After successfully defeating the Eternal commander and sealing multiple rifts, the protagonist is granted the elusive Saint Advancement Quest. While the first objective of claiming a planet's essence has already been met, a challenging new mission appears requiring the defeat of a mysterious individual named Defender Aurora within ten days. Meanwhile, the Order of Absolute continues to demonstrate its overwhelming power across the galaxy, and the protagonist begins constructing a massive, permanent spatial gate to link Abor directly to their home world.

Violet runes shimmered across the barren surface, casting a pulsing glow as waves battered the small island. Under my direct supervision, the complex teleportation array bloomed into existence, its vast structure gradually aligning perfectly. Overhead, the horizon retreated into darkness as heavy storm clouds massed above the vast expanse of Abor's waters.

After examining the arrays for several minutes, I shifted a few exterior runic paths, finally releasing a bated breath before standing tall.

"That should hold for now."

With my Right to Insight, every individual rune manifested as a web of living currents and connections; I carefully traced these patterns, channeling the essence required to sustain their operation.

Time slipped away unnoticed.

A fresh cluster of runes clicked into place. The stabilizing anchors were finally secure.

Provided the subsequent set of spatial conduits integrated correctly, the installation would successfully anchor a direct gate to Vaythos without failing under the immense burden of interstellar distance.

Midway through preparing the next adjustment, a voice breached my focus.

"Hey."

Looking up, I blinked.

Steve and North stood poised near the array's perimeter, observing the luminous runes that coated the island floor.

"They have been waiting quite a while," Steve remarked, gesturing skyward with his thumb.

Only then did I notice the six towering presences suspended high above the island. Despite the cloud cover, their auras were unmistakable; the atmosphere warped around them, charged with currents of lightning, wind, shadow, gravity, sealing forces, and life energy.

I straightened, rolling my shoulders to loosen the tension.

"Ah… right."

A faint smile touched my lips.

"My apologies. I got lost in the runes."

North dropped her gaze to the array once more.

"How much is finished?"

"Around eighty percent."

Her eyes widened in surprise.

"That quickly?"

"The foundation is solid now; the remaining work is mostly fine-tuning."

Steve stooped briefly to inspect one of the colossal symbols carved into the bedrock before rising again.

"And once the work is complete?"

"A direct gate to Vaythos."

Steve whistled softly.

"That is... convenient. It will simplify things considerably in the future."

North nodded thoughtfully, turning her attention back toward the heavens.

"They have been hovering there for quite a long time."

I followed the direction of her gaze.

The six summons remained stationary, suspended hundreds of meters above the island, appearing like distant stars obscured by the clouds.

"Very well," I said quietly.

Leaving Steve and North by the glowing island's edge, I stepped away from the runes and drifted slowly into the sky.

In mere seconds, I ascended through the lower cloud deck, reaching the altitude where the six figures awaited.

They parted slightly to accommodate me.

I came to a halt directly before them.

"So," I said calmly, "how are the rifts progressing?"

Aurora spoke first.

"Generally well. We have successfully sealed two of them, though I have noticed an uptick in the forces the Eternals are pushing through. It seems they realize we are systematically targeting them now."

Silver gave a slight nod.

"Their commanders are indeed pivoting. They have begun fortifying the larger rifts with tougher abominations."

Ragnar grinned broadly.

"Which only makes the skirmishes more interesting."

"That was expected," I noted.

Lyrate tilted her head slightly.

"Your reputation is currently outpacing the rifts themselves. Most galactic factions are actively avoiding those sectors now."

This was the precise outcome I intended.

"How is your strength developing?" I asked.

Aurora’s lightning pulsated gently as she offered her reply.

"These constant skirmishes are pushing our laws further. The Eternals provide excellent training."

Ragnar rolled his shoulders with a grunt.

"And smashing their monsters never loses its appeal."

Ash remained silent, though several faint sealing runes rippled in the air momentarily before fading away.

