"There they are."
"Tsk, look at his face. That bastard…"
"I can't believe that witch got such powerful subordinates."
"The question is, will she be able to keep them?"
People already present in the Sky Palace's entrance hall muttered and murmured as they saw Erix, Rin, and the gang entering, headed by the infamous Tenebria Voidmoon, the Reverend of Shadow Bamboo Sanctuary.
As Tenebria's group and Ayaka's group continued towards a big door leading into the main hall to take the reward, the other groups of big forces couldn't help but feel frustrated and angry as they followed them.
Although only those two groups remained, the other group would also be ranked and get rewards based on their ranking before they were eliminated.
This special rewarding ceremony was only for the top 10 Throne Halls and their mbers, so the remaining groups were the big forces of this Adriax super world.
Lady Wisteria, the overseer of this Adriax Super World, soon began handing out rewards, starting from the 10th-ranked group.
The 10th ranked group got 1 x Rule Thread and 5x Rule Slates.
'What's Rule Thread?' Erix curiously asked Tenebria.
Tenebria replied in the soul network connecting everyone in the group as they were also curious about it.
'I told you that Rule Slates can be used to create Rule Fragnts so that you can eventually create Ruler Field when you beco Reverend-order. As an Empyrean-order, you can only tap into Rule Fragnts' powers in a crude manner.'
'However, a Rule Thread is sothing that can temporarily combine your Rule Fragnts and create your Ruler Field. In short, as an Empyrean-order, you can temporarily get the sa level of power as a Reverend-order.'
Everyone's eyes glinted upon hearing that.
'That's quite powerful, eh? So this Rule Thread is like one-ti use or?'
'Nope,' Tenebria answered. 'A Rule Thread is not one-ti use, but multi-ti use until it is broken. A Rule Thread is also bound to one person until it's destroyed after multiple uses. The number of tis you can use it depends on your usage mastery, but even if you use a Rule Thread perfectly with your Rule Fragnts, its maximum usage is still five.'
'Moreover, once an Empyrean-order binds to a Rule Thread, they can't use another Rule Thread, so this is kinda one-ti use in that sense.'
'But this item is very important if we want to ascend without any troubles since it would boost your power significantly.'
While Tenebria explained about the Rule Thread, the other groups got rewards.
The 9th ranked group got 2 x Rule Threads and 5 x Rule Slates.
The 8th ranked group got 3 x Rule Threads and 5 x Rule Slates.
…
The 5th ranked group got 6 x Rule Threads and 10 x Rule Slates.
…
The 2nd ranked group got 9 x Rule Threads and 10 x Rule Slates.
The 1st ranked group got 10 x Rule Threads and 10 x Rule Slates.
Erix, Rin, Lilith, Lily, Isabella, Saira, Kenshin, Nira, and Korin went to get the treasure chest containing those rewards like others.
Additionally, as the 1st ranked Throne Hall, they got a precious tal called Viskas—it was the most precious tal that could exist in this 1st dinsion realm.
Erix was a master of tal, and he had created unique tals as well, but he understood why this tal was precious.
It was actually similar to his unique attribute concept—Devorex tal. He could design and create unique tals with attributes and powers for synergizing using this Concept, and this Viskas tal could do a similar thing, but in a natural way.
Comprehensive Aura, achieved by entering Harmony State as ntioned by Tenebria. As long as this tal remained in one's Comprehensive Aura, sticking to one's body for 1 hour, this Viskas tal could absorb a person's specialty and give it suitable attributes.
The only reason this tal was superior to any of Erix's tal was its durability and toughness, as it was the highest tier of tal that could possibly exist in 1st Dinsion Realm.
It was just like how higher-order beings and their powers were banned from entering lower-dinsion realms under regular circumstances.
'Well, I got this tal, so I am going to absorb and replicate it. This way, all of us will have brand new banner weapons and items from .' Experience tales at empire
'As expected of my darling,' Rin grinned. 'My Raibor Power Sli was also interested in eating this tal, but I'll let it eat the one you make.'
