Sanctus cursed toward Cloth Alley while Prosper charged at the unseen wall!

Regardless of how hard he tried, Prosper could not take a single step into Cloth Alley.

Meanwhile, Kenji, who was already a familiar under Yondu's control, dashed into the unseen wall.

At the time, dark clouds were churning over Cloth Alley, and the entire area was shrouded in darkness, contrasting sharply with the outside world.

Boom!

Thunder erupted in the sky, and lightning flashed among the dark clouds.

Meran was startled by the thunder and turned back to look before hastening his steps toward Peak Institute.

When Chad helped him to the gate, they discovered that Peak Institute had also been emptied.

Meran looked at the Peak Institute gate and pushed Chad aside, trembling as he walked forward.

Standing in front of the gate, Meran turned to Chad and said, "Seis has put his life on the line. He used the Cloth Way's Heavenly Leak formation! With this formation activated, Seis will not be able to leave

    "I will stay here to keep guard. If you want money, prepare to lose your life!"As Meran spoke, he turned around and opened the coffin's lid before sitting inside the massive red coffin.Given its size, even ten people might not be able to fill the coffin completely.Chad felt a sudden heat between his brows, and everything around him changed.Chad saw a faint, dark red aura surrounding Meran's body, giving the impression that he was hidden in darkness.Chad noticed a golden light that rose into the sky when he looked toward Cloth Alley.Even from a distance, Chad could feel Seis' majestic aura.In comparison, Meran felt as if he could die at any moment!Arist was furious. "Old trickster! You're just trying to trick me with a rotten coffin. I refuse to believe it."Arist walked into Peak Institute's backyard and headed straight for Meran.Meran was inside the large red coffin then, and his deep, murky eyes were fixed on Arist."What a good grandson I have. You came to keep m

    Balaro asked with interest, "Is there anything I can't afford? How much do you want?""I'm not interested in money!" Chad said proudly, pointing at Balaro. "I don't mind renting out the Hall of Herbs, but I want your eyes!"Balaro did not expect Chad to say that. His smile faded as he said, "Mr. Jennings, you sure have a good sense of humor—""I don't joke around. Indeed, I'm not interested in money. The rental will be your eyes. If you can't afford it, whatever!" Chad replied seriously. Then he ignored the rest of them and went to the Hall of Herbs.However, Chad did not feel at ease. Meran and Seis had put their lives on the line to save Peak Institute and Cloth Alley.What about the rest of the places? Arthur's Patriot Hall, in particular, would most likely face challenges similar to those faced by Meran and Seis.Balaro looked at Chad's retreating figure and said to Ayo, "We can forget about Cloth Alley. That place no longer meets my needs!"After that, he looked at Peak Ins

    "So what if they realized it? The government doesn't officially recognize geomancy and has actively suppressed all forms of superstition. Otherwise, we wouldn't have accomplished our objectives so easily in the previous eight cities, right?"Ayo felt embarrassed that Balaro was staring at her like that. Her cheeks reddened, and she lowered her head and said, "Yes, I'll do as you say!"At that point, the car drove past Cloth Alley, and the two of them happened to notice Chad walking in.Cloth Alley's dark clouds had entirely dissipated by that point.Balaro looked at Chad and said, "Mr. Jennings is certainly interesting. I'll handle the Hall of Herbs myself!"Ayo was shocked. She did not understand what made Chad so special that Balaro would pay such close attention to him.Chad entered Cloth Alley and saw that everything around him was empty.Cloth Alley had seven households, all of which were descendants of Seis, and it was always very lively.Chad recalled that Seis' descenda

