n?”After all, it’s kinda weird. She created you and should be revered naturally, but you take it too far. Also, can’t you see that Myra doesn’t much like your devotion?” Dante pointed out casually, ending the livestream before Lara wiped out the souls of half the universe or more.
n“Ha, what would you know? You’ve never had the grace to meet Myra or even know what she looks like.” The ex-headmistress retorted with a sneer.
nDante shrugged. “I don’t need to have met her for that; the fact that she was perfectly happy to let Luka do whatever he wanted to you is proof enough.”
nCritical hit! -999999 damage!
nFor the first time, both Laras were speechless with ugly expressions on their faces. If it was during Luka’s time, they would have refuted this, saying it was impossible, which was exactly what she did when Luka confronted her, but after so long she would be a fool to pretend.
n“That… it is because of that damned bastard Luka… he stole her from me, corrupted her!” Sundress Lara could only squeeze through her teeth eventually.
nDante laughed. “It’s funny because I know at one point, you might have truly believed that. Now though, you’re just in denial, and that’s kinda sad.” .𝒎
n“Hmph, how dare you! You know nothing about me!” Sundress Lara shouted with a cold look.
n“Meh, maybe. That’s why we’re here, aren’t we? I figure that if I learn more about you, I can understand why Luka didn’t outright kill you for your transgressions but sealed you.”
nDante smiled pointedly at Lara. “I have just become an origin being and I can already tell that the story that he couldn’t end you is bull**. All it would take is a snap of his fingers and you’re gone, but you have something that makes him unwilling to kill you and you know it.”
nLara froze and then looked away. Dante could not even continue from here because this was not the kind of response he expected from this woman at all. Why did it look like she felt a bit of… shame?
n“Enough of this, I no longer wish to talk to you, cretin!” Sundress Lara stated coldly as she ignored Dante altogether and began sipping her tea once more. The former headmistress only glanced at him with a large frown and sat down once more, ignoring Dante as well.
n“Ah well, it seems time is up for today. I’ll call you guys again when I can assemble a small council of you. Till then, have fun talking to each other I guess.” Dante responded with a wave of his hand, sending the troublesome duo back into his quantum space.
nHe sighed and shook his head. “Utterly troublesome. Anyway, let’s check on Beatrice and see what’s going on.”
nDante returned to the Immortal World where Beatrice was spending time with Antonia as usual. He glanced at Beatrice seriously and asked her. “Are you ready?”
nBeatrice put Antonia into Dante’s arms and nodded with a confident smile. “There’s nothing in this world that can stop me.”
nAntonia had question marks above her head as she had no idea what her parents were talking about, but she was smart enough not to disturb them. She lay on Dante’s shoulder and watched as the two left their home and ascended into the sky.
n“Are you sure you want to do it here?” Dante asked with a raised eyebrow.
n“While there are many better places, it really doesn’t matter thanks to the Concoction of Absorption anyway.” Beatrice explained as she stood right above the cloud layer of the world, causing the fresh moonlight to cascade down around them beautifully.
nAntonia was enraptured by the sight, but she had not seen anything yet. The current Beatrice had already reached the peak of cultivation at the Immortal Emperor realm. While she was exceedingly powerful for a grandmaster, she still was not on the level of an Origin God, not even a half one.
nAs such, after biding her time and storing as much energy as she could, it was time to finally ignite her Origin Core. Her process was slightly different from Dante’s since he used many different quantum power systems plus some boons to coalesce a basic Origin Core, but Beatrice had learned from his experience and came prepared.
nDante smiled and nodded to Beatrice, who closed her eyes and entered her soul space. Immediately, she did the same as Dante, crushing the entirety of her various powers minus the link to Dante’s Quantum Entanglement, which she could not even if she wanted to.
nThe recently restored superpowers of Gluttony, Devour, and Regeneration were shattered and pulled to the center, along with her martial arts and internal true qi which was dazzling as the sun.
nFollowing that was a wave of immortal qi that quickly became the binding agent for these powers and dragged them into a spot to form a sphere that was dark golden in color. It was only when Beatrice funneled the huge volume of immortal qi in her body into the budding core that it changed color to bright golden like Dante.
nIt took every bit of immortal qi she had painstakingly saved up ever since she reached the peak of cultivation in the first month to cause the Origin Core to enter the second stage, which was where it began to pulse weakly.
nBeatrice knew that this was the critical moment, so she immediately opened up her soul space to the world using the bridge she formed using cultivation. Her Concoction of Absorption was activated using every drop of her stats, even those that were boosted using her still functioning Bionics and Psionics.
nThe entire world began to quake and shake violently as all energy from as far as millions of miles away, from as far as the very corner of the world, rushed over like a bullet towards Beatrice’s location.
nBecause she was airborne, the energy rose into the sky and rushed through the air, forming gigantic dragons that were the size of small planets.
nEvery living being paid witness to this fact, their faces changing to horror as they could instinctively sense that something malicious was going on. Even the world will of the Immortal World woke up and began to wail in fear as all of its power was rapidly drained, turning it from a young child-like silhouette into that of a baby, and then degrading further into that of a seed.
nThe elders and sect master of the Pure Heaven Sect quickly rose into the sky, followed by some of their ancient patriarchs and matriarchs who were in seclusion to try and discover a realm above Immortal Emperor as well as preserve their lives.
nTheir faces were full of shock and fear, glancing at Beatrice who was practically invisible now beneath all the energy that was rushing into her, making her turn into a small sun of spiritual energy.
nSeeing Dante holding Antonia by the side with a smile, their focus immediately fell on him.
n“Guest Elder Dante, what is going on?!” The Sect Master stepped forward and asked with a hint of rebuke.
nDante noticed them and then remembered that they existed. However, he could not allow them to mess with Beatrice at this time, no matter how minuscule their influence would be.
n“She is ascending to the realm beyond Immortal Emperor.” Dante answered simply, telling them what they wanted to hear and making it soundless dangerous than it actually was for everyone.
nDante’s words caused thunder to explode in the minds of all of them regardless of their age. Many had long reached the peak of Immortal Emperor or were at least very near there and were distraught by the lack of a path forward.
nNow that this had been said, their first instinct was to disbelieve it, but then look at the phenomenon Beatrice was causing. Even if all of them here fused into one powerful being, they wouldn’t be able to do one-tenth of what Beatrice was doing now, so how could they not believe it?
n“Settle down. If she succeeds we will naturally share the method with the sect that raised us. However, if she fails, not only will the way forward be permanently lost, but there will be great damage to the world.” Dante added to make these fellows behave.
nThey all froze in the air with pondering expressions, wondering if it was worth it to continue like this when Elder Ling stepped forward with a smile. “Ever since the first day I escorted you around the sect, I knew you two would achieve the impossible. I believe we can assist somewhat, but the main problem is not us.”
nElder Ling forked a crooked finger to the distance, where thousands of sonic booms were occurring. “The real issue is that the other powerhouses of the world will not stand for us having something that breaks the balance of power and will definitely strike at Guest Elder Beatrice.”
