Swoosh!Then, he leaped up. His body swelled into his true Gluttony form in the air and was enveloped in a layer of black flames, making him look mighty powerful. Briar and the others also took action.The remaining experts formed arrays and used treasures to fend off the demonic shadows.“It’s time!”Taking advantage of the distracted demonic energy shadows, Andrius silently arrived at the palace stele. Then, he sent a wisp of his spiritual consciousness inside.As he suspected, the stele was the control core of the Immortal Palace and needed to be refined. Therefore, he did not hesitate to act immediately.Whoosh… The palace stele was made of a strange material and required spiritual consciousness to be continuously infused. Only once it was fully infused would it be completely refined.Of course, the stronger the spiritual consciousness, the faster the refining process. If the spiritual consciousness was weak, it would slow the process or even get expelled.In just a mom

Instead of retreating, Andrius advanced boldly, throwing a punch that made a resounding noise. “How arrogant of you!”“You’re bold!”“You’re courting death!”The three were furious, and their true vitality boiled. It did not take long before both sides clashed violently, but the outcome was astonishing.The three leaders were sent flying, leaving long trails of blood that added a bloody color to the Immortal Palace. On the other hand, Andrius stood firmly, looking relaxed.He shouted coldly, “I have the palace stele in my possession, and you’re still trying to hurt me? How ridiculous and foolish!”The three leaders widened their eyes when that realization dawned on them. Andrius possessed the palace stele, so fighting him was like fighting the entire Immortal Palace, and they naturally could not win. However, at that point, as they could no longer back down without losing their dignity, they refused to concede. Thus, a confrontation ensued.“What?”Andrius snorted with a

“Y-You…”Andrius could not believe his eyes and stammered, “I-Is that you, Luna?”“Hubby!”The figure turned around, and it was indeed Luna.“Luna!”Overjoyed, Andrius instinctively asked, “W-What are you doing here?”“I…”Luna’s expression immediately changed. “Old Hagstorm captured me and imprisoned my soul. Only by killing him can I return.”What?Andrius was shocked to hear that Old Hagstorm had taken Luna away and imprisoned her soul, but how could that be? Had anyone else told him that news, he would not believe them. However, the person standing before him was Luna, his beloved wife!For a moment, Andrius was at a loss for words.“Nonsense!”Just then, an equally familiar and shocking voice came from behind, and Andrius turned around, only to see Old Hagstorm.He pointed at Luna and shouted, “You witch! Andrius wouldn’t have had to come to this point if not for you! You bring calamity to the people and the country. All you cause is trouble! Andrius, kill her and e

The mention of the real treasure repository excited the experts.They had worked so long and hard—with many others sacrificing their lives—all for the ultimate treasure. Now, it was finally time to unveil it.A spot of light suddenly appeared mid-air and grew so bright that the experts had to squint. Eventually, the dazzling light grew brighter, resembling a golden sun suspended in mid-air.Then, the sun began to rotate faster, forming a huge vortex that shaded the sky, and that was not all. As the vortex continued to rotate and expand, it also exuded a powerful aura that shocked everyone. After a while, everything quieted down. Now that the vortex had slowed down, everyone could see clearly that it was a teleportation array, and the destination should be the final treasure repository.The experts immediately rushed in, and Gluttony and Andrius’ group were no exception. However, as soon as they entered, they were stunned. The place was completely different from the previous spa

As if he had noticed Andrius’ confusion, Gluttony explained, “Of course, it’s not as simple as you think. The barriers between the Upper and Lower Realms are difficult to break through. Even extraordinary experts have to pay a heavy price to open the path for a short time.“Even if some forces or groups are capable of the methods I mentioned earlier, they have to pay a considerable price. So, they will only open up shortcuts for the most outstanding geniuses of their forces.”At that, Andrius’ expression improved. If ordinary cultivators toiled for hundreds of years to ascend while others succeeded effortlessly, it would naturally stir envy.Andrius then went over the information again. In general, as an independent cultivator without a sect, he could only ascend to the Upper Realm through the Creation Mountain.As of now, his strength was already at the late Darkness stage, which was only one step away from the Great Progression stage. If he continued to refine the true vitality l
