Author: Two Ears is Bodhi
“You can’t! It’s too dangerous! Do remember that the Hulkeroic Union is actively searching for us now! With that in mind, you’ll surely get caught in no time if you go back to look for him!” replied Juno almost instantaneously.

“With all due respect, Miss Zorn, if he’s dead, then we won’t have the will to continue living anyway!” said Ray with a firm tone.

Before Juno could even reply, Ray and Nori had already bolted back, retracing their steps…

Seeing that, Juno could only sigh helplessly. Even so, she couldn’t deny that she was feeling slightly touched. Gerald truly had good and loyal friends…

Regardless, after searching for Gerald for a while, Ray and Nori eventually arrived at the cliff where Gerald leaped off from… And to their horror, they caught a glimpse of Gerald’s jade pendant lying on a stone nearby…!

Feeling her heart skip a beat, Nori remained silent for a moment before eventually feeling tears run down her cheeks…

“…No… It… It can’t be…!” mumbled Nori to herse

    “Also… where are we…?” asked Gerald when he realized that they were inside some kind of cave. Though the old man appeared ragged and sloppy, he knew for a fact that he wasn’t an ordinary person. After a brief silence, the old man replied in a raspy voice, “…I’m just someone who lives in seclusion on this mountain.” Upon hearing that, Gerald was slightly surprised. To think that someone would actually live in such a place! “…May I know your name…?” “You can just call me Old Hughes…” replied the man. Shortly after, Old Hughes led Gerlad out of the cave they were in… Looking at the sky, Gerald was greeted by the soothing sight of a crescent moon… Despite how calm the night was making him feel, upon realizing that they were about to enter a dense forest, Gerald was prompted to ask, “…Mind telling me where we’re going, Old Hughes…?” After all, with how dense the foliage was, they would surely be engulfed by darkness in there, and being in an unlit forest at night was a ver

    “What on earth is this…?” asked Gerald curiously. “…First off, this place is called Fishgut Cave, and sealed within this stone pillar, is an ancient longsword known as the Fishgut Sword,” explained Old Hughes as he looked at Gerald. “…The… Fishgut Sword?” asked Gerald, puzzled to hear such an odd name for a longsword. Following that, Old Hughes retrieved a rolled-up parchment from under his coat. Unrolling it before Gerald, the first image the youth saw was of a handsome, strong man as well as an elderly-looking one standing together in a place that looked strikingly similar to where they currently were… Needless to say, it was depicting both of them in Fishgut Cave! “…That’s… us?” asked Gerald, fully confused now. Slowly revealing a wry smile, Hughes then replied “Bingo. It shows both of us standing at this exact spot… You know, when I first found this parchment here and saw its contents, I knew I was destined to lead someone here… And here you are, at long last!” Naturall

    It didn’t take long before the streams of water wrapped themselves around Gerald’s hand. With the water itself being translucent, Gerald was only able to make out the vague outline of his hand by this point… Without warning, the duo was then greeted by an explosive sound from behind them! Following that, both of them were just in time to witness the Fishgut Sword flying out from the pillar! It was also then when Gerald realized that the streams of water had already retracted... Regardless, his train of thought was cut short when he heard Old Hughes calling out, “Get the sword, Gerald!” Upon hearing that, Gerald turned to look at the old man before heading over to retrieve the sword… The second he grabbed onto it, a surge of power rushed from the sword and into his body. As the immense power spread from his palm before spreading throughout his body, Gerald could feel a slightly familiar unease in his elixir-of-life field… With so much power overflowing within his elixir-of-l

