406 Most Powerful Beings
"No." Elliot said as he stood up. "Let's leave him hanging for a few days. Keep that black ball in a safe place. For now, let's get some exercise. My clones are having problems dealing with the Red Energy Blytoros. I will go over and deal with it. You guys should also fight some strong enemies and find out the limits of your strength."
"I agree. I need to go back and check on my clan, and I am also very curious how strong I am right now." Monkey King said.
"I will go with you." Jul'Taras said and stood up gracefully.
Monkey King nodded with a smile.
"Good. Jessica, Elise, where will you two go?" Elliot asked.
"I'll go with you!" Jessica Sands jumped up excitedly.
"No, I do-"
"You need me by your side. I can give you live updates as soon as I upgrade the runes." Jessica Sands interrupted Elliot and insisted.
"Two is better than one. You should proceed in pairs." Elise Sands agreed. "I will go and give the hotspots of the known universe a grand tour. Little dul dul probably needs my help. Give me a few of your clones, and I will make sure the situation here stabilizes while you deal with the Wild Energy Crisis."
"Fine." Elliot relented. "But make very sure you obey my instructions! It might get dangerous."
"Okay!" Jessica Sands leapt up happily. "Let's go!"
"No point delaying. I guess we'll part here." Elliot said as he looked around at the other three. "Gather back here again in three days if you can so that we can extort the devil together. But if not, Monkey King, do your best."
"Understood. All the best with Blytoros too." Monkey King said.
"Let us know if you need help with the Wild Energy Blytoros." Elise Sands said.
Elliot nodded.
He then sliced open space, and immediately stepped through into the Shadow Realm with Jessica Sands following closely behind him.
The next chapter of Elliot's grand adventure had begun!
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
A full month had passed ever since Elliot had accidentally ripped open the crack between the Shadow Realm and Wild Space, and allowed the red Wild Energy to enter the Shadow Realm..
The crack had been closed by nature's own regenerative process, and all seemed well once more with the known universe.
Except, all was NOT well. At all.
Wild Energy Blytoros had grown immensely strong in the one month Elliot had spent powering up to half-step Ancient level.
Elliot had increased his strength exponentially, and to compare his current strength to his old self would be like comparing a gallon of water to a small drawing of a water droplet.
Elliot was qualitatively and quantitatively incomparable to his old self!
However, the red-haired Wild Energy Blytoros had completely redesigned and recreated itself too!
It no longer moved about in its humongous humanoid form. Instead, it had opted to take on the form of a red-haired human samurai, complete with ancient-style robes and dual samurai swords.
It was a strange choice, considering that there were no human beings in the Shadow Realm, much less samurai.
Its choice caused Elliot to have a pretty bad premonition about the situation.
"What should we do?" Jessica Sands asked Elliot calmly.
They were peering through a small portal which Elliot had created near his clone, who in turn was spying on Blytoros within one of the life planets within the Shadow Realm.
Blytoros was standing atop a giant hill and was looking down at a huge valley filled with six-armed humanoid life forms with very small heads working diligently on thousands of massive humanoid robots of sorts.
"We need to kill him, of course. But I am just wondering if we need to figure out his intentions and plans first before that." Elliot said in reply.
"It seems pretty obvious to me." Jessica Sands said. "The materials used in the creation of these robots are top notch. This location is also perfectly hidden from the Shadow Realm Gods. If we didn't have your clone tailing him so perfectly from afar, we would have never discovered this lair as well. So all these things point to one single thing.
He's creating powerful robots which would be able to execute his will upon the entire realm."
"But why robots? Why not simply create clones of himself? If he truly had Blytoros' powers, making clones of himself wouldn't be a problem at all. There is either a secret use of these robots that we do not know about, or he has serious limitations in his manipulation of energy.
Both of which seem like very important bits of information." Elliot said contemplatively.
"So we're not killing him now?" Jessica Sands asked.
"I think we should observe. What do you guys think?" Elliot turned around and asked his inner circle.
The ten Dragon Apostles, Wu Kong and Kai were there.
He had also extended the invitation to the two dragons as well, but they had politely declined. With the Dragon Apostles present, they felt completely out of place, and would rather cultivate and power up within Elliot's beast space.
Elliot had been extremely generous with his Ascendant Runes, and he had allowed his beasts to learn them in the hope that they would be able to master them and create the Universe of Runes entirely based on Ascendant Runes as he did.
"His power is rising daily. If we wait for too long, he might pass the threshold and we won't be able to kill him. Even now, his exact power remain unknown, and although I have the utmost confidence in our strength, I do not like this completely unknown factor." Wu Kong said sagely.
"I disagree. Like you, I am completely assured that we are the most powerful beings in existence. AND because of that, I say we wait until we discover his schemes. With our strength, killing him later would be as easy as killing him now." Dragon Apostle Deathwing said.
"I think we should kill him now. Like you, I am completely assured that we are the most powerful beings im existence. AND because of that, we should just kill him right here and now, and then the Elder Gods of the Shadow Realm, and then pay Wild Space a visit to kill the others like him." Dragon Apostle Purity repeated and twisted Dragon Apostle Deathwing's argument with a chuckle, and caused him to glower at her.
