My Celestial Ascension

Chapter 452 Getting Close The End



Chapter 452 Getting Close The End

"What kind of monster was that?" Yuan continued to stare in the direction where the monster had been standing a moment ago before disappearing. He appeared confused, as he hadn't seen such a monster before. He was also very curious about how that monster managed to create a portal, flee immediately, and completely disappear.

'Whatever monster that was…it was powerful! Also very intelligent,' Yuan pondered, a serious look on his face. The monster had been able to hide its presence, observe the battle from a distance, and command all the monsters to attack the people. Surely, a monster of this intelligence couldn't be ordinary.

Meanwhile, his wives slaughtered every last monster that was trying to flee from the battlefield. When they looked at Yuan, they noticed he was staring in a particular direction with a pondering look on his face, seemingly deep in thought.

Anna approached him with a smile on her face, placed her hand gently on his shoulder, and asked, "Dear, why are you staring in that direction so seriously? And what are you thinking about so deeply?"

"Darling," Grace also placed her hand on his shoulder, "did you sense something dangerous in that direction?"

Yuan looked at Anna and Grace and saw their worried expressions. Then he glanced at his other wives, who also appeared concerned about him. He couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.

"Well, I noticed a powerful monster in that direction, observing us from a distance. I suspect it is the reason behind the sudden ambush from the Corrupted Monsters," Yuan said after taking a deep breath, still looking in the direction where the strange monster had been standing a moment ago.

Lily's eyes lit up upon hearing this, and she said, "Then let's go and capture that monster. I also want to see how strong it is compared to these weaklings."

Yuan smiled strangely upon hearing his sister's words and shook his head. "Sadly, that monster fled the moment it noticed I was looking at him. So, we can't capture or kill it at the moment," he said, a helpless smile on his face.

"I see… too bad the monster ran away. If it hadn't, I would've beaten the crap out of that ugly monster," Lily said with a wide, vicious grin. Then her eyes suddenly lit up again. "How about we chase the monster and kill it together?"

"Yeah, I don't think it went too far from here," Grace added, nodding at Lily, her excitement evident in her sparkling eyes.

"Sorry to disappoint you guys, but we won't be able to catch it since the monster disappeared after entering a portal," Yuan replied, scratching the back of his head. He then explained to them what had happened when he noticed the monster using his divine sense. After hearing his explanation, his wives' countenances turned extremely surprised.

"I can't believe that such a powerful creature was watching us fight against the Corrupted Monsters from such a close distance, and yet we failed to notice it," Anna muttered in disbelief. She couldn't believe that with her cultivation, she had been oblivious to the existence of such a powerful creature.

"I also failed to notice it. That monster was probably very intelligent to successfully hide its presence from us, cultivators!" Grace's face turned very serious and cold, almost as though she was going to kill someone to vent her frustration.

"Don't worry, I have a feeling that we will encounter that monster very soon," Yuan reassured them with a smile.

"Yuan! That was awesome! I can't believe you guys are so strong!"

At this moment, Yuan and his wives heard Valeria's loud and excited voice from behind. As they turned around, they saw Valeria, Mireya, and Sylvia approaching them with wide grins on their faces. Valeria didn't waste a single second and threw herself at Yuan like a maiden in love for the first time, hugging him tightly and pressing her seductive body against him.

"What was that attack you used earlier?! It was so powerful and highly destructive that it obliterated everything in its path!" Sylvia also joined the hug, unable to contain her curiosity about the attack Yuan had used earlier to erase half of the monsters in a single powerful strike.

"Haha~! Think of it as my signature technique," Yuan replied, smiling.

"If you don't want to say it, don't say it. Hmph!" Sylvia pouted in dissatisfaction at Yuan's vague answer.

A few seconds later, King Richard and representatives from the other nations, except for Arthur, approached Yuan and thanked him for killing every last Corrupted Monster and saving the lives of many people.

"As the King of the Windfall Kingdom, I, Richard Windfall, thank you for saving me from getting killed by those vile creatures, Yuan."

"We owe you so much, Yuan, and I don't know how to repay such kindness… I'm really ashamed that I cannot repay such a favor in the same way." King Richard slightly bowed his head toward Yuan and his wives, his words sincere and heartfelt.

"There is no need to thank us, King Richard. And don't bow your head to us, after all, you're a king," Anna said with a smile, appreciating King Richard's sincerity.

"I... I understand," King Richard replied, smiling awkwardly at Anna's words before turning to Yuan. "But still, I am very thankful for your support and help in eradicating the monsters. Please, let me know if you ever need my assistance in the future. I'll do anything within my power to help. Don't hesitate to reach out."

Yuan and his wives could see the seriousness in King Richard's eyes and smiled. "For now, let's get out of here. There are no more corrupted monsters nearby, and most people have lost a significant amount of their mana fighting those vile creatures," Yuan suggested, noticing the exhausted looks on the faces of the people around them. He guessed they wouldn't be able to maintain their mana skin for much longer, probably only another two to three hours.

"That's very true indeed," King Richard nodded. "However, we don't know how long it will take us to get out of the miasma. Thankfully, we have enough mana-replenishing potions to last for five to six hours."

"In that case, we shouldn't waste any time and should resume our march immediately," Yuan said.

"Well, let's resume the march then. But before that, I'd like to recover the bodies of our fallen comrades and later return them to their families," King Richard added.

"I fully support your decision, King Richard," Yuan replied with a smile, and then he and his wives left the battlefield.

Following that, King Richard ordered his men to recover the bodies of their fallen comrades, storing them in specially prepared magic pouches to return them to their families later.

It was the same magic pouch he used to store dead bodies before. The good thing about this magic pouch is that it prevents the corpse from rotting inside it, keeping it fresh for almost two months. After two months, the corpse would slowly start to decompose inside the magic pouch.

Once the corpses of the fallen comrades were stored inside the magic pouch, King Richard announced that they would resume their march shortly. A few minutes later, they began marching toward the end of the miasma, with King Richard leading everyone as he possessed the magic compass.

Meanwhile, Mireya, Sylvia, and Valeria bombarded Yuan with questions about his strange yet extremely powerful technique and about cultivation, as they were very curious after witnessing the strength of the cultivators.

Yuan shook his head at their questions and smiled helplessly, unsure of which question to answer first, feeling overwhelmed by their inquiries.

"Let's just say that the technique I used earlier is the most powerful one I have learned so far. However, I have even more powerful techniques that I haven't learned yet because they are very difficult to master with my current level of cultivation," Yuan replied with a smile. "Thus, I haven't learned those techniques yet."

"You have techniques that are many times more powerful than the one you used earlier? This is unbelievable!" All three of them muttered in disbelief, looking at him with wide-open eyes, seemingly speechless.

"That's right, but the technique I used earlier was special and can't be compared with other techniques of the same rank."

Mireya, Sylvia, and Valeria stared at Yuan with surprise, never having imagined their husband would be so mysterious and powerful.

Sometime later, the thick miasma started to thin gradually, and after a while, they could roughly see the trees and various plants on the other side of the miasma.

"Everyone! Keep moving, we're getting closer to the end of the miasma, and we will shortly get out of it!"

Suddenly, King Richard's loud and clear voice resounded, causing everyone to focus their gazes ahead, and smiles appeared on their faces as they saw the other side of the miasma.

"Finally! Finally, we're about to get out of this damn miasma!"

Seeing that they were getting closer to the end of the miasma, people became very energetic and began to move forward a bit faster than before, as if their exhaustion had suddenly vanished.
