# Chapter 4: Wisdom of the Supreme Sage (Passive): If you choose this enhancement, you may select two of the above three enhancements.
Seeing the fourth option, one couldn't help but sigh—truly worthy of the Supreme Sage.
After mastering "Supreme Physique," Su Xiao had been considering whether he should raise his Supreme attributes to 1500 points, or even 1900 points, before advancing to "Supreme Attribute." If he did, he could squeeze out 8 "Supreme Rank·Extreme Passives" and 1 "Supreme Rank·Extreme Passive." But upon second thought, this was clearly impossible, because "Extreme Passives" were only unleashed through the accumulation of physical attributes to a certain threshold.
If he chose 8 "Supreme Rank·Extreme Passives" and then mastered "Supreme Physique," raising Supreme Constitution from 19 to 20 points would certainly not unleash a "Supreme Rank·Extreme Passive." The accumulation wouldn't be enough; he would need to reach the 30-point threshold to trigger it.
Looking at the current strength of "Supreme Rank·Extreme Passive," it was incomparable to "Supreme Rank·Extreme Passive." Just this Life Core Penetration alone was something that wouldn't appear in "Supreme Rank·Extreme Passive."
Moreover, the previous situation where he was struck by World Lightning and had his Life Cores repeatedly detonated made Su Xiao realize that Life Cores were definitely not something you could feel safe about just because you had a few. The more, the better.
Su Xiao was naturally cautious. As for yesterday, when he had charged alone into the Abyss, that was forced by circumstances and certainly couldn't be considered reckless. Therefore, Life Cores were definitely better in greater numbers.
Having developed his Technique system to this point, Su Xiao had achieved great enlightenment. It seemed he had no talent for the Technique system. For example, sudden enlightenment causing his Technique abilities to jump several levels—that had never happened. The only time Heavenly Edge Shadow Slash had been upgraded without using resources was when he and the Underworld God had shattered Doom Star, and then it had leveled up once.
To be honest, if those top-tier Technique Grandmasters with extraordinary talent could cut down a Transcendent World with one slash, they would achieve great enlightenment on the spot and might even raise their core Technique abilities by twenty or thirty levels.
But Su Xiao never regretted this. He had a fairly good quality—a clear understanding of himself. No talent? Then enhance it through training. No Technique comprehension? Heavenly Edge Shadow Slash + Land of All Beings·Ten Layers for blade technique development.
No talent for insight? No problem. Risk his life, fight powerful enemies, seize more resources, or conspire with Kaisa and split the profits fifty-fifty. In the end, he could always raise his Technique abilities.
Therefore, Su Xiao never believed in improving through battle or comprehending earth-shattering abilities. That was why he had almost created his own path to becoming an "Extreme Grandmaster." His current philosophy was:
Don't worry about whether the enemy's abilities are rule-based or some lofty system. As long as his normal attack power was sufficient, he could always cut through those seemingly impressive abilities with one slash.
As for abilities involving causality, fate, and other similarly lofty concepts of damage—no problem. Enough Life Cores could withstand it. If one Life Core wasn't enough, then five. Five still not enough? Fine, then ten!
He currently had... 56 Life Cores!
Su Xiao's current situation could be simply described as:
High attack, thick health.
[You have mastered "Absolute Power·Causal Penetration."]
[You have mastered "Supreme Life Force."]
This enhancement made Su Xiao decide that he absolutely couldn't give up on raising "Supreme Intelligence." This ability might not seem to greatly boost combat power, but it could nurture "Wisdom of the Supreme Sage," which was simply miraculous.
If later, when "Supreme All Attributes" reached 30 points, Supreme Intelligence activated again and produced something like "If you choose this enhancement, it is equivalent to simultaneously selecting all three above enhancements," that would be a huge gain.
Su Xiao stabilized his aura. Just then, a notification appeared:
[Because your Supreme All Main Attributes have reached 20 points (currently the absolute highest rank of physical attributes), each subsequent point of Supreme Attribute enhancement will consume more "Star Realm Primordial Power." After comprehensive judgment, each subsequent 1 point of Supreme Attribute enhancement requires 178,650 ounces of Space-Time Power.]
