….

The successful conquest of the Spirit Mark World by the hands of Lita and company is a foregone conclusion, the only thing stopping them is the apprehension of any odd and devastating Trump Card that the Sovereign may use if pushed very furiously and the other issue was the systematic demolition of the remaining sovereign which would take time because of distance, planning, methods etc.

Meanwhile Lita, Lancy, Anna and Ivy were engrossed in the findings they received and excavated from the Spirit Mark World so far, each one of them are at Morning Star rank and the study of soul is their path of advancement. The allure and temptation of spirit research and first grade research material is too high for them.

Slowly they methodically devoured the continents they captured engulfing the resources and research material which they recorded in database and send to Leylin in Magus World. There is no lack of geniuses in the Spirit Mark World as they also divided and picked out a few good seedlings to be nurtured as their roots in this world.

In Magus World, The time to rendezvous with Melinda and her partners to attack Düz city of Blazing Flame Monarch was coming near as Leylin wholeheartedly increased his overall strength as the party in Spirit Mark World urged their conquer.

Leylin didn’t bother to reveal his plans to the Warlock Union because he didn’t have much of an interaction with them, they were going to refuse anyway and also probably bar his departure so, he couldn’t be bothered. As for Bevis Rank 6 Misty Fog Giant bloodline, it wasn’t so appealing to actually hatch any plot Leylin would accept the bloodline and probably even the life of Bevis if he ever crossed Leylin’s path but otherwise he cannot be bothered. There is already a fossil of the Misty Fog Giant in the Union which he would seize if he wants to after the demonstration of his true prowess hence, there is no need to distract himself from his preparation. Leylin doesn’t desire to only hurt, injure or weaken the Blazing Flame Emperor but he actually wants to kill the other party and knowing her ability it won’t be easy hence, he have no time to be side tracked.



“Aaah! This can’t be happening! We are the rulers of this world, I would kill you demons even if it cost me my life!” A huge brawny man roared, a large energy force were surging from his body. This figure was the strongest amongst all the Sovereign—Muladhara Continent Sovereign.

“This is the end, you are the last one remaining. Unexpectedly you were able to preserve yourselves for this long but your time ends here! ” Lita laughed, looking around the landscape which has been totally pulverized. There was two corpses of Manipura and Anahata Continent sovereign laying down on the ground their Sovereign seat extracted, them including the one who died during an unexpected sneak attack by the sovereign when the Svadhisthana Sovereign died, now there is only one remaining. Who is standing before her.

“I would take it from here, Ivy and Anna got injured by them due to my carelessness I would extract the revenge for their last stunt.” Lancy exclaimed as she came forward and large amounts of demonic blue flames suddenly emerged from her body. Her hair were like fire embers as her steel fierce gaze seems to burn the void, a High-pitched phoenix cries sounded from within.

All of a sudden, the flames flew into the sky, gathering to form a devilishly enchanting Blueflame Vermilion.

“Searing Angelic Phoenix!” With the high-pitched buzzing of flames breaking through space, the arrogant phoenix spread its wings, spurring on immense tides of blue flames. Space itself was melted down, and the energy force that Muladhara Sovereign emitted was devoured and absorbed.

After acquiring and adapting the cultivation method of Matarisvan and emberwing race, Lita found that the ability of her flames had been upgraded as well, the two seemingly complementing each other well.

“Is this what your are so confident about, come on! you alone is not enough. Only all you together can hope to kill me!” The vigorous fire energy and the demonic ability caused Muladhara Sovereign expression to change slightly as he roared savagely towards the remaining members of the Sovereign extermination party.

Anna, Ivy, Lita and the Clone looked at his ferocious expression and immediately understood it’s intention to self destruct trying to deal with them but their expression were still indifferent except for a faint touch of disdain.

“Ahhhh!!! I would show you why I am the strongest sovereign!” His eyes immediately turned crimson. A powerful and profound force from an ancient expert emanated from his body, even suppressing Lancy to some extent.

That unique aura that came from an ancient era was something regular rank 4 beings did not dare offend. Just this alone gave Muladhara Sovereign a huge advantage when battling his opponents with power sources of a lower rank than his own.