I observed the six of them in silence.

The power emanating from them had grown significantly over the past weeks. Persistent combat against the Eternal forces had accelerated their growth rate well beyond what standard Cultivation could offer.

For a moment, the breeze flowed soundlessly through the clouds surrounding us.

Then, Ragnar spoke up again.

"So… precisely why were we waiting up here?"

I offered a subtle smile.

"Simply a small test."

Six pairs of eyes locked onto me.

"The rule is straightforward."

I gestured to the empty air where I stood.

"You win the moment you force me to vacate this specific position."

Ragnar’s grin stretched wider instantly.

"That is all?"

"That is all."

Aurora arched an eyebrow.

"All six of us at once?"

"Correct."

For a brief moment, a profound silence fell. A subtle silver luminescence flickered across my frame before I clamped it down.

"Begin."

They did not waste a single heartbeat.

Knight moved first. Shadows stretched unnaturally as the nearby clouds darkened, folding inward before collapsing entirely. Knight stepped through the void, his signature vanishing from the sky as he blended into the very atmosphere.

Lyrate launched her assault simultaneously.

Lacking ground to summon roots, she improvised. Vast cords of life energy erupted from her palms, weaving into colossal, twisting vines that spanned the clouds like arterial rivers. Mid-air, she forged entire trees of condensed essence, their massive trunks hurtling toward me like javelins.

Aurora followed instantly after. Lightning cleaved the sky.

A bolt descended from the storm above with the intensity of a falling star, striking exactly where I hovered. The heavens were washed in blinding white radiance.

Then, the attacks collided with something unseen.

Thousands of violet shields materialized around me, instantly formed from condensed essence. Each unit hummed with power as it rotated in a frantic defensive shell. Lyrate’s living constructs shattered against the barrier, while Aurora’s lightning sprayed across the surfaces in jagged arcs.

I remained utterly motionless.

The essence obeyed my will entirely. Every particle of ambient energy in the atmosphere felt like an extension of my limbs.

Far below, Steve braced against the light while watching from the island.

"Well, that is definitely new."

North observed the spiraling weapon formation with keen interest.

The conflict intensified without pause.

Silver took his turn next.

His form arched upward, erupting into a giant bird; his wingspan unleashed a roar of wind laws. He ascended higher, whipping a savage tornado into existence before raining down a volley of crimson beams.

The clouds incinerated into a deep red.

The beams slammed into my spinning essence barrier, detonating against the Constructs in violent bursts of heat.

Before the smoke cleared, Ragnar charged.

Gravity buckled around him as he vaulted through the air, the space beneath him warping from his sheer acceleration. His massive club swung down like a falling comet, carrying enough momentum to level a mountain range.

The collision struck my defensive formation, and the sky exploded under the pressure. A shockwave rippled through the underlying clouds as his blow met the barrier.

I elevated a single hand. A massive wall of condensed essence stabilized instantly. When Ragnar’s club slammed into the barrier, the thunderous impact sent tremors through the air for kilometers.

Ragnar’s wide grin remained.

Before he could follow up, space rippled beside me.

Knight emerged from the shadows just behind my shoulder, his blade sliding forward in perfect silence, bolstered by spatial distortion that pushed the strike beyond normal limits.

I leaned my head back slightly.

A thin, solid veil of essence manifested precisely where his blade would have passed. The weapon scraped harmlessly against the barrier before Knight slipped once more into the surrounding darkness.

At that exact instant, Ash made his move.

Black sealing runes saturated the sky.

Hundreds of intricate formations unfolded across the heavens like star charts, expanding at high speed until they began to stifle the ambient essence around me. Chains composed of pure sealing energy lashed forward, attempting to bind my active constructs.

"Intriguing."

For a fleeting second, the surrounding essence resisted my command as Ash’s sealing laws clashed with the environment. I felt a silver glow flicker against my body before I suppressed it entirely."}
