The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

The Scarlet King was not only surprised by the young woman's immense beauty but also shocked to find out that the Atrox Immortus Race looked like that at their most basic and primitive state. While many Atroxs were aesthetically appealing, nearly all of them lacked those delicate characteristics, replaced by stern and warrior-like features.

While the beauty made Astrid happy, that was not the reason she went through this process. She took a deep breath and retrieved a wave crystal from her space ring, focusing on it. Hope and fear appeared in her eyes as she sent the Life Wave from the wave crystal into her Sacred Organs.

William stared at his daughter, allowing a sense of hope to invade him. If this did not work, nothing could cure Astrid's congenital disability.

Seconds went by, and a sense of dread and pressure assaulted everybody, but then Astrid's body trembled, and a tiny thread of sky-blue energy emerged from her body!

That was Essence Wave!

It was small and faded immediately, but the fact that she managed to generate it meant her Evolution Core worked, and she could embark on the Essence Evolution Path of Power.

Astrid could not help but shed tears as she felt the Evolution Core inside her body develop Essence Waves and use the power to generate meridians across her body, the first step in what would be a long and arduous cultivation journey.

William could not contain the waves of emotions that assailed his heart either, as he would not have to see his daughter age and fade after a mere hundred years. He then turned to the Scarlet King and performed a deep bow.

"I will never forget this."

Regardless of the coldness and aloof attitude of the man, he had healed his daughter, and William could not be happier.

"I will remember this grace for my entire life."

Astrid also regained her composure and stood up, bowing toward the Scarlet King, tears of joy still falling from her eyes.@@novelbin@@

The Scarlet King's heart was full of thrill and happiness at seeing the young Atrox woman finally break free of her shackles, but he couldn't break his facade. Not showing any emotion, he merely nodded.

"It was a deal, and I was just fulfilling my part. Take your daughter back to Evernight. Once you return, we will march together to the Blood Path's secret laboratory. We should arrive before Silent World's incursion begins."

William nodded and covered Astrid with his Ego Wave before both flashed back to Evernight. The man moved more than one hundred times faster than the speed of sound, so he was able to return in less than an hour.

"I am ready."

The Scarlet King's eyes narrowed as he felt the complete change in the aura of the Atrox Duke. During Astrid's genetic rewrite, there was doubt and uncertainty in William's eyes, but now he could only see killing intent and fighting will.

'A true warrior.'

That was the only description that the Scarlet King could give to the Atrox Duke. Everything was ready, and they should be going, but he looked at William for a moment before waving his hand and making the Refinement Cauldron appear.

"There is an object I want to obtain from one of the Divine Ascension Masters. If you help me get it, I am willing to perform a 15 Revolution Refinement on your flesh and blood right now."

William's eyes narrowed as he heard that request. The original mission was to distract the Divine Ascension Masters from Silent World and Blood Path. If he wanted to help the Scarlet King steal something, William would be forced to make the enemy put his entire attention on him, which would be extremely dangerous.

"What is it that you seek to obtain?"

The Scarlet King did not say a word but pointed his index finger to a specific part of his body, and William immediately understood what this one was after.

Although going down that path was extremely dangerous, William was aware of the miraculous effect of Revolution Refinement after reading the golden book. It did not take long for determination to appear in his eyes, and he nodded.

A smile full of greed appeared on the Scarlet King's face as he heard those words, and he opened the lid of the Refinement Cauldron, allowing William to get in before placing a 15 Revolution Flame.

Although he had performed a 16 Revolution Refinement on Dark Mask and Death Tide, his proficiency had not reached 100%, and unlike with the duo, he could not afford to lose the Atrox Duke before the incursion. Explore more adventures at My Virtual Library Empire

"Make sure to revolve the energy around your body as fast as possible to allow the assimilation to proceed without a problem."

William heard those words in his mind, and the next second, the cauldron lid closed, and the 15 Revolution Flame emerged from the sphere, flooding his body both inside and out. A second later, the Atrox Duke's eyes widened as he felt waves of world energy flooding his body with overwhelming power.

Without hesitation, William made his Ego Wave burst, using all the power of his silver force field to mobilize the energy across his body.

The Scarlet King relaxed as he felt how easy it was to mobilize the energy around William after this one helped the process using his own Ego Wave, which had already reached the Third Realm of the Ego Eternal Path of Power.

In just two hours, the world's energy stopped flooding into the cauldron, and William emerged from it the next second. His eyes could not hide his shock and awe as the state of his bones and flesh had improved.

William was an extremely talented Astral Cultivator and built his foundation step by step with extreme focus and hard work. That allowed the power behind the Flesh Calamity and Bone Calamity to reach an overwhelming level.

The memories of those tribulations and the effect they had on his flesh and bones were still clear in the Atrox's mind.

For the last couple of years, William had just been improving his soul force, as he was under the pretense that his flesh and bones had already been tempered to the utmost limit of the Apotheosis Rank. However, the effect of the Saint Revolution Refinement pushed his bones and flesh to an even higher stage!
