Reborn with Infinity Skill Points, I Enslaved All Universes-Chapter 218 --Entering the Castle

As thoughts raced through Daniel’s mind, he couldn’t help but recall another continent—

The one overwhelmed by flesh and blood.

That grotesque Heart of Flesh seemed to fall under the same category as a Fake God.

But a Fake God, after all, was still fake. Its power, compared to a true god, was still a tier lower.

So now Daniel had a bold thought—

Could his newly acquired skill [Mind Hunt] also be effective against a Fake God?

And what about the high-ranking races that were about to descend—such as the Angels of Gold and Silver?

Could [Mind Hunt] affect them as well?

These questions and possibilities stirred wildly in Daniel’s mind.

In fact, one of the objectives listed in his Star Upgrade Quest was to kill a royal figure from a superior race.

And the Angel of Gold and Silver race—

To Daniel, they made for the perfect target.

Of course, all of this depended on one important detail: frёeωebɳovel.com

The ruler of the Angels of Gold and Silver must not be Goddess Aurelia, the Goddess of Gold & Silver.

If it were really her... then things would be far more complicated.

In that case, he’d have no choice but to look for a different high-ranking target.

But then again—

Strictly speaking, gods shouldn’t serve as rulers of any one race.

Once a being ascends to the status of god, their very essence changes.

They transcend the boundaries of race, leaving their original form behind.

Daniel pondered this for a moment.

Then, in a flash, he teleported back to the central district of Soul City.

At the same time, his mind power had already locked onto his next target:

[Target: Soul City Lord — Glaton]

Level: 300Current Jurisdiction: Soul City, City of LunarRank: DemigodAbilities: [ ... ]Description: A powerful soul-based entity who holds control over the Gate of Life. Any soul wishing to reincarnate must first receive Glaton’s permission.

Seeing this information, Daniel couldn’t help but frown.

Under his Eye of Insight, Glaton appeared as a massive soul creature resembling a gigantic centipede—

Towering nearly twenty meters tall, his form exuded a menacing authority.

What stood out most, however, was his rank—Demigod.

This was the first time Daniel had encountered a being ranked at the demigod level.

He instantly shifted into a more serious mindset and began scanning Glaton’s stats in greater detail using the Eye of Insight.

At the same time, Daniel moved in the direction of Glaton’s castle.

It took him only a few seconds to arrive outside the city lord’s fortress.

But when he reached the perimeter, he came to a deliberate stop.

Looking up, he saw layer upon layer of protective defensive formations, stacked like some enormous wedding cake of magic.

Daniel frowned.

"This city lord really is afraid of death, huh?"

Getting through these defensive layers wouldn’t be easy.

Daniel didn’t possess any specific skills designed to bypass defensive arrays.

If he wanted in, he’d have to brute-force his way through.

And normally, that was fine—

His usual strategy was simple: blast it apart.

Just unleash overwhelming force until the defenses crumbled.

But this time... things weren’t that straightforward.

These were no ordinary barriers.

They were demigod-level defensive arrays.

First, they weren’t so easy to destroy.

Second—even if you broke through one layer, there were still thousands more behind it.

"Damn it, not this crap again!"

Daniel’s eyes flashed with anger.

Back on the Flesh Continent, he had been blocked in the same way—

By layer upon layer of infuriating magical shields.

But now wasn’t the time to hesitate.

Just do it.

With a sweep of his hand, Daniel summoned 51 Spirits of Skills all at once.

Then, with a single command, a barrage of arrows—each streaking with shimmering light—descended upon the defensive formations in a storm.

[Meteor Arrow Rain].

Waves of soul energy rippled across the barrier.

Yet what felt unnatural to Daniel was the utter silence that followed.

Normally, when Meteor Arrow Rain was cast, it was accompanied by a deafening series of explosions.

But here, in the Undead Lands, everything was eerily quiet.

There were no sounds.

Daniel could see the violent detonations, but he couldn’t hear a single thing—

The absence of noise disturbed him deeply.

Still, the skill had worked wonders.

Dozens of shield layers were shattered in an instant.

Even the deeper barriers now showed dense networks of cracks.

Suddenly, a sharp voice echoed in Daniel’s mind:

"Who dares?!"

His attack had finally drawn Glaton’s attention.

The demigod’s immense mind power surged outward, flooding the area in an attempt to locate the source of the assault.

In the blink of an eye, Glaton’s psychic field engulfed Daniel’s position.

But because of the [Mist] effect surrounding him, Glaton found nothing.

Even so, Daniel had yet to find any trace of the Book of Souls.

After a few seconds of silent calculation, he decided to partially lift the mist shrouding his presence.

In an instant, his entire figure became visible within Glaton’s perception.

"So... it’s you," Glaton said, clearly surprised.

His tone immediately shifted into something more solemn.

"You may enter."

To Daniel’s astonishment, Glaton didn’t scold him for the attack.

He didn’t retaliate, didn’t raise any objections.

Instead, he extended an invitation.

And just like that, all the defensive formations surrounding the castle vanished.

Daniel frowned, confused.

He had expected Glaton to lash out in fury.

Instead, the city lord was acting calm.

Too calm.

Even going so far as to welcome him inside the very castle he had just tried to break into.

Daniel, however, felt no fear.

With confident strides, he walked straight through the now-unshielded gates and entered Glaton’s fortress.

Inside the grand hall, he finally saw Glaton in person.

Though the creature was made entirely of soul energy, he still appeared grotesquely obese—like a giant bloated maggot.

As Daniel stepped in, Glaton wriggled his massive body and spoke:

"You must be Daniel, am I right?"

Daniel was caught off guard.

The city lord of the Undead Lands... knew his name?

That made no sense.

Still, he maintained his usual composure and answered evenly:

"That’s right. I am."

Glaton let out a slightly smug chuckle.

"You must be wondering how I know who you are."

Daniel didn’t deny it.

He simply nodded and began strolling leisurely through the hall—

As if he didn’t regard Glaton as the host at all.

Glaton frowned slightly, sensing the lack of respect.

Still, he held his temper and continued:

"The world you come from—all those who die are under my dominion."

"I learned about you from the mouths of the dead."

"Daniel... You truly are an extraordinary individual."

"Which is why I’m allowing you into my castle."
