It was as though the intertwined beams of red light were weaving a giant cage. They filled up the small space less than a meter without leaving any gap.

Roar!

Suddenly, there was a painful cry coming from the giant snake within the beam.

“It’s no use.”

The red light dissipated, and large, bright spots remained on everyone’s retina. The black cloud had been completely dispersed by the particle beams.

Garen was still hovering in the air without any injuries. His whole body seemed to have an invisible barrier blocking all the attacks from the outside.

Including the gigantic tail of the giant snake.

“The barrier of my Faded Creation can shield against and absorb any attacks that are harmful to me,” Garen calmly explained. It was indeed a little boring to bully a pathetic Level Eight snake with his Level-Ten skills. “At your level, even if the attack is twice as strong, there’s still no use.”

“Alright, the drama is over. For the sake of my future, just obediently offer me your strength...” Garen stretched out his hands. The extremely horrific Ten Thousand Gravitational Force in his palms ferociously slammed toward the giant snake, which had turned around to escape in fear.

Hiss!

The giant snake gave out an awful scream and was caught by an invisible gravitational energy field.

Whish, whish, whish!

Beams of red particles shot out again, trying to stop Garen from catching the giant snake. The people of the Dual-Key Sect were clearly on the edge.

Very soon, there was some vague, Non-Falling-Level aura rising into the air; some of it was flowing from the spaceships which were headed this way from a distance.

The red lights which were shot out vanished completely when they reached less than one meter in front of Garen. The Non-falling-Level powerhouses were all hindered by the Scarlet Snow Sect’s Non-falling-Level Ice Demon Generals who were unable to contain themselves any longer. The Scarlet Snow Sect did not mobilize everyone. Only seven Ice Demon Generals were dispatched, and with that, all the powerhouses of the Dual-Key Sect were stopped. The current Scarlet Snow Sect way different from the weak sect it used to be.

“Obediently submit to our Scarlet Snow! Hahahaha!” Besset chortled and engaged a black-armored man. A huge amount of energy dissipated with white and red explosions in the outer space from time to time, much like a display of fireworks.

“Support Lord Andes!” Someone desperately rushed toward Garen without caring about the pain and the attacks. However, before he could even get close, he was blocked on the outside by a huge energy field.

“It’s over,” Garen reached out and held the snake’s neck, lifting up its entire body.

Whoosh!

Numerous white vines extended wildly toward the giant snake and wrapped around it. A Distorted Seed silently shot out at the snake following the vines.

On the battle fortress, the originally flurried monarchs and others were all taken aback by what they had seen. They had no idea how to react, but very soon, their faces became more and more ecstatic. No one had imagined that Garen would actually be this strong.

“But... There must be a trial for rashly breaching the Alliance Treaty!” Very quickly, the monarchs and others began to worry again.

The fact that the Sect Alliance did not allow mutual attacks was also the biggest rule. Otherwise, if it was a dog-eat-dog state, would the entire Sect Alliance not be left only with the Holy-Lord forces? Where would there be the opportunity for the Scarlet Snow to attack the Dual-Key Sect?

However, at this moment, everyone was stunned by Garen’s sudden outburst.

Even the trio of Osho Ice-Ocean, Ice-crack, and Ice-Grand was completely suppressed by the terrific force field just now.

“Indeed, it is the Lord whom we pursue! I... I...” Osho was a little excited. The supporting order earlier on was given out by him. In the absence of Garen, he was the temporary Sect Master.

“It seems that even if there is no Guardian, Scarlet Snow will also usher in a new era of glory!” Ice-Grand slowly spoke. There was also a hint of excitement which could hardly be concealed in his tone. With strength comes wealth, power, and everything!

No one would not be unmoved by these things. There might be such noble people, but they were definitely not here.

The Dual-Key Sect’s powerhouses were quickly subdued. However, they were all rebellious; they clearly thought that the people of Scarlet Snow did not dare to kill them. The Alliance’s pact was not to be trifled with. Once it was contravened, it would bring about an absolute destruction. There was such a precedent. A powerful sect ignored the treaty and went to attack and invade another small sect. That sect was immediately razed by the Alliance’s powerhouses. All the elite disciples were killed, and the ordinary disciples disbanded. The heritage of the entire sect was wiped out.

Under the brilliant radiance of a star, surrounded by various other stars in the universe, the entire battlefield was enveloped by countless ice-crystal vines. It was impossible to see what was happening on the inside.

Inside the white space, only Garen and the giant snake, which was also the Guardian, were there.

“I have told you everything. You can decide for yourself what you want to choose,” Garen looked calmly at the giant snake before him. He directly told the other party about the catastrophe of Energy Machinists and placed the Distorted Seed in front of it.

He believed that this level of powerhouse absolutely had their own means of judging whether the Distorted Seed was useful to it.

Hence, all he had to do was to calmly show the pros and cons. After all, if these powerhouses of such a level were not willing to be controlled by him, even if they were successfully parasitized, they would not harm him. At most, they would not obey his commands.

After all, the Hellfrost Peacock Queen itself did not have the ability to control the contaminated bodies. If they could be controlled, the Distorted Seed would not have such a powerful enhancing effect. There were advantages and disadvantages to everything.

Especially now that Garen had entered Level Ten, the Peacock Technique had also been boosted and enhanced, entering the peak of a successful completion and beginning to evolve toward Hellfrost Peacock Queen. The Distorted Seed seemed to have boosted to an extreme and horrific level with the further advancement of the Hellfrost Peacock Technique – twelve times.

