After using his Anti-God Arts all along for the past few months, Damien already learned that its first skill, Undying Wrath, involved Destruction and Chaos Laws.
As for his second skill, Shackles of Death, it mainly made use of Death Laws, and so he wondered which of these three laws his third skill, Shadow Of Time, might use.
But he knew he need not think about his third skill now, thinking that his third skill requires his cultivation to be even higher.
Each time he broke through, he would keenly observe his soul plane to see if the seal of his third skill would come off, but to his disappointment, it seemed that his cultivation was not enough.
He decided to focus on his current skills, and Luna also told him something that he could make use of right after he breakthroughs before his match with Roy.
Although she said it would be a bit risky, Damien didn't mind it and was confident that it would be worth it.
He decided to take a short break from going to the Forsaken and already informed them of it, and they understood as everyone knew a heated battle was upcoming between Damien and Roy.
Damien wanted to spend that time as well absorbing the life essences he had stored in his ethereal core and also to make sure that his foundation doesn't become unstable after his consecutive breakthroughs.
He knew if he sped it up, then his ethereal foundation wouldn't be firm as steel. But this made him wonder how long it would take for him to cultivate to higher realms as he knew the higher his cultivation becomes, the more time he would take to breakthrough to higher levels.

But he noticed that he would even take more time than Valentina to breakthrough unless he absorbed the life essences of the highest quality possible.
The lower the quality of the life essence he has, then the slower his breakthroughs would be. Fortunately, this time he was able to absorb Sky Ethereal Realm beasts' life essences, although not much in quantity.
He knew as his cultivation increases, the less he would be able to depend on Misty. For instance, once his cultivation reaches Misty's level, he would need to find a new ethereal beast even more powerful than Misty so that he could use it to kill more ethereal beasts and absorb their life essences.
His ethereal core was too small and weak to hold anymore. Still, he was satisfied with what he already had and diligently cultivated and trained as two weeks passed in the blink of an eye.
The day before the match, during the evening after he finished his discussion with Reva, she asked, "Tomorrow, you have your challenge with Roy, right?"
Damien nodded, "Yes. It's time I got it over with."
Reva's brows pulled together, "But are you sure you would be able to defeat him? He is someone who is listed in the Eternal Hall of Fame, ranked 35th. I know you are very strong compared to someone of the same cultivation as yours. With your current cultivation and your monstrous talent, your combat prowess would at best be at the Low Levels of the Earth Ethereal Realm, right?"
Damien softly smiled, seeing the slight worry in her eyes, "It's nothing to be worried about. Yes, with my current cultivation at the First Level of the Spirit Ethereal Realm, I can face someone at the First Level of the Earth Ethereal Realm without getting defeated. But tomorrow, I will be fine. You can come and watch if you want."
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "64cc9e79c7059f003e4ad4b0", id: "pf-5109-1"})Reva's expression became hesitant as she still didn't feel convinced and wondered why he was not at all worried about tomorrow's match.
She finally sighed as she said, "Okay, I will believe you. Just don't get hurt tomorrow. Roy Clive is not someone who will show any mercy to his opponents no matter who they are. He won't even hesitate to deal a death blow, especially if someone didn't have any backing. So I hope you have thought this through well and know what you are doing."
Damien chuckled as he said, "Of course. I might be arrogant but not stupid."
He walked closer to her, which made her move her feet back slightly. His lips arched into a charming smile as he said, "Say if I win tomorrow's match. Would I get any gift from you?"
Reva narrowed her eyes, wondering what he was up to this time, "And why would you need any gift from me?"
Damien shrugged his shoulders as he said, "You know, maybe it could motivate me even further to win."
Reva's eyes shifted towards the side momentarily as she thought about it and said with a soft smile, "Okay. I will give you a gift but only if you win. Otherwise, you can forget about it."
Damien smiled, "That's a promise."
The next morning, Damien finally woke up feeling his cock being enveloped in some wet, soft, and warm feeling.
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "663633fa8ebf7442f0652b33", id: "pf-8817-1"})He opened his eyes and didn't feel surprised to see Valentina greedily sucking on his hot rod as if she was famished for days.
She slowly looked over to him and took out his cock from his mouth as she smiled cutely, "Big Brother, did I wake you?"
Damien softly laughed and said, "You sure know creative ways to wake me up. Anyway, we usually wake up at this time. Enough tasting my cock. We have people to beat up today."
"Mn," Valentina smiled as she felt her hands tingling with excitement, looking forward to her match with Dennisa. She couldn't wait to show her who the boss was.
She got off the bed buck naked and licked her hands as if she finished having a delicious meal while walking to the bathroom.
He felt a little blue balled, having his cock sucked by a beauty and stopping halfway, but he knew now was not the time to relax in his villa as some exciting things were going to happen today.
Despite having a big match today, Damien's face didn't contain the slightest of nervousness or worry as if he was highly confident of the outcome today.
He got off the bed and joined Valentina for a quick bath as usual, where they messed with each other for a short while before getting out.
Just as he reached the Xeton Ethereal Foundation, Damien made his way towards the arena grounds, where spars were usually held with a number of seats surrounding the arena as many would like to come and watch some interesting spars.
Even some friendly challenges would be held, and no death matches were allowed, no matter how much enmity one had with another.
As the huge arena with an area of over 250,000 sq. meter came within his sight, and the most amazing thing was there were more than one arenas with the same area within the whole compound.
Damien knew that this was where all the sparring competitions were held between young practitioners, and obviously, more than one match may take place at a time, and the people can even watch them all at the same time as well.
But seeing the arena being surrounded by the bustling crowd and hearing their excited talks, he felt that today the arena was very livelier than usual. Numerous crowds of people were densely packed with the arenas at their center.
He was sure that at least 80% of the students were here as the whole area was wrapped by people so tight it was impenetrable.
After all, today was the date of two exciting battles involving two genius heirs from two of the top families of the Xeton Empire versus the new emerging super-geniuses.
However, in the hearts of most people, the main characters today were Roy, Dennisa, and Valentina, as some wanted to catch a glimpse of the elegant prowess of two of their senior Elite disciples ranked in the Eternal Hall of Fame list, while others wanted to witness the intoxicating and deadly beauty of Valentina at least from afar as they didn't want to get close to her and have their balls smashed into a pulp.
As for Damien, a minority were interested in seeing whether the rumors of his talent being ridiculous and shocking were true or not and to witness the prowess of his lightning seed as they had never seen one before in their lives.
However, none of them even had a thought that Damien had a chance of winning against Roy, and instead, they were thinking about how Roy was going to exact his payback on Damien for insulting him.
