Reborn with Infinity Skill Points, I Enslaved All Universes-Chapter 226 --The Collapse of Glaton

Glaton was absolutely convinced that Daniel wouldn’t dare kill him—not when he still needed the Book of Souls.

That was the only reason he dared to take the risk and try to bargain with Daniel, hoping to leverage what little power he had left.

However, before he could even state his terms—

The next moment, Daniel slashed a barrage of deep wounds across his body without the slightest hesitation.

Glaton froze instantly, completely dumbfounded by the sudden full-on assault.

What...?

Why wasn’t Daniel following the script?!

All he did was try to make a condition—was that really such an unforgivable offense?

"Daniel! What are you doing?! Don’t you want the Book of Souls anymore?!" Glaton shouted in disbelief.

But the only response he received was Daniel’s icy voice.

"I suddenly lost interest in your things."

Glaton couldn’t believe what he was hearing.

He had never expected that Daniel would just give up on the Book of Souls like that.

Caught completely off guard, Glaton was left reeling.

Who the hell negotiates like this? And who gives up on an artifact like the Book of Souls so easily?!

Though Daniel’s attack didn’t inflict much actual pain—almost no physical sensation at all—the effect it had on his sanity meter was catastrophic.

And now, Daniel was fighting like a complete berserker—going all-in with pure offense and not even bothering with defense.

At this moment, Daniel’s intent was clear: he wanted Glaton dead.

From Daniel’s perspective, Glaton had outlived his usefulness.

Meanwhile, Glaton was in full panic.

Sanity -0.1%...

Sanity -0.1%...

Sanity -0.1%...

Watching his sanity deplete at a visible rate, Glaton made a snap decision to teleport back into his private vault.

He couldn’t fight Daniel. His only option was to flee and buy more time.

Sure, he would die eventually—but if he could hold out a little longer, maybe he’d find a way to break the contamination curse.

"Damn it! That Daniel is completely insane!"

"What now? He really seems dead set on killing me!"

Even though he had temporarily escaped, Glaton didn’t feel even a hint of relief.

Because for him, the top priority remained unchanged: removing the persistent contamination debuff.

If he couldn’t purge it in time, he would lose his mind and descend into madness within a matter of days.

But...

Who could possibly help him?

In this moment of silence, regret surged through Glaton’s soul.

He had underestimated Daniel. He shouldn’t have provoked him—not with that kind of madness behind those eyes.

Just as he thought he’d earned a moment’s safety, the space in front of him began to warp.

Then, in the blink of an eye, a familiar figure appeared right before him.

It was none other than Daniel.

He had used Flashback to instantly teleport into Glaton’s treasure vault.

Although this was an independent space, it still belonged to the Undead Lands’ dimensional plane.

And so, Daniel could use Flashback to arrive here instantly.

Seeing Daniel again, Glaton reacted as if he’d seen a ghost—which was ironic, considering he was technically the ghost here.

"How did you get in here?!" he screamed, his face pale with terror and disbelief.

How could Daniel possibly know the coordinates to this sealed space? That should’ve been impossible!

Daniel didn’t bother explaining. He wasn’t interested in answering Glaton’s pointless questions.

Instead, he waved his hand—and thirty-two Spirits of Skills appeared instantly around him.

Because [Mind Hunt] was an offensive-type buff, it could still be triggered through summoned skills.

However, from previous testing, Daniel knew that more dispersed attacks led to lower Mind Hunt effects.

So unless Glaton took the full brunt of a skill like [Meteor Arrow Rain], it wouldn’t cause the full 0.1% sanity loss per hit.

Still, the psychological impact of thirty-two Spirits of Skills unleashing Meteor Arrow Rain all at once was overwhelming.

The entire space was blanketed with raining arrows—no gaps, no hiding spots.

At this point, Glaton felt like he was doomed.

He had lived for millennia, enjoying the longevity of a demigod rank being.

But even so, he did not want to vanish completely.

Yes, he was already dead once, but Glaton didn’t want to experience true erasure.

Daniel’s assault was relentless, like a torrential downpour of death. Glaton did everything he could to evade the barrage, but it was useless.

In just a few seconds, his sanity had already dropped by one-third.

Then Daniel noticed something new appear on Glaton’s status interface.

[Mental Contamination: Successfully Infected]

[Contamination Level: Basic (Mild Confusion)]

Perhaps realizing the shift in his condition, Glaton panicked again and hastily opened another teleportation gate, escaping from Daniel once more.

Daniel, however, didn’t bother chasing him this time.

He simply returned to the City of the Undead.

But when he arrived, he discovered something odd.

Using Eye of Insight, he scanned the area—but Glaton was nowhere to be found.

Apparently, the old ghost had really managed to slip away.

Daniel scratched his head in slight frustration.

A demigod rank being like Glaton, capable of instantaneous spatial travel, was notoriously difficult to pin down.

In contrast, Daniel could only teleport to locations he had already visited—he couldn’t lock onto Glaton’s position directly.

Still, this outcome wasn’t entirely unexpected.

Since chasing him down was futile, Daniel simply gave up the pursuit.

Instead, he used a God Rank Skill to transform his appearance.

The next moment, a familiar figure—"Glaton"—appeared once more in the City of the Undead.

"From this moment on, I am the new Lord of the City of the Undead."

In fact, once Daniel assumed Glaton’s form, he also inherited all of Glaton’s authority over the city.

The experience was strikingly similar to what he had done in Artist City before.

Using Flashback again, Daniel teleported to the city’s central control altar.

This was the hub where all lord-level permissions were managed.

Daniel’s goal was simple: just like back in Artist City, he intended to transfer the highest authority to himself.

"I want to modify the lord’s permissions."

He entered the command and waited silently.

Meanwhile, in a distant, unknown location—

Glaton shuddered, as if sensing that something important was being taken from him...
