2022-03-13 21:52:24The method Clover mentioned dealing with Boot naturally involved using the obelisk. The obelisk was a top-tier soul artifact that could be used to absorb and refine the souls and life-force of living beings before purifying it for further use.
This artifact naturally had a suppressive effect on the souls of living beings and it was especially effective when used against undead creatures. That was why when clover revealed a trace of the obelisks aura from his body, Boot's had felt a terrible feeling from his soul and he had been greatly frightened.
Unfortunately, although the obelisk had a natural advantage over souls, it could be used to interrogate the souls that were captured in it, and it wasn't an artifact that specialized in torturing souls. Its only function was to refine and purify souls so other living beings could absorb them in order to increase the strength of their own souls and lengthen their life spans without any side effects.

Clover ignored Boot's ramblings and directly asked Ktulu if what he said was true. Not daring to delay, Ktulu quickly answered, "Everything I say is the truth and nothing but the truth. If I lie, may my soul forever wander the void, unable to find rest!"Ktulu swore an oath that he was telling the truth. He felt that this was the only way to assure Clover of his sincerity.Clover ignored the oath Ktulu made. He pointed at boot who was still rambling like a madman and asked once again, "You say you know the location of the treasures and he says that there is nobody except him who knows the location of the treasures. Who am I supposed among the two of you now?""Do you think swearing on your soul is enough to convince me that you're telling the truth? Come to think of it, you're very suspicious too. Why didn't you come out when I asked all of you previously and it was only when I was about to kill you all that you decided to show up? Do you think I am easy to fool
Immortal Destiny Impressive Ktulu
Clover was, of course, only scaring Ktulu, and he didn't have the intention of killing him. At least not anymore and not now. If it turns out that Ktulu was just lying to save his own skin, it was not too late for Clover to kill him then.Looking at the pitiful Ktulu that was cutting a sorry figure and begging to be spare, Clover finally put away the ball of energy in his hand to calm him down. It would be a pity if this person broke down due to fear before he could tell him the location of the treasures."Alright, you can stop begging now. I have decided to temporarily spare you, so you'd better cherish this kindness and obediently tell me the location of the treasure. Depending on your answer, if I like what I hear, I might just allow you to follow me from now on. That means I won't have to kill you, and not only that, if you perform well for me in the future, I will not mistreat you. Your life would definitely be better than it is now as a lowly pirate. do I make my
Immortal Destiny Ktulu's Story
Clover took a very good look at Ktulu for the first time and he reevaluated his previous expression of him in his mind before.How was this a boorish pirate that knew nothing but killing and plundering?Ktulu was obviously a skilled person who could definitely make an honest living with his ability. How did he end up like this in the first place?Clover was puzzled, but he put that question aside for the moment. Instead, he quickly praised Ktulu for a job well done."Well-done Ktulu... you have made me very surprised. I didn't know you were so skillful. You don't look like it at all, and you really had me fooled."After saying that, clover turned to look at boot who was still silent at the moment.Clover could not see his face, so he didn't know what his expression was like. But from the way his body was trembling forcefully, Boot was clearly enraged.He didn't seem to be able to hold himself back anymore, and he immediately started t
Immortal Destiny Boot's Death
"Yes, it is indeed very pitiful," Clover replied to Ktulu."In fact, after hearing your story, I believe you have more of a grudge with your former boss here than I do. Although he tried to rob and kill me, which is unforgivable, and he has to die, compared to you whose life had been completely derailed by him, mine grievance with him pales in comparison.""That's why I think you should be the one to kill him!" Clover said finally."Eh!"Ktulu was surprised... he could wrap his head around what Clover was saying."what do you mean, Lord?" Ktulu asked doubtfully, as he couldn't believe what he had heard just now."I mean exactly what I just said. You should be the one to kill him. It is just right since your grievance with him outweighs mine by a lot. So go on, I won't interfere at all. I will just watch from over here... or would you like me to hold him down for you?"Hearing lover's words again, Ktulu could finally believe that what
Immortal Destiny Clover's Fickle Nature
With the death of boot and the rest of the pirates, it put an end in this short episode of Clover's journey through the green river middle realm. Next, clover needed to fix the 'Going Broke' and set a course for the Houndclaw Space Station.Clover flew back to his spaceship while Ktulu followed behind him. Now that Ktulu had killed boot, he was very relaxed, as if a load had been taken off his shoulder. But when he thought about how he would be serving Clover from now on, Ktulu started to become nervous even more.This couldn't be helped... after spending many years with the Turk pirates and scheming to bring Boot down, Ktulu had cultivated a cautious personality and he always liked to overthink things a lot. Just like now, Ktulu was thinking about what kind of master Clover would be, and if he had any special habits and hobbies. He also wondered what his temper was like if Clover was easy-going or quick to get angry and if he would suddenly strike him dead should Ktul
Immortal Destiny Commencing Repairs
