Chapter 359: Grade 8 Great Pinnacle Golden Immortal Realm
....
Clap.
After closing the phone and putting it back into his robe pocket, Azmodeus had some rather devilish thoughts swirl around inside his head. If before, his status was not great enough to accomplish something like this, then with his halfway SS-Rank status, the limit to his authority practically had the sky as the limit!
He had billions of Rank 2 Immortal Crystals to his name, and with such a sum, just about anybody in the Everveil Kingdom would do whatever he told them to do. Whether that be information, the market, killing people, or requesting items like what he had just done. For the new him, all of this was as easy as snapping his fingers-
Snap!
With a finger snap, a cloaked man arrived in Azmodeus's personal cultivation room, dropped off a large silver book, and then left the room without a trace.
Rising off the ground and picking up the huge book, Azmodeus quickly returned to his cultivation mat and read through its pages, planning something big inside his mind.
—----------
Ten days later, on the day that the Dragon Slayer, Yun Jin, arrived in the Central District of the Everveil Kingdom.
"Move out of the way!! A Dragon Slayer has arrived in the Capital!!!"
Shouting from the sidelines, bystanders warned other commoners of the mighty-looking horse and carriage that were making their way through the polished streets of the Central District.
Riding through the place without doing anything special, just the emblem and flag adorned on the side of the horse-drawn carriage were enough to cause everyone to look that way in awe. Moving aside without any qualms, the luckiest among them were even able to catch a glimpse of the vallant appearance of a Dragon Slayer.
And not just any Dragon Slayer, but Yun Jin!
He was someone known for saving billions of Immortals from savage Immortal Dragon attacks! Even though some of the dragons were the size of multiple cities, he cut them down all the same!
Just his mere presence in the Everveil Capital was enough to have the King come out to personally greet him. Along with hundreds of other high officials, they all gathered in front of the horse-drawn carriage and led Yun Jin toward the Royal Castle.
Even though the King was still in grief, having a personage like this in their kingdom was enough to have him set aside his anger and put the kingdom first.
After a few hours of trading a bunch of nonsense with one another, Yun Jin and the King parted ways. Of course, the King asked about his reason for visiting their humble kingdom, and Yun Jin responded with, "Meeting a new SS-rank Immortal Hunter that sprouted up in your Nation."
King Everveil was beyond astonished by this information! Although he knew of multiple S-Rank Immortal Hunters who were close to the All-Encompassing Immortal Realm, he didn't even put them in his eyes. After all, he had hundreds of elite All-Encompassing Realm Immortal Soldiers, and every single one of them was stronger than an S-Rank Immortal Hunter.
As for SS-Rank Immortal Hunters… Well, the higher-ups of the Immortal Hunters Association would always snatch up a talent like that whenever they appeared.
Usually, King Everveil would be quite aware of which of his Immortal Hunters were about to make the breakthrough into the All-Encompassing Immortal Realm. But it seemed as if one of them managed to slip past his watchful gaze.
This was quite perplexing for King Everveil, warranting him to contact a few people and figure out the identity of this secret SS-Rank Immortal Hunter.
A small part of him speculated the possibility of this man somehow being connected to the recent death of his eldest daughter. But that was more of a venting method than anything, with no actual evidence to support this baseless belief.
The minutes ticked by, and Yun Jin had just entered the Immortal Hunters Branch Building. After greeting the head of this branch office, he asked for the location of the Immortal Hunter 'Azmodeus'.
The Branch Head had never heard of such a hunter, much less one who was able to catch the eye of a genuine Dragon Slayer. But, in the end, he was inferior in status to Yun Jin; therefore, he asked around and found the room number of this 'Azmodeus'.
After giving the room number to Yun Jin, they went their separate ways. And just like King Everveil, the Branch Head called for his informants and asked for all information pertaining to 'Azmodeus'.
As everyone was looking to figure out all they could about his existence, the man in question had just obtained his twenty-sixth Immortal Physique!
"That makes number twenty six…"
OOOM!
After feeling a wave of energy wash over his body and change the structure of his bones and marrow, Azmodeus figured out a way to have this Physique work together with his other Physiques.
Although all of them did different things, their main primary purposes were centered around the augmentation of the user's body. Through these augmentations, Azmodeus's Battle Power took major leaps!
He felt that he was on the precipice of the breakthrough that he had been searching for; all he had to do was make one last final push and achieve a Battle Power in the All-Encompassing Immortal Realm!
However…
"It does appear that I have run out of Physiques that I can acquire with the limited amount of conditional fluctuaters that I have available to me… Well, I did order enough to set up the conditions for a couple hundred more unique Physiques. But to get those, I will need to wait until the resources arrive… For now, the only thing I can do to make that final jump is…"
WHIRL!
"Breakthrough."
With his voice acting as the flipping of a switch, Azmodeus started his breakthrough into the Grade 8 Great Pinnacle Golden Immortal Realm with post-haste.
In less than two minutes, his Dantian Space had even more Immortal Energy fill it up. And with it rippling off the water that was already there, the breakthrough was thus deemed a complete success!
OOOM!
