SUPREME ARCH-MAGUS

Lily, from the Seventh Realm, had already arrived, leading a contingent of 7,000 disciples. To train all other disciples into one formation and look over the arrangements of the formation, she came personally on her own.

Meanwhile, in the northern lands of the Blue Planet, preparations were well underway at the War God Temple. The temple, an ancient structure of immense power and mystery, is the target site for the gathering.

The 13 miles around the temple is the sacred ground where no one was allowed until the day of Immortal beast spirit gathering. So, all the disciples were making camps around this perimeter. Stay updated with empire

The Wizard Association's elders had mobilized their forces, transforming the temple grounds into a sprawling encampment capable of housing thousands of disciples. Rows of tents and magical castles lined the perimeter.

But the occupants from various realms preparing for the trial were shifted to the 9 realm association palace. To maintain the secrecy of Lotus Chakra formation Jason spent a lot of wealth to accommodate all 70,000 disciples and the servants in one place.

Five days before the Immortal Beast Spirit Gathering was set to commence, a new presence arrived on the Blue Planet, one that caused a ripple of awe and fear to spread among those already present.

An enormous, luxurious moving treasure palace appeared at the teleportation point, its size dwarfing everything around it. The palace gleamed in the sunlight, its walls adorned with intricate carvings of mythical beasts and ancient symbols.

At its head was the emblem of the Golden Whale, a symbol of the Nine Realms association.

Inside the treasure palace, Simen, the son of the Nine Realms Association head, stood by a massive window, his sharp eyes taking in the landscape of the Blue Planet. Despite the grandeur of the view, a sneer played on his lips as he stared down at the vast land below.

"Hmmh… such a tiny planet," he muttered, his voice filled with disdain. "And yet, it held the secret to change the fate of the Nine Realms. How amusing."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

His words carried the weight of arrogance, a reflection of his upbringing in one of the most powerful families in existence. The soldiers and servants accompanying him knelt as one, their heads bowed in deference as the treasure palace began its movement toward the northern lands.

The palace was heading for the War God Temple, where Simen intended to oversee the final preparations for the Lotus Chakra formation.

As the night deepened, The Wizard Association's elders moved through the War God Temple, ensuring that everything was in place for the gathering. Powerful barriers were erected around the temple, designed to keep out those who had no place in the trials.

The skies above were filled with magical formations, each one carefully crafted to ensure that the event would proceed without interference.

During the day of Immortal beast spirit gathering, the people with greater cultivation than Grand master magus stage will automatically be thrown out by war god temple spirit.

In the distance, the treasure palace with the 9 realms association Golden Whale symbol stood like a monument. Simon watched as his attendants prepared the Lotus Chakra formation, his mind already turning to the strategies he would employ in the days to come.

Back in the Devil Mountain Forest, Kent continued to fight, unaware of the gathering storm on the Blue Planet. His fists were bloodied, his body battered and bruised, but he refused to give in.

The beasts pressed in from all sides, their numbers relentless, but Kent's will was unbreakable.

He had come too far to be defeated now, and with every ounce of strength he had left, he fought on.

7th Realm,

Quinn Family Manor…

Thea stood before the towering gates of the Queen Mother's personal castle, her heart heavy with a mixture of apprehension and resignation. The summon had been unexpected, but not entirely surprising.

The Queen Mother, Soya, had always wanted to ask Thea about things that happened on the blue planet. With Lily gone, Thea had become an easy target for Soya's scorn.

As the grand doors swung open, Thea was led into the opulent throne room, where the Queen Mother sat surrounded by her servants. Thea stepped forward, bowing respectfully before the woman who is the reason for everything.

Soya's lips curled into a cold, mocking smile. "Thea, my dear, how good of you to come. I trust you've been well?" The words dripped with insincerity, and Thea knew better than to respond with anything more than a polite nod.

"I've summoned you here because I've been thinking about your grandmother, that is my mother-in-law," Soya continued, her tone casual but with an undercurrent of menace. "Tell me, Thea, what do you know about the child she protected? Surely, you must have some knowledge."

Thea's heart skipped a beat at the mention of her grandmother. The memories were painful, but she kept her expression neutral, her voice steady as she replied, "I only lived with my grandmother, My lady. I don't know anything about a child."

Soya's eyes narrowed, clearly unsatisfied with the answer. "Oh? Are you sure? I find it hard to believe that you wouldn't know anything about such a significant detail. Perhaps you're just forgetting?"

Thea remained silent, her mind focused on keeping her emotions in check. She knew that any sign of weakness would only embolden Soya further.

The Queen Mother's patience began to wear thin. "Speak, Thea! Don't play coy with me. I want to know everything."

"I've told you everything I know," Thea replied quietly, her voice barely above a whisper. "There was no child. Only my grandmother and I."

Soya's eyes flashed with anger, but after a moment, she waved a hand dismissively. "Useless. I should have known you wouldn't be of any help. Get out of my sight. You're as worthless same like that old lady."

Thea bowed once more, swallowing the bitter retort that threatened to escape her lips. Without another word, she turned and left the throne room, the sound of Soya's laughter echoing in her ears as she walked away.
