RUMBLE...
The Jade Grey Mist washed down.
Even with the barrier of the Steam Spirit Realm blocking it, a portion of the power still seeped through.
The Jade Grey Mist that entered surged and howled like a ferocious storm.
These eerie sonic waves grew increasingly tumultuous throughout the entire Spirit Realm.
The Steam Towers resisting these terrifying storms stood like lighthouses amidst colossal waves.
While standing guard, Zorn felt sothing climbing on and biting his ears, as if small Echo Demons were gnawing at them.
Zorn reached out and grabbed.
He actually caught an Echo Demon the size of an ear in his hand.
Zorn was protected by his Gang Qi, so the little thing couldn’t bite through his defenses at all.
"HISS... HISS..."
The small Echo Demon angrily tried to bite Zorn’s fingers.
A tiny Golden Arm suddenly erged from the palm of his hand.
With a SMACK!, it slapped the Echo Demon to pieces.
"HISS..."
Imdiately after, two more Echo Demons latched onto Zorn’s ears, one on each.
The Golden Arm appeared on its own.
With a casual squeeze, the two Echo Demons were crushed to death.
’This power has a Demon Elent.’
’Are those guys from the Jade Realm’s ’Demon Branch’ attacking us from deep within the Jade Grey Mist?’
Zorn wondered.
For the Jade Realm, which stood tall in the vast Star Realm and could anchor nurous worlds, the worlds occupied by many powerful races were all within its sphere of influence.
Whenever a world-level epic saga began to unfold in a world, the Jade Realm would gain Insight into it.
Then, a "Star Realm Bridge" spanning distant dinsions could be established.
The power of the Jade Realm would then radiate into it.
This allowed them to acquire a sufficient number of Sacred Marks from that world.
The Demon World.
The Elf World.
The Human Race World.
The Dwarf World.
The Underground Demon King World.
The Purgatory World.
The Dragon Race World.
In the depths of the vast Star Realm, there were all sorts of worlds.
Many of the powerful ones had ties to the Jade Realm.
The Hidden Wilderness Sect and the Twilight and Ancient Temple were clandestine factions no weaker than the Jade Realm, standing tall over the majestic Star Realm.
In a sense,
the Holy Relic World was just one among many worlds.
But the Holy Relic World was also a very special existence.
The few World-level BOSSes born from it were all exceptionally unique.
Behind every World-level BOSS lay a great secret.
And at this stage,
these clandestine factions had intervened to so extent, but they had not yet delved too deeply into the extraordinary nature of the Holy Relic World.
Only when the third World-level BOSS brought terrible nightmares and suffering to everyone on the entire continent would those powerful, clandestine factions notice what made this world different.
As for the current stage, that was still a long way off!
Although the hurricane-like Jade Grey Mist had brought with it bizarre little demons, these tactics were clearly not enough to cause much harm to the nurous Tower Guardians.
Before long, the Jade Grey Mist rapidly condensed, forming a massive vortex.
HISS...
ROAR...
Hundreds of grey mist demons, large and small, fell from it and began to attack the many Steam Towers.
The tower defense had begun.
Everyone took action, striking down these grey mist demons.
Zorn was also on his tower, hurling Destruction Magic Balls to bombard the grey mist demons attacking the tower.
Soon, these not-so-powerful grey mist demons were wiped out by the crowd.
At the sa ti.
BOOM! RUMBLE...
The sound of the towering Jade Gray Mist Waves from the outside world echoed once more.
The second wave surged forward again.
The previous wave of Jade Grey Mist was rely the first, just an appetizer.
As ti passed, one wave of Jade Gray Mist Waves after another would continuously crash down.
When it reached a certain point,
the barrier of the Steam Spirit Realm, which had been helping everyone block many attacks, would be destroyed.
At that ti, everyone would have to directly face the impact of the terrifying Jade Gray Mist Waves.
They would also have to face the attacks of dense, endless swarms of various creatures.
They would even have to confront the Transcendents waiting in the Spirit Realm from deep within the grey mist, as well as many powerful Extraordinary creatures.
Zorn, with his extrely strong Spiritual Perception, could already feel many powerful beings within the Jade Grey Mist, all spying on the Steam Spirit Realm.
The Spirit Realm war would last for quite so ti.
Although the Garrison of the towers could enjoy many benefits,
the pressure they had to endure during their watch was not small in the slightest.
The second wave...
The third wave...
The fourth wave...
Wave after wave of the Jade Grey Mist tide surged forward endlessly, like a vast and majestic sea.
The barrier of the Steam Spirit Realm had just begun to stand firm as a mountain.
But as ti went on,
amidst the repeated impacts, the barrier of the Steam Spirit Realm began to tremble slightly.
And as the number of impacts increased,
the shaking of the Steam Spirit Realm’s barrier grew more and more violent.
While resisting the invasion and attacks of the Jade Grey Mist waves on the Spirit Realm,
Zorn was also paying attention to the situation outside.
What surprised Zorn was that
this ti, the strategists behind Saintisman’s attack
had not made his location their main target.
Although several Level Six and Level Seven Transcendents had attacked the Steam Magical Castle,
after a counterattack from the Shadow Blood Race, seeing that they couldn’t effectively break through the Steam Magical Castle,
these people had actually retreated silently.
