Chapter539 The cold in the frozen city never truly settled. It moved. It slid through shattered streets and hollow towers like a living thing, carrying with it the distant howls of wind scraping across ice and stone. Frost clung to every surface, turning broken structures into pale blue silhouettes beneath the dim sky. Vladlay sat alone in a ruined hall that once might have been a council chamber. A cracked stone chair served as his seat, its edges coated in ice. His posture was composed, back straight, hands resting calmly on the armrests but his eyes were sharp, alert, never fully at rest. The communicator in his hand dimmed.Hoselowis had finished speaking. Vladlay exhaled slowly and activated the channel again. “Listen carefully,” he said, his tone firm but controlled. “You’re approaching the glacial mountains. That region is not empty it ocupied by dangerous creatures that will swarm and attack you” Hoselowis’s voice crackled through, tired and strained. “You mea

Chapter541 After confirming Felix’s location, the three rulers did not rush into action immediatly, tTheybegan making preparations. Inside the frozen city, Vladlay stood with Cloud and Hoselowis around a large stone platform that had been cleared of ice and debris. Upon it lay a formation schematic projected through layered light, its structure complex and interlocking, clearly designed for one purpose alone. Sealing space. The three Rulers plan to first seal the space around Felix trapping him, then they will ambush him together and kill him. “This won’t be a simple encirclement,” Vladlay said, his voice steady as he studied the projection. “ i have a fealing that Felix won’t fall easily.” Cloud nodded, his expression dark. “So we don’t fight him farly, We lock him in place first.” Hoselowis crossed his arms, irritation still lingering in his eyes from earlier losses, but his tone was controlled. “The formation has to hold even if he struggles. No gaps. No delay.” Vlad

Chapter 543 Although the three rulers had been momentarily unsettled by Felix’s calm expression and obvious preparedness, their confidence did not waver for long. They had come prepared. More than prepared. They have lots of confidence because of their planning. Vladlay exchanged a brief glance with Cloud and Hoselowise. No words were needed. They had already decided before arriving that hesitation would only benefit Felix. Without further delay, the three of them released their suppressive presences together. The sky suddenly darkened. The air grew unbearably heavy as three late stage Celestial level auras descended in unison, crashing down upon the highest peak like a collapsing mountain. Their combined pressure was not chaotic; it was controlled, focused entirely on one target. Felix. The surrounding peaks trembled. Stone cracked under invisible weight. Even some of the Crimson Victorium soldiers stationed at lower elevations felt their breathing tighten under th

Chapter545 Far across the ruined districts of Vibrant City, Vladlay remained sealed within the cubic formation. The structure around him burned with compressed Celestial energy, its six walls glowing with layered runic patterns that pulsed in synchronized rhythm. Every time Vladlay struck it, the impact shook entire streets. He did not hold back. Celestial power erupted from him in surging waves, gravitational force condensing around his fists as he hammered the barrier repeatedly. Each punch carried enough force to collapse mountains, and every impact caused shockwaves to ripple outward across the city. Stone towers shattered from the residual force alone. Entire building facades collapsed into rubble.But the cube held. Cracks spidered across its surface with every strike, luminous fractures spreading rapidly only to knit back together seconds later as stored formation energy flooded the damaged segments and restored structural integrity. Vladlay’s expression darkened. He

Chapter547 At the southeast of the Secret Realm, the rainforest breathed. Thick humidity hung in the air like a living presence, wrapping around towering trees whose canopies intertwined so tightly that sunlight filtered down only in fractured beams. Vines as thick as serpents coiled around ancient trunks, and broad leaves trembled gently under the constant whisper of insects and distant wildlife. In the heart of that vast rainforest lay one of five hidden villages. Unlike the violent terrains scattered across other regions of the Secret Realm, this area was deceptively peaceful. Wooden structures built from ancient timber stood in organized rows, their roofs layered with woven leaves. Stone wells, granaries, storage sheds, and abandoned watchtowers filled the central clearing. It was quiet. Safe. At least within the boundaries of the villages. Ancient Emperor Zan stood at the center of the clearing, a tall figure draped in deep earthen-colored robes. In his right hand, h
