Hum!

A dazzling white light burst forth and made a whooshing noise before a dark silhouette appeared.

When he realized that something was amiss, a jumping wormhole opened behind the black figure instantly. He retreated swiftly while attempting to escape.

“Roar!!!”

Suddenly, a transparent and shapeless sound wave leaped across the distance in the middle. It sputtered out of Garen’s mouth and struck the wormhole.

A puffing noise could be heard as the wormhole turned into fragile soap bubbles that evaporated quickly. The black figure who had just entered it screamed painfully. His body was instantly cut into two halves by the empty space before it self-detonated.

“There are more here!”

Ice-Crack snorted coldly and extended his hand simultaneously. He grabbed another black figure from a different area and pressed down against his head directly. He was getting ready to subdue his opponent but did not expect this person to detonate himself abruptly. He was able to quickly move backward in time but his clothes were now slightly messy. Ice-Crack’s expression remained somewhat indifferent.

Within a few short moments, the dark colossal dragon was almost digested completely. Garen saw that the evolution and rate of progress of the Hellfrost Peacock Queen inside his body had gradually increased by one point and had reached six percent.

The surrounding powerhouses of Silver Bell Stream were either dead or captured.

“Ice-Crack, stay back and kill all the high-grade Silver Bell members on this planet. The others will continue to set out. We’ll converge on Planet Naga,” Garen released an order before countless strands flew back into his palm cleanly and quickly. Only then did he turn around to leave.

“Yes!” Ice-Crack’s entire body was brimming with tremendous and uncontrollable energy and gravitational forces. These were the symptoms of someone who had recently entered Level Eight but could not perfectly restrain themselves yet.

Garen and Ice-Grand returned to the battle fortress. After a period of jumps, they disappeared in outer space quickly.

******************

“Has Jeros gone mad?!”

A voice sounded within a certain completely dark space in the universe suddenly. It was unclear whether the voice belonged to a man or a woman.

“He actually led Scarlet Snow Sect to invade the other sects everywhere. How bold... He destroyed thirteen individual sects within two days while forming coalition agreements with eight other sects. What is he trying to do?” The sound of another woman’s voice could be heard.

“If his older sister wasn’t here... Hmph!”

“The title of Wraith Monarch has already been conferred upon his older sister. She’s currently vying with her father, the previous Wraith Monarch, for supremacy. After that, she will probably challenge His Majesty. After all, the Wraith Royalty is a declining aristocracy. They were indeed glorious previously but have already become out-of-date now.”

“The times are advancing. Therefore, those who don’t follow the changes will be eliminated.”

Numerous clamorous voices echoed continuously as if many people were trying to speak simultaneously.

Boom!!!

In the faraway starry sky, a star exploded suddenly and burst into dazzling and bewitching halos that illuminated the entire space.

Everything here was instantly illuminated and completely exposed down to the smallest detail.

There was only a single gigantic human figure here. Its upper body was human while its lower body had taken root within an enormous monster on the pitch-black planet.

The strangest part was that it did not only have one head. Instead, it had more than ten human heads that were all attached to one body.

There were both male and female heads that were densely packed together. All of them had long snake-like necks that were connected to the torso. These human heads were debating, discussing and speaking to each other as if they were not a single person but a large group of individuals instead.

The monster looked like a large black tree. The tree roots were indistinct root hairs while the tree trunk was the monster’s torso and body. Meanwhile, the crown of the tree was its countless human heads.

“Do you want to get rid of Jeros?” Within the large crowd, the head of an old man opened his mouth slowly. The surrounding human heads became silent instantly when he opened his mouth.

“What about Nila? Let him decide.”

“I’m afraid that he won’t agree. Despite who he is, he probably isn’t the opponent of the new Wraith Monarch. Other than His Majesty and the Black King, the two major nebulae of our human race and the Finites can only depend on the Golden Thread Flower King who is the only one who can suppress the Wraith Monarch. The others are not her opponents.”

