Chapter 1029: Celestial Ranker

The ghostship rushed into Despair Abyss.

The interconnected root network made it the hardest abyss to invade. In the past, Varian fought the Undead here. And it's also here that he was thrown into the space crack and faced death. Even though he grew stronger, it was a horrifying experience.

Even more than Hortus itself, the journey there in that broken space tunnel was the stuff of nightmares.

Despite reaching the strength of a Sovereign, Varian wasn't sure if he could enter that tunnel and survive again.

Even for Sovereigns, the universe was far too hostile and dangerous. Especially things like space cracks. He might still survive but he'd end up in a land of nowhere with no path of return.

The one mainly responsible for pushing him to an almost certain death was killed. But the one who facilitated that wasn't dead yet.

"I've come to collect the debt you owe me." Varian's voice thundered above the Despair Abyss.
