Chapter 3898
Though Fifth Stage Lords were not invincible by any means, they were nonetheless terrifying. In the outside world,
just one of them would be able to wipe out lower-ranked universes. Now, they were defeated by a single gust of
wind.
Upon crashing to the ground, they spurted out a mouthful of blood. Before they could even react, the beast
charged toward them and tried to trample them with its humongous feet. Seeing this, they hurriedly made their
escape.
Seeing that their combined strength could not even scratch the beast, Lord Samsong paid no heed to the fleeing
Lords and hurriedly made his way toward the Light of Acme. He wanted to seize this opportunity to take away the
Light of Acme.
Rumble!

A fierce battle erupted.
The beast could attack its enemies using any part of its body —the horn, tail, and even the scales. With no means to
fight back, the Lords hurriedly fled.
James, on the other hand, remained where he stood. Upon seeing Lord Samsong charging toward the Light of
Acme, his body flashed, and he hurriedly gave chase. Seeing that James was upon him, Lord Samsong raised the
sword in his hand and slashed. A radiant Sword Energy materialized, carrying a Nine-Power Macrocosm Power that
could
potentially destroy anything in its path.
Fearful, James dodged the attack.
Boom!
As the Sword Energy struck elsewhere, the void shattered. A huge fissure appeared in the void, and the scenery
seemed out of an apocalyptic movie.
"Samsong, are you going to seize the Light of Acme for yourself?"

James' face darkened as he said coldly, "We agreed to work together before coming here. Yet, here you are
abandoning your teammates to their fate and taking the Light of Acme for yourself!"
"Stall for time, Forty-nine! I will meet up with you once I obtain the Light of Acme. When that happens, we will leave
this place together and research the Light of Acme.
Together, we will reach the Acme Rank."
Knowing that James was difficult to deal with, Samsong kept things civilized.
Before James could respond, the beast turned around and spurted out a materialized beam.
Samsong and James swiftly dodged the attack. The former paid no heed to the beast’s attack and immediately
appeared before the Light of Acme. With his immense power, he forcibly stored the Light of Acme away and turned
to leave, leaving James and the others to their fates.
James tried to give chase but was entangled in a fight against the beast. Hence, he had no choice but to come to

blows. He catalyzed Chaos Power and summoned his full strength. Waves of Sword Energy materialized and struck
the beast. However, the beast was unscathed. As the battle progressed, he was struck by the beast's attack and
suffered injuries. Meanwhile, the other Fifth Stage Lords had already retreated to the rear. Though the battle only
lasted for a short duration, many Lords perished at the beast's hand.
"Dammit, he’s strong!"
James was stunned.
As he slashed with the Demon-Slayer Sword, tens of thousands of Sword Energy materialized and formed a Sword
Net that struck the beast. Although the waves of Sword Energy were a direct hit, the beast remained unscathed.
James knew that his power was far from enough to defeat the beast. At that moment, he thought about escaping.
After slashing the beast, he hurriedly staggered backward and stayed far away from the region. However, the beast
then turned toward the injured Lords. As they were injured, their movements were slow, and they could not escape
in time.
At that moment, one of the Lords was struck by the beast's tail, and he instantly disintegrated into nothingness. Not
a speck of his physical body or soul remained.
Upon seeing this, James turned back. His body flashed, and he appeared before the beast in the next instant. Then,
he slashed the beast's head.
