The forces of the Skysand Kingdom retreated towards the other unsafe Ether Essence in the central landmass.
They would keep defending this one, hoping that the enemy wouldn't push their attack.
The other unsafe Ether Essence was about 300 kilometers away from the other one, and this distance gave the Winterfire Kingdom another choice.
Should they eradicate the elite of the Skysand Kingdom and risk the birth of a new Transcendent, or directly go for the new Transcendent?
While it was a choice, it was about as difficult to make as a choice between getting a thousand bucks for free or ten thousand.
The Winterfire Kingdom rapidly charged towards the east, towards the Ether Essence that had the advancing Transcendent.
When the people of the Skysand Kingdom saw that they got to live another day, they released a deep sigh of relief.
The same Major General who had interrogated Kyle just a couple of years ago was present, and he was currently the person with the highest authority.
"You can start," the Major General transmitted to somebody.
"Okay," someone transmitted back.
Meanwhile, the forces of the Winterfire Kingdom closed in on the other Ether Essence.
The storm of Ether was getting more intense.
The person advancing was in the critical stage of advancement.
"Let me," the man with the Law of Lightning said with a chuckle as he pointed at the distant mountain.
Lightning gathered above the storm of Ether.
Then, just before the lightning struck down, the storm of Ether stopped.
BOOOOOOOM!
The lightning hit the ground, destroying everything around it.
The man with the Lightning Law just kept smirking as he watched the gigantic explosion.
"I have become- oh, wait!" he said, but then, he saw a man charging out of the crater.
The man was severely injured.
"Oh, hey! You're still alive!" the man with the Lightning Law transmitted to the fleeing man.
Just based on the Ether around the man, one thing was clear.
The breakthrough had failed.
The Ether inside the man's Center was in complete chaos due to the failed breakthrough.
He had far too much Ether inside of him for his Realm.
This destroyed the equilibrium between his Aspects of Power.
"That's the Crown Prince of Skysand," the General of Winterfire said.
"The Crown Prince?" the man with the Lightning Law asked. "I thought he wasn't so special."
"We were under the same impression," the General said.
The Crown Prince kept retreating. He was not in fighting condition.
"Stop playing around and do your job!" the General shouted at the man with the Lightning Law.
The man just snorted. "You better make this worth my time."
BANG!
At that moment, several streaks of lightning came out of the man's body, and he started to levitate.
The lightning connected to the ground, creating a magnetic force that pushed him into the air.
"Be right back," he said.
BANG!
Then, the man shot forward.
His speed climbed and climbed until he reached speeds of almost ten kilometers per second.
Nobody else in the Third Realm could reach such speeds.
Not even Kyle as a Peak Expert.
Within seconds, the man appeared in front of the Crown Prince.
The Crown Prince gritted his teeth as the ground around him lifted into the sky.
"I guess that's the Law of Earth?" the man asked.
The stones around the Crown Prince turned into weapons, which all shot at the man.