“His sovereign seat is…..!” Lita looked in bewildered, shock as well as excitement a feeling shared by everyone present.

“His Sovereign seat is the Soul Altar of a Radiant Moon level expert!” The Clone Leylin exclaimed from the back looking at Muladhara Sovereign with fascination and greed.

“Should we help Lancy?” Ivy asked grabbing the sharp sword in her sheath. Anna also position herself in a battle ready stance.

“No need, Lancy is already at Peak Rank 4. That guy only has the sovereign seat of a Radiant Moon level expert he doesn’t have the ability to use that much overbearing strength properly, with the advantage of Lancy’s bloodline it would not be so easy to suppress her but we should be alert to not let him escape.” Leylin said assuming the back of the battlefield signalling other to take their position.

“I think it was him who was able to actually successfully use his Sovereign Seats power to bypass our security and sneak attack us.” Lita said squinting her eyes looking at the sovereign.

Like Leylin predicted, Lancy was not overly influenced by the attack.

[Beep! Host affected by opponent’s soul suppression. All statistics have decreased slightly.] Lancy looked indifferent as she saw her stats. The only decrease was in the unit place.

“The ability of the Rank 5 Vermilion Bird bloodline is very tyrannical!”

*Chirp~!* Under Muladhara Sovereign disbelieving gaze, the bluefire phoenix flew before him without being affected in any way. Two wings that were like long flaming blades crossed each other, and terrifying azure flames instantly devoured him.

“How is this possible?” After the wave of black flames passed, Muladhara Sovereign looked to be in a sorry state. There was a thick layer of energy armour wrapped around his body, resulting in him receiving slight injuries. The blow to his psyche, however, was incomparable.

“Isn’t it just the sovereign seat of the Celestial? You have a mere seat while my master is actually someone only those at the very peak of Celestial could even hope to match!” Lancy snickered disdainfully, and Muladhara Sovereign froze up, “What do you mean?”

The Radiant Moon rank expert are called Celestials in the Spirit Mark World, Lancy and other found various ruins, mediation techniques, ancient texts, murals and etc which increased their understanding of this world’s power level.

“What do you think?!” A look of satisfaction hung on Lancy face, which only made the sovereign want to vomit blood.

His supreme Sovereign seat is the gift bestowed upon by their ancestor who was a Celestial Rank but due to injuries his life force was dwindling hence, he couldn’t live for long. This sovereign seat is the reason why the succeeding generation of Muladhara Continent Sovereign have always been the strongest. And they can also use the water down version of the Upanishad perfected by the Celestial.

The seat provided the user with the innate ability of concealment, which was one of his trump cards. Even the other Sovereign would not seen through this, and this was the method through which he lead the others to sneak attack the team of Otherworldly Demons.

Unfortunately the calculations of their opponent’s ability and strength difference was inadequate which lead to the fall of a sovereign and the subsequent retreat of the other and in exchange they were only able to deal injuries to Anna and Ivy who recovered in a few years.

They have been on the run ever since and has been using guerrilla tactics which wasn’t very fruitful but sadly their safe times were over as Leylin and the team was able to find them and deal them crippling blows.

Fear of death rose in Muladhara Sovereign’s heart. It grew increasingly intense, and much of it transformed into hatred.

“You must die. You MUST DIE!” He howled.

*Rumble!* Large amounts of destruction savage force exploded, forming the figure of an immense being.

*Awoo…* The huge figure was of a phantom whose arms were held high as it began to howl fiercely. The suffocating force spread to form a large grey space.

‘Unexpectedly, It can show some prestige of the Celestial.’ Lancy’s pupils flickered.

Now that they were fighting with full strength, Lancy had nothing holding her back.

“AAAHH.! I want to kill you. Kill you all!” The sovereign snarled, the insanity in his eyes growing even more obvious. It was obvious that he has activated some forbidden technique and lost his ability to think.