The horrific property of being able to enhance the powers of the average person by twelve times was the real power of the Distorted Seed.

It could pull all the chaotic emotions in him together, turn them into a substantial energy to boost and strengthen himself, and ultimately control everything with a cold heart. This was the process of controlling the Chaotic Power using the Heart of Ice. It was also the manifestation of the true meaning of Cold Chaos.

Therefore, all who were parasitized could release a natural Cold Chaos and further expand the scope of Hellfrost Peacock’s contamination.

The Black Water giant snake’s pupils kept flashing and changing. At this point, it knew that even if it did not want to, it still had to eat the seed regardless. Moreover, after examining this thing several times, there was no harm in it. Instead, the giant snake felt like it would benefit itself.

“This is the general trend. If we don’t cling together, we will all die!” Garen added one last sentence.

“Regardless of what you say is true or false, at this point, do I have the choice to not eat it?” The giant snake mocked. Although it could destroy the Distorted Seed easily, it was just as it said, it had no choice.

The giant snake opened its mouth and swallowed the Distorted Seed suspended in the air.

The second its gigantic body swallowed the seed, it immediately began to emanate a glowing white light. A kind of white silky network-like light path emerged from its body and appeared on its entire scales and skin.

Hiss...

The surrounding vines quickly recoiled.

Exposing the outer space on the outside world, the people of the Dual-Key Sect had all been subdued. Seeing that the giant snake was safe and unharmed at this moment, both sides appeared to be unusually at peace. With that, the pace of battle gradually slowed down.

“Stop,” Garen’s deep voice came from the helmet.

The people of the Scarlet Snow Sect quickly withdrew and left the battling group. Without the entanglement and obstruction, the powerhouses of the Dual-Key Sect also gradually came to a halt. They were initially almost at the same levels as the Scarlet Snow’s Non-falling Levels. However, among the powerhouses in Scarlet Snow, a few of them, who were initially already at Non-falling Level, gained a great increase of power after consuming the Distorted Seed, thus suppressing them totally. Without Garen’s prior arrangements, they would have been immediately wiped out. It was necessary to know that there was still a difference between the Non-falling Levels.

Garen looked at the giant snake.

At this moment, the entire aura of the giant snake was swelling up more and more, becoming increasingly powerful. There seemed to be some signs of losing control. Twelve times of physical strengthening was simply a big killer move for this kind of horrific presence which utilized the advantage of its body size as a means for livelihood.

“This... This kind of power...?!” He murmured unbelievably.

Whoosh!

A black gas spewed out from the mouth of the giant snake and diffused into the surroundings. The black gas warped into human figures which were holding hands and dancing, resembling the most primitive dance during offerings.

Boom!

Suddenly, the black gas around the giant snake exploded and dissipated, exposing its current body. From the previous gigantic snake body, it had swelled up to twice the original. It then quickly scaled down to a snake-headed person roughly similar to Garen. It had a white robe on and a golden headdress on its head.

A moment later, the fluctuation of its aura had entered Level Nine, reaching the middle stage of Level Nine before stabilizing.

“Thank you for making it happen!” The snake-man opened his eyes and revealed a sincere appreciation and respect. He now really believed Garen’s words. If things were not at stake, how could the other party be as generous as to hand out this kind of treasure, the Distorted Seed, for the outsiders to use?

“We are all Energy Machinists. If we do not unite in the face of such a disaster, we will not have a way out,” Garen shook his head. “So, it’s not that I intend to do this, but the situation compelled me into so doing.”

“If what you say is true, I am willing to form an alliance with the Scarlet Snow on behalf of the Dual-Key Sect. If even a powerhouse such as yourself dread it, I can’t imagine how terrible the upcoming disaster will be,” The giant snake transmitted its voice. That was what it truly thought.

Garen was not anxious. The effect of the Distorted Seed on the nature of mind was not immediate. It would take some time, and there was no need to worry. When the parasitized bodies really wanted to harm him, they would naturally eliminate this idea. The influence of the Distorted Seed would only appear during these times.

Plus, if Garen was at risk and his life was in danger, all the Distorted Seeds would feel it and take the initiative to protect him. This was because Garen, as the initiator of the Distorted Seed, was the source of the powers required to strengthen all the Distorted Seeds.

Once he died, all the Distorted Seeds would lose their effects, thus restoring the fortified parasitized bodies back to their original state, losing the enhanced power. This was often the most unbearable matter to any of the strengthened, parasitized bodies.

“Alright. The Scarlet Snow’s army needs some maintenance. It all depends on you now,” Garen said plainly. The reason he brought the army here to create a big parade so that the people of the Dual-Key Sect would not view them lightly and only send out some small fries.

“If it is maintenance, there is no problem with that,” The giant snake had already believed in Garen at this moment. Its own strength had entered Level Nine for real, and this made it overjoyed. It initially thought that this would be a disaster, but it did not expect it to be a blessing in disguise.

After contemplating for a while, it finally decided.

“My Dual-Key Sect formally joins His Highness the Sect Master of the Scarlet Snow Sect’s alliance, and we will go through thick and thin together,” Its voice suddenly traveled to every Dual-Key Sect’s powerhouse.

As the Guardian, who was the strongest in the sect, it had the supreme authority to decide on the sect affairs in Dual-Key Sect.

As this directive spread out, all the Non-falling Levels of the Dual-Key Sect were at a loss.