Just as Clover ordered, Ktulu stayed in a corner and didn't move at all. He didn't dare to! The only thing Ktulu could do was watch Clover as he worked on preparing the ship.In the end, Ktulu realized that Clover really didn't need his help at all. He was fully capable of fixing the ship on his own.As a cosmic Lifeform, Clover's strength was extraordinary, and he didn't need to fear going into space with his body at all. Unlike Ktulu who would need a spacesuit to be able to breathe in space and protect him from the cosmic and radioactive energies in space which would be very troublesome, Clover could just head out with his bare body to fix the external part of the ship that needed repairs.There was also Trudy who could run multiple calculations at the same time to repair and improve the core systems of the ship that had suffered damage and she could also carry out automated repairs on the ship by herself. As long as there were materials to use for the repairs
Immortal Destiny Ship's Repair Status
After Clover took a look at Ktulu, who was huddled in a corner outside the control room, he quickly ignored him and continued going on his way. When he reached the door of the control room, Ktulu finally noticed Clover, and he quickly straightened up and greeted him."Welcome back, my lord!""Hmm," Clover simply nonchalantly grunted in response before he entered the control room through the open door.With a swish, the control room door closed once again, blocking Ktulu outside. Ktulu could only sigh in exasperation at Clover's cold and nonchalant attitude towards him. Still, since there was nothing he could do, Ktulu could only suck it up and continue waiting outside the door.Inside the room, Clover was also sighing as he was a bit helpless about Ktulu's matter. It wasn't that Clover was being deliberately cold towards Ktulu. it was just that he didn't know what to do with him.Initially, bringing Ktulu on board his ship was just so he could tell
Immortal Destiny Doubt And Worries
"Trudy, set a course for the Houndclaw space station. It's time to find a place to land this ship," Clover instructed."Yes, Clover... already done. We just have to wait for a little time while I contain the remaining energy that leaked out of the core reactor," Trudy said."In the meantime, you look like you have a lot on your mind, Clover... may I ask what is bothering you?"Clover was surprised when he heard Trudy say this. Suddenly, he let out a wry smile as he said to Trudy."So you were able to notice... is it really that obvious?""No Clover, it isn't," Trudy replied."A person who doesn't know you well would not be able to notice if something was bothering you. But for those who are very familiar with you, they will be able to tell at a glance. That is why I was able to notice."Sigh!Clover sighed at Trudy's response. He did not answer immediately, but instead stayed at the ceiling of the control room as he organized h

Pride Comes Before The Fall
Before Ktulu was able to call out, the Vogul had already grabbed Clover by his shoulder. He was just about to pull Clover to his side when suddenly, Ktulu, with fear and trepidation in his hand, suddenly rushed to tackle him, prying the Vogul away from Clover.Dum!There was a dull sound of collision as Ktulu pushed the Vogul away from Clover, causing the two of them to crash and tumble to the ground.This sudden turn of events caught everybody by surprise. Especially the Vogul, who felt like the wind had been knocked out of his lungs, leaving him wheezing and gasping for breath.Ktulu was not in a better state than him. In his hurry to stop the Vogul, Ktulu had not held back at all to reach him in time. Because of that, he had misjudged the amount of strength in his charge. When Ktulu knocked into the other Vogul, he ended up hurting his arm against the solid chest of his opponent, leaving him in pain and with his shoulder dislocated.This couldn't be helped at all. Although the othe
Self Directed Performance
The confrontation between Clover and the Vogul drew a lot of attention, causing a crowd to form around them. The loud clamor of noise then proceeded to draw even more attention and people to them.Ktulu, who was leading the way for Clover, noticed the commotion that was going on at the entrance and his gaze was attractive over there.Ktulu had already gone a bit further away from the entrance, so from his side, he could not see what was going on clearly. But Ktulu did not appear surprised. As he looked at the crowd that was gradually forming, Ktulu also commented."Do you see this, my lord? Things like this are a common occurrence in this space station. The inhabitants here are a rowdy bunch and they like to cause trouble.""Most likely, it is some ignorant newcomer who doesn't understand the ways of the station that is being harassed right now. Serves him right!""You don't have to be surprised, my lord. Probably you will stumble across two or three such scenes like this. It might se
Conflict In The Space Station
Past the docking bay, there was a common area. After going through a few corridors and taking a lift to the upper level of the station, one would arrive at the common area. Here, this was where most of the residents of the space station conducted most of their activities.The Houndclaw space station, as dilapidated as it looked, was still a proper space station. The size of the space station was about the same as Earth's moon. The overall structure of the space station was in the form of a rhombus-shaped brick.There were four places from which one can enter the station depending on the direction one came from. Each of these docking areas had access to an identical common area and from there, one could explore the space station. There were multiple facilities that catered to different needs in the station and, depending on what they were in need of, it was possible to get it.Following Ktulu as he led the way, Clover observed his surroundings. There was nothing much to say about it. T
Arriving At The Houndclaw Space Station 2