Another head of an old woman opened its mouth as well.

“Within the twenty-five Regent Levels, unless we can find three of them who are closely ranked to the first few Regent Levels and ally ourselves with them simultaneously, we won’t be able to touch Jeros temporarily,” nodded the old man.

“But if we just look on while he plunders recklessly, what’s going to happen in the event that the plan is sabotaged?”

“Isn’t the plan already considered as an overt plot?” said the old man indifferently. “Inform the other nine planets that they should get to work now.”

********************

Boom!!!

There was an intense vibration before a dazzling yet terrifying golden light exploded in front of Garen in outer space.

In the space between Garen and the planet on the opposite side of him, both Ice-Crack and Ice-Grand were currently working together to besiege a mummy-like Guardian whose entire body was ragged.

It was already the third day of their expedition. They had jumped across numerous medium-sized sects. Garen had overlooked the small-sized sects directly because they were not major threats. He had leeched on to more than ten Level Eight Guardians and the one that he was currently suppressing was the nineteenth one.

The golden light dimmed quickly. The white bandages that covered the mummified Guardian’s body completely were gradually frozen solid by the hard ice before most of them broke and cracked. He continued supporting himself while the remaining powerhouses of this sect were already completely seized by the powerhouses of Scarlet Snow and the remaining powerhouses of other sects that were being subdued midway. The slightest chance for resistance was non-existent.

Garen did not even have to undertake the task personally. He merely stood in outer space and looked on quietly while his subordinates besieged his opponents without a trace of foul temperament.

Shh!

He jerked his hand before a sliver of a hidden Distorted Seed poked out. When one of its opponent’s flaws was exposed in the crossfire, the seed immediately took the opportunity to penetrate the body of the dark mummified Guardian.

The entire mummy halted firmly before its body stiffened at once.

Ice-Crack and Ice-Grand who were in the surroundings stopped moving simultaneously as if they had a mutual agreement with each other as well. They watched the following changes that occurred within the mummy with ease. They knew that a powerful new member was about to join them.

This was another frightening aspect of the Hellfrost Peacock. Its powers would increase like a rolling snowball and become stronger. Even in Ancient Endor, no one dared to allow the Hellfrost Peacock to unleash its developed strength.

Although this creature’s own powers were not the strongest, they were able to amplify the strength of others creatures who initially possessed tyrannical powers already. Moreover, they were able to make these creatures surpass themselves!

Golden light that was even more dazzling than before burst forth from the body of the mummy instantly. Numerous golden characters formed ribbon-like things that appeared beside his body and revolved around there. They turned slowly in an extraordinary mysterious manner.

The mummy raised its head before terrifying its Level Nine aura burst forth.

From the lowest stage of Level Nine, the aura expanded to the middle stage of Level Nine quickly before entering Level Nine Peak immediately.

“Oh? Another Guardian that uses his own qualities as his foundation?” Garen was somewhat surprised because the average Guardian’s increment would stop at the lower stages of Level Nine. However, this fellow was apparently different because he was able to rush to the peak of the highest stage directly.

“Strength... What powerful strength!!!” The mummy howled impatiently as if he was being absorbed into a realm that upgraded him unceasingly.

Shh!!!

Another ray of golden light exploded inside his body suddenly.

Even Garen was faintly stunned this time.

“This is...”

Ice-Grand and Ice-Crack were struck by the golden light directly. Large patches of bloody blisters that resembled burn wounds formed throughout their entire bodies before they fled frantically while screaming wildly.

The golden light condensed rapidly and synthesized into a thick golden whip that twisted and swept through outer space violently before moving towards Garen.

“Die!! Hahahaha!!”

The mummy laughed madly while controlling the golden whip and cracking it at Garen.

Garen remained completely still and allowed the golden whip to move closer.

