"It will be difficult to survive if go near Marble City. Marble will be there to reinforce Light." Rhachis Ancestor Wave said, unwilling to put itself in that much danger.

"Can you attack Marble City from here?" Rhachis Ancestor gazed towards west, alert to defend against any attacks.

"I can, but their power would be severely reduced by the time they reach Marble City. It won't make a dent on their barrier unless I spam attacks while Marble takes a leisure break. We are too far apart." Rhachis Ancestor Wave muttered, the water surrounding it rippling once before increasing in size.

"What you have to do is simple. Make it rain over Marble City. The Swarm is from the sea. The seawater will energise them and make their attacks stronger. With a strong enough downpour, the attacks of the Swarm would increase in might. And, to avoid this situation, Marble would have to divert his attention to intercept your attacks." Rhachis Ancestor Warlord said, chuckling as it clenched its hand into a fist.

It began to fly westward, "I and Web will attack Marble City to keep Light's attention away from here. Wave, you make as big of a barrier as you can to protect our target while launching attacks at Marble City. As for Spindle, come with me."

Without any hesitation, Rhachis Ancestor Spindle accompanied Rhachis Ancestor Warlord, leaving the protection of its base to Rhachis Ancestor Wave.

They were peak existences surrounding Marble City for centuries.

The individual strength of their respective race wasn't strong enough to resist Rhachis Ancestor Light. So, they always cooperated, coming to the other's rescue the moment Rhachis Ancestor Light made a move on any race. That was how they remained alive for so long.

The four Frenzy Beast races didn't have shared borders, so the conflict between them was minimal. The one sandwiched in the middle was Marble City, their collective foe. So, after cooperating on numerous occasions, they were able to trust one another.

Besides, all of them were capable of looking at the big picture. The birth of another Ancestor would ease their lives more. Moreover, the Spindle Bees only had one Ancestor. So even if they gained a second Ancestor, they wouldn't be stronger than the other races individually.

Among them, the cooperation with the Lava Turtles was the lowest. Lava Turtles were a race that were willing to leave at a moment's notice should the situation turn dire. Therefore, Rhachis Ancestor Earth had only cooperated with them occasionally.

Leaving the defence of its territory and the being that had attempted a breakthrough to Tier 6, Rhachis Ancestor Spindle flew without worries. The entire race of Spindle Bees had taken flight, protecting their territory from the Swarm.

Among them, a significant amount of Spindle Bees had attempted a breakthrough, with more than 10 Tier 5 beings attempting a shot at Tier 6. It was both a camouflage for the real candidate and to reinforce it in the Mental Realm.

'Hopefully, they can serve as the distraction and take the fall under Light's attacks.' Rhachis Ancestor Spindle increased its speed, barely avoiding a light eagle that flew its way. Rhachis Ancestor Warlord too dodged it, commenting, "Light is conserving most of his strength. If he had launched them at the speed of light, we wouldn't have been able to dodge it."

"Every attack on that level consumes a tremendous amount of energy. And, even if he launches them, the impact wouldn't kill us immediately. And, he is saving his energy to defend against a possible attack from Lord Parasite. He also needs a contingency measure against the Swarm." Rhachis Ancestor Spindle commented, its body shielded by a layer of green. Dense energy radiated from it, something it had condensed for more than a decade.

It was the source of its confidence to survive a full-powered attack from Rhachis Ancestor Light, "Because of this, I can recover from any kind of damage."

Rhachis Ancestor Spindle poised its stinger forward, shooting forth hundreds of spindles every second. They formed a needle storm as they flew towards Marble City at blinding speeds, not inferior to the spear Rhachis Ancestor Light had thrown.

Seeing the hail of spindles, Rhachis Ancestor Light frowned, "They are getting serious, Marble. What is the status of our south-east? Any sign of movement from them?"

"Crash is coming over. It seems Parasite dispatched it first. On our west, Web is also making its way towards us. A battle is imminent, Light. I can't extend myself beyond the city walls. But, try to keep the fight above our city. That place is still within my reach." Psychic Ancestor Marble said.

"Now is not the time for a decisive fight. We need time for Strongest to mature." Psychic Ancestor Marble commented, "Besides, the situation in the waters is turning dangerous."

"Alright, I myself am tired. If they try to attack us, we would need all our strength to defend against them. The Spindle Bees chose a rather perfect time to make their breakthrough." Rhachis Ancestor Light sighed, waving his hand to create a massive film of light, defending against the hail of spindles. The moment the spindles touched the film of light, sparks were emitted from it, shredding them into numerous pieces.

