Unbeatable! Invincible! Unparalleled!

Now that both the chief and champion of the Iguanas had fallen, with no leader to lead them, they no longer has the motivation to continue the fight.

Thus, they went back soon after the fight ended with crestfallen looks. All along, they thought that they would be able to win against the Komodos with their overwhelming numbers. But who would have thought that a human would help their opponent becoming something that was impossible for them to beat?

In contrast to this, the Komodos roared out joyfully, celebrating their unexpected victory. Before, they had already prepared themselves to accept their inevitable fate, but with the descent of their savior, Duan Li, they managed to turn things around and emerged as the victor!

At this moment, all of them stared towards the silhouette that was moving fast on top of his mount, busily fetching monster cores with agitated expression, the kind of faces that one would usually make when looking at someone they worship. It was filled with awe and utmost reverence!

Huuu!

"I think that we are done here!" Duan Li said as he looked around and nodded in satisfaction. He had swiped clean all the monster cores from the Iguana's carcasses!

Just by his estimate alone, the total number of monster cores he gained from this grand scheme of his was about 6,000! This was a number that could make even honest people become extremely greedy!

Furthermore, these monster cores weren't from the typical low-level monsters, but those that were mostly at the pinnacle stage of the Foundation establishment realm!

If any empire were to obtain such an amount of resource, they could usher in a new batch of elite cultivators that would help in reinforcing the strength of their empire!

However, Duan Li didn't have that in his mind, it was all to cultivate it inside his dantian, so that he could form an egg that would eventually hatch into an Elemental Spirit Origin like Dilong and Zhulong!

Zolak and Bulu approached Duan Li from behind after nodding to each other, seemingly to come into an agreement.

Tap!

Zolak laid flat on the ground while Bulu kneeled with both legs, this was the highest form of honor and respect that their tribe would show to someone!

Complete submission!

Soon after, the rest of the Komodos followed suit and laid flat on the ground as well, prostrating in worship!

"This.." Duan Li was feeling a little awkward now.

Was there a need for them to do this?

"Lord benefactor, from now on, we, the Komodo tribe shall vow with our soul and being to serve you on whatever requests that you may have in the future, even if it means.. walking to our own death!" chief Zolak said out loud as the rest of them roared out in unison including Bulu, "We shall serve Lord benefactor to the death!", their voices carried powerful conviction that resounded from every single last one of them!

BOOMM!!

Right after this vow was made en masse, the sky began to split open revealing the starry skies as if it were the nighttime! Several stars then collided together to form an explosion on the galactic scale!

Everyone was dumbfounded by this sudden scene, everyone, except Dugu Liubai whom knew what this meant!

Tap! Tap!

He staggered backward in shock and horror, his face was drained of color once more, and he said something between his haggard breathing;

"T-The starry skies collided.. this.. this is the Fate reversal phenomena!" he muttered somewhat incoherently as he glanced at the back figure of Duan Li that was currently staring at the explosion in the sky with furrowed brows.

Dugu Liubai was in absolute disbelief!

An existence that was capable of shaking off even fate itself.. he had only heard it once in the legends before, but none such figure had ever existed! It was merely some folklore that served to motivate cultivators, so that they will never give up and continue to pursue their dreams and aspiration regardless of how difficult that was to achieve!

But now, seeing the phenomena himself, Dugu Liubai knew for sure that it was no mere folktales, but real!

After all, he was looking at that very person right now!

"A person who challenged the fate itself.. that's really scary! Will this fellow become someone whom would be able to change the current status quo of the Tian continent?" he thought inwardly, before shaking his head a moment later.

No.. the fate of the Tian continent isn't something that can be changed..

"Hmm.. What is the Heavens up to now? Casually destroying a few stars like that.. are they really that bored with nothing else to do?" Duan Li narrowed his eyes in suspicion.

Puii!

Dugu Liubai spat to the side in fury and resentment when he heard the words coming out from the latter.

"The stars exploded because some predetermined fate has been changed by you!" he bellowed out to Duan Li subconsciously in a fit of rage.

According to ancient knowledge, every stars in the sky harnesses someone's fate. They would continue to shine until that person died, and would blink if that person's fate underwent some minor changes. However, if it exploded, that means the person's fate was changed entirely!

"Eh? What was that?" Duan Li turned around and inquiried as he didn't manage to hear Dugu Liubai properly.

"Hmph! Forget it! Anyway young fellow, I trust that you entered the Eternal maze was because you want to clear the trial of the maze?" Dugu Liubai asked.

This fellow is a troublemaker! Its best if I send him out as early as possible!

He was referring to the mazes that also housed the exit gateway to return to the Tian continent.

"Eh? Indeed I am.. would Old man Dugu show me the way?" Duan Li replied with a nod.

Old man Dugu this.. Old man Dugu that..

Dugu Liubai could no longer held it in and voiced out his pented up complaints, "I believe that you should address me as the Lord Guardian, I am not your uncle!"

He was feeling quite aggrieved right now. After all, in this Second region, he commanded the absolute authority that should garnered everyone's respect!

Yet this damned fellow continued to address him so casually! Thus, how could he allow it to continue?

"Ah! I'm sorry! I thought that by addressing you as such would make you feel less lonely.." Duan Li immediately apologized and scratched the back of his head feeling a bit guilty. He truly meant nothing else by using such a nickname on Dugu Liubai.

"..." Dugu Liubai.

So because I am the Guardian here for thousands of years, you think I am starting to get a bit lonely?

Obviously you are looking down on the Eternal Maze for too much!

You had only entered up until the Second region.. so what would you know of the society on the Fourth region?

Hmph!

Ignoring the remark from Duan Li, Dugu Liubai waved his hand to gesture for the other party to follow him.

"Follow me!"

Ssuuu!!
