In the ancient city of the exotic land.

Leylin sat inside an ancient castle, and frequently looked up at the sky where the two galaxies intertwined, waiting for the changes of the galaxies above his head.

In this ancient city, small teams composed of 4-5 warriors were many but the sole person who seemed to be on his own was Leylin, but for the time being, no fight had occurred yet.

Teams that had entered this place were apparently not ordinary. They certainly went through a lot of danger along the way to get there. As they didn't see any changes of this place yet, they all meditated to reinforce their strengths, and maintain their supreme state, waiting for the point in time when changes happened.

Leylin wasn't disturbed by anyone's arrival, he sat alone without bothering with anyone and continued his arduous cultivation in the stone chamber and perceiving the mysterious star power at the same time.

Today, Leylin woke up again from the martial conception.

"The Galaxy has had some changes!" Raising his head toward someone's yell, Leylin slightly frowned, stopped perceiving martial conception, and stood up.

Leylin's face was solemn as he felt the disturbance from the Four Symbols mountain range outside.

Four Symbols seem to have changed. A small earthquake quietly rumbled from the surrounding mountains of the ancient city. In that earthquake, beast's roars could be heard from those four mountains.

"Such a ruthless plan. " Leylin laughed lightly as he guessed from the commotion that there should be around a hundred beasts with different levels.

If those beasts jump into the ancient city, it will not be easy for us to deal with. The lowest level beasts seen in this foggy place were at the sixth level.

Even if it were the sixth level, hundreds of them were already terrifying. If there were many seventh level beasts among them, that force would be very tough to handle.

And unfortunately for the warriors at least one-third of them are at the seventh level.

Leylin wasn't least worried about being caught in such a commotion, to him beast at such a level of meat on a chopping board.

"Changes in the galaxy should come very soon. With many beasts showing up, this place certainly will not be peaceful much longer. If I am not wrong there would definitely be an elimination of excess and less capable warriors soon."

"In a world where strength is supreme, weakness is a crime and these trials ahead would be their punishment."

Leylin slowly went out of the chamber, heading outside.

Outside the ancient city, it seemed that the Four Symbols mountains were lurching continually while the dull roars came up from a distance. In those mountains' shakes, some horrible changes seemed to be quietly born.

Looking out towards the surrounding Four Symbols mountain range. One could clearly see the four mountains exploding and seeming to have some terrible changes.

Waves of beasts' roars came up from the four mountains. It seemed that countless dormant beasts in the Four Symbols mountain range were about to rush into the ancient city and crush all warriors into powder.

As the beasts roared, lightning gradually flashed from the Azure Dragon mount in the east and then slowly flew over. From the White Tiger mount in the west, violent tornados raged and churned up, slaughtering and destroying anything in its path. The tornados pulled huge lava rocks up to the sky. Each block of lava rock contained horrendous power.

From the Vermillion Bird Mount in the south, clusters of fires started to rage, dyeing the entire sky dark red as if the sky were also being burned by scorching fires.

The Black Turtle Mount in the north was flooded with ice and extremely falling thick snowflakes. In just one breath, the Black Turtle Mount was covered with dense white snow.

Changes continuously happened in the four mountains of the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, and Black Turtle probably affecting ancient formations. Lightning, tornados, flames, and snow continued spreading toward the ancient city, getting closer.

The four mountains constantly changed, which made the hiding beasts suddenly become crazy.

"Four auspicious beast formations? it seems the level of warriors capable of understanding and using formation is not too bad. Although this power is nothing compared to the Four Auspicious Beast Formation that I could conjure back in my Radiant Moon Magus days when I ransacked Lava World but it's still pretty good. Definitely praiseworthy, in terms of quality and execution very few Rank 4 Magus Formation Grandmaster can compete against this creation."

In those ear-piercing roars, hundreds of sixth or seventh level beasts scattered out from the mountains. Their eyes were filled with brutality while they rushed toward the ancient city in a craze.

Giant three-headed alligators, silver demon wolves, and single-horned dragon pythons, those who were rarely seen, now showed up one by one. Groups of beasts stormed out like a surging tide, quickly invading the ancient city.

Seeing the changes of the Four Symbols mountain range, many warriors inside the ancient city's stone fortresses were quite horrified and instantly went out of the castles wearing solemn faces as they watched the beasts attacking aggressively. They all stayed on alert.

Leylin watched the influx of the beasts as well as the warriors preparing themselves with serious faces while taking out secret treasures from their Storage rings.