Not one spindle managed to get through. Instead of Marble City, Rhachis Ancestor Spindle was actually aiming at the Swarm surrounding it. On seeing that Rhachis Ancestor Light managed to easily block it, Rhachis Ancestor Spindle gritted its forming human-like teeth.

"Marble City won't interfere with the birth of the Spindle Bee Ancestor." Rhachis Ancestor Light's voice resounded, travelling east as the two Ancestors heard it.

Rhachis Ancestor Warlord immediately stopped, no longer trying to fly forward. Rhachis Ancestor Spindle too stopped, the two of them gazing towards their west in confusion. After the statement, they saw a streak of light enter Marble City, signalling that Rhachis Ancestor Light had retreated.

"It might be a trap. It's for the best we wait." Rhachis Ancestor Warlord spoke, "Besides, our objective is to stall for time. As long as we can achieve it, everything would be fine."

"This is the first time Marble City behaved like this. When the Floating Spiders were birthing their fourth Ancestor, Marble City brought out most of its strength to stop it." Rhachis Ancestor Spindle was at a loss, unwilling to believe Rhachis Ancestor Light retreated just like that.

"Times are different," Rhachis Ancestor Warlord gazed towards the south, noticing many existences slowly exit the waters. They had been lured by the commotion earlier. Each of them were massive beings, possessing hundreds of mysterious abilities.

Among them, quite a few had reached the realm of Tier 6 while the rest were on the cusp of achieving it. 100…200…300…seeing their numbers, Rhachis Ancestor Warlord's body shook, trembling as the emotion of fear suffused it. "H-How are there so many Skeps?"

Just at this time, a being silently made its arrival, coming to a stop beside Warlord, also noticing the situation. Its tiny body shuddered in fright, "How come there are so many Skeps. From where did they appear all of a sudden?"

"We have no idea either," Rhachis Ancestor Warlord replied, "They are suddenly popping up one after another the moment they sensed the breakthrough aura."

Rhachis Ancestor Spindle's body shuddered as its feminine voice leaked out, "So, that's why Marble City retreated."

"I will alert my lord of their numbers and return," Saying its piece, Psychic Ancestor Crash disappeared.

Rhachis Ancestor Warlord raised its hand, weaving a silk ball before throwing it west. The silk ball sped through the air, its path an upward curve due to its floating property. Marble City didn't block it as the silk ball flew above it.

Finally, the silk ball approached a massive silk sphere. It was the Web World, home of Rhachis Ancestor Web. A silk rope extended from it and grabbed hold of the silk ball, reading the contents within. The entire Web World trembled, its gigantic frame unleashing numerous twisters as a result.

Without further ado, it flew west, returning to the Floating Spider territory. With the appearance of the third party, their battle came to a halt before it even started.

Mount Nilgiris, Marble City; seated within a palace atop the artificial mountain was Rhachis Ancestor Light and Psychic Ancestor Marble. The two had noticed the situation in the south, conversing rapidly as they formulated a plan of action.

"It is best we stay put for the time being. Fighting the Skeps might even cripple our foundation. Our scouts failed to sense their staggering numbers. It seems the Skeps are already capable of shielding themselves from our detection methods." Psychic Ancestor Marble's tone was tinged with alarm.

A table formed between them, creating the landscape of their subcontinent, including the large water mass below. The figures of all the Skeps that made their appearance now was outlined.

Rhachis Ancestor Light looked at them, pointing at a few, "I remember seeing these in the Lace Wave. So they have already entered the realm of Tier 6."

"Just barely but indeed, you're right." Psychic Ancestor Marble focused on the remaining figures, "Most of them seem new, they hadn't made their appearance even once. But…"

His attention was focused on a certain Skep that was still hidden beneath the water, with only its eye peeking out. After a second, his expression was filled with shock as the marble figure formed 50 kilometres above Marble City, gazing towards the south.

"That…damn thing is actually alive." The marble figure's expression was full of shock and fear, soon overwhelmed by anger. The walls of Marble City resonated with his anger, shimmering with aura waves that he reined within, unwilling to unleash it for the time being.

Followed by a streak of light, Rhachis Ancestor Light materialised beside the marble figure, following its line of sight. The moment he saw the entity hiding under the ocean, rage clouded his mind.

"Skep Primogenitor!" The entire sky was filled with light, turning night into day. Rhachis Ancestor Light flashed through space, appearing above the ocean water, condensing a massive blade of light in his hands, slashing into the water.