[Verification shows your current Hunter's Mark level is Lv.105, and this is your unique method of Supreme Attribute enhancement. Your subsequent Supreme Attribute enhancements have significant recording value in Reincarnation Paradise. Reincarnation Paradise will bear a portion of the resource consumption.]
[Final judgment complete. Each subsequent construction of 1 "Supreme Free Attribute Point" requires you to pay 120,000 ounces of Space-Time Power.]
Seeing this, Su Xiao wasn't surprised. This resource consumption increase had come relatively late. If it were still Supreme attributes, reaching 1500 points would trigger this increase. Currently, 20 points of Supreme Attribute required 2000 points of Supreme Attribute to convert.
The good news was that the increased portion had been successfully "reimbursed" through his own authority. It was still 120,000 ounces of Space-Time Power per 1 point of Supreme Attribute.
Moreover, Su Xiao already knew that Supreme Attribute was the most extreme physical attribute achievable. Although when advancing to the Supreme Realm, "Supreme Constitution" would evolve into "Supreme Power·Awakening," that represented more of an awakening of some power rather than an attribute enhancement. "Supreme Attribute" being the highest rank of physical attribute was clearly stated in the notification.
That meant, even the Supreme Being had Supreme physical attributes. However, the Supreme Being's Supreme attributes would probably be ridiculously high, given their invincible combat power.
Since Su Xiao's ultimate goal was to defeat the Supreme Being, continuously raising Supreme attributes was clearly necessary.
Su Xiao took out "Fate Reversal." His current strength made the remaining few slots much less challenging. But on second thought, leaving aside other enemies, he had to go check out the Abyssal Dragon's strength.
It was said that the Abyssal Dragon was extremely evil. As a righteous Shadow of Law Destruction, Su Xiao absolutely had to seize that extremely evil Black Maple Tree—cough!—he absolutely had to destroy that extremely evil Abyssal Dragon.
If not for the Supreme Being being in the Void, Su Xiao would have set off immediately. His blade was even named Dragon-Slaying Flash, which meant there was a destined death battle with the Abyssal Dragon. He only had two Black Maple Trees, and leaving one with the Abyssal Dragon made him somewhat uneasy.
With 3,120,000 ounces of Space-Time Power remaining, Su Xiao injected 2,880,000 into his exclusive Attribute Enhancement Pod. After a moment, all his Supreme attributes reached 26 points. Speaking of which, it was fortunate that Supreme attributes couldn't be detected. If they could, someone might see him and think, "Oh, here's a first-rank contractor with top-tier equipment. Brothers, kill him for a Scarlet Card."
And this situation of accumulating physical attributes a few points at a time was something he hadn't experienced in a long time.
While enhancing physical attributes was satisfying, he only had 240,000 ounces of Space-Time Power left. Just before, he had over 10 million ounces. Now, Supreme attributes and Heavenly Edge Shadow Slash's resource consumption were both extremely high.
Su Xiao commanded his exclusive Attribute Enhancement Pod to open its door. He discovered that this pod, designed long ago, didn't have that function. However, the materials used to construct it were definitely top-tier. Looking to the right, pulling that lever would open the door.
Crack!
One of the hardest alloys in the Star Realm was broken by Su Xiao's bare hands. He looked at the half-meter-long lever in his hand, sparks of electricity still trailing from its end, and immediately thought he might receive another warning. Then, a notification appeared:
[Notification: Your exclusive Attribute Enhancement Pod has been damaged. This repair requires 8,526 ounces of Space-Time Power.]
Seeing this notification, Su Xiao's eye twitched almost imperceptibly. This was more expensive than repairing himself. He had nearly faced the Lord of the Abyss and been eroded by terrifying darkness, and that had cost how much in treatment? And this lever? 8,500?
Su Xiao looked at the lever in his hand and confirmed that without repair, the door wouldn't open and subsequent pod operation would be affected. He paid the Space-Time Power, reminding himself to be more careful. His current physical strength had reached an astonishing level.
