Chapter 526: Entering the Ruler’s World(1)

“Argh,” Talia groaned in frustration.

Talia had been traveling in the Conspiracy continent for the past few centuries, and yet she still hadn’t come across the end of this place or even close to it.

“Do I have no choice other than to enter the world?” Talia mumbled and asked herself.

Due to traveling for centuries, Talia had come across a few central rulers and had found out about the ruler and the world it had created for others if they wanted to reach her.

After learning about the world, Talia’s intuition warned her not to enter it since she had heard from one of the central rulers that none had succeeded in crossing it, despite it being countless years since its creation.

There was another reason behind Talia not entering the world right away since the world provided no other benefit than reaching the ruler. From what Talia had heard from the central ruler, there was no comparison between her and the ruler when it came to their strength, so Talia appearing in front of the ruler would be no less than a suicide.

If Talia knew that there were benefits to clearing the cities and reaching the exit inside the world, she would’ve entered it.

Unlike Talia, who couldn’t make her decision of whether she wanted to enter the world or not, Oxen, the last alive Void beast in the Conspiracy continent, was on his way to enter the world.

Oxen also faced the same dilemma, but since he had gotten frustration after traveling endlessly for a few centuries without seeing no end to it, he decided to enter it. The other reason for him entering was that he still didn’t know which Void beast had died and how they had died?

Hoping that the world would allow him to finally reach the end and find the reason behind the sudden appearance of the portal, Oxen took a deep breath and entered the space crack in front of him.

The next moment, Oxen found himself in an unfamiliar world.

As far as his eyes could see, there was nothing but a vast garden filled with various kinds of plants, trees, and flowers.

A scent that could soothe the soul of anyone smelling it was permeating across the entire area. Even Oxen couldn’t stop himself as he took a deep breath and inhaled the fragrant air.

The next moment, a glint passed through his eyes as he looked around him.

“Whoosh!”

“Whoosh!”

“Whoosh!”

Only a few minutes had passed since Oxen appeared here when he heard continuous sounds of something tearing through the air.

Oxen still had restrictions on him, so he was aware that whatever had made the sound, it was not very far from him. But since he could neither point his finger at what direction the sound originated from nor could he see anything no matter in what direction he looked, Oxen had no idea what it was.

The next moment, his face turned grave since he sensed a danger to his life.

Unfortunately for him, the sensation originated from everywhere around him, so Oxen had no idea what he should do next.

“Puchi!”

“Puchi!”

“Puchi!”

Before Oxen could even think of what to do to protect himself, unknown and invisible projectiles pierced him.

“Ugh!” Oxen groaned in pain as he looked at his body. He still couldn’t see what the projectiles were, but he could see the numerous tiny holes that had appeared in his upper body.

Oxen also noticed something peculiar. None of the projectiles had hit any of Oxen’s vitals.

“Ugh!” Oxen groaned again, but it was not due to the pain created by the projectile. But instead, a headache suddenly attacked him.

Oxen grabbed his head, forgetting about the projectiles and the blood slowly pouring out from the numerous injuries spread across his body.

His eyelids started turning heavy, forcing him to sleep. Oxen guessed the projectiles to be the reason behind the sudden drowsiness. He attempted to use his energy to fight whatever the attack had added to his body, but unfortunately for him, he found that his energy levels were sealed. He could do nothing but helplessly wait for himself to fall unconscious.

Time flew by.

“THUD!”

Oxen’s giant body fell into the garden, creating a cloud of dust and an earthquake and making a loud crashing sound.

If not for his high-level cultivation and bloodline, Oxen would’ve fallen unconscious earlier.

“Whoosh!”

“Whoosh!”

“Whoosh!”

Not long after Oxen fell unconscious, several silhouettes started appearing around him.

“Damn it. Father, ruined our invisible arrows again,” A man cried and cursed in pain as he took out the projectiles from Oxen’s upper body.

“What has happened to Father? Why is he acting like a lunatic for the past few days?” Another man commented with a gentle and concerned tone.

If Oxen were to regain consciousness right now, he would get the shock of his life, seeing the actual appearances of the silhouettes in front of him.

“Let’s talk about it later. Our mother must be worried. Let’s take him home,” Another man voiced out his opinion. His tone contained nothing but helplessness as if the man had already gotten used to these antics. He then looked at the garden his father’s giant body had ruined.

The man couldn’t help but feel a pang in his heart since it had taken a lot of effort from him and his siblings to make the garden into what it looked like before the crash.

No one had any problems with what the man said since he was the eldest of the siblings and also the mightiest one, so other siblings joined the man to carry their father back to their home.

“Damn it. Let’s do it. The worst that could happen is I would die,” Talia muttered in frustration as she stood in front of the point.

The next moment, Talia raised her hand and touched the point.

The point fluctuated as the space around it started cracking like glass. Its shards fell to the ground, but before they could land, an invisible force would act and disintegrate it.

Not long after, a space crack similar to a portal the size of the current Talia welcomed her.

Talia took a deep breath as she calmed her mind and heart. She then raised her right hand and touched the portal just by the tip of her finger.