Other groups of warriors were still hiding inside the castles, standing firmly at the entrance, watching the beasts from the ground and the sky rushing over. Everyone was wearing heavy faces.

In such an environment Leylin sticks out like a sore thumb, he was too carefree and nonchalant as if he's just an observer or an audience. But no one had any time to care about him, they had more pressing issues.

These beasts seemed to know the ancient city's situation. As soon as they rushed into the ancient city, they immediately spread out to all the places the warriors could have been hiding in the castle.

The stone castles had many windows but simply couldn't stop the beasts that could fly. Those flying beasts used their brutal force to tear down the fence of windows and then drilled into the castle to search for warriors. Beasts had an extreme hostility toward the invasion of human warriors. Their mission seemed to be to kill all human warriors.

Ten sixth-level Green Armored Scale Falcons and three seventh-level Single-horned Pythons drilled through the windows toward the stone castle Leylin was in. The Green Armored Scale Falcons had the ability to fly with a pointy beak, thick skin, and sharp claws like swords that emitted dense, icy lights.

This Green Armored Scale Falcon had many scales on its body. Those scales couldn't be damaged by the majority of hacking weapons, and thus, it was challenging to cope with.

The seventh level Single-horned Dragon Python was even more terrible. The horn of a Single-horned Dragon Python was all-conquering, which could be compared to divine weapons which had been forged and refined hundreds of times. The Dragon Python's saliva was highly toxic and could utilize the power of frost. Once the Single-horned Dragon Python got close to a person, its saliva and the power of frost would be spurted out together. Even the defensive halos released by Sky Realm warriors couldn't stop that highly toxic saliva which could dissolve many kinds of defenses.The power of frost could greatly weaken the defensive halos.

When the defensive halos disappeared after a blink, a Single-horned Dragon Python would dash over, tearing apart and destroying the warriors.

Unless warriors had gone through a special body refining cultivation, Single-horned Dragon Pythons would strike them and pierce through their bodies.

Ten Green Armored Scale Falcons and three Single-horn Dragon Pythons spread out and quickly rushed toward Leylin. It only took them a short while to find his whereabouts. They immediately aggregated and rushed toward them.

"Poor beasts." Leylin didn't even flinch being besieged by so many beasts rather he crossed his arms.

Three silhouettes suddenly flashed up in another stone castle which was a few hundred meters away on the left. After those three people had gone outside, they worriedly looked around and immediately dashed in Leylin direction.

The three of them were two males and one female. The two men were seventy-year-old warriors and dressed in flower-blouses. Their faces now looked odd as the beasts were chasing them. They looked miserable.

The girl was in the front of the two men. She was long-limbed, wearing a light yellow skirt with white teeth and shining eyes. She was incredibly beautiful.

These three people seemed to have realized that the beasts that had jumped into their stone castle were too strong and had known that if they stayed, they would have been killed. Hence, they ran out of the stone castle to find someone that they could join forces to deal with these beasts.

Behind the three of them, ten beasts rushed out of the stone castle, showing fangs and claws, letting out crazy roars and staring at them.

"Grandpa, hurry up!" The girl anxiously called out. Her body suddenly changed and separated into five phantoms, escaping in four directions.

Her true body hovered and swayed in the air. A vigorous flow of aura burst out from her body and then suddenly rushed toward Leylin.

Leylin had his back turned to the girl, consistently releasing his power into the Gravitational Field.

Although Leylin felt her movement but sensing her Earth Realm Cultivation he didn't even turn his face but hearing the girl's shout, he suddenly showed a slightly puzzled look.

After completing the Gravitational Field, Leylin turned around and threw a quick glance at that girl, and his face changed slightly.

"Oh!"

The girl exclaimed; her eyes flashed up with strange lights. She looked at Leylin, seemed to remember someone, and then pointed to him and unsurely said, "You, you are…?"

"Neelam, it's been a long time since I've seen you," Leylin revealed an interested smile. "How did you get here?"

"You are Berkan? Are you really Berkan Lenoir?" Neelam was overjoyed with an expression of disbelief. "Didn't you already return to the Endless Sea? Why did you come back here?"

The two elderly men behind Neelam were grandfather Ian Ashdown of the Ashdown family of Merchant Union and that misty mountain range Ben Parks.

When seeing Neelam surprisingly shout, the two men also looked at Leylin and showed a very surprised expression.