After the door lever was restored, Su Xiao grasped it again and slowly pulled it down. When he released it, a faint handprint remained on the lever. This time, Supreme Strength had increased from 11.5 to 26 points—an excessively large jump. Plus, he had just mastered "Absolute Power·Causal Penetration," so his control over strength wasn't good enough.
Walking out of the exclusive Attribute Enhancement Pod, Su Xiao considered whether to find a place to adapt to his enhanced self, like the Tree Arena. That was the arena with the highest notarization rank. However, finding a matching opponent would probably be slow. He could try to match against a Supreme Peak opponent.
[Notification (Void Tree): Your application to enter the Tree Arena has been rejected.]
[Warning (Void Tree): Due to your excessively high comprehensive combat power, you are prohibited from entering the Tree Arena.]
Not even allowed in. Su Xiao left his exclusive room and went to the Trial Grounds' Land of All Beings·Ten Layers.
Su Xiao didn't train too long in the Land of All Beings·Ten Layers. Although there was no time limit this time, he needed to set a time for dealing with Arcane Eternal Star to prevent complications.
The teleportation fluctuations subsided. When Su Xiao walked out of the Trial Grounds' main entrance, he no longer had that vague feeling of losing control over his power. He habitually strolled through the Trade Market but didn't find any low-rank but excellent permission-type items.
Arriving at Xia's restaurant, as soon as he entered, Su Xiao saw the usually empty restaurant and heard strange bubbling sounds coming from the kitchen. Hearing this, Su Xiao turned to leave, but Xia had already rushed out of the kitchen.
"Don't leave, don't leave. I won't make you eat it. Where's Baha?"
"If you trick Baha into taste-testing, I'll make you my exclusive Big Chunk Meat Soup Noodles."
Xia confidently crossed her arms. This "exclusive Big Chunk Meat Soup Noodles" sounded ordinary—it was just spicy beef noodles with large chunks of meat—but the taste was absolutely exquisite. It was one of Xia's top three proudest dishes. And for these proud dishes, Xia didn't cook them often for Su Xiao. It wasn't stinginess or putting on airs.
In Xia's own words, the essence of delicious food was longing and anticipation. If you ate it every day, even very tasty food would eventually become tiresome. When you started to miss the taste of a dish, that added flavor to it. Longing was also a necessary seasoning.
Su Xiao looked at Xia. Baha was one of his life-and-death partners.
A moment later, the anxious Bubu Wang, Baha, and Beini occasionally glanced toward the kitchen where strange bubbling sounds came from. Su Xiao was enjoying a large bowl of noodles. Xia's cooking had a very unique ability. Even with his current physique and appetite, he could still feel full. And the only one who could make Amu full seemed to be Xia's cooking. This seemed to be a unique effect of Xia's cooking skill besides deliciousness—satiety.
After a hearty meal, Su Xiao left with Baha, whose eyes were vacant and occasionally muttered to himself. On the way, the melancholy Baha missed Amu even more and asked:
"Boss, when you went to the Abyss, did you encounter Amu?"
"He's in the Abyss Near Zone. That's more like an extension of the Abyss, not the Abyss itself."
"Oh, right, right, right. You told me this knowledge before."
Baha nodded, then immediately asked: "Boss, you don't think Amu will have an accident, do you?"
"No."
"Oh? Why? Even the Abyss Near Zone is dangerous, right?"
"Ayesha."
"Oh~!!"
Baha suddenly understood, and his expression relaxed. But after a full meal, various tastes—sour, sweet, bitter, spicy—rushed up simultaneously, and he became melancholy again.
"Meow!"
Beini, lying on top of Su Xiao's head, meowed and looked around. Xia couldn't bear to let Beini do rough work like testing inspiration, so after a hearty meal, Beini the young miss had eaten some of Xia's desserts and was now lying in her exclusive premium seat, yawning.
Just as Su Xiao returned to his exclusive room, he received a notification:
[Abyss Gem/Element Gem has completed this synthesis.]
