‘What’s going on?’ Yeon-woo’s eyes narrowed. The Illusory World wasn’t breaking apart easily. If the being who created the Illusory World had an unrestrained Consciousness, the Illusory World could restore itself over and over no matter how much damage it endured. This was why those trapped in an Illusory World could not use their full power. That was how the Monkey King’s exuviae had managed to seal the Crawling Chaos.

Yeon-woo had already experienced the power of Illusory Change at the demonic sea, so he had already prepared himself for a struggle inside the Illusory World. No matter how Yeon-woo looked at it, the situation seemed unfavorable. ‘This air… It’s all part of a holy territory. It’s also a great holy territory that a huge society has unfolded. This must be Asgard’s doing, those bastards.’

Yeon-woo realized right away from the rich divine power that Asgard had completely changed the level of the Illusory World. However, he was alarmed to discover ruins within the Illusory World, something that didn’t usually happen. Despite its self-restoring power, the holy territory had been trashed.

The land was already a horrendous environment. The ground had turned black, with large mounds and deep holes. The restoration that had attempted to proceed had been interrupted for some reason, and the half-completed areas only made everything looked even more bizarre.

Asgard’s divine power, which filled the Illusory World’s atmosphere, was also in a strange state. One’s divinity affected the characteristics of one’s divine power, which could overwhelm the entire Illusory World. Yeon-woo sensed that the divine power had been burned to a crisp, as though it were deteriorating. Perhaps it was the result of the battle between Asgard and the Martial King. Even Yeon-woo found it hard to guess just how intense and fierce the battle had been.

Bam! Bam! Bam! Whoosh! At that very moment, as if in reply, the clashes rang from afar. A shockwave reverberated, and even though he had already achieved unity with Kronos and was close to being a supreme god, Yeon-woo grew tense.

『Son, is that…?』

“Yes. I believe it’s my master.”

『Hmm! I heard a lot of great things about him from you, but what the hell is this level…? Can a mortal really possess this level of power?』 Kronos laughed in disbelief. Even he was surprised. Kronos had existed so long that many beings would find it hard to even guess his age. It was possible to say that Kronos had existed with the history of the universe, and he had overseen many worlds and ruled over many universes. He had seen and encountered many mortals, and before meeting Shin Rhea and starting an ordinary family, Kronos considered mortals as insignificant as grains of sand on a sandy beach. His surprise meant that the Martial King’s existence was beyond understanding.

『Are you sure he hasn’t exuviated or transcended?』

“Yes. I’m sure. If he had exuviated or transcended, Allforone would not have let it go.”

『That’s true, but…』 Kronos let out a hmph before continuing, 『You had a lot of influences and advantages from me and Jeong-woo that allowed you to make such great achievements, but I can’t fathom how a mere mortal with no background could rise to such a level.』 Kronos’ words were filled with astonishment. 『Even if he’s the descendent of Shaohao-Jintian… Hmm. Hahaha. I’ve had such a long life that I thought I’d already seen everything.』

Yeon-woo rolled his eyes. It was true that the Martial King was great, but to Yeon-woo, Kronos was no less impressive. “I’ve always known that Master’s powers and abilities were spectacular, but is he really that great?”

『Don’t be silly. If he’s already this powerful, then, once he exuviates…』 Kronos stopped speaking and clucked his tongue. 『He’d start at the king of gods level. About as strong as I was in my prime.』

Yeon-woo listened carefully. Kronos was implying that the Martial King would bring out his full power and glory if he were to exuviate or transcend.

『And if he transcends…? Hmm? I guess he’d start at the emperor level from the start, right?』 Kronos mused. 『Then… how strong is Allforone if he can block a being like your Master?』

As he listened, Yeon-woo flew to the source of the violent clashes. Bam! ‘Where is Allforone? Is he ignoring this because this world is outside the Tower? Would such a nosy guy let this happen?’ Yeon-woo wondered the same thing that the Martial King had. However, Yeon-woo didn’t have much time to think as something like a burned piece of wood flew in front of him.

Crack! Yeon-woo swung Vigrid to cut down the object flying towards him, however, it felt like he was cutting through a lump of sand. The burned wood shattered and scattered in the air before it even had the chance to hit the ground.

『Ur!』

『Y-you!』
