Wow! The item-dropping rate is really high!

A high-dimensional demon with immense potential and willing to surrender?

Bai E extended his hand slowly towards the core that represented the true name of the Lord of Fear...

Feeling the gaze that prowled up and down around him like a sharp blade, the Lord of Fear trembled like a quail.

With his head bowed low, he retracted all his sensory capabilities towards the outside world, like an ostrich burying its head in the sand, displaying an attitude of complete submission as he entrusted his fate to the other party.

"Pfft~"

A soft shattering sound transmitted directly from the true name that represented the absolute core to the body above, and the Lord of Fear, realizing what had happened, finally dared to raise his head to look at the expressionless human spiritual body before him.

"Why...why?"

A high-dimensional Demon God completely under control as a loyal subordinate, was an honor inconceivable to any human being.

But him...but him...

How could he reject it?

How could he possibly reject it?

A sense of annihilation stemming from the laws welled up; the Lord of Fear, trying futilely to grasp at something with its ghostly claws, eventually became nothing but a calm and harmless ripple in the high-dimensional space amidst an expanse of deep and obscure darkness.

The ripples finally trembled twice, returning to absolute calm.

[You chose to crush the true name of the surrendering demon, rejecting its contract offer.]

[Loot acquired: Battle Experience 6000 points, Trait: Emotional Absorption, Spiritual Energy (Fear): 100, High-dimensional Origin Fragment*1.]

The spiritual energy with an attribute of fear was being gradually deprived of its fearfulness, transforming into pure spiritual energy and slowly merging into the sea of Bai E's own spiritual energy.

When this absorption process was complete, Bai E's spiritual energy was set to surge by another 100 points.

In the high-dimensional space where the concept of time and space did not exist, a moment in the real world was sufficient for the spiritual mill to completely eradicate the emotion of fear.

[Your Spiritual Energy +100/100, Current Spiritual Energy: 570/570.]

The cultivation increases of Spiritual Power Managers always occurred incrementally, point by point. It was rare to encounter such a situation where spiritual energy surged instantaneously.

The sudden explosion of spiritual energy that surrounded Bai E instantly tensed the spirits of all the external Observers watching the two contestants.

In a way, spiritual energy, which could represent the laws of the high-dimensional space, also had multi-dimensional expressions. When a spiritual body in high-dimensional space bursts with spiritual energy, corresponding fluctuations of spiritual energy also occur around the body of material world that is closely connected to the spiritual body.

External Observers who cannot follow the contestants at all times could use this to roughly determine what possible situations the contestants might be encountering.

In a dire situation, people from the outside also have the ability to forcibly pull the consciousness back from the spiritual body to the physical one, causing some damage and loss to the soul but better than being eternally toyed with by those demons in that mysterious and unpredictable high-dimensional space.

In fact, from the very beginning, they felt something was off about Bai E's spiritual energy.

If the spiritual energy of the competing Elf Race contestant could be likened to a calmly flowing stream, then Bai E's spiritual energy was like a raging tsunami.

At a certain moment, the sudden surge not only startled the fearful Lord who had set up a trap, but also made all the external Observers start to tense up.

Such a sudden fluctuation pointed to only one possibility—Bai E had encountered a demon.

And it was a difficult opponent!

Otherwise, a normal outburst wouldn't be so tumultuous and decisive.

Feeling the spiritual energy fluctuations that seemed to envelop everything, Storm, who had never imagined a human could possess such strong spiritual powers, was completely stunned.

"Is your General Bai E a rank three or a rank four spiritual power powerhouse?"

Otherwise, how could one explain the terrifying magnitude of spiritual energy that felt like the sound of waves echoing in one's ears, causing palpitations?

Aglaya lifted her brows indifferently and replied, "Rank two."

"Rank two?" Storm was taken aback, "How could it be rank two?"

"Once General Bai E returns, you can ask him yourself," Aglaya replied softly, her gaze turning somewhat worrisome as she watched Bai E's physical body sitting cross-legged in its original place.

One breath...

Two breaths...

Ten breaths...

Bai E's spiritual energy aura maintained a considerably high level of fluctuation; could it really be that he had encountered some troublesome opponent?!

The elderly man, who had always been indifferent towards Bai E, an artificial being and disposable asset, began to worry as well, looking around in the hope of finding some opinion to refer to, "General Bai E won't have met with any mishap, will he?"

"Should we pull him back?"

"Yes, we cannot afford to lose General Bai E."

"Although General Bai E's spiritual energy is almost endless, if this eruption continues, I'm afraid he might have encountered some high-tier demon that he can't beat..."

"Even the great demons of the Desire series are no match for General Bai E. Could that place really pose a difficulty for him?"

"That's hard to say..."

The so-called "Thousand-Faced" demon from the Desire series might already be considered an absolute high-level demon in the eyes of most humans, perhaps even the strongest demon to descend into the material world. However, this "strongest demon" is nothing much in the demons' home dimension—high-dimensional space.

A slight miscalculation and one would run headlong into one of the Four Gods or the true native creatures of the high-dimensional space; then, the feast would really begin.

Although the probability of such an event is so small it's practically negligible, a small probability is still a probability. If it truly occurred, there would be no help for it.

"So, General Bai E... he won't be so unlucky, will he?"

As General Bai E's formidable spiritual energy fluctuations persisted, the elderly man became increasingly tense, "Why not... take a simple vote? Aglaya, what do you think?"

Dealing with demons may be the Arbitration Place's domain, but making judgments about situations like this one is a specialty of the Spiritual Power Managers Center.

Faced with the elderly man's question, Aglaya, her brows lightly furrowed, dared not make a rash decision. After hesitating for a moment, she still bit her lip and said, "I think... we should trust General Bai E."

"You all should trust him too," a gentle voice suddenly rang out from afar.

The calm and soothing voice reached everyone's hearts, causing an instinctive surge of endless goodwill toward the owner of the voice.

All eyes turned towards the direction of the sound, and they saw two slender figures moving toward them with an unhurried yet swift grace.

"Prophet!"

"Prophet!" The elves, led by the Storm, instantly bowed in greeting.

The human leaders, who had long heard of the Elf Race Prophet's name, all nodded with smiles and greeted softly, "Prophet."

A slight smile on her lips, the Wind Elf's gaze lingered on the figure with closed eyes sitting cross-legged, and her ruddy lips parted slightly, "General Bai E is not in danger; you can rest assured."

Her prophetic abilities certainly couldn't show her a future too detailed; however, amongst the fragmented and blurry visions, this human warrior would undoubtedly lead everyone through the barriers... there was no doubt about that.

Therefore, nothing could stand in his way before that moment.

Calm eyes quietly observed the expressionless human face, and ripples stirred in the heart of the Wind Elf.

Only when she truly confronted him, observing from up close the "battler" engaged in combat, could she from the depths of her soul feel that shocking spiritual illusion spoken of by Yue Ying...

An eternally burning, cold sun.

This human body was certainly not his true form!

Where did he truly come from? And what future was he bringing to this world?

"Shush!"

The sudden surge of spiritual energy made everyone tense, but upon sensing that Bai E's spiritual energy aura had become even more profound after the fluctuation, everyone on the scene looked at each other in disbelief.

"General Bai E's level of spiritual energy... has improved again?"
