Fate Reignites: My Rampage in a World Where Time Stops

"Fine, so be it," Sank accepted the explanation and then glared at the few busybodies who had just urged him to defect to other clans, "My loyalty to the Half-demon Clan is clear as day!"

-----------------

In the main city of the Masiso Territory, there was a massive central square.

This square could easily accommodate a grand gathering of all the clans living in the main city, serving as the fixed venue for all major announcements in the Masiso Territory.

At this moment, the venue was once again put into use. Beings from various clans living here had crowded together, and the vast square was bustling with activity.

When the crowd had gathered sufficiently, Deliclay, under the watchful eyes of thousands, slowly stepped onto the high platform in front of the square. His gaze swept over the crowd below, seemingly searching for the figures of two humans hidden among them.

After an unsuccessful attempt, Deliclay took back his gaze and calmly began to speak, his voice naturally projecting like a tide rolling over the throngs of people.

"I, Lord of the Masiso Territory, Nether River Demon God · Deliclay."

"Today, I, along with the other three clans of the Masiso Territory, will make a significant announcement."

"I believe many among you have already heard some rumors."

"Yes, the Heavenly Dome Rank might soon see the emergence of a seventh clan."

"This clan, known as the Human Race, possesses what kind of power we do not yet know, but one thing is certain—they will become our enemies."

"At this critical moment, they are in the most crucial period, the SSS-level instance period."

"They could potentially use the instance to descend upon any area of the Heavenly Dome Rank and mark any one of us as a target that must be eliminated."

"So we must unite and confront the Human Race together."

"If we can cause their attempt to conquer the SSS-level instance to fail, the Human Race might be prevented from entering the Heavenly Dome Rank, which would be great news for every one of our clans."

"So!" Deliclay raised his voice a notch.

"The moment the Human Race is spotted, it must be reported to us immediately. Likewise, anyone who attempts to aid the Human Race will face the gravest of punishments!"

"Oh?" a voice rang out softly, "What kind of punishment?"

As the words fell, Qin Chuan stepped out from the crowd, his Transcendent Value rivaling the Mythical Rank surging powerfully, instantly parting the living beings around him to create a path.

He walked step by step toward Deliclay, as the disguise of Pei Ma'er, exerted with all his might, rapidly dissolved to reveal his true form.

A long blade appeared in Qin Chuan's hand.

"Luo…" Deliclay's eyes instantly sharpened, his hand conjuring a Demon Gun, the momentum of the Mythical Rank soaring to the skies, scattering the clouds above.

"You really did come!"

Behind him, representatives of the Dragon Clan, Dwarf Demons, and Dead Ghosts—all Mythical Rank—appeared, eyeing Qin Chuan with vigilance while revealing their own formidable auras.

Each of them was no less powerful than the Spirit Rhinoceros Demon God.

Seeing this scene, Qin Chuan paused slightly and spoke calmly.

"My target this time is Deliclay."

"I have no intention of making enemies of the other Mythical Ranks."

Qin Chuan clearly saw the other three Mythical Ranks relax a little at his words.

But…

They did not step back, nor did they diminish their formidable presence.

Qin Chuan's brow furrowed slightly, but it was at this moment that Deliclay's unrestrained laughter filled the air.

"Trying to sow discord among us with these tactics?"

"Luo, you're too naive."

"The Human Race's appearance in the Heavenly Dome Rank affects not just the Half-demon Clan but every clan upon the Heavenly Dome Rank."

"You probably do not yet understand this."

"But no matter, you will understand soon enough."

"To your death!"

With a stomp, Deliclay unleashed a torrential river from the void that came crashing towards Qin Chuan, as if the heavens and earth might collapse under this terrifying deluge.

The Demon Gun in his hand swept through the waves, and in a blink, Deliclay was before Qin Chuan with the spear raised high, as if to pierce through Qin Chuan's chest.

After sensing Qin Chuan's true strength, Deliclay even felt that all the various precautions he had prepared were superfluous.

