Dragon Monarch System

As he jumped back in the air to dodge, suddenly Aditya teleported behind him. Before Harrison could dodge, the Adamantite Doomblade had already severed right Harrison's arm. Harrison was left stunned seeing his right was falling down.

'Huh....!!'

'When did he...?'

Severing just one arm of Harrison wasn't enough for Aditya. He wanted to end this trouble right here and return home as soon as possible.

But the second time Aditya wasn't so lucky. Just before the sword could touch his back, a powerful violent Aura surged out of Harrison's body. The Aura was strong enough to push Aditya away.

Seeing this, he became cautious. Around the same time, a sharp black spike rose from the ground and headed towards his chest. Aditya noticed that Harrison's attacking speed had increased or rather multiplied.

'So fast...!!!' Aditya only saw the black sharp spike once before it was already about to pierce his chest.

Swoosh.....!!!

At the last second second, Aditya disappeared and reappeared more than 50 meters away from Harrison.

After teleporting, he looked at his chest to see that his clothes were torn. If he hadn't worn the 'Crimson Warlock Set', then he would have been bleeding by now.

'How did his speed increase suddenly?' Aditya asked himself while staring at Harrison.

Meanwhile, Harrison bent down and picked up his severed arm. His eyes were glowing brightly in red color. As he grinned, Aditya could see his vampire fangs that he uses to suck blood.

Aditya saw Harrison putting his severed arm back. As both ends joined, he saw white smoke coming. Within a few seconds, his severed was reattached and he was now able to move his arm as if nothing ever happened to it.

"What do you think?" Harrison asked while moving his arm.

Aditya did not reply.

"Do you know why I secretly spread that curse in many cities in the central region?" Aditya did not reply but it was clear that he was curious.

"In the previous Continental War, I was severely injured. And not only that because this bastard came up with a plan to place a curse upon me, at the end of the battle, all the powerful mages placed a curse on my Mana Heart." Eldric who was not so far away trembled hearing Harrison's words. Even though he was a Peak 5th-order cultivator as well, compared to those two, he was nothing. He did not even dare to run away as he knew that his fate was sealed.

Now his only remaining hope was for the Dragon Monarch to kill Harrison so that he could survive. He was ready to help the Dragon Monarch whom he considered to be his enemy because of the Dragon grass, with whatever he had.

"The curse not only prevented me from ever cultivating, but it also prevented me from recovering my lost powers. I had fallen from grace and had lost most of my strength."

"To regain my former Peak 5th-order strength, I had used an evil method which was...."

"By collecting Life force.....!!" Aditya completed his sentence. From their previous confrontation, he was more or less able to guess why Harrison spread the curse. But now he was 100% sure.

"I love how smart you're, Your Majesty....!!!" Harrison chuckled before continuing.

"Even with my strength restored taking the Dragon Grass was still going to be impossible. After all, there is no way that I could defeat 300 million cultivators. Not to mention to defeat you and that Hydra, even my restored strength wouldn't have been enough."

At this moment, Eldric had a bad feeling in his heart. He felt he had a vague idea of where this was going. As for Aditya, he continued to listen.

"Since I was a child, I have lived only for supreme strength. My dream is to stand as the strongest Cultivator on this planet and rule everything. I was born to be a King." He said while spreading his arms in a dramatic way.

"However, no matter how unique and special I was, in the world of cultivators, there was always a bigger sun that shined brighter than me. No matter what did I, I always fell short before them."

"But finally my chance came when the world gave birth to the 'World Treasure', also known as the strongest treasure of this current era."

Harrison had a crazy look as he continued speaking. "The World Treasure was the key. Whoever possessed the World Treasure was going to become the King of this world. He is going to be the King of everything. He will be the supreme one."

Eldric remembered that at that time, the entire world was after the World Treasure. There was a reason why 1/3 of the entire Beast Continent's population was wiped out in that war. It was because of the immense heavenly greed that the World Treasure brought.

The World Treasure was the supreme treasure. It was a source of immense temptation. No matter what kind of desire one might have, by possessing the World Treasure it was possible to fulfill that desire.

That century when the World Treasure was born also could be considered the most chaotic century of this current era.

"I had to fight billions of cultivators just for the World Treasure. Just when I was 'Very' close to achieving my dream, I was stabbed in the back by someone that I never thought would betray me. Everything fell apart at that moment." Harrison's eyes were filled with blood because of anger

In the end, everyone was left wondering the question, where is the World Treasure? The Treasure had just mysteriously disappeared shortly after Harrison was betrayed. Regardless of how much, everyone tried to look at it, the World Treasure was never seen again. Over time, people eventually forgot about the World Treasure.

Aditya fell silent for a few seconds before his words shocked Eldric and everyone else. "You have the World Treasure, don't you?" Aditya asked in a calm tone.

