Chapter 1825: Chapter 663: Puzzle and Confusion_2
The young Owen Bertram replied coldly: "Between us, we are already bound by the cause and effect precepts. If you break the agreement, your fate would definitely be more miserable than the complete extinction of body and spirit!"
Master Sun asked cunningly, "What exactly constitutes a breach of our agreement?"
The young Owen Bertram smirked mysteriously. Afterwards, the water mirror shattered.
...
Master Sun’s departure was smooth. This might be because of the control of the water mirror, or possibly due to the deterrence of the Sun kids and those black clouds dared not approach.
Over the years, many cultivators and immortals have entered the Demon Cloud Abyss, including the Great Commander of Master Wolf. Apart from Master Sun, no one else has probably encountered the water mirror.
The Demon Cloud Abyss is reputed as"no one returns alive", and it is not an exaggeration. Those like the Great Commander, who managed to escape, chose not to publicize it due to their own reasons.
After leaving the Demon Cloud Abyss, Master Sun was puzzled: The Great Commander is also a prodigy, and from his approach of non-servility towards the Immortal Descendant, he seems to also be dismissive of the Heaven Realm. So why did the water mirror choose him instead?
The water mirror appears to "know all things", so why did it need him to reveal the exact time of the Heavenly Track’s repair?
From these subtle details, Master Sun deduced several useful pieces of information: The water mirror chose him instead of the Great Commander because it must be aware of his real origins, which are more helpful to it. This involves his secret background.
What’s more disadvantageous is that the water mirror already knows of his brother’s existence.
But without a doubt, the water mirror knows nothing about Alexia. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been misled by him, rushing to control Verna in the Netherworld, only to get backlashed.
Was the water mirror lying when it indicated that it was aware of their true origins? Did it really not know about their secrets, or did it only know about him and not Verna’s part?
It required him to inform it about the exact time of the Heavenly Track’s repair, suggesting that it could understand all "the past", but could not foresee the future!
He asked it for the precise location of Master Amos in the Dao Ding Immortal Domain, and it thought about it for quite a long time. Hence, these "pasts" were not stored in its memory, but seemed to be retrieved from a massive database.
It needed him to inform it about the precise time of the Heavenly Track’s repair - actually, as long as it diligently searched at a high frequency, it could find out the result a short time after the repair of the Heavenly Track.
This shows that such a search by the water mirror has certain limitations, or it consumes too much and can’t be used frequently.
However, Master Sun wasn’t entirely confident about these assumptions. It’s also possible that the water mirror deliberately behaves this way to mislead him. He felt that this fellow might just be a sly fox who has lived for hundreds of thousands of years. Better to overcomplicate things than to oversimplify them.
However, their first task now was to locate the Splendid Immortal Domain!
When the water mirror offered "inside" information of the Splendid Immortal Domain to him and he didn’t take it, Master Sun suspected that the so-called "Peace Tower" definitely had a problem. Also, he wanted to see if his "treasure boy" could surprise him again.
When the God of Construction was summoned thrice by the Divine Lord in a short time... In the Heavenly Palace, the other gods, who had thought that the Divine Lord’s selection of the God of Construction was a fool’s errand, were clearly raging with envy.
As it turned out, reliability was the most important thing to the Divine Lord. The God of Construction chose to follow the Lord of Divine Water early on, and even though it had no particular abilities, the Divine Lord esteemed him highly.
For tens of thousands of years, they had seen the God of Construction as a good-for-nothing.
When the God of Construction learned the name "Splendid Immortal Domain" and its specific location back then, and searched for it on the star maps he had analyzed, he quickly made a discovery and exclaimed, "So, it’s here..."The Lord of Divine Water spoke, his voice filled with the majesty of a supreme god, a stark contrast to the Lord’s eccentric nature, "What’s so extraordinary about this Immortal Domain?"
The God of Construction honestly reported, "Years ago, when I calculated this section of the starry sky, I felt something was off. At that time... ah, tens of thousands of years ago, my abilities were somewhat insufficient, so I actually overlooked this area.