With strength nearing nine million, what difficulty could there be to kill someone barely reaching five million in strength?!

And at that moment, Deliclay suddenly heard an indifferent voice.

"Spirit Descent…"

To his senses, the Luo before him, previously as dormant as a volcano, suddenly erupted, releasing a terrifying force in an instant, with a ferocious aura that sent chills down his spine.

His confident expression froze.

A dark red fist broke through the torrent and swiftly enlarged in his field of vision.

"Boom!!!"

The raging waves that had swept down were instantaneously reversed under that thrown punch!

Qin Chuan withdrew his fist, clad in pitch-black armor, and calmly watched Deliclay, who was flung into the air, spitting blood, and muttered four unfinished words.

"Blood Rage Struggle!"

"You…" Deliclay, who had narrowly saved his life with a special ability from that punch, had his pupils sharply contract, staring at the terrifying figure in the distance.

Just a second ago, the other's strength had been below his.

In merely an instant, the other's strength had multiplied several times over, already surpassing the upper limit of the Mythical Rank First Realm!

Without any hesitation, he swallowed a blood-red Dan Pill and, as his wounds rapidly healed, he bellowed, "What are you waiting for?! Attack!"

"Boom boom boom!!!"

Following Deliclay's cry, 13 figures surged from all directions of the plaza, simultaneously assaulting Qin Chuan.

Each one possessed the mighty strength of the Mythical Rank!

"You guys…" Surprise colored Qin Chuan's face, "So all have come."

Following Lin Yue's advice, before they took action, the two had inquired about the situation of the Mythical Ranks in all the nearby territories.

There were five territories bordering the Masiso Territory, with a total of 18 individuals at Mythical Rank.

Excluding the Moon Spirit and the Crystal Clan's Mythical Ranks, all the others had actually come.

Adding the four Mythical Ranks from the Masiso Territory.

A total of 17 Mythical Ranks had appeared simultaneously!

This greatly exceeded Qin Chuan and Lin Yue's expectations.

After all, in their initial estimation, it would have been good if a few Mythical Ranks had come.

To cause his SSS rank instance to fail, were these guys really going all out?

Qin Chuan faintly realized there might be some factors he was unaware of involved.

Even with his strength after invoking Spirit Descent, fighting 17 Mythical Ranks at the same time would also require harnessing the power of Time Stop.

However, of course, he hadn't come alone.

"Spirit Descent·"

At the instant a host of Mythical Ranks charged at Qin Chuan, a light scolding echoed through the arena.

"Zzzt—"

The sharp clamor of electric arcs tearing through the void resonated instantly, and countless bolts of lightning roamed between heaven and earth in a flash.

The next moment, one of the Mythical Ranks attacking Qin Chuan let out a scream.

A sharp Thunder Spear instantly pierced through his body.

The terrible power of thunder exploded, tearing that Mythical Rank apart in an instant.

A graceful figure stepped on the lightning and appeared beside Qin Chuan in a flash, casually squeezing her hand to form a Thunder Spear identical to the previous one.

"Heavenly Thunder Annihilation!"

Watching Lin Yue, who stood by Qin Chuan's side and instantly killed a Mythical Rank with a single move, the other Mythical Ranks at the scene shuddered intensely.

Damn it, how did another such formidable person appear?!

"Damn it!" Deliclay clenched his teeth furiously.

Even though he had some expectations, Lin Yue truly displaying strength not inferior to Qin Chuan's still caused his heart to sink heavily.

Had they no choice but to resort to that method...

He took out a crystal filled with an ominous gray-black aura and, without any hesitation, crushed it, then his figure flashed, appearing on the previously speaking platform.

"Click click click—"

Accompanied by the sound of mechanisms, an incredibly lifelike sculpture rose from the ground.

"I invoke the Ember Demon God to descend!"

Along with Deliclay's loud call, a terrifying aura quickly revived on the sculpture.

Qin Chuan, who realized the first time he couldn't exit the instance, looked towards the sculpture with a startle in his heart.

What is that?!
