Lex was sitting in his room, casually sipping a cappuccino, observing his Inn. Setting up the three bases had cost him 30,000 MP, and he deposited another 220,000 MP in setting the stage for the remainder of the games. That 250,000 MP expenditure wiped out most of the accumulation over the past few days, but fortunately, the truth was quite different. This was a direct result of the many soldiers and beasts at the Inn. Even though Lex had notified the Jotun leaders that the zombies would likely…-

Alexander and Helen drove all the way to a private airport, far away from any town or city. It was not the kind of place you could accidentally stumble into. After confirming his identity, the two of them were led to a hangar with a military helicopter. Getting in the pilot’s seats, the two of them hurried through the takeoff protocols and left. Alexander was naturally trained to pilot all vehicles so that he could deal with any situation, and Helen, who had been trained to be a wife to a cultivator,…

Helen stood silently in the soft, dim light. For the greater part of an hour, she had not moved an inch. She only watched the teenager as he meditated. Initially, she could barely see anything, but as her eyes adjusted to the darkness, she found herself mesmerized by the intense, focused look on Alexander’s face. It was not the look of someone searching for peace in meditation, but that of a warrior preparing for combat. Right now, Helen was in Alexander’s private security bunker. She had been with…

Lex’s brain went into overdrive. Within less than a single second, he tried to find various solutions. He tried blocking the devils from entering, simply because it was the easiest solution. Yet before he began the event, he had to decide on its rules and format. Everything that happened was based on those rules. Let alone Lex, even the system could not randomly change the rules once the event had started. Since the parameters of ‘anyone from that planet’ had been defined – albeit a loose…

The reward of a new hidden realm was extremely enticing to every party present. The potential of a reward the Innkeeper said was even more valuable directly affected everyone’s plans. The lazy sloth that originally could not be bothered at all with the Midnight Games suddenly returned to Nibiru and, for the first time, made his presence known worldwide. There was no drowsiness in his eyes as he flew over the various continents of the planet, scanning all beings with his spiritual senses. Just getting…

Whether they be called minor realms, hidden realms, secret realms, pocket dimensions or anything else, the concept was the same. It was basically a separate pocket of space, disconnected from the main universe. Sometimes they formed naturally, and in some cases, a very high leveled cultivator could open them up on their own. These separate dimensions had their own ecosystem and existed in their own sustained balance. Sometimes, this ecosystem was extremely hazardous and could not support life. But in…

Once the topic of the soul was touched upon, both Leo and John became interested. Leo because he himself was looking for ways to stabilize his soul, while John because it was such a rare topic for low level cultivators. Even at higher realms, while it was more important to take note of, rarely would anyone specifically focus on it. Harry sent John the MP, which prompted him to wake from his stupor. “If you’re interested in the soul, you’re very lucky to have met me. Few people are as knowledgeable…

Soon after, the comedian went offstage, and the YouTuber went on. Similar to her last performance, she sat on stage alone on a stool. Her excitement was clearly visible on her face, though Lex did not think she cared for the award that would be granted to the entire planet. Clearly, whoever had brought her had promised her other prizes should she manage to get first place. After taking a few moments to calm herself, she began her performance. This time she sang the song ‘A thousand years’. Her voice…

The comedian’s status was quite interesting to Lex. Name: James Brent Age: 21 Sex: Male Cultivation Details: Mortal Species: Human Midnight Inn Prestige Level: 1 Bloodline: Incubus Remarks: Ensure that he does not elope with any Inn staff! It will be too embarrassing! Right off the bat, the first thing that stood out to Lex was that James’ species was identified as only human, but he had the bloodline of an Incubus. He did not know if actual Incubi were different in any way from what he knew…

When the performance began, there was not much to it. Rezin walked around the stage in circles, the liquid that made up his body bobbing back and forth as if in an invisible container. One moment it was as if it had a complete head, but as the liquid receded, it seemed as if it was just a neck. The liquid did not spill, nor did it move around outside the clear border that defined the jaguar’s shape. Had the jaguar not been moving, Lex could have mistaken it for the most clear glass container. Yet it was…
