They were like lonely ghosts, wandering between worlds and constantly completing the tasks given to them by the Cube in exchange for rewards and greater power.
Their strength was divided into clear ranks, from one to nine. Each rank marked a new realm, with every step taking them closer to the heavens.

Within the Cube, all the worlds in the heavens were divided into four tiers, from lowest to highest: Human, Earth, Heaven, and Absolute.
The world before them was only a Human-tier world, one that could accommodate power up to the second rank at most.
At this, the four men couldn't help groaning inwardly. Four third-rankers could walk all over a Human-tier instance. Who could have guessed they'd run into a fifth-ranker in such a low-level instance?

Both cast their nets across the heavens, secretly siphoning the origins of various worlds to nourish themselves. The only difference was that one used people as its medium, while the other used a system as its
