Chapter 1853: Negotiating the Conditions Chapter 1853: Negotiating the Conditions Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation He didn’t even have time to form an imprint before he shattered into pieces.  An ultimate peak expert vanished like smoke, with both body and soul destroyed—thanks to the fourth body.  Killing an ultimate peak in a single battle without using an eon artifact showed combat strength that was truly fearsome.

At this moment, the demons arrived to assist.  They were just a single demon region away from the 23 regions of the human race.  More than half of the 100 peak demons were ultimate peaks, and they could arrive here instantly.

However, they were intercepted!  A white-haired young man sat in the starry sky, casually holding a fishing rod.  It looked like he was fishing, with a hook attached to a transparent line.  With a gentle swing, he cast the line among the peak demons.  One of the ultimate peaks didn’t even have the strength to resist.  Bound by the fishing line, he was swiftly hauled away.

“Today, this path is blocked!” The white-haired young man’s words sent shivers down their spines.

“Another titled peak?” the fox asked in disbelief.  A peak existence who had comprehended transcendence was clearly very powerful.  In his hands, even the ultimate peak seemed like a mere toy.

The old demons from the demon race were extremely aggrieved.  Despite reaching their doorstep, they were still being intercepted.

The fourth crippled body advanced with his hands behind his back, surrounded by 9,990 shadows.  They moved with him, attacking the peak demons.

“Since you’re here, then stay here!” he declared.  “I’m afraid you don’t have the ability to make us stay!” The old demons looked on with intense envy at Braydon Neal.  The battle between the two sides was fierce.  The illusory figures moved like light, each attack a full-force assault at the peak of its power.  The demon race’s old demons suffered massive losses under this onslaught, with several peak experts killed, both body and soul.

The white-haired young man glanced over and smiled.

“How much of your original body does this crippled body retain?” “90%!” The fourth crippled body began to walk away.  The white-haired young man shook his head.

“Ninety percent might seem close, but without the perfect momentum of the original body, it’s still just a step away.

If I had known you were here to stop me, I wouldn’t have bothered coming.

It’s unnecessary.” “Your path is still lacking!” The fourth crippled body looked back and made his assessment.  He had already comprehended 70% of the meaning of transcendence, just 30% away from achieving it.  With that level of understanding, this universe would no longer be able to restrain him.

The white-haired young man shook his head.

“Even 0.5% away is insufficient for true transcendence.

Even the slightest difference can trap you for life!” “Demon race, innate race, saint race, giant race.

Why didn’t they show up today?” The fourth crippled body suddenly inquired.  At this level, many in the universe who had comprehended the meaning of transcendence had probably crossed paths before.

The white-haired young man smiled disdainfully.

“Since you have grasped the will of transcendence, how could you bear to die?

How could you bear to enter reincarnation again?

You should know that once you enter reincarnation, the power of reincarnation will completely destroy the will of transcendence you’ve cultivated.” The limits of this universe didn’t allow the path of transcendence to manifest fully.  Such beings were extremely cautious.  Both sides could see that the battle between humans and demons marked the start of unrest.  The signs were already visible, and the ensuing turmoil would only grow more intense.  So why would they rush to reveal themselves?

As they spoke, the 100 peak-level demons trapped in the 23 stellar realms of the human race were being killed one after another.  Those whose physical bodies were destroyed had their souls obliterated as well.  A peak cultivator, gathering his cultivation to turn his soul into an imprint for escape, was pierced through by Isildur’s ancient sword.  His soul imprint was destroyed.  Unless someone like the empress intervened and reunited the fragments of the soul at all costs, reincarnation might offer a chance of survival.

Old demons who came to help had brought their ancestral artifacts—a true eon artifact, a black scepter engraved with universe runes.

Innate origin runes.  As the white-bearded fox waved, a black light shot up into the sky above the northern region, instantly tearing open the sealed area.

“Let’s go!” the white-bearded fox roared.

The remaining 30 or so peak demons launched their attacks with all their might.

Standing in the northern region was a man in green, his brows dark with malevolence.

“Evil Lord!” Another figure appeared—Finley Yanagi!  His green robes fluttered as he brandished a long sword, determined to block the gap and stop 36 peak demons by himself.  Such boldness was rare.

In an instant, the third body appeared beside the Evil Lord and said softly, “Teacher!” “Go and help him.

You don’t need to worry about this place.

Those old ones owe too many blood debts.

If you can keep one alive, it’s a win.” Finley glanced at the old foxes, his gaze fierce.  The old demon’s hands were stained with the blood of human children.  Such a monster deserved death for his crimes.

The third body added bluntly, “The demon race has brought an eon artifact.

It will be very difficult to keep it unless someone transcends.”  To leave behind an eon artifact, one would need to transcend.  The artifact spirit of an eon artifact could challenge transcendence, making it extraordinary.  However, awakening the artifact spirit was costly, and not even an ultimate peak could control it.

“You have an eon artifact too!” Finley said indifferently.

The eon artifact, Universe Shattering Sword, was one of the four great treasures of the divine realm in the past and was as powerful as the ancient scepter.

The third body responded calmly, “The eon artifact has fully recovered.

The surrounding stellar realms will collapse and become perilous land.

This is the territory of the human race.

It’s not worth destroying the 23 stellar realms for these peak experts!” While the teacher and student were talking, the trapped peak-level demons were already charging forward.  This was their only way out.

Isildur also took action.  The killing trap had been set, and no one could escape.

Outside the stellar realm, the 10,000 shadows of the fourth crippled body struck down the old demons with every attack.  Eight or nine of them had already fallen.

“If we don’t leave now, we’ll be trapped here,” the white-bearded fox said grimly.

“Let me clear the way!” The eon artifact was with him, so he could only focus on clearing the way.  The eon artifact, the ancient scepter!  Every time he waved it, he was met with an attack from a phantom.

As the white-haired youth and the fourth crippled body chatted, they both kept an eye on the ancient scepter.

“30,000 years ago, you severely injured the artifact spirit inside, and it hasn’t recovered yet.

If you use a forbidden technique, you might be able to devour the artifact spirit and achieve transcendence,” the white-haired youth said casually.

“Devour the artifact spirit to help you transcend?” the fourth crippled body replied bluntly.

“I owe you one.” The white-haired youth had been on this path for far too long and couldn’t wait any longer.  The artifact spirit in the ancient scepter had been severely damaged by the Soul Slaying Technique and hadn’t healed yet.  If he could devour the artifact spirit, he would have a fifty percent chance of escaping.

“I will help you transcend.

After that, you will protect my son for 10,000 years.

Afterward, we will consider it even.” “Sure!” The white-haired youth stood up, swung the fishing rod in his hand, and aimed it at the white-bearded fox.
