The Evolution of a Goblin to the Peak

Governor Ray was overwhelmingly powerful. His strength let him go toe to toe with No God Emperor. He practiced all the techniques that were passed down to him. The skills to deal with No God Emperor.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

No God Emperor had taken more damage due to the constant clash. He was surprised that the descendant of his father was this strong, but after careful thought, he guessed that it was natural since the same blood was flowing through their bodies.

"Your techniques!! It seems that my father created something that could deal more damage to his own blood!" He said with a smile on his face.

The skills that Governor Ray was using right now were similar to those Dragon Slaying Skills. Those skills deal more damage to dragons but his skills deal more damage to the person with Vexus' bloodline. In short, it was a No God Emperor Slaying Skill.

"You will fall today! I haven't fully changed this body so the damage that you've been dealing to me isn't enough!" No God Emperor laughed.

Governor Ray moved forward and flung his fist coated with a huge amount of energy. No God Emperor already responded to it. With one hand, he grabbed Governor Ray's first and then kneed him in the stomach.

Bang!

But before he could even deal more damage to Governor Ray, Ibis slashed her sword. No God Emperor released Governor Ray and shifted his body to the side, barely dodging the blade.

Ibis continued to slash her sword repeatedly with the hopes of keeping their target for a while. No God Emperor avoided all the slashes closely. When Ibis thrust her blade, he used the back of his palm to deflect it. Then, he noticed that he couldn't move his body once again.

A slight gap was opened.

Governor Ray simply used a restraining spell called [Chain Capturing Heaven]. This skill held No God Emperor in less than a second but it was enough for Ibis to launch a direct hit.

Ibis stepped forward and hurriedly used her sword skill.

Ah!!

Flowers bloomed as a powerful energy erupted. No God Emperor's body crashed on the ground then Ibis followed up by sending multiple energy blades.

Boom!!

Souta watched the battle intently. The first time he saw Governor Ray, he already knew that he was at Four Shackles Realm. But he never expected that this governor was strong even among the Four Shackles Realm.

This guy was even stronger than Draymond whom Souta fought before.

Souta stood up and stretched his body. He threw the empty bottle to the side and felt a strong energy flowing through his veins.

He could go for another battle right now.

Although he could fight, he didn't think that he would win against No God Emperor in a one-on-one battle.

Souta looked down and stared at his hand which was gripping the handle of the vajra sword.

If they continued this path... Then, it means that they had to kill Yenxa.

Souta shook his head. He had to defeat No God Emperor first before he could think about it. At this rate, No God Emperor would really free his real body.

He turned his head and saw Alexander laying on the side. He approached and asked, "Are you okay? That guy almost beat you to death..."

"Does it look like I'm fine...?" Alexander replied with great effort.

He forced himself into a seated position before he glanced at Souta. "You'll go again?"

Souta nodded as he looked at the battle. "It seems so... Governor Ray will not last long since he used a monster potion to gain that power. I can only hope that he could exhaust No God Emperor."

"Don't worry, I still have something on my sleeve..." Alexander said with a serious look.

"What is it?" Souta asked curiously.

"I can't use it now but I can sense that someone is activating it in Hall Plains. The relics of the past." Alexander said and didn't explain anymore.

"I'm glad to hear that," Souta said and he felt that the burden on his shoulder had decreased a little bit. "I'll follow you when you are ready."

"Good." Alexander nodded. He looked around and saw Gerxuzs laying on the other side.

Gerxuzs had fainted as he was the most active one in the first round of battle. He fought No God Emperor one on one for a short amount of time before Alexander joined. From the start, he used everything without holding back.

Boom!! Boom!!

The battle between Governor Ray and Ibis against No God Emperor continued. They've already clashed tens of thousands of times in just a few minutes. Various skills and spells were thrown but none of them were able to knock down each other.

In these few minutes, No God Emperor received more damage. It was all credited to Governor Ray's destructive attacks. In his state, he was even stronger than Alexander's strongest state by a few levels. Ibis was strong too but Governor Ray's performance overshadowed her.

Right now, Governor Ray showed signs of exhaustion. Ibis was adjusting her strength to keep up with No God Emperor when Governor Ray slowed down. The side effect of drinking the monster potion was slowly sinking in.

Ibis and Governor Ray jumped away to create some distance from No God Emperor.

"Can you still keep up?" Ibis asked.

"I think I can only hold on for two minutes..." Governor Ray said with a tired look.

"Come and I'll send you to the afterlife." No God Emperor soared to the sky and launched himself at the two. He flicked his fingers and several energy spheres were fired at the same time.

Ibis jumped ahead and slashed the energy spheres causing massive explosions in the air.

Boom!!

No God Emperor's expression turned sharp as he went inside the smoke. He arrived beside Ibis and elbowed the side of her stomach. Then, he punched her in the face before he kicked her away.

Ibis stabilized herself in midair but No God Emperor chased after her. Luckily, Governor Ray intercepted him, and the two wrestled fiercely like two predators trying to kill each other.

Bang! Bang!

In the central region...

Amanda and the two archeologists continued their goals. They were inside a deep and abandoned ruin.

"We've followed the map and this is the destination..." Lindi said while observing the architecture of the ruin with an amazed look on her face.

"If we didn't find the map, we would not be able to discover this place," Jason added.

"So this is a ruin before the era of the Hall of Power...?" Amanda muttered.

"Yeah, we haven't studied it fully so I don't know if it was a Large Country or not. This ruin is ten thousand years old yet it hasn't collapsed. The people who created this place must be an expert." Lindi explained.

Amanda glanced at them and asked, "So how are we gonna activate the mechanism?"

War was currently happening in the entire Hall Plains. The Hall of Power has returned and it seeks to sacrifice every living being in this land. The scale of the battle was too much, especially the battles in the Mountain of Demise.

It was beyond their capabilities.

Only people that broke a shackle would have a good chance there. A good chance didn't mean that they wouldn't die, there were still strong people in the ranks of the Hall of Power.

Amanda, Lindi, and Jason weren't even at Shackled Realm. Their strength would help the people fighting the Hall of Power by a little bit but they rejected this idea. There's no point in going there with their meager strength. So they decided to completely activate the ancient ruin in this land, a kingdom that appeared before the rise of the Hall of Power.

They've visited several ruins ever since the war started. They only got delayed because of the appearance of unknown trees that sapped their energies.

"It's simple... We just needed to repeat what we did in the previous ruins. All the clues are here if you observe carefully." Jason said.

The three followed a passage.

Soon, they arrived in a huge spacious room. There were stones that were emitting light in each corner. In the center, there was a huge stone monument with several runes carved into it. Before it was a huge circular stone with a height comparable to their hips. There were several small stones embedded in it.

"This is it..." Jason said.

"The activation room..." Lindi said.

"I just hope that it could help us fight the Hall of Power." Amanda hoped. She didn't even know if their plan would work or not.

If they failed then there was nothing she could do. She only wasted her time activating all the ancient ruins.

"Let's go."

Jason, Lindi, and Amanda stepped forward. Amanda and Lindi worked on the circular stone while Jason was alone in front of the stone monument. They were activating the ruins using all of their knowledge.

Soon, the whole place emitted a dim light. Vein-like energy appeared on the walls, floors, and ceiling of the room.

The mechanism of this ancient ruin was activated. It was still working even after ten thousand years had passed.
