did he know if it was a blessing or a curse.

In theory, it was very dangerous for two different Essence Energy Arts to circulate in one body. Now that the Lost Immortal Sutra and the Ancient Sovereign Sutra were circulating at the same time, Zhou Wen's body definitely couldn't withstand the clash of Essence Energy. The chances of him exploding to his death were as high as 99.99%.

As Zhou Wen was feeling uneasy, the Small Perfection of Wisdom Sutra began circulating.

It wasn't just Small Perfection of Wisdom. All the Essence Energy Arts that Zhou Wen had cultivated began circulating.

Unlike the usual switching of Essence Energy Arts, the Essence Energy Arts were circulating at the same time. The Ancient Sovereign Sutra, Small Perfection of Wisdom, Dao Sutra, Sky-Stealing Sun-Swapping, First Order of Chaos, Qi Refinement Art, Godfiend Era, and Demon God Bloodline Catalog were all circulating in Zhou Wen's body.

Zhou Wen was alarmed and afraid. Others who cultivated two Essence Energy Arts at the same time would most likely die.

With the nine Essence Energy Arts coming together, it was equivalent to having his name registered with the King of Hell. Zhou Wen found it unbelievable that he wouldn't die.

However, the nine Essence Energy Arts circulated in Zhou Wen's body without any conflict.

This feeling was magical. The circulation path of the nine Essence Energy Arts had many conflicts, but for some reason, other than the Lost Immortal Sutra, the eight Essence Energy Arts felt like they were circulating in the void.

The eight Essence Energy Arts seemed to circulate in Zhou Wen's body, but they also didn't seem to be in his body. They were closely connected to his body, but they weren't completely attached to his body.

This magical experience had the eight Essence Energy Arts circulate under the support of Zhou Wen's Essence Energy. If not for the Lost Immortal Sutra providing unlimited Essence Energy, it would be impossible for him to circulate all eight Essence Energy Arts at the same time.

As the eight Essence Energy Arts circulated, all sorts of Life Providences and Life Souls automatically activated.

What was even stranger was that the Life Providences and Life Souls had separated from Zhou Wen's body, forming independent entities. Eight Life Souls that had fused with the Life Providences appeared in eight different directions around Zhou Wen.

Primordial Human Sovereign was the shadow of a sovereign; the Heaven-Opening Scripture of the Highest Elder was a book; the Supreme Hell King was Zhou Wen himself; the New Era was a ring with a clown symbol; the Chaos Egg was an egg; the Sword Pill was still in the form of a pill—it hadn't changed into a sword; the Demon God Bloodline Catalog was a blood shadow. The blood shadow's outline looked like Zhou Wen.

Finally, there was a constantly changing point. It looked like a point, but inside, there seemed to be countless stars circulating as they constantly changed.

Zhou Wen knew that it was likely the Perfect Body Life Soul evolved by Glimmer. He didn't even have the time to look at its name.

These Life Souls were originally condensed by Zhou Wen. Although he had used a simulation method, they still had a blood connection with him when he used them.

But now, the eight Life Souls were unfamiliar and terrifying. Zhou Wen couldn't sense the connection that he should have with them. It was as though they weren't the Life Souls and Life Providences that Zhou Wen had condensed himself.

They clearly enjoyed Zhou Wen's Essence Energy, but they didn't belong to him. This feeling left him so depressed that he nearly vomited blood.

The only Life Soul that was connected to Zhou Wen's bloodline was Slaughterer. At the same time, Slaughterer emitted a terrifying killing intent that affected Zhou Wen's mind.

If not for Zhou Wen's extraordinary willpower, he would have long been controlled by the killing intent and turned into a lunatic who only knew how to kill.

Hum!

At that moment, the eight Life Souls erupted with terrifying power. Zhou Wen was extremely familiar with the powers. He had used most of them countless times.

However, this time, the powers didn't help Zhou Wen, but became his enemy.

The sword hum was like a song as the three thousand sword intents fused into one pill. The Sword Pill carried the supreme will of the Sword Dao as it slashed at Zhou Wen.

Chapter 1080: Annihilation

Translator: CKtalon

Zhou Wen didn't think that the sword intent was terrifying when he had used Sword Pill in the past, but now that Sword Pill had become an enemy, he realized how terrifying the sword intent was from personal experience.

Under the suppression of the terrifying sword intent, Slaughterer's killing intent erupted. Zhou Wen didn't plan on taking action, but his body was driven by Slaughterer's power. It was as though he was being hugged by someone behind him as he guided his attacks step by step.

Zhou Wen was somewhat depressed. Wasn't he hitting himself? It wasn't easy for him to condense the Sword Pill Life Soul and its corresponding Life Providence. It would be a pity if it was crippled.

Boom!

The sword beam clashed head-on with Slaughterer's strength. Sword Pill tore through the Essence Energy and stabbed Zhou Wen's palm at high speeds like a hot knife through butter.

However, the closer Sword Pill got to Zhou Wen's palm, the slower it became. The Essence Energy resistance it encountered increased. When it was a few centimeters away from Zhou Wen's palm, its forward speed was nearly reduced to zero.

Hum!

At that moment, Sword Pill suddenly changed. Its body transformed into a sword that broke through Slaughterer's Essence Energy barrier. The blade pierced through Zhou Wen's palm.

Damn it. I'll be the first person in history to be injured by my Life Soul, right? Zhou Wen knew that he couldn't hesitate any longer. He wanted to cooperate with Slaughterer and fight seriously.

It didn't matter if it was condensed by him. If he wanted to live, he had to destroy it first.

Just as he was about to pull out the Sword Pill that had penetrated his palm, the blood shadow condensed by the Demon God Body attacked Zhou Wen from the other side. With a flash, it appeared behind him.

Zhou Wen turned around and brandished his fist. Just as he was about to strike the Demon God Body, the blood shadow that looked like Zhou Wen transformed into a blood snake that wrapped around Zhou Wen's arm and bit at his neck.

Screw you. Zhou Wen made a prompt decision and headbutted the blood snake's head.

However, the blood snake changed again. It flapped its wings and transformed into a blood bird, dodging Zhou Wen's head strike. Its claws left several bloody marks on Zhou Wen's scalp, injuring his skull.

The Primordial Human Sovereign and Supreme Hell King also attacked from both sides. One fist carried a brilliant divine light while the other carried invisible karmic sinflames.

Zhou Wen used his left hand to pull out the Sword Pill that had penetrated his right hand. He quickly moved, hoping to dodge the attacks of the Primordial Human Sovereign and the Supreme Hell King. At the same time, he wanted to summon his Companion Beasts.

However, the Companion Beasts didn't react at all. Even Demonic Neonate didn't answer his calls.

Two streams of light flashed and appeared in front of Zhou Wen out of thin air. He had just dodged the attacks of Primordial Human Sovereign and Supreme Hell King, so it was already difficult for him to afford any new strength. Furthermore, the two streams of light appeared out of thin air as though they were teleporting.

Zhou Wen could only do his best to contort his body. With his excellent reaction speed and calm mind, he dodged the two streams of light that appeared out of nowhere in front of his chest and the back of his head. He wasn't hit by the fatal attack.

At that instant, the two streams of light vanished again, but Zhou Wen could clearly see that one of the streams of light was the New Era Ring Life Soul. The other was the Perfect Life Soul that Glimmer had just evolved.

Zhou Wen's figure moved at high speeds as he took the opportunity to deliver a punch at Supreme Hell King. He wanted to kill one first, but he was surrounded by eight Life Souls and couldn't use Companion Beasts. This left him overwhelmed.

However, when Zhou Wen's fist struck Supreme Hell King, it didn't hit its corporeal body. The palm seemed to pass through space and enter purgatory. The palm inside Supreme Hell King's body was instantly enveloped by flames. In the flames, the flesh on the palm quickly disintegrated.

Zhou Wen hurriedly retracted his hand, but the injury couldn't be healed.

Do you really think I'm easily defeated? Zhou Wen was infuriated. He used Transcendent Flying Immortal and the Heart Defying Sword. As his figure moved like an illusion, sword beams crisscrossed.

A huge ball rolled over. It was none other than the Chaos Egg. When Zhou Wen's sword beam slashed at the Chaos Egg, it was instantly absorbed like water that had encountered a sponge.

In the past, when Zhou Wen had used these Life Souls to restrain others, he had felt extremely comfortable, but now, he realized how uncomfortable it was to be besieged by these Life Souls.

The easiest thing for humans to ignore was what they already had.

Only when he became enemies with his Life Souls did Zhou Wen seem to realize his Life Souls for what they were worth. It wasn't that Zhou Wen didn't understand them in the past, but that he couldn't see it from this angle.

In the past, Zhou Wen could use their characteristics, but he never knew how it felt to be attacked by the power of these Life Souls.

Apart from the Heaven-Opening Scripture of the Highest Elder remaining motionless, the other seven Life Souls surrounded Zhou Wen as though they wanted to kill him.

Although Zhou Wen had pushed his technique and strength to their peak, he was still at a disadvantage in a one-on-seven situation. He was constantly injured by his Life Souls, making the situation rather terrible.

The injuries on his body made Zhou Wen increasingly calm. Slaughterer's strength gradually fused with Zhou Wen. With the augmentation of infinite Essence Energy, Zhou Wen's strength grew stronger.

If I can condense you, I'll naturally be able to destroy you. Zhou Wen's eyes were calm. Slaughterer seemed to have fused with his body as a whole, no longer hugging his sole Life Soul.

Seeing Sword Pill fly over again, Zhou Wen used his finger as a sword and stabbed at it.

At that moment, Zhou Wen's Essence Energy already had the power of Immortal Slaying.

Pitting sword against sword, Zhou Wen's sword aura and sword intent were stronger than Sword Pill. When the sword beams collided, Sword Pill's sword aura instantly shattered. Even the sword body shattered.

The demon beast transformed from the Demon God Body had already pounced behind Zhou Wen. Zhou Wen didn't turn his head or dodge. Instead, he rapidly retreated and slammed into the demon beast.

Terrifying Essence Energy directly shattered the demon beast formed by the Demon God Body, turning it into specks of splattering blood.

He suddenly extended his left hand and grabbed at his ear. The New Era Ring that he had teleported out of was caught between his fingers before it was crushed.

Zhou Wen's every move contained the terrifying power of Immortal Slaying. Together with his strength and the augmentation of Slaughterer, he slaughtered his former Life Souls.

One Life Soul after another that once belonged to him was shattered by him. Sword Pill, New Era, Demon God Body, Supreme Hell King, Primordial Human Sovereign, Singularity, and even the Chaos Egg with the strongest defense were cleaved into two by Zhou Wen.

Apart from the immense power of Immortal Slaying, there was another important reason. Zhou Wen knew them too well.

No Life Soul could withstand a single strike from him. Once upon a time, he would have been enervated once he used the power of Immortal Slaying, but now, he could use it freely without weakening himself.

Only the final Heaven-Opening Scripture of the Highest Elder remained floating there. The other Life Souls that Zhou Wen had painstakingly condensed shattered into dust.

Zhou Wen looked at the Heaven-Opening Scripture of the Highest Elder with a calm expression. He raised his palm and slashed down like a blade.

Chapter 1081: No More Friends

Translator: CKtalon

After Cave Era was defeated, no Guardian challenged Ya again. Time ticked by until there was only one second left before another Guardian challenged Ya.

"Indeed, they won't let Ya, a half-human, obtain first place so easily." Zhang Chunqiu looked at the cube and sighed.

"Even the Cave Era with the power of time was defeated. Are there any Guardians with powers stronger than time?" Zhang Yuzhi asked in puzzlement.

Zhang Chunqiu smiled and said, "Time is indeed a very powerful attribute. In theory, time and space should be considered top-notch strength among all the various attributes. However, at that realm, the suppression between attributes isn't the most important. The strength of a skill is also no longer an important criterion to determine one's combat strength."

"Then how do we determine who's stronger and who's weaker?" Zhang Yuzhi asked.

"It depends on whose willpower is stronger, whose intelligence is deeper, and whose in-combat improvisation is better. At that stage, there are only weak people, and no such thing as weak abilities. Any ability, even if it looks weak, can become the key to victory as long as it's used properly." Zhang Chunqiu paused before adding, "Of course, this is when the difference in strength isn't too disparate. If the difference in strength is too great, it will be a different matter. However, Ya's strength and ability should be considered top-notch on Earth. It's unlikely that there's a force on Earth that has absolute suppressive might on him."

"Why can't it appear? Didn't you say that there's the stronger Calamity grade above the Terror grade?" Zhang Yuzhi still wore a puzzled expression.

"The Calamity grade can naturally crush the Terror grade, but in a place like Earth, there are only two possibilities for a Calamity-grade creature to appear. The first is the descent of a Calamity-grade powerhouse from the dimension. However, the dimension's Calamity-grade powerhouse will be restricted by the rules of Earth after its descent. It's impossible for them to unleash the strength of the Calamity grade. If they forcefully use their Calamity-grade strength, they might even be reduced to the Mythical stage by the rules."

Zhang Chunqiu thought before continuing, "There's another possibility. After a Guardian contracts a human, they can use the bodies of humans to advance to the Calamity grade. Too little time has been given to the Guardians born in this era. Let alone advancing to the Calamity grade, there aren't even many at the Terror grade. Therefore, if a Calamity-grade creature appears on Earth, the only possibility is that it is from the Calamity-grade Guardians that survived the previous war."

"Like the one in our Fiend Tomb?" Zhang Yuzhi asked.

Zhang Chunqiu didn't answer and continued, "However, although the Guardians who survived the battle are extremely powerful, the humans who contracted them can't live that long. After leaving the humans, their strength will once again be suppressed by the rules of Earth. Even if they have the strength of the Calamity grade, it's impossible for them to use it on Earth unless they contract humans again."

"There are so many humans on Earth. It shouldn't be difficult to find a contractor, right?" Zhang Yuzhi said after some thought.

"It's not that easy. There is some kind of restriction. Do you think the one in our family doesn't want to come out?" Zhang Chunqiu smiled and said, "In short, it looks like Ya still has a chance. As long as he can survive the next challenge from the dimension, he might very well become the final victor."

"Brother, do you wish for Ya to win or for him to lose?" Zhang Yuzhi blinked and asked.

"From my standpoint, I hope he wins, but his chances aren't high," Zhang Chunqiu answered.

The person challenging Ya was a Guardian named Jiuyue. It was a very unfamiliar name. He had never appeared on the rankings before, so no one knew what abilities he had.

After the battle began, people immediately knew what ability he had because the characteristics of his ability were too obvious.

Teleportation—constant teleportation. Ya's continuous attacks failed to touch any part of Jiuyue's clothes.

However, Jiuyue had no intention of counterattacking. If Ya attacked, he would teleport and dodge. If Ya didn't attack, he wouldn't move either. Instead of calling it a battle, it looked more like he was stalling for time.

Ya didn't launch any meaningless attacks as he took on his Terror form. His body transformed into a beam of light, but Jiuyue could also enter the Terror form. After doing so, he vanished even more thoroughly than Ya.

However, the Terror-form Jiuyue still had no intention of counterattacking. He continued dodging. Now, anyone could tell that Jiuyue was stalling for time. They just didn't understand why he was stalling.

"What does Jiuyue want? If he wants to expend Ya's Essence Energy, that shouldn't be right. The Essence Energy he expends when teleporting is much more than Ya," Xia Xuanyue said in thought as she looked at the cube's screen.

Xia Liuchuan looked at the screen and frowned. "I have an ominous feeling. I'm afraid this battle for first place won't end so easily."

"Why do you say that?" Xia Xuanyue asked in puzzlement.

"I don't know. It's just a hunch." Xia Liuchuan shook his head slightly, but his expression was solemn.

Just as Xia Xuanyue had said, Jiuyue was constantly teleporting in his Terror form, and the expenditure was much greater than Ya's. If he continued fighting, Ya would definitely win.

However, Ya didn't continue attacking. He stopped and left his Terror form. He sat down in the arena and placed Primordial Immortal Sword on his lap.

"Why aren't you fighting?" Jiuyue had also left his Terror form as he looked at Ya and asked in puzzlement.

