Solanky then waved his hand, and then the velvet dome disappeared without a trace, and the lifeless bodies of the officiator and her clansmen fell from the skies. After fracturing the consciousness and soul of the female officiator, the golden bead embedded in her chest spun out of control as it sucked in the remaining life essence she had, killing her on the spot.
Solanky, seeing this, sighed and turned to leave, but the moment he did so, he heard Supremo's voice rang in his consciousness, telling him to destroy the golden bead with the blade. Without wasting much time, Solanky pierced the lifeless chest of the officiator where the gold bead was, and the blade's tip touched the ball's surface. As the blade touched the golden bead, there seemed to be an unknown force repelling the blade's tip from making contact with the golden bead. Solanky applied all his strength to push the blade further until the opposite force couldn't keep on repelling it; the blade pierced through the golden bead, destroying it.
Supremo's voice then rang out once and said, "Leave this place at once; there are three half-step peak-turn beings from the clan approaching several billions of light-years away. Your speed alone isn't enough; use the golden boots you obtained in the city of Abope. The true peak-turn being behind them has noticed the destruction of the golden bead and has sent them to investigate." Without wasting much time, Solanky put on the golden boots and activated the void shadow steps. Solanky noticed the difference as the golden boots increased and masked his speed, making it difficult for any being beneath the peak-turn level to detect and trace his whereabouts.
After Solanky left, several beings who followed behind the officiator's clansmen entered the space and saw their lifeless bodies with all their treasures intact. They then started fighting amongst themselves to obtain the treasures left behind. All of a sudden the space shook violently, and three figures clad in silvery robes appeared above them. The beings fighting for the treasures, seeing the three silver-robed figures, began to flee in terror, as they knew that these three beings were all half-step peak-turn beings from the camp of these lifeless beings they were fighting over.
One of the silver-robed figures clenched his fist, and the space and time of the 32nd zone were frozen, making it impossible for any being to escape without alerting him. But Solanky, with his golden boots, had already escaped the 32nd zone and had even escaped the 33rd zone and was already in the 34th zone. Thanks to Supremo, he was able to escape this terror. The half-step peak-turn beings waved their hands, and the lifeless bodies of their clansmen disappeared, and the destroyed golden bead flew towards them. One of the silver-robed beings grabbed the golden bead and closed his eyes; after a while, he opened them and pointed in the direction Solanky escaped to.
The three silver-robed figures disappeared from the mountain range and appeared before the portal leading to the 33rd zone, completely ignoring the saint emperors who were arguing about the treasures of their clansmen. They stepped through the portal and sealed the space and time of the zone, making it difficult for other beings beneath the half-step peak-turn to escape or move. The silver-robed figure with the broken golden bead shared Solanky's appearance and aura with the other two silver-robed figures. The silver-robed figure was able to tell all that happened to his clansmen because the moment the officiator was about to lose her consciousness, she imprinted Solanky's appearance and aura onto the golden bead.
But the moment Solanky destroyed the golden bead, the aura imprinted on the golden bead was completely altered as the blade broke and erased some of the imprint, making it incomplete. So the three silver-robed figures only had the appearance of Solanky and an incomplete aura, which wasn't easy to tell from the real one even if they came into contact with Solanky.
Supremo's voice rang once more in his consciousness, telling him to alter his appearance and change his robes. Solanky did as he was told to do so because he trusted Supremo's judgement and knew he could only rely on him now. Solanky changed his appearance to look like a special lifeform with a long scaly tail behind him with two pairs of wings and a single horn protruding from his forehead with a bulky humanoid body with a jade azure blue skin tone. This disguised stood several hundreds of kilometers tall with the strength of 9.5 billion ISG. Solanky had put away the golden boots and put on his most powerful treasure, which was the pair of wings on his back. Beforehand, Supremo transmitted a control manual to his consciousness on how he could utilize the power of the wings without making it obvious it was a treasure at the peak-turn level. Solanky's use of the wings made it natural, making it difficult for even true peak-turn beings beneath the sixth-turn to be able to detect any flaws in the control of the treasure.
Solanky sat down calmly with the wings folded behind him; suddenly he felt the space and time around him freeze, restricting him from moving. He knew that these were the half-step peak-turn beings Supremo had warned him about. The three silver-robed figures scanned the 34th zone with their spiritual sense, and they were startled the moment their scan brushed past Solanky. They all exchanged a look of shock and confusion with each other, as they never thought there would be a powerful special lifeform in this region, as they only heard in legends that every secret zone was guarded by a special lifeform saint emperor transcendent entity. From the legends, although these special lifeforms had the strength of a saint emperor, they were a little ahead in terms of life aura and essence with a half-step peak-turn spiritual body, which was much more powerful than most half-step peak-turn beings.
They unfroze the area Solanky sat in as per what their ancestor told them; offending these special lifeforms was a foolish idea, as these special lifeforms could utilize the power of the zone to crush them with ease, although they were one level above them. Solanky still sat unmoving with his eyes closed, completely ignoring them, making him look more mysterious, making the three silver-robed figures avoid direct contact with him as they searched for Solanky, not knowing the one they were looking for was just before them.
One of the silver-robed figures stopped in his tracks and told the others to move on to the 35th zone, as he suspected Solanky's disguise was nothing but a facade.
The other two told him to be careful and not hesitate to use the power of his halo the moment he falls into a desperate situation before stepping through the portal of the 35th zone. The silver-robed figure who was left behind locked down the space and time around Solanky, wanting to pressure him to reveal the true abilities of his special lifeform. The space and time around Solanky became stifling, as if the silver-robed figure wanted to crush him.
Special lifeform Solanky opened his eyes and sent a consciousness attack to the silver-robed figure. Being hit by the consciousness attack, the silver-robed figure lost his balance for a brief moment before he stabilized himself.
He then said to himself, "How can a being below the half-step peak-turn level shake my consciousness?" He then rushed towards Solanky, not with killing intent but with curiosity, as he wanted to find out what other special abilities he had. With the space and time still on lockdown and frozen, Solanky unfolded his wings behind him. The silver-robed man approaching Solanky stopped in his tracks as he felt the spatial-time lockdown around Solanky collapsing the moment the wings behind Solanky unfolded.
The silver-robed figure quickly understood that this special lifeform, the guardian of the 34th zone trump card, was the folded wings behind it; the wings weren't for decoration. But they were very crucial; that was why they remained folded even when the three half-step peak-turn appeared and locked the space and time. As it could escape and utilize the power of the space to counterattack. Solanky, with the wings unfolded, flapped them once, and he travelled at an incredible speed; even the silver-robed figure couldn't detect him until he made a stop several kilometers behind him.
The silver-robed figure was petrified, as he knew Solanky could inflict serious injuries on him without him being able to react in time even if he used the halo. He soon realized that this special lifeform had no interest or whatever in them the moment they appeared in the zone; if not, they would have lost to it. The silver-robed figure looking at Solanky with respect teleported to the portal his comrades passed through and also followed.
Solanky still noticed the silver-robed figure observing him spread his wings wide and dive into a river beside him, which completely masked his presence and aura. The silver-robed figure thought that anyone foolish enough to enter the river would meet its end, as special lifeforms guarded their resting spaces fiercely. Without wasting much time, it disappeared from the 34th zone and joined the other two silver-robed figures in the 35th zone in search of Solanky.