There was a line outside the Houndclaw space station, where a simple check was being conducted. Every ship that wanted to enter the station would have to go through the check before being permitted to do so.But like was said, the check was simple, and it was mainly to register the ships that were docking in the station.Unlike other space stations that were very strict, the Houndclaw space station was quite lax in its management. This was because the main population of those that resided in the station was made up of outlaws, pirates, and fugitives of the law.The good thing about this is that there was a minimum guarantee of secrecy when business was being conducted at the station. But as a consequence, the security in the station was terrible.Clover was not concerned with all these factors. He was rather satisfied with the place. Due to how lax the security was in this place, it made it easy for Clover to avoid his pursuers and lie low while attempting to fix his ship. With this s
Arriving At The Houndclaw Space Station
The process of absorbing the life force from the obelisk was very fast. Over time, the feeling of his life order increasing that brought so much pleasure to Clover gradually faded, and the look of pleasure on Clover's face eventually eased. Very soon, Clover let out a breath as everything ended and he quickly composed himself once more. As Clover opened his eyes, there was a dazed look on his face as he recalled the feeling he had just experienced. It wasn't the first time Clover was absorbing life force, but every time he did it; it was still as intense as ever. Clover thought by now he would already be used to it, but that wasn't the case. Every experience was more intoxicating than the last, and the feelings that came with the process sought to overwhelm Clover's will. This feeling was very addicting. Some times, Clover felt like every time he absorbed a bit of life force from the obelisk, a part of him felt lost like something was missing. This feeling came from Clover's body an
Absorbing Lifeforce
Clover looked inside him at the obelisk fragment in the white space. The fragment of the obelisk was irregularity shaped without any well-defined dimensions. It was like a block of twisted metal and it could not look any more ugly. Anybody that saw this object would never have thought that it was a fragment of the legendary artifact, the obelisk.Right now, the fragment revolved on its own axis while giving off a dull resplendent glow as it floated while suspended in the air. Looking at it, the fragment could not look any less remarkable. The only thing that stood out about the fragment was the faint mysterious air that surrounded it.After looking at the fragment for a moment, Clover quickly turned his gaze away. This was not the first time Clover was seeing the obelisk fragment, as it had been with him for more than a hundred years. In all this time, the fragment had not changed, and it remained exactly the same unless for a few rare occasions.This time, what clover was interested
Good News 2
Due to the importance of the obelisk, it was kept closely guarded by the universe's immortal clan. But despite its abilities, the clan never used it. The reason was that using the ability of the obelisk to absorb the life force of other living beings to refine it was the same as killing them. This means if the universe immortal clan wanted to use the obelisk to grow stronger, they would have to constantly kill living beings in the universe to absorb their life force.For a clan that advocated balance in the universe and considered themselves the protectors of life in the universe, this was something that went against their bottom line. They would never consider turning against every living being in the universe just to increase their strength.Even if they wanted to do that, it was certain that other races in the universe would not allow them and they would fight back to destroy this clan of immortals that saw them as prey. This is why the obelisk was also a taboo artifact that was fo
Good News
For the past 3hrs, while he was meditating, Clover had been waiting for this piece of news and now it was finally here. Not wasting any time, Clover no longer paid attention to his still world for the time being. Instead, he looked deeper within himself.Soon, Clover's vision shifted and the scene of his still world changed and was replaced by a completely white space located somewhere inside his body. Clover didn't know where this space was in his body. He only knew that it existed and that inside it, his most important treasure and asset rested.The space was not large, about one cubic meter, and inside it, the fragment of the obelisk that was broken from the main body and fused with Clover floated.The obelisk was the most important artifact of the universe immortals. because of an accident involving Clover and his parents, it was broken and scattered all over the universe with a fragment of it fused with clover and becoming a part of him. The abilities of this artifact were heaven
Mind/Form Singularity
The journey to the Houndclaw space station was uneventful. After settling Ktulu down somewhere on the ship, Clover went back to his cabin to rest and meditate.Having set the coordinates of the space station in the ship's navigation system, Clover didn't have to worry about anything and he could leave the ship to Trudy to watch after. If anything happened during their journey that Trudy couldn't handle on her own, she would inform Clover. Only then would Clover have to come out to deal with it.With everything set, Clover went into his room and started meditating immediately. He was still exploring the changes that had happened in his still world. During the process, Clover found out that the efficiency at which he visualized the vitality of the universe had increased greatly. This made Clover's connection to the universe even closer, and he was able to reap multiple times the harvest during his meditations compared to before.This sudden boon excited Clover, as it meant his strength