Tenebria wryly chuckled internally, 'Your attribute-concept of tal is also crazily powerful, Erix. If you replicate this Viskas tal and everyone gains weapons and armor of this, it might attract greedy eyes. So much so that a powerful force could purely use you for this power to make tals and equipnt for others.'
'Humph, I want to see who dares to do that,' Lilith snorted.
'Well, it's better to make sure that you keep your new weapons and pieces of equipnt hidden if you make them.'
The group returned to the floor after receiving the rewards and talking.
"Everyone," Lady Wisteria smiled as she raised her glass while smiling. "You have perford wonderfully in the major ga—War of Thrones, especially the ones from Shadow Bamboo Sanctuary."
"Congratulations," Lady Wisteria looked at their groups as she said this, and then swept her glance across the hall. "Nine months remain until the fateful day arrives."
*Tension…*
The atmosphere in the hall instantly beca stiff yet fiery.
"Many of you already have connections to the Realm Houses and forces from the 2nd dinsion realm and higher and are eager to acquire an Ascension spot in the Axis realm, so you can continue to beco stronger and broaden your horizons."
"Just our Adriax super world has 219 Reverend-order, with 73 of you already at the peak of Reverend-order. Not to ntion, there are three more super worlds like us with a similar number of Reveren-orders who are eager for this important event that only cos once every 100 years."
Every Reverend-order powerhouse present in this hall tightened their grip on their wine glasses and their eyes also changed, including Tenebria.
Especially those at the peak of Reverend-order. Most of them had already failed in the last opening of the Axis realm, so they didn't want to wait for 100 years more.
Lady Wisteria's eyes sharpened, "There are many of you, but only 100 of you will ascend to the 2nd dinsion realm."
"Only one hundred," she repeated before her expression shifted into a smiling, "So, good luck and all the best in your endeavors."
"Now then, let announce to you the most important news for which you all are eager," Lady Wisteria conjured a spoon and tapped it on her glass, causing a ringing sound through the hall before everyone saw a huge hologram behind her.
[The Grand Dinsional Auction]
Below these words was a huge and exquisite do-like building with four pillars on its four sides, suspending in space.
"The Grand Dinsional Auction will begin after 4 months. For those who are not familiar with it, this Auction only opens once every 100 years when it's ti for the Axis realm to open."
"The currency used to buy the items in this auction is quite special," Lady Wisteria smiled. "Due to its uniqueness, I shall inform you about the currency and how to acquire it beforehand, but you can only earn this currency inside the auction once it starts."
"The auction entry is granted to a Reverend-order powerhouse and five additional Empyrean-order powerhouses accompanying this Reverend-order."
'The currency's na is Player Coin. Once an item is revealed for bidding, the Reverend-order powerhouses who want the item must put forward one of their Empyrean-order on the central stage."
The hologram showed a big stage inside the building.
"There will be a random ga played among these Empyrean-order. Everyone who plays will gain Player Coins depending on their performance in the random ga. The first ranked will acquire enough Player Coins to buy out the item, but you can also choose not to buy it and save the coins instead."
"The number of Player Coins granted during each round depends on the Item being auctioned."
"However, you cannot send the sa Empyrean-order powerhouse on the stage again," Lady Wisteria smiled. "Only five rounds for each group, but items will be abundant. Should you fail to properly strategize, you might not even get a single item."
Many in the hall were shocked. This was an extrely witty and ruthless auction!
'Troubleso,' Tenebria sighed as she felt piercing auras aid at her.
All top forces who were aiming to recruit Erix and others into their group were now all the more determined and resolved…so even to the extre.
Having Erix, Rin, and others basically boosted one's winning chance in the auction by 99%. Their combat power was overwhelming and once they finished their Rule Power build as Empyrean-order, they would practically be unbeatable.
"Everyone, the announcent is over, so please enjoy the feast and gathering in the Sky Garden."