His body crackled as his body grew larger, fusing with the phantom behind him. His power level were rising, the other in the back didn’t stop as they immediately used their Arcane Arts because it may turn out to be more difficult.

“I haven’t fought a real battle for a long time, satisfy the Vermilion which is etching to burn the world!” Lancy laughed, red rings of light fusing behind her. She dissipated, turning into large amounts of blue gases that reformed into a terrifying royal Blue Vermilion Bird. “Innate Arcane Art— Vermilion Bird Transformation!”

*Rumble!* Within the space, a giant phoenix with a body over a thousand metres long collided with a giant phantom. Much of the void shattered under this power, the stray undulations causing the nearby Morning Star Warlock in metamorphosis form themselves to shake slightly.

“Lancy’s strength has improved a lot!” Lita remarked looking at her with an impressed expression but she didn’t have any jealousy because she knew of the struggle that Lancy has put in order to reach here. But obviously seeing her like that the desire to become stronger also burned in Lita’s heart.

“Lancy’s has been able to gain a lot from the exposure with the Phoenix egg, her bloodline has made a remarkable achievement she might even breakthrough to Radiant Moon rank after a bit of accumulation.” Leylin muttered.

“The match is almost over!”

“From now on, the Spirit Mark World belongs to the Immortal Bloodline Demon— Leylin Farlier! ” Lancy’s voice was transmitted from the enormous body of the Vermilion. Layers of bright feathers constantly emerged from its body.

Lancy watched the Phantom Giant in front of her attentively, and it seemed as if a mysterious radiance was shot out of her opened beak.

“Breath of Ash!!” The Vermilion blackish attack turned the giant sluggish. A layer of ash-grey instantly emerged on his skin.

“NO!” Sovereign growled frantically as large amounts of blood-red light burst forth from his body, forcing the ash out.

However, the Vermilion had taken this time to rush directly in front of him, its huge claws cleaving across the horizon. A power that seemed like Armageddon burst out from it.

An explosion sounded as the Phantom Giant was swatted away. The large amounts of radiation energy in the surrounding area shattered, exposing the original starry sky.

“Burn!” A whisper sounded in sovereign’s mind. Before he could even figure out the situation, the Vermilion had already opened up its maw, exploding tremendous amount of blazing blue flames.

A terrifying burning force was transmitted from its attack, causing sovereign to shriek hysterically. Large amounts of energy shattered with a bang, and the Phantom Giant behind him began cracking up inch by inch. Light flashed within the grey fog, and the sovereign’ true body appeared once more.

Only, the current him was nothing but a burned corpse. His unwilling horrified gaze on the charred body told the unspeakable pain he endured during his last moments.

“It’s more or less enough, time to go!” She sneered snatching her claws in the corpse direction as a diamond like shinning item streak through the sky and into her grasp. Soon after, her entire body turned into blue flames the Vermilion disappeared as her figure emerged.

“Here, immediately send all of the sovereign seats to Master’s true body, It took us longer than expected. Who would have thought they would have such an impressive Trump card.” Lancy said while throwing the special sovereign seat towards the clone.

“One can never underestimate others, they have accumulation of thousands of years it’s obvious that they might have a few cards.” Lita spoke from the sidelines.

“Hmmm..It is good that Ivy and Anna were only mildly injured and recovered fast otherwise maybe Master would have needed to intercept.” Lancy said seriously.

“Yes, It would have come to that but thankfully it didn’t, Leylin is at an important conjecture of his experiments and we should only disturb him once thing get out of control. The important confrontation is near, he needs to prepare thoroughly. An existence at that level is unpredictable and dangerous and at the end the main factor irrespective of calculations is his own strength.” Lita said while all of them disappeared turning into streak of lights.

Although all of the Sovereign has been dealt with, the Spirit Mark World adventure for them is far from being over. There is much to explore, study, plot, experiment and find in here but that is not Leylin’s concern now. All of them would be here trying to look for opportunities as the results of their experimentation and the important data would be retrieved by Leylin.

The most important resource of this world, the sovereign seats has been acquired by him. Leylin with these could push his strength a step further and could finally clash against the Monarch with more confidence….
