Chapter 386
'It's finally dead . '
Arthur stored the corpse in his storage and disappeared from that area, even the nearby old man who watched the whole fight, was startled as he suddenly lost track of Arthur .
No one would expect Arthur to transform into an insignificant sprout deep underground . He spent every last bit of effort to reduce his stats and reduce his presence . Not even the ancestor of the Mirage Era Hall discovered him, so it isn't surprising that the blind man couldn't find him .
Actually, Arthur didn't know that he was being watched, he only did that because the fight attracted too much attention . He could feel several gazes belonging to the elders of the Golden Earth Sect focus on him . They just didn't dare join the fight .
He didn't suffer any serious frontal attack but creating that Thunder Dragon and using the withering effect of the Death Magic exhausted him .
Fortunately, his recovery is abnormally high . Others would need a few days to a week to recover but half a day or less is more than enough for him .
The only thing that'll take a day to recover is his Mental Power . As he hid deep underground while possessing a plant, Arthur instructed the Tri-Spirit to drill the ground and create a concealed cave . The spirit did as told, it quickly transformed the rubbles and dirt into a suitable and neat room that was a kilometer underground . Enveloping this room was a jet black cube that blocked any external energy so unless someone personally drilled the ground from the surface and found this cube, they won't be able to feel its presence or locate Arthur .
Once he was sure he was absolutely safe . Arthur left the plant and sat cross-legged . His left hand shone with a bright light which traveled to all parts of his body, healing everything in just a few seconds . Exactly one minute later, his body was back to normal, without any sign of injuries .
Life Magic is the strongest Healing Magic, even better than Light Magic . However, it is extremely rare, in fact, only Angels and a few powers in the System Universe can use such a heavenly Magic .
Thanks to the Book of Eternity, Arthur can use Life Magic but he can't fully control it yet . After meditating for an hour or so, Arthur entered the ARK .
He ignored the sitting Claud and started testing his strength . His stats rose significantly as he reached the peak of God Realm .
"My stats are stronger than a God Monarch's so how come they can face me and not lose?"
Curious, Arthur asked the relaxed Claud . The Prophecy Holder tapped a white table as he was absent-minded . Only when Arthur's voice rang in his ears did he snap out of his daze and reply
"Pretty simple . God Monarchs or even Sovereigns can strengthen their body using Nether Energy . Of course, they won't be as durable as your body, which is strong even without the use of Energy . If your Dantian is destroyed, although you'll lose your cultivation and a bit of stats, you'll still be extremely strong . The God Monarch Realm is just the first step to acquire a Celestial Body . As for what celestial Bodies are, it's a body that transcends all the limits . Any Overgod will have a Celestial Bodies . Moreover, if one had a Physique, their celestial body will be much, much stronger than normal ones . That's why people with a Physique are looked favorably upon . "
As if he knew what Arthur is going to ask, Claud added:
"Yes, if you obtain a Celestial body then you'll be unrivaled amongst the Overgods . You won't even need to fear 'X' . However, reaching the Overgod Realm is easier said than done . After all, the number of Overgods in the Cloud Sea Universe isn't more than a hundred, or two, at most . "
…
A few miles away from the destroyed mountain, the blind man, shrouded in a strange grey fog, looked at the mountain peak, which existed no more, and sighed .
"I'm glad I didn't attack him back then . Such a valuable person shouldn't be provoked . "
The blind old man, Krauk, was certain that his boss will be more than pleased to hear about Arthur . Such monstrous strength, deadly attacks and Stealth skills, it was a suitable candidate for one of the three vacant chairs of Black Rose .
…
In the Imperial Capital, precisely in the crown prince's study, Isadore tapped his finger on the table as he read some documents that were delivered to him just a minute ago . A man in his thirties patiently waited for the prince to give his opinion and tell him what to do about this situation .
Wrath, who always accompanied the prince, was playing with a blood red dagger, uninterested about all the scattered papers .
After thoroughly reading everything, Isadore frowned and said
"The local snake is dead, the mountain is destroyed and the Golden Earth Sect is exposed . "
He paused and closed his eyes for a few seconds before resolutely saying
"It's time for a purge . Furthermore, send an investigation team, I want more information about the man who killed the snake!"
The middle-aged man, who was actually the minister of defense, bowed and hastily left the room .
The golden-haired young man glanced at Wrath and asked
"What do you think? A dragon made of white thunder and powerful Ice Magic . "
The dark-haired man stopped playing with his dagger and replied
"I think it's the Godly Thunder . It's been a long time since I've seen it . As far as I know, only one faction uses this type of Thunder and it hails from the Heaven and Hell Universe . "
"Do you think he came because of the Space Dragon?"
Before Wrath replied, Isadore shook his head and mumbled
"No no, that shouldn't be possible . Moreover, why would he bother killing the flame snake?"
After a short while, the crown prince chuckled and added:
"An interesting variable entered the game . "
He seriously stared at Wrath and warned him
"If you happen to meet this man in the future, no matter what happens, don't make an enemy out of him . "
He knew Wrath's rush character but he was loyal . Isadore was hesitating as he knew that this dark-haired man is a battle freak, nonetheless, he always listens to his orders .
…
Less than a day passed since the prince's team started investigation Arthur . Isadore listened to the report of a short young man as he flipped through several documents .
"His name is Arthur MoonStar . Apparently, he resided in the Mirage Era Hall for some time . The moment he arrived, the son of the Patriarch died of mysterious causes, however, Athard hired people from Black Rose to find the culprit . Silent Hand Krauk took the job and found the murderer, who is Arthur . Around a week ago, Arthur disappeared from the Mirage Era Hall Sect and it is rumored he traveled South . "
As he listened to the report, Isadore knitted his brow and asked
"Why didn't Krauk act?"
The young man, who investigated everything about Arthur, replied:
"Athard hired him to find the culprit, killing him isn't part of the job . Moreover, Arthur arrived to the capital accompanied by a woman, who disappeared and is nowhere to be found . "
"When did he arrive exactly?"
"28 days ago . He entered the capital with the silver-haired woman and Shu Ru . They went to Miss Losha's weapon shop . "
Isadore nodded his head and waved his hand, dismissing the young man and his comrades . The Crown Prince read the documents about Arthur again and again . Suddenly, he seemed to have figured something as he remembered what Wrath said .
Isadore glanced at the snoring middle-aged man not far away from him and smiled .
'They went to a blacksmith . Arthur didn't have his sword with him when he visited the Mirage Era Hall Sect, so it's probably being fixed by Losha . It's said that Losha Alpenwatcher has one of the nine Divine Swords . The Dark Blade and the Divine Sword are hostile to each other, which caused some friction . What Wrath felt is the outburst of Evil Wind! Nonetheless, the absence of Makaze confirms that the blacksmith and Arthur struck a deal . The mysterious woman who accompanied him is probably with Losha . But why did he go to the Mirage Era Hall and why travel far south just to kill a snake? It's contradictory to your previous actions, why would you purposely attract attention? What is your motive, Arthur MoonStar…'
