Let's start over, Your Majesty.

Chapter 299 Guardian

The spirit world—they've all been pulled into the spirit world now.

Caesar suddenly realized what was happening and immediately turned and rushed towards the ceremony site.

The room where the ceremony was being held was now covered in emerald green veins, with branches growing wildly, resembling a primeval forest.
Within this, where Yumilia had just been, a large cocoon had formed from the vines, from which a faint light emanated.

"Where is Muirna?" He turned his head and saw Muirna kneeling weakly, clutching his chest.

"professor."

He stepped forward and helped Muirner up.

"How are you?"

"I'm sorry, Caesar," Muirner said, his face pale and his voice very weak.

“I underestimated the power of that force. When it descended, it severed the connection between me and Yumilia,” she said breathlessly.

"Now," Caesar immediately looked at the cocoon formed by the vines.

“The ritual was interrupted and needs to be reconnected; otherwise, Yumilia will remain in this eternal slumber,” Muirna said.

"But now, the divinity of the natural divine right, along with the super-divine power that created it, has rejected my intervention. Now, the only way to connect is through the Azure Tree."

She looked at Caesar: "Caesar, you must first give me the Azure Tree. Only by using it can we neutralize the rejection of the natural divine authority. Once you have it, leave this place immediately. The super-divine gaze will only focus on the area near the ritual. As long as you leave this place, you will not be oppressed."

"But what about you?" Caesar asked immediately. "Without the support of the Formless Heavenly Domain, how can you resist oppression with just the Azure Tree?"

"I," Muirner opened his mouth, then lowered his head: "I can only hold on for now."

"You don't need to worry about me. After I link with Yumilia, I will not be in danger for the time being. Even if I am rejected, my life will not be in danger."

It won't endanger your life, but you'll suffer something more terrifying than death.

She looked up and noticed the difference in her current environment.

Is this the spirit world?

“It seems so.” Caesar nodded. “That super-divine power was so strong that we were dragged to the spirit world as soon as we were noticed.”

“Just as I suspected,” Muirner said, “the spirit world is a transitional zone where higher-dimensional beings penetrate into reality.”

“So, there’s a possibility that other divine beings might appear here,” Caesar said.

“It’s not impossible,” Muirner said, “if luck is on my side.”

Caesar calmed himself, gazing at the endless void, his mind filled with thoughts of that one figure.

"Grace"

According to information from the Alliance Council, Grace had long been out of contact, but if we could meet her here...
"Caesar."

Muirner's voice interrupted his thoughts.

"Soon this place will attract the attention of beings from the spirit world, and they will be even more dangerous. If we want to leave here, we can only return to reality after the ritual is completed and we obtain complete natural divine authority and super-divine power."

Caesar took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Leave those to me. With me here, nothing will disturb you."

Muirner nodded, a glint in his eyes: "Please."

She grasped Caesar's armored hand, and a bluish-green light flowed down his arm and into her body.

The power of cyan has now returned to her body.

At the same time, the ground beneath their feet began to tremble. Without the blessing of the Azure Tree, the Formless Heavenly Domain was once again shaken.

Caesar also felt the pressure suddenly increase.

“Quickly, get out of here,” Muirner’s voice was almost squeezed out from between his teeth.

Caesar glanced at her one last time, then turned to Yumilia's large cocoon and whispered, "Take care."

With a turn, the cloak of night sky behind him fluttered, lifting his body into the air.

At the same time, Muirna began to try to connect with Yumilia again, and the leaf reappeared in her hand, emitting a verdant light.

A thin mist spread out from beneath her feet, and a lush grassland emerged from the abundant life force, giving birth to the Radiant Domain.

Tender tendrils emerged from the leaf, connecting her to the cocoon between herself and Yumilia. This connection gradually stabilized. Muirna took a deep breath, then looked at Caesar and nodded gently.

As Caesar withdrew the power of the Formless Heavenly Domain, the golden temple phantom vanished in an instant, causing Muirna's legs to sway, and he nearly collapsed to his knees.
But she still persevered, gritting her teeth, and continued the inheritance ritual despite the erosion of divinity upon her.

Caesar landed on the ruins of a rubble, activated his Domination, and became alert to his surroundings.

That stone tablet is definitely still here, waiting for its chance to strike.

"Master, this place is so scary, there are so many frightening smells." Mu Yue's voice trembled uncontrollably.

“Don’t worry, I’m scared too,” Caesar said.