"You guys seem worse for wear, come here. " Leylin said.

Leylin slightly triggered his Profound Qi. The Gravitational Field, which had been amassed for a long time, suddenly flew toward them.

The five huge three-headed alligators, which were closely chasing Ian and Ben, were suddenly sucked inside that crazily spinning Gravitational Field. The Field created by the combination of numerous types of energies and with Leylin's vigorous Profound Qi was already exceedingly strong beforehand, but ever since Leylin has came to Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist he realized that after one instance of using this martial skill, that Gravitational Field has an odd resonance with the magnetic field here and seen to enhance the skills deadliness multifold.

As soon as the three-headed alligators were pulled into the Gravitational Field, they were soon cut up and crushed into powder.

With the current power of Gravitational Field, not even the extremely sturdy and resilient body of rank seven demon beast cannot resist being crushed into smithereens.

"Demon Crystals!"

Ben and Ian were both surprised and cheerfully shouted together. They looked at the Demon Crystals, revealing a look of desire.

These three people should have gone through unwanted situations in the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist. When the five Demon Crystals appeared, the two obviously couldn't keep calm and even stopped, wanting to go into the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist to take the Demon Crystals.

"Come here first!" Leylin said lightly but his low voice sounded in their consciousness startling them. They immediately reacted and rushed over.

"Funny seeing you here, how and why did you come here?" Leylin said.

"There's a nautical chart engraved in Little Neelam's bloodline. We based our directions on that to get here all the way from the Merchant Union. On the way here, we've lost a lot of people. After entering this place, there's only three of us left." Ian's face was sad.

"Berkan, how come you are here? Oh, your cultivation base is now in the Sky Realm. The same as mine?" Neelam's master Ben Parks suddenly screamed out while his eyes glimmered with a trace of incredibility.

Ian and Neelam were also startled.

As their group came near Leylin with only a glance, Ben could immediately realize Leylin cultivation base. His face was shocked while he subconsciously cried out in fear.

"I have been lucky." Leylin smiled as he simultaneously controlled the Gravitational Fields, constantly moving them to prevent those beasts from having a chance to get closer.

"Speaking of lucky now that we have met, I should return something I took." Leylin eyes gazing at the three of them suddenly rested on Neelam as he spoke.

He then took out the Dragon Turtle Armor and gave it to Neelam. This originally belonged to her and bestowed her with a unique bloodline, Leylin hasn't had much time to study it extensively but after only a few rounds of experimentation he understood that this shell held no bloodline after the transfer.

The Dragon Turtle Armor is also most suitable to be used by the possessor of that particular bloodline. Leylin is sure that it's an extraordinarily amazing item with supreme defensive skills, but since he can't use it anyway Leylin returned it to her.

"I found a certain way to increase the defensive skill of the armor significantly but because of not having the bloodline I couldn't use it. I'll tell you how to use it, wear it soon and protect yourself."

"But this is so ugly."

"Little girl don't be naughty, Listen to Berkan. Protect yourself." Ben whispered.

Neelam blinked, nodded obediently. Her pretty eyes brightened, looking at Leylin.

Beasts from every direction were wandering around. Leylin was standing in front of the stone fortress with a cold face and resolute eyes. He looked like a ten-thousand-year old rock which seemed unwavering while emitting a mighty temperament that only a man could possess.

At this moment, Leylin undoubtedly carried a mesmerizing male charm.

After not seeing him for ages, in her most dangerous time, she unexpectedly ran into him who had gone missing for a long while. Neelam's heart was involuntarily agitated a little bit. She subconsciously wondered if this was God's predestined would or not.

Leylin had been gone for a few years. Ian used to make arrangements for her to meet young men from different powerful forces of the Fire Empire and the God-blessed Empire. However, it was unknown why she had always been dissatisfied with those men and had secretly compared them with Leylin. The more she had compared, the more she felt that those people were not as good as him.

Neelam assumed that she would hardly see him again. However, she now suddenly met him in the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist. This unexpected encounter made her both happy and scared at the same time. Watching Leylin's fearless manners when facing numerous beasts, the nervous tension she had been suffering from all along seemed to relax all of a sudden.

Leylin side glanced at her and shook his head. Leylin knew that great things were destined to be her, Leylin has been able to identify a type of map buried deep inside the Dragon turtle armor but he knew that this opportunity can only be redeemed by Neelam. Leylin can feel that she is sure to reach greater heights in the future.