Su Xiao, Bubu Wang, Baha, and Beini quickly went to the Alchemy Laboratory and opened that separate space zone. Spirit Shadow Threads retracted, pulling out a completely transparent gem. The moment he touched this gem, it was stained with his causality and immediately turned bright blood-red.
[You have obtained "Gem to be Named."]
Su Xiao checked the gem's quality. Finding it was "Immortal Rank," he immediately tried to use "Miracle Gem" on it.
With a sound, the "Gem to be Named" emitted bright red light. The "Miracle Gem" shattered with a sound, and its power was quickly absorbed by the "Gem to be Named." The strength of the "Gem to be Named" was originally between Immortal Rank and Reincarnation Rank. It just needed an opportunity, and this matter naturally advanced it to Reincarnation Rank.
[Gem to be Named]
Origin: Reincarnation Paradise (synthesized within Reincarnation Paradise)
Quality: Reincarnation Rank·Unique
Notification: When the current holder dies, this gem will shatter and reform into "Abyss Gem" and "Element Gem."
Type: Gem
Usage Requirement: Shadow of Law Destruction + White King + Hunter + Original Sin Guardian + Unique·Chosen One
Notification: All the above identities must be satisfied to use this gem.
Inlay Effect: Grants "Star Realm Characteristic" to the weapon.
Star Realm Characteristic: Allows one characteristic (any characteristic can be selected) of the currently inlaid equipment to undergo a flying upgrade.
Rating: This gem has not undergone rating notarization.
Description: Cold and heat, light and darkness, life and death, long night and eternal day—seemingly opposing existences may also transform into each other, just like Abyss and Element.
Su Xiao already knew which characteristic of Dragon-Slaying Flash to enhance with this gem. Durability could be improved by subsequently devouring more legendary famous blades. Attack power was similar. Sharpness was enhanced through strengthening. Among Dragon-Slaying Flash's four characteristics, only "Demon Blade" had begun to lose its dominant power.
But before that, he needed to name this "Gem to be Named." Without naming, inlay couldn't be completed, as this item hadn't been fully notarized.
Su Xiao, Bubu Wang, Baha, and Beini sat in a circle. It was naming time again. Although Amu wasn't here, that guy's names were always related to food and had never been adopted. This time's names were as follows:
Bubu Wang: "Supreme Gem."
Beini: "Eternal Light and Dark Tear."
Baha: "Chaos Gem."
Su Xiao: "Powerful Gem."
After some discussion, the gem was named "Star Realm Gem." As for Su Xiao's second name, Bubu Wang, Beini, and Baha nodded repeatedly. As long as it wasn't "Powerful Gem," it was fine. And "Star Realm Gem" was very fitting. The harmonization of Abyss and Element power wasn't that the foundation of Star Realm stability? Just like this fusion of Abyss and Element gems.
Half an hour later, in front of the Eternal Light World·Gray Sacred Sanctuary.
Su Xiao looked at the towering insect nest in the distance. It had been a while since he last saw it. Jila had developed the Demon Insect Race even stronger.
With the Eternal Light World as their base, the Demon Insect Race's development was on track. Recently, Jila had received a notification from the Void Tree. The content was that she could advance from her current follower status to contractor, or even Death Ranger, Battle Angel, Pioneer, or Executioner.
Jila naturally refused. She only wanted to be the follower of Law Destroyer·Kukulin·Bai Ye.
Regarding this matter, Su Xiao thought of a possibility—a way to obtain massive resources in that great war.
That was, when the Abyss Calamity erupted, and correspondingly, endless Abyssal creatures flooded into the Star Realm, making everywhere a battlefield. Facing only a regional battlefield was one of Jila's best situations. The problem was, when the insect race faced Abyss energy, there was no way to use the fungal carpet cycle to sustain the army-building system. Eventually, powerful Abyssal creatures would shatter the Mother Nest, declaring defeat.
But if Jila became a contractor of Reincarnation Paradise, then her notarization would obviously be the summoner system. All insect individuals under her command would have complete summon notarization. That would be completely different. At least, the army-building cycle could function well.
