I Attained Invincibility In The Real World

Chapter 727: Chapter 394 Invincible and Fire Seed of Practice_2

He was just an unlucky little shrimp.

Not worth remembering at all.

Of course,

with very few exceptions.

Just like right now.

On Apocalypse Star.

In front of the Divine Tree.

Here,

is where the subordinates of Apocalypse Star receive their tasks.

On normal days, this is also the busiest place in the entire city.

But today,

it was eerily quiet.

All of this,

was due to the appearance of a group of people.

Step.

The sound of their footsteps was muffled and heavy.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Each step they took resonated like the tolling of bells and drums, causing the consciousness of the surrounding subordinates to tremble.

The leader was over three meters tall, with a physique comparable to a giant beast.

He wore Black Golden Armor and wielded a Blood Red Long Spear.

Below his helmet,

his commanding gaze occasionally swept over the surroundings.

Anyone who accidentally met his gaze would quickly lower their heads.

Following behind him,

were a disheveled-looking octopus head lazily floating in long robes,

and a human youth with sharp eyes and an icy demeanor, striding steadily forward.

There were others too.

Though they differed in appearance and posture,

without exception,

these people all carried the aura of strong persons.

“Sir.”

“Sir.”

Greetings were heard one after another.

But the burly leader turned a deaf ear, continuing to move forward with resolve.

Not until he came in front of the Divine Tree,

did he stop his footsteps.

“Wait here for me for a while,”

he instructed his teammates behind him.

After receiving affirmative responses, the burly man stepped into the interior of the Divine Tree.

His view dramatically cleared.

In the blink of an eye,

the spacious task hall appeared before the burly man.

“Welcome, Heavenly Beings’ King,”

“Ash Annihilation Commander has been waiting for a long time.”

By the wall,

a human face slowly protruded, expressionlessly welcoming the Heavenly Beings’ King.

“I know,”

the Heavenly Beings’ King nodded slightly, taking steps toward the deeper part of the hall.

Along the way,

the subordinates picking up tasks upon seeing him behaved identically to those outside, all cautious and mindful.

As for this,

the Heavenly Beings’ King had grown accustomed to it.

Now,

it had been half a year since he last heard any news about Chen Sheng.

On his teammates’ advice,

the Heavenly Beings’ King stopped fretting over the existence of Chen Sheng daily and instead focused on improving himself.

In half a year’s time,

he had successfully recruited seven teammates with formidable strength, filling the void in his team, and completed many of Apocalypse Star System’s tasks that had been stagnant for years.

Their team’s fierce and domineering style, as well as their terrifying strength, had gradually spread their reputation across the regions governed by Apocalypse Star.

As a result,

the status of the Heavenly Beings’ King on Apocalypse Star had climbed steadily.

Now, he was the strongest under Ash Annihilation across the entire Apocalypse Star.

Not only were many throughout the universe fearful of them,

even subordinates from the same camp were terrified in their presence.

And the Heavenly Beings’ King was here today, summoned by Ash Annihilation.

Delving further,

he traversed the pitch-black passages,

and once again came before Ash Annihilation.

“I’ve seen the Commander,”

he kneeled on one knee.

“Not bad,”

“in just half a year, you have leaped to become a Galaxy Level Powerhouse.”

“Such a rate of progression, even among the countless subordinates I have seen, is rare.”

The blackened walls bled lava slowly, forming Ash Annihilation’s face.

He looked down at the Heavenly Beings’ King below him, his eyes betraying a hint of admiration.

“Thank you for the cultivation, Commander,”

“it’s something I dare not forget,” he responded earnestly.

The Heavenly Beings’ King knew very well.

Aside from his efforts from constantly taking on missions,

Ash Annihilation had also played a significant role in his rapid progression.

The words spoken were indeed from his heart.

“We all serve that Supreme Existence, I naturally cultivate those with talent, there’s no need to say more,” Ash Annihilation replied briefly,

and quickly changed the subject.

“I summoned you here today because I have some good news for you.”

Hmm?

Upon hearing this,

the Heavenly Beings’ King was slightly puzzled.

He was about to inquire when,

the next second,

he felt a stream of information surge into his mind.

“This is…..”

Beneath his helmet,

the crimson eyes widened ever so slightly, flickering with disbelieving light.

“Chen Sheng… is dead?”

The information that now filled the Heavenly Beings’ King’s mind concerned events from three months prior.

“Yes,”

Ash Annihilation confirmed.

“Frost King, I’ve crossed paths with him,”

“Quite a formidable strength,” he commented.

“Even I couldn’t easily best him in a short period,”

“Just to be safe, I waited three months before informing you of this news, fearing any unexpected developments might occur.”

“But now three months have passed, and the Frost King’s aura has not dissipated.”

“It is sufficient proof that Chen Sheng likely had his Fire Seed of Practice taken by him, and lost his life.”

“You can now let go of your obsession,” Ash Annihilation concluded.

As the voice faded,

the cave fell into silence.

The Heavenly Beings’ King remained kneeling in place, looking somewhat distracted.

Even though the facts were right before his eyes,

and even though… this was the news he had once longed to see,

to his surprise, a sense of regret inexplicably rose in the Heavenly Beings’ King’s heart.

It wasn’t a regret for Chen Sheng’s life.

It was a regret that his efforts during this time seemed to have no place to be applied,

a regret that although Chen Sheng’s life had ended, it was not by his own hands.

After a brief moment of silence,

the Heavenly Beings’ King eventually let out a slow breath.

“What a waste…”

Such talent, yet he was utterly ignorant of the need to keep a low profile,

so much so that he casually threw away his life.

Truly unworthy of being my opponent.

At this moment,

the Heavenly Beings’ King wished nothing more than for Chen Sheng to resurrect and reappear before him, so that he could torment him thoroughly.

Alas,

that was just wishful thinking.
