this time eris couldn''t use the yin barrier formation on her cube necklace to hide the presence of the group, because they were fully surrounded by the bright yellow walls made out of yang accumulation crystal.

this place was created to contain the glacial liger, so the yin in the atmosphere was reduced as much as possible, with the only exception of the yin chain that was nurturing it, but for that, the cage suppressed it so the yin energy couldn''t affect anything outside of the cage.

unfortunately, the previous law integration beasts had already used up their yin chain links, or eris could have used them to power a concealment formation, but this was also fine.

the two beasts and the two cultivators who were fiercely clashing a couple of seconds ago, noticed the newcomers and they stopped fighting for a moment.

both the elder from the marsh domain and the one from the castle armored sect, immediately recognized alexandra.

"tsk, those fritz idiots can''t even handle a simple task, whatever i should be thankful that you did the dirty job on my stead", said the armored elder with a condescending voice.

since alexandra and the others were here, that meant the group of the fritz were dead, because to reach this place they needed to go through the area of the second node.

''and here i was thinking on a way to get rid of that ass-licker inner disciple, with these guys here, he and the others must be death, this must be a signal from the heavens, they want me wendel kasteel to raise!'', thought the elder as his excitation grew with each second.

naturally before he was sent here, he had to make an oath to not lay his hands on the diamond bone orchid, as it was destined for the son of the patriarch, and anyone would be tempted by such a treasure.

so wendel didn''t have any thoughts about the orchid, but when he met the law integration beast with which he made a deal, he got to know that there was a priceless treasure that surpassed the orchid, in this place.

just like lilia, those from the high ranked stellar systems and the upper echelons of the middle-ranked ones, know about the existence of spirit elements, but let alone absorb one, with a few exceptions of really lucky people, most cultivators have only heard of them from their ancestors, and there is no one who has ever been able to possess one.

you can imagine the rest, with the appearance of a restrained spirit ice, which wendel didn''t even believe it was possible, a new ambition grew in his heart, if he managed to get the glacial liger, he will be able to easily reach the heavenly realms within the next few dozens of hundreds of years, becoming a heavenly conqueror will be guaranteed, and he might have a chance to go further than that.

there is no way he will accept being bossed around by the silk pants son of the patriarch anymore, this was a chance bestowed upon him by the heavens, he just needed to kill everyone else to not leave witnesses and then he could disappear from the public, maybe join an evil sect in the meantime while he gains strength.

the elder of the marsh domain saw the daydreaming expression of wendel and he snorted.

"i planned to use the whore and that idiot to fight my way out, i guess less competence is also good, all of you will be good nourishment for my poisonous marsh!", the masked man was the same, he was consumed by greed the moment he got to know about the glacial liger.

such was the effect of a natural treasure that could potentially change the fate of any cultivator that obtained it, those two weren''t even yin cultivators, but if they had to destroy their own cultivations to re-start, they will do so.

while the human cultivators didn''t seem to be worried about the recently arrived group, the spirit beasts were bothered by something, they didn''t see the runic oak, and now that they put some focus on the connection they have with their subordinates, they noticed their life signals were diminishing at alarming rate.

it''s not like they cared about their subordinates, with the exception of their seconds in command, all the others could become meat shields for their fight among themselves and with the glacial liger, since it won''t just let them absorb it without putting up a fight.

wendel on the other hand felt his back drenched in cold sweat, as someone from a high ranked stellar system, he has heard of the monsters from the strongest forces, those whose cores''s sizes were six hundred meters or above, his patriarch was one of them, but even then, he didn''t reach the seven-hundred-meter mark, since that was a fundamental change in quality.

the only ones he has heard off that are able and also required to reach such large sizes of genesis cores, are the main branches of the ruler families of the heavenly quadrants, in the case of his kasteel stellar system, that would be the drage.

wendel felt his body shiver, as a wild supposition formed in his mind, he looked at that sun-like orange core which was radiating light, and his heart clenched.

"that woman is from the fey family, don''t hide anything and kill her otherwise we are all dead!", shouted wendel.

escaping from the kasteel stellar system which is subordinated to the drage is one thing as they don''t specialize in soul cultivation, there might be a couple of soul kings among their elders, but they are too busy to be bothered with chasing an outlaw, nor they will be sent unless someone from the main branch of the drage is involved.

but the fey are different, among the four ruler families of the heavenly quadrants, they have the largest number of soul cultivators, meaning that soul kings are always at their disposition.

looking at the size of agnes''s genesis core it is obvious she isn''t a member of a secondary branch, if she manages to escape, an army of soul kings will track them down to the depths of hell if needed, to kill them, such was the terror of a ruler level family.

the masked elder didn''t need the reminder, after cursing his luck to find someone with such a status, he didn''t hesitate to charge towards agnes, the centipede was the same, now that the arrow had left the bow, there was no way to change what was about to happen.

the two cores as well as the centipede which was covered in black-purple mist clashed on the air, it was a battle of a different scale than any other, the poison tried to invade agnes''s genesis core, whole the orange light burned away the poison.

for a split of a second wendel actually wanted to tell the gorilla that they should team up to kill the woman from the fey family first, because who knows what tricks someone from the main branch of a ruler level family has, but then his pupils contracted like needles the moment eris also summoned her genesis core.

''are you kidding me!'', he shouted in his mind, as another eight-hundred-meter core appeared on the sky, this time it was one wrapped in vines and leaves, it was as if a forest has been compressed into a spherical shape, and the energy it was radiating didn''t lose to agnes''s one.

"so mylene wasn''t going all out back at esmeralda''s secret realm", mumbled camila, mylene summoned her genesis core for a small moment and easily crushed the cores of the elders from ley''s family, it was indeed strong but it wasn''t that big, maybe around the four-hundred-meter mark.

"no, she probably hadn''t recovered enough to use the full power of their genesis manifestation realm, she and eris made a decent advance in their recovery recently because of the elixir i brew for them", said aster.

alexandra was speechless right now, she heard wendel yelling a moment ago, despite her not that high rank and status in the fritz family and her relatively low cultivation on the bigger picture, she knows about all the high ranked stellar systems, for her own reasons.

so of course, she knows that there are even bigger monsters behind of them, the four ruler families, fey being the last name of one of them, the way she looked at aster changed once again.

''so, he is from the fey family, that would explain why he has such a strong soul cultivation and why miss agnes seems to be fond of him, but the strong soul cultivators from the fey are all women, could it be he is an exception and that is why he is being protected by miss agnes?'', she wondered.

alexandra sighed, she couldn''t see through the black-haired youth, but at the very least she now felt a bit less wary of aster.

''if he is from the fey family, at least i can confirm he wasn''t involved with what happened to my father, was he telling the truth...''.
