Chapter 1164: Chapter 464: The High Priest of Destiny, Surrounding and Killing Jack Clark Chapter 1164: Chapter 464: The High Priest of Destiny, Surrounding and Killing Jack Clark Thousands of kilometers away from the Sky Curtain Battlefield, atop a black mountain summit behind the Purgatory Family’s base, a stream aglow with seven-color radiance flowed, emitting a dream-like light.
Sitting above the Seven-color Stream was a shriveled and ancient Purgatory True Demon, so old that even teeth had fallen out, with an aura feeble as a candle in the wind.
At this moment, the elderly Purgatory True Demon slightly lowered its head, its murky gaze quietly observing the flowing Seven-color Stream beneath, seemingly trying to penetrate the stream to see something beyond.
At the edge of a distant cliff, Emperor Diorus sat atop the spiked head of an ancient creature, his oppressive aura restrained, his expression cold and indifferent as he waited.
Suddenly, the ancient Purgatory True Demon slowly raised its head, its voice hoarse, “Emperor Diorus, that human has left the Human Race territorial area.”
“Finally emerged, has he?”
Emperor Diorus’s eyes burned with endless dark flames, filled with terrifying majesty as he spoke in a deep voice, “Has that human reached the Frontline Battlefield?”
The ancient Purgatory True Demon slowly shook its head, its voice hoarse, “On the frontline battlefield, I have not seen the destiny threads related to that human.”
This ancient Purgatory True Demon was quite special; it was the High Priest of Destiny of the Purgatory Empire, its cultivation focused on ‘Destiny,’ ranking only below the two Demon Gods under Emperor Diorus.
Destiny is elusive and intangible, a special power system obtained by the Purgatory Family after they annihilated a civilization, integrated into their bloodline inheritance.
Purgatory True Demons capable of awakening the Power of Destiny were extremely rare, each inevitably becoming a High Priest of a Demon God Empire, worshipped and cultivated by the power of an entire nation.
But destiny is unpredictable, and every glimpse into it exacted an irreversible toll, so unless it involved a crisis of the empire, Emperor Diorus would not call upon its services.
Emperor Diorus’s voice was deep, “If Darren Callum has left the Human Race area without entering the Frontline Battlefield, it seems the higher-ups from his clan are aware that we are targeting him.”
“This person must have ventured deep into the Vast World through the Human Race’s Outer Development Department for cultivation and to explore relics. He probably won’t reappear on the frontlines until he’s made a breakthrough to the Grand Demon King level.”
“Shame, our pawns at the Divine Gods Alliance were destroyed, and we can’t mobilize forces to track Darren Callum’s whereabouts. Thus, it falls to you, High Priest, to take on this arduous task.”
Emperor Diorus had long anticipated that every race had protective ‘mechanisms’ to shield epoch-defining geniuses like this.
After all, at the Heavenly Abyss Battlefield, Emperor Diorus had twice attempted to suppress and kill that monstrous talent from the human race.
Yet as long as you enter the Vast World, I have ways to find you, Emperor Diorus spoke indifferently, “High Priest, can you see exactly where he is?”
The High Priest slowly shook its head, its voice hoarse, “The destiny thread of this human is very vague and constantly changing. Earlier, even after burning a thousand years of my lifespan, I only saw that he was not within the range of the Human Race.”
“However, I have captured a wisp of his Destiny Aura. As soon as his destiny undergoes another fluctuation, I will be able to pinpoint him instantly.”
As he spoke, the High Priest extended a black, sharp finger into the void, drawing out from the Seven-color Stream two strands of golden light that formed the names Jack Clark and Darren Callum in the air, emitting a dim radiance.
After doing this, the High Priest’s aura weakened once again, seeming even older, his body even radiating a decaying scent as if he were on the verge of death.
“It’s just that, your majesty, directly observing his location through destiny will likely draw substantial backlash from the Supreme Destiny,” the High Priest warned.
“Don’t worry, High Priest, I have prepared for this. Here is a whisker from a Time Dragon, its Time Power should grant you an additional five thousand years of life,” Emperor Diorus assured.
Presenting a dragon whisker over ten meters long and several dozen centimeters thick, floating in the air like a transparent ribbon, it gleamed with a fantastical and splendid radiance.
Emperor Diorus spoke decisively, “That human’s talent is too horrific. He must be suppressed before he reaches Demon God Level, or else our clan wil face a terrifying enemy.”
Seeing the dragon whisker imbued with Time Power, a smile appeared on the ancient face of the High Priest.
Glimpsing just a trace of destiny had burnt a thousand years of its lifespan; the upcoming vision to pinpoint the target’s location would likely consume two thousand years of its lifespan.
With the remaining two thousand years of Time Power, its life expectancy should return to around six thousand years.
“Rest assured, your majesty, for the eternal standing of our clan in this world, this old one would burn away all life to find him,” the High Priest then marveled.
“To have mastered four Higher-order and one Supreme Law upon breaking through to Myth, a prodigy of such talent has only been matched by our Ancestor in the annals of our clan.”
“Such a talented being from different races must be eradicated in the cradle.”
“This human must be a unique entity where all the human Luck has converged. Killing him would be tantamount to severing the last thread of Luck for the Human Race, cutting off their future.”
Emperor Diorus nodded slowly, “Indeed.”
In the eyes of Emperor Diorus and other Demon God Level Powerhouses, Jack Clark’s combat strength and cultivation speed were so terrifying; aside from his innate talent, it must have been attributed to accumulating the entire Human Race’s Luck.
In such a state, he could turn any peril into safety, his cultivation progress soaring, and if he entered a relic, he would receive Inheritance. He might even stumble upon God-level Resources simply by walking down a road.
Otherwise, how could a mere indigenous being break through to the Mythical-level in just ten Sun Wheels?
And just as Emperor Diorus was preparing to take personal action to suppress and kill Jack Clark…