"Don't you need time to prepare to deal with me? I'll give you time," Ya said indifferently.

Jiuyue looked at Ya with a complicated expression. "You know that I need time to deal with you. Why don't you defeat me as soon as possible? If you are fast enough, you might be able to avoid a lot of trouble."

"What will be, will be. Besides, I'm not afraid of trouble," Ya said.

"No regrets?" Jiuyue asked Ya.

"Life isn't about regret, but about doing what you want to do," Ya answered.

Jiuyue looked at Ya and sighed. "If I had met you earlier, we might have become friends."

"We won't become friends. I stopped making friends long ago," Ya said.

"Why?" Jiuyue asked Ya in a daze.

"Because I only have one life. I can't give it all to them when there are too many friends," Ya answered.

Jiuyue didn't say a word when he heard that. He only looked at Ya silently. After a moment, Jiuyue said, "If you attack now, you still have a chance if you can defeat me in fifteen minutes."

Ya had no intention of moving. He continued sitting there with his eyes closed. Jiuyue looked at him and asked, "Do you think I'm lying to you?"

"No, I believe you are telling the truth," Ya said with certainty.

"Then why aren't you fighting?" Jiuyue asked curiously.

"Because I don't want to be your friend, I won't take anything that belongs to you," Ya said.

Jiuyue looked at Ya with a strange look in his eyes. After a while, he wanted to say something, but his expression suddenly changed. He looked into the void and sighed. "It's too late now."

In the void, a beam descended, illuminating the entire cube's arena.

Chapter 1082: The Symbol on the Wheel of Destiny

Translator: CKtalon

At the instant he shattered the Heaven-Opening Scripture, Zhou Wen felt his body undergo a strange change.

The mysterious Sigh of the Life Providence King automatically circulated. Slaughterer that had fused with Zhou Wen's body still emitted terrifying killing intent and Essence Energy. It was even more terrifying than when he fought the eight Life Souls.

As for Zhou Wen's essence, vitality, and spirit, they erupted like a volcano.

The energy produced by the three forces was unimaginable.

Zhou Wen had seen countless Mythical creatures. Apart from Demonic Neonate, who had the ability to undergo Terror transformation at the Mythical stage, all sorts of powerful Mythical creatures, such as Torch Dragon and Tyrant Behemoth, could produce powers that weren't as terrifying as the ones Zhou Wen had unleashed.

Under the direction of such a terrifying force, Zhou Wen felt his body constantly transform.

This transformation was different from any other in the past. The previous transformations were within Zhou Wen's limits, but this time, the energy produced by the evolution was no longer something his body could withstand.

At the beginning of the evolution, Zhou Wen was very worried that his body would explode because he couldn't withstand the power.

In fact, it was indeed the case. In an instant, countless cracks appeared on Zhou Wen's body like an eggshell that was about to shatter.

At this moment of life and death, the terrifying force surged towards a spot.

It was a point, a point that seemed to be in a superposition of existence and non-existence. It was like the beginning of the universe, but also the end of the world.

That point seemed to be a real existence, but it also seemed to only exist in his consciousness.

Between reality and illusion, it was difficult to even determine its existence. However, when the terrifying power injected into the point, it gradually became clearer.

It constantly spun and changed, and it became more and more corporeal. However, this corporealization was very abstract. It didn't really exist in reality, as though it was just Zhou Wen's imagination.

Gradually, the point grew bigger and brighter, turning from a point into a wheel.

Furthermore, there were many strange, changing patterns on the wheel.

The patterns were abstract. Sometimes, Zhou Wen felt that the patterns resembled him, and sometimes, they resembled Slaughterer. Sometimes, they resembled the Life Souls that had been destroyed by Zhou Wen.

There were moments when the patterns resembled Primordial Human Sovereign, New Era, and Supreme Hell King. However, upon careful inspection, it didn't seem like it.

It was difficult to describe the patterns accurately.

Even Zhou Wen couldn't tell what shape the wheel was. Although it could be described as a disk, it only had one face. It had a spherical arc.

If it was described as a sphere, from a certain angle it looked sunken. It was like a coin that was constantly spinning and changing.

Is this the Wheel of Destiny? Zhou Wen could sense that the Wheel of Destiny was inextricably linked to him. It was like a part of his body, as important as organs like his brain and heart.

However, it was different from the organs that grew on its body. It existed independently.

What will my Wheel of Destiny be? Tyrant Behemoth's Absolute Strength isn't bad. Dragon Eclipse's Bright Torch Vision World is the strongest, but those don't seem to have anything to do with me... Zhou Wen didn't know what his Wheel of Destiny would be.

This was because he didn't have any reference. Perhaps he was the first human to rely on his own strength to advance to the Mythical stage.

The three forces constantly surged into the Wheel of Destiny that was taking shape, but even the Wheel of Destiny couldn't seem to withstand such a powerful force.

In particular, the energy that gushed out from the Sigh of the King was endless like a galaxy or the universe itself.

The energy that seeped out of the Wheel of Destiny seeped into Zhou Wen's flesh and blood. Under the impact of the energy, his transformed flesh and blood seemed to undergo an inexplicable change.

Zhou Wen and the Wheel of Destiny were constantly transforming, especially the patterns on the Wheel of Destiny. The changes seemed to slow down as some of the lines stopped moving.

Zhou Wen inexplicably knew that his Wheel of Destiny was about to condense. This was the most critical moment.

What kind of power is it? If I can choose, I hope that the power of the Wheel of Destiny is related to spacetime. Zhou Wen felt that the power of spacetime was easier to understand the world's origins.

To figure out the relationship between the dimension and Earth, perhaps spatial-temporal power was a good entry point.

However, he didn't see any patterns related to spacetime on the Wheel of Destiny.

On the Wheel of Destiny that had condensed, many of the lines had already solidified. The lines looked a little messy, but he still couldn't figure it out.

Zhou Wen tried to figure out some patterns from it, but in reality, there was no pattern to the lines. They were everywhere, as though they were random scribbles.

Most of them were curves with almost no straight lines.

Ah! When most of the lines took form, Zhou Wen finally saw what symbol it was. At the same time, he was alarmed.

It was a painting. It was a portrait of a woman, but it only showed her side profile. He couldn't see her entire face. The portrait was complete, and just the incomplete side profile was already breathtakingly beautiful.

However, this wasn't the reason for Zhou Wen's horror. What truly alarmed him was that he was too f*cking familiar with this woman's avatar.

This was the woman's portrait on the anchor. He couldn't be wrong. Zhou Wen had seen it too many times and had thought about it too many times. Apart from the lack of an anchor, this was the woman's portrait.

As more and more lines were fixed, it proved Zhou Wen's guess. It was indeed identical to the portrait of the anchor woman he had seen. Apart from not having an anchor, it was identical.

Why... Why would that woman's symbol appear on my Wheel of Destiny... Countless thoughts flashed through Zhou Wen's mind.

Just as the woman's portrait was about to be completed with only a few strokes left, Zhou Wen suddenly felt extremely uncomfortable.

That's my Wheel of Destiny. Why is there a woman on it? Zhou Wen felt an inexplicable emotion. This emotion seemed to infect the Wheel of Destiny.

When the woman's portrait was just short of the last stroke, the Wheel of Destiny suddenly lit up. The rapidly spinning Wheel of Destiny suddenly stopped.

In the next moment, the Wheel of Destiny moved again. However, it was different from before. It was actually spinning in reverse.

Following the reversal of the Wheel of Destiny, the portrait of the woman engraved on the Wheel of Destiny was disappearing bit by bit.

For some reason, even though he didn't know what the outcome would be, Zhou Wen felt an inexplicable sense of satisfaction.

Chapter 1083: No Engravings

Translator: CKtalon

The patterns on the Wheel of Destiny decreased bit by bit, and at that moment, the Sigh of the King's power suddenly surged out even more crazily.

Unlike how it was helping the Wheel of Destiny's rotation previously, the Sigh of the King's power was now trying to prevent the Wheel of Destiny from spinning in reverse.

The Sigh of the King was unimaginably powerful. The Wheel of Destiny, which was rapidly spinning in reverse, immediately slowed down as though the emergency brake had been hit.

The Wheel of Destiny didn't completely stop reversing. It was still spinning slowly like a clock's second hand. Every tick produced a click.

This sound wasn't the tick of the second hand, but the cracking sounds of the Wheel of Destiny as it continued spinning in defiance of the Sigh of the King's terrifying power.

Crack! Crack!

The Wheel of Destiny spun forcefully. After a few rotations, several cracks appeared on its body. If this continued, the entire Wheel of Destiny would probably shatter.

Zhou Wen felt his lifeblood boil as though his body was about to be torn apart.

He knew very well that if the Wheel of Destiny shattered now, not only would his advancement to the Mythical stage fail, but he would also be reduced to the Epic stage. It was even possible that his body would be severely injured. It was difficult to say if he would be able to reach the Mythical stage again.

However, Zhou Wen didn't stop the Wheel of Destiny from circulating. He had long known that his Life Providence was different from the average person's Life Providence.

The Sigh of the King far exceeded the power an ordinary Life Providence should have. Mythical creatures could be killed with a single thought. The various deities in the temple didn't dare to receive his bow. After all, the creatures in the temples were very likely existences at the Terror grade.

Just as Moon Goddess had said, his Life Providence shouldn't have been like this. It was because of some external influence that it had formed such a Life Providence.

Without a doubt, the external force that affected him was the metal plate that recorded the Lost Immortal Sutra. The existence that whispered in Zhou Wen's ear like a female ghost had only appeared after he obtained the metal plate. From then on, it had left a huge impact on Zhou Wen.

Zhou Wen originally believed that he had completely resolved this problem after he advanced to the Epic stage.

However, from the looks of it, this problem hadn't been resolved. It was still affecting him. Otherwise, how could that woman's portrait appear on his Wheel of Destiny?

Could the woman drawn on the anchor be the same person as the owner of the Lost Immortal Sutra? Zhou Wen guessed.

The Wheel of Destiny was still spinning in reverse, but the Sigh of the King was just too powerful. If the Wheel of Destiny continued spinning in reverse, there would only be one outcome—the Wheel of Destiny would definitely shatter.

Despite knowing this outcome, Zhou Wen had no intention of stopping it.

Perhaps it had something to do with how Zhou Wen had lived alone from an early age. From the moment he could register memories, he had basically lived alone. He had decided what he should and shouldn't do. Even Zhou Lingfeng hadn't forced him to do anything.

Now that the Sigh of the King's power had forcefully interfered with the formation of his Wheel of Destiny, coupled with Zhou Wen's understanding of the Sigh of the King, Zhou Wen firmly supported the Wheel of Destiny's reversal. This was because his personal feelings wouldn't lie. When the Wheel of Destiny reversed, the comfortable feeling made him make a decision.

Even if the Wheel of Destiny shattered, wasting the past two years, and even if he had to start over again, he would definitely not compromise. He would not let the Sigh of the King control his Wheel of Destiny and decide how he was to proceed in the future.

My path can only be decided by myself. Zhou Wen watched the Wheel of Destiny constantly crack. It wasn't done on impulse, nor would he feel any regret. He was extremely calm.

He was still young. As long as he was still alive, he still had the capital to start all over again. If he didn't stay true to himself, was he going to regret it when he was old?

Crack! Crack!

As though sensing Zhou Wen's beliefs, the Wheel of Destiny spun even more intensely. However, every spin was at the cost of its own destruction.

Seeing that the Wheel of Destiny was about to shatter into pieces, the Sigh of the King's forceful control of the power on the Wheel of Destiny began to recede.

The Wheel of Destiny finally regained its freedom as it spun faster. The woman's portrait was also erased bit by bit.

The damaged Wheel of Destiny continued absorbing energy and repairing the damaged wheel. When the last line of the woman's portrait was erased, the Wheel of Destiny had long returned to normal.

At that moment, it stopped moving. Zhou Wen originally imagined that the Wheel of Destiny would spin again before condensing a mark that truly belonged to him.

However, it didn't happen. After the Wheel of Destiny stopped circulating, the power that erupted caused Zhou Wen's body to undergo a mutation. Zhou Wen clearly felt his stats increase—it was no longer limited by 41 points.

I've advanced to the Mythical stage? But why isn't there anything on my Wheel of Destiny? Zhou Wen was somewhat depressed as he hurriedly checked his phone. He wanted to take a careful look at his stats to see what abilities the unmarked Wheel of Destiny had.

Zhou Wen was connected to the Wheel of Destiny by blood, so he could sense that it had power. However, the power was strange, preventing him from completely comprehending its profundity.

He switched on his phone and dripped a drop of blood on it. A few notifications immediately popped up on the phone's home screen.

'Advanced to the Mythical stage. Bloodline function activated.

'Advanced to the Mythical stage. Samsara function activated.'

'Advanced to the Mythical stage. Birth function activated.'

Zhou Wen was dumbstruck when he saw this. The first two were fine. Although he didn't know what they were for, he would eventually find out in the future.

But what the hell is this Birth function? Could it be that he couldn't have children before advancing to the Mythical stage? Did he need a phone to decide whether he could have children?

However, Zhou Wen wasn't in the mood to study the new functions of the phone. All he wanted to know was what his Wheel of Destiny was.

Opening the blood-colored avatar's stats, the blood-colored avatar's latest information entered Zhou Wen's eyes.

Zhou Wen: Mythical

Life Providence: Sigh of the King

Life Soul: Slaughterer

Wheel of Destiny: No Engravings (One Spin)

Strength: 42

Speed: 42

Constitution: 42

Essence Energy: 42

...

Zhou Wen carefully looked at his various stats a few times. It was within his expectations to break through his limits. He still needed to absorb the various stat crystals to raise his strength to the level of a true Mythical creature.

Slaughterer didn't have the mark of a Perfect Body, not because it had weakened, but because with Zhou Wen's advancement, his Life Soul already had the strength of a Mythical.

The Sigh of the King remained the same. It didn't change at all. After preventing the Wheel of Destiny to no avail, there was nothing from it.

There were no changes to the various rare stats. The rare stats required him to absorb the stat crystals himself. They wouldn't automatically increase just because he had advanced to the Mythical stage.

Finally, it was Zhou Wen's Wheel of Destiny. Ignoring what kind of ability No Engravings was, just One Spin annotation left Zhou Wen alarmed.

Zhou Wen had only seen the words "One Spin" on Demonic Neonate's Wheel of Destiny before, but Demonic Neonate's Wheel of Destiny was called One Spin. And on his Wheel of Destiny, One Spin seemed to be a unit.

Chapter 1084: A Mountain

Translator: CKtalon

No Engravings: Destiny when unengraved, has not come to an end.

Zhou Wen looked at the annotation of his Wheel of Destiny and was still confused. He still didn't know what his Wheel of Destiny's ability was.

Without even looking at where he was, Zhou Wen entered the game, hoping to see what use the Wheel of Destiny had in actual combat.

At the same time, he could farm some Mythical dimensional crystals and raise his stats. Otherwise, he would be at a disadvantage facing a Mythical creature.

He entered Deer Terrace Pavilion, where there were the most Mythical creatures on the third floor. Although they weren't strong, it was a good place to farm Mythical dimensional crystals.

He first tried using the Chi he had encountered on the way, but it left Zhou Wen puzzled. After the Wheel of Destiny was activated, it immediately began circulating.

However, nothing happened. There was no augmentation of attributes, no powerful offensive strength, or any special changes.

What's going on? Zhou Wen was extremely depressed. He now suspected that something had happened to his Wheel of Destiny because of the reversal. He hadn't obtained an ability that the Wheel of Destiny should have.

He rushed all the way to the underground sea, but the nine Demon Blood True Dragons hadn't respawned. Zhou Wen was about to rush past the area when his gaze swept across the sapphire-like sky, he couldn't help but be stunned.

Approaching the sapphire sky spelled death. After observing it several times, Zhou Wen failed to discover the secret within.

However, when he looked at the sapphire sky, he realized that there was a massive creature inside.

The creature was so huge that it was comparable to a dragon. It could be seen in every corner of the underground sea, but Zhou Wen had never seen such a huge creature before.

Have I always been blind in the past? Zhou Wen immediately rejected this thought and became ecstatic.

