"T-T-T-T-That's impossible!" a man exclaimed, fainting immediately after staring at the Cloud Whale. he wasn't alone, for everyone on the battlefield, whether human or demon, was the same.

The humans were overwhelmed after staring at the more than a hundred Black Demons seated within the Cloud Whale. Even seeing a Black Demon was a feat of legends. A Black Demon had only appeared along the borders of the battlefield a couple of times in their history.

So, one Black Demon alone would have caused the city to go into a state of full alert. But, 109 Black DemonsIncluding Hazakwas an amount beyond their wildest dreams. It was a number they simply failed to comprehend.

So, every human that laid eyes on them fainted immediately after, losing every speck of fighting spirit. As for the demons, they felt the sheer presence being exuded by the Cloud Whale.

Thanks to everyone seated within the Cloud Whale, their presence combined into it, being exhibited as one. And since it was the presence of a human, they also failed to comprehend just how such a ridiculously powerful human came into existence, one that surpassed the combined might of all the Black Demons in the world.

After all, in their eyes, the human had captured all the Black Demons and was transporting them into the city.

All in all, both sides fainted as the Cloud Whale slowly dragged itself over the battlefield, taking flight the moment it entered the city. Krune actually had to break the gates of the city to enter it. No one dared to stop them as the Cloud Whale soon reached the center of the city, crossing over as it flew towards the other side.

In there laid another gate. The Cloud Whale blasted it open, sliding above the bridge that appeared beyond. This bridge spanned 100 meters in width and more than 10 kilometers in length. At the end of it was the water column that the Cloud Whale gently entered, beginning to swim towards the center.

The water column had a radius of 3000 kilometers. So, there was a considerable distance to travel before they reached their destination. The moment they entered the water, numerous octopuses were startled, noticing the number of Black Demons within the Cloud Whale.

They scurried off to report the details to their superiors, soon causing a large crown of octopuses to arrive. Carrying tridents as weapons, they swam through the waters, surrounding the Cloud Whale, but failing to muster enough courage to attack it.

After all, they didn't wish to poke a hole into a nest of absolute monsters. They didn't wish to do so due to the fact that they were able to sense based on the sheer presence exuded by the Cloud Whale. So, unless their Supreme Elders arrived, they didn't wish to do anything.

And at this moment, the Cloud Whale calmly swam towards the center. Sadly for the octopuses, no matter how long the octopuses waited, their Supreme Elders never arrived.

Hearing all their conversations through the Sonic Radar, Krune muttered, "Strange, why haven't they arrived? They never allowed a demon to set foot within this water column, not to mention a Black Demon. And here we are, carrying more than a hundred of them. why hadn't they taken action?"

The octopuses had the power to trade Godly Points with many special items that they manufactured. Plus, they were also the ones with the power to send them to Layer 1. For that to happen, they had to first reach the center of the water column.

Whenever a human visited, they would be carried by the octopuses in a special container towards the center of the water pillar, where they would exchange their Godly Points for one of the five treasures available on the list.

Then again, since the Ticket to Layer 1 was only shown as a black line to everyone else born in Layer 2, they only had four items to choose from.

"Oh, you mean those octopuses with strength at Tier 6?" Zamura laughed all of a sudden, having heard Krune. "Well, I dispatched them all to the afterlife. The stone dude that gave me my active ability had an interesting story to say. The price for it was to eradicate all the octopuses."

"Since I hadn't promised him anything, I just killed their Supreme Elders and called it a day." Zamura laughed. As he was able to use his real strength, the octopuses weren't his match.

After a long time had passed, the Cloud Whale reached the center of the water pillar as Krune noticed a weary old octopus seated atop a chair of sorts that was half-submerged in water. He dispelled his Cloud Whale, reactivating it a bit below so that everyone could stand on it.

As for him, he walked on the water surface calmly, being even more comfortable than while on land, asking the weary old octopus, "We came here to purchase a Ticket to Layer 1."

"That'll be 1000 Godly Points each," the weary old octopus replied.

"Is there anything we have to be concerned about? We wish to proceed there as a group." Krune said soon after, asking just in case the mechanic was similar to when he arrived at Layer 2.

"Everyone starts from the same position." The weary old octopus replied. "Also, Layer 1 is completely different than anything you could ever imagine. So, there is nothing that can be said. There are zero risks at the place you would appear at. So, you can observe everything first before taking any actions."

"Thank you." Krune nodded, gazing at everyone once as he said, "Then, let me head in first."

"Lord, please wait." Hazak interrupted him, landing beside him as it said, "If in the case there is some danger, let me deal with them. I'll go first. I can't bear to see your life at risk."

"I'll be fine, though" Krune was just about to refute when Hazak refused adamantly, finally beaming in joy when he relented.

It then summoned its tablet, spent 1000 Godly Points when its figure vanished. Following it was Krune, Feifei, and everyone else in order. Once everyone left, the weary old octopus chuckled. "This group is interesting. Ever since I created this Sub-Realm, I hadn't fathomed such a development."

"This is so fun!"
