In the cold, small cave nestled deep in the snowy forest, the Shadow Team's campfire flickered weakly, struggling against the wind that sneaked through the cracks between the rocks. Outside, snow fell heavier now, burying their tracks — but faint whispers still drifted from the forest, like murmurs from unseen creatures.

Darian sat cross-legged near the fire, his onyx pendant pulsing gently, reminding him of Valeria's vision and the Eternal Ice Mirror. Lena, Briana, Kenzo, and Tony sat around him, their faces worn with exhaustion yet alert.

The ruins of the temple and the secret of the interdimensional portal to the Snow Valley Sect still lingered in their minds like a shadow they couldn't shake.

Kai, in his flickering holographic form, hovered above the flames, scanning the runes he had recorded from the ruins.

[I'm still decoding the portal runes], he said, his tone more serious than usual. [But this takes time. Your pendant, Darian, is the key — but we need to be careful.

  • EPILOGUE:

    The world has changed. Not with explosions or cheers, but with a profound silence—like the sky holding its breath, as if the universe itself is learning to welcome new hope.The Upper World is now wide open. The golden veil that once separated reality and illusion has vanished, replaced by an endless expanse of honest stars floating without bounds.Amidst the ruins of the Astral Temple that had been silent for millions of years, four figures stood in silence: Darian, Yara, Anita, and Liria.They did not speak. They did not need to. Their souls were too deeply connected to need words.Yara stands with her head tilted back, gazing at the new sky as if still in disbelief. The cosmic mist flowing around her gently caresses her face, and in the faint glow of its reflection, she sees the shadow of her former self.This modern girl once gazed at the stars from her apartment balcony, wondering if there was any meaning in all the chaos of her life.Yara took a deep breath, her chest tight with

  • Chapter 107 Light in the Astral Ruins

    Darian stepped forward, his breathing steady despite his heart pounding. The Varion Onyx Necklace heated up against his chest, and in front of him, the Seal of Zarka floated, emitting a golden-green aura that swirled like a living dragon. “We have not come to seek revenge,” he said, his voice flowing calmly but echoing throughout the temple like bells breaking the eternal silence. “We have come to end your blind domination.”Yara, her hair blowing in the cosmic wind, stared at the gods with eyes full of passion. Anita, standing with her sword tucked at her waist, exuded a steadfast calm, as if ready to face anything that came her way.Liria, her face soft yet determined, reached for Darian's hand, her soul resonating with the power they had built together. They were not mere allies; they were one, four corners united in perfect harmony.Behind Darian, Sy'raeth's shadow appeared, not as a physical figure, but as a soft projection of light. Her hair shimmered like a stream of stars,

  • Chapter 106 Kaede Tsukikage.

    “Kaede Tsukikage.”Darian's voice was calm, but every word echoed in the air like an irrefutable law of nature. “Your threat has reached its limit. Today, your shadow will disappear from this world.”Kaede grinned, although his eyes hid his anxiety. “New powers? Interesting. But I didn't come here to avoid a fight. I came to take what is rightfully mine.”He waved his hand, signaling his followers. “Destroy everything!” The battle erupted. The Demon Cultivators charged forward, trying to surround Darian and his group.However, the synergy between Darian, Yara, and Anita was clear. They were no longer three individuals fighting alone, but a single living entity moving in perfect harmony. Their every move was protected, their every attack supported—as if nature itself was on their side. The presence of the three of them was a manifestation of the power born of love, trust, and unwavering determination.Not wanting the battle to drag on, Darian raised his hand and pointed directly at Ka

  • Chapter 105 Core Circuit II

    The dragon altar sky was not shining. It was dark. Silent. And heavy, like the night before the birth of the world.Darian strolled to the last altar, where Liria sat kneeling, her body covered in purple mist and illusory scales glistening on her back.She was like a dragon in human form, but tonight... she seemed small. Not because she was weak. But because the burden of history she carried had been too long.Liria bowed her head, unable to look at Darian. "I am not pure. I am not gentle. I was born of rebellion, shaped by betrayal.Are you sure you want to be with me... when I once tried to kill you?“Darian knelt before her. ”That's precisely why, Liria. Because you are the path from pain to light.You are not a complement. You are the perfect piece. And my destiny will never be complete... without accepting all of you."His hand touched Liria's chin, lifting her face slowly. Those purple eyes were wet. But not because of weakness—because her heart had never been healed... until to

  • Chapter 104 The Core Circuit

    Darian stood alone in the middle of a silent space formed from glowing stones and living mist. The sky above him was not the sky—it was a quiet sea of stars.Beneath his feet, a giant triangular altar formation glowed, as if calling out directions.Three small altars surrounded the center: one with a jade pattern (Anita), one with a wind symbol (Yara), and one with dragon scales (Liria). In the middle of the formation was Darian—the center of all soul flows.Varesh appeared in a projection of light.“This ritual must begin in balance. One woman, one direction, one will. And only you can bind the three together.”Yara stepped onto the wind altar. Her face was calm, her eyes like dew that knew its direction.“I have come to fill the space that was once empty beside Darian. Not to fill the void, but to transform it into power.”Anita walked to the jade altar. Her steps were light, but her gaze was like a fire that had learned to embrace.“I come because I have chosen. Not because I am bou

  • Chapter 103. Revealing the Truth of the Underworld

    zar-Valkun, the Demon Emperor, stepped out with the seven Divine Core Generals and thousands of Underworld troops armed with Void artifacts. His galactic wings spread out, his horns glowed, and his robe was like a burning night sky.He looked at Darian. Then he knelt. "Darian. Heir to the Unimprisonable Soul. We heard your resonant thud... and our world rose up."One by one, the Demon Generals dropped to one knee. "Say the word, and we will break through the gates of heaven with you."Darian looked at them, then looked up at the sky of the Upper World, where the heavenly light began to tremble."Not for revenge," he said, his voice splitting the sky and the soul. "But to expose the lies, and return the throne of knowledge to its rightful place."The Four Corners of the Soul formation lit up. The Varion Onyx Stone pulsed. And the world prepared—not to worship, but to stand again.The Lower World trembled again. However, this time, it was not due to war. It was not because of a curse.I