He wasn't blind in the past, so there were only two possibilities why he hadn't seen the massive creature in the sapphire sky.

One possibility was that the creature was capable of invisibility. Another possibility was that the creature was at the Terror grade, so Zhou Wen couldn't see it.

The first possibility wasn't high. If it was invisible, there should have been other methods to sense its existence. However, Zhou Wen had used many methods in the past, but he had failed to discover it. Now, things were clearly abnormal that he could suddenly see it.

I can see creatures in their Terror form? Zhou Wen's first reaction was to summon Demonic Neonate and let her enter her Terror state.

Indeed, I can see it! Zhou Wen looked at Demonic Neonate and nearly jumped up in joy.

In the past, when Demonic Neonate transformed into her Terror form, Zhou Wen had seen nothing but air. Now, Zhou Wen could see her clearly.

He realized that Demonic Neonate's body had indeed changed significantly. However, he hadn't seen her in the past, so he didn't know what Demonic Neonate looked like after her Terror transformation.

After Demonic Neonate transformed into her Terror form, the demonic aura on her body was variable. She was like a devil, transforming into all sorts of terrifying shadows as though she could devour anyone at any moment.

On the other hand, Demonic Neonate didn't change much herself. She was still wearing an ink-purple armor. She held the Demonic Sword in her arms and a bell hung at her waist. She stood there coldly.

Zhou Wen stopped circulating the Wheel of Destiny. Demonic Neonate immediately vanished from his eyes as though she had turned invisible.

Could it be that the power of my Wheel of Destiny allows me to see creatures that have turned into their Terror form? This seems a little weak... But it can't really be considered weak either... Zhou Wen felt that this ability wasn't bad.

There were two key reasons why the Terror grade was powerful. One was that only the power of the Terror grade could injure a Terror grade. Therefore, no matter how strong a Mythical grade was, it was almost impossible to defeat the Terror grade.

Even if the stats between both parties weren't too different, the Terror grade was invincible among Mythical creatures.

This wasn't something that couldn't be resolved. Zhou Wen had the Ice Dragon King's Terror item. By using it as a weapon, he could injure Terror-grade creatures. This had been confirmed when used on Night Thearch.

The other terrifying thing about the Terror grade was that most people couldn't see them. The unknown would deepen one's fear, making it impossible for ordinary creatures to fight a Terror-grade creature. They could only be tortured to death.

However, it wasn't absolute. For example, the Terror transformation of the Jade Rabbit didn't make it invisible to others. Instead, it just gigantified.

However, this type of Terror-grade creature was relatively rare. Most Terror-grade creatures had Terror forms that couldn't be seen.

Now Zhou Wen could see Terror-grade creatures and had something that could injure Terror-grade creatures. These two points had greatly increased his strength.

In the future, when he faced Terror-grade creatures again, he wouldn't be at such a disadvantage.

Now that I think about it, my Wheel of Destiny seems rather useful. Zhou Wen thought for a moment and realized that it was indeed very useful. However, he still felt that it didn't have all the abilities of No Engravings.

Zhou Wen did some more experiments, but he didn't discover any other abilities.

Knowing that such matters couldn't be rushed, Zhou Wen decided to cross the underground sea and let Demonic Neonate enter Deer Terrace Pavilion. He killed the fake fairies and immortals and cleared the three-story building. Finally, a 59-valued Strength Crystal and 62-valued Essence Energy Crystal dropped.

He directly refined and absorbed them, and the two stats instantly increased.

Zhou Wen didn't continue farming because he didn't know where he was.

The teleportation ability of Glimmer was a long-distance interstellar teleportation. It could only teleport to a designated planet, but its precision was insufficient.

Now that he was in a desert, Zhou Wen had no idea where he was.

In the past, with Glimmer and New Era, it wasn't difficult to get his bearings. However, Zhou Wen had shattered all his Life Providences and Life Souls, so he naturally didn't have his prior abilities.

He tried switching Essence Energy Arts and realized that there was no reaction. It was as though he had never cultivated them before.

Are all the Essence Energy Arts I took so long to cultivate crippled just like that? Zhou Wen shook his head slightly. Forget it. I need to figure out where I am first.

Zhou Wen tried his best to expand Truth Listener's range to figure out where he was, but all Truth Listener could hear was a desert.

Only in the distance in front of Zhou Wen was a mountain. The mountain was somewhat strange. In the endless desert, there wasn't a single cactus or water source, but the mountain was filled with greenery and vitality.

Zhou Wen sized it up for a while and didn't walk towards the mountain. Instead, he summoned the Earth Elemental Beast and got it to tunnel in the opposite direction.

There was definitely something amiss. Although Zhou Wen was powerful, he didn't dare barge into mysterious places without the protection of the Heaven-Opening Scripture of the Highest Elder.

However, when the Earth Elemental Beast tunneled hundreds of kilometers away, Zhou Wen was alarmed to discover that he had already arrived at the foot of the mountain.

Chapter 1085: Paradise Mountain

Translator: CKtalon

Zhou Wen looked up and saw a monument standing in front of the mountain. On it were the words "Paradise Mountain."

Zhou Wen immediately knew where he was.

Back when he followed Liu Yun to the Taklamakan Desert, Liu Yun had once told him that there were four extremely terrifying dimensional zones in the desert: Death Valley, Netherworld City, the Endless Sea of Stars, and Paradise Mountain.

Zhou Wen had already been to Netherworld City and the Endless Sea of Stars. He had heard of Paradise Mountain, but he never expected to see it when he teleported back.

Since he couldn't leave, Zhou Wen decided not to. He released Ice Maiden and Jade Rabbit and carried Demonic Neonate as he carefully sized up the Paradise Mountain stone monument.

Beneath the stone monument was a tiny palm symbol.

It's a free dungeon. It's a waste not to take it. Zhou Wen took out his phone and snapped a picture of the tiny palm symbol. He immediately entered the download screen.

According to Liu Yun, no one who enters Paradise Mountain can come out alive. I wonder what's so special about this mountain? Now that there's no Heaven-Opening Scripture of the Highest Elder, it's not easy to barge in. It's best I wait until the game is downloaded before exploring in-game. Just as Zhou Wen was thinking, he heard a sweet voice coming from Paradise Mountain.

Looking up, he saw a group of bikini beauties laughing and playing. Their beautiful legs made him dizzy.

Zhou Wen sat outside the mountain and watched the beauties play. His body seemed to have an uncontrollable urge to go over. Thankfully, his will was firm. With a thought, he made the urge disappear.

He circulated the Wheel of Destiny and looked at the beauties. His pupils immediately constricted.

They weren't beauties at all. They were just huge, ugly and evil gray rats.

What was even stranger was that the gray rats stood like humans. They wore gray cloaks and their eyes swirled with an evil light.

Upon seeing this scene, Zhou Wen summoned the Bronze Sparrow Sword. The flaming blade tore out of its scabbard and flew into Paradise Mountain, instantly killing a few evil gray-robed rats.

This stirred up the rats' nest. A large number of gray-robed rats crawled out of the mountain forest of Paradise Mountain. Their eyes lit up as they formed a massive psyche force field. The more gray-robed rats there were, the stronger the psyche force field.

Zhou Wen immediately understood why no one returned from Paradise Mountain alive.

These gray-robed rats were good at psyche attacks. Furthermore, they could gather their psyche powers together. It was similar to the combined attack of the Musical Note Sprites.

However, these gray-robed rats were even more terrifying. Psyche attacks were difficult to defend against, and these were all at the Epic stage. Furthermore, there were many of them. Even Mythical creatures would easily be lost in their minds if they suffered their psyche attacks.

In the beginning, the Bronze Sparrow Sword wasn't affected. It continued slaughtering the gray-robed rats, igniting flames everywhere on Paradise Mountain.

However, when thirteen red-clothed rats appeared on Paradise Mountain, the Bronze Sparrow Sword was also affected. Not only did it stop killing, but it also turned to attack Zhou Wen.

Holy sh*t, thirteen Mythical rats. This Paradise Mountain is a force to be reckoned with. Don't tell me there are still Terror-grade existences? Zhou Wen felt a huge mental pressure as he thought to himself.

However, his willpower was extremely tenacious to begin with. Now that he had the Wheel of Destiny, he could see the true bodies of the rats. No matter what, he wouldn't be fooled. He extended his hand and grabbed the Bronze Sparrow Sword that was in a state of betrayal.

However, the rats' psyche strength was quite powerful. Countless Epic gray-robed rats and the thirteen red-robed rats exerted their strength together. Even the Terror-grade Jade Rabbit was affected.

Jade Rabbit's eyes were replaced with red hearts as it slowly walked towards Paradise Mountain.

"Wake it up." Zhou Wen felt embarrassed for Jade Rabbit. It was at the Terror grade after all, but it had been bewitched by a mischief of rats.

Ice Maiden summoned a huge block of ice and smashed it onto Jade Rabbit's head. The ice shattered into pieces before Jade Rabbit woke up.

Although the Jade Rabbit is a pure Strength-type Companion Beast and its mental strength isn't its specialty, it's still at the Terror grade. To be able to affect it, these rats' psyche skills are no trifling matter. Zhou Wen saw that Ice Maiden seemed to have the ability to restrain such psyche skills, so he got her to ascend Paradise Mountain and kill the rats first.

Ice Maiden wasn't in the mood to play with these rats. After her Terror transformation, an ice explosion blasted most of the gray-robed rats into ice shards.

About eight of the thirteen red-robed rats died. A few were also injured.

When Zhou Wen saw the dimensional crystals and Companion Eggs on the ground, he hurriedly summoned a group of Musical Note Sprites and got them to pick up the dimensional crystals and Companion Eggs.

Seeing that the remaining red-robed rats were about to escape, Ice Maiden waved her hand. Cold air surged out and froze them into ice sculptures.

When Ice Maiden saw that the rats were dead and was about to return, she suddenly heard an ear-piercing shriek coming from the top of Paradise Mountain.

"Squeak!" The voice was extremely sharp. Ice Maiden's expression changed slightly when she heard the voice. Icy light erupted from her body, as if she was resisting some terrifying power.

The Musical Note Sprites that Zhou Wen had sent into Paradise Mountain seemed to have lost their souls as they floated towards the mountaintop.

Zhou Wen stood outside Paradise Mountain and felt his mind go adrift. He almost walked into Paradise Mountain.

Thankfully, his willpower was too strong. He was only slightly dazed before he immediately recovered.

The Jade Rabbit fell into a trance again as Zhou Wen stored it into the Chaos Bead. Zhou Wen originally imagined that he couldn't use the Chaos Bead without the First Order of Chaos, but he realized that his Essence Energy could still activate the Chaos Bead without any problems.

This made Zhou Wen suspect that it wasn't that the Essence Energy Arts were unusable. They were, for some reason, temporarily unusable.

Ice Maiden's eyes narrowed as she charged toward the top of Paradise Mountain. Soon, a terrifying collision sounded.

Seeing that there weren't many rats left on Paradise Mountain, Zhou Wen decided to walk in himself. He planned on picking up the dimensional crystals and Companion Eggs.

He especially wanted the dimensional crystals. Zhou Wen happened to need to build up his stats. The thirteen red-robed rats had dropped five stat crystals and a Companion Egg. It was perfect.

Even a Mythical creature couldn't withstand the psyche influence from the mountaintop, but Zhou Wen could still maintain self-control. After walking into Paradise Mountain, he picked up the stat crystals and absorbed them without any hesitation, allowing his stats to rapidly increase.

Just as Zhou Wen picked up the Companion Egg, he saw a stream of light slash down from the mountaintop. It was an ancient sword.

If Zhou Wen hadn't been able to see the power of the Terror grade, he probably would have died. He would have been slain by the ancient sword.

Clang!

The Demonic Sword automatically unsheathed itself and blocked the ancient sword.

To Zhou Wen's surprise, the Demonic Sword failed to gain the upper hand in the clash with the ancient sword. It looked like they were evenly matched.

One had to know that not only was the Demonic Neonate terrifying, but it also had Grim Demon's power inside. Grim Demon was already extremely powerful at the Terror grade. With such an augmentation, it only managed to fight the ancient sword to a draw. The ancient sword's strength was shocking.

Out of Death Valley, Netherworld City, the Endless Sea of Stars, and Paradise Mountain, I've already entered Netherworld City and the Endless Sea of Stars. Netherworld City has some extreme horror in it. It's impossible to see the real Netherworld City unless all the punishments are experienced. The Endless Sea of Stars also has terrifying existences like the Planet Devourer. Now, there's actually such a powerful creature in Paradise Mountain. As it fights Ice Maiden, it can also use an ancient sword to fight the Demonic Sword. The four mysterious dimensional zones in the desert really aren't simple. Zhou Wen stood there watching the battle in his Galaxy Shell Dragon armor. The shockwave from the battle between the two swords hit Zhou Wen, causing him to retreat uncontrollably. His feet left two deep grooves in the ground.

Amidst this impact, Zhou Wen discovered a strange phenomenon.

Under the impact of the terrifying sword beam, Zhou Wen realized that marks had appeared on his Wheel of Destiny.

Zhou Wen originally thought that the Wheel of Destiny had been injured by a Terror-grade power, or that the injuries from reversing the Wheel of Destiny hadn't completely healed. He believed that these cracks were a result of the powerful collision.

However, he soon realized that this wasn't the case. This was because Zhou Wen could sense sword intent amidst the cracks that gradually appeared. It was a familiar yet unfamiliar sword intent.

Three thousand sword intents... Zhou Wen was pleasantly surprised.

The sword intent was clearly the three thousand sword intents, but it was different from his three thousand sword intents. It was even more powerful and terrifying. It was a true Mythical sword intent.

The power of the Sword Pill is still around... Then, are the other Life Providences and Life Soul powers also around? Zhou Wen looked at the cracks on the Wheel of Destiny and realized that the cracks were swords. All the swords pointed out and condensed into the shape of the Sword Pill.

When the Sword Pill had completely formed on the Wheel of Destiny, Zhou Wen immediately felt an uncontrollable terrifying sword intent erupt from the Wheel of Destiny.

The sword intent was like an emperor ruling over the world. At the same time, a powerful sword aura erupted from the Life Wheel.

The ancient sword seemed to be affected by Zhou Wen's sword intent as it abandoned the Demonic Sword. With a resplendent and terrifying sword aura, it streaked across the sky and instantly arrived in front of Zhou Wen.

Zhou Wen felt the sword aura in his body fill up, nearly causing his body to explode. He couldn't help but extend his hand and use his index and middle fingers as swords to stab out.

Boom!

A sword beam tore out of his finger and condensed into the Sword Pill that collided straight-on with the ancient sword.

The Sword Pill was shattered by the ancient sword, but the ancient sword was also deflected by the Sword Pill's force. It deviated from its original trajectory and flew past Zhou Wen's cheek.

Zhou Wen was pleasantly surprised. The Sword Pill and the Qi Refinement cultivator's abilities still existed. However, the way they existed was different from before. They were even stronger.

If they were a simulation in the past, they had now fused into Zhou Wen's body and become an instinct, not a simulated skill.

Before Zhou Wen could rejoice, he suddenly realized that the Sword Pill inscriptions on the Wheel of Destiny were rapidly disappearing. Soon, they vanished, preventing Zhou Wen from using its power.

Without the lure of the sword intent, the ancient sword was no longer interested in Zhou Wen. After being caught up by the Demonic Sword, it continued fighting.

What's going on? The Wheel of Destiny had clearly engraved the Sword Pill and obtained the unique skill of the Wheel of Destiny. Why is it gone again? Zhou Wen frowned in thought as he carefully recalled what had happened. He immediately had some ideas.

Zhou Wen focused and calmed his mind as he recalled his insights from cultivating the Qi Refinement Art and his understanding of Sword Pill.

He engraved his Wheel of Destiny with his mind. Indeed, as his thoughts and large amounts of Essence Energy surged in, patterns appeared on the Wheel of Destiny again.

Finally, the engravings transformed into the shape of the Sword Pill. However, this Sword Pill's appearance was somewhat different from before. This was a Sword Pill that Zhou Wen had drawn according to his understanding, making it somewhat different from before.

