Starting from primitive world, building the strongest divine kingdom

At this critical moment, a dazzling light descended from the sky, splitting the tsunami in half.

High Tower Soul was stunned, unsure of what had happened.

Sensing a familiar fluctuation, he muttered, "The power of Ritual?"

He confirmed this from Enzo.

However, he remained unconcerned and tried to persuade, "Enzo, give up resistance. Even with the power of Ritual, how many times can you stop me? Besides, there is a price to pay for invoking Ritual. How much power can those conducting the Ritual really lend to you?"

High Tower Soul's words struck a chord at a critical juncture.

The Convergence Ritual could indeed consolidate strength from many individuals into one, but it couldn't be used limitlessly.

Enzo understood this well; he could resist perhaps two more times at most.

Clearly, two times were not nearly enough.

Therefore, he voluntarily interrupted the Ritual and faced High Tower Soul.

High Tower Soul praised him, "A wise choice."

In that moment, Enzo was remarkably calm, unafraid of death. Instead, he asked, "Mr. High Tower Soul, may I ask you one more question?"

High Tower Soul was taken aback.

Enzo's behavior was indeed peculiar.

But he agreed nonetheless, "Given your cooperation, I will answer your question. Go ahead, what do you wish to ask?"

Enzo inquired, "Do you know about the Cataclysm?"

High Tower Soul's expression changed several times. The Cataclysm was a painful memory, a bizarre curse that left everyone helpless, leading to the downfall of many tribes. But why was Enzo asking about this?

Puzzled, just as he was about to answer, Enzo suddenly smiled and continued, "Regarding the Cataclysm, I understand some things. It is related to the Tree of Life."

High Tower Soul grew uneasy and asked, "What do you mean?"

Enzo replied calmly, "The Cataclysm has never been far away. When certain things appear, those disasters will reappear once again."

In the next instant, Enzo leaped to High Tower Soul's side.

He reached out his hand, and behind him sprouted a pair of ashen-black wings. His aura turned decayed, as if he had been buried in soil for ages.

This was the mimicry ability of the Beasts Totem.

The object of his emulation was the peculiar woman from the illusory world of the stone cave.

High Tower Soul felt his own power draining, yet he was incredibly excited because he witnessed Enzo manifesting the Beasts Totem.

"Incredible!"

"Truly incredible!"

"You actually have two totems, both incredibly powerful!"

High Tower Soul was ecstatic.

This meant that once he occupied Enzo's body, acquired Enzo's talents, and combined them with his own knowledge of numerous supernatural secrets, he could become the most powerful supernatural being in history, perhaps even transcending boundaries to become that immensely powerful entity, such as the rumored deity.

However, danger approached.

High Tower Soul absorbed the power of everyone in High Tower Space, combined with his accumulated power from before. Even a small amount of this power caused Enzo's strength to skyrocket.

And all this power, Enzo poured into the Totem of the Tree of Life.

In an instant, the Tree of Life ascended to the Level 6, transforming into an immensely gigantic tree, emanating extraordinarily pure life energy, even causing plants to sprout in the desolate and mysterious ruins.

High Tower Soul grew even more satisfied.

Then, he sensed pain spreading through his body, as if he were being bitten by mosquitoes.

He looked down at himself and discovered numerous strange insects crawling on his body, devouring the energy within.

"What is this?"

High Tower Soul shouted in terror.

Because he realized that the energy being devoured by these insects was permanently diminishing.

Once all the energy was consumed, he would struggle to maintain his own existence and disappear completely from this world.

High Tower Soul immediately tried to drive away these insects.

But it was futile.

He couldn't kill these insects at all. They seemed to exist in another dimension, untouchable, yet capable of consuming his energy.

Damn it!

High Tower Soul was furious.

He looked towards Enzo, completely losing his sanity, his own consciousness once again rushing into Enzo's mind, attempting to directly erase Enzo's consciousness.

However, deep within Enzo's consciousness, there were also those worms.

High Tower Soul was terrified, wanting to escape, but he was directly consumed by those worms.

And Enzo himself was also in jeopardy.

Because those Energy-devouring Worms had now set their sights on him as well.

Enzo let out a breath, glanced at Freya lying on the ground, and with his last bit of energy, using the scepter of the barren mountain, he contacted Amy and said, "Amy, I need to leave for quite a long time this time. You're in charge of the tribe."

After advising her, Enzo activated the Beasts Totem.

The Beasts Totem could mimic the aura of various creatures.

Would it work against the Energy-devouring Worms?

At this moment, Enzo could only take a gamble.

