The armies retreated and regrouped, they were greatly shaken by their encounter with Naledi.

However they weren't the only ones, the old monsters above the world had grim faces. " Another divine grade." Whispered a sovereign of the Ahnunaki.

This was the fourth divine grade found in this era, so many possessing the divine flame was a sign of an upcoming calamity.

" Should we send our armies against her as well?" Dawn, one of the three sovereigns of humanity asked.

The others shook their heads. " No, she poses less of a threat to us than the beast king.

You can see it yourself, how he had managed to gather the spiritual beast of this world together.

Should he be allowed to grow, this universe will be ruled by him, we cannot allow that." These old beings understood the threat posed by the beast race more than anybody.

The biggest threat about their king wasn't his overwhelming might, it was his ability to influence the demonic beasts.

A single command from a sovereign beast king can cause beast tides in every planet, even they would struggle with that.

It should be known that demonic beasts are the most numerous in the entire universe. These people who the demonic beast race had more sovereigns than all other races combined.

If a being that can command all of them rise, it would be a nightmare for all of them. Unbeknownst to them, even Ved the holder of the king's authority didn't understand the power he held.

He knew spiritual beasts can influence demonic beasts a little but he had no idea what he can do with his authority.

The power in his grasp was wasted but it wouldn't be long before he learnt. Speaking of which, he was currently standing with his own people.

Suddenly a human approached him from behind, she stood next to him looking as tiny as an insect in comparison.

" Hi, you probably don't remember me, my name is Lucy, I'm..." " I remember you." He cut her off.

She nodded, " I want to apologise for my behaviour the last we met, I believed..." She didn't continue.

" I just wanted to apologise." He nodded, " Water under the bridge." She left afterwards. Angelica and Fern went into seclusion as well right after.

Ved stationed a few aquatic spiritual beasts to keep watch on the armies outside and occasionally he received intel on what they were doing.

Currently they were trying to bring in more of their armies as the previous ones were almost wiped out by Naledi.

He also learnt some of the weaker races were not here anymore, the remaining few who survived retreated to their home worlds after that defeat.

Apparently they weren't very eager to deal with a world that had a divine holder. Ved drove all that to the back of his mind.

It will take them some time to break the barrier and enter this minor world anyways, for now he was more focused on his people who were about to undergo tribulation.

White was the first to have hers, the tribulation was terrifying but nowhere near his, Pulse and Avery had theirs four days later followed by Evergreen.

By the month's end his army had gained over a dozen more projection realm fighters. Unfortunately three failed and died to the tribulation.

This war killed a lot of his people but he also couldn't deny that it tempered them.

Without it, it would've taken them much longer to reach this level. There were still others in seclusion like Gentlywind though.

She wasn't exactly a fighter like her husband so it made sense why she would be slower. However she came out before her tribulation which confused Iron Fist.

" I'm pregnant." She told them. The mood turned a bit more light with those news but everybody was still tense.

Ved decided to check his status.

Name: Ved Zhakrii

Species: Iron Sky Dragon (113 years/45 000 years)(58m/100m) Mid Legendary grade

Rank: 5

Evolution points:( 31.34/ 120)

Another good thing about this war, his evolution points were growing incredibly fast, when the war fully breaks out, it will be even faster.

' At this rate, it won't be long before I reach rank 6.' he thought with a satisfied smile. " Mxm." He heard Manas snort.

' What?' he asked with annoyance. " I'm just laughing at your foolishness, won't be long before you reach rank 6, if it was that easy, manifestation realm beings would be running around everywhere.

Disregarding the limit of the world, your will is nowhere near being saturated enough to fully manifest an image.

The day you manage to touch the physical world with your image, literally, then you can say that."

Her words poured cold water on him, he now remembered the conditions needed to reach manifestation realm and frankly, he hadn't met the most important one.

Reaching that level would require him to slowly turn his image physical piece by piece which will take time and he hadn't even started.

He sighed, ' At least I won't have to worry about evolution points.' he tried to consolidate himself.

----------------------------------------------------------

In the new Ice Lotus City, a group of people were sitting around a table facing each other.

" She is one of your own, your leader." Growled a man in a fancy suit. " So, were we there, did you see us telling her what to do?" Retorted Cat with anger.

" Okay everybody calm down." Aira tried to lower the rising heat in the room. " However I agree with Cat, Naledi maybe our friend but she is her own person and she left us as you know.

It's unfair of you blame us for her actions, besides the Naledi we know would never attack anybody without reason."

The people from the Dawn empire growled in anger however they couldn't refute the logic.

They preached fairness so they had to uphold it, at least Infront of the Librarian who was acting as the witness to this meeting.

They didn't fear the librarian as they considered denizens of this world weak but people with abilities like her could casually tarnish your reputation.

Her vessel can teleport anywhere so pinning her down would be hard and she can easily spread the information about this meeting.

" Fine, however it's undeniable that she is your friend and as such, you will have to do for us one thing, otherwise we will hunt her down and hold her responsible for her actions."

The moment he said that, the entire room shook as an aura that filled the air with the smell of alcohol shook the air.

Cat grinned, she had just been promoted to rank 5 and was itching for a fight. Her mother put her hand on her shoulder.

" Calm down sweetie." Although Cathra calmed her daughter down, she was furious as well.

But unlike her muscle brains daughter she can see the bigger picture and knew they were outgunned.

" So what do you want from us?" Aira asked. The man smiled. " I want you to help us take down somebody."

They all frowned at those words.
