The moment Kent stepped out of the Ice fortress he built for his short seclusion, it crumbled. Gaap floated down, his expression calm as he scanned Kent for a few seconds before he smiled.

"Looks like you have reached a milestone, Master. Congratulations."

Kent smiled and nodded, "Thank you, Gaap. I have indeed made big progress this time. But so did you. I can feel the changes."

"I didn't sit idle either. Although I couldn't break the first seal since we are still in a high world, I managed to form a Resentful Tattoo that lets me tap into 30% of the first seal's powers.

I believe that will be enough for the adventure ahead of us." Gaap said with an enthusiastic smile. He is thrilled and ready for the adventure ahead.

He is a living sword that had once fought in an era-ending battle, so obviously, just 30% of his first sealed power isn't going to be small.

Kent may not want to say it, but whenever he wields Gaap, the hidden power he feels buried deep within him is just terrifying. He said he had 9 seals to break as he continues to grow.

So Kent is ready to see what he has in store for him.

With the two of them working together, the next battles ahead of them would be much more manageable. Kent had become a monster in his own right, so he was ready for anything.

"That is good to hear. In any case, we have to move. The faster we clear the temple, the better," Gaap nodded, and they started flying toward the Void Temple.

During the ten days of massacre, he passed by the Void Temple, so he knew where to go now.

Although it isn't within the scan radius of his soul map, the moment they moved for 5 minutes, Kent saw the temple. However, he didn't teleport to it.

They took their dear time and flew to it.

After a few more minutes, they arrived at the red pagoda.

"Looks beautiful for a void temple," Gaap said, his expression calm. The pagoda stood majestically, the power of the void oozing off it.

If one is not aware, they would think it is a treasure, but once they enter, they would know it is anything but a treasure. The horrors hidden within it are no joke.

Kent didn't know much about the Void Temple masters hidden in this particular Void Temple. However, he had already ranked them as some of the most powerful beings during the Primordial Era, so he is prepared for anything.

But then again, what he didn't know was that the temple masters are like criminals in the Void Beast Race, sent to somehow contribute to the cause of the Void Beasts.

They aren't their best; however, many succeeded, and many also died at the claws of the Chaos Dragon and a few brave others.

Now, it seems they would be meeting him again, and this time, Kent plans to make it his mission to go after them before they cause too much damage.

The invasion of the Void Beast is destined to happen; however, he would not allow the criminals of the Void Beast Race to run rampant in his universe.

"There is a chance the moment we enter, we would be attacked, so be ready," Kent said to Gaap, who nodded and transformed into his sword form.

Kent grabbed hold of him and slowly started walking toward the entrance leading to the first floor of the void temple.

A few seconds later, he stood at the entrance, his expression calm. He had done this many times before, but that doesn't mean it was fun.

"Maybe I would enjoy it this time around."

After taking a deep breath, Kent walked through and appeared on scorched earth. The moment he walked through the door, he found himself standing at the centre of a lava sea.

"Well, that is also one way to start things..." Kent looked around, but aside from the sea of lava, there was nothing else in sight.

"Strange, they usually attack the moment you appear. They've nearly killed me a few times in the past with that move. So why is the temple master not here?"

Kent became puzzled.

What he knew from the Primordial Era had proven to be wrong this time around. The attack he anticipated never came. That wasn't how he remembered the Void Beasts, so this took him by surprise.

However, he didn't let it get to him. He opened the soul map, and the 80,000 km appeared within his sensing range.

All around, he saw nothing but a sea of lava. However, he also saw something akin to a trail which led west.

So he teleported to the edge of his soul map toward the west and, expanding the sensing range again, saw dry ground, though lava channels ran everywhere.

"If I am not mistaken, this is a Primordial Void Flame. If I get some more flame treasures, I am sure forming my second flame core wouldn't be too hard."

[That is indeed true. However, the master must first clear the temple of all dangers before he can do that.]

Kent is, of course, aware of that, so he started moving in the direction of the dried ground. After teleporting five more times, Kent saw who he had come for, seated on a flaming throne, his gaze burning in an unholy radiance.

He is about 4 meters tall and has obsidian skin split by molten void-flame veins. A deadly flaming scythe rested on the back of his flame throne, his gaze locked on Kent.

"You are finally here," he asked, his expression burning like a tsunami.

"Took me a minute, but I am indeed here. I have, after all, entered this godforsaken place for you ugly bastards."

"So you know who I am." There seems to be a hint of surprise in his flame-lit eyes. They, after all, are Void Beasts, so he never expected someone in this era to be aware of their existence.

They only existed during the Primordial Era.

"There is no way I wouldn't know who you are, fella. I have always dreamt of when you losers would show up again. I mean, after you were miserably defeated and driven away like a bunch of losers the last time."

BOOM

The taunt got to the temple master, so his fury exploded, causing the space around him to burst into flames. Lava gushed out, spraying all around.

"No need to throw a tantrum. I doubt you were even born back then. But even if you were, considering how pitiful your people were back then, you would have died like a bug, crashed like a nut.

So be grateful for that. However, since you are here, then despair, for I have come to do what we couldn't during the Primordial Era."

BOOM

Kent's own killing intent exploded, and at once, the air inside the first floor of the void temple turned grim. Kent's new and improved killing intent had already reached a whole new level.

"I, Vhar'Zeth, the first temple master of fire, will slay you and use your blood to—"

"Cut the shit, bastard." Kent arrived in front of him and struck with his sword. With danger coming, Vhar'Zeth was forced to keep his mouth shut and retaliate.

BOOM

He was sent flying, his flaming scythe flying out from his hand.
