The black snakes went into a frenzy just like their maker. Instead of forcing themselves to leave lethal damage to Claude's body, they focused on hindering him

Buying some time is definitely way better than killing Claude. The snakes did their best to wrap around his body and hold him back

The delay that the Serpentine Empress causes was a delight to Rezen no matter how much he hates the person that was the cause of his parent's deaths

The farm continued to absorb the origin energy but it didn't expand at all. One-half of the origin energy was used to fortify the farm itself while the other half was condensed on a single point and was calmly stored at the farm

The treasure gourd of the Serpentine Empress would blush in shame if it was still intact due to the absorption rate of the farm

"AAHHH!!!" Claude raged. He knew that Rezen is close to achieving his goal and that filled him with endless fury

Why can't people sacrifice for the greater good? Do they greed for power that much?

"REZEN!!!" Claude shouted as he ripped all the snakes clinging to his body. Whether it be the power of light or darkness, both were utilized to erase the infuriating snakes

In return to Claude's anger, Rezen merely glanced at him. His eyes looked a bit apologetic but that was merely it

Greed and desire are human nature. Why would Rezen be ashamed of it?

He is doing this for the sake of his parents that were robbed of life. He doesn't care how badly people would think he is

In just a short period of time, Rezen and his farm finished taking the realm's origin energy that was supposed to be Claude's

Aside from a little bit of guilt, there was also a relief. If Rezen were to fail, he would most likely die because of his stealing attempt

But now, he has the origin energy and he could escape this broken realm to pursue greater power in a greater realm that could potentially bring his parents back from the dead

Without wasting any time, Rezen turned to the small fairy-like existence of his farm

"Ivy!" Rezen called out and the fairy did not need to be called twice

The fairy started controlling the origin energy that they had stolen. At Rezen's current level, he cannot use the origin energy. He could only rely on the help he would receive from the entity that his farm suddenly birthed

Ivy stretched her hand out and she mobilized the origin energy. When she raised her hand, the origin energy followed suit and a bright golden pillar rose and breached the skies

The golden pillar pierced through layers and layers of the fabric of space. It rose and rose and rose until it was at the boundary of the earth realm

With how special origin energy was, even if it comes from a broken realm, the golden pillar was still able to pierce through the realm's boundary

Now that the golden pillar has breached and exited the realm's boundary where the laws were broken, the origin energy starts to do its work

Whether it be Rezen or Claude, they don't know exactly how the fairy was using the origin energy. On the earth realm, only the Serpentine Empress has an idea

In fact, she even thought of trying to steal the 'ticket' and escape the realm herself instead of letting Rezen do it

No matter what realm she entered, as long as it was not similar to this weird earth realm, the Serpentine Empress is confident that in time, she would be able to recover back to her peak condition

When that happens, there would be few people in this world that could possibly threaten her

p1ease visi(t) n0ve1b(in).ne)t

However, she was unable to enact her plans. As soon as the golden pillar breached the boundary of the earth realm, Rezen along with his farm started ascending

It was as if Rezen was inside a tunnel riding on a bullet train. His farm moved impossibly fast that even 7th rank mages would be left in the dust

"NO! STOP!" Claude continued trying to stop Rezen but to no avail

It took less than a second before Rezen disappeared from their vision. That's how fast the traveling speed of the farm was!

It was to the point that Rezen almost passed out. While he was still inside the earth realm, he could still handle the journey but once he was outside of it, everything has changed

The golden pillar was no more. The only thing he could see was a tunnel with chaotic lights. There were blue, red, purple, and white colors chaotically clashing and mixing with each other

It was a scene straight out of a sci-fi or fantasy series. At normal times, Rezen would be able to enjoy such a scene but his situation doesn't give him the luxury

His legs soon gave up and he was forced to his knees. He had a strong urge to vomit whatever is in his stomach

"Master, brace yourself. This is just the start" Ivy said, a bit too emotionless. It really gives Rezen the impression as if it was merely an AI

However, Rezen doesn't have the time nor the capacity to delve deeper into that as planar travel proved to be hard

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The farm that Rezen was standing on started to shake violently. A dome of golden energy surrounded Rezen as he watched his farm break

The edges of his farm started to crack and slowly collapse. The planar travel feels like it was gnawing at Rezen's farm as chunks and chunks of it broke and turned into ashes

Rezen cannot describe what he was experiencing. The vibration was not strong enough that he cannot stay in his place but he knew that without the dome of golden energy that surrounds him, he would have already died at least a hundred times by now

Bang!!

As time goes by, the vibrations grew stronger and stronger. The farm continued to sink. It started as a farm with a hundred meters as its diameter but it was reduced to ninety meters and it still continued to shrink

"Bleegghh!!!" Rezen was finally unable to take it anymore as he vomited everything that his stomach holds

He now realizes why he is the only one that could escape the broken realm. The golden dome that surrounds him was clearly weakening

The energy was only enough to protect one person. If he brought even a single person with him, the barrier protecting him might not last until they are safe

Planar travel is definitely no easy feat!

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Larger and larger parts of the farm were blasted off by the planar travel. It was constantly being reduced into ashes to the point that Rezen even wondered if it could possibly last until he entered another realm

However, with how he is right now, there was nothing he could do but let Ivy use all the energy they stored to keep him alive

The resources he got from his transactions and the leftover mana pills were all converted into energy used to save him

Savage Beast Realm

On one of the seemingly infinite realms of the universe, a realm that was as ordinary as it could be seen

This realm is just one of the numerous realms of the universe with nothing special on it

The status quo of the living beings inside has not changed much throughout the years but unbeknownst to them, someone that would take the realm outside down suddenly appeared

On a certain forest of the realm, a spatial portal appeared and from it, an injured and bloodied young man came out

He seems to be on the brink of losing consciousness due to how hazy his eyes were but a voice that rang in his mind forces him to keep his consciousness for a little bit longer

"Master, 10 meters from you is a rare flower that grew one seed every 10 years. By eating the fruit, you could erase your scent and presence by a large margin. Use it to prevent any magic beasts from harming you"

At this moment, all Rezen wanted to do was to take a nice and long slumber but Ivy's words kept him conscious

No matter how much his mind and body screamed for rest, safety is still the most important thing

After much effort, he was able to escape from a broken realm to pursue greater power. Wouldn't it be a joke if he died after taking the first step?

Rezen willed his battered body to walk the 10 meters distance. The only fortunate thing was that his goal was a flower and not a tree

It was easier to take a flower than climb a tree to take its fruit. Without wasting any more time, Rezen decided to swallow the entire flower and not just its seed in fear that he would pass out before he can do so