    When a traitor was mentioned, Chad immediately thought of the womanizer, Yael."The womanizer, Yael?"Seis nodded solemnly, wondering how Chad knew."He is the type of guy who can't live without women. He abandoned us for a Saffronesian girl. He and Bernard Sandler, the Eighth Raider, joined the Zenith Organization. I have no idea what happened after that."After Balaro's identity was exposed, Meran and I were reinstated in our respective factions."While Seis spoke, he poured tea for Chad, who quickly stood up and greeted his master.Seis motioned for Chad to sit. He smiled and said, "Sit down, kid! It's just us here. There's no need for formalities."After Chad sat down, Seis said, "Whatever titles we had, they were just names given to us by some disgruntled individuals. Our respective masters protected each of us pirates. Otherwise, we would've been captured long ago. But we didn't expect the bloodshed that would destroy four of the six major sacred sites."Seis detailed the

    Chad looked toward Peak Institute, where Archibald had already arranged for his men to monitor it.From afar, the sound of demolition could be heard. The demolition of Temple Road had officially begun.Chad felt a chill in his heart as he looked at the quiet Temple Road and the demolition crew that was surrounding it.Indeed, as long as there was enough money, even those in the old residences would run as fast as they could.Only the seven families who had lived on Temple Road a century before remained firm.A century ago, Temple Road was home only to Cloth Alley, Peak Institute, the Hall of Herbs, Treasure Trove, Mystery Tower, the House of Star, and Patriot Hall. The seven families then rebuilt the Channel Temple.Following that, Channel Temple's bright lights made Temple Road one of Bloomington's most popular destinations a century ago.Once the demolition was completed, Temple Road would likely revert to its previous activity level.Chad returned to the Hall of Herbs and he

    "What farewell dinner are you talking about?! Why are we acting as if we're afraid of them?"Doreen stood in the shop and began to curse before gloomily walking into the backyard and sitting at the stone table.Grayson was also enraged, exclaiming angrily, "If this is a farewell dinner, I will not touch a single bite! If you've something to say, just say it!"Fifi and Marilyn entered through the other door and overheard their argument.Chad finished the last dish and brought a food container, which he handed to Marilyn. He said, "This is for Matilda. From now on, you'll be in charge of sending her food. There's enough for two, so keep her company!"Marilyn left after taking the container. Chad said, "This is a farewell dinner for Temple Road. Only seven families remain on Temple Road. This might be the last dinner while this place is still Temple Road. Temple Road may no longer exist in Bloomington. That's why this is a farewell dinner!"Everyone fell silent.In a matter of days

    Chad returned to his room after seeing Marilyn off and took the two diagrams Meran and Seis had given him.He recalled being forced to use his Clairvoyant Eye when he faced Balaro.Chad felt controlled and helpless.He picked up the Golden Crow Diagram and began to meditate and breathe, feeling a burning sensation in his forehead.As Chad entered a state of inner observation, a burning sensation spread throughout his body.Meanwhile, the Dragon Veins of Hacniane diagram emitted a purple light that enveloped Chad's body.The Diagram of the Golden Crow, hanging in front of Chad, emitted a sun-like light that shone directly onto his forehead.Chad's body was enveloped in purple light, which transformed into feathers covering his entire body. He resembled the Magpies from the legends, who were said to wear magpie plumage.The golden crow's shadow and nine golden dragons appeared in the sky above the Hall of Herbs.Meanwhile, Balaro, who was in the Cloud Nine Tower suite, felt a ca

    As Balaro spoke, a large black butterfly appeared in the suite and landed on the back of his hand."You're here!"The black butterfly gently flapped its wings before landing on the painting in Balaro's hand. Bolero smiled as he saw the butterfly, his expression full of joy.Despite the excellent soundproofing in the suite, the people living next door—Ayo, Shuten, and Yondu, who had just awoken—could hear Balaro's laughter.The laughter shocked them, and they went completely silent.Ayo was taken aback and silently reminded herself to be extra respectful the next time she saw Matilda.The night passed without incident, and morning arrived.Chad awoke from his meditation and exhaled deeply.Feeling refreshed, he glanced at the Diagram of the Golden Crow in front of him. At that moment, he felt like he had been enlightened.The so-called Clairvoyant Eye enabled individuals to see things that ordinary people could not.In the Clairvoyant Eye's world, everything emitted different

