’Help free the Behemoth?’ Alm and Bruno’s minds raced at an unbelievable speed. ’There are nine seals, and I’ve only broken two of them, how am I going to free it?’
It was a golden mission with a daunting reward, but at the same time, it seemed like an impossible feat, especially with only ten seconds left to act. There was no time to think too much; the situation was desperate, and the only solution to buy time was to advance in cultivation. With annihilation looming, not even the hero would dare to use his power, as he would be marked by the tribulation.
In three seconds, something inside the whale changed. They quickly felt something strange and noticed the Behemoth’s rune reacting at its core. It was subtle and almost imperceptible, a minimal and fragile force of the soul being maximized; if it weren’t for their divine soul, they would never have noticed.
That was the remnant of the Behemoth’s soul, left inside its rune. When they went to the secret continent and spoke with Gaia, he mentioned that the Behemoth could see the world through them.
At that time, Alm and Bruno were already certain that the primordial beast had left a remnant of its soul inside the rune. Although they could easily remove it, they knew the beast wouldn’t have the strength to bother or do absolutely anything; it just existed there, and through that connection, it could see the world again. For a creature that had been sealed for countless ages, this opportunity was an unbelievable favor that Alm and Bruno were offering.
It was only a slight fluctuation of that remnant soul, lasting only a second before fading completely. ’The Behemoth burned all its remaining energy in this remnant... it wanted to send us a message. We don’t have time to think, it’s seeing everything and knows the situation. We can only trust it now.’
If it were the old Alm and Bruno, they would never place trust in an external being, let alone in a beast that proved to be a true idiot. He definitely wasn’t trustworthy. But... they did something that no one had ever done for him: broke two seals, gave him a glimmer of hope, and allowed him to see the world again through them.
This wasn’t a favor or charity; the Behemoth gave them its bloodline, shared information about the families, and did everything it could to help them. In return, Alm and Bruno gained a lot from the system by helping it. It was a fair trade where both benefited.
That’s precisely why they felt they could trust it. The Behemoth saw what they had experienced and knew what kind of people they were. All the people around the whale were the same; they knew they just needed to support them and be faithful. By placing their faith in them, Alm and Bruno would go to the ends of the earth to meet their expectations. The Behemoth didn’t need to think much or devise plans, something he definitely didn’t know how to do; he just had to pave the way.
Five seconds left.
The whale took a deep breath, and his tattoos pulsed in unison. All the spatial laws of the planet stirred simultaneously. Although they had never studied the complex spatial laws of this universe, thanks to Ruri and Arry, they had basic knowledge. In this ascending planet with fragile laws, they had total mastery over them; manipulating space was simple.
At the same time, all the people in the city were already inside the formation, following the whale’s orders. At that moment, dozens of spatial channels appeared within the formation, and from them emerged two gigantic black wyverns and a small white fuzzy insect with wings.
Kaiyka also appeared right behind them, accompanied by thousands of young cultivators from the four families. Virtually all the elves and Yangtas from the lunar world had come. However, among the humans and dwarves, only those young ones recruited by Ruri and Vuard were present.
As soon as the whale gave the order, Kaiyka had a few seconds to act and ran. From the bodies of the family leaders, she took their leadership tablets and brought them into the spatial world. Using her experience as the previous leader’s wife, in three seconds she activated the formation of the four families and sent a single message to the young ones who remained in the four places.
"The Divine Lord summons you."
This was the emergency message left by the four from the city to those who were approved. There was no time to convince the others, and both Ruri and Vuard had already given them more than one chance; those who stayed chose their fate on their own.

As soon as everyone arrived in the city and the channels closed, the hero’s eyes pulsed in gold, and he smiled sinisterly.
The queen’s will connected to him again, and his total power began to return; all his fear was erased, and his will to kill was ignited to the limit. All the inhabitants of the planet saw the skies vibrating in response to the hero; a golden aura began to emerge again like a macabre and deadly cloud.
The whale just nodded, and space distorted before him. With a step forward, he moved to the extreme west of the planet, where a dense forest covered the entire region. He appeared in the skies and quickly landed on a monolith atop a mountain; precisely there lay the third seal of the Behemoth.
Three seconds remained.
The tattoos shone intensely, the purest Yin and Yang from all over the planet merging with them in their call. On the whale’s forehead, a spatial rune lit up, and all those laws entered its spatial inventory. With the help of the chaos bud and the newly discovered power, it was extremely simpler and more practical to create a rune of the Duality of Shadows law.
One second remained.
The entire planet was already covered by the oppressive golden power, and the ground began to vibrate again. The whale merely moved its self-created rune toward the monolith, and that power silently invaded the center of that seal.
Crack!
A fissure immediately spread throughout the monolith. Suddenly, all the power of the universe and its laws fell as if the heavens were collapsing. Everything was focused on a single point: the whale.
"YOU WILL PAY! THIS WHOLE PLANET WILL PAY! THEY WILL WISH TO DIE AND WILL NEVER SUCCEED!"
The hero’s words were so powerful that the entire planet seemed to convulse. Mortals felt their ears and bodies almost burst, even those on the secret continent were affected; the hero no longer cared about anything except stifling his anger.
A disturbing silence reverberated in all directions, and the smell of blood emanating from his will enveloped every place. Meanwhile, the whale felt its entire body being completely sealed again. Its time was up; now it was completely at the mercy of its karma; all its actions in this universe would reflect its destiny.
It was in that second that the celestial laws and the golden seemed to break. Cracks like spider webs appeared all over the planet’s horizon. The hero widened his eyes, completely confused, then...
ROOOOOOOOOOOOOAR!!!!!
An apocalyptic roar, as powerful as the celestial laws themselves, thundered deafeningly.
The entire planet seemed to petrify. The primordial roar echoed through the cosmos and its laws, and throughout the divine world, all cultivators felt and heard this roar at the same time. Across the universe, the will and power of a primordial beast reverberated. It was its ultimate roar, its maximum fury, its maximum power, the frustration of endless years imprisoned was released at the same time.
And at the same time... that was its final roar...
BOOOM!!!
The entire Pristine planet heard an explosion, and six of them sounded simultaneously. In the planet’s sea, it was as if five atomic mushrooms emerged at the same time, rising into the sky. On the secret continent, a transcendental earthy brown light appeared, and the shadow of a colossal creature appeared, reigning over mortals like a deity.
Alm and Bruno sighed as they felt the result and the choice of that primordial beast. It couldn’t free itself normally... so it chose the only possible path, death, and with it finally achieved liberation.