Furthermore, Reincarnation Paradise might even grant Jila Hunter status. After all, the higher the notarization rank of the insect individuals under her command, the stronger Jila became. What the Demon Insect Race lacked was never war capability, but causal rank—they were too suppressed by the Abyss system.
At that time, Su Xiao could definitely team up with Jila. There would certainly be "Battlefield Merits." With Jila's war capability, Su Xiao in the same team would definitely receive massive "Battlefield Merits." Of course, the insect race wouldn't be the main force against the Abyss—that was too fanciful. But as a regional defensive line, it was possible.
Entering the Gray Sacred Sanctuary, seeing that the Demon Blacksmith hadn't arrived yet, Su Xiao formed a teleportation array beneath his feet and went to the Insect Mother Nest.
A moment later, Jila followed Su Xiao, somewhat reluctantly, into the Gray Sacred Sanctuary. It wasn't that Jila was unwilling to follow Su Xiao; she just didn't like going out.
Before Su Xiao could notice, Jila had already hidden behind the hem of his long leather coat. Only like this did Jila feel safe leaving the base camp insect nest.
Just as he entered the sanctuary, Su Xiao saw the withered tree-like Old Tree Clan. Compared to last time, there were still many wildflowers on the steps before the Old Tree Clan. Surprisingly, a tender sprout had grown on the Old Tree Clan's forehead. This sprout looked like a small tree, with a blurry, immature face.
Seeming to sense Su Xiao approaching, the small tree sprout tremblingly opened its misty eyes. It seemed somewhat afraid, its body curling up slightly.
This was naturally not the Old Tree Clan's reincarnation. The Old Tree Clan was dead—that was beyond doubt. This was one of the Tree Clan's characteristics. The withered trunk left behind would provide necessary nutrients for the early growth of young individuals of the same clan. More precisely, this couldn't even be considered the Old Tree Clan's son; it was more like a great-grandson generation.
Su Xiao had a good relationship with the Old Tree Clan. When this ancient being first met Su Xiao, although senile, it had always shown the kindness of an elder and, whenever it remembered, answered Su Xiao's questions without reservation.
Su Xiao took out a bottle of Holy Spring Water and poured it on the small tree sprout. The previously frightened sprout immediately sensed how nourishing and precious the Holy Spring Water was, especially for plant races.
Entering the sanctuary, the Molten Giant was snoring loudly. This guy could sleep for decades or even centuries.
The Demon Blacksmith, whose eyes seemed to flow with magma and who had thick, curly goat horns, sat to the side, drinking Elemental Brew. This was Su Xiao's stock left for the Molten Giant.
Gentle prayer sounds came from not far away. The sanctuary's new member, Healer·Hifreya, was praying. The Molten Giant, covered in old wounds, could sleep so well because Hifreya was treating him. Ultimately, Su Xiao's treatment was potion-based. He excelled at removing erosion, etc. For treating old wounds, Hifreya, as a dedicated healer, was more suitable. Not to mention, she mastered the famous "Dark Sun Healing Art."
"What's the matter?"
The Demon Blacksmith spoke, looking Su Xiao up and down with a somewhat emotional gaze. It truly hadn't expected that the Law Destroyer it had met in the White Town would now be one of the strongest few in the Star Realm.
"Gem, inlay."
Su Xiao took out the "Star Realm Gem." Seeing this gem, the Demon Blacksmith stepped forward, took it, and observed it:
"This is... an Abyss Gem? No, there's residual Element aura. Element Gem? Not that either. Synthesized? They actually can be synthesized? I thought it was a rumor."
After observing the "Star Realm Gem" for a moment, the Demon Blacksmith had Su Xiao leave Dragon-Slashing Flash. The inlay work began. Baha stayed to wait for the inlay to complete.
Not only the inlay, but Dragon-Slashing Flash's scabbard [Seal Demon] also needed characteristic changes. The current [Seal Demon] was no longer suitable for Su Xiao's situation. He had only one requirement for [Seal Demon]: strengthen the "Dragon-Slashing Flash Durability Nurturing Characteristic."
