The contents of the Main Quest were within expectations. The remaining two portions of Dark Blood were in the hands of the Ancient King and the Firstborn of Darkness. However, compared with fighting the Ancient King, Su Xiao was more willing to clash with the Firstborn of Darkness.
The Witch Realm was the birthplace of the Dark God Cult. This had been confirmed by numerous related records. For that reason, the Dark God Cult here was harder to deal with than those in other Transcendent-Original Worlds, and it was also divided into three factions.
In the current era, the leaders of these three factions were the Dark Twins, Black Hole (the new generation), and the Firstborn of Darkness.
The one he should be dealing with this round was the Firstborn of Darkness, because the difficulty curve of this Main Quest was gentle and gradually rising. This could be seen from the opponents in the previous four stages.
1. The Dark Twins.
2. Black Hole (the new generation).
3. Berserk Sha.
4. Strongest Filthied One Prophet.
There was nothing wrong with the strength rankings of the first three. Although Sha had not advanced to the Absolute Power level long ago, her ability system was absurdly troublesome: a steady close-combat Grandmaster ability paired with an especially shameless time-type ability. If she had not encountered Su Xiao, Sha would not have been beaten so badly.

As for why the Strongest Filthied One Prophet, who was stronger than the Firstborn of Darkness, ranked fourth,