Strangely enough, when the golden whip was about to approach Garen, it shrunk and narrowed itself quickly. From its initial thickness of a few thousand meters, it immediately shrunk to a few hundred meters before merely becoming more than ten meters and finally, only a few meters.

When it finally reached the front of Garen’s face, a sliver that was only as thick as a strand of hair remained.

Poof.

Garen exhaled and blew the strand of golden hair before separating it.

“How could you use the strength that I had bestowed upon you against me instead?” He looked at the other party calmly.

The mummy held its own head suddenly. It seemed as though an enormous switch that was hidden inside his body to control his strength was instantly activated and exploded by Garen’s Distorted Seed. Palpitations that were usually used to pulsate human hearts suddenly spread throughout his body again.

The Distorted Seed was affecting his consciousness. It made him clearly aware that the Distorted Seed was the source of everything. Moreover, the source of the Distorted Seed was Garen.

He only gradually calmed down after a long time before the strength throughout his entire body weakened.

The golden light in outer space slowly disappeared and weakened as well before everything returned to tranquility.

The mummy finally calmed down completely. He raised his head and looked at Garen silently.

“I had initially assumed that old age was right around the corner. I never expected that...” There was an indefinite expression on his face when he looked at the skin and muscles beneath his bandages that had already regained their youthfulness. His gaze was complicated.

“I’m willing to return as your subordinate,” the madly brutal nature throughout his entire body was now subjugated. He finally understood that the source of his own strength and life came from the man in front of him. Hence, he chose to submit himself to him for the sake of his life and this intoxicating strength instead.

“Then, the next one.”

Garen turned around and flew towards the battle fortress.

“You should come with me.”

An ominous glint glimmered in the depths of the mummy’s eyes. However, it was finally suppressed by the Distorted Seed. Once the connection to the source was made clear, he could no longer attempt to attack Garen in the end. Instead, he hurried behind him frantically.

As for the sect behind him, he was never concerned about that thing. He had only chosen to train there secretly to quietly improve his own powers and benefit himself. Thus, he became the founder of a sect there. However, now that he had another path, there were naturally no more reasons for him to remain here anymore.

While flying towards the battle fortress and following Garen, shock stirred in the mind of the mummy suddenly.

Other than a few normal people on the battle fortress, the rest were Non-falling Levels and the two Level Eight powerhouses that besieged him recently.

However, the thing that truly shocked him the most was another group of people who were the only ones standing on another side.

There were four terrifying human figures who were completely clad in white robes that were emitting faint chills. Each one of their bodies were enveloped in distortions, making it completely impossible for people to see their bodies and appearances clearly.

However, the similarity that all of them shared was their great power!!

Level Nine! All of them were on Level Nine!!

Apparently, none of these four people were lower than this grade. The two strongest ones were even Level Nine Peaks like himself. Perpetual Motioners required Ultimate Boards but this was not something that could be simply achieved by strength upgrades. Therefore, Level Nine Peak was the pinnacle of the Ultimate Board.

“There will be five people including you,” said Garen indifferently. “Be mindful of hiding yourself and don’t expose your identity. All of you must stay here and cannot leave. After a short while, a time will come when I will need you all to strike with all of your strength.”

The mummy nodded and walked beside the four people. It used its entire body to distort space in a similar manner to cover the gazes and fields of vision of the others.

Garen nodded his head in a satisfied manner.

Most of the Star Regions near Scarlet Snow Sect were cleared away while the many of the sect domains that were slightly further away were gotten rid of as well. The strongest Guardians of at least half of the thirty-six medium-sized sects were either openly or secretly leeched on by him. After that, the Alliance would have definitely dispatched their powerhouses to obstruct him already. However, even if the Alliance had sent people, what grades would they be? Would they be Level Nine or Level Ten?

Although Level Ten was the pinnacle of the Energy Machinists, there were only three Level Tens among them. This meant that the Alliance could not engage them easily. Therefore, they could only dispatch Level Nines. However, they would have to be the most powerful ones in Level Nine.