Upon noticing this situation,
Zorn imdiately condensed a grey mist shadow with a Golden Outline and took advantage of a lull between the Jade Grey Mist waves to arrive beside the Steam Tower where Lady Sun was located.
Lady Sun’s tower was a full 24 stories high.
Behind Lady Sun was not only the power of the Sun Church but also the family faction behind Isabelle; her resources were undoubtedly abundant.
On Lady Sun’s tower, an outline of Lady Sun’s face also appeared.
"What is it, Zorn?"
"Is there a problem on your end?"
Lady Sun showed considerable concern for Zorn.
"There are no problems on my end."
Zorn shook his head.
"Just a mont ago, all the Transcendents attacking my castle suddenly retreated."
"I suspect... they might be planning to join forces with other Transcendents to launch a combined assault on a single location."
"Once they break through a Steam Ceremony Tower, we’ll be in trouble."
Hearing this, Lady Sun couldn’t help but feel a little uneasy.
Because she had encountered the sa situation Zorn described.
Just now, the attackers trying to assault her area had retreated imdiately after a brief attack t with resistance.
Their intent to attack was clearly weak; it was highly likely just a feint.
"I’ll notify the others as soon as possible and have the Garrisons outside tighten their defenses."
"You need to be on alert on your end as well. It’s still uncertain whether they are redirecting their forces to attack you."
"Yes! Understood!"
Sensing the terrifying Jade Gray Mist Waves that were about to arrive, Zorn quickly dispersed the Golden Outline.
"RUMBLE..."
Stabilizing the Steam Consciousness Tower,
Zorn also opened his attribute panel.
[Star Trace Fighter]
Level: Level Six (99%)
After this period of growth,
Zorn’s Sequence Level was now high enough to advance to Level 7.
But this was not a good ti to break through.
However, this grand-scale phase ritual was perfect for accumulating the power needed for a breakthrough.
After all, Zorn wasn’t a conventional Extraordinary Sequencer, but the World-level BOSS, the Evil Spirit Wizard.
Zorn’s breakthrough could exploit a very interesting bug.
Normally, after a breakthrough, one would need a certain amount of ti to stabilize their Sequence.
This was an unstable period during which it was difficult to exert one’s full strength.
But as a World-level BOSS, the Evil Spirit Wizard needed to have its Sequence frawork destroyed through consecutive kills before it could be officially eliminated.
Therefore, the Evil Spirit Wizard would directly stabilize its own Sequence frawork.
After breaking through, he could imdiately commit suicide through self-sacrifice.
Once he resurrected, his Sequence would be instantly stabilized.
’The thod is good, but it requires using up one chance at Resurrection.’
’If I die at Level Six, my Resurrection will only bring back at Level Seven strength.’
’I might as well break through as quickly as possible.’
’That way, if I die and resurrect, I’ll imdiately have stable Level Seven strength.’
’Plus the sacrifice from a self-inflicted death, that would put at Level 8 strength.’
’Break through, die once, and resurrect.’
’Quickly stabilizing my Level Seven rank... the overall effect might be even better than dying at Level Six.’
With this in mind, Zorn didn’t delay. He imdiately began to absorb the power of the Sacred Marks during this grand and vast ritual, accumulating the power for his breakthrough.
After more than a dozen more waves,
Zorn continued to accumulate the power of the Sacred Marks while searching for the right opportunity to break through.
It had to be said, as a grand ritual of the Steam Spirit Realm,
its intensity was truly astonishing.
Zorn had only been absorbing for a short while, but he had already touched the threshold of a breakthrough.
’But this isn’t enough.’
Just as Zorn was continuing to absorb more Sacred Marks,
a furious roar exploded like a clap of thunder within the Steam Spirit Realm.
"Not good! They’ve broken into the fortress! I have to return to reality to resist their attack!"
As soon as the voice fell,
the Tower Guardian of a majestic Steam Tower within the Spirit Realm left the Steam Spirit Realm.
The aura of that tower also weakened considerably.
The operation of the steam slowed down.
Although it still had defensive power, it was a world of difference compared to when a Tower Guardian was stationed there.
The many Tower Guardians looked at each other, and their expressions all grew grim.
Although the defensive power of the Ancient Porcelain Holy City was not weak,
the various Tower Guardians were defended by their own respective factions.
Each of their locations was also very unique.
Once an enemy broke through and entered, it would be a huge problem.
’It’s that senior, the Old Wizard who likes to find fault with others.’
After glancing in that direction for a mont, Zorn imdiately focused his mind.
He needed to break through and advance to Contract Level Seven as quickly as possible to better fend off the potential, terrifying attack.
Compared to the others, whose positions were more concealed,
Zorn’s castle, by contrast,
had low concealnt, but its defensive capabilities were powerful, and its counterattack ability was astonishing.
Furthermore, his Divine Kingdom had already rged a certain degree of power with the castle.
Many powerful forces would join hands to besiege him, carrying out the hunt for the epic-tier World-level BOSS within the Divine Kingdom.
Just like the Chapter of the forr Evil Spirit Wizard’s fall.
A familiar scene seed about to play out once more.
And Zorn knew very well.
In the turning gears of fate, within this brand-new epic saga, such a scene... was bound to happen!
’I will be the next target of a siege, or the one after that!’
