Back at the foot of the Sacrifice Step Pyramid--

"Advance!!"

*SLAAASH*

"ARRRGHH!!"

Robin stood to the side watching five thousand prisoners being forced up the pyramid, and with every passing second, he clicked his fingers a little more.

The bottom step of the pyramid was very large, filled with roundabouts lined next to each other as Aro ordered the prisoners to be set on those circles, in fact, the bottom step of the pyramid alone could easily hold many times that number but Aro said that five thousand Saints would be good enough for someone who just wants that last step into the Martial Emperor Realm.

"All set," Aro shouted and then looked towards the top of the pyramid, "I'll begin, are you ready?"

"Ready!" At the top of the pyramid sat a half-naked human, he loudly declared his readiness but still looked nervous.

Aro nodded upon hearing the reply. He went towards the foot of the mountain and took out an object that looked like a key. He then pointed to a number of tribal leaders who were also present, so they came forward and took out the keys they had in their possession until the total number reached ten. "Now!" *Oooommnnnn*

The ten keys were pulled into their designated places around the Sacrifice Stepped Pyramid and immediately the pyramid began to gleam and shake.

"What's happening... What's happening?!" The prisoners of the Great Serpent Empire began to look around in panic

"Arrrgggggg!!!"

"What happened to-- AAHHH!!!"

The circles below the war prisoners emitted columns of light that penetrated their skin, as ten thousand knives those rays began to cut them from the inside!

"It's happening... It's happening..." Robin took a step forward and activated his golden eyes to the maximum.

As the rays entered the prisoners' bodies, Robin noticed that there was a destructive tornado hitting their energy centers and shattering them in a slow pace. Those shattered energy pieces descended with the bloodstream to the bottom of their feet and then to the base of the pyramid.

Robin had previously felt the pain, panic, and weakness caused by mere cracks in his solid energy foundation, so he could only imagine what was happening now to those captives as they were being destroyed while they were alive and conscious of what was happening. "Mmm!!" At the same moment, the half-naked officer at the top of the pyramid began to make intense humming sounds that caught Robin's attention.

The officer was currently covered by a pillar of light as well, but that pillar was radiating a warm, gentle energy that wasn't as destructive, and he could see that… the massive foundation number 41 was starting to take shape!

Five minutes ago-- Planet Nihari-- Northern Border Mountain

"Celebus, get out of here you coward!!" With his deterrent blue fire shield, Hulak advanced amidst dozens of martial emperors without anyone trying to stand in his way

*Boom*

Before he reached the location of the Second Heaven's Chosen Library, the ground beneath his feet collapsed and he was dragged down.

"Now!!"

*Baam* *Baam* *Baam* *Baam*

Nearly 140 martial emperors attacked the hole with purple clouds without hesitation.

The injuries that filled their bodies and the burns that still penetrated their bones made them hate Hulak and his mount to the core, some of them even swore that they were ready to die as long as Hulak was dragged with them!

*"Rrrrrrr!!"* Crixus's mighty roar shook the sky and then he quickly returned to the scene of events and with a *Fuuuu* a waterfall of blue flames covered that part of the mountain.

"Stop your insolence you damn reptile!!"Some of the martial emperors continued to chase the wyverns, while the rest quickly fled, "Argh, back!!"

"Where do you think are you going?!" Hulak came out of the pit even more furious

The pit itself had expanded dozens of times due to contact with the minor corrosion law, but he came out as if he had been in a hot bath, he didn't seem any different, only the blue flame burning on his armor had slightly lessened than before, "You dare to mess with me with these trivialities? I will kill ten of you today!!"

*Bzzzzttt*

At this moment, an instant space portal opened in front of the entrance of the second chosen one of the heavens, and then a single person came out of it.

*Step* *Step*

That person was a little over two meters tall and had pale and cracked skin, a forked tongue, and sharp eyes, there was no doubt about that person's ethnicity.

"His Highness the Third Prince?!" At this moment, one of Marshal Celebus' advisors shouted, "...It really is His Highness the Third Prince, have the Imperial Guards joined the war?!"

After that advisor's shout, everyone looked towards the new present, his aura suggested that he was close to breaking through to Level 48 but not there yet, and his armor that consisted of half a complete set confirmed his identity, he was definitely one of the famous Imperial Guards, and of the stronger ones at that!

This made them excited and afraid at the same time… excited that their damn battle would finally end, and they were afraid of dealing with a member of the Imperial Guard, those people were famous for being completely unreasonable!

"Hmm? A new snake has come to purify itself? Come and see what your brothers have tasted." Hulak laughed when he saw the newcomer and began to advance towards him.

So what if the newcomer seems stronger than the rest? A stronger ant is still an ant, he will destroy his face with a punch all the same. He, Hulak, is the only strong one!

"The King of the Northern Region, known to the locals as Ancestor Hulak, I have brought you two messages from Planetary Emperor Pythor." The young man who came out of the space portal did not look flustered at all.

"Keep them safe with you, I will put them in your ass when I am done with you." Hulak continued on his way toward that person, or more specifically towards the entrance of the Second Heaven's Chosen Library.

The young man continued anyway, "The Planetary Emperor, His Majesty Paythor, says that he recognizes your strength and that he would have loved to have a one-on-one fight with you, but unfortunately, you are still a layman without any authority and killing you himself wouldn't affect the big picture, End of the first letter."

"Haha, he wants to make an example of me so he sends you? Fine, come and make an example of me." Hulak began to quicken his steps, his fist clenching, ready to blow that bastard's head off with a single blow.

For some reason the 140+ martial emperors had retreated when they saw that guy, when he kills him he will have enough time to enter the library and destroy Celebus' body!

"I am only a messenger, and what will make an example of you is the next letter." Emotionlessly, the young man took out a small black box and held it with both hands, "By the order of the Supreme Lord, then by the order of His Majesty Pythor, you were chosen to be an example… Die."