After visiting the insect nest base camp and picking up many Elemental Brews along the way, Su Xiao returned to Reincarnation Paradise.
Su Xiao checked the time. It was almost the agreed time with Kaisa and Shenfu. He was quite confident about this decisive battle. However, being cautious, he took out [Bad Hearted Prophet].
[Bad Hearted Prophet (Abyss Curio): Can consume current fortune for divination. 50% probability of absolute accuracy, 50% probability of absolute error. The result depends on this item's "mood." A "happy" prophet will give accurate divination; a "bad mood" prophet will give wrong answers.]
This was a divination card. On it was a beautiful prophetess with light purple eyeshadow and a cold expression, dressed in noble attire. With Su Xiao's -100 charm attribute, this beautiful prophetess was extremely disgusted. The expression of never helping Su Xiao was written on her face.
Sitting before the coffee table, Su Xiao flipped the divination card. When he turned it over, the beautiful prophetess on the card had disappeared, replaced by the divination result "Death." This clearly represented that in the upcoming decisive battle at Arcane Eternal Star, he would face death.
Seeing this, Su Xiao took out the "Book of Original Sin."
Step one: Open to the "Book of Original Sin" eighth page.
Step two: Seal [Bad Hearted Prophet] within it.
Step three: Quietly wait for 3 seconds.
When the time came, Su Xiao opened the eighth page's seal. [Bad Hearted Prophet] was flipped out. This time, the beautiful prophetess's heart was no longer bad; instead, her gaze was fearful.
"I swear by the honor of the Shadow of Law Destruction. Divine for me once, and I'll let you leave."
Su Xiao finished speaking and flipped the divination card again. The result was that the image was still the beautiful prophetess, but her attire had changed. She wore a golden, magnificent outfit, holding a scepter in one hand and a book in the other.
Su Xiao pondered for a moment. Hmm, very good. He didn't understand the meaning. He had indeed little knowledge of divination. A moment later, Beini brought back a basic book on the divination system. Before long, Su Xiao found out what this attire of [Bad Hearted Prophet] meant.
Sage.
Arcane Eternal Star, Sage.
Mage Sage·Sefeiliya?
When he went to Arcane Eternal Star later, he would kill this spellcaster first.
As for letting [Bad Hearted Prophet] leave after one divination, the honor of the Shadow of Law Destruction had been well-known throughout the Second Era.
Su Xiao sealed [Bad Hearted Prophet] into the "Book of Original Sin" eighth page, closed the book, and waited while reading a sealcraft book. Half an hour later, he opened the "Book of Original Sin" and opened the eighth page's seal.
[Bad Hearted Prophet], emerging from the seal, looked at Su Xiao. Once again, it was the same extremely disgusted expression based on charm as when they first met. Very good. Under the impact of powerful Original Sin power, this originally dead object with some intelligence had been successfully "formatted."
Not to mention it, even the World Destroyer, after being imprisoned for a long time, had been forcibly "formatted."
Arriving at a quiet room, Su Xiao took out "Wisdom Codex." He pressed one hand on this half-meter-tall metal book. Due to continuous use of "Wisdom Codex" in a short time, the codex indeed began to devour his fate. Fortunately, he had "Fate Coin" in hand, so he wasn't afraid of fate being devoured. These devoured fates weren't Su Xiao's.
After devouring for over an hour, among the three faces on "Wisdom Codex," the metal face representing "Silent Sage" began to awaken.
Dark gold metal fluid surged out, forming a two-and-a-half-meter-tall, large-framed but thin black-robed old man. The lower half of his face had a bronze-colored old mask. It didn't seem worn but rather branded on. His right arm was a mass of tentacles. His left eye was blind, and his right eye had many pupils crowded together.
"Silent Sage" pressed one hand on "Wisdom Codex." The codex opened, and massive amounts of sealcraft knowledge surged out. This was "Silent Sage's" style. Only those with sufficient endurance for knowledge were qualified to master this knowledge. Otherwise, death was certain.
