Chapter 173: The Battle Looms as Eslar's Rules Reach New Heights
The Eslar Continent's world rules were rapidly advancing.
From Upper Deity, the rules rose to Celestial Deity, and finally to True Deity.
Time passed, and after more than an hour, the lightning in the sky of the Eslar Continent gradually dissipated.
The world's rules settled at the level of Nine-Star Deity King.
"Is it stopping here? I thought it would reach the Deity Emperor level," Sylvus said, seeing the fading lightning and the multicolored rain that was gradually coming to an end.
"Reaching the Deity King level probably consumed a massive amount of resources. If they pushed further, the Divine Realm couldn't handle it," Deced replied.
"Deity King it is, then. At least the beings on the Eslar Continent gained a lot of benefits from this," Sylvus said with a smile.
With this upgrade, the creatures across the Eslar Continent had significantly advanced in their cultivation levels.
Sylvus could sense powerful auras rising across the continent.
"Boss, the Sky-Connecting Formation has ended. At the most, the Fallen Temple's people will arrive in two hours. Many of those coming are Deity Kings," Deced said with a frown.
"What's this? Are you scared?" Sylvus asked teasingly.
Deced shook his head.
"Not scared, but at my current level, if I face a Deity King, all I can do is run."
He was currently at the True Deity level, while Deity Kings were a whole realm above him.
Even though he was the Demon Lord of his tribe, he still couldn't resist overwhelming power.
"If they dare come, they won't be leaving alive," Sylvus said calmly.
Deced was momentarily stunned.
Earlier, Sylvus had seemed indifferent to their matters. Now it appeared he was willing to help?

Sylvus didn't explain further.
If it weren't for the system task, he wouldn't have intervened.
But the Forbidden Codex Fragment was something he couldn't pass up.
Before long, the sound of people flying through the air echoed.
Looking up, Sylvus saw countless figures arriving from all directions.
It was Elena and the others.
Compared to before, their strength had improved significantly.
Elena and Ronald had even reached the Celestial Deity level.
Sylvus felt a tinge of envy.
If he were a native of this world, perhaps his own level would have risen to True Deity by now.
"Boss, I didn't expect your methods to be so powerful, allowing the Eslar Continent's rules to upgrade once again. Our levels have improved a lot too."
As they gathered in front of Sylvus, Elena and the others looked at him with admiration.
They had always known Sylvus was extraordinary, but to raise the world's rules so casually, even a Deity Emperor couldn't do that, right?
"This time, it wasn't me. It was your old friends," Sylvus said with a laugh, shaking his head.
"It wasn't you?"
The group was surprised.
When they saw the world's rules upgrading again, their first thought was Sylvus, as he had done the same thing last time.
But they hadn't expected it to be someone else.
Elena and Ronald were also puzzled by Sylvus' mention of "old friends."
They looked toward Deced, hoping he would explain.
"It was the Fallen Angel Tribe," Deced said.
"The Fallen Angels?"
Elena and the others were shocked.
They had considered all sorts of possibilities, but they never thought it would be the Fallen Angels.
After all, the Fallen Angels were their enemies.
Why would they help upgrade the world's rules in Eslar?
"Could it be... they're coming here?" Elena was the first to realize the reason.
She remembered the group of Fallen Angels that had come to Eslar a few days ago, only to be wiped out by Deced.
It was clear now that the Fallen Angels had upgraded Eslar's rules to allow their stronger forces to enter and massacre them.
"That's right. They'll be here in no more than two hours," Deced nodded.
The group's joy quickly turned to grim expressions.
Though their strength had increased, they knew that the Fallen Angels would send even more powerful beings this time.
With their current abilities, if they faced the strong forces of the Fallen Angel Tribe, there was only one possible outcome: death!
"Boss, what should we do?" Elena asked, her brow furrowed. At this point, the only one they could rely on was Sylvus.
"I'll help you this time, but I have one condition," Sylvus said with a smile.
Hearing Sylvus' words, their eyes lit up.
If the boss was going to step in, they wouldn't have to fear anymore.
"Boss, tell us, how many divine crystals do you need?" Ronald gritted his teeth and asked.
In his mind, Sylvus surely wanted more money.
If they could survive this ordeal, they'd be willing to give as many divine crystals as it took.
"Forget the divine crystals. I want you to kill all the Fallen Angels. Remember, leave none alive," Sylvus said calmly.
Elena and Ronald were taken aback.
They hadn't expected this request from Sylvus.
Even if Sylvus hadn't asked, they had already intended to wipe out the Fallen Angels.
"Boss, we can agree, but with our current strength..."
Elena smiled bitterly. If they had the power to destroy the Fallen Angels completely, they wouldn't need Sylvus' help in the first place.
"If I'm not mistaken, your tribe's homeland is in the Divine Realm. Once you return to your homeland, you'll naturally become stronger. I'll also take care of the top powerhouses of the Fallen Angel Tribe for you," Sylvus said.
Elena's eyes lit up.
If that were the case, then there would be no issue.
Once the top powerhouses of the Fallen Angels were eliminated, they could easily deal with the rest.
"Boss, the Angel Tribe has a homeland to return to for strength (how lucky), but our Titan Tribe doesn't have such luck. After all, we're already in our homeland," Ronald said.
The Eslar Continent was once the homeland of the Titan Tribe.
However, their ancestors hadn't left any powerful means behind.
The ancestors believed the younger generations should cultivate slowly and steadily in their homeland. Over time, they would naturally grow stronger.
But now, there wasn't enough time.
"You can stay on the continent and finish building my skyship," Sylvus said, glancing at Ronald.
His skyship wasn't even finished yet, and Ronald thought he could escape?
Ronald nodded.
Although he couldn't go to the Divine Realm to fight, at least he had something to do.
As they were talking, a spatial rift appeared in the sky.
Powerful auras emerged one after another.
The group furrowed their brows. They knew the strong forces of the Fallen Angel Tribe had arrived.
