It was an astounding amount of time when compared to the average.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, this time came with consequences.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It took them several moments to reorient themselves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, they also saw the Severed World's Universal Law.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damien could only handle it because he was familiar with the concept. When the girls were shown the same sight, their spiritual worlds were shaken terrifically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It made sense why people were crippled. Even they were almost crippled in the first few seconds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pressure of the grand truth influenced their minds almost to the point of breaking them, but they'd managed to survive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their gains were matched by an equal amount of disorientation that made them unable to distinguish whether reality was truly real or not.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A light wind blew past their faces, and a calming flow of mana surrounded them, warming their bodies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their eyes opened slowly as their minds cleared, and Damien's figure was the first thing they saw.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He smiled warmly and looked between them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How was it?\" He asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girls smiled back happily and took his help to pull themselves out of the river.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It was great. That woman really has a habit of downplaying these areas,\" Ruyue said first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I didn't expect to make so much progress on a path I just discovered. This place is really spectacular,\" Rose added.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elena nodded as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damien's gains couldn't be used as a basis for what one could do in the Lunar River.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was his fault for attempting to grasp the most extreme possible concept he could.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For these three women who focused on what they were best at and tried diligently to move themselves towards Divinity, the results were marvelous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ruyue and Elena were already at a point where they nearly embodied their elements, but this effect was even more pronounced now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Rose…well, Rose's achievement was more subtle, but the connotations were far greater than anyone could imagine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Zara is still in my shadow and Isla went back into Elena's companion space, so the only one left is…'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her body silently arrived at the riverside as Damien had the thought, and she calmly stepped out, already dry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is the end of our cooperation,\" Sia said, not wasting a single second.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damien smiled wryly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don't know why you'd hire us if you're so happy to get away from us, but it is what it is,\" he responded with a shrug.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sia glanced at him expressionlessly before shaking her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It was a pleasant experience. I would not have made such progress with such efficiency if not for your aid.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah, yeah. Your flattery skill is just as interesting as your laws. I'm almost curious about who you are outside of this place.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"After taking so much from me, you're still curious?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please watch your phrasing. I'm a married man, you know?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, I think it's quite obvious.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damien grinned slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the most interaction they'd had since they met, so he was a bit surprised by her willingness to talk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well, I guess we both got what we wanted, so I'll call this a successful cooperation as well,\" he said, reaching his hand out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sia glanced at it and frowned slightly, turning away without shaking it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There are only 3 opponents remaining, but each of them has extreme strength. Do not disappoint me and die in your journey.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With those words, she vanished entirely, as if she never existed in the first place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She came and went like a passing wind, and her presence held the same fragility, yet, the vagueness of her existence only made her more interesting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a brief interaction that was almost nonexistent in the hearts of those who experienced it, but for some reason, it managed to find a small place for itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like that strange woman named Sia.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damien turned to the girls and smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I guess she actually did care about us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Us? Or you?\" Elena asked suspiciously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Um…us, probably?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Pfft…!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rose suppressed a giggle and rolled her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's never us and you know it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damien shook his head in defeat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At least in this situation, he could be sure that wasn't the case.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Plus, he was a loyal man!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I'm suddenly remembering Rose's claim from all those years ago that I could have eight wives…'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He shuddered at the thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'…being young was nice. Now that I've experienced it, I'd definitely die if I had eight women.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group continued bantering, with Damien doing his best to divert the topic, as they started their journey up the mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Sia said, there were three beasts remaining.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damien already went and checked each one of them, assessing the best course of action.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And truthfully…there wasn't one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Thunder Demon Crow, the Imperious Flame Eagle, and the Pegasus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every single one of them had the strength of a 4th class being, and while two of them were defined by their elements, unlike the lesser beasts of the realm, they'd managed to understand the importance of these traits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'The Severed World's Universal Law edges closer to completeness from this point forth. It's almost as if…'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damien's eyes narrowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'…I'm looking forward to our meeting.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Refocusing on the current situation, he told the girls what he knew about their coming opponents so they could choose which one to fight first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regardless, they'd have to pass through the territory of one of these beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next 200 kilometers of the mountain's height was divided horizontally rather than vertically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three kings lived on three different sides of the peak, occupying equal space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'The problem is that Sia said we still have 3 to face. It won't be as easy as it looks.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Pegasus was not an option from the start.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its power was too mysterious, and since it came down to start the Ascension Ceremony, its relationship with the Cloud Emperor couldn't be shallow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the other two, the choices were flames and lightning, two of the most popular elements in the universe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If we have to pick between the two, the answer is obviously flames.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At least Ruyue had an elemental advantage against the eagle. Against the raven, their group would only find pain!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But can we even do it? That's a 4th class being. Even if we were the best geniuses in the universe, taking down a 4th class at 2nd class would be impossible,\" Rose said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was an undeniable truth that they were in over their heads…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…or was it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damien grinned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't worry about it. We have to pass through its territory to reach the peak, but who said we had to fight it?\" He said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girls made expressions of confusion, making his grin widen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haha, let's just say that we have a lot more options than we used to.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>5 minutes was a long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While the girls stayed in the Lunar River, a genuinely insane plan came to Damien's mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'I really don't try to make enemies, but…'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…once again, he was going to make the Severed World very, very angry.\u003C\u002Fp>",1217,"2026-05-29T05:01:23.098Z","2026-06-01T04:29:13.679Z",1,"novelbin.me","fd2c5c016892501861dda061b50a77a5ca680b4dc9481f990a1c2b522c06a0c0","void-evolution-system-chapter-1103","void-evolution-system-chapter-1101",1899,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fvoid-evolution-system-cover.jpg"]
