Chapter 78: A Fight For Survival
The lamp flickered. Talon’s breath caught in his throat. This time it wasn’t just the strange light that made him nervous, it was an unseen danger. His skin prickled, goosebumps racing down his arms, and his hand snapped to his sword. Neophage Fang slid free with a grinding whine, the sound coming from the cracks etched across its worn blade. Just hearing the sound made Talon's heart bleed, the sword was already nearing its end, and he was being forced to use it again. Fragile or not, it was all he had. He could feel it in his bones. One wrong move and he would die here. He was only at the first stage of cultivation, Awakened Level. His enemy stood at the Fifth, a Saint. Even worse, this one looked barely human anymore—skeletal flesh, eyes sunken, wisdom all but rotted away. “Arapis,” the Saint rasped. The voice crawled over Talon’s skin like nails. He didn’t know what the word meant. A name? A curse? “Arapis.” The second time came louder. And with it, the air shifted. The
Chapter 77: The Saint's Mental Island
Make no mistake: if not for the System, the worlds would have already fallen to Chaos. It is the only thing keeping balance, though most will never even know it exists. Its goal is always the same—push back the Path of Chaos wherever it grows too strong. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn’t.Understand this: most heroes chosen by the System die. They die on strange worlds, in strange wars, and they never see their home again. That’s the cost. But their deaths buy time for the rest of us, and that’s why the universe still holds together.The System itself is no gentle hand. It is strict, often cruel, and it will grind down anyone too weak to endure it. But it is fair. Survive long enough under its weight, and you’ll find yourself ahead of every peer you left behind—stronger, faster, sharper. Heroes who endure climb ranks, and each promotion opens doors to greater advantages through the Interdimensional Bazaar System.That is the true prize. Only those w
Chapter 76:
They knew they couldn’t win. The serpent had nearly destroyed them, and that thing wasn’t even close to a Saint. Facing a true Saint was like standing against a demigod. Their power was on a level that ordinary adventurers couldn’t begin to match. Against something like this, survival itself was doubtful. The figure didn’t attack at once. That was the only reason they were still alive. The dried, decaying body remained seated, the breeze touched the edge of his clothes, causing the tiny bells on the edges of the clothing to jingle softly. His lips parted, and a hoarse whisper slipped out: “Arapis… Arapis…” The name repeated, dragged through a throat that seemed ready to collapse in on itself. None of them knew who—or what—Arapis was, but the way the word carried filled the hall with unease. Asher, the vice captain, forced himself forward. His steps were careful, steady, though his hand twitched near his weapon. He only wanted to confirm whether this figure was truly alive or just
Chapter 75: Despair Given Form
There are, so far as the wisest can guess, an uncountable number of realities. Some are vast, others small; some simple, others more intricate than any labyrinth. Yet in all of them, a single constant holds: only the races of the Path of Order are born within these realms. The creatures of the Path of Chaos belong elsewhere, for their true cradle is the Abyss—an outer dimension so unfathomably large that it may rival the universe itself. I will speak more of that hateful place in due course. The Infinite Realities, though many, are not wholly unalike. Each obeys a set of base rules—call them laws, if you like—which bind them together in a shared design. But as one travels further from a known reality, these laws grow ever more strange. At a certain distance, they diverge so completely that even the keenest traveler cannot recognize what unfolds before their eyes. What is natural in one world may be nonsense in another. Between every reality s
Chapter 74: Escaping
The serpent’s hiss rattled through the vast hall, shaking dust loose from the cracked ceiling. Its massive body coiled and uncoiled in a frenzy, and for a moment the team thought they might actually reach the stone doors before it struck again. The carved slabs were already grinding down from above, their descent slow but steady, a chance at safety if they could just reach them in time. But the beast’s eyes locked onto them. Everyone froze when they felt it—an unseen pressure, not a physical strike but a crushing weight inside their skulls. Their thoughts wavered, panic threatened to spill over, and in that instant Talon understood what was happening. The serpent wasn’t attacking their bodies, it was invading their minds. He didn’t even think. His instincts snapped into place and he threw his will outward like a shield, a barrier meant to hold back the flood of psychic force. The backlash hit him harder than he expected. A spike of pain d
Chapter 73: A Candle in the Wind
Few matters inspire more awe—or more envy—than the moment of Awakening. In that instant, the ordinary spirit blossoms into something greater, and a Power Core is formed within the soul. Though every race along the Path of Order may Awaken, none may exceed five such transformations in their lifetime. Five is both the ceiling and the ideal, for beyond that threshold lies only ruin as the unleashed power consumes the vessel.The gods, or perhaps fate itself, have decreed that these Awakenings do not come evenly. Instead, each race is granted what scholars call Golden Stages—rare periods when Awakening comes more easily. Men are blessed with three, the Elves with only two, while the Dwarves boast four. Yet the number matters less than the discipline of the seeker, for an Awakening without cultivation is like a sword without an edge: beautiful to behold, but blunt
