“Her? She’s here too?” muttered Darkwind with a frown. “It looks like they really did invite half of the cultivation realm over… Regardless, who exactly is that eldest young mistress, Darkwind? Also, Dark Moon Biological Group? That doesn’t sound like a cultivation organization at all. In fact, it sounds like the organization has only recently been established… With that in mind, what’s up with that?” asked Gerald—who felt like his horizons had been broadened—as he stared at the brightly lit Ventiluna Manor… “Well, as you suspected, the young mistress is from the Zachau family and they’re not exactly a cultivation organization. Instead, they’re a biotech company that emerged some thirty years ago. Regardless, while it’s fair to also assume that they’re just regular businessmen, I’m afraid that biotech company isn’t that simple. After all, among their many subordinates, three of them are experts in the Domiensch Realm! Those three have willingly worked their hardest for the company

Though Finnley was tempted to smack the back of Gerald’s head, he paused at the very last second before muttering, “…Bah, forget it. It’d be disgraceful to hit you like this now that you’ve entered the Dominesch Realm.” “Putting that aside, where have you been all these years, Finnley? Why did you just leave like that? Lots of things happened during your absence, you know?” Clearing his throat, Finnley quickly replied, “Let’s save that for a bit. I’m afraid that our fight has drawn the attention of quite a few people… Follow me. Now that I’ve tested your martial arts, I’d like to test your lightness skill next!” Following that, Finnley waved his hand… and just like that, he had bolted off in a beam of light! Seeing this, Gerald couldn’t help but smile as he activated his Golden Blaze Somersault to begin chasing the old man… Speaking of Finnley, it wasn’t long before he finally touched down on a mountain peak in Green City, northwest of Peaceton. After waiting around for a few m

“A hundred percent sure. Your investigation was spot on. Regardless, from the moment I found out that she had an angelic root, I knew it was only a matter of time before she was kidnapped. With that in mind, I had to focus on both of you. Speaking of which, I had also hidden on their ship the night she left for Northbay from Hong Kong!” replied Finnley, prompting Gerald’s eyes to widen as Finnley continued telling him the rest of what happened. Essentially, Finnley had disguised himself as a canteen worker that night to monitor Mila and the other girls on the ship. When he sensed the immense power of an angelic artifact early the next morning, Finnley knew that the day had arrived. Since the ship immediately began shaking due to the fierce waves, several of the girls on board were terrified. Though Mila herself remained calm—and had done her best to keep everything under control—, in the end, she was just a commoner. It was way beyond her power to resist the power of the super an

“I, for one, hadn’t expected it to fall into the hands of a commoner who would then start causing trouble with that devilish technique! Either way, I’m assuming that the forbidden book was guarded by your previous incarnation. If my guess is correct, he learned of the Herculean Primordial Spirit’s secrets while obtaining the book from your previous incarnation. Following that, he eventually managed to track you down.” “If we’re going by this theory, then I can assure you that even though he was the one who raised your father to adulthood and founded the Crawford family, he isn’t your biological grandfather. It’s the only way for all of this to make sense!” explained Finnley. “Sister Indigo and Second Uncle suggested this as well!” replied Gerald with a nod. Chuckling in response, Finnley then said, “Regardless, I bet you must be interested in the Hellish Skynet technique now, right? If you are, don’t worry, many individuals from the Deitus Realm find that devilish technique irres

“Right, you are. In order to successfully get past the first step, we need to look no further than the general’s tomb!” replied Finnley. “There’s an angelic root in there?” asked Gerald. “Negative. Angelic roots can’t exist on their own. They either have to be innate or planted using a special ingredient, and it’s just our luck that such an ingredient exists in the general’s tomb. The ingredient is the dragon spirit pearl, more commonly known as the dragon internal pellet! After consuming it, your body will change, and your Herculean Primordial Spirit will behave like an angelic root has been planted within it. If things go well, you’ll have succeeded in your first step in entering the Deitus Realm!” replied Finnley. “…I wonder if Sanchez and his disciples are trying to obtain the dragon spirit pearl…” muttered Gerald. “They are. After all, the object was formed in the body of a spiritual dragon who cultivated into the Deitus Realm after its death. The spiritual dragon itself i