Drawing the Sword Pill consumed a large amount of Zhou Wen's Essence Energy, but with Slaughterer's help, the Essence Energy expenditure wasn't a problem.

Once the Sword Pill was formed, the supercilious sword intent appeared and attracted the ancient sword's attention again. Seeing the ancient sword slash at him again, Zhou Wen stabbed out with the Sword Pill once more.

Boom!

This time, Zhou Wen was in an even worse state. He was sent flying as he rolled down Paradise Mountain like a ball.

However, Sword Pill still managed to withstand the ancient sword's strike. Despite it shattering, Zhou Wen wasn't injured.

Just as Zhou Wen had expected, the moment the Sword Pill shattered, the marks on the Wheel of Destiny vanished.

My Wheel of Destiny is called No Engravings. It's very difficult to leave a mark on it. Even if it's engraved, it's only temporary and can't exist for long... In other words, even with the Wheel of Destiny's ability, it's only temporary. Every time I use one, I have to engrave it myself... However, in that case... Since I can engrave Sword Pill... Can I also engrave other Life Souls? Zhou Wen felt mixed emotions.

Although he had finally discovered a way to use the Wheel of Destiny, this method was a little strange. Every time he used it, he had to engrave it himself. If it was a sudden battle, how would he have the time?

However, Zhou Wen soon thought of something that made him so excited that he immediately wanted to verify it.

In the past, he couldn't circulate two Essence Energy Arts at the same time, so he couldn't use two Life Providences and two Life Souls at the same time. But now, it was different.

If the abilities of those Essence Energy Arts had already become his instinct, could he carve out two Life Wheel patterns at the same time and use two or more abilities?

Without any hesitation, Zhou Wen immediately used his mind to draw on the Wheel of Destiny again. This time, he wasn't drawing the Sword Pill, but Primordial Human Sovereign.

He wanted to see if he could draw another Life Wheel symbol or if he could only draw Sword Pill.

The outcome delighted Zhou Wen greatly. As he inscribed his understanding and insights of the Ancient Sovereign Sutra, he indeed drew a pattern that resembled the Primordial Human Sovereign on the Wheel of Destiny.

The reason it was only a resemblance was because the Life Wheel symbol wasn't the Primordial Human Sovereign from before, but an upgraded version. It was a true Mythical power.

As the Ancient Sovereign symbols appeared on the Wheel of Destiny, a shadow appeared in front of Zhou Wen. Without a doubt, it was the upgraded Primordial Human Sovereign.

Chapter 1087: Can't Last Long Enough

Translator: CKtalon

Zhou Wen suppressed the excitement in his heart and continued carving on the blank spot on the Wheel of Destiny. This time, he was carving the Sword Pill.

The Sword Pill was also engraved on the Wheel of Destiny bit by bit. As for the Ancient Sovereign symbol on the other side, it didn't disappear. When the Sword Pill symbol was completed, the Sword Pill tore out of his fingers again, Zhou Wen nearly moaned in bliss.

Looking at the coexisting Sword Pill and Ancient Sovereign, Zhou Wen felt that Lady Luck hadn't abandoned him.

Thank you, Holy Mother, Jade Emperor, God of Fortune... Just as Zhou Wen was feeling excited, the Ancient Sovereign shadow suddenly vanished. It turned out that the Ancient Sovereign symbol on the Wheel of Destiny was disappearing. It was no longer complete.

Only then did Zhou Wen gloomily realize that even if he didn't fight, the marks on the Wheel of Destiny would quickly vanish.

The name 'No Engravings' sure is apt. I really can't engrave anything on it. Zhou Wen was somewhat helpless. Although he gained the possibility of using multiple abilities at the same time, the Wheel of Destiny's characteristics were too odd, making things a little troublesome.

Is there any way to permanently preserve the engravings? Zhou Wen felt that he should spend some time studying it in the future. Even if it only lasted a little longer, it would be a huge improvement for him.

Grim Demon fought the ancient sword and Ice Maiden fought the unknown creature on the mountaintop, but Zhou Wen was having fun drawing at the foot of the mountain.

After various tests, Zhou Wen confirmed that he could draw the eight Life Souls. Furthermore, as long as his insights were different, what he drew would be different every time.

The deeper Zhou Wen's insights were, the stronger the Wheel of Destiny patterns he drew and the longer they could stay on. They would be stronger as well.

The only thing Zhou Wen couldn't draw was the marks that the Lost Immortal Sutra should have. This was because he knew the least about it. The Lost Immortal Sutra didn't need him to comprehend it or cultivate it. It would automatically circulate. As long as his stats reached a certain level, he could directly advance.

It was clearly the foundation of Zhou Wen's Essence Energy Art, but the one he knew the least about.

If I can carve the Lost Immortal Sutra on the Wheel of Destiny one day, will those marks disappear again? A thought flashed through Zhou Wen's mind.

There was no answer, but Zhou Wen had found a direction to make himself stronger. The deeper his understanding of Essence Energy Arts, the longer the marks left on the Wheel of Destiny would last. Perhaps one day, when he was strong enough, the marks would exist forever.

After figuring out the situation, Zhou Wen placed his attention on the battle on Paradise Mountain. The Demonic Sword and ancient sword were still engaged in battle, with no victor determined.

On the mountaintop, Ice Maiden seemed to be gradually falling into a disadvantage. Zhou Wen circulated the Wheel of Destiny and carved out the Heaven-Opening Scripture before flying to a spot closer to the mountaintop.

Soon, Zhou Wen saw the creature that was fighting Ice Maiden. It was also a ratman, but the ratman looked more like a human than the gray-robed and red-robed rats.

It was dressed in a white suit with golden-framed glasses on its face and a white top hat decorated with black lines on its head. It looked very strange.

What the hell is this? Zhou Wen was alarmed. This was the first time he had seen such a dimensional creature.

What was even stranger was that not only did the ratman possess powerful psyche skills, but its movement technique was also extremely strange. It was as fleeting as smoke. In its hand was a gun.

It was in the shape of a revolver. It looked a little like a Smith Wesson 500, but it was bigger and had a thicker barrel. Most of the gun was silver-white metal in color, and a small portion had gray patterns. It had an indescribable beauty.

Ice Maiden could withstand the ratman's psyche attacks, but the revolver caused her a lot of trouble.

She seemed to be afraid of the bullets in the gun and didn't dare to be hit by them. She would dodge every time, putting her at a disadvantage. It looked like it was going to be very difficult for her to persist.

Zhou Wen couldn't tell what kind of power was in the bullet. Although he could tell that it was at the Terror grade, the bullet was too fast. His vision couldn't keep up.

"Ice Maiden, come back." As Zhou Wen spoke, he summoned Banana Fairy. At the same time, he quickly retreated and left the Paradise Mountain area.

Firstly, the Heaven-Opening Scripture of the Highest Elder had already vanished from his Life Wheel. Secondly, Banana Fairy's attacks didn't differentiate between friend and foe. It would be a hindrance if he stayed there.

Ice Maiden knew how powerful Banana Fairy was. Even Grim Demon was left in a tragic state from her winds. She wouldn't fare better.

The strange ratman didn't know how powerful Banana Fairy was. When it saw a beautiful fairy floating over with a banana leaf, it raised the revolver and shot Banana Fairy three times.

Banana Fairy pouted and blew out a gust of Supreme Yin Wind.

Just like the bullets in The Matrix, the three bullets suddenly slowed down. Zhou Wen finally saw them clearly.

The bullet head looked like it was made of crystal, but its appearance was somewhat strange. It was like a miniature ghost, looking extremely sinister.

Not only did the three bullets slow down, but frost even formed on them. In the blink of an eye, they were thrown back in the wind.

The strange-looking ratman was also blown away. As there were no obstructions nearby, the ratman and bullets were sent flying. They flew into the distance with the yellow sand and quickly vanished.

I wonder if the ratman is dead? Zhou Wen watched as it was blown away. He didn't even know where to pick up the dimensional crystal if there was one.

Even if it really was dead, the dimensional crystal might have already been taken away by other creatures by the time he rushed over.

Clang!

The ancient sword that was fighting the Demonic Sword suddenly lost control and fell from the sky, landing on the ground. Furthermore, it was no longer in its Terror form.

Eh, this sword isn't a dimensional creature? Zhou Wen immediately realized that there was something wrong with the ancient sword.

If the ancient sword was a dimensional creature, being able to fight the Demonic Sword for so long was a little shocking, but it was still acceptable.

However, if it was only a weapon that was controlled by the ratman, it would be abnormal for it to fight the Demonic Sword for so long. After all, the ratman didn't seem to be that strong.

Zhou Wen walked closer and looked at the ancient sword that had fallen to the ground. He hadn't looked at it carefully before, but now that he was carefully sizing it up, he realized that it was indeed somewhat odd.

It looked like it wasn't made of gold, jade, iron, or steel. Furthermore, it didn't seem to have a sharp edge. It looked like it was sheathed in a scabbard, but there was no opening to the scabbard. It looked like it was one.

The ancient sword remained motionless on the ground. He was certain that the ratman had been controlling it previously. Now, he didn't know if the ratman was too far away from it or if it was already dead. In any case, the sword was no longer under its control.

Zhou Wen carefully sized up the ancient sword and saw that there were words engraved on the hilt. When he looked at it, his eyes widened as his pupils constricted like needles.

Chapter 1088: Substitute Fighter

Translator: CKtalon

On the hilt of the sword, the words "Immortal Culling" were engraved.

Is this thing for real? Zhou Wen widened his eyes as he looked at the ancient sword. He found it unbelievable that it was the real Immortal Culling Sword.

If one were to look at the two words "Immortal Culling" alone, they weren't anything impressive. They were even a little tacky. However, if one added the word "sword" behind the two words, it would be a little terrifying.

If there were three swords beside this sword—Immortal Vanquishing, Immortal Entrapment, and Immortal Peril—it would be even more terrifying.

The legendary Four Swords of Immortal Vanquishing were a terrifying existence that had truly killed all immortals and fiends. They were the most powerful Dharma treasure of the legendary Sect Master.

It was difficult to describe how powerful the four swords were. In comparison, an existence like the Nine-Tailed Fox in Chess Mountain was no different from a chicken waiting to be slaughtered in front of the real Immortal Culling Sword.

Any one of the powerful existences that the four swords had killed could defeat the Nine-Tailed Fox.

Ignoring the four swords, just any one of them would probably make Zhou Wen invincible on Earth if he could completely master them.

Of course, the premise was that this sword was really the Immortal Culling Sword. This ancient sword might only share the same name as the legendary one.

Zhou Wen didn't dare take the risk. He summoned Tyrant Behemoth and got it to pick up the sword.

Immortal Culling Sword didn't react at all. Tyrant Behemoth brandished it twice, but it didn't discover any special energy fluctuations. It didn't have the same might as before.

How did that ratman control it? With a thought, Zhou Wen summoned the Earth Elemental Beast and chased after the ratman with Immortal Culling Sword.

Regardless of whether this sword was the real Immortal Culling Sword or not, it possessed rather powerful strength. If he could figure out how to control it, it would be of great help.

Banana Fairy's fan had blown the ratman far away. Zhou Wen followed the huge trail left by the wind and ran for hundreds of kilometers before he finally lost track of the trail. However, he didn't see the strange ratman either.

It's not dead? Zhou Wen used Truth Listener to search the vicinity, but he didn't find any traces of the ratman. He wanted to return to Paradise Mountain.

However, after walking for a long time, he couldn't even see Paradise Mountain. It was as if it had vanished into thin air.

Zhou Wen knew that it would probably be very difficult to find Paradise Mountain again. All he could do was switch on his phone. He had successfully downloaded the Paradise Mountain dungeon and entered it in-game.

There were many gray-robed rats in-game, so Zhou Wen had a great time killing them.

Soon, thirteen red-robed rats appeared. Zhou Wen wasn't in the mood to waste time with them. He got Demonic Neonate to release the Demonic Sword and killed them.

A few dimensional crystals dropped. After Zhou Wen absorbed the dimensional crystals, his Strength reached 67, his Speed reached 71, his Constitution reached 54, and his Essence Energy reached 70.

However, Zhou Wen's mind was still on the strange ratman. Without carefully looking at his stats, he led Demonic Neonate up the mountain.

What puzzled Zhou Wen was that he didn't see the strange ratman atop Paradise Mountain.

There was a hole at the top of the mountain. It was the size of a bowl, but when he looked inside, it was bottomless, as though there was no end.

Zhou Wen summoned the Earth Elemental Beast to go down, but after crawling for a long time, it failed to reach the bottom. It was as though there was no bottom.

How strange. What's going on? Zhou Wen knew that there was definitely something wrong with the hole. Otherwise, with the Earth Elemental Beast's speed, it would have probably crawled to the other side of Earth in half a day.

He thought of all sorts of solutions and even got Banana Fairy to inject wind in. However, the terrifying Supreme Yin Wind vanished without a trace. He had no idea how deep the hole was.

Zhou Wen had no choice but to take the Immortal Culling Sword with him. He planned on returning to Luoyang first.

Along the way, Zhou Wen grinded all sorts of Mythical creatures in-game. He planned on raising his stats. After all, having a powerful body was the foundation. He would have an advantage in battle.

...

On the cube's arena, a white beam descended from the sky. In the white beam was a faint shadow.

After the light descended, it landed on Jiuyue's body and vanished in a flash.

"What was that?"

"I didn't see it clearly. Is it a Companion Beast summoned by Jiuyue?"

"Some kind of skill?"

Everyone discussed spiritedly. They were momentarily unsure what it was.

Zhong Ziya looked at Jiuyue and frowned.

Jiuyue's pupils turned white. Although nothing else had changed, his aura was clearly different.

"Who are you?" Zhong Ziya asked Jiuyue.

"You aren't worthy of knowing my name," Jiuyue replied indifferently as he looked at Zhong Ziya.

With that said, most people understood what was going on.

"Holy sh*t, that works? Aren't those fellows from the dimension too shameless?"

"They aren't satisfied with a tag-team battle, and are now using substitutes?"

"How f*cking disgusting. Although I don't like people like Ya, I hate shameless people even more."

"Ya, kill him."

The Federation was in a frenzy. Even the devils overseas didn't look happy.

"They really don't treat us humans as people," Uesugi Nao muttered to herself with a cold expression. If she could enter the arena now, she would help him regardless of which faction Ya belonged to.

Many people had the same thoughts as Uesugi Nao, but humans weren't dimensional creatures. No one could break the rules of the cube.

However, Zhong Ziya didn't show any emotions. He just said calmly, "Alright. Anyway, I don't have the habit of remembering the names of losers."

"Ignorance is also a form of bliss. Cherish your last moments of happiness." Jiuyue wasn't angry as he slowly raised his palm.

There was no shocking glow on his palm. With a casual grab, Zhong Ziya, who was thousands of meters away, somehow appeared in front of him and was grabbed by the neck.

It felt as if the space between them had vanished.

Crack! Ya's neck snapped as his head fell.

However, Ya's decapitated body exploded into a white fog, turning into a beheaded puppet that fell to the ground.

The spectators broke out into a cold sweat before feeling relieved. Now, most humans hoped that Ya could win.

Jiuyue seemed to have expected this. He grabbed again and Ya, who had just reappeared, appeared in front of him again. The space between the two of them vanished just like that.

Clang!

This time, it was Ya's true body. He raised Primordial Immortal Sword and blocked Jiuyue's palm, but Jiuyue's palm grabbed the sword along with his neck, lifting them up together.

Chapter 1089: The Fool Who Has Lived A Little Longer

Zhong Ziya's body suddenly turned into white mist and escaped from Jiuyue's hand.

Following that, the two of them entered their Terror forms. The average human couldn't see their figures, so they didn't know how the battle was proceeding.

However, from the short battle just now, Ya was clearly at a disadvantage. Jiuyue's spatial powers left a deep impression in the minds of people.

Furthermore, the dimensional creature attached to Jiuyue had a powerful aura. It made people feel that Zhong Ziya wasn't as powerful as before. It was like a child fighting an adult.

Zhou Wen had already walked out of the desert and arrived in a city that had been abandoned by humans. When he passed by the cube, he happened to see this scene and stopped to watch the battle.