Early the next morning, Su Xiao drank a bottle of mental recovery potion. Learning sealcraft from "Wisdom Codex" was hard and somewhat risky, but the results were remarkable. Just as he was considering whether to undergo another baptism of seal knowledge today, Kaisa sent a message.
The content was that the [Shadow Merchant Guild Shares] Su Xiao had obtained from Crystal Ji had been converted into profits by Kaisa.
The profits were naturally very high. There was also a small problem: the other side had investigated and found that these [Shadow Merchant Guild Shares] came from Crystal Ji, and Crystal Ji's last destination was Doom Star, which Su Xiao had shattered.
With this connection, the matter Su Xiao and Kaisa had conspired on was now known to the Shadow Merchant Guild. Currently, the Shadow Merchant Guild was preparing to retaliate. Su Xiao didn't care about this. They were just exchanging moves. He had made his move; why shouldn't the other side respond? He had always been reasonable.
However, the next message made him realize this matter wasn't simple. The Shadow Merchant Guild had made a very confusing move. They had joined the Merchant Alliance, and the Merchant Alliance had issued a bounty on Su Xiao.
Under the circumstances where Su Xiao had already killed the Underworld God, issuing a bounty on him was extremely confusing. Not to mention whether anyone would accept this bounty, the problem was that besides the Lord of the Abyss and that one, was there really anyone who could complete this bounty? And those two wouldn't care about this so-called bounty.
In reality, this was an internal problem of the Merchant Alliance. The Merchant Alliance's original constituent forces were: Giant Bank, Underworld Bank, Alchemist Guild, Feather Clan, and most clans of the Demon Race. But after White Bull attacked Arcane Eternal Star, the Alchemist Guild, Feather Clan, and Demon Race quickly withdrew.
Because the Merchant Alliance's initial proposition was to survive this Abyss Calamity, just like the Goblin Merchant Guild had done in the final period of the ancient era.
However, under the representation of Giant Bank and Underworld Bank, the Merchant Alliance had boarded Arcane Eternal Star's ship. After all, with Arcane Eternal Star's power and that invincible being above the clouds, it seemed most likely to become the final victor after the Abyss Calamity erupted, rather than the Ten Thousand Races Realm.
But after White Bull completed his assassination, the Alchemist Guild, Feather Clan, and Demon Race all realized something was terribly wrong. Having been severely tricked by Giant Bank and Underworld Bank this time, before withdrawing from the Merchant Alliance, the Feather Clan used their insider in Giant Bank's upper echelons to issue a bounty targeting Law Destroyer·Kukulin·Bai Ye.
Thus, amid the Merchant Alliance's internal backstabbing, this confusing operation appeared.
The newly joined Shadow Merchant Guild was dumbfounded. Their idea was to negotiate with the Fraudster and Law Destroyer through the Merchant Alliance as a powerful intermediary to reclaim some benefits. But they were shocked to find that their new big brother, the Merchant Alliance, was this ruthless? Issuing a bounty directly?
Huh? Wasn't this the one who had defeated the Underworld God, shattered Doom Star, and was among the top few combat powers in the entire Star Realm? Issuing a bounty directly—wasn't that too hasty? The Shadow Merchant Guild was panicking. Suddenly, they felt that compared to their previous losses, this trouble seemed bigger. It seemed that doing shady business in the shadows, even with caution, would eventually bring retribution.
Now, both the Merchant Alliance and the Shadow Merchant Guild wanted to immediately withdraw the bounty. The problem was that the bounty had already been issued through the "Hunter Guild." This was also a typical example of someone who loved watching the world burn. They had indeed publicly announced the bounty. As for the Feather Clan, they had quickly joined the Ten Thousand Races Realm, with most of their clan's ancestral assets already transferred there. No one believed the Feather Clan hadn't prepared in advance.
The Feather Clan's attitude was very peculiar. Anyway, the entire Feather Clan wasn't a match for Su Xiao alone. So they chose to seek survival in death. If they couldn't win, they would bring all their assets and join.
