Uhhh…

Dante stood there with stupefaction, and the eyes of the three hellfire demons bulged. Even Volud was stunned into silence as he lay on the floor while glancing at the place where his former ‘partners’ were.

The room fell into a palpable silence.

Dante had heard that among certain species, bloodline was absolute and had near-metaphysical effects on each other. The Dragon race, the Phoenix race, and, in fact, many beast races had that limitation.

It seemed that the one for demons was even more intense, as high-rank demons literally exploded into a blood mist upon him being near them without even consciously releasing his aura. Immediately, Dante sighed as he realized his plan to subjugate the demon realm of various quantum worlds was now useless.

It was impossible for him to suppress his aura any further than this, and apart from maybe Demon Princes and above, no one could withstand him. However, Demon Princes were not easy to find in quantum worlds because they surpassed the natural power limit.

Like here, the strongest beings were 9th rank mages, but these common high-rank demons were at the 9th rank and even surpassed the quality of normal 9th-rank mages like Volud by comparison.

Only a special world like the anime world could have demons that Dante needed, but he did not dare to solicit demons from there. If the problem with normal quantum worlds was demons that were too weak, then it was the reverse for that world.

If Dante tried to solicit demons like Alucard, Dabura, Janemba, or Majin Buu, he would be smashed into paste, 20 million stats be damned. Everyone knew that power levels in anime were not realistic and nonsensical.

As such, he simply glanced at the frightened Volud and flicked his finger, letting a small tongue of True Qi land on him. Immediately, the entire realm of the underworld shook, and countless demonic wails sounded out, screaming for help.

Dante was speechless when – even while Volud was also currently screaming pathetically as he was being cooked to death by hellfire True Qi – every demon within the range of his spirit sense exploded into blood mist as well.

That was more than 2,000 km, but every demon in that range seemed to be affected by this tiny True Qi and suffered instant death. Who knew how far the actual range was since many demons outside the spirit sense range might have also perished as well?

Dante began to wonder, am I a demon… or am I a demon slayer? Which is it?!

With a tired sigh, he collected his three hellfire demons and then left the Magus World. He initially wanted to create some protagonists in passing but decided against it. The limit of this world’s power was too weak; it would not survive in the First Gate without crazy stats.

When he left, he did not release the trio. He rather directly ‘redeemed’ his character account from the Magus World, showing the totality of his resolve not to go back.

Hm, not bad. Dante did not expect much, but this was okay. He was not surprised that his rating for his techniques was low; after all, it was based on his virtual body, not his real body.

That was why he often strived to train his virtual body sometimes, but he stopped bothering after a while. The only reason he probably even managed a rating this good was due to the final battle where his fireball exterminated an entire faction.

Unsurprisingly, there were players among the Underworld Magisters, about 200 of them it seemed. As a top faction with resources to reach the 9th rank, of course, players would prioritize joining it instead of others.

Dante entered the True Martial World this time, reconnecting with his avatar he hadn’t used in about 3 months or less. Hmm, the last time he came was actually before he put his plans into hibernation to upgrade them as he had been troubled by the chaos on earth.

So it was actually about 4 and a half months or so. Whatever the case, when Dante entered his virtual body that was still lying on his bed peacefully, he was quite pleased. He jumped to his feet and stretched his limbs without feeling discomfort.

It seemed like after training his virtual body the last time, it paid off as there was no muscle atrophy despite not moving for so long. He then descended with his real body and felt the full extent of his power return.

Immediately, he wantonly spread his spirit sense out in all directions for 2,000 kilometers. However, unlike any other world where they could not detect nor recognize the spirit sense, this was the world it originated from.

All Martial Grandmasters and above, as well as those who practiced Internal Arts that had surpassed the 3rd level detected the intrusion. Many expressions became ugly as various powerhouses roared ‘impudent’, ‘uncouth’ and such words.

