I can return to the age of mysterious
Chapter 1220 - 1220 The Sixth Retrospection (4000)

Chapter 1220: The Sixth Retrospection (4000) Chapter 1220: The Sixth Retrospection (4000) With the expansion of the Magical Golem Sect and the deepening of its influence, it became even easier for Casio to acquire Obsession Antiques than before. He didn’t need to do anything himself; his vast network of forces acted like thousands of tendrils, automatically handling matters for Casio.

The pile of Obsession Antiques in front of him represented the recent months’ harvest.

On Heart of Lake Island, a gentle breeze caressed, and the green trees swayed.

In front of the mountain of antiques, Casio glanced at the upper right corner of his vision.

“Obsession Energy: 36.1”

It was still the same as after the fifth retrospection, with no increase. All the collected Obsession Antiques had been saved up for absorption today.

His silhouette paused slightly, and without hesitation, he reached out towards the mountain of antiques. Soon, a sinister, chilling sensation gathered like flowing water, converging into a stream and rushing into Casio’s body.

Cold, shadowy, tingling, bitter—all too familiar sensations.

Compared to the previous absorption of Obsession Antiques, the energy from this mountain of antiques was even more ferocious, like a roaring glacier. If it had been Casio from before, he might have felt as though he was dropped into an ice cellar, bone-chillingly cold. But now, he felt nothing at all, just silently absorbing the Obsession Energy.

Minutes later, Casio slowly raised his head.

The large batch of Obsession Antiques had returned to their ordinary appearance.

And all the Obsession Energy had been extracted by the Retrospective Ability.

In the upper right corner of his vision, a number clearly displayed.

“Obsession Energy: 13,227.2”

A full five-digit figure, over ten thousand in Obsession Energy. This was from tens of thousands of Obsession Antiques, which even a behemoth like the Magical Golem Sect would need quite some time to deliberately collect. Now, Casio had absorbed them in an instant, transforming them into the activation energy for the Retrospective Ability.

Withdrawing his gaze, he did not feel much joy.

Because, despite such an immense amount of Obsession Energy, Casio was still worried it might not be enough for the sixth retrospection. The Retrospective Ability had changed during the fifth retrospection, allowing him to bring the aura of top fighters into the Era of Retrospection. For this, Casio had expended 13.5 Obsession Energy. Although the consumption increased, the convenience it brought was absolutely worth it.

After the fifth retrospection, he wondered if, with enough Obsession Energy, he could fully bring his own strength into the Era of Retrospection, not just the Holy Fist Aura but also a physique of the Dark Ultimate Level. With this, the moment Casio entered the Era of Retrospection, he could do what he wanted to do and resolve the host’s Obsession with a wave of his hand.

All things considered, it was worth it.

However, with his current realm and strength, fully bringing his power into the Era of Retrospection would likely require a terrifying amount of Obsession Energy.

After all, the Holy Fist Realm’s aura grows endlessly, deep as an abyss. Casio had now taken nearly half the steps toward the ultimate realm, equivalent to accumulating thousands of years of the Holy Fist through normal cultivation, plus the body of the demon idol…

About thirteen thousand in terms of Obsession Energy, it’s hard to say whether that’s enough.

Fortunately, many of the Obsession Antiques are not one-time only, but release Obsession Energy multiple times. Additionally, there’s a batch of Obsession Antiques collected from abroad that hasn’t arrived yet; maybe that will be enough?

After some contemplation, Casio took out a Legendary Antique.

It was a silver handgun, standard issue for soldiers of the Hong Li Federation. The handgun had not been thoroughly cleaned and still bore the marks of significant corrosion. The springs and mechanisms within were no longer functional.

He had sent someone to investigate the origins of this gun thoroughly. About forty-five years ago, around the year 111 of the Hong Li Federation Calendar, the Federation, one of the world’s three major powers, declared war over interests with three countries in the western part of the North Reef Continent. Shadows of the Yana United States lurked behind this war, possibly supporting those three countries.

Furthermore, aside from humans, when the Magical Golem Sect traced the historical cliques, they unexpectedly found traces of the Door Organization and Dark creatures.

This so-called national war was not simple.

On the surface, it was a territorial dispute that sparked the conflict.

But in reality, there were other secrets hidden.

A relentless pursuit by the Magical Golem Sect revealed that what the three western countries and the Hong Li Federation truly cared about was a specific area within this disputed territory. This area contained rich metal veins, including silver and gold mines. Apparently, this was the real cause. However, when the Magical Golem Sect approached the Black Mechanism for answers due to the traces of the Door Organization and Dark creatures found in that war, they received an unexpected piece of news.

The vast metal veins were only one of the secondary reasons.

The real reason was that in this mining area, the Hong Li Empire had discovered the legendary Miracle Garden. This was an ancient story widely circulated around the world, claiming there was a moveable Miracle Garden beneath the earth of the North Reef Continent. On this land of the Hong Li Federation, every dynasty had such rumors and various magical stories.

Someone in the southern part of the Hong Li Federation’s Hundred Thousand Great Mountains stumbled into the Miracle Garden by accident. When they came out the next night, they appeared near a small, extremely cold hollow at the very northern end of the North Reef Continent.

Some entered the Miracle Garden and came out bewildered. To their amazement, they found themselves rejuvenated, maintaining their youthful appearance until death.

In any case, the appearance of the Miracle Garden in reality brought a tremendous shock to the Hong Li Federation. Because this ancient ruin could indeed move quickly. Sometimes it appeared on the left side, sometimes on the right, but generally, it was located within this mining region. It seemed to wander into a gap, briefly trapped by the surrounding thick metal layers.