Others couldn't see the Terror-grade battle, but when Zhou Wen's Wheel of Destiny moved, he immediately saw it clearly.

Zhou Wen was somewhat worried. Zhong Ziya's situation wasn't good.

As their power attributes weren't completely the same, there was no way to directly compare the power between the two. However, from the levels, Jiuyue didn't surpass the Terror grade. It was still at the Terror grade.

However, his usage of spatial powers and his understanding of them had reached a terrifying level. It was far from what the original Jiuyue could compare with. Zhong Ziya was far inferior.

Those fellows from the dimension are really shameless. They actually let a Calamity-grade creature control Jiuyue's body and power. Although their power levels are the same, his usage and realm are on a much higher level. The Guardian that Zhong Ziya fused with clearly has some spatial powers. His opponent is also a spatial-type, but his opponent's understanding is deeper than his. His opponent knows Zhong Ziya's various abilities and knows how to deal with him, but Zhong Ziya knows very little about Jiuyue's abilities. The difference in information will result in a huge disadvantage. Zhou Wen could tell how Zhong Ziya was in danger.

Furthermore, Zhong Ziya's previous battles had exposed too many of his abilities, allowing his opponent to understand him better.

Zhong Ziya's every move seemed to be within Jiuyue's expectations. The battle was extremely difficult, and the injuries on his body increased.

If not for his various escape techniques and clone abilities, he would have been killed by Jiuyue long before now.

However, the escape technique had its limits. It was impossible for him to have an inexhaustible supply of clones. Zhou Wen could tell that Zhong Ziya's situation was very bad.

Just as Zhong Ziya escaped, he suffered another heavy blow. The terrifying spatial power tore through his body.

Boom!

Zhong Ziya's body slammed into the arena and was no longer in his Terror form. His white robe was already dyed red with blood. The wound on his chest almost extended across his entire chest.

He held the hilt of the sword with his blood-stained hand and supported his body. He could barely stand as his body swayed. His wounds were still bleeding. He looked like he was in a bad situation.

"This is unfair!" A young girl clenched her fists and shouted angrily.

There were many people who had the same thoughts as her, but there was nothing they could do. Even if they knew that it was unfair, they were powerless to change anything. There was no fairness in this world.

Jiuyue also dispelled his Terror form. He looked at Zhong Ziya, who was covered in blood, and said, "You were lucky not to die from this strike. You actually didn't take the opportunity to quit. You really have a death wish."

With that said, Jiuyue prepared to attack and kill Zhong Ziya.

"You're at the Calamity grade?" Zhong Ziya asked as he held the hilt of his sword with both hands to support his body so that he wouldn't collapse.

"At least you aren't ignorant," Jiuyue answered.

"The Calamity grade is indeed very strong," Zhong Ziya continued.

"That's an unimaginable level for you humans. It's also a power that you can't understand. In my eyes, you are no different from an ant. Therefore, don't try to make an enemy of us. That will only bring about a calamity for you humans," Jiuyue said matter-of-factly.

"What a pity." Zhong Ziya suddenly sighed.

"What's the pity?" Jiuyue asked with a frown.

"Unfortunately, you made a mistake," Zhong Ziya said.

"Oh, what mistake?" Jiuyue looked at Zhong Ziya with interest. To him, Zhong Ziya was like a joke.

"You shouldn't have come here," Zhong Ziya said seriously.

"Why shouldn't I be here?" Jiuyue continued asking.

"Killing you at this level is nothing. I want to kill you at the Calamity grade. Therefore, you shouldn't have come here." Zhong Ziya was still very serious, showing no intention of joking.

However, Jiuyue laughed as though he had heard an extremely funny joke. "Do you think that you have a chance of killing me just because we are both at the Terror grade? How ignorant are you to have such thoughts? Even if our powers are about the same, our levels and understandings are different. Our actual combat ability is worlds apart. I only need to move my fingers to kill you. It's useless even if you want to self-destruct. You can't injure me."

Jiuyue's words had a defeating effect, but no one could refute him. Ya was considered almost the best among humans, but in front of the dimensional creature that possessed Jiuyue, he was suppressed to the point of being unable to resist.

Everyone fell silent. They had nowhere to vent their anger.

Ya was the one being humiliated on stage, but Jiuyue's words were also a form of contempt for the entire human race.

However, Zhong Ziya didn't reveal any special emotions. He looked at Jiuyue and said, "That's right. Your realm is very high, and your understanding of power and the laws is far above mine. Unfortunately, you don't understand humans."

"Why should I understand humans?" Jiuyue was no longer in the mood to continue talking to Zhong Ziya. He raised his hand and grabbed him. The space between the two vanished without a trace. Zhong Ziya appeared in front of him as though he had offered his neck into his hand.

Zhong Ziya, who had his neck clasped by Jiuyue, gradually had a burning look in his eyes. His eyes turned red as he continued, "If you understand humans, you should know that humans are a species that constantly make mistakes and learn. People like you who have a lifespan of ten thousand years and can even live forever wouldn't understand how good humans are at learning given their lifespans only last decades."

With that said, Zhong Ziya's aura suddenly turned domineering. Terrifying Essence Energy erupted like a volcano, blasting away Jiuyue's hand.

"Unlike you, I wasn't born ten thousand years ago. Ten thousand years later, you stand before me like a giant." Zhong Ziya's aura became more and more terrifying. He had already entered his Terror form and vanished from everyone's sight. However, his crazy voice still echoed.

"Everything that has been given to you over the past ten thousand years is just a moment of grandeur. The real you is just a fool who has lived a little longer."

These words were extremely arrogant, but the humans watching felt zeal and ardor pump through their veins.

"Well said. Nice tirade." Xia Liuchuan couldn't help but praise.

"He's just a fool who has lived a little longer. Haha, what an interesting fellow." Zhang Chunqiu laughed until his tears were about to fall.

"I suddenly feel that it's not bad to have such a friend," Dugu Ge, who had always abided by the mantra 'silence is golden,' suddenly said.

"What a pity. He said that he no longer makes friends," Zhang Chunqiu said.

"I'll treat him as a friend. What does his willingness to make friends have to do with me?" Dugu Ge said expressionlessly.

"That's... true..." Zhang Chunqiu realized that he couldn't refute Dugu Ge.

"That's totally right. I also want to shamelessly acknowledge such an interesting person as a friend," Xia Liuchuan said with a smile.

As for Jiuyue, he was extremely furious. Instantly, he entered his Terror form and wanted Zhong Ziya dead once and for all.

Zhou Wen was feeling extremely uneasy. Zhong Ziya was severely injured, and those injuries were as genuine as can be. It would be too dangerous if he continued fighting.

However, Zhong Ziya had no intention of giving up on the battle. He continued battling Jiuyue.

Yet, although Jiuyue still had the advantage, he wasn't able to completely suppress Zhong Ziya like before.

Zhong Ziya's combat strength was constantly improving.

No, it shouldn't be said that it was his combat strength. His power hadn't become stronger, but his understanding and realm of power had become stronger. He was growing at an unbelievable speed.

"No... Impossible..." Jiuyue almost couldn't believe that such a thing would happen.

In such a short period of time, Zhong Ziya seemed to have completely understood and absorbed the various abilities and realms he had previously displayed.

The methods he had used previously were no longer effective against Zhong Ziya. Jiuyue had to use new abilities or have a higher understanding of nomological power to continue suppressing Zhong Ziya.

However, once he used it, it was useless to use the same method again against Zhong Ziya. This was because Zhong Ziya already understood the power and realm.

They were both spatial-type and at the Terror grade. The advantage that Jiuyue had was his realm and superior understanding.

Now, this advantage was rapidly being eroded. Jiuyue's expression finally changed.

Now, he just wanted to kill Zhong Ziya quickly. He did his best and pushed Zhong Ziya's strength to the limits, leaving wounds on his body.

However, those wounds weren't fatal. Furthermore, the chances of him injuring Zhong Ziya decreased.

Zhong Ziya's pupils had already turned into a strange red color. They were blood-red, evil and crazy. It made Jiuyue panic.

"You shouldn't have come." Zhong Ziya was grabbed in front of Jiuyue, but at that moment, Jiuyue didn't feel any joy from succeeding. Instead, he felt that something was amiss.

Crack!

Zhong Ziya's neck was snapped by Jiuyue again, but his beheaded body turned into a puppet.

Jiuyue's pupils constricted. He had actually failed to tell that it was Zhong Ziya's clone.

Realizing that something was amiss, he wanted to use space to teleport away, but he realized that Zhong Ziya was already behind him. The blood-stained lips were almost touching his ear. "I'll chop off your head."

Bam!

Jiuyue felt a huge force behind him as his body involuntarily flew forward.

Jiuyue wanted to extend the distance, but he suddenly realized that his body seemed to be locked in place. He couldn't extend the space any further. Furthermore, his body had been kicked out from his Terror state.

He felt that he had something on his back, but he couldn't see it. It was a strange blood-colored curse pattern that was imprinted on his back. It emitted an evil aura.

Jiuyue didn't have the luxury of time to look at what it was because Zhong Ziya had appeared behind him. He held Primordial Immortal Sword with both hands and slashed at his neck at an unbelievable speed.

As Jiuyue had been kicked out of his Terror form, all the spectators could see this scene.

Boom!

A beam of light flew out of Jiuyue's body. Although there was still a chance for him to fight to the death, the dimensional creature didn't wish to risk its life.

Just as Zhong Ziya had said, his true strength wasn't limited to what had been showcased. His true strength could easily crush Zhong Ziya to death. He didn't want to risk his life because of Zhong Ziya.

When the figure of light ascended, it turned around and took a glance. This glance nearly made him vomit blood.

The Primordial Immortal Sword in Zhong Ziya's hand hung around Jiuyue's neck. The blade had already reached his skin, but it didn't slash down.

"This... bastard..." The figure immediately understood.

There was only one possibility for him to hold back his sword and not slash down under such circumstances. Zhong Ziya had never planned on slashing down. Otherwise, with his strength and speed, it would be impossible for him to temporarily hold back his sword. Everything he had done previously was just to scare him.

Under such circumstances, Zhong Ziya actually dared to do such a thing. If he had known that this strike was a feint, the figure would have had a chance of killing Zhong Ziya.

However, not only did Zhong Ziya do it, but the figure had also been frightened. It couldn't tell the truth behind the strike.

"You're indeed an idiot," Zhong Ziya muttered as he looked at the figure that flew into the void. He returned his sword to its scabbard.

The figure suddenly shook in the void before instantly disappearing.

"Haha, this person is really interesting." Xia Liuchuan laughed until he couldn't straighten his back.

"This isn't interesting. He's risking his life. If that dimensional creature saw that his strike was a feint, he would probably be dead by now," Dugu Ge said solemnly.

"To dare slash out such a strike under such circumstances, this person is either a lunatic or an idiot," Zhang Chunqiu said with a strange expression as he looked at Zhong Ziya on stage.

"He doesn't look like a lunatic," Dugu Ge said.

"That's why he's an idiot," Xia Liuchuan said.

"Idiot? That's good," Zhang Chunqiu said thoughtfully.

In the arena, Jiuyue regained control of his body. He looked at Zhong Ziya with a complicated expression and didn't say a word. He only cupped his fists and bowed slightly before admitting defeat and leaving the arena.

"Ya... Ya... Ya..." At that moment, many of the humans who were watching the battle shouted Ya's name, forgetting the fact that Ya only had half a human bloodline.

Ya stood in the arena. Although his body was covered in blood, he left people in awe. None of the Guardians dared to challenge him again.

There were very few Terror-grade Guardians to begin with. There were even fewer who had Ya's realm and comprehension. Among the Guardians who were willing to fight, no one had the confidence to defeat him.

Suddenly, Ya was ejected from the cube's arena. At the same time, his name vanished from the cube's rankings.

Everyone was taken aback before they suddenly understood what had happened. Instantly, the entire Federation and overseas were in an uproar.

"Holy sh*t, he was kicked out of the rankings just because they can't win. Can they be any more shameless?"

"Don't play if you are a sore loser! Why the f*ck are we fighting in the arena? Can't you just decide on who's first place?"

"Ya... so pitiful..."

"Screw whatever King of Earth. Ya is the real King of Earth."

Instantly, the entire Federation and overseas were enraged, but what was the point? Ya was still kicked out of the rankings. It was impossible for him to return to the rankings.

Zhou Wen's expression was nasty. He wasn't thinking about victory or defeat.

Whether Zhong Ziya could get first or if he had suffered grievances wasn't important to Zhou Wen.

However, Zhong Ziya had signed a betting contract. If he didn't get first place, he would have lost the bet. His body would suffer a backlash from the Guardian and he would completely lose himself.

Now, Zhou Wen wished he could immediately find Zhong Ziya and see how he was doing, but he had no idea where Zhong Ziya was.

"Grim Demon, what will happen if you lose after signing a betting contract?" Zhou Wen called Grim Demon out and asked with a cold expression.

Grim Demon replied with some schadenfreude, "A betting contract has a powerful binding effect on both parties. Even a Calamity-grade expert would find it difficult to violate it. I reckon that the kid's body should already belong to the Guardian of the bet."

Upon hearing Grim Demon's words, Zhou Wen knew that there was no hope. Even a Calamity expert couldn't escape the conditions of a betting contract. Zhong Ziya was most likely doomed.

No matter what, they won't let humans get first place, right? Zhou Wen looked at the ranking with cold eyes. The anger in his heart was indescribable as he walked towards the cube.

If Zhong Ziya were to be defeated, it would be because he was inferior. However, forcefully kicking him out and taking his life was unacceptable to Zhou Wen. He had nowhere to vent his anger.

When Grim Demon saw Zhou Wen walk towards the cube, he hurriedly chased after him and asked, "What are you doing?"

"To participate in the cube ranking battle," Zhou Wen answered.

Grim Demon hurriedly said, "Actually, you don't have to go. We are one. If I take first place, it's equivalent to you taking first place. Now that I'm first, I can guarantee that I can definitely secure first place and retrieve the Dimensional Wheel."

Zhou Wen naturally knew that Grim Demon winning meant that he had won. However, Zhou Wen didn't wish to win in such a manner, nor would he let Grim Demon win.

Although Grim Demon belonged to him, Grim Demon also represented a race in the dimension. Grim Demon's win also meant that the race had won. This wasn't what Zhou Wen wanted.

"You are to stay here and wait for my challenge. You decide what to do." Zhou Wen unsummoned his Companion Beasts, leaving Grim Demon standing there before going up the cube.

As Ya had been kicked out, Grim Demon, who was originally second on the rankings, was first. After Zhou Wen got onto the cube, he injected his Essence Energy into it.

The cube immediately reacted. Among pure humans, only Zhou Wen could activate it.

As Guardians and dimensional creatures had natural names but humans didn't, his name was blank when the cube did a verification scan. Zhou Wen had to fill it in himself.

"Human." Zhou Wen only filled in one word.

As there were no other Guardians or Companion Beasts challenging Grim Demon, all the cubes in the world displayed his challenge request and name.

"Human!" All the humans were stunned when they saw this name.

This was because dimensional creatures and Guardians had natural names. Even if humans participated in the battle after contracting Guardians, the cube would only show the Guardian's name and not the human's.

And 'Human' clearly wasn't a Guardian's name.

"It should be a human like Ya, right?" People guessed.

"Even if he's a human like Ya and as powerful as Ya, I'm afraid it's useless. He will ultimately be kicked out. Those b*stards in the dimension won't let humans get first place. Not even half a human can."

"Just defeating Grim Demon to vent our anger would be nice though."

"How can it be that simple to defeat Grim Demon? That Grim Demon is definitely at the Terror grade. There might be a chance but only if this person is as powerful as Ya."

Everyone discussed spiritedly. They basically believed that the challenger was a monster that was half-human and half-Guardian.

In fact, most humans didn't acknowledge people like Wang Mingyuan and Ya. The reason they had supported Ya previously was partly because Ya was so outstanding and partly because they had no other choice.

Pure humans couldn't even leave their names on the rankings. They had no chance of supporting them.

As people discussed, Grim Demon accepted the challenge. The scene on the cube's screen changed to the cube's arena. Two figures appeared in the cube's arena.

