Primordial God Of Time

The worm demon's thoughts became unsettled; the feeling of being strong couldn't help but take over it. Nevertheless, it soon shook its head. It wasn't sure if the pill was tampered with and still wanted to be cautious.

Meanwhile, noticing Ko had fled, Kranos decided not to waste any more time. Besides, at this moment, he could faintly feel the royal academy token vibrate slightly; in just an hour's time, he would be teleported out of this world.

Returning his gaze from Ko, Kranos immediately noticed a faint trickle of water on the hand gripping Eternal Hunger… Rain?

Looking at the clouds, which had started raining, Kranos smiled faintly.

"Eternal Night, time to break through to the next rank…"

As soon as Kranos finished speaking, his figure dashed forward once again, and the beast's movements visibly slowed. He immediately attacked the demon with a horizontal chop, followed by a vertical slash.

As the battle progressed, the worm demon grew increasingly panicked.

"Should I use that move?"

A slight thought emerged in the worm demon's mind. It had a technique to call its seniors, one its master had taught them all.

At times, if the master was close by, he could even help them as soon as they used the technique.

"No, there's still that," the worm demon shook its head. Then its gaze turned to the 'Nine Serenities' pill.

"According to elder brother, the Nine Serenities Pill should take effect immediately upon swallowing it. If this pill doesn't, I will immediately take it out!"

The worm demon came to a decision. It could feel its lifespan draining and knew it couldn't hold on for much longer.

Another reason it opted for the pill rather than considering the help of its elder disciples was that they might be too far away; some of them usually explored the chaotic void, while others explored danger zones in the divine world. It didn't know how long it would take before they saved it.

Before then, Kranos might have already taken its life. Not hesitating any longer, the worm demon rushed forward, grabbed the pill, and swallowed it, not giving Kranos a chance to react.

At first, he thought the demon wanted to run away and was about to give chase, but seeing the demon take the 'Nine Serenities' pill, he couldn't hold back the urge to burst out laughing. It worked in the end. Kranos smiled inwardly.

On the other side, as soon as the demon swallowed the Nine Serenities Pill, it immediately felt invigorated. It could faintly feel its strength returning and was immediately overjoyed. Content presented by MV|LEMP|YR.

"It was actually the Nine Serenities Pill? How could I be this lucky?"

The beast didn't think too much and immediately began absorbing the medicinal effects of the pill.

However, the next moment, its expression changed drastically.

"How can this be?"

As soon as the demon started absorbing the medicinal effects of the poison pill, it immediately realized that its whole body was being corroded.

It instantly realized that something was wrong with the pill; however, it was too late! The demon could feel everything about it being corroded. If it wasn't for the fact that it could regenerate, it would have died multiple times.

At this, it noticed the pair of silver eyes underneath the masked man staring at it curiously. It was in despair; it immediately knew there was no way it could survive. How could it not have realized that Ko had plotted against it?

"KO! I CURSE YOUR EIGHTEEN GENERATIONS!"

The worm demon shouted fiercely as it tried to run away. However, how could Kranos give it a chance?

Seeing that everything was going in the wrong direction, the worm demon no longer hesitated and employed the secret technique the master had taught them…

"Seniors, save me, I'm about to die!!!"

Its voice seemed to contain a peculiar power; it immediately transcended the heavens and earth, spreading in all directions. Everyone on the planet could hear this loud plea for help. At the same time, in the void, the voice echoed, still transcending space and time, heading to somewhere unknown.

Seeing this, Kranos's expression immediately changed drastically. He felt something was wrong, and without hesitation, he immediately attacked the demon in rapid succession with Eternal Hunger, hoping to drain its lifespan. However, the worm demon's vitality was extremely strong.

It wasn't until more than ten minutes passed that Kranos was able to kill the demon. However, just as Kranos relaxed slightly, he immediately felt a strong sense of fatal danger.

He struggled to look up. In the purple sky, as rain was slowly falling, it immediately came to a stop. Within the sky, Kranos could see the whole planet gradually cracking and breaking apart.

Kranos didn't have time to think and immediately crushed the jade token. Although one could teleport before the one hour was up, Kranos chose not to do so before because he wanted to kill the worm demon, but now he didn't hesitate in the slightest.

However, just as Kranos crushed the jade token, he was frozen in shock because of what he saw next: what was actually cracking the sky apart was actually…

a gigantic hand?

The gigantic hand seemed too heavy for the planet to bear, causing it to be imploded. Kranos immediately noticed that time had seemingly frozen—no, time hadn't frozen… the hand was just moving too fast, even faintly transcending space and time.

Kranos immediately paused time, using that moment to teleport away. But just as he paused time, the gigantic hand paused slightly, then continued heading for Kranos unabated… it only paused for merely a few seconds…

Fortunately…

"It's enough!"

Without caring about the fate of the planet, Kranos vanished into the spatial portal and was teleported back to the Immortal World.

At the same time, in a chaotic space filled with 12 altars, one of the altars suddenly dimmed…

An ancient figure, who seemed to be neither human nor demon, opened his eyes and glanced at it.

He then muttered slowly,

"Such a good pawn is already dead?"

His expression remained unchanged, after which he transmitted his voice to one of the altars.

He was the worm demon's master!
