Chapter 811: Third Heavenbreaker

"And?" Neo asked, looking straight at Veydran.

"I revealed Apollyon’s betrayal to the Martial King. He’s willing to help us take Apollyon down. He’ll send some powerful Martial Artists to assist during the final battle," Veydran replied.

Neo didn’t respond immediately. He kept walking, eyes forward, expression unreadable.

"And can the Martial Artists he sends stab us in the back?" Neo finally asked. "Because I’m not interested in repeating that mistake."

"No," Veydran said without hesitation. "The politics here aren’t tied to our Cosmos. To them, Apollyon is just a Martial Artist who crossed a line. Betraying the Martial King to side with Apollyon wouldn’t benefit them in any way."

Neo hummed quietly. That made sense.

At that moment, Vivi spoke up.

"The plan itself is simple. Once you regain enough strength, we gather all our combat power and ambush Apollyon. His act of contacting cultivators is a major form of treason here. No Martial Artist will stand with him after that."

"What about the cultivators?" Neo continued. "They’re the real problem. If the Heavenly Sect sends even one Fourth Step Cultivator, the entire Righteous Martial Alliance can be crushed overnight."

At those words, Vivi’s smile turned bitter.

Martial Arts (Extreme Arts) were powerful, but they had a ceiling.

No one could go beyond the Third Realm.

Those who tried died shortly after reaching it.

No one knew why.

Cultivators were different.

When a cultivator reached the Fourth Step, they underwent a qualitative change.

Their strength, mindset, and understanding all rose to a different level entirely.

It was widely known that even ten peak Third Step cultivators working together wouldn’t be able to leave a scratch on a newly advanced Fourth Step.

A truly powerful Fourth Step Cultivator could crush the entire Martial Alliance alone, whether Righteous Martial Alliance or Demonic Martial Alliance.

The only reason cultivators hadn’t already done so was Qi.

The lack of Qi in this world affected Fourth Step cultivators and above severely.

Sustaining their existence, let alone fighting at full power, consumed enormous amounts of energy. That was why most of them never left their abodes (home).

"They’ll send Third Step Cultivators to capture you. We can deal with those," Veydran said.

"And if they send a Fourth Step?" Neo asked.

"I doubt it," Veydran replied. "A Fourth Step Cultivator fighting at full power would drain too much Qi from the environment. That would cause backlash from every other cultivator in the region. The elders and the Sect Master of the Heavenly Sect would be affected too. They wouldn’t accept that kind of loss."

Neo nodded slowly.

"You know an awful lot about cultivators. And about what goes on inside their sects," he said.

Veydran tilted his head. "You don’t know yet?"

Neo blinked, realizing all at once that he was missing something important.

Before he could ask, Vivi spoke.

"Dad, there’s a Heavenbreaker inside the Heavenly Sect. He is the Third Heavenbreaker from our Cosmos. He’s giving us information in exchange for help building the Ultris Golem."

Neo stopped walking.

"The Ultris Golem?" he asked.

A familiar image surfaced in his mind, sharp and unwelcome.

Veydran nodded. "The Machine God became the Third Heavenbreaker. Later, he was taken in by the Heavenly Sect."

Neo’s expression darkened.

"What?"

He remembered the Machine God clearly.

During the war between the Universal Alliance and the Forgotten Suns, that man had supplied weapons in terrifying quantities.

Entire battlefields had been reshaped by his creations.

More than that, he was the one who created the Ultris Golem.

The same golem that had killed Neo’s friends.

When Neo reversed time and dragged the universe back, he had tried to seize the temporal strand of the Machine God as well.

He failed.