One of them was naturally Grim Demon. However, most people wanted to know what the fellow who claimed to be "Human" looked like. Although they knew that it was impossible for him to be a pure human, most of them had a sense of affinity towards him for daring to use the name 'Human.'

However, when they saw the figure, they were stunned.

The figure wore human clothes and looked like a human from head to toe. Apart from a white jade mask on his face, he looked like a human.

"He really looks like a human?"

"It's impossible for him to be a pure human. He must be half-human like Ya."

"But there's no sign of mutation on him at all."

"Don't you see him wearing a mask? The mutation part is definitely on his face."

Everyone was in a flurry of discussion, but Zhou Wen stood there motionless as he looked at Grim Demon with a complicated expression.

The mask on his face was called Moonlit Mask Armor. It was transformed from a Companion Beast, Moonlit Rabbit.

The Moonlit Rabbit Companion Beast was formed from the pearl he had obtained from Moon Goddess. Although it had a Mythical foundation, it was still at the Mortal stage.

Moonlit Rabbit: Mortal (Evolvable)

Strength: 11

Speed: 11

Constitution: 11

Essence Energy: 11

Talent Skill: Moonlight Transformation

Companion Form: Facial Armor

The reason he was using the Moonlight Mask was because of the Moonlight Transformation skill. Although it was only a facial armor, the existence of this skill prevented others from seeing his true identity.

Zhou Wen didn't wish to become famous. He only wanted to vent his anger and prevent any Guardian from becoming the King of Earth.

When people saw Grim Demon finally move, they stopped their discussion and focused their gazes on Grim Demon.

Everyone knew very well how terrifying Grim Demon was. Many people even believed that he wasn't weaker than Ya. He had only admitted defeat because of his relationship with Ya.

They also wanted to know how powerful Grim Demon would be if he really unleashed his combat strength.

Grim Demon walked in front of Zhou Wen step by step. Everyone believed that Grim Demon was about to attack, but Grim Demon's next move petrified everyone.

Chapter 1092: Grim Demon's Stand

Translator: CKtalon

Grim Demon knew that it was time for him to choose a side, but he didn't feel too conflicted. He chose to stand on Zhou Wen's side.

Guardians weren't pure dimensional creatures. They were just tools created by dimensional creatures. He had no feelings for them.

Of course, this wasn't the reason he chose Zhou Wen. It was mainly because Demonic Neonate was Zhou Wen's Companion Beast. Demonic Neonate was definitely on Zhou Wen's side, so Grim Demon had no choice. He would choose whichever side Demonic Neonate stood.

It wasn't difficult to choose a side. The difficult part was how to make the stand.

Grim Demon knew that Zhou Wen didn't trust him, and Demonic Neonate listened to Zhou Wen. Therefore, Grim Demon felt that this was a very good opportunity. If he did well and obtained Zhou Wen's trust, he might be able to escape the awkward position of being "reserve rations."

Grim Demon gritted his teeth and made up his mind. He looked at Zhou Wen and walked over.

Everyone looked forward to the beginning of the battle as their gazes focused on Grim Demon. Now, they only hoped that Grim Demon and Human wouldn't just disappear again.

Grim Demon didn't vanish; instead, he slowly walked in front of Zhou Wen. Then, under everyone's incredulous gazes, he genuflected like a knight and pressed his right hand to his heart. He said to Zhou Wen, "I swear upon my name as Grim Demon that I'm willing to sign a master-slave contract with you and pledge eternal loyalty to you until death..."

The entire world fell dead silent. People couldn't believe their eyes and ears.

Guardians were Guardians. How honorable and powerful were they? Without exception, the humans who had Guardians had to work extremely hard to obtain the Guardian's recognition before they had a chance to sign a contract with them.

There were even many people who were willing to pay the price of their lives to contract a Guardian.

It could be said that although the Guardian contract was an equal contract, humans were actually the weaker party in the contract. They were the ones being chosen.

As for the Guardians, their strength paled in comparison to Grim Demon's. They were much weaker.

Such a powerful Grim Demon had actually taken the initiative to request a contract with the person in front of him. Furthermore, he had requested to sign a master-slave contract. This was completely unheard of.

"Guardians can also sign a master-slave contract?"

"Wait, Grim Demon wants to sign a contract with that person. In other words, that person definitely hasn't contracted a Guardian."

A human who has fused with a Guardian can still contract with another Guardian? If it's not possible, could this person be a pure human?

"That's impossible. Pure humans are unable to advance to the Mythical stage, so it's impossible for them to activate the cube to enter the ranking battle."

"Who is this person? He's only wearing a mask. Does anyone recognize him?"

It wasn't just the average person. Even the veteran experts of the six families were shocked. They had never seen such a thing before.

"Old Qiu, can you tell who this person is?" Xia Liuchuan asked.

"I can't tell. There's some kind of power that has changed his build. This build isn't his original build," Zhang Chunqiu answered.

Messages kept being exchanged overseas. They hoped to find out Human's true identity.

Zhou Wen looked at Grim Demon with an odd expression. He could roughly guess Grim Demon's thoughts.

Seeing that Zhou Wen wasn't saying a word, Grim Demon had no choice but to maintain the stance of a knight taking an oath. He kept consoling himself inwardly. I'll put on a show. For Her Lady Demonic Neonate, I'll tolerate it.

Zhou Wen waved his hand, gesturing for Grim Demon to leave. He wasn't in the mood to put on an act. All he wanted to do now was kill Guardians, but he took note of Grim Demon's intentions.

Grim Demon hurriedly got up and admitted defeat before leaving the cube's arena.

"Holy sh*t, he doesn't want a Guardian who came knocking on his door?"

"That's Grim Demon—a top Guardian. He rejected him just like that?"

"Boss, if you don't want him, give him to me. I want him."

"This world must be crazy. Such a powerful Guardian took the initiative to request a master-slave contract, but he actually rejected it."

"Is Grim Demon that dim? He didn't even attack despite the embarrassment he suffered from Human. He even obediently admitted defeat. Isn't this too ridiculous?"

"I think Grim Demon knows how powerful Human is, so he took the initiative to request a master-slave contract. Furthermore, he didn't dare turn hostile."

"Never compare with others. They only serve to infuriate!"

It wasn't just Earth. The dimensional creatures watching this battle were also dumbfounded.

Grim Demon was a Guardian. Many dimensional creatures who had experienced the war on Earth in ancient times knew of him. He was also one of the top Guardians back then.

Grim Demon's actions were just too strange to them. It even made them suspect if Grim Demon was fake.

Soon, the various dimensional races ordered their Guardians on Earth to test Human and figure out what kind of existence Human was.

Due to the restrictions of the rules on Earth, no matter how powerful the dimensional races were, they would be punished by the rules if they personally descended. At most, they would maintain their standards at the Terror grade. They might even drop to the Mythical stage.

They couldn't personally test Zhou Wen either, so they could only observe him through the cube. The information they could obtain was very limited.

Before Zhou Wen went on stage, he had already thought it through. He had already drawn the Heaven-Opening Scripture of the Highest Heaven-Opening on his Wheel of Destiny. Furthermore, he constantly engraved it. Even if the engravings vanished, the subsequent engravings would be replenished, allowing him to maintain an active state of Heaven-Opening Scripture.

To others, this would expend a large amount of mental strength and Essence Energy, but to Zhou Wen, this expenditure was nothing.

Now, he only wanted to know if the Heaven-Opening Scripture, which could break through the various dimensional zones' taboo laws, could withstand the cube's laws.

If he couldn't withstand it and the dimensional creatures could kick him out like they had kicked Ya away, there would be zero chance. As long as they couldn't kick him out, he definitely wouldn't let any Guardian get first place.

However, Zhou Wen knew that dimensional creatures wouldn't use the cube's rules to kick him out immediately.

From the various actions of the dimensional creatures and the information he had obtained from Ice Maiden, he could tell that there were many races in the dimension. They restrained each other and often launched racial wars.

The cube wasn't something a single race could control. After all, the victor of the cube would allow a race to obtain control of Earth. It was impossible for the rest of the dimension to allow a race to completely control the cube.

It wasn't an easy task to obtain the approval of all the figures in power and use the rules to kick him out. Even if all the big shots could reach a consensus, it would definitely take some time. Otherwise, the fellows from the dimension wouldn't have gone through all the various troublesome methods to deal with Ya.

Chapter 1093: Tiger General's Might

The reason Zhou Wen maintained the state of the Heaven-Opening Scripture was to prevent any accidents.

If the bigwigs that had just kicked Ya out were still having a meeting, it would be too unjust for them to reach a conclusion and kick him out too.

Thankfully, what Zhou Wen was worried about didn't happen. No special power descended on him. Instead, the Guardians' challenges constantly appeared in front of him.

Zhou Wen took a look and realized that many Guardians who hadn't advanced to the Terror grade had issued a challenge to him. His heart stirred as he chose to accept the challenge from one of the Mythical Guardians.

The Guardian's name was Flaming Battle God. Zhou Wen really didn't know which family his contractor was from. However, just from the name, he knew that it was definitely a fire-elemental Guardian. Furthermore, its ranking wasn't high. It hadn't even entered the top ten. The possibility of it being at the Terror grade was almost zero.

Everyone couldn't help but feel disappointed when they saw that he had chosen Flaming Battle God and not the powerful Cave Era.

After all, Flaming Battle God was much weaker than Grim Demon. Even Grim Demon had automatically admitted defeat, so it was impossible for Flaming Battle God to be his match.

However, there were people who didn't think so. Now, many human experts knew that when Guardians contracted humans, they valued potential, not absolute strength. Grim Demon chose Human because of his talent, not because of his strength.

The human wearing the armor of Flaming Battle God entered the arena. He was originally a little nervous, afraid that the strange person in front of him was really as powerful as Grim Demon. Then, he would be in danger the moment he appeared.

However, when he saw that the other party had summoned a Companion Beast and had it rush over, it was clear that his opponent planned on letting a Companion Beast fight him. He immediately felt relieved and he became emboldened.

"Why is it a Companion Beast? A Companion Beast is definitely not a Guardian's match. Don't tell me he wants to use a Companion Beast to win?"

"From the looks of it, that Companion Beast seems to have some fire-elemental abilities."

"Does anyone know what Companion Beast that is? Why do I feel like I've never seen it before?"

The Companion Beast Zhou Wen had summoned was none other than the Mythical Fiend-Armored Tiger Soul General. It could be said to be the nemesis of fire-elemental powers. It was perfect for dealing with Flaming Battle God.

The reason Zhou Wen did so was because he didn't want to scare away the Guardian, nor did he want the big shots to use the cube's rules to kick him out.

If the Heaven-Opening Scripture couldn't withstand the cube's rules, he could at least kill a few Guardians before being kicked out.

"Using fire in front of me?" Seeing the strange flames burning in the Fiend-Armored Tiger Soul General's body rush over, the human wearing the armor of Flaming Battle God sneered. The flames on his body lit up as he condensed a huge flaming saber and slashed at the Fiend-Armored Tiger Soul General.

The Tiger Soul General raised its spear to block. After the flaming saber collided with the spear, it immediately transformed into a sea of fire that drowned the Tiger Soul General in flames.

Amidst the flames, the Tiger Soul General's armor turned red like iron in charcoal. It seemed as if it would melt into liquid metal at any moment.

"What's going on? Isn't using a Companion Beast to fight a Guardian a waste of time?"

"Not only is it a waste of time, but it's also a waste of Companion Beasts. A perfectly fine Companion Beast will probably be killed soon. That's a Mythical Companion Beast. It's such a waste."

"Quickly fight like Ya. Unleash your strength and kill the Guardian."

People clearly didn't wish to see a Companion Beast fight. Although Zhou Wen had previously showcased many of his Companion Beasts, it had only been for show and not a real battle.

To most people, it was impossible to use a Companion Beast to defeat a Guardian.

Under Zhou Wen's control, the Fiend-Armored Tiger Soul General seemed to charge at Flaming Battle God without any regard for its own safety. However, its armor had already been burned red. The situation didn't look good.

Flaming Battle God slashed out again with his flaming saber, hoping to defeat the Fiend-Armored Tiger Soul General.

The flaming saber struck the Fiend-Armored Tiger Soul General's body, causing sparks to fly. It was as though the iron liquid on his body had splattered. Furthermore, the Fiend-Armored Tiger Soul General was forced to retreat. Its body was enveloped by more flames and the Tiger Soul General could no longer be seen. All one could see was a figure wrapped in flames retreating in the sea of flames.

"He's actually not dead yet?" Flaming Battle God frowned slightly. He planned on finishing this Companion Beast quickly.

After all, wasting too much time on a Companion Beast was a disgrace to him.

He gathered his strength and slashed out the flaming saber repeatedly. The flaming saber slashed crazily at the Fiend-Armored Tiger Soul General in the sea of fire, forcing him to constantly retreat. More and more molten metal splattered out from his body, but after he retreated again and again, the Tiger Soul General that looked like it was about to collapse remained alive.

Flaming Battle God realized that something was amiss. He immediately stopped and used the Wheel of Destiny's power to repel the Tiger Soul General.

Terrifying flames turned from red to golden as they rose from Flaming Battle God's body. They condensed into a golden flaming chariot that charged at the Tiger Soul General with roaring battle intent.

Everything melted in the wake of the Golden Flaming Chariot. Even the red flames that originated from Flaming Battle God were melted by the golden flames.

Boom!

The Golden Flaming Chariot slammed into the Tiger Soul General's body. The flaming wheels spun crazily as though it wanted to crush and melt everything.

The Tiger Soul General's body was constantly pushed back by the Golden Flaming Chariot. Soon, it was pushed out of the sea of flames.

At that moment, people realized that the Tiger Soul General's body was burning with purple-red flames. It looked extremely strange. Even its armor had turned crystalline like an amethyst from the purple-red flames.

He wasn't injured at all. None of the previous attacks had harmed him.

The Tiger Soul General raised the spear with both hands and blocked the Golden Flaming Chariot. Not only did the flames of the Golden Flaming Chariot not injure him, but it also made the flames in his body burn brighter.

Flaming Battle God could tell that there was something wrong with the Fiend-Armored Tiger Soul General, but it was too late. With a boom, the spear in the Tiger Soul General's hand slammed down and shattered the Golden Flaming Chariot, turning it into golden flames that scattered.

In the next moment, the strange-looking ferocious tiger under the Fiend-Armored Tiger Soul General let out a roar and charged at Flaming Battle God.

When Flaming Battle God saw that the situation had gone south, he summoned a dragon and a war hammer. They were Mythical Companion Beasts. He rode the dragon and sent the war hammer towards the Fiend-Armored Tiger Soul General.

Despite fighting three alone, the Fiend-Armored Tiger Soul General's ferocious might did not decrease. The tiger beneath it leaped up and stepped on the dragon. Wherever the tiger claw passed, it left several wounds that burned with purple flames on the dragon's back, causing it to fall with a tragic cry.

The ferocious tiger used the momentum to pounce at Flaming Battle God. The spear in the Tiger Soul General's hand met the war hammer. The powerful impact sent the war hammer in Flaming Battle God's hand flying. He retreated as blood seeped out of his mouth. His expression changed drastically.

Chapter 1094: True Body Descends

Translator: CKtalon

The people who had been clamoring for Human to attack quickly fell silent. They watched the battle in a daze as their expressions gradually changed.

With the help of the two Mythical Companion Beasts—the dragon and war hammer—and the strength of a Guardian, everyone originally believed that this would be a battle without any suspense.

And indeed, there was no suspense. However, it was different from what they had imagined. The one being suppressed and ravaged was Flaming Battle God.

Looking at the Fiend-Armored Tiger Soul General that was charging across the arena like a demonic god, a question mark surfaced in many people's minds.

"What Companion Beast is this? It's freaking ferocious!"

"Why haven't I heard of such a ferocious Companion Beast before?"

"He vomited blood again. Flaming Battle God's armor is about to crack. Furthermore, he was beaten to such a state despite having the help of two Mythical Companion Beasts. This Companion Beast is really powerful."

"This isn't right. Isn't it said that Guardians will definitely defeat Companion Beasts? Why is he being thrashed?"

"Flaming Battle God likely hasn't unleashed his other ultimate moves, right?"

