Chapter 1168: Chapter 547 Marriage_2

He turned the Gourd Vine Immortal Rope back into a golden thread and tightly bound Berry. Then, he urged the Skin Shedding Artifact to exert its absorption power. This absorption power was terrifying, and even Ghostly Ted and Predecessor Santa couldn’t resist it.

Under such a "pull", little by little, the Divine Rhyme in the Cobra was being drained away. After spending four hours straight, the Cobra finally shattered, and Berry fell out with a yell, almost getting sucked into the Skin Shedding Artifact.

He rolled on the ground, got up on his own, bowed his head, and thanked Owen Bertram with a clenched fist. He was still too embarrassed to raise his head. Owen patted him with a slap: "Alright, don’t be so embarrassed. Besides Tabitha, there are only a few of you, my close ones in this world."

A warmth filled Berry’s heart, and he said with a whimper, "I didn’t mean to avoid you, but I thought if I couldn’t get rid of the Evil Poison inside me, I’d be better off dying silently outside rather than making you and Tabitha sad."

"I understand what you mean, but it looks like the poison hasn’t been removed yet?"

"It has weakened a lot since it came out, so it seems that increasing my cultivation is the right path."

Owen nodded and asked, "Is the constraint of the Da Luo World Gate still in place?"

"It’s still there. And yesterday, the reward settlement for this adventure was completed, and the Da Luo World Gate has fully repaired itself."

Since only the basic completion rate was achieved, even though Berry had a near-death experience in this adventure, the rewards were meager. It was just a single "Divine Skill Baptism" that helped him improve by a small level. No rare items were granted, and Berry felt that this adventure was a losing proposition.

He speculated that the Da Luo World Gate had incurred massive losses in its repairs, which was why it had become impoverished, and naturally reduced the rewards for the Calamity Experiencers.

But Berry had another concern he didn’t tell Robert: when the Da Luo World Gate issued this adventure, it generously promised various precious rewards for the complete completion rate, to encourage all Calamity Experiencers to strive for perfection. However, he did not meet the demands of the Da Luo World Gate this time and feared that he would be retaliated against in the upcoming adventures!

He didn’t tell Robert because there was nothing he could do about it, so why make him worry unnecessarily for his sake?

Owen looked at him and asked, "Are you going to leave again?"

Berry was silent for a moment before finally nodding. Owen tried to persuade him: "I need help right now. You’re already at the Fifth Great Realm, stay and help me. Our own people can work together and take care of each other. Isn’t that better?"

Berry was silent for a long time before slowly saying, "I still have the same idea. If I can’t get rid of the poison, let me die quietly outside.

Cultivation is not a guarantee that I’ll be able to break through just because you’ve provided me the resources. And the Precepts of the Da Luo World Gate are still in place. If I stay by your side, I’m afraid you’ll want to take care of me every time and arrange everything... I owe you too much already, I don’t want to keep being a burden to you."

"Alright..." Owen sighed, took out a pile of treasures from his Storage Brocade Pouch: more than a dozen High-Level Spirit Pills, and seven or eight Tire-5 and Tier-6 Magical Instruments, then pushed them all in front of Berry. Berry was about to refuse, but Owen glared at him: "Take them! If you don’t, I’ll take you back to the village right now. And do you think Master Basil won’t use his crutch to spank your butt?"

"You may be older than me, and I can’t control you, but there are still Uncle and Master Basil in the village, can’t they?"

Berry obediently took these treasures. He secretly glanced at them, his heart moved even more. Robert had prepared these with great care. These Spirit Pills were for detoxification, healing, and replenishing; the Magical Instruments focused on defense and self-preservation, all very suitable for his adventures in the Da Luo World Gate.

Berry was also quite ambitious now, and he laughed, "As soon as I get rid of the Evil Poison, I’ll find a way, just like Ghostly Ted, to seize the Precepts of the Da Luo World Gate! Then I’ll come and help you, and together we, as brothers, will dominate the Eight Desolates! Hahaha!"

Owen also laughed: "Good, I’ll be waiting for you. Keep your word, or even if I can forgive you, Uncle and Master Basil will not let you off easy!"

Berry quietly left the next day before dawn. Owen felt it when he left, but he didn’t come out to say goodbye, because if he did... it might be a forever goodbye.

Predecessor Santa had been "recovering from his injuries" during that time. There weren’t any real injuries, but after losing both the Fire Staff and the Fire Whiskers, he had also lost the powerful Spirit Fire in this avatar.

It wasn’t that Owen was unwilling to return it to him, but that the Spirit Fire and the half-part of Ghostly Ted were entangled and still inside the Skin Shedding Artifact.

And this Skin Shedding Artifact was also quite peculiar. It seemed to be constantly refining—but at a slow pace. Owen didn’t even know what it would ultimately refine into. And it was refining both the half-part of Ghostly Ted and the Spirit Fire together!

Predecessor Santa had been stabilizing himself these few days. He had fallen to an ordinary Seventh Level, but his actual strength was still slipping. After Berry left, Santa realized that Owen had taken care of various matters at hand and finally let go of his predecessor’s dignity, coming personally to find Owen.

"Ahem, Old Husband is ready to return to the Clan Leader’s Great Tomb."
