The soldier bowed quickly and departed.
Meanwhile, Kiara reopened the inventory while muttering beneath her breath,
"The five-minute luck timer still hasn't ended… And the transformation begins right now…"
Her lips slowly curved upward.
"So maybe, the heavens are indicating that this is an opportunity..."
Meanwhile...
At Mt. Philanos itself...
The volcano no longer resembled a mountain. The entire summit had collapsed into a massive ocean of molten rock glowing like liquid sunlight beneath the darkening sky.
At the center...
The gigantic lava pillar slowly began changing shape.
Molten rock twisted.
Compressed.
Then expanded.
In the end, a massive humanoid outline gradually emerged from the blazing inferno.
Seven kilometers away from the pillar, in the two o'clock direction...
A group from the Iron Warriors Clan remained stationed there.
Seven Spirit Warriors.
The weakest among them stood at a peak 7-star rank.
Their leader possessed a low 9-star rank cultivation.