    As Chad sat in meditation on Decaying Peaks, a faint, glowing white immortal crown slowly appeared behind his head. When that immortal crown manifested, a quake occurred everywhere outside Mount Causabour. The frequency of those tremors was extremely high, and everyone could clearly feel them. The vast area they covered included the entire Hacniane. It was as if some ancient seal in the vast sky had been triggered.Chad opened his eyes in shock amid his breakthrough, realizing that the impending heavenly punishment seemed to be directed at him and the millions of mystical beings beneath Mount Causabour.Suddenly, a thunderous voice erupted in the sky, as loud as a bolt of lightning:"Cut off the road to the heavens, seal the underworld; a red banner halts a million immortals, and a red star exterminates ghosts and demons!"Sever Yggdrasil, raise the grand array; a handful of Evergrow blocks the celestial river, and the vast multiverse bows to humanity!"By decree, this is a real

    Sir Holt anxiously looked up at the sky as the tribulation clouds suddenly began to churn violently.Crack! Crack! Crack!At that moment, the first bolt of heavenly punishment finally struck.However, that bolt of divine lightning fell upon the mirage of the Mystic Archive, where it disappeared without a trace. The entire Mount Causabour shook a few times, and everyone could feel a soothing sensation within the mountain.Anyone who felt this would experience a surge of confidence deep within, and any discomfort they felt in their bodies seemed to improve significantly.On Decaying Peaks, that sensation was even more pronounced, and more and more people began to manifest the immortal crown behind their heads. In just a few minutes, nearly everyone on Decaying Peaks, hundreds of people in total, had an immortal crown appear behind them.That included Flynn and Harvey, who were sitting on the outskirts of Decaying Peaks. They, too, had immortal crowns appear behind their heads.How

    Sir Holt and Zayan looked up at the sky with expressionless faces, though their hearts were in turmoil. Within the rolling clouds, faint traces of multicolored light shimmered.As time passed, the colorful lights appeared more frequently, as if gradually consuming the clouds."Such intense ascension light—there must be tens of thousands ascending!""There are probably more. The latest statistics show that 264,777 people have entered Mount Causabour!""Over 260,000? How did so many people get here?"Zayan looked at Sir Holt in shock, and Sir Holt turned his gaze toward the winding mountain road leading into the area."There are still many more people outside trying to get in, but the place is already so crowded that they can't fit."Zayan looked with concern toward the entrance to the mountain. "Won't those stuck on the road cause a disturbance?""They won't!" Sir Holt said with certainty. "Unless they're fools, they've probably already started meditating where they are. Even if

    Among the 250,000 people, quite a few were not actually autistic patients. After sleeping for two full days, Chad woke up and realized that possibility. He carefully considered the potential issues that might arise during the process and decided to issue an announcement."The treatment will begin shortly. Non-autistic patients are advised to leave the Mount Causabour area to avoid unnecessary complications."That announcement was broadcast three times through loudspeakers positioned throughout Mount Causabour. Finally, the loudspeaker voice declared, "The treatment will officially begin in one hour!"At the same time, Chad made his way to the Decaying Peaks, the summit of Mount Causabour, where an over-century-old pavilion stood.Entering the pavilion, Chad sat down in a meditative position. Soon, he noticed a dense crowd gathering around the pavilion, all sitting in meditation poses around him.As Chad glanced over those people, he recognized several familiar faces. The people ar