From the beginning, this guy has been dropping hints. If Harrison really thought that with his current strength, he could defeat Aditya or the Hydra or fight everyone else for the Dragon Grass, then he is severely overestimating himself just like everyone who has come here in the hope of getting the Dragon Grass. But if he has the World Treasure, then this changes everything.

"Hahaha...!!!!" Hearing this Harrison just laughed before he took out something very shiny and glowing from his chest. The artifact slowly floated out of his chest.

It was a shiny glowing Pagoda.

The pagoda looks like a tower made of many layers. Each layer is smaller than the one below it. It has many roofs that curve upwards and are decorated with what looks like bells at the corners. The entire pagoda is made of a see-through material that sparkles like glass or ice. It shines very brightly as if it is made out of light, with different colors shining off its surfaces like a rainbow.

Scene change______

Seeing the Pagoda, Lady Eleanor completely lost her calm. Back then, she also chased after the World Treasure but after some time she gave up as she realized that it was impossible to get the World Treasure.

She, Eldric, and others who have fought in the Continental War clearly remembered what the World Treasure looked like.

"But how does he have the World Treasure?" Lady Eleanor could not understand.

Meanwhile, in the Celestial Terrain,

Amelia was standing in shock. Her mouth was wide open. "It's the World Treasure....!!! But how did he gain possession of the world treasure?" Amelia almost could not believe what she was seeing.

Back in those days, even the Celestial Terrain was unable to resist the temptation and ended up fighting for the World Treasure only to lose close to 200,000 of their troops.

Amelia and her sister Seraphine did everything in their power to get the Pagoda but they failed at the end.

The sole reason why they stopped pursuing the World Treasure was because the Treasure mysteriously disappeared.

"Now that I think about it when the World Treasure disappeared, it was around the time when many forces joined hands to put a curse on Harrison. After this event, the person who was taught to possess the World Treasure was mysteriously killed. And another big fight between all forces broke out in the Beast Continent. This was the final big fight which resulted in close to 90 million deaths. The World Treasure continued to change hands until amidst the war, the treasure just completely disappeared."

"So it was Harrison who managed to get the World Treasure in amidst the chaos." Amelia had to say that Harrison was really smart.

'He clearly understood that if anyone knew that he had gotten the World Treasure then his entire Empire would be destroyed within a day. So he purposely kept his head low this entire time. It is only after he has made his preparations that he dares to take out the World Treasure.' Amelia thought.

Amelia felt really scared about Aditya as she faintly knew what the World Treasure was capable of. 'I should head to the Beast Continent.' The next second, she appeared in front of the teleportation.

Meanwhile,

Other than the old cultivators, others who were still watching everything in the Beast Continent did not recognize what kind of Treasure Harrison had taken out. However, it did not take long for them to realize that this was the legendary World Treasure that had shaken the whole world 9 centuries ago.

"I admire your talent. And I like your character very much."

"You still have time Aditya. It would be a shame to kill you. Geniuses like you only appear once every million years or maybe every billion years. You were born to become a great person."

"And I have the power to make you that great person. If you follow me then you can fulfill your destiny. So join me.....!!!"

Aditya remained silent for a few seconds.

Seeing that Aditya wasn't replying, Harrison's face turned dark gradually.

Aditya just coldly stared at this arrogant person. This person seems to have lost his touch with reality.

"Make me a great person?" Hearing this Aditya laughed arrogantly. This has to be a joke.

"What accomplishment have you ever made in your long life to have such arrogance?" Aditya took a step forward and continued.

"I have achieved more in the last year than you have achieved in your entire life." Harrison felt his cheeks heating up upon hearing these words. He felt as if someone had slapped him in front of the whole world. That statement was the meanest thing anyone had ever said to Harrison. At that moment, hearing these words, he lost his calm. He felt really angry.

What Aditya said was indeed true. And this is the reason why Harrison felt so humiliated hearing his words.

In the last year, Aditya has won many wars. He has ended the reign of many Empires and Kingdoms. He has taken the small Istarin Dynasty to be one of the Greatest Empires on the six continents. He had made powerful allies in other continents. Because of vision and planning, the Istarin Empire is one of the most developed Empires in the whole world. Compared to that, what has Harrison achieved in his 1000+ years old life?

He released his full killing intent while glaring at Aditya.

His killing intent was so strong that even a Peak 5th-order cultivator like Eldric coughed up blood before falling to his knees. His face had turned pale. His hands and legs were shivering.

However, Aditya was totally unfazed. This killing intent was nothing to him.

『_Activation Time of Soul Inferno Ascension - 10:39』

Aditya glanced at the time that he had left on his hand. Although fighting someone who could use the World Treasure is going to be really troublesome, as long as he played his cards well, it wasn't totally hopeless battle. There were still chances for him to win.

'I have 10 minutes to end this battle.' Aditya thought in his mind. Initially Aditya also liked Harrison a little bit but now he wanted nothing but to end him life and be done with it.

Really Thank you very much to all those who send support with valuable golden tickets. I hope we can keep it up!!!
