Degrade from Nobility to a Humble Slave Chapter 4228 The New Hope

Since Kincaid was put into the Sumeru Space by Zen, he was completely cut off from the outside
world.

He didn't realize that his sword had already been lost until Zen told him.

As he heard this piece of news, his hand greatly trembled and a look of extreme surprise appeared on
his face. "It fell into the hands of the Snake Spirit King?"

"No. It is an existence that is even far stronger than the Snake Spirit King," Zen replied.

Then, Zen took the liberty of telling him what had happened in his battle against the humanoid being.

When Zen mentioned the ancestry-level bloodline, Kincaid wasn't able to hide his excitement. He was
just as thrilled as the others from the Bold Conjecture House. Afterward, the topic went back to Elder
Xue, and Zen repeated what he had said to the others.

Hearing all of this, Kincaid wasn't able to keep his calm for a long time.

The development of the situation was far beyond his expectation. They were in such a precarious
condition, and even time was their enemy.

Since a long time ago, Kincaid had hated Cornelius to the core. Even if he racked his mind, he couldn't
figure out a sensible reason why Cornelius wanted to destroy the Four Spirits Sect.

But now, the mystery had been revealed. He came to understand everything.

Just as Zen had said, the downgrader was a warrior from the world of a higher grade, and once he got
a hold of the irregular heavy sword, no one would probably have the chance to defeat him.



"Since the downgrader could downgrade the world from a higher grade to a lower one, his strength
should be something that we can't fight against. Then, why is he hiding behind Cornelius's shadow?"
Kincaid was a little confused about this part.

"I think it is because he has lost a large portion of his strength, and the heavy sword was his way to
make up for it," Zen replied. "My basis for saying that is because the Deep Space hasn't been
completely downgraded yet, and only a small portion of the main world has been downgraded."

Zen was pointing out that if the downgrader possessed all of his original power, there was no need for
him to manipulate the Snake Spirit King. He could just directly perform the downgrade.

"I get your point. If that's the case, he will begin the downgrade after he got my sword, right?" Kincaid
emphasized.

After all, he was a creature of the main world. Living in the third-grade world made him feel restricted
as if his eyes were blindfolded.

"You're right. Even before he got the sword, the downgrade has already begun. He wants to control the
entire chaos and expand it outwards," Zen explained.

Although this was just speculation at first, it had been later confirmed by the ancestry-level bloodline.

The ancestry-level bloodline had once described the process of downgrading to Zen. At first, it would
seem to begin from a bead of water dropping into a pond, which would then create a small bubble.
Then, this bubble would expand indefinitely until it finally drained all the water in the entire pond. When
the bubble occupied all the space that originally belonged to the water in pond, it was when the
downgrade was completed.

After the downgrader came to the main world, he was only able to trick the Four Spirits Sect through
the Snake Spirit King. Perhaps, his strength was not enough, or maybe he had lost some of his



abilities. One could only speculate on the real reason behind it. Then, the Four Spirits Sect, completely
unaware of the downgrader's ploy, sent out the world builders to drop the beads of water to create
bubbles.

However, the bubbles they created could not expand indefinitely.

Kincaid took a deep breath to process all the information he acquired. Then out of nowhere, he asked a
question that everyone had overlooked. "Where is Elder Xue now? Where did he go after he came to
the chaos?"

He wanted to know whether Elder Xue was dead or alive. In his mind, the whereabouts of the elder
might somehow give them a clue that would lead to something.

The eyes of the long-haired monsters gazed upon the top of Zen's head. Actually, only the Grand
Supreme Elderly Lord had come into contact with Elder Xue.

"He came to the Jade Pure Realm and sent me a message through a dream, telling me to travel
through the main world. Then, he just left without saying anything. There was no information about
where he would go afterward," the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord answered.

"Hmm, he didn't tell you where he went…" Kincaid rubbed his chin and thought for a while before
asking, "Was it his real self that came, or only an avatar of him?"

This question stumped the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord. He never thought of paying attention to this
seemingly minor detail at that moment.

After all, he was hiding in the Jade Pure Realm at that time. With the sudden appearance of such an
important person, he became so excited that he ignored all other details.



However, he was a powerful Eternal Realm warrior, so the memories hidden in his soul would also be
indelible. With that, the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord quickly closed his eyes and searched for his
memories of the past.