    Mount Causabour Medical Center, built halfway up Mount Causabour, was a sizable palace-style complex with three courtyards. The center was constructed along the mountain's slope, extending all the way to the base of the Decaying Peaks. Flynn and Harvey were placed in the innermost courtyard, suggesting that their grandfather, Fenton Cooper, likely knew some inside information but had not shared it with his grandsons.On that day, the Hacniane Cabinet issued several announcements. First, they created separate legislation for ability users and cultivators to regulate their powers. Second, they planned to designate special zones in each city for ability users and Mystics, separating them from ordinary people. Lastly, they urgently introduced the Sixteen Temporary Rules for Ability Users and Mystic Practitioners to regulate their behavior.Those announcements seemed like they were aimed at restricting ability users, but in reality, they were meant to reassure ordinary people, ensurin

    A massive leap in the realm could bring unimaginable fortune to the dragon vein, potentially altering Hacniane's fate.That was also Chad's grand gift to the two elders, using the sudden surge in the dragon vein's power to help Hacniane avoid the impending catastrophe triggered by the nuclear explosion of the firmament.Earlier that day, through Chad's Clairvoyant Eye, he saw Kennington shrouded in a faint gray-black mist. Chad did not know what it was but felt it resembled Evergrow, yet not quite the same.However, Chad was certain that accidents would surely happen if ordinary people were exposed to it in large quantities. As a Mystic, he could already feel its effects on his body.At that moment, Sir Holt got into the car, looking at Chad with a solemn expression. "Kid, give me the bottom line!"After careful consideration, Chad laid out his thoughts. Upon hearing them, Sir Holt began to tremble. According to Chad, he would need to mobilize at least 100,000 troops to ensure the

    Having a Mystic Archive and unlocking a Mystic Archive were two different matters. Only a handful of people were recorded to have a Mystic Archive throughout history. There were only two earliest verifiable individuals with documented works still in existence.The first was Hugo Gerant, a renowned physician from an ancient empire, a practitioner of Mystic Therapeutics, and an alchemist. His surviving medical works include The Hundred Letters, Gerant's Emergency Treatments, and the famous Embracing Simplicity.After his death, several notable physicians throughout history have inadvertently inherited his Mystic Archive, but none have fully inherited it. It was said that Mystics knew the method to obtain Gerant's Mystic Archive a thousand years ago, but that knowledge had since been lost.The second individual is Damian Lotin, a figure from another ancient dynasty. He left behind many works, including one titled The Whisper of the Blue Plant.Aside from them, other people who possess

    Chad gave them a cold smile. "Extract the immortal bone to cure the illness.""No! Absolutely not! I won't allow it!""Me neither. There's no way we can let that happen!"The entire room erupted into panic. Some even tried to attack Chad, but they were quickly subdued.Chad looked at them and said, "Then tell me the truth.""I'll speak! I failed my tribulation and fell from the celestial realm. I used to have nine crowns, but now I'm down to five...""And me! I also fell from the celestial realm after failing my tribulation. Now I only have three crowns...""I disguised myself as one of the wounded soldiers and was brought here. After losing all my cultivation, I've since regained two crowns!""I was brought back from the firmament by my husband. After we arrived here, I lost all my cultivation and never practiced again. We had a child later, and he was perfectly normal, but I never expected my grandson to..."As those people spoke, Zayan and Sir Holt were stunned! Those peopl

    "You know the cause of the illness?"Zayan was shocked, almost in disbelief."Do you realize this child is the same age as you? Even your master examined him but couldn't find the cause!"Chad nodded and said, "But I do know, and I have a bold theory—that the cause of autism in all these children might be the same..."As he spoke, some thoughts suddenly flashed through Chad's mind, shocking even him, leading him to say, "And I suspect this might be related to the increasing number of ability users and cultivators over the past century!""Really?!"Zayan grabbed Chad's arm, hardly believing what he was hearing.However, Chad spoke with firm conviction, "It's very likely true, but I need to see more children with autism.""Wait here; I'll make arrangements right away!"Soon, Chad and his group arrived at the largest hospital in Kennington, the Ninth Military District Hospital, and Xyder was also brought along. Chad saw hundreds of children with autism there!Before entering the