    “Speaking of which… Do you know the names of the nine other ancient holy swords? Do you know where they are? I’d like to obtain them!” said Gerald, clearly interested in the swords. After all, now that he already had one of them, there was no reason for him not to get the other nine. “Hmm? Well, if you’re interested, the first sword goes by Xyan, the Sword of Divinity. As for the second and third ones, they’re Xyan, the Sword of Benevolence, and Xenith, the Sword of Sovereignty… Empyrean was the fourth sword, I believe, and it’s the Sword of Might. The Sword of Nobility, on the other hand, is Titan, which is also the fifth sword.” “As for swords six and seven, both of them are the Swords of Love, Gwaine and Morgen. The eighth sword is the one you’re currently wielding, Fishgut, the Sword of Courage. If I remember correctly, the ninth one is called Jochem, the Sword of Solitary, and as for the final sword, it goes by the name of Charmella, the Sword of Elegance!” “Each of the swor

    “…Miss Zorn? Is that you?” asked Gerald as he faced the trees. “…Gerald? So, it really is you!” exclaimed Juno in excitement as she quickly walked out from the trees together with her servants. “What brings you here, Miss Zorn?” asked the surprised Gerald as he looked at her. “What do you mean what brings us here? You’ve been gone for two days! Still, I knew you were still alive! I’m just glad I finally managed to locate you! Regardless, what are you doing all the way out here?” Upon hearing Juno’s question, Gerald momentarily turned to look at Old Hughes before awkwardly replying, “…About that… Let’s just talk about it once we get back. Speaking of which, how are the rest doing?” “Don’t worry, all of them are doing fine. They’re currently resting up in the Zorn family’s residence!” replied Juno with a smile as Gerald heaved a sigh of relief. “Now then… Who is he again…?” asked Juno as she raised a slight brow while looking at Old Hughes. Looking at the old man for a whil

    “Heh! But of course! Still, you really do have immense foresight, Master Hughes… Everything happened just as you’ve predicted!” “Hah! It was Tiger who first betrayed me, so he only has himself to blame for me being unkind! I’ll definitely take over the Hulkeroic Union by the end of all this!” sneered Old Hughes as he smiled smugly, his eyes filled with determination. “Indeed! Speaking of which, what about Gerald and the others? Do you need me to finish them off?” asked the shadowy figure. Raising his palm, Old Hughes then said, “Leave them be for now. After all, Gerald and his party are still useful to us. Besides, since the Fishgut Sword is now in his hands, we should at least wait for him to kill Tiger for us first before anything else.” “As you wish, Master Hughes!” replied the shadowy figure with a respectful nod… Naturally, Gerald had no idea that the shadowy figure and Old Hughes were in cahoots… Regardless, both Gerald and Juno soon arrived at the Zorn family’s resid

    Meanwhile, Old Hughes could be seen leading the shadowy figure and a few men across a mountain range that was surrounded by flames. With lava and fire everywhere, it made the mountain not only feel hot, but also rather intimidating… The group was here to help the shadowy figure obtain the Sword of Might, which—just like the Fishgut Sword which was also born in the same generation—was an ancient weapon. While such swords had restrictions as to who was able to wield them, if the sword deemed the user worthy, then the wielder would be granted the sword’s powers, and each sword naturally had different powers. Regardless, now that the Fishgut Sword was in Gerald’s hands, it was the shadowy figure’s turn to obtain his own sword. Upon obtaining the Sword of Might, he would undoubtedly be strong and confident enough to overtake Dragonblood City… Soon enough, they arrived at a cave… and upon entering, everyone was able to see vein-like streams of lava creeping all over the cave’s walls.

    To the shadowy figure, owning the Titan Sword essentially meant that he had just obtained immeasurable power. Due to the Sword of Might’s ability to completely melt anyone it killed, not only would the shadowy figure now be able to kill in the blink of an eye, but no bones or blood of his victims would even remain! It truly was a terrifying item… Seeing that the shadowy figure had successfully wielded the sword, Old Hughes then walked up to him before saying, “Now that you’ve obtained the Sword of Might, you must remember to keep your promise of letting me be in charge of Dragonblood city after you’ve conquered it.” Naturally, Old Hughes hadn’t led the shadowy figure here with the goodness in his heart. The truth was, he had only done so just so that he could end up becoming the supreme leader of Dragonblood city once the shadowy figure obtained the sword’s power. As for why he had allowed Gerald to obtain the Fishgut Sword first, it was essentially so that the Titan Sword coul