"What ultimate move? The Golden Flaming Chariot was his ultimate move."

The spear in the Tiger Soul General's hand danced wildly as it smashed into Flaming Battle God's chest, shattering his breastplate. He was sent flying like a sandbag. With the shattered armor pieces, Flaming Battle God tumbled a great distance in the arena before stopping.

The Tiger Soul General didn't stop. Demonic flames spewed out from its body as it arrived in front of Flaming Battle God like a demon.

There was no chance of Flaming Battle God winning the battle against the Tiger Soul General. The Tiger Soul General had absorbed too many flames early in the battle. Furthermore, the more he fought, the stronger he became. It would be too easy to defeat Flaming Battle God now.

The Flaming Battle God saw that the situation was going south and wanted to admit defeat to leave the arena.

Unfortunately, he was still a step too late. Zhou Wen had arrived not far behind him at some point in time. He held something that looked like a grenade in his hand and threw it at Flaming Battle God before quickly retreating.

Boom! Boom!

The energy produced by the explosion of the Ancient Splitting Tadpole's grenade shattered the already cracked and shattered Flaming Battle God armor into pieces. Furthermore, the explosions were continuous.

After the large Ancient Splitting Tadpole exploded, it split into smaller grenades that continued exploding. The continuous explosions almost instantly blasted the Flaming Battle God to pieces. He was deader than dead.

"He died just like that?" Some people couldn't believe that a Guardian had been blasted to death.

"So Guardians aren't as strong as I imagined. With powerful Companion Beasts, we can still kill them."

"That requires a Companion Beast to be strong enough. That person's Companion Beast is extremely strong."

"The grenade Companion Beast that killed the Flaming Battle God looks like the Ancient Splitting Tadpole from the previous Companion Beast showcase."

"Now that you mention it, it does seem like it!"

"Could this person be the owner of those Companion Beasts?"

"Holy sh*t, that's really possible!"

Soon, this news spread. All the major media outlets began reporting it. After all, people had a deep impression of the previous Companion Beast showcase.

However, this battle didn't stop the other Guardians from issuing challenges. Although there were fewer Guardians who issued a challenge, there were still quite a number of them. Many of them were at the Mythical stage.

From their point of view, although Zhou Wen's Companion Beast was powerful, it wouldn't be impossible to take it down.

Zhou Wen had Mythical Companion Beasts, but so did they. As long as they used them well, it wouldn't be difficult to defeat the Fiend-Armored Tiger Soul General.

Furthermore, many people could tell the problem with the Fiend-Armored Tiger Soul General. They knew that the Fiend-Armored Tiger Soul General could absorb fire-elemental powers and was extremely effective against Flaming Battle God. This was why Flaming Battle God had suffered such a tragic defeat.

Zhou Wen glanced at the challenge list and realized that Darkness Emissary who had been frightened away by Grim Demon was among the list. He was also the Guardian Zhou Ming had contracted.

This fellow actually dares to challenge me? Is he crazy? Zhou Wen knew Zhou Ming quite well.

He didn't deliberately find out more about Zhou Ming. However, with Grim Demon's name shaking the world, many media outlets had reported about Zhou Ming.

Grim Demon loved reading those reports and had deliberately read them out loud for them to hear. This was why Zhou Wen knew a little.

Zhou Wen felt that there was only one possibility for such a selfish and cowardly fellow to take the risk to challenge him. Something had given him the courage.

What could it be? Could it be that a dimensional Terror creature will descend on him like Jiuyue? Zhou Wen felt that it was impossible.

No matter how spineless a Calamity-grade dimensional creature was, it wouldn't choose the body of such a low-level human for its descent, right? Even if it wanted to choose, it would choose someone like Cave Era or Jiuyue.

Zhou Wen thought for a moment and chose Darkness Emissary as his next opponent.

Soon, Zhou Ming, who was wearing the Darkness Emissary armor, appeared in the arena. The moment he appeared, he began condensing the Door of Darkness.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Ming condensed the Door of Darkness very quickly.

Zhou Wen immediately saw the problem. Zhou Ming held a black crystal in his hand. Most of the power that condensed the Door of Darkness came from the black crystal.

Zhou Wen wasn't a madman like Ya, nor was he interested in knowing what the black crystal was or how the Door of Darkness was different from before.

Therefore, he immediately drew his Night Immaculate Sword. The sword that resembled smoke tore through the air and stabbed at Zhou Ming. He wanted to kill him along with Darkness Emissary before Zhou Ming could condense the Door of Darkness.

Although Night Immaculate wasn't absolutely invincible, Zhou Ming was currently condensing the Door of Darkness. He couldn't move at all. Once he moved, the channeling of the Door of Darkness would be interrupted. All his previous efforts would be in vain.

Zhou Ming watched as Night Immaculate flew over like a rainbow. He had no intention of dodging. The moment Night Immaculate stabbed into the Darkness Emissary armor, a golden light bloomed from his chest.

It was a golden rune that transformed into a golden barrier that protected Zhou Ming.

The Night Immaculate Sword crisscrossed and struck the golden barrier again and again, but it failed to slice through it.

Zhou Wen looked at the golden barrier and felt the power on it. No matter how stupid he was, he understood that be it the golden runes or the black crystal, it was definitely the work of the dimension.

Those with keen eyes could guess what had happened. They were very worried for Human, afraid that Ya's encounter would repeat itself.

Zhou Wen stared at the Door of Darkness. He knew that dimension's techniques weren't that simple. The truly terrifying thing would definitely be inside the Door of Darkness.

Could it be that a dimensional creature wants to use the Door of Darkness to descend personally? Zhou Wen thought to himself.

The Door of Darkness condensed at an extremely fast speed. It took only a moment for it to take shape. With a boom, the Door of Darkness opened. A roar that sounded like it came from the depths of an abyss came from deep within the Door of Darkness.

Is a dimensional creature descending personally? Zhou Wen stared intently at the Door of Darkness.

Chapter 1095: Darkness Domain Devil

Translator: CKtalon

Boom! Boom!

Terrifying footsteps sounded from the Door of Darkness. Every step seemed to shake the void.

Seeing a black figure walk out of the door, Zhou Wen retracted his Night Immaculate Sword and didn't continue attacking Zhou Ming because it was too late.

Through the cube, people gradually saw the creature that came out of the door. It was a monster that seemed to be enveloped by darkness. Its indistinct figure in the darkness was like a huge minotaur.

With its huge bull's horn, arrow-shaped tail, and legs with reverse joints it walked out of the Door of Darkness step by step and landed in the arena. The entire arena seemed to be enveloped by the terrifying dark aura.

Unlike Night Thearch's Evernight powers, the dark aura didn't block out the light. One could still see the monster's faintly discernible figure, but this feeling made one feel even more terrified.

In an ancient temple on a plateau, an old man played with a Demonfall Pestle as he looked at the cube screen beside him. When he saw the dark minotaur appear, he couldn't help but frown slightly. Using Darkness Emissary's Door of Darkness, he summoned the top Terror-grade creature, Dark Domain Devil, into the arena. He bypassed the suppression of Earth's rules and allowed the Dark Domain Devil to maintain its full strength after its descent. Those fellows from the dimension will really think of any method to prevent humans from obtaining first place.

However, will Dark Domain Devil really fulfill their wish? Jing Daoxian looked at Zhou Wen, who was on the other side of the arena. His eyes shimmered with a strange glint as he fiddled with the Demonfall Pestle and muttered to himself, "Let me see how far you have come."

"How shameless. Such a creature isn't something a fellow like Zhou Ming can summon. It must be those fellows from the dimension," Li Xuan said angrily.

Wang Lu hugged Ya'er and said, "The cube is the home ground of dimensional creatures to begin with. If you want to win in such an environment, you have to be prepared to fight in adversarial situations."

Feng Qiuyan also said, "What I'm most worried about isn't this Terror creature. I'm afraid that Coach will be like Ya and be kicked out by them using the cube's rules. He won't even have a chance to fight."

"Those shameless fellows will definitely do such a thing." Li Xuan agreed with Feng Qiuyan's point of view.

Others might not recognize Zhou Wen, but they knew him too well. They had already recognized him from his Companion Beasts, so they were somewhat worried.

"Don't worry. Zhou Wen won't be kicked out so easily," Wei Ge said with narrowed eyes.

He had come to the Wang family residence to pass on Zhou Wen's message to Li Xuan and company. When he saw Zhou Wen enter the arena, he stayed behind to watch the battle.

"Old Zhou has many strange abilities, but this is their home ground after all. The rules were set by them... It's not easy..." Li Xuan felt his balls ache just thinking about it. It was clearly a battle that decided the King of Earth, but the rules weren't set by the creatures on Earth.

"Darkness Domain Devil, kill him!" Zhou Ming pointed at Zhou Wen excitedly.

Although he hadn't summoned Darkness Domain Devil with his own strength and had the help of the dimensional creatures, this was a chance that brought him closest to being the King of Earth.

With the power of Darkness Domain Devil, as long as he defeated this strange person in front of him, he had a high chance of obtaining the Dimensional Wheel and becoming the King of Earth.

Darkness Domain Devil ignored him and stared at Zhou Wen. Its blood-red eyes in the darkness were like a pair of huge red lanterns.

Although Darkness Domain Devil had been summoned by Zhou Ming, it wasn't a summoned beast. It was a very famous creature in the Darkness Domain, one of the strongest Terror-grade creatures in the dimension.

If not for some reason, Darkness Domain Devil would have long advanced to the Calamity grade.

The dimensional bigwigs had secretly planned this operation. They had gotten Darkness Domain Devil to descend with the Door of Darkness Door because they hoped to settle this once and for all. They didn't want any additional problems.

Previously, they had paid a huge price to forcefully kick Ya out of the game. Only then did the various bigwigs agree to use the cube's nomological forces. If it happened again, ignoring the bigwigs who knew that their race had no hope of obtaining first place, just inviting those bigwigs over wouldn't be an easy task.

"Weak creatures like humans are always capable of causing a lot of trouble. In the past, those fellows were already troublesome. I never expected these fellows to be even more troublesome now." A mysterious shadow felt a headache coming on.

They were clearly creatures that were so weak that they couldn't advance to the Mythical stage, but they could take advantage of every opportunity and do something that gave them a headache.

"Any last wishes? If it's not too difficult, I can try my best to satisfy you," Darkness Domain Devil said to Zhou Wen.

It naturally didn't have good intentions. This was also one of its abilities. If its opponent's will was shaken, it would make its strength even stronger.

Although its opponent was only an Earthling, Darkness Domain Devil wasn't careless at all. It treated Zhou Wen as an opponent of the same level. It only wanted to use the safest method to kill its opponent in exchange for the benefits promised by the dimensional bigwigs.

In a battle of the same level, strength was, needless to say, important. But apart from that, the strength of a creature's will was extremely important in battle.

"I do have a wish. It's not too difficult. I hope you can satisfy me," Zhou Wen said after some serious thought.

Darkness Domain Devil was slightly delighted. It thought that Zhou Wen's will had wavered, so it asked, "Tell me, what's your wish?"

Zhou Wen sized up Darkness Domain Devil and said in all seriousness, "Can you let me see your true body?"

Darkness Domain Devil was slightly taken aback. It never expected Zhou Wen to make such a request. It immediately knew that Zhou Wen's will hadn't wavered. Perhaps he was just stalling for time.

At that moment, Darkness Domain Devil didn't waste any more time. The dark aura on its body surged like a tidal wave over the arena. Soon, it enveloped the entire cube, preventing outsiders from seeing anything.

However, the dark aura didn't injure anyone. Instead, the blood-red eyes of Darkness Domain Devil eyes intensified, but under the envelopment of the Darkness Domain, no one could see it.

"Come, let me bring your soul into the dark abyss. Enjoy the joy of depravity!" Darkness Domain Devil approached Zhou Wen with the tide of dark aura. At the same time, the sanguine light in its eyes intensified as though it had some soul-stealing power.

Zhou Wen's Wheel of Destiny kept circulating as he watched every move of Darkness Domain Devil. When he saw the pair of eyes, he immediately felt attracted to them as though his soul was about to be sucked in.

Thankfully, his willpower and mental strength were stronger than ordinary people. He temporarily stabilized his mind, but he pretended to be attracted by it. As though he was in a daze, he walked towards Darkness Domain Devil step by step.

Chapter 1096: What's Going On?

Translator: CKtalon

In the Darkness Domain, Zhou Wen walked towards Darkness Domain Devil. Soon, he arrived in front of it.

"Come, follow me into the depraved abyss of happiness..." Darkness Domain Devil lowered its head and extended its palms as though it wanted to lift Zhou Wen up. At the same time, its face approached Zhou Wen.

Just as its palms were about to touch him, Zhou Wen suddenly vanished. When he appeared again, he was already in front of Dark Domain Devil's eyes. He held an ice crystal-like dragon tooth in his hand and stabbed at its eyes.

The tip of the dragon tooth was about to touch the eyeball of Darkness Domain Devil when a palm suddenly extended out of the darkness and grabbed the dragon tooth.

"You are still too young to play dirty in front of me." Darkness Domain Devil grinned hideously. It grabbed the Dragon Tooth with one hand and grabbed Zhou Wen's body with the other. At the same time, it said, "It's no wonder you dare be so arrogant. You actually have a Terror item. This isn't something that any Terror creature can condense... Ah..."

Before Darkness Domain Devil could finish its sentence, blood bloomed in its eyes. Demonic Neonate had stabbed it in the eye with Demonic Sword.

Darkness Domain Devil's reaction was also extremely fast. It reached out to crush Zhou Wen, but when its other eye saw Demonic Neonate, its hand froze as its eyes were filled with disbelief.

Its palm unknowingly released Zhou Wen as he fell to the ground, turning into a Substitute Talisman in midair. Zhou Wen's true body appeared elsewhere.

Demonic Neonate immediately retreated after a successful strike and landed in Zhou Wen's arms.

"No... Impossible..." Darkness Domain Devil stared at Demonic Neonate as its injured eyes rapidly healed. However, it had no intention of attacking Zhou Wen. It only stared intently at Demonic Neonate with a look of horror as though it had seen a ghost.

Zhou Wen realized that something was amiss and had a bad feeling. He immediately unsummoned Demonic Neonate.

Darkness Domain Devil clearly knew Demonic Neonate, or rather, it had seen an existence similar to Demonic Neonate.

In the past, the fact that Grim Demon knew Demonic Neonate had made Zhou Wen feel that something was amiss. Grim Demon was ultimately a Guardian born on Earth.

However, Darkness Domain Devil was different. It was a creature from the dimension. It actually recognized Demonic Neonate and from its alarmed look, this was a huge problem.

If Demonic Neonate was really related to the dimension, who knew what would happen if the big shots of the dimension saw him using Demonic Neonate in the arena.

From Ya's previous encounter, it could be seen that the fellows in the dimension were different from humans. They didn't care about their reputation at all. They were very dangerous considering how unscrupulous they were to achieve their goals.

Now, Zhou Wen was somewhat glad that he had summoned Demonic Neonate in the darkness. Otherwise, Demonic Neonate would have been completely exposed.

Zhou Wen already had the intention to kill. He was just about to summon Banana Fairy and kill Darkness Domain Devil with all his might.

However, before Zhou Wen could take action, he saw Darkness Domain Devil suddenly retract its Darkness Domain. Even the Darkness aura on its body completely converged, revealing its true body.

The spectators stared at the black screen. They couldn't see anything, but clearly, the creature Zhou Ming had summoned was definitely a Terror-grade existence.

Many people were worried for Zhou Wen, hoping to know the outcome as soon as possible. However, they were also worried that they would see Zhou Wen's tragic death when the darkness vanished.

Even Zhou Ming himself couldn't see anything in the darkness.

Suddenly, the darkness in the arena vanished. Not only did the darkness disappear, but even the black gas surrounding the Darkness Domain Devil vanished.

Only then did everyone see that the true body of the Darkness Domain Devil wasn't as huge as they had imagined. It was only about ten meters tall, but it was already very majestic compared to humans.

It had a bull's head and hooves, but its body and hands looked human. Furthermore, it was wearing a black robe. It looked very strange.