Those with the means tried to punish Dante by attacking his spirit sense, but their furious faces changed to fear and regret the next second as they begged for mercy. However, it was futile as their eyes, nose, ears, and mouth began to spray out black hellfire, signaling that everything within that person’s head had been burned into slag.

Even their souls were not spared as the hellfire feasted on them before returning to Dante, nourishing his own mind and True Qi. Naturally, the powerhouses who could not react but could sense the intrusion became silent with fear after they ‘saw’ what happened to those who attacked.

They immediately retracted their heads and became like ostriches, not daring to show their faces on the ‘public channel’ created by Dante’s overbearing spirit sense.

2,000 kilometers was not short; Dante had even gone past the boundary of the Great Song Kingdom, which he was currently located in, and affected two other empires, one to the south and another to the northeast.

Everything to the west was a barren desert with nothing but hostile monster life. Seeing this, Dante felt bored. He opened the game forums and scrolled through to see if there was anything interesting when something caught his eye.

Yeah, I’ve been following this closely. It’s like a warzone out there. You can barely move without bumping into a Martial God or Grandmaster of some Internal Art. I heard the treasure can literally rewrite your cultivation technique!

What?! Rewrite your cultivation technique? Are you serious? Man, I wish I could log into the True Martial World right now. Stuck in Quantum Economics class and my AI chip is already busy processing the syllabus data.

Back to the treasure, guys! I saw a video where some Internal Art Grandmaster was trying to sneak up on a Martial God, and it turned into a full-blown duel. The treasure’s gotta be something seriously special!

I’ve heard the treasure is called the “Heavenly Scroll of the Infinite Paths”. Supposedly, it contains secret techniques from all known martial arts, and you can absorb their essence just by reading it! I mean, who wouldn’t go crazy for that?

I managed to get a glimpse of the treasure, and let me tell you, it’s like the universe itself is contained in those scrolls. Whoever gets their hands on it will be unstoppable! The chaos isn’t ending anytime soon, folks.

I’ve been meditating and observing the chaos. This treasure’s power is truly extraordinary. But remember, it’s not just about power; it’s about wisdom and balance. Use it wisely, and you may find enlightenment rather than chaos.

…etc.

His eyes flashed with greed. If he could acquire this scroll, he could take it out, replicate it endlessly, and create an army of Martial Gods with perfected martial arts. As long as he could find a way to raise their SDI, he could create an unstoppable army of killers.

Immediately, he fished for more details and found the location of the current battle from fellow students. After all, to them,?this battle was out of their league and was just something to spectate, the ‘NPCs’ fighting each other.

It was more like game content or a game cinematic event to them, but Dante knew that every ‘NPC’ was fighting with their lives on the line. Unfortunately for them, he now had gotten wind of this, meaning that no one else could have it except himself!

Dante got up and left his room. He saw Jia Sus diligently training in his courtyard as always, still using the Enhanced Energy Elixirs he gave her. Unsurprisingly, the little lady who could barely enter the last parts of the Body Tempering Entry level was now a full-fledged Martial Warrior peak!

In just four months, she had reached the threshold of peak Inner Disciples and even some core disciples. If she broke through to the Martial Blood realm, she was qualified to become an elder or even create her own dojo outside.

When she saw Dante appear, Jia Susu showed joy on her face as she ran over. In her mind, there was no one more important and crucial to her than Dante, the one who had changed her fate completely.

Seeing her, Dante softened slightly and patted her on the head gently. He looked at the cute Jia Susu and couldn’t help but think of his child with Beatrice. He hoped that they would be just as lovable as this young lady.

“Elder Brother Dante, you’re back! Master Donglei came looking for you a few days back about the selection for core disciples to head to the Provincial Capital.” Jia Sus reported after happily enjoying her headpats.

“Oh? Just as well, I have something to say to him. Follow me along.” Dante stated with a smile as he walked casually and freely out of his courtyard, stunning Jia Susu a bit.

Why does it seem like… Elder Brother Dante is different?
