Chapter 1037: Chapter 509: Tomb of the True Fire Illusion God_1

Owen Bertram collected the body of the Tier-7 Demon Beast, revealing a small entrance amidst the broken hill below. Mr. Bertram lifted his hand, and the debris, broken stones, glass, mud, and so forth, regardless of size, automatically rose up, revealing that the small entrance was actually a very spacious and tall tunnel after clearing the debris.

Owen Bertram walked down the passage. Mr. Archibald pulled the Honored Lord, and the two followed: "Your Excellency..." Owen Bertram stopped and turned to look at them, his eyes full of vigilance: "What else is there?"

Unsure how to approach due to the gaze he received, Mr. Archibald bowed with a fist: "We failed to recognize greatness earlier. We even tried to recruit you, and our words may have been disrespectful. Please forgive us!"

The Honored Lord sighed: "After achieving the Sixth Great Realm, I was a little self-righteous, thinking I could stand shoulder to shoulder with heroes of the world and establish a career in the revived world. Today, after witnessing Your Excellency’s skill, I understand the gap between myself and a true Heaven’s Chosen."

Looking back at my past words and deeds... I’m truly ashamed. I hope I didn’t make Your Excellency laugh."

Opportunists who harbor grand ambitions are a dime a dozen in troubled times. The Honored Lord and Mr. Archibald were more fortunate as they quickly realized the gap between them and the true strong, so they could abandon their ambitions and even pledge loyalty to the strong they admire.

Most people, on the other hand, struggled for years, only to find out that Heaven had not arranged it that way and that they were merely stepping stones for the "destined ones."

They met tragic ends, with even their family and descendants being implicated and killed.

Unaware of the thoughts that flashed through the two men’s minds, the Honored Lord spoke incessantly before noticing that Mr. Bertram was just silently watching him. He quickly bowed with a fist and said: "Please protect us, Your Excellency, and help us escape the control of the Mountain God Temple!"

"What’s so difficult about that?" said Mr. Bertram. "Stretch out your hand."

The two stretched out their hands, and the Light Flower Mark on their wrists was clearly visible. Owen Bertram swiped his two fingers across the mark - and it disappeared!

"Ah!" Both men were first surprised, then Mr. Archibald worried: "If we are discovered by the Norton Mountain God, he will surely hunt us down..."

Mr. Bertram was indifferent: "He wouldn’t dare."

Dare not? Mr. Archibald and the Honored Lord were shocked, and their curiosity about the depth of Mr. Bertram grew even more. Mr. Bertram waved his hand: "Alright, your problem has been solved. Without this mark, it cannot threaten you. With your abilities, you can always escape."

"Our fate has run its course. Let’s part ways now." Owen Bertram turned to leave. Soon, he heard footsteps behind him and secretly chuckled.

Mr. Archibald and the Honored Lord caught up: "We would like to follow you, Your Excellency. Please give us a chance."

Mr. Bertram turned back: "Honored Lord..." The latter quickly apologized: "My name is Winston." Mr. Archibald also said: "My student name is Oliver Archibald."

"You two want to follow me, have you considered the dangers that lie ahead? You know nothing about me. What if I have evil intentions and send you to your deaths?"

Winston grinned: "Although I am not clear about my own status, I have never misjudged others. Your Excellency is definitely not a scoundrel."

Oliver Archibald recalled and asked: "Your Excellency came here for another purpose, didn’t you? You have been rejecting us all the time, but suddenly changed your attitude when you overheard me mentioning some ancient place names before you decided to leave."

Owen Bertram did not hide it: "You brought me here as a favor that I owe you." He flipped his palm and revealed a token: "I am the Horizon Bureau’s Owen Bertram!"

"Think about whether you want to follow me."

Both were shocked, and countless thoughts flashed through their minds at that moment. Winston slowly revealed a relieved smile: "If it’s you, my lord, I feel much better, haha."

"Being defeated by Wood Dynasty’s First Heaven’s Chosen of the younger generation is not a regret!"

Oliver Archibald bowed: "Your Excellency is noble. We are willing to follow you to the death."

Owen Bertram laughed: "How am I noble? In the eyes of outsiders, I am the vicious overlord of the Horizon Bureau, a sycophant who serves the Emperor." Oliver Archibald shook his head: "What’s the point of rumors? My student saw people living happily and peacefully under your governance in the Summit Metropolitan Office, the administration was clear, and the seasons were calm."

"Even the East Prison Town Comfort Office and South Prison Town Comfort Office, which you took over not long ago, are showing signs of prosperity."

"Your Excellency and Abner Lane are the backbone of our dynasty."

Mr. Bertram nodded slightly: "In that case, you can follow me." He walked towards the tunnel, with Winston and Oliver Archibald following closely. The deeper they went, the hotter it became, and around them, the stone walls began to display some special murals.

Oliver Archibald couldn’t help but ask: "Sir, what is this place?"

They had just reached the end point of the huge corridor, which revealed a tomb as vast as a small world! The sun, moon and stars circled overhead, surrounded by mountains, rivers and lush forests. Various large and small beasts and birds wandered among them.

However, all of this was formed by the congregation of different Spiritual Flames.
