Almost immediately after, all the blood began glowing in a golden light as they seeped down the cracks!Though pretty much everyone was surprised by the earthquake, Sanchez quickly snapped out of it before laughing hideously as he yelled, “I… I’ve succeeded, haven’t I?! As I predicted, the fresh blood of those cultivators was the key all along…!”“Eldest Brother, look! No wonder nobody’s been able to solve the tomb’s secrets! There’s a space beneath the main chamber!”“How horrifying… If this level’s headless general has already entered the Domiensch Realm, how powerful would the true owner of the tomb be…?” muttered the white-robed man as he placed his hands against his back while looking down at the massive hole that had just formed on the ground… Meanwhile, Gerald could feel his body slowly sinking, almost as though something from the hole was drawing him in… and it was at that moment when he got an idea. Murmuring a spell, Gerald quickly released the Heavenly Guard Order… an
Even after he got out of the water, however, Gerald wasn’t able to gauge how deep underground he now was. That aside, the ocean he had fallen into almost seemed boundless! From a rough estimate, he’d say that the body of water covered at least half of the northwest area… “How strange for this underground ocean to even exist!” muttered Gerald to himself before starting to fly around to see if there were any clues lying around… It wasn’t all that long before Gerald heard something rushing past him beneath the waves! Since Gerald could see perfectly well even in the dark, he was able to catch a glimpse of a massive shadow bolting off underwater!Once it was out of sight, Gerald was prompted to mutter, “...Could secrets lie at the bottom of the ocean…?”After surveying his surroundings once more—and confirming that there was nothing unusual around him—, Gerald eventually added, “...Well, I guess searching the bottom of the ocean is better than flying aimlessly up here!”Since there
After initiating his transformation technique, Gerald then turned himself into a faint beam of light that dove deep into the borderless ocean! When he finally spread out his divine sense again, Gerald realized that he had managed to break free from the illusion! Currently, he found himself in what appeared to be a mansion’s storage space. As for how he made that guess, it was because there were several boxes of varying sizes lying all around him. Though Gerald was left slightly confused, he was more relieved than anything as he thought, ‘Thank god I knew how to transform… Otherwise, I would’ve been trapped in there forever!’ Shivering slightly to the thought of that outcome, Gerald quickly shook his head before starting to look around… Apart from the boxes, the only other thing within the room was a landscape painting scroll hanging on the wall. The painting portrayed a huge, open space within a peach forest that was surrounded by high mountains and waterfalls… There was even a p
This wasn’t the time to be hesitating…! Watching as the golden-clad warrior slashed his blade at him, Gerald dodged with all his might… and was only able to avoid the attack by a hair’s breadth…! That was naturally not the end of things, and Gerald soon found himself bolting about as he avoided the onslaught of slashes from the other golden-clad warriors…! He really was no match for this group of warriors at all…! As he continued dodging the attacks, one of the warriors’ blades of light collided against a scroll painting behind Gerald… and to the boy’s amazement, the blade’s energy was completely absorbed by it! “W-what on earth…?!” muttered the stunned Gerald as he turned to give the painting a good look… only to end up feeling chills run down his spine…! While he was sure that there had only been a single person within the scroll’s pavilion before this… there were now two! In fact, they seemed to be enjoying some tea together…! To make matters even more shocking, Gerald sud
Regardless, as Gerald remained shocked on the spot, Finnley cheerfully added, “Well, Zearl? Think my disciple can pass your test?” Upon hearing that, the Zearl nodded with a bitter laugh as he replied, “Even if I didn’t think so, I’d still allow him to take it. After all, I owe you a favor. Had you not helped me back then, I would’ve surely been doomed to become a devil! I’m much more relaxed and comfortable in my current state, and though I can’t cultivate anymore, I can now nurture my heart!” “Regardless, about the test… I’ve placed the Dragonprime and my angelic inheritance in two locations, and if Gerald is able to find them, not only will he be able to take out the great demon, but he’ll also be able to deal with the Soluna Deus Sect!” concluded the old man. “…That… Are you saying you’re willing to pass on the angelic inheritance to me?” replied Gerald who was clearly surprised to hear that. As it turned out, Finnley had already paved the road ahead for him… “Indeed, but i
As the Zearl continued pointing toward Gerald’s forehead, the boy soon realized that he now knew two new magical chants…! Just as the Zearl had promised, Gerald could now use the godly powers of the Realm in the Sleeve and the Beadation Warrior…! “After obtaining my inheritance, be sure to thoroughly cultivate your newfound godly powers, as well as your existing transformation technique. Do that for long enough and you’ll surely be able to face any number of enemies, as well as any heavenly tribulations! Speaking of cultivating, your current body is only meant for normal cultivation. In other words, until you enter the Deitus Realm, you won’t be able to properly cultivate your godly powers.” “Since I’m now your master and I’ve already given you so much help anyway, allow me to hand you a magic artifact to ensure your survival before you locate the Dragonprime and my inheritance!” concluded the Zearl as he made a gesture… before pointing at Gerald’s hands. Following a brief flash,
Since Sanchez had assumed that Gerald had died, he was understandably shaken to hear the boy’s voice! “Of course, I am, and you’d best be grateful about it. Otherwise, you’d be trapped in this place till the day you died!” scoffed Gerald. While it was true that Gerald still wasn’t powerful enough to deal with Sanchez yet, they were still in the Realm of the Sleeve, and Gerald was way more familiar with how this place worked now compared to that old man. In other words, Gerald knew that Sanchez wouldn’t be able to harm him here. Either way, Sanchez couldn’t help but ask, “…What is this place anyway? And isn’t your cultivation level lower than mine? How can you remain this casual in this situation?” “Whatever the case is, it seems that you know how to get out of this place, boy. With that in mind, you’d best get us out of here if you don’t wish for us to tear you to shreds!” scoffed the Blancetnoir Double Lords, both with raised brows. “Oh? You two aren’t the buffest men I’ve c
“Oh? Are you saying that you’ll repay my kindness with murder?” said Gerald in a playful tone. Laughing in response, Sanchez then retorted, “Killing you would be letting you off easy! I want you to suffer! To think that a brat like you would even dare to make me submit to you…! I’ll show you my true power today if it’s the last thing I do!” Following that, Sanchez took a deep breath… and shortly after, his palm was enveloped in black light! Sensing how powerful the light was becoming, the anxious Yusra—who had been watching from the side—couldn’t help but exclaim, “Stop Sanchez immediately, Blancetnoir Double Lords…!” To her dismay, the duo didn’t seem keen on moving an inch. In fact, they almost seemed eager to see Gerald suffer! While it was true that Gerald had saved them, the boy had also threatened them back then. Hell, he had almost gotten them to kill each other…! It was a dark moment for them, which was why they felt no remorse for not helping the boy now! Aside fro
