Chapter 709 - Absurdity
"That's true." Jin Rou nodded and looked at the apple slices, "They have the properties of helping cultivator advance to the next level. The enlightenment will be depending on one's talent. But nevertheless, it will still be effective as ever."
Anxiu smiled and answered, "You're right. These apples are very valuable that even certain empires like Holy God and Soaring Immortal wanted to buy some in the past."
Because of the magical traits of the fruit, many were tempted to buy it. After all, stealing it wouldn't be possible, not even for God King. This place was so magical that it wouldn't be surprising to contain all types of treasures a person could go crazy for.
Anxiu paused for a moment before resuming, "But if you want some, I can give you a few."
It was a different story if Jin Rou wanted the fruits. After all, he could take it out by force with his power. Of course, Anxiu knew that Jin Rou wasn't that type of person. Thus, he's willing to give a few fruits to the other party.
"Then I'll gladly accept it." Jin Rou smiled. It was the magical apples they were talking about. How could Jin Rou decline? His subordinates in their universe could benefit from this.
"Please wait for a moment." After saying that, Anxiu stood up and flew above. Only five minutes passed, he already came back with different kinds of fruits having three pieces each of the kind, "These are the magical fruits of this place. Although it won't work on you because of your power level, it will help your people soar to greater heights."
Anxiu handed over the fruits and used a space sack to contain them. Then he remembered something and spoke, "The mango kind here is the most magical as it can increase one's talent up to the next level, depending on the receiver's perseverance. The grapes kind is something that should be consumed a bit piece per three hours. It can help the body be strengthened and stabilize one's mind. And for the rest, it can give enlightment to the receiver. Still, depending on one's talent will they receive an enlightment."
Jin Rou accepted the sack and understood everything Anxiu said, "Thank you for this."
"No need to mention it." Anxiu waved his hand off and smirked, "This is what you deserve for saving our world. You might not be from here, but you still saved us here. Honestly, these amounts of fruits aren't enough to repay your contribution."
"I just did it for the sake of my master." Jin Rou smiled, "This is your world and it's probably my last time coming here. So do take care of it. If you need help, you can ask the Phoenix Empire for it. Just use my name and they'll happily lend you a hand."
Currently, the Phoenix Empire was all time high, the hot and shining sun above the sky while the powerhouses which antagonized them were suffering doom and despair. Many representatives of other kingdoms and empires tried to get an appointment from the Phoenix Empire yet they weren't entertained.
"I'll do it if I need it." Anxiu shook his head. He wasn't the type to ask for help. He managed Ends alone for countless of years and his power was top notch. No one knew how powerful was he but Jin Rou knew that God King wouldn't be a match against this person even together with Bloodflaw and Noah working together.
"Then you do it." Jin Rou smiled and stood up, "We'll be leaving now, we cannot impose on you any further."
Jin Rou had seen enough and was very satisfied with the result. Right now, he just wanted to settle things for Athena and go back home. It was a tiring trip and Jin Rou wanted to rest it now. He had seen enough of the worlds, he adventured enough and it's time to take a rest.
"Then I won't stop you, I hope you have safe travels." Anxiu smiled and stretched his hand to the front, "It's nice meeting you in person, Your Majesty."
Jin Rou accepted the handshake and chuckled, "It's nice meeting you, too."
And after that brief exchange, Jin Rou and Athena disappeared in this world for good.
Although Jin Rou was already gone, his deeds would be written in the official records of the world, calling him 'The Fate Savior'.

"Congratulations, you have succeeded once again." A familiar voice rang in his ears when he stepped on this plain, "Not just that, you surpassed my expectations once again. Truly befitting of someone I acknowledge."
"Shall we discuss my reward now, then?" Jin Rou cut to the chase, "You see, I have experienced a lot of dangers there compared to Immortal so I need to get my reward now, the deserving reward."
"Haha! Sure sure." The sphere giggled and said, "Speak, what do you want as the reward?"
Jin Rou smirked and answered immediately, "I want a power to challenge you."
Silence ensued after Jin Ruo spoke his words. Athena looked at Jin Rou with widened eyes. As she observed, she knew that Jin Rou was speaking to the highest entity of this cosmos, the true ruler of all. Jin Rou just dared to ask something outrageous like this!
"You want a power to challenge me?" After a long silence, the sphere spoke clearly. It heard so many requests, greedy and absurd ones, yet it didn't encounter this absurdity in the past!
A power to challenge it, the Creator? It was the first time that was heard!
"You heard me clearly. I want a power to challenge someone of your level." Jin Rou spoke. He didn't change his mind or whatsoever.
"Do you know what you're asking of?" The Creator wasn't happy or angry with this. It just felt a bit annoyance because of it, "The power of a Cosmos Existence, do you know what it implicates?"
"I don't know. However, I want that power.." Jin Rou shrugged his shoulder, "Why, you can't give it to me despite you being a god of this level? If that's the case, then I'll be very disappointed."
