Chapter 1883: Athena

Maybe Kent never meant to say those words out loud.

However, considering the beauty of the lady who had walked out of the portal, the words just came out. But who could blame him? In fact, the lady was indeed stunning.

Kent would be lying if he said she wasn’t the most beautiful woman he had seen in his life, and that says a lot when, especially, there is someone like Adina in his harem.

Thus far, Adina is the most beautiful woman in his harem.

However, this Undead Ancient is far more beautiful than she is.

She possesses a pair of long, silver-blue hair, so long, in fact, that they seem to sweep the ground behind her. Dia beats her in the hair department for length, but her hair is still incredibly long.

Her skin is flawlessly pale white, with not even an atomic defect visible. Every aspect of her complexion is pristine, pretty, and enchanting.

As for her facial features, she has an oval-shaped face, deep blue eyes, and a smile that seemed to bring meaning to just about anything.

Every step she took sent waves of attraction to almost everyone. In fact, aside from Kent, even his wives were mesmerized by her beauty.

The only ones who managed to resist her allure were Pandora, Mjolnir, and Fiannarel. Even Kent was taken by surprise by just how good-looking she was.

Noticing the look on his face, Dominique smiled and introduced her fifth Undead Ancient. "She is the War Goddess Athena, my strongest Ancient."

Athena stopped beside Dominique and bowed, revealing her cleavage, which, judging by the size of her breasts, made Kent feel his heart tremble.

"Nice to meet the infamous Bone Lich Undead Emperor." Her tone was just as enchanting.

"Pleasure meeting you too, Athena," Kent replied, taking a deep breath before adding, "If you don’t mind me asking, how can an undead become a Primordial? The last I checked, undead beings cannot comprehend the Origin Dao, meaning they can’t become Primordials."

Athena smiled and answered, "That is true. Undead beings cannot become Primordials. However, that rule only applies when one is in this universe. The moment they step out of this universe, they can sense and comprehend the Origin Dao."

Kent nodded, slightly expecting such an answer.

He knew with certainty that the rules could be bent to suit one’s desires, so hearing it from Athena wasn’t too shocking, as one would have expected.

He was even sure the Undead Monarch had already reached the realm of a Primordial. After all, back when they fought, he was already at the Pseudo-Primordial stage.

The question now is, where would one go aside from the Primordial Chaos to comprehend the Origin Dao?

The answer isn’t one he is ready to hear. But even if there were such a mysterious place, Kent also knew, and he even possessed a place where his undead could comprehend the Origin Dao...

Chaos Chasm, the world of the Chaos Ascension King.

Since it is his birthright and he has already claimed the legacy that came with it, he can easily use it, and he most certainly has plans to do so...

Kent turned to Dominique. "I suppose getting her wasn’t easy."

"Indeed. I had to go into seclusion for millions of years just to gather enough Necrotic Qi. Luckily for me, after she was summoned, things have been moving in the right direction."

Kent turned and looked at Athena again before turning back to Dominique. "That is good to hear."

He allowed his mind to settle before asking the question that had come to mind. "Though it is good to see you again, I can’t help but think of what your old man will do if he finds out you left the Undead Realm to come see me. So why did you risk coming here?"

Dominique sighed before answering, "Because I need your help... well, we need your help in the upcoming war between my kind and the Abyssal Chaos."

"Oh, the Abyssal Chaos? What about them?"

Safe to say, Kent’s interest had been piqued at the mention of the Abyssal Chaos. He had a past with that place since his parents were still there, so he wanted to know more...

"I know it has been years since you left, but during that time, a new Abyssal Chaos King rose, and he has been pushing for an invasion.

The Abyssal Realm had, in the past, locked the gateway to their realm to avoid being attacked. Naturally, the next places they can attack are the Undead Realm, the Resentful Realm, or the Infinity Universe.

My father discovered a couple of years ago that the target realm they planned to attack is the Undead Realm. If that is indeed the case, there is a chance the Undead Realm will be brought to its last legs this time.

My father will never ask for your help, so when I noticed Kaizo and the others had returned to the Undead Realm, I had to find a way to meet you."

Kent nodded, not too bothered. He owed nothing to the Undead Realm, and he most certainly owed nothing to the Undead Monarch, so saving them wasn’t something he would even consider.

However, they were talking about the Abyssal Chaos. If such a powerhouse had risen in recent years while he was away, he had to speed up his plans and return there for his parents.

Before, he wasn’t someone who could roam there. Now, however, he could cultivate both Chaos Qi and Abyssal Qi, so he would be like a fish in water there.

"Do you have an estimation of when they may attack?"

"No. However, my father met with some of the Undead Barons, and from what they discussed, it seems they have already started preparing, so I estimate this will happen within the next 1,000 years.

Of course, the reason I came also had to do with what Athena discovered. It appears some insidious forces have infiltrated the Undead Realm and are slowly corrupting it from within.

You once claimed that a race in this universe had been corrupted once. I want to know if you have found a way to root them out. If not, by the time the Abyssal Chaos attacks, we will be reduced to nothing by this unknown corruption."