Seeing that Darkness Domain Devil was unharmed, everyone was alarmed. They hurriedly searched the other corners of the arena, worried that Zhou Wen had been killed.

Seeing Zhou Wen standing there perfectly fine without any injuries, they couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief.

"What are you standing there for? Quickly finish him off!" Zhou Ming was immediately disappointed when he saw that Zhou Wen wasn't dead. He immediately urged Darkness Domain Devil to quickly kill Zhou Wen.

This was because the dimensional creatures he had come into contact with had told him that Darkness Domain Devil was invincible among Terror-grade existences. As long as he summoned it over, there was no way for him to lose.

The next second, Darkness Domain Devil finally moved, but its target wasn't Zhou Wen. It turned around and looked at Zhou Ming, who was wearing the Darkness Emissary armor.

Its eyes shimmered with a sanguine glow like the eyes of the Devil. In an instant, Zhou Ming and the Darkness Emissary armor on his body exploded. Blood spewed everywhere, instantly leaving nothing behind.

This turn of events stunned everyone. They looked at the arena in a daze, unsure what had happened.

It wasn't just humans. Many creatures in the dimension were also stunned. The eyes of the big shot who had arranged for Darkness Domain Devil to descend into the arena twitched as he had a strong ominous feeling.

Zhou Wen was slightly taken aback as well, but he quickly thought of something. Could it be that this fellow is the same as Grim Demon? Is it related to Demonic Neonate or her lineage?

Zhou Wen was momentarily hesitant. Should he continue summoning Banana Fairy to silence it? Darkness Domain Devil was very powerful, so it didn't seem easy to silence it.

Furthermore, without the cover of the Darkness Domain, if he wanted to kill it without using Demonic Neonate, he would probably have to expose most of his abilities.

After all, this was a combat arena where one could admit defeat. Zhou Wen wasn't confident that he could kill Darkness Domain Devil before it admitted defeat.

Just as Zhou Wen was hesitating and everyone was puzzled, Darkness Domain Devil suddenly took a step forward and genuflected. Just like Grim Demon from before, it placed its right hand on its chest and lowered its head.

"What's going on?"

"What happened?"

"Wasn't this thing summoned by Zhou Ming? Isn't it a Terror creature from the dimension?"

"Probably..."

Instantly, the Federation was in an uproar. It made sense if Grim Demon had something to do with Human, but Darkness Domain Devil was a dimensional creature summoned by Zhou Ming. Why did it kneel after the screen turned black and lit up?

Only Zhou Wen knew that Darkness Domain Devil was kneeling to Demonic Neonate, not him.

"Little Yanyan, pinch me. See if I'm still dreaming?" Li Xuan said to Feng Qiuyan with a strange expression.

"Ah!" Li Xuan let out a tragic cry as he held his swollen face. His fingers trembled as he pointed at Feng Qiuyan and jumped. "Why did you use so much strength?"

"How can you be sure if you aren't dreaming if I don't use more strength?" Feng Qiuyan muttered to himself, "Seeing how much pain you are in, you should be able to confirm that you aren't dreaming."

"But you don't have to use so much strength, right? Do you want to pinch me to death? If it wasn't for my extraordinary physique, my face would have been flattened by you," Li Xuan said unrelentingly.

"Others will die when facing such strength, but you won't," Feng Qiuyan said calmly.

Li Xuan opened his mouth and realized that he had no means to refute him. He swallowed his words.

However, Li Xuan was certain that this wasn't a dream. Darkness Domain Devil continued kneeling there with its head bowed at Zhou Wen.

Due to the deaths of Zhou Ming and Darkness Emissary, the Door of Darkness dissipated at the same time. Darkness Domain Devil lost the protection of this layer of connection and was immediately repelled by Earth's laws. The Darkness aura on its body was rapidly dissipating.

As Darkness Domain Devil fought the terrifying nomological force, it bowed three times respectfully in Zhou Wen's direction. Without a word, it turned around and admitted defeat before leaving the arena and returning to the dimension.

Although Darkness Domain Devil didn't say a word, anyone could tell that he had simply treated Zhou Wen as a god.

Previously, Grim Demon had only genuflected. Now, the powerful dimensional creature, Darkness Domain Devil, had bowed so respectfully. It was truly unbelievable.

"What's going on? Is Human actually a powerful creature from the dimension in disguise?"

"He can't be human, right?"

"I don't think so..."

People began to wonder if Human was human, but only humans could use Companion Beasts. This also meant that Human was human—or at least half-human.

However, how could a human have such glory? He had actually made Darkness Domain Devil bow to him. It was a terrifying existence that could instantly kill a Guardian at a glance, but in front of Zhou Wen, it was like a slave and had treated Zhou Wen like a god. It was unbelievable that he was really a human.

As a result, many Guardians who originally wanted to issue a challenge hesitated.

Darkness Domain Devil was clearly at the Terror grade and sent by the dimension. It had extremely terrifying strength. Yet, such an existence was so subservient in front of this fellow who claimed to be Human. They were really afraid.

Ignoring the human contractor, even the Guardian itself was afraid. Even though the dimensional bigwigs kept urging Guardians to enter the arena, none of them dared to do so.

Time ticked by. If no one challenged him in an hour, Human would obtain first place on the rankings.

After a few minutes of silence, someone finally issued a challenge. The challenger was Cave Era.

Cave Era was a Terror-grade Guardian with the power of time. After entering the arena, she immediately turned into her Terror form and vanished from everyone's eyes.

Others couldn't see her, but Zhou Wen could see her very clearly. Her Terror form couldn't escape his eyes, but after Cave Era entered her Terror form, her body obtained the augmentation of time power. Under the acceleration of time, her movement technique was unbelievably fast.

Zhou Wen didn't hesitate to summon Banana Fairy. The fairy-like Banana Fairy appeared in front of Zhou Wen.

Her elegant and beautiful appearance immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Banana Fairy pouted her red lips and blew out a breath. A cold wind instantly rose over the arena and swept towards the Terror-form of Cave Era.

Cave Era summoned a triangular blade transformed from a Companion Beast and charged at the cold wind with a cold beam.

The cold beam pierced through the cold wind, but it only moved half a foot forward. As for Cave Era's body, it was sent flying by the cold wind. She was kicked out of her Terror state in midair and instantly flew for an unknown distance. She vanished from the screen, her whereabouts unknown.

"Is... Is that a Companion Beast?"

"Heavens, that Companion Beast is too terrifying. She blew away the Terror-grade Cave Era with a single breath. It's no wonder Grim Demon and Darkness Domain Devil are so fearful of Human. Such a powerful Companion Beast is practically invincible."

"Isn't this too fake? The Terror-grade Cave Era was blown away just like that."

"What's the use of being strong? Looks are what matters. Just look at how beautiful that Companion Beast is and you'll know that she's definitely invincible. If she were to wheedle at me, I would definitely die of joy."

"A beautiful humanoid Companion Beast that's so terrifyingly powerful. How much did that brother suffer in his previous life to exchange for such a Companion Beast in this life?"

Everyone was alarmed by Banana Fairy's strength and beauty. They explained away the respect Grim Demon and Darkness Domain Devil showed by her existence.

It wasn't their fault for thinking that way. The battle Banana Fairy had displayed was just too shocking. A small gust of wind blew the Terror-grade powerhouse away. She looked way overpowered.

However, they didn't know that Banana Fairy only had a few moves. Apart from blowing wind, she didn't do anything else.

Zhou Wen watched as Cave Era was blown away by the Supreme Yin Wind. Her body was almost frozen into ice in midair. He felt that she was doomed.

However, in the next second, a figure flashed. Cave Era strangely returned to the arena and appeared where she had been standing as though she had never moved.

Zhou Wen sized up Cave Era in surprise and asked, "Time reversal?"

"I don't have such powerful strength to reverse time. Not to mention reversing time, I can't even stop time. Otherwise, you and Ya would have died long ago." Cave Era answered coldly, "It's just a time mark. By marking a time point, my body can return to that time point. The mark can only last a maximum of three seconds."

"You didn't use this move when you fought Ya, right?" Zhou Wen asked.

"I can only use it once. So even if I had used it, I would still have lost. There was no point in using it," said Cave Era.

"In that case, you believe that you can't beat Ya, but you can beat me?" Zhou Wen asked.

"At the very least, there's a chance," Cave Era said as she transformed into her Terror form again and charged at Zhou Wen.

Banana Fairy blew out the Supreme Yin Wind again. However, the speed of the Supreme Yin Wind couldn't catch up to Cave Era after she accelerated time. Cave Era circled around the Supreme Yin Wind and continued charging at Zhou Wen.

Banana Fairy was a wind-elemental divine pet. In terms of speed, she wasn't slower than Cave Era. With Cave Era accelerating time, Banana Fairy still caught up to her. With a grab, the banana leaf under her became a fan that appeared in her hand. She fanned it at Cave Era, and her figure vanished as she entered her Terror form. It was as though she had transformed into an invisible wind.

This was a battle of speed. Banana Fairy and Cave Era were unbelievably fast; ordinary people couldn't see their figures. All they could see was the wind constantly flowing across the arena.

After Banana Fairy was lured away, Cave Era suddenly summoned four Mythical Companion Beasts and sent them charging at Zhou Wen.

Chapter 1098: Sea of Mythical Pets

Translator: CKtalon

Ordinary people couldn't see Banana Fairy and Cave Era, but the four Mythical Companion Beasts could see them clearly.

"Ghidorah ... World Wolf... Dark Troll and Pharaoh..." Many people immediately recognized the Mythical Companion Beasts.

It wasn't that they were knowledgeable, but that the four Companion Beasts were so famous.

Ghidorah was known as the strongest Strength-type Companion Beast in the North District. The World Wolf was known as the fastest Companion Beast in the North District.

Dark Troll was a famous Mythical Companion Beast in the West District. Its body was extremely powerful, and it also had the ability to use darkness magic. It was an excellent Companion Beast that practiced both magic and martial arts. It was said that no one had been able to defeat and kill it in the Darkness Abyss. No one expected Cave Era to possess the Dark Troll Companion Beast.

There was no need to mention Pharaoh. He was a divine Companion Beast with Mythical magic powers.

These four famous Mythical Companion Beasts had appeared together with Cave Era. It made Zhou Wen break out into a cold sweat.

This was because most people believed that Banana Fairy was what Human relied on the most. Now that Banana Fairy had been lured away by Cave Era, it was still unknown if Human could deal with these four powerful Mythical Companion Beasts.

Do you want to compete with Companion Beasts? Zhou Wen saw the four Companion Beasts rush over, but he had no intention of retreating. He directly summoned most of his Companion Beasts that had appeared on the rankings.

The six Demon Blood True Dragons appeared out of nowhere and lined up in front of Zhou Wen. The last time he had gone to the underground sea, he had obtained another one. Now, he was only three short of the nine Demon Blood True Dragons.

Furthermore, the Demon Blood True Dragons were very strange. It didn't drop every time, but when something dropped, it would definitely be a Demon Blood True Dragon with a different attribute. Zhou Wen had never had a Demon Blood True Dragon with the same attribute drop.

Zhou Wen guessed that it might be because the Demon Blood True Dragon's Companion Beast had a unique characteristic. Perhaps after it dropped, no one else could get it to drop again.

Now, Zhou Wen only hoped to have the nine Companion Eggs drop before others went to the underground sea to kill the Demon Blood True Dragon. He wanted to see how powerful the nine Demon Blood True Dragons were.

"Wow... Six Demon Blood True Dragons... Three Golden Battle God Halberds... Splitting Ancient Tadpoles... Devil Clown... Night Immaculate Sword... And the fire-elemental knight who fought previously... The Invisibility Cloak should be here too... These Companion Beasts really belong to the same person..."

"What kind of luck is this... Six Demon Blood True Dragons... Three Golden Battle God Halberds... Holy sh*t..."

"Together with that beautiful fairy-like Companion Beast, how many Mythical Companion Beasts does this fellow have?"

"Is this fellow having an affair with Lady Luck? Why is he getting all the good pets?"

Instantly, everyone was alarmed. The four Mythical Companion Beast battle lineup from Cave Era were already very shocking, but the Companion Beasts Zhou Wen summoned couldn't be called a battle lineup. They were like a sea of pets.

The originally aggressive Ghidorah was instantly surrounded by six Demon Blood True Dragons. The Pharaoh was being pursued by the three Golden Battle God Halberds. The Night Immaculate Sword transformed into a shocking sword beam that circled the World Wolf. Sword marks appeared on the World Wolf's body as blood dyed its fur red.

Others believed that it was caused by Night Immaculate's sword aura, but in fact, it was the invisible combination of the Light Concealment Sword and Night Immaculate Sword. It was just that others couldn't see Light Concealment Sword.

The Fiend-Armored Tiger Soul General, Devil Clown, and Ancient Splitting Tadpole fought the Dark Troll. In just a moment, the Dark Troll's skin and flesh were lacerated.

After being hit by the Devil Clown's magic ball, he was immediately at a loss for what to do. He could only be thrashed by the Fiend-Armored Tiger Soul General and couldn't dodge the explosion of the Ancient Splitting Tadpole.

As long as the Ancient Splitting Tadpole didn't explode nine times in a row, it could slowly recover. There was no need to worry.

The onlookers enjoyed the spectacle. They couldn't see the earlier Terror-grade battles at all. They could only imagine and make all sorts of guesses, making them feel depressed.

Now, in such a battle of Mythical Companion Beasts, although it might not be as strong as a Terror-grade, it was very satisfying watching it.

The only bad thing was that the Companion Beasts in the cave were being ganged up on. They could only suffer a beating. Occasionally, they could counterattack, but they couldn't cause too much of a stir.

"If I had so many powerful Companion Beasts, I would dare vie with those Guardians."

"Pui! I just need that beautiful fairy Companion Beast. That's equivalent to having the entire world. What's there to fight for!"

...

Luoyang's An family.

"Overseer, Young Master Wen's Companion Beast army is really terrifying. With so many Mythical Companion Beasts, I'm afraid he has the ability to sweep through the Federation," An Sheng said as he watched the live broadcast.

"Companion Beasts are ultimately external forces," An Tianzuo said.

"Companion Beasts are external forces. Guardians are external forces. Guns and cannons are also external forces. Humans are experts who are good at using external forces. Young Master Wen is already at the epitome when it comes to Companion Beasts. I'm afraid no one on Earth can compare with him," An Sheng said.

An Tianzuo frowned and said, "If you have the time to think of so many words of praise, why don't you think about how to resolve the problem of the accelerator?"

"Yes, Overseer. I'll think about it now." An Sheng realized that he had been a little too smug and things were going south. After giving a military salute, he turned around and wanted to escape.

"Come back," An Tianzuo said coldly.

"Overseer, I'm aware of my mistakes." An Sheng turned his head with a bitter expression.

An Tianzuo snorted coldly. "It's fine if you blow his trumpet here. If that punk also thinks that he's invincible with those Companion Beasts, he probably won't even know how he died. However, it's good that he's dead. His death can bring me some peace."

"Overseer, what do you mean? What means does the dimension have to restrain Young Master Wen's Companion Beasts?" An Sheng asked carefully.

"Why would there be a need for the dimension to do something? According to what I know, there's a Guardian who has a skill similar to a seal. However, it's not a sealing of a person's body, but a sealing of Companion Beasts. Under his influence, no one can summon a Companion Beast. If that punk is as arrogant as you, he will definitely die." An Tianzuo drank a cup of water and added, "It's good if such a fellow dies. That reduces the havoc he will create everywhere. The Federation is already chaotic enough. It's good that there's one less scourge."

"Overseer, when this battle ends, I'll think of a way to inform Young Master Wen." An Sheng said.

"It's your own business if you want to inform him. Why are you asking me? I can't wait for that troublemaker to be taught a lesson," An Tianzuo said expressionlessly.

"Yes, I'm the one who wants to tell Young Master Wen. It has nothing to do with you, Overseer." As An Sheng spoke, his eyes darted to An Tianzuo. "But I don't know where Young Master Wen is now. How can I contact him?"

"Don't look at me. Don't have any ideas about my voice transmission bell. Don't think that I'll lend it to you," An Tianzuo said as he turned around and drank his tea.
