In a place situated in the northern part of the continent that was covered in snow, the entire ground was currently layered with the color of silver.
This land that was in the extreme north of the continent was covered in snow throughout the year. The many tribes that lived here were subjected to the threat of hunger, cold, and illnesses all year around.
It resulted in these tribes living in the northern barrens to become used to fighting, killings, and tolerance. This was also where there were endless experts born in each generation despite not having established a truly unified and powerful country.
Right now, despite the wind and snow, the location of one of the tribes was as warm as spring. It was because all the snow that got close to the place would dissipate.
The ground the tribe was situated on was still covered in green grass, with herds of cows and sheep. It was like a completely different world from the cold world outside.


This place was where the strongest northern barbarian tribe—the Frostwolf Tribe that was said to dominate over the northern barren land—was located.
Countless warriors from the Frostwolf Tribe gathered at the center of the tribe, wearing expressions of respect and submission. They looked toward the central spot as if they were looking at the god which they revered.
At the spot where all the warriors’ gazes were gathered, a middle-aged man with silver hair was seated there casually. There was a chessboard placed in front of him, on which there were many chess pieces laid out.
Right now, the entire chessboard was covered by layers of spatial distortions, and only a person with extremely powerful vision would be able to see the chess pieces clearly. Unexpectedly, these chess pieces were all towering mountain peaks. The movement of each chess piece would result in mountains being uprooted. It could be said to be moving mountains and overturning seas.
Clearly, this chessboard had been created by someone using their power to compress space and bring in many mountains.
If one were to play chess with it, they would need to possess the power to move mountains, and their martial will must be able to pass through the stacking layers of spatial distortions.
Ulpian was seated on the opposite side of the chessboard, controlling the mountains on it while communicating with his martial will,
Brother Ye, have you made up your mind?

The silver-haired middle-aged man looked at Ulpian with a hint of concealed surprise in his gaze.
Ulpian had suddenly appeared three days ago to look for him. After the two of them exchanged blows, he had not lost. However, he could tell that Ulpian definitely had not unleashed his full powers then.
The martial arts that Ulpian utilized were unique and novel, as well as different from any sect’s or faction’s martial arts. Yet they were deep and unfathomable, possessing streams of unbelievable abilities.


They spent the next three days discussing about Dao, yet till today, he still had not found any flaws in Ulpian.
In these three days, Ulpian had stopped him here, preventing him from making a move on the Imperial Capital that was several ten thousand lis away.
He had promised a person that he would not leave the northern barrens in his entire lifetime. However, given his current strength, he would still be able to make a move on a place that was several ten thousand lis away as if it were right within his reach.
Rather than Ulpian’s strength, realm, and martial arts, what surprised Ye Jing even more was Ulpian’s identity.
‘Came from another universe… the Commander of the Silver Army?’
Ye Jing shook his head.
It’s too risky.

Ulpian continued,
Brother Ye, with your aptitude, taking that one step forward is just a matter of time. However, even if you were to have a battle prowess of tier nine of the Divine level, you still won’t be able to change the trend of the entire multivariate universe.

The universe is too vast. Even if you can grasp the formation of several thousand or ten thousands galaxies and even if you can control over 100 galaxies, compared to the entire universe and multivariate universe, it’ll still be too insignificant.


The entire multivariate universe…
Ye Jing smiled and said,
To begin with, that isn’t something that we can control.


That might be so,
Ulpian continued,
But regardless of whether it can be done, this might be our best and final chance.



Hints of complicated and determined expressions flashed in Ulpian’s eyes. Back when he broke away from being assimilated with the demonic gods and darted through countless universes and timelines, he obtained many pieces of information concerning the multivariate universe.

The 13 demonic gods are the existences at the very peak of the entire multivariate universe. Just a single thought and intent from them would be able to provide the energy for your entire world to perform black magic.

And the strongest one amongst the 13 demonic gods is the source of emptiness and serenity which is also what you call the God of Universal Truth. If it were any other time, his actions would not have any influence on us at all.

However, due to that unprecedented reformation, this is currently the time when he is the weakest.

Ye Jing did not say anything. However, as a soft rumble 
rang out, another mountain landed on the chessboard. He had made his next move.
As the Silver Mage King from the 12 Mage factions, he had his own set of understanding toward black magic and toward the existences of demonic gods.
The power supply of the 12 factions of black magic in this world that came from the evil gods were the powers of the 12 demonic gods. Their archenemy, the Church of Universal Truth, relied on the power of that remaining demonic god.
These 13 demonic gods were the strongest and most domineering existences in the entire multivariate universe.
Each additional tier cleared from the Divine level onward was a competition between the 13 demonic gods. Experts in the endlessly vast and multivariate universe, who could overturn rivers and seas as well as destroy the world, were used as chess pieces to control the countless and endless timelines in the universe.
The timelines would affect each other, establishing ties and causing the formation of many Rings of Time.


It was like an unprecedented great round of chess. As many expert chess pieces landed, many Rings of Time formed one after another. Once sealed within the Ring of Time, large areas of worlds and the demonic gods’ powers would be sealed up, existing forever inside that endless cycle.
This was like a game of Go.
It was just that the entire multivariate universe was the chessboard and the countless experts who had reached the pinnacle were chess pieces. The Ring of Time was used to seal up one world after another. In this game of chess, the 13 demonic gods’ war had already spread across the ends of space-time and thoughts.
Ulpian said,
This world is already entering the seventh onslaught and there won’t be much time left. We might not be able win against him, but we can at least snatch back this world from their hands.


But your way of doing things is too risky. I only see a 0.0001% chance,
Ye Jing said with a frown.

Against demonic gods, one out of millions and millions of chances will be considered to be a lot, let alone when the chance is one out of 10,000,
Ulpian said.
Moreover, aside from me, there can be other people as well.

It’s not just you alone. There are also the other Mage Kings and other characters who have been in hiding. If we can gather everyone’s powers, success may not be impossible.


But the chance of success is still low. Just these alone won’t be able to convince them,
Ye Jing said as he stared at Ulpian. Then he stated clearly,
And once we fail, what might come next could be a disaster of an annihilating nature. The path that you’re taking is no longer one of justice but that of revenge.

Ulpian did not say anything. It was because based on this point, it was true that he was unable to convince Ye Jing.
He said in a soft voice,
Just once will do. Even if I die immediately after winning, I still want to win against him once.
