chapter-368
" What the hell!!! How can it take this much time to kill just one person? "
The leader of their group, Dresniel, shouted on top of his lung. He was having a bad premonition and wanted to kill Athan as soon as possible, but they couldn't take him down no matter what they do.
They were a total of five people, but they still couldn't kill Athan.
" FUCK!! He is running around the tree again. The attacks we hit him don't seem effective, while he also runs around the tree, making it hard for us to attack him. Oh my god! Who the hell is that guy? "
" Any peak-stage Master order elite would be dead after taking our attacks for this many times, but he...damn him. "Actually, Athan was almost at his limit. His abyssal darkness had run out after taking the last barrage of attacks. However, despite that, he could still defend himself with his various abilities like Aegis Starwood chaotic body's self-recovery and healing properties, His Jadeite Exoframe chaos trait, and his body's natural healing factor.
He didn't use the Harmony of Giant chaos trait because that would make him easier to target instead.
After running around for a while, He once again appeared in front of them and provoked them, " Are you all really peak-stage Master order elites? How pathetic. Your attacks are so weak they are barely even scratching me. "
He then crossed his arms and spoke with a laugh, " Come on. I am just standing here. Attack me with all of your might, and if you still can't bring me down, then I think you all should fill a small cup of water and drown yourselves in it. "
Hearing this mocking laugh and what Athan said, They practically fumed like crazy and shouted as they prepared their most powerful attacks.
" KILL THIS FUCKER! "
Athan smiled and nodded, " Yeah. I am just standing here for you to kill me. Come on. Work hard, little boys and girls. "The reason he is just standing is that Shiromi is ready with her ambush. Her contact card vibrated, which served as the signal.
After two seconds, The enemies were still preparing their big moves, but before they could release them, Athan sensed something behind them.
He saw a mystical soul attack along with other colorful order techniques hurling towards the group of enemies.
The powerful wave of soul attack rendered every enemy fuzzy as whatever technique they were trying to execute was nullified. After that, The barrage of order techniques from Tongliz, Cait, and others from the group members continuously hit them.
The enemy couldn't sense Shiromi's soul attack before it hit them, but after that, the game was over for them.
" Hahaha. Nice job, brother Athan. Just like Mrs. Shiromi, You are way more powerful than what your order base indicates. "
" True. With Shiromi and Athan, We don't need to fear anyone. "
Shiromi shook her head and reprimanded them. " We may be the most powerful group here with Atha's aid, but don't let your guard down because anything is possible. "
Pausing for a bit, She pointed at the dead bodies on the ground and said sternly, " If we got careless like these people from the Dagger's tooth...then the consequences would be dire. "
She then smiled and said, " Alright, enough talking. Now let's go inside the tree. "
Though before they went inside, Shiromi told two people from the group to collect the storage rings and storage pouches.
...
Shiromi and others went inside the Demonic Tree's trunk to find an opportunity to a breakthrough, while Athan stayed outside because he had a different goal.
He sat down on a branch before closing his eyes. However, he didn't let his guard down and spread out his soul sense.
To breakthrough, He needs to comprehend the next level order of Heavenly Stream pressure and the Force of the Glittering River.
He also needs to train in 5-star order techniques: Four Stances of Destruction and Point Zero Bombardment.
' The first priority should be to reach Orderic Catastrophe. So, I'll put the body order training aside for now. '
He took out the scroll of Force of the glittering river and started training while making his subconsciousness handle some soul sense to look outside so that he can stay alert.
...
On the other hand, Tiana, Avelia, Qerin, and Mike also officially entered the Great Bridgade Palace.
The region where the Great Bridgade Palace was situated was unique because it was a closed region. Nobody could enter it without Great Bridgade Palace's permission.
The Great Bridge Palace also has a unique way of transportation as they open a bridge anywhere in the Chaosverse.
Currently, Tiana, Avelia and Qerin, and Mike were walking on a mystical bridge as they entered this closed region of Great Bridgade palace.
" How does this even work? " Avelia asked with curiosity and wonder. Tiana, Qerin, and Mike also wondered the same as they walked on this arched bridge.
The arched bridge was golden colored with silver inscribed patterns. The size of this arched bridge was ten meters long and just three meters wide.
Tiana and others looked back and saw that the other half of the bridge was in a palace and saw a middle-aged man standing there.
They came from that palace, and that middle-aged man was the one who summoned this bridge.
This arched bridge literally connected two regions, but its control was in that middle-aged man's hand.
" Stop gawking and go. "
They could even hear the voice of the middle-aged man as they snapped out of their thoughts and moved forward.
While walking, Tiana said with a wry smile, " This is really different. The bridge is so stable as if the two regions are literally connected. Even voices can be passed through because of that, which is impossible with portals. These Ancients powers seem really superior with their mystical things. "
" Yeah. Also, That middle-aged man told us that although ancient powers like them rarely make an appearance in general regions. They have quite a lot of contact with other ancient powers and regularly hold events together. "
Qerin nodded with an excited expression, Her ears red and eyes shining, " Everyone dreams of joining an Ancient power like Great Bridgade Palace, Boundless Pavilion, Star Hawk's Nest, and other such powers, and we already joined one. Hehehe. A new world awaits us. Let's go! "
While they have already entered one, Athan was also doing his best so that he can join the Chaos Monolith Hills. Even though he didn't know the situation of Tiana and others, He was getting close to them. Their meeting is not too far.
...
Twenty days passed and Shiromi and others were still inside the Demonic Tree's trunk.
But Athan opened his eyes as he managed to comprehend the next level order of Force of Glittering River.
Just as he was going to enter the tree and absorb some wild chaotic power to fill his essence core in order to saturate it, He noticed something and took out a contact card.
" Tealery? Why did she call me? More importantly, Since she could contact me even though I am inside a chaos phenom dimension, then...Her contact card must be very superior and expensive. "
Muttering that, He received the contact and immediately heard her voice, " Hey Athan! Arcued and I are coming to Youhan Tree Organization. Hehehe, Let's adventure and train together! Naturally, We have no intention to hold you back after coming there. "