    Watching in fury as his black air blade dissipated, Daryl roared, “W-what power…!” As Daryl was too shocked to move, Gerald took the chance to yell, “Attack…!” And just like that, a blazing light momentarily lit the entire sky…! As surges of energy shot out in all directions, Daryl’s devilish formation was reduced to dust in a matter of seconds! “No…!” howled the anguished Daryl as the earth beneath him cracked and clouds of dust flew everywhere! It was chaos incarnate… yet moments later, everything fell deathly silent. Gerald himself had already vomited a pool of blood by now, and as he fell unconscious, he could feel his body freezing up… Fast forward to three years later, Mayberry Commercial Street was as lively as ever… “Darling, it’s your brother’s wedding day today… Shouldn’t we head over earlier? You’ve been dolling yourself up for ages!” “Fine, dad… Though, isn’t Second Uncle already there to help set things up? That aside, my brother’s gone through so many hardsh

    ‘Daryl’s been possessed by the Supreme Devilish Lord for ages, and the lord himself has been using your grandfather’s body to attempt his resurrection! This cycle has been repeating for years, and the Supreme Devilish Lord has already captured many people with Yin physiques but thankfully failed! This grew so out of hand that the Soluna Deus Sect, or Sun League as you call them, have actively been trying to force the Supreme Devilish Lord to show himself!’ ‘In order to further deter the Supreme Devilish Lord’s efforts, they’ve even been kidnapping people with Yin physiques! Do you see the entire picture now, boy?’ explained Finnley. ‘…So that’s the truth… Then, how’s Mila?’ asked Gerald. ‘She’s fine, but your reunion depends on whether we can destroy him this time!’ replied one of the white-robed ladies. That was relieving to hear… Still, as it turned out, the Sun League weren’t villains at all! They had simply been abducting people like his second uncle, Mila, and Leo for the

    His chest felt like it was exploding, and it didn’t take long for blood to spurt out of his mouth. What immense devilish power…! Following a sneer, the Nirvadevil sect’s master scoffed, “I know you raised your cultivation level this high because you want to learn more about the Sun League, but you should understand that devilish cultivators will always be stronger! Did you really think that acquiring the angelic inheritance would give you absolute power? How laughable! Your Herculean Primordial Spirit won’t save you this time!” Furrowing his brows, Gerald retorted, “…Who on earth are you? How do you know me so well? In fact, how do you know about my Herculean Primordial Spirit?” Laughing in response, the master then said, “Oh, you’ll know who I am soon! But before that, allow me to snatch your Herculean Primordial Spirit! I need to destroy it so that the sacred Primordial Devilish Internal Pellet can reign supreme…!” Upon hearing that, Gerald couldn’t help but frown even more.

    “…This formation. It feels… familiar,” muttered Sanchez. “Same thought here. I think it’s the Septelic Perishment Formation of the ancient Black Dragon Sect!” replied Gerald. “Ah, no wonder it felt so familiar… Though, wasn’t this formation lost to time ages ago? How did you learn of it?” asked the surprised Sanchez. The formation had been a legendary one that, as Sanchez had said, had been lost at the end of the ancient era. Just from its name alone, one could imagine that this immensely powerful formation had been used against the people of the Deitus Realm. In the end, however, the allies of the Deitus Realm still managed to destroy the Black Dragon Sect, thus leading to the destruction of all the sect’s other mysterious and bizarre formations… Naturally, they had made sure to obliterate all of them to ensure that nobody in the future would be able to threaten them like that again in the future… Whatever the case was, Gerald was quick to reply, “I read about it somewhere.