He began to sense the aura of the Energy-devouring Worms, and his own aura gradually changed. Suddenly, the Energy-devouring Worms stopped, seemingly mistaking Enzo for one of their own kind.

As a result, the Energy-devouring Worms turned their attention to Freya.

Seeing this scene, Enzo could only emit some of his aura to protect Freya.

And at that moment, the mysterious ruins trembled once again.

The sky tore apart, cracks appeared in the earth, and just as Enzo sensed the tremors, he and Freya fell into one of the cracks.

...

High Tower Space.

As Curtis's latest attack landed, High Tower finally crumbled.

The radiant patterns on it extinguished, massive boulders fell from the high sky, and the entire High Tower began to collapse, shattering High Tower Space.

Curtis laughed excitedly, "High Tower is finally destroyed!"

But before he could finish laughing, he witnessed a dazzling burst of light in High Tower Space. The beam of light struck him directly and the two large crimson foxes beside him.

Like melting snow, the huge foxes dissolved and disappeared instantly.

Although Curtis reacted quickly, half of his body was still erased. Seeing the beam of light appear again, Curtis could only flee in madness.

Shortly after, the light dissipated.

High Tower Space returned to calmness, but only the completely ruined ruins remained.

...

The Crimson Star Tribe's camp.

Upon hearing Enzo's instructions, Amy became thoroughly uneasy. She attempted to contact Enzo again using the scepter of the barren mountain, but there was no response.

Something was wrong!

Amy hurriedly sought out the members of the tribe.

Priest Lucy spoke up to comfort her, "Amy, don't worry so much. Enzo should be fine. As the wielder of the scepter of the barren mountain, if something happened to Enzo, the scepter should react."

"Really?" Amy asked.

Priest Lucy nodded reassuringly, "Of course, it's true. After all, I'm the first researcher of the scepter of the barren mountain in the Crimson Star Tribe."

This reassured Amy somewhat.

Thinking of Enzo's instructions, she felt she needed to pull herself together.

It was already halfway through winter, and the coming time would be a tough test for the Crimson Star Tribe.

By spring, there would be even more responsibilities for the tribe.

Just then, several tribe members who were guarding the ritual square hurried over to report to Amy, "Lord Amy, the tribal fire is behaving strangely!"

Everyone immediately rushed to the ritual square.

Ward and others were already there, standing beside the stone brazier, perplexed by the fire that had changed its appearance inside.

"What's going on here?"

Amy asked the others.

Neville stepped forward and explained, "Earlier, the tribe gathered to perform a Convergence Ritual, but it was interrupted by Lord Enzo midway. The power gathered by the tribe entered the tribal fire. Since then, the tribal fire has been like this."

Amy looked at the tribal fire.

Having served as a priest and entrusted with important responsibilities by Enzo, she held a significant position in the Crimson Star Tribe, so she did not sense any resistance from the tribal fire.

Amy stepped forward and touched the tribal fire.

In the next moment, a chaotic tangle of lines intertwined, without any order but emitting a faint yet powerful aura.

Priest Lucy's expression hardened as he exclaimed, "Totem!"

She looked at the stone brazier and affirmed, "It seems the tribal fire has ascended to become Totem Fire. But why is the totem it's displaying like this?"

Priest Lucy was uncertain, and everyone else was even more baffled.

However, they all sensed that the tribal fire had become stronger, which was a good thing and did not cause concern among the others.

However, Amy was deeply troubled.

In the instant she touched the tribal fire, she seemed to sense Enzo's condition.

It was extremely dire.

The only thing that reassured her was that there was no immediate danger to his life.

For now, all she could do was pray in her heart, "Lord Enzo, please don't let anything happen to you!"

...

Time passed, often without drawing much attention.

Especially in winter, heavy snow fell, blanketing everything and turning the world into a vast expanse of white. After the snow melted, several days had passed.

Repeated snowfalls passed the winter by.

Under Amy's management, the Crimson Star Tribe's development accelerated rapidly. She implemented many plans Enzo had instructed her to remember, bringing about drastic changes in the Crimson Star Tribe.

Several months passed in the blink of an eye.

It was already spring of the second year.

In a cave deep within an unknown forest, Freya was using a chiseled stone pot to cook food. While tending to the cooking, she frequently glanced towards the inner part of the cave where someone lay.

It was none other than Enzo.

At that moment, a faint voice sounded. Freya's heart stirred, and she hurried into the cave, seeing Enzo slowly opening his eyes, his gaze moist. Unable to hold back, she spoke, "Enzo, you're finally awake."
