Addison turned toward Daniel and barked out a harsh question.
"Who are you? Why are you summoning a supre-grade powerhouse here?"
Daniel let out a cold snort and could not even be bothered to answer him.
When had Addison ever suffered such contempt?
His expression instantly turned incomparably ugly.
Yet before he could erupt, an aged and imposing figure slowly stepped out of the void and stood in front of Daniel.
It was an elderly man with snow-white hair, dressed in ancient, simple armor and holding an old wooden staff.
A faint glow shrouded his entire body, obscuring all his features. Only the calmness radiating from him remained visible—a tranquil composure that seed to have seen through all worldly matters.
"Young man,"
The old man turned back to look at Daniel, his voice low and gentle.
"I shall aid you for only twenty minutes. After twenty minutes, regardless of victory or defeat, I will leave."
Daniel gave a slight nod. "That will be enough. Thank you, sir."
The old man turned around, faced Addison, and slowly raised the ancient wooden staff in his hand.
Addison’s face instantly turned ashen.
"You are the human sage of World Zone No. 616?"
Grinding his teeth, he shouted, "How dare you interfere in mortal affairs without permission?!"
The old man replied indifferently, "I was summoned here. Nothing more."
Before his words had even fully fallen, the staff in his hand erupted with dazzling blue light, dyeing the entire sky blue.
The mont he saw this, fine beads of cold sweat suddenly seeped out across Addison’s forehead.
He felt a shudder rising from the depths of his soul.
Whoosh—!
Addison shot into the air. A suffocating pressure exploded from his body—the sign of a supre-grade powerhouse pushing his Strength with everything he had.
He tightened his grip on the long blade in his hand. Dark-red light flowed across its edge like congealed blood.
He had decided to strike first!
But at that very mont, a sphere of lightning suddenly appeared.
That lightning sphere looked almost exactly like the ordinary Lightning Orb spell found in mid-grade magic.
It was only the size of a fist. Blue-white arcs of electricity danced across its surface, giving off soft crackling sounds.
There was no earth-shaking spectacle, no overwhelming phenonon blanketing the sky. It simply hovered there quietly in the air, as though it could be shattered with a casual touch.
"What kind of Strength is that?!"
Addison suddenly let out a horrified roar.
Clearly, he had already sensed sothing from that seemingly ordinary lightning sphere—sothing far beyond his understanding.
It was the crushing force of a higher dinsion.
Absolute. Irrefutable. Unstoppable.
He gripped his blade with both hands, pouring the entirety of his Strength into it, and slashed viciously at the lightning sphere.
A blazing-red elental sword aura tore across the sky, carrying enough might to split mountains in half, and struck the sphere head-on.
And yet—
The lightning sphere did not move in the slightest!
Not only did that overwhelming fla sword aura fail to disperse it, it was instead swallowed whole, vanishing into the sphere like a stone sinking into the sea.
Now, an extra layer of dancing fire had appeared on the surface of the blue-white lightning sphere.
Half lightning. Half fla.
Two completely opposing powers coexisted within that small sphere in perfect harmony.
Whoosh—!
A shrill tearing sound suddenly rang out.
The lightning sphere accelerated in an instant, like a falling teor, and shot straight toward Addison.
Addison only had ti to swing a second slash.
The instant his blade struck the sphere—
BOOM!!!
A world-shaking explosion erupted.
The lightning sphere detonated, and the lightning and flas within it instantly engulfed Addison’s entire body.
That ball of elental power resembled a miniature purgatory, with lightning and blazing fire churning wildly inside it, shredding everything caught within.
Very soon, Addison’s miserable screams rang out from within the sphere.
"No! Impossible! This kind of Strength—"
"Who exactly are you?! This is absolutely not a power an ordinary person could wield!"
"Could it be... you are the legendary god-grade?! No... that kind of existence cannot descend into this world!"
Addison’s voice grew weaker and weaker, fainter and fainter, as though he were falling into a bottomless abyss.
At last, all he left behind was one powerless murmur.
"Damn it... why would one appear at a ti like this..."
Whoosh—!
The elental power wrapped around him abruptly dispersed.
The spot where he had stood was spotless.
No corpse. No remains. Not even a drop of blood.
Addison had completely disappeared from the world, as though he had never existed at all.
...
Daniel stared blankly at the scene, montarily dazed.
The supre-grade guardian of World Zone No. 1213... had just died like that?
He had not even managed to touch the shadow of his opponent before being annihilated by a single skill?
Daniel frowned, countless questions rising in his heart.
Hadn’t he also summoned a supre-grade powerhouse?
Could the gap in strength between supre-grade beings really be this vast?
And besides, Addison’s total erasure was sowhat regrettable.
After all, in the current version, it was impossible for a supre-grade powerhouse to appear naturally. In other words, reviving a supre-grade being was practically impossible.
Daniel had originally hoped to leave behind so remains so that once a future version was released and the revival conditions beca available, he could resurrect him then.
But now, it seed even that opportunity was gone.
Just then, a clear and resonant voice rang out.
"A re supre-grade..."
Daniel’s eyes lit up abruptly. Only then did he realize that the old man, who had clearly been standing right in front of him just monts ago, had disappeared without a trace.
When he tried to lock onto the direction the voice had co from, he discovered that it seed to be coming from everywhere at once—ethereal and impossible to pinpoint.
This was utterly absurd!
In all his mories from his previous lives, there had absolutely never been a supre-grade existence possessing this level of Strength.
Just what realm had that old man reached?
Daniel took a deep breath and asked with a hint of curiosity,
"Sir... what realm are you actually in?"
He had no idea whether this human sage had already left. He only asked on the off chance.
To his surprise, that clear voice rang out again.
"Mmm... in the spaceti you inhabit, I am naturally supre-grade."
"But I have already mastered eternal spaceti magic. Within the River of Ti, every version of across every stretch of ti possesses boundless power."
The voice paused for a mont, carrying a faintly lazy smile.
"If you wish to see , then go study that [Chronoverse Prologue Codex]. Perhaps... we will et again very soon."
The voice quickly faded, and silence returned to heaven and earth.
Daniel stood there without speaking for a long ti.
He only half understood what the human sage had ant.
But at the very least, he understood one thing—
The hundred million wish points he had spent had summoned an utterly terrifying existence.
An existence capable of instantly killing a supre-grade powerhouse in a single move.
An existence that could roam through the River of Ti.
An existence that could amplify itself across every era of its own existence.
Such an ability...
was simply too heaven-defying.