Caesar's gaze was fixed on the void below the ceremonial ground, as if something was subtly moving there.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, and the next second, a colossal object suddenly appeared in the void of his vision.

It was a huge red whale that suddenly appeared where they were, waving its fins and rising up like a mountain peak, swimming straight upwards.

Fortunately, it did not touch the platform of the ceremony venue.

"whale?"

As Caesar watched the deep red whale slowly swimming above him, he realized that there was no concept of space in the spirit world; any object could appear and disappear at any time.

Although it is a creature from the spirit world, apart from its unusual color, it is no different from a blue whale in the real world.
It roamed about, and a long, drawn-out whale cry echoed outwards, shaking the ground.

Then, the nozzle on the top of the whale opened, but instead of water vapor, it spewed out thick smoke with strange colors.
The thick fog spread out in circles around it and then slowly disappeared. The red whale swam further and further away, leaving a trail of colorful tails behind it.

As Caesar watched the mist slowly spreading, he seemed to realize something.

His idea was quickly proven true; the colorful smoke landed on the surrounding ruins, and strange-looking creatures sprang up from it.
Some resemble animals but possess mechanical structures, while others are completely indistinguishable in type, like a fusion of various objects.
On one bed grew a huge, ugly face with a gaping, blood-red mouth; on another, a man in a gentleman's suit had a head that was actually a cannon; on yet another, a lion had a majestic upper body but a coiled snake tail that emerged from an earthenware pot; on yet another, a scholar's sculpture had a head and body that were completely disproportionate, with an exaggeratedly large head covered with insect-like mouthparts; and on yet another, a crawling body made entirely of various mechanical devices, looking like a child's haphazardly sculpted clay.

The surrounding ruins were now completely covered with these strange spirit creatures, densely packed together.

All of these things were focused on the ritual platform that was radiating a rich life force.

A faint, guttural roar seemed to come from nowhere, and gray mist spewed from the floating ruins toward the ritual area. The mist solidified, forming pathways, and then some enormous flying creatures took off, carrying their kind, and swarmed toward the ritual site like zombies.

Swish!
Amidst the surging tide of spirit creatures, golden light flashed, carrying away countless wrecks. Caesar faced the beast tide head-on, single-handedly taking on ten thousand men.

"I declare that all those whose bodies are filthy and unclean shall be punished!"

The power of the laws of order spread out, golden flames rose up, scorching the bodies of these monsters, and a sea of ​​fire blazed directly in front of him.

However, unaffected monsters still emerged from within, their numbers remaining enormous.

"Imperial Guard!"

He shouted, and at that moment, golden lights shone at the edge of the ritual platform, forming towering, heavily armored knights. But this time, there were not only knights, but also archers and musketeers behind them, numbering in the hundreds, forming a high wall with their bodies to resist the monster's attack.

Caesar raised his hand, and the Fantasy Custom and the Illusionary Sea Scroll appeared simultaneously. Dozens of demons flew out of the books, followed by the sailing pirate ship, which crashed into them head-on. The triumphant pirate captain raised his scimitar and commanded his crew to fire cannons at the spirit creatures.

"Fire! Fire!"

Caesar continued to control the fantasy creation, writing rapidly on the pages. The next moment, dazzling light burst forth, and various fantasy creatures surged out of the book: griffins, pegasus, fire phoenixes, dragons, and feathered serpents. These powerful fantasy creatures immediately confronted the spirit world creatures, and together with the legions, demons, and pirate ships, a fierce battle broke out here.

With this help, all spirit creatures were kept outside the ritual site.

However, the enemy numbers were too great. Caesar moved swiftly through the battlefield, eliminating those who slipped through the net, but it became increasingly difficult.

Just as he had killed a group of noisy dwarves, on a nearby pile of ruins, a massive minotaur with spider-like legs raised a battle axe made of bone, moving swiftly away from the melee, leaping rapidly across the surrounding debris, about to land above the ritual site.

But at that moment, a colossal figure descended, its sharp dragon claws flashing past and tearing the minotaur's body apart in the next instant.

She breathed out dragon breath, and anything that came near was turned into charcoal.

"Itah!" Caesar shouted.

The one who arrived at the crucial moment was Ita, who had already transformed into a true dragon.

"Caesar!"

Ita saw Caesar over there and immediately flapped his wings and flew over.

"I was just waiting for your orders to come to my aid, but then the research institute suddenly exploded, and that's how I ended up here! I have no idea where I am, but I sensed familiar magical energy fluctuations here and came here!" Ita said excitedly to him.