As he opened his eyes, a strange expression was visibly seen on his face. He then said, "Elder Xue did
appear very suddenly. At that time, I thought that he used the Grand Teleportation to come over, and
when he left, his disappearance was even more sudden. It seemed that he just literally vanished before
my eyes, without causing any space fluctuations…"

Upon hearing what the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord said, Kincaid's eyes lit up. "He must have used the
Heaven Projection, which could project him in a lower-grade world. It seems that Elder Xue didn't
personally come to you."

"But what about the Grand Weapon Refining Method and the golden page that he gave me?" The
Grand Supreme Elderly Lord still had doubts.

"It's not difficult for him to pass these down to you through his projection," Kincaid said confidently.
"Elder Xue is very likely to be alive. He's still probably in the Deep Space."

At this point, Hilario couldn't help but interrupt Kincaid. He thought that they had been off the topic for
some time now. "Master Kincaid, I don't think this is the time to talk about whether Elder Xue is alive or
not. Forgive my presumptuousness, but how should we deal with the downgrader now? Even Zen, who
has absorbed the ancestry-level bloodline and obtained your sword was defeated by him!"

Of course, Kincaid knew that their current situation was very dangerous. One could even say that their
lives were hanging by a thread that could break at any minute.

All of the currently present long-haired monsters had stayed in this damned place for so long, still
hoping that one day, they would be able to return to the main world. He could feel how disappointed
they were when they realized that all their hopes were utterly destroyed.



However, Kincaid was a person who was beyond exceptional. He had always been calm and
perceptive even when faced with overwhelming pressure. Moreover, he never failed to exhibit a gentle
and elegant aura.

After all, his perspective as the leader of the Human Spirit Sect was to always keep a level head even
when facing the worst situations.

"There is more than one powerful sword in the Deep Space," Kincaid said abruptly.

The long-haired monsters were all surprised to hear this. "You mean that there's a second one?!"
Hilario couldn't help but exclaim.

Kincaid nodded and said, "Well, it's not necessarily a sword, but I'm sure that another weapon like the
heavy sword exists. It might be a saber, a spear, or anything, but it definitely is out there."

"How are you so sure about this, Master Kincaid?" Zen asked, knowing that this was a matter of great
importance.

Kincaid smiled faintly and started explaining. "The layout of the Deep Space is completely different
from that of the main world. In the main world, the Four Spirits Sect was the dominant force, while in
the Deep Space, the power was only divided between the Cinnabar race and Fostering race. These
two great races had been fighting with each other for countless years, and the war between them
continued until the Deep Space finally collapsed."

"It must mean that these two races were evenly matched in terms of strength," Zen speculated. "But it's
still hard to believe that during that long-term war, neither of the two sides was able to gain the upper
hand. Usually, one side will inevitably continue to rise and the other one will decline. It's very difficult to
maintain such a balance."



"That is correct… in normal circumstances." Kincaid continued, "What maintained the balance between
the two great forces were the heavy sword that belonged to the emperor of the Cinnabar race, and the
other object, with almost the same prowess as the sword, that belonged to the Fostering race."

This was not something that Kincaid just deduced. Back then, when he obtained the sword of the
Cinnabar race, he was also able to obtain some information indicating that the Fostering race had the
same weapon, which granted them the power to withstand the Cinnabar race.

Of course, Kincaid became curious and tried to look for it, but he didn't succeed. After all, the broken
Deep Space was a vast and extremely dangerous place.

Realizing what Kincaid was trying to say, Zen butted in, "Now, we have to search for this weapon,
right?"

Kincaid nodded repeatedly. "That's why I have to make sure that Elder Xue is still alive and is still
somewhere in the Deep Space. No one among us can return to the main world, meaning that we also
can't reach the Deep Space. If we want to find this object, we can only rely on him."

Everyone was amazed at how fast Kincaid was able to come up with a feasible solution. Just now,
everyone was still immersed in despair and felt that the situation was completely hopeless. Even Zen
was almost on the brink of giving up. However, Kincaid was the only one who was not affected by the
oppressive pressure that the situation was bringing. In fact, he was able to find a glimmer of hope in a
very short time. He was really born with tremendous talents that could turn the tables just when
everything seemed to be already falling apart.