Looking back now, at that time, the secrets had already been concealed by Master Amos, no wonder my calculations kept yielding clearly erroneous results."
The Lord of Divine Water asked, "Can you find it now?"
The God of Construction replied, "I am willing to try." The Lord of Divine Water lifted his hand, and a silver mist enveloped the God of Construction. Suddenly, space shifted, stars spun and he appeared in the starry sky.
The silver mist held powerful divine powers; without this protection, if the God of Construction were to leave the Heavenly Palace of All Gods now, he would undoubtedly fall into the ambush of the Immortal Race and perish a second time!
Moreover, upon arriving in this starry sky, Master Amos would immediately notice.
After seven days of calculations, the God of Construction revealed a satisfied smile, "So... that’s where I went wrong all those years ago. The Immortal Race is indeed capable. The way they concealed the secrets was able to interfere with my pure numerical calculations. Impressive!"
"You found it?" The voice of the Lord of Divine Water echoed in the silver mist. The God of Construction hastily replied, "Yes, I have. But according to my calculations, this Immortal Domain has been thoroughly refined by that Immortal Venerable, and a stronger power has emerged within, merging with the source of the domain’s world. Based on the habits of the Immortal Race, it should be an Immortal Venerable’s divine sense."
Owen Bertram secretly furrowed his brows, "Does this mean that any outsider who invades will not escape the notice of Master Amos?"
"Yes," the God of Construction was very certain of this, "There’s no chance at all."
A thought crossed Owen Bertram’s mind, and the God of Construction was instantly sent back, landing in his own Divine Temple. The silver mist dispersed and the Lord of Divine Water’s divine sense returned. But the God of Construction suddenly had an inspiration, "Hmm? Let me calculate again...."
Owen Bertram almost instantly came up with a viable solution: his grandchildren.
These little creatures had newly acquired a paralyzing divine power. Once applied, the victim would not even realize they were being consumed. But they were not yet "mature", their divine powers hadn’t fully developed and they most likely wouldn’t be able to elude Master Amos.
"To succeed, we need to intensify feeding so they grow up quickly," Owen Bertram frowned again secretly, "But... it’s too much of a coincidence."
"Is there a powerful being that, from the moment the Soul-Devouring Hookworms were granted, has actually been planning for this moment, using me as a tool to destroy Master Amos’s Nine-Layered Daoist Hall?"
It sounded preposterous, but Owen Bertram did not doubt that the Emperor Venerables possessed such strategic foresight!
Owen Bertram was very cautious during these deliberations, using the body of the Lord—The Lord of Divine Water who held a position parallel to the Emperor Venerables. This ensured that the Emperor Venerables wouldn’t notice.
Furthermore, all these thoughts and conclusions were kept within the Lord of Divine Water’s divine sense and were not shared with his main body for the time being.
Meanwhile, Owen Bertram was single-mindedly searching for precious natural resources to quickly raise his grandchildren. The care and attentiveness required reminded him of his raising of Little Grape, who he’d cared for mostly to handle his mother, giving resources when he remembered and not worrying when he didn’t. Now, as a grandfather, he was far more diligent.
But after communicating with his grandchildren, he felt like he’d shot himself in the foot: after taking them through the Demon Cloud Abyss, they consumed the dark clouds and became pickier eaters. All the treasures of the Lower Realm were now of no help; they wanted to eat the delicacies of the Heaven Realm!
Owen Bertram had no choice but to contact General Saxon again. The first thing General Saxon said when he secretly communicated with the Lord of Divine Water was filled with emotion, "Where did you find this Smith Thomas? It’s really..." General Saxon seemed uncertain of how to accurately describe Thomas and after much deliberation, he finally said "It’s a shame that he ended up as a spy instead of being a normal part of the Heaven Realm. Given a few tens of thousands of years, even without accumulating Dao Fruit, he could have held power on par with the Emperor Venerables!"
General Saxon sighed and said, "Your Majesty, I bet you never imagined that in just a few months of him being in the Heaven Realm, he’s already climbed up to the third level amongst the imperial guards and is now my immediate superior!"