    Upon hearing Gerald’s question, Lord Ethern was prompted to reveal a few samples of the herbs they were locating… and it wasn’t long before Gerald felt his eyes twitch. After all, those samples were herbs inherited by the ancient witches… In other words, they were the ones he was for as well! Naturally, Marcel recognized them as well, and he was quick to say, “…These…” Noticing how the two were looking at the herbs, Darkwind muttered, “…I take it that the herbalist they’re looking for really is Ms. Phoebe, Mr. Crawford?” “…Well, it’s hard to say if she is since Marcel already said that the timing wasn’t right… Regardless, this is an important clue. Lord Ethern, was it? Could you elaborate a bit more on your master?” muttered Gerald as he turned to face the man again. “I really can’t say…! Look, Master always appears before us in a shadowy form, so none of us have ever seen his face!” replied Lord Ethern while shaking his head. “…Is that the truth?” “I swear on my life!” exc

    “Flaxen, you bloody traitor…!” roared the three other lords who grew so angry that their faces went red!However, they had no time to remain angry since the Blancetnoir Double Lords and Sanchez had already made their move! As one would expect, it only took a single round for all three of the lords to crumble to the ground.With his eyes wide open, Lord Ethern stuttered, “Who… Who the hell are you people…?!”“You don’t need to know that information. That aside, tell us what you four are planning to do already,” scoffed Gerald as he slowly approached the three defeated men.“…Who the hell do you think you are? What makes you think I’ll comply so easily?” growled Lord Ethren.Upon hearing that, Gerald raised his hand… and within a split second, Lord Ethern let out a bone-chilling wail. The Blancetnoir Double Lords had just snapped both of the poor man’s arms!“If you want your other limbs intact, don’t make me repeat the question,” growled Gerald.Now terrified, the agonized man replied,

    From what Gerald could tell, all of them were devilish cultivators. After all, their auras were way different compared to regular cultivators like Gerald and demonic cultivators like Sanchez. Though he had read about devilish cultivators before in one of Uncle Zeman’s books, this was his first time actually coming across them. It was a while later when the frowning Sanchez muttered, “So, they want to ambush some herb lady… Is she the one we’re looking for?” Sanchez, for one, had pretty much been frowning throughout his journey with Gerald. His only hope at the moment was for Gerald to find the person he was looking for as soon as possible. Otherwise, who knew how long that boy would continue controlling his life! Regardless, Marcel was quick to add, “I had the same thought, Mr. Crawford. After all, Phoebe excels not only in pharmacology, but also in all sorts of special techniques and formations!” Watching as Gerald nodded, the Blancetnoir Double Lords couldn’t help but scoff,

    There were two straightforward purposes of the trip. The first was to find Phoebe, the descendant of the ancient witches. Only by finding her would Gerald have a chance to locate Daryl’s hideout… Hopefully the Yinblood pellet—that was now in his hands—would aid with that effort… As for the second goal, he was hoping to retrieve the inheritance according to the Zearl’s instructions. After all, he’d only stand a fighting chance against Daryl and the Soluna Sect after getting the inheritance. While it was true that Gerald’s cultivation level was currently one of the highest in all of the cultivation realm, the fact remained that Daryl practiced devilish cultivation, and those from the Soluna Deus Sect were already in the Deitus Realm. In other words, he was merely an ant to them, which was why he was making sure to fully prepare himself before confronting them. Though he now had Sanchez and the Blancetnoir Double Lords under his command, he still felt that he was underprepared… Re

    Now that all three of them had been subdued with the Nineraid Band, the other big shot cultivators couldn’t help but stare enviously at Gerald, knowing full well that they’d never be able to obtain his angelic artifacts. After all, if he could take down the Blancetnoir Double Lords and Sanchez, then what chance did they have? By this point, Sanchez had managed to get to his feet, albeit with quite a bit of difficulty. Naturally, he no longer dared to make any rash moves on Gerald. Instead, he was prompted to resentfully say, “You’re really something else, Gerald…! It makes me wonder why you still need our help. After all, not only are you the sole person who knows the secrets of the general’s tomb, but you also possess those angelic artifacts!” “Oh, don’t you worry about that. With how powerful you three are, I’m sure you’ll become indispensable assistants as we head to the North Desert in search of a certain someone!
